Chapter 394: Going around in circles and winning over allies
"What kind of poetry collection is this? Is it worthy for the emperor to bring it here personally?"
Fu Cha Zhixi took the collection of poems and asked with some confusion.
When I took a closer look, I saw three big words "Qian Mingshi" written on it. I was shocked. It seemed that the plot of Zhen Huan leaving the palace was about to begin.
After Fu Cha Zhixi briefly flipped through it, he couldn't help but frown and spoke.
"Your Majesty, what is this? It is too flattering. I don't like this kind of thing."
"You don't like it?"
The emperor looked at Fu Cha Zhixi with some surprise.
He thought that his Xier would have the same attitude as Zhen Huan, but he didn't expect that his Xier and I would have such a tacit understanding and both disliked this collection of poems.
"Does the emperor like this collection of poems very much?"
Fu Cha Zhixi pretended to be confused and looked at the emperor and asked.
"Of course I don't like it."
The emperor shook his head and recounted the origin of this collection of poems.
"How do you think I should deal with Qian Mingshi?"
"Your Majesty, the harem is not allowed to interfere in government affairs. I don't want to be known as a witch who brings disaster to the country and the people."
Fu Cha Zhixi looked at the emperor with a smile, but her words were full of rejection.
She would never interfere in state affairs because she had a son. If the emperor became suspicious and worried that she would rule the country from behind the scenes in the future, it would be bad if he took her away in one go.
"How could it be? This matter is known to heaven, earth, you, and me. No third person will ever know about it."
"Besides, I am a little hesitant, so I just want to hear your opinion. As for the decision, it is naturally my business."
But the emperor refused to let it go easily; he had to get an answer that satisfied him.
"I don't understand these things. Anyway, I hate people who are servile and fawning, let alone people who flatter and curry favor with Yun?, who is a traitor."
Fu Cha Zhixi thought about it and just expressed his own opinion without proposing any decision. This way, the emperor would not bring trouble to him later.
"You are right. I also don't like this person's fawning attitude."
The emperor nodded with satisfaction, and he agreed with Fu Cha Zhixi's answer.
"Then do you think my punishment is too harsh?"
"I don't understand these things. Without a standard, I naturally can't tell whether it is strict or not. After all, what is strict and what is not strict?"
"Beheading a traitor is not too harsh, but beheading a petty thief is too harsh."
"So whether it is severe or not depends mainly on how the emperor determines the standard of severity and how serious the matter is in the emperor's mind. I don't understand these, so I won't speak carelessly."
Fu Cha Zhixi couldn't help but silently complain in her heart that the dog emperor had suffered a loss at the hands of Zhen Huan, and now he wanted to make up for it with her. It was really disgusting.
However, no matter how the other party asked, she must never express her clear opinion. In the end, she just had to listen to the emperor, and there would be nothing wrong with that.
"What you said is quite interesting."
"If I think this matter is serious enough, I can punish the other party in this way, but what if others don't think so?"
The emperor nodded. He found Fu Cha Zhixi's remarks somewhat new, but he agreed with them in his heart.
"Your Majesty is the ruler of a country, the father of all the people, the teacher of heaven and earth, so naturally, your opinion is the most important."
Fu Cha Zhixi carefully considered every word he said in his mind to ensure that there would not be any deviation.
After all, serving the king is like serving a tiger. If you slack off even a little, you will likely fall into the endless abyss.
Zhen Huan is a living example. She would never allow herself to follow in the other person's footsteps.
"Sure enough, among all the concubines in the harem, only Xi'er understands my thoughts the best."
The emperor embraced Fu Cha Zhixi in his arms with satisfaction, and once again sighed that his Xier was indeed the woman who understood him best besides Chun Yuan.
My affection for her is not in vain, she can really understand my thoughts.
Here, Zhen Huan was happily preparing for the enthronement ceremony, and everyone in Shuiyuxuan was pleasantly surprised.
They had no idea that a huge conspiracy was gradually approaching them.
Fu Cha Zhixi always kept an eye on the Queen's little moves. Previously, the people left behind by Concubine Guo discovered that the Queen had tampered with Zhen Huan's auspicious clothes, and they reported it to Fu Cha Zhixi immediately.
Upon hearing this, Fu Cha Zhixi silently put down the teacup in his hand, thinking to himself that it seemed like it was time for the big show about Chun Yuan's old clothes to begin.
Naturally, she would not try to stop Zhen Huan from falling into the trap. After all, only in this way could she truly hate the Queen and see how cruel and ruthless the Emperor was.
If she had helped Zhen Huan to be on guard in advance, the other party might not have realized how cruel the Queen's methods were, and Zhen Huan would not have hated the Queen so much.
Anyway, Zhen Huan is already pregnant with Longyue. As long as she waits until Zhen Huan is determined to leave the palace, she will appear and transfer Zhen Huan's hatred to the Queen, and save Zhen's father at the same time. The other party will definitely help her willingly deal with the Queen.
At that time, she wouldn't have to do anything, because Zhen Huan and Nian Shilan would rush up and tear the queen to pieces.
All I have to do is wait until it's over and then wait patiently to become the successor.
Here, Zhen Huan and her companions also discovered the corruption on the wedding dresses and became extremely anxious.
But in such a hurry, he fell into the queen's trap.
As soon as the emperor went out, the person he saw through the hazy gauze curtain was Zhen Huan wearing Chun Yuan's old clothes.
The emperor frowned. He thought he saw Chun Yuan, but when he lifted the gauze curtain, the person he saw was Zhen Huan.
Such a gap made the emperor wake up from his dream, and he felt strongly deceived.
For a moment, a nameless anger surged in his heart. He subconsciously thought that Zhen Huan knew that he was using her as a substitute, and even wanted to use Chun Yuan to gain favor for herself.
He can let Zhen Huan be a substitute, but Zhen Huan cannot use Chun Yuan to make profits for herself, which he thinks is a crime of deceiving the emperor.
A variety of emotions piled up together, making the emperor angrily question Zhen Huan, who looked innocent.
"Where did you get this dress?"
Zhen Huan was a little confused, but her subconscious told her that the emperor was angry.
So Zhen Huan subconsciously knelt in front of the emperor, trying to find out what the emperor was angry about.
"presumptuous!"
Zhen Huan's silence made the emperor believe that he had guessed correctly. Zhen Huan deliberately wore this old dress of Queen Chun Yuan to please him.
The Queen came out at this time and looked at Zhen Huan who was kneeling on the ground with great surprise.
"How could this happen? Why are you wearing this dress, Princess Wan?"
