Quick Wear: Cannon Fodder She Wants to Be a Vicious Female Supporting Role
Chapter 54: Shield Queen (3)
Lan Xin didn't stand up to reply, but just nodded in her seat and said calmly, "Mother, I am listening."
Then she changed the subject, "However, mother, I do not hold the Phoenix Seal. Even if I want the emperor to treat everyone equally, I do not have the power to arrange for the concubines to sleep with me."
For a moment, everyone in the hall looked at Lan Xin in amazement.
He asked the Queen Mother for power so blatantly.
The Queen Mother was also stunned for a moment, then reacted, "I just want you to persuade the Emperor to be fair and just. Don't worry about anything else."
Lan Xin shook her head. "That won't do. Without the Phoenix Seal, I can't persuade him. How about you, Mother, go and persuade the Emperor yourself?"
The Left Prime Minister is now in power. In order to gain his trust, Lin Mo will, at least on the surface, still favor Lan Xin alone.
The Queen Mother knew this in her heart, so she started with Lan Xin and asked her to take the initiative to persuade the Emperor, so that the Left Prime Minister would not be able to say anything if he knew about it.
When the Queen Mother saw Lan Xin's refusal, she flew into a rage, "Queen, how insolent! You did whatever I asked you to do, and yet you dare to put conditions on me."
Lan Xin stood up. "Is it presumptuous of the Queen to ask to be in charge of the Phoenix Seal? Does Queen Mother dare to ask the ministers to judge the matter?"
Lan Xin has the support of her father, the Left Prime Minister, behind her, so she is not afraid of this old witch getting angry.
"Since the Queen Mother has nothing to say, then it is settled."
Seeing that the Queen Mother was choked and speechless, Lan Xin straightened her clothes in a good mood and prepared to turn around and leave.
The Queen Mother stared at her back. Seeing that she was about to step out of the gate of Ci'an Palace, she opened her mouth to stop her, "Wait!"
"I can give you the Phoenix Seal, but there are three unfilial acts, and having no heir is the worst. The emperor's offspring is even more important. So, whether it's you or another concubine, I must see someone pregnant in the palace within three months."
The Queen Mother finally compromised. After all, at this time, the power of the Left Prime Minister in the court could not be underestimated, and the ministers would naturally speak on Lan Xin's side.
Her conflict with Lan Xin now will not be conducive to the emperor's consolidation of the power of the Left Prime Minister. She should remember that in the future, when the Left Prime Minister's power is stripped away, she will see how she will deal with Lan Xin.
"Mammy, go to the inner room and bring the Phoenix Seal to the Queen."
The Queen Mother turned her head and ordered the personal maid standing beside her to bring out the box containing the Phoenix Seal.
Lan Xin glanced at her personal maid He Hua beside her. He Hua understood, and even though she was trembling with fear at the moment, she still stepped forward and took the box containing the phoenix seal.
When the Queen Mother saw Lan Xin take the Phoenix Seal, she said somewhat unwillingly, "Queen, you have never held the Phoenix Seal before. I will arrange for an aunt to teach you."
"unnecessary!"
Lan Xin refused without thinking. She didn't want someone to tell her what to do.
Lan Xin achieved her goal, and without caring about the stunned concubines and dissatisfied empress dowager behind her, she strode out of the Ci'an Palace.
The Queen Mother frowned as she looked at the stunned concubines below, "All of you please leave."
The concubines left Ci'an Palace as instructed.
The nanny beside the Queen Mother saw that the concubines had all left the hall, so she approached the Queen Mother and whispered, "My Lord, will there be any problems with the Queen holding the Phoenix Seal?"
Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother said calmly, "It would be better if something goes wrong. That way, even if I take back the Phoenix Seal, no one will say anything."
The ministers in the court, especially those from the Left Prime Minister's faction, were already very dissatisfied with the fact that she, the empress dowager, was in charge of the Phoenix Seal. If Lan Xin was unable to hold the Phoenix Seal this time, she would take it back and shut up the ministers.
