Chapter 25
Princess Huyang had a private garden outside the city. The garden was planted with autumn chrysanthemums and the scenery was pleasant.
At this time, she was sitting in a stone pavilion in the flower scene, having a banquet with the man opposite.
This man was in his early thirties. He was tall, mighty, and handsome. However, he had a faint anger between his brows and looked unapproachable.
This person is none other than Jingzong's seventh son, Prince Zhao, Xiao Yun.
「Seventh Brother, don't just drink.」 Princess Huyang said angrily, 「Now the Empress Dowager is choosing an Empress for Ninth Brother. It seems that he is getting married.」
Xiao Yun placed the wine glass heavily on the table: 「If you hadn't sent people to spread those rumors, how could Ninth Brother have acted like this?」
He said dissatisfiedly, 「I've said it before, any man who wants to bear that kind of title, even if he really can't do it, he still has to establish an Empress first to prove that he is not incompetent.」
「So what?」 Princess Huyang played with her nails that were painted with dandelions. Her beautiful eyes were full of charm.
The royal family members all have very good looks. Even if Princess Huyang is already a mother of three children, she is still very charming. She said softly, 「With the election now, we can fish in troubled waters. Don't you want to sit in that position? Because of this trivial matter, the situation was messed up. Seventh Brother, don't blame me for looking down on you.」
「Humph.」 Xiao Yun snorted coldly, 「I'm just complaining.」 But he was still worried, 「Fourth sister, do you really want to launch it on his Birthday Banquet?」
「You're not afraid, are you?」 Princee Huyang frowned, 「Now that everything is ready, all we need is the east wind. If we launch the plan on his Birthday Banquet, we can wipe out the emperor and the Empress Dowager. Don't worry, I will send people to keep an eye on Ninth Brother and won't let him cause you trouble. As for the Empress Dowager...」 She smiled coldly, 「You must leave that woman's life to me.」
Seeing the cruelty in her eyes, Xiao Yun couldn't help but shudder secretly.
It's really amazing to see a woman becoming so ruthless. Although he was the one who sat on the throne after the rebellion, he had to admit that his sister was actually the leading figure in the rebellion.
Soon, October arrived.
Ye Xuan was busy choosing the Empress. In addition, the palace was preparing for Xiao Ye's Birthday Banquet, and the entire Daming Palace was noisy.
Although everything in the two palaces was business as usual in front of others, Ye Xuan and Xiao Ye had not spoken to each other for a long time.
Xiao Ye came to greet Ye Xuan as usual. The two of them had a tacit understanding. One sat in the outer hall and the other sat in the inner room.
After Xiao Ye drinks a cup of tea, he will leave silently.
Ye Xuan couldn't sleep well all night long. Although it had only been a few months, she had become accustomed to being embraced by that generous and solid chest and leaning on his arms with peace of mind.
After Xiao Ye left, Ye Xuan stared at the teacup he left behind in a daze, looking at it all day long.
The choice of the Empress was about to be decided. Ye Xuan was hesitating between the daughter of Marquis Ningyuan and the daughter of the Zhou family of Nanyang. She thought that she was unable to decide because she couldn't bear to part with him.
