Chapter 426: Cooperation reached?
Chapter 426: Cooperation reached?
He was probably really a little sad. Tomorrow he would set off for Beijing. Tonight, Xie Yu did not stay in Lin Junxue's yard. He had dinner and then left.
The moon is dim
Lin Junxue brought Danzhen to the ancient tree again, where someone had been waiting for a long time.
Lin Junxue walked under the ancient tree, looked at the red silk that had just been hung up, and then looked away.
Qin Shushu spoke
"Empress, Nanny Wu is dead. From now on, the Queen Mother is like a tiger without claws and fangs. Why don't you cooperate with me and the concubines to overthrow the Queen Mother? Once the Queen Mother dies, the harem will be completely under your control."
Qin Shushu stared into Lin Junxue's eyes.
This incident made her understand it even more clearly.
If there is one person in this world who can bring down the Queen Mother and help her avenge the loss of her son, only the Queen in front of him can do it.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for her to get revenge on her own, so she could only beg the queen for cooperation.
Lin Junxue lowered her eyebrows, turned sideways, and smiled
"Cooperation? Shu Wanrong, between you and me, the word cooperation, you are overestimating yourself."
Lin Junxue would never trust Qin Shushu as someone close to her.
Qin Shushu and Yuyan’s poems are different. Ultimately, she is trying to avenge the loss of her son.
Their cooperation this time is just for their own benefit and needs, without any sincerity.
Therefore, even if they really want to overthrow the Queen Mother together, the initiative must be in her hands.
Qin Shushu's face turned pale and she stopped talking.
Lin Junxue was not in a hurry. She walked forward, picked up the red silk on the table, and tied it to the tree herself.
Unlike the wishes of the world written on the red silk covering the tree, Lin Junxue did not write anything.
The night is cool
The wind in early March is still a bit chilly and bitingly cold.
Lin Junxue stood there, her figure slender and tall
Qin Shushu opened her mouth and asked the questions in her mind.
"Empress, you hung up this empty red ribbon without writing anything on it. Don't you have anything you want that you cannot obtain? Why is that?"
Lin Junxue looked at the fluttering red silk, turned around, looked at Qin Shushu, and smiled without saying a word.
For her, the wishes of this world cannot be obtained by asking for them, but they can be obtained by relying on oneself, which is the most reliable way.
Obviously seeing that Lin Junxue didn't want to answer her question, Qin Shushu knew what to do and didn't ask any more questions.
She walked forward, slowly leaned over and greeted him. Just now, she had already made up her mind.
"My Queen, I understand. In the end, you don't believe me. It's true that I have caused a lot of trouble in the past year since I entered the palace. Now, it is impossible for me to gain your trust. I also know that sweet words are useless in front of you. I swear by my dead child that I will follow your lead in matters concerning the Queen Mother. I will do whatever you say and will never betray you. Otherwise, let my dead child never enter reincarnation in this life. So, are you willing to believe me this time?"
Lin Junxue lowered her dark eyes and looked at Qin Shushu who was kneeling on the ground with a determined look.
This man is indeed smart. It is good that he does not talk about the future and only talks about the matter of the Queen Mother.
"In this case, I am willing to believe Shu Wanrong this time. Get up."
Qin Shushu stood up
"Your Highness, I have already visited the Queen Mother today. She was so angry that she had a headache again. When Eunuch Gao brought back Nanny Wu's body, the Queen Mother burst into tears and lost her composure. Her headache became even worse. That Wang Chu has been accompanying the Queen Mother the whole time. When I just came out, the Queen Mother was still crying. This time, after Nanny Wu's death, the Queen Mother will not be able to recover for three to five months. Your Highness, I think we cannot let go of this good opportunity."
Qin Shushu's anxiety is beyond words
She wished she could take this opportunity to kill the Queen Mother.
Lin Junxue glanced at her indifferently. Although she was smart, she was still not calm enough.
Lin Junxue shook her head
"A good opportunity? You want to take advantage of the Queen Mother's illness to kill her? It's not the right time yet. Once Nanny Wu dies, even if the Queen Mother is sad, it's only a matter of time. As long as the Emperor and the Queen Mother still have a mother-son relationship, and the Queen Mother is still the Queen Mother of the Xie Dynasty, no one can touch her. You are too fanciful. Besides, the Queen Mother has a trump card."
Qin Shushu calmed down after hearing this.
"Ace, Queen, are you talking about the twelve deadpools that the late emperor left for the Queen Mother when he passed away? But those are just twelve deadpools, what can they do?"
Lin Junxue raised her eyebrows, smiling
"What else can we do? These twelve dead servants have now been placed in the princess's residence by the Queen Mother. They have not entered the palace since they returned from Yushan. Do you know that these twelve dead servants were cultivated by the late emperor with great effort and painstaking efforts? They are truly powerful and can kill people without being seen. One person can defeat a hundred people. Until now, this has been a concern for the emperor. The Queen Mother's real trump card is Nanny Wu in terms of culture and these twelve dead servants in terms of martial arts."
This time, the Queen Mother and Nanny Wu plotted to harm her.
One of the reasons for failure is simply underestimating the enemy.
If she really used these twelve Deadpools, she might not be able to win so easily this time.
Qin Shushu was shocked. After all, she had only been in the palace for a short time and knew nothing about these palace secrets.
After all, I had only heard about it, but I never expected that the twelve deadpools around the Queen Mother were really so powerful.
Lin Junxue saw her shocked expression and narrowed her eyes slightly.
These twelve deadpools are the Queen Mother's real trump cards. According to the rules, they should have been passed down to Xie Yu by the late emperor.
It was only because of his love for the Empress Dowager that he went against the ancestral rules and left everything to her.
for a while
Qin Shushu said, "Thank you, Queen, for your advice. I was too impatient. Revenge cannot be achieved in a hurry. It requires timing. I will just listen to your instructions."
Lin Junxue nodded slightly
"Shu Wanrong, stay with the Queen Mother. You should think about it. With the Queen Mother's suspicious mind, she will definitely doubt your loyalty after this failure. If you can't dispel the Queen Mother's suspicion, your revenge in the future will be nothing but wishful thinking. While the Queen Mother is suffering from a headache, you still have time tonight. It's getting late. You should go back first."
Qin Shushu leaned over
"Thank you very much for your advice, Queen. Don't worry, I will dispel the Queen Mother's doubts and prevent her from getting suspicious. I will take my leave now. If there is anything else, I will inform you."
Qin Shushu is gone
Danzhen stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, although Shu Wanrong is a little anxious, this is indeed a good opportunity to deal with the Queen Mother. It's a pity."
Lin Junxue had an indifferent look on her face, but her eyes moved around meaningfully.
"It's not such a pity. In this world, the only person who can really push the Queen Mother into hell and make her never reincarnate is not me, let alone Shu Wanrong."
