Female supremacy: The evil woman only wants to ascend the throne
Chapter 281: Playing the cards
"Mother Queen, I am truly wronged! I did some foolish things before, but everyone knows what happened. I swear to heaven that I have absolutely no intention of murdering the princess!"
Wan Qingyan cried sadly, her voice choked with sobs, tears welling up in her eyes. She knelt heavily on the ground with a "thump", and her knees made a dull sound when they hit the ground.
Immediately, she raised her head and looked straight at the empress, her eyes filled with endless grievances and deep resentment. Strictly speaking, this matter was not her doing at all. She was just cleaning up the mess on behalf of the wanton original owner!
The empress looked at Wan Qingyan, who was kneeling on the ground and crying out for justice. After a moment of silence, she finally spoke, "Xiao Wu, quickly stand up. If I didn't believe you, why would I summon you alone at this moment?"
As she spoke, the empress waved towards Wan Qingyan, motioning her to come forward and get closer!
When Wan Qingyan heard the empress's words, the heavy stone that had been hanging in her heart fell to the ground. She had passed this hurdle without any danger. Thinking of this, she hurriedly walked to the side of the empress, prepared herself and adjusted her mood, and then, like a wounded deer, she suddenly threw herself into the empress's arms!
She snuggled up to the empress, her body trembling slightly, and she burst into tears in grievance!
At this moment, the empress reached out her hand with a smile, gently patted Wan Qingyan's head, and asked in a tone that seemed nonchalant but actually concealed a hidden meaning: "Xiao Wu, do you have the intention to seize the throne? Do you want to be the emperor's daughter?"
When Wan Qingyan suddenly heard such a deadly question, all the hairs on her body stood up. She had never expected that the empress would bring up such a sharp and sensitive topic at this moment!
After all, she was not yet ready to tear her face with the empress and openly confront her. If she gave a bad answer, it would be a big trouble. For a while, she could only respond in silence.
"Xiao Wu, why don't you answer? Do you really mean it?"
The empress stared at Wan Qingyan sharply, and when she saw that she did not respond immediately, she couldn't help but smile slightly, but there was a hint of heart-pounding chill in her smile!
Wan Qingyan met the empress's all-seeing gaze, took a deep breath, and said solemnly and firmly, "Mother Queen, please listen to your daughter!
My daughter has never thought about competing for the throne or becoming an imperial princess. I don't have such extravagant hopes. My daughter only wants to do her best to serve the court, share the worries of the queen mother, and do something truly useful! "
After she finished speaking, she seemed to turn back into a cute and innocent child. She opened her arms without hesitation and hugged the empress's waist tightly.
The Empress was slightly startled, then chuckled and said, "Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu, why are you so hypocritical? Do you think you can deceive me with such words? Even if you can deceive me for a while, do you think you can deceive yourself as well?
If you really want to ascend to the throne of the Princess, it's not completely hopeless. However, with your current strength, you are still far from it. So continue to work hard. I look forward to seeing your future transformation! "
The empress exposed Wan Qingyan's lies and made her attitude clear. She was extremely disappointed with Wan Qingjiao, but it was not time to completely abolish her status as a princess.
So, she simply encouraged Wan Qingyan directly. Now, in her mind, only those who are truly capable are qualified to be the princess!
Wan Qingyan was originally shaking her body coquettishly and acting cute to the empress, but suddenly when she heard the empress's words, she froze and her body instantly became tense. She widened her eyes, her heart full of confusion and uneasiness.
She couldn't tell now whether what the empress had just said was from the heart or a test for her. This was not a question that could be answered casually!
Just as Wan Qingyan was lost in thought, the system suddenly appeared. It sensed her inner turmoil and quickly said, "Host, in my opinion, the Empress' words are absolutely sincere!
You are becoming more and more outstanding, while Wan Qingjiao is becoming more and more stupid. The Empress must have seen this and will consider it. She will not joke with the entire country! So, I think you should trust her! "
After saying this, the system quietly waited for Wan Qingyan's reaction. It was unsure whether the suggestion it gave would be adopted, but at least it was doing its part, as long as it could help, even if it was only a little bit!
Wan Qingyan was originally still confused and couldn't make sense of the situation, but when she heard the system's words, it was like an epiphany, and she suddenly became clear!
Wan Qingyan was thinking to himself at this moment, no matter whether the empress's words were sincere or insincere, at least she had put this crucial issue frankly on the table, and this alone was enough!
Thinking of this, Wan Qingyan no longer hesitated. She quickly broke free from the empress's warm embrace and responded respectfully, "Queen Mother, please rest assured. I will do my best to complete everything I do. I will never slack off, and I will not let you down!"
After hearing Wan Qingyan's unwavering statement, the empress nodded slightly to express her satisfaction. Her deep and majestic eyes stared intently at Wan Qingyan in front of her.
At this moment, Wan Qingyan's face was full of determination, as if he was ready to face all challenges and difficulties!
Seeing Wan Qingyan like this, the empress couldn't help but raise the corner of her mouth. A faint smile quietly appeared on her face, and a hint of admiration flashed in her eyes.
"Xiao Wu, please step aside first. This matter is over. I will handle the follow-up. You continue to handle the affairs of the Ministry of Revenue. After a while, I will send you to Youzhou!"
The empress smiled and patted Wan Qingyan's shoulder, giving her some reassurance first, then changed the subject and told her to prepare to go to Youzhou!
When Wan Qingyan heard that she was going to Youzhou, she suddenly felt sleepy and someone gave her a pillow. She was originally planning to go to Youzhou, but she didn't expect that the empress would suddenly send her on a business trip. This was great, she could go to Youzhou to see how Qiu Lian was doing!
"Yes, Queen Mother, your daughter will withdraw first!"
Wan Qingyan bowed respectfully and retreated. As soon as she walked out of the palace gate, she met Wan Qingyu.
"Fifth sister, fifth sister, are you okay? What did the Queen Mother say? Is she going to punish you? I was so worried!"
