Chapter 1986
Not a Noble Consort 7
The remnant organization of the previous dynasty, which the emperor had tried so hard to find, suddenly appeared in front of Liu Dong and Liu Qingya and became their subordinates.
This is simply...
Liu Tong felt that this development was too dramatic.
He was absolutely certain that his eldest sister was not the female lead; she was most likely a villainous supporting character or something.
result……
Liu Qiu had no idea that this development was entirely due to the addition of him.
His good fortune protected Liu Qingya and her family, allowing Liu Qingya to break free from her fixed fate and enjoy good luck ever since.
Liu Qiu thought for a moment and asked Liu Qingya, "Eldest sister, do you want to become an empress?"
Since their dear cousin is stingy with the position of empress, they might as well earn the position of emperor themselves.
If your eldest sister has some interest in the emperor, you can ask your cousin to make her a concubine; then you can forget about becoming the emperor's consort.
Liu Qingya was taken aback by Liu Dong's question.
"W-what did you say?"
Liu Tong smiled: "If men can be emperors, why can't women? Didn't Wu Zetian become emperor too?"
"But...but..." Liu Qingya was somewhat tempted.
Liu Tong: "My father is the current prime minister, controlling half of the court's power. Now we have this power left over from the previous dynasty. As long as we plan carefully, we should be able to obtain the throne."
Liu Qingya was already madly in love, but she still had some concerns: "But what about my aunt and cousin..."
Liu Tong: "We're all family. We can just bestow a Duke title upon my cousin. If he finds true love, I can issue an imperial decree to grant them a marriage."
Liu Qingya gritted her teeth: "Let's do it!"
The siblings began to secretly plot, without involving Liu Huai and Liu Qingyu in their scheme.
At this stage, it's best for Liu Huai to know nothing.
As for Liu Qingyu, although this girl is gentle on the outside but strong on the inside and very smart, she likes a peaceful life and values relationships very much. She would never agree to them going against the Empress Dowager and the Emperor.
Liu Tong and Liu Qingya gathered intelligence on the current court and learned that the three princes harbored rebellious intentions.
The remnants of the previous dynasty also had people in the three kings' territories, and they sent the two men detailed intelligence.
The details of the struggle for the heir of the royal family in the southeast were delivered to Liu Dong and Liu Qingya.
The two exchanged a glance upon seeing the names of Nangong Fan and Nangong Yi.
Liu Qingya: "What are you thinking about?"
Liu Tong: "Whatever my sister thinks, I think too."
Liu Qingya: "I never expected that the person we saved was Nangong Yi."
Liu Tong complained, "These people really have the same naming style. Gong Yi, Gong Fan, Mu Ying, and our good cousin Fang Cheng."
Liu Qingya: "That Mu Ying is quite capable; her poetry skills are exceptional."
It's not that she's outstanding, it's that other poets and lyricists are outstanding.
She was just a porter.
Liu Tong: 'Our good cousin has already guessed Nangong Fan's identity; he'll probably use him as a springboard for his scheme.'
Liu Qingya scoffed, "They're rivals in love, aren't they? I just didn't expect our good brother to like a boisterous woman like Duanmu Ying."
Liu Tong: "Because he had seen so many well-mannered young ladies from respectable families, Duanmu Ying was a refreshing sight for him."
Liu Qingya: "Men!"
Liu Tong: "Princess Huaining probably doesn't know her fiancé has come to the capital, right? Should we send her a message?"
Liu Qingya: "Of course I want to! It would be best if she knew that her fiancé had fallen in love with his future sister-in-law."
Liu Tong and Liu Qingya plotted against Princess Huaining without a care in the world.
This princess has no blood relation to the Liu family. Princess Huaining was the youngest child of the late emperor and was greatly favored by him, so she was very spoiled.
When Liu Qingya was a child, she had various minor conflicts with Princess Huaining.
The emperor also doted on this younger sister.
Princess Huaining often spoke ill of Liu Qingya in front of the emperor, which caused the emperor's impression of Liu Qingya to worsen.
Liu Qingya therefore disliked Princess Huaining very much.
The Liu family has connections within the palace.
Although the majority of the power was in the hands of the Empress Dowager, there was still a small portion that Liu Huai did not hand over to her.
After Liu Qingya and Liu Tong decided to rebel, they sent more people into the palace and took back more than half of the people under the Empress Dowager's control.
The subordinates that the Empress Dowager thought were loyal to her actually all belonged to Liu Tong and Liu Qingya, and they only obeyed Liu Tong and Liu Qingya's orders.
There was no way around it; the Three Corpse Brain God Pill was simply too powerful.
The news quickly reached Princess Huaining's ears.
Princess Huaining had never met Nangong Fan and had not yet developed feelings for him.
But what belongs to her, she would rather destroy than give to others.
Princess Huaining originally wanted to get rid of the girl named Mu Ying, but after learning that her brother also liked Mu Ying, Princess Huaining decided to strongly advocate for Mu Ying and Dongfang Zeng to get together.
That way, you can get rid of your love rival.
Princess Huaining came to find Dongfang Zeng and begged him to leave the palace with her.
Princess Huaining: "If you have a girl you like, I can help you test her feelings, okay?"
These words struck a chord with the emperor.
Duanmu Ying kept her distance from him, making it impossible for him to determine her feelings.
Why not let Huaining go and test the waters?
The Emperor said, "Aying doesn't know my identity, so don't let it slip."
Huaining: "Then should I also adopt a fake name?"
The Emperor said, "Then you shall be called Fang Ning."
The brother and sister changed their clothes and left the palace to find Duanmu Ying.
Duanmu Ying was still dressed as a man. She knew that Dongfang Zeng and Nangong Fan must have seen through her identity, but since neither of them said anything, she pretended to be oblivious.
When Duanmu Ying saw Dongfang Zeng bringing a pretty girl over, her eyes darkened.
I should have realized it sooner; how could the emperor lack beautiful women?
Dongfang Zeng was happy to see Duanmu Ying and went to her side first: "Aying, it's been a few days. How are you? I brought someone for you to meet."
He introduced Huai Ning to Duanmu Ying: "This is my younger sister, Fang Ning. You can just call her Aning."
Upon hearing that it was her younger sister, Duanmu Ying's unhappiness disappeared, and she greeted Huaining with a smile.
Huaining wants to bring Duanmu Ying and Dongfang Zeng together, so naturally she has to please Duanmu Ying.
Children raised in the palace are very good at reading people and know how to please others.
Before long, Duanmu Ying was amused by Huai Ning and laughed happily.
Huaining initially felt a bit uncomfortable with Duanmu Ying, but after learning that Duanmu Ying was the head of the Poetry Pavilion of Qingyun Pavilion, that discomfort immediately vanished.
She admired Duanmu Ying from the bottom of her heart.
Huaining would savor the three poems written by Duanmu Ying every day.
She had imagined what the person who wrote these three poems looked like, but she never expected it to be a woman.
Huaining: "Aying, can you write a poem for me?"
Duanmu Ying: "Sure!" (End of Chapter)
