Never divorce, never stop getting rich

The book "The Empress of the Prosperous Times" tells the story of how the Empress of Tang Kingdom went from being an innocent little girl in the Wen family to becoming a victim of the royal game.

Then he embarked on a cruel road full of intrigue, blood, pain, and death, and finally cut through this bloody road and stood at the pinnacle of power.

Naturally, this empress spent most of her life surrounded by supporting characters.

The others may just be passers-by, but the two on the field are definitely the most tenacious supporting characters in this book. They fought with the empress from youth to middle age.

Even at the end of the book, it still adds luster to the empress's wonderful life.

This made Qian Qiansui wonder for a moment whether the empress kept these two people around just to entertain herself, otherwise why didn't she just find an opportunity to kill them.

The eldest princess is the sister of the late emperor. When she was young, she looked down on the late emperor because he was born out of wedlock, and she also did not get along with the empress. She has a proud and twisted personality, great ambitions and cruel means. Unfortunately, she has always had bad luck.

Later, the late emperor took advantage of the situation and ascended the throne. The relationship between the brother and sister improved, and they began to work together to deal with the empress.

Not only that, the late emperor was mentally ill before he died. Not only did he secretly send people to assassinate the empress, he even handed over the national treasury to his sister.

This caused the empress to be stretched to the limit after she ascended the throne, and she has not recovered yet.

As for Qian Qiansui, the charming Mary Sue grandma, she looks cold and noble, but she is actually the most pragmatic.

Not only did she keep a group of Tang Kingdom's dignitaries hanging, even the late emperor regarded her as his white moonlight. Otherwise, with Fu Zichan's identity as the son of the former crown prince, it would be strange for him to bring the concubine out, and he would have been killed long ago.

A stumbling block on the road to success, a fuse for the breakdown of a marriage, wow ~ no short video or short drama can be as good as this.

"Get out of the way, everyone, I want to see the Grand Princess!"

There was a sudden noise outside the pavilion. When many women in the pavilion heard the young man's voice, they couldn't help but get nervous. Some conservative girls had already hidden aside to avoid it.

Which old man, tired of living, wants to get himself killed? Qian Qiansui didn't even bother to finish her meal, craning her neck to look outside. After all, she was already married, so it would be a shame not to watch the excitement.

The people outside should not be able to stop him, as the young man rushed in. He was wearing a festive red dress, his face was as white as jade, his eyes were as bright as stars, and he had a good appearance, but his face was full of hostility and his rebellious attitude showed that he was not a good person.

Seeing the young man, the mistress of the Wen family could no longer sit still. While the old ancestor was still angry, she quickly walked up to the young man and tried to coax him out.

It's a pity that the young man was so spoiled that he couldn't obey at this moment. He shook off the Wen family's eldest lady and looked up at the eldest princess and said:

"Wen Siqin pays his respects to the Grand Princess. I've come here specifically to ask Her Highness, Princess Qingping...whether she will be here today?"

Seeing the young man trying to suppress his shame, the Grand Princess felt contempt for him. She turned to the Empress and said, "The Wen family is a good family, and their children are well-educated, so lively and straightforward."

The empress glanced over lightly, and the eldest lady of the Wen family was so frightened that she didn't care about anything else and directly asked the servants to come and kidnap the person.

"Don't scare the child." The eldest princess waved her golden fan and her smile gradually disappeared.

The condescending gaze made Wen Sitan want to retreat, "Qingping is not feeling well today, I'm afraid he can't come."

Wen Siqin suppressed his panic and secretly glanced at his aunt, the Empress. He closed his eyes and said impulsively, "Is the princess unwell, or does the Grand Princess not want her to have any contact with me?"

Everyone present was in an uproar, and the few people who were close together began to chirp quietly.

Qian Qiansui was no exception. He went into the homes of several lower-ranking nobles and listened to the youthful pains of Wen Siqin and the Princess Qingping. He had already begun to imagine the Tangguo version of Romeo and Juliet in his mind.

"Hehe...hahahahahaha..." The eldest princess covered her mouth with her golden fan and couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Why do you think it's me who's forbidding you from interacting with each other, rather than Qingping being unwilling to interact with you?"

"I……"

Wen Siqin was speechless for a moment.

"You are neither good at literature nor martial arts, and you spend your days playing with cats and walking dogs in the capital without making any progress. Apart from being the nephew of His Majesty, what else is there to make you worthy of others' attention?

"Qingping, aside from the others, is full of talent and has been intelligent since childhood. How many books have you read? My Qingping has read most of the books in the Taiji Pavilion."

The Grand Princess pointed her golden fan at Wen Siqin and asked, "Do you think Qingping would like you for being stupid, or for being unlearned?"

"This... Your Highness has gone too far." The mistress of the Wen family, who was also Wen Siqin's biological mother, was holding her son in her arms, feeling aggrieved, and could not help but ask the empress for help.

The empress was as steady as a rock, as if the Grand Princess disliked not her nephew but some insignificant passerby.

"Si Qin, remember today." This was all she said about the matter.

Wen Siqin looked ashen, as if he had been badly hit. The servants in his house hurried over to support him and he quickly left the banquet with the women.

After seeing everyone leave, the eldest princess seemed to be still reluctant to leave. She glanced at the empress and then at the concubine who was sitting not far away.

Her eyes rolled as she said, "We are so young. Back then, we were about the same age. The Dowager Concubine and the late Emperor were childhood sweethearts. If it weren't for some strange coincidence, the Dowager Concubine would probably be my sister-in-law."

The banquet, which had been lively just a moment ago, suddenly became cold as ice, and everyone around Qian Qiansui shut up.

This is taboo.

But others don't know the inside story, Qian Qiansui understands it very well. If the late emperor's father hadn't wanted to play a check and balance game, the empress would never have married the late emperor.

The heroine and the hero are a perfect match. The late emperor and the empress are both victims. Besides, even if the empress does not marry the late emperor, her mother-in-law who appears to dislike worldly things will not marry the late emperor who was born out of wedlock and has no competitiveness for the throne.

To put it bluntly, childhood sweethearts are not as wealthy and powerful as the crown prince. This foolish late emperor was deceived by the concubine and used to death.

So, none of these three women is easy to deal with.

"They are all childhood memories, no need to mention them again." In response to the repeated provocations from the eldest princess, the concubine avoided talking about it, as if she had long been away from the world.

"That's true. After all, your husband..." The eldest princess stopped there and smiled meaningfully.

The former prince is not dead.

"Have you finished talking?" The empress asked without waiting for her to reply, and said directly: "Then let's start the meal."

"Don't be anxious. It's Madam Wen's 80th birthday, which is a happy occasion. I thought it would be better to present your birthday gifts to me so that I can have a look." The eldest princess hasn't finished watching the show yet.

What? Present a birthday gift? Qian Qiansui's heart was about to explode. If she presented her birthday gift, wouldn't it be equivalent to social death?
