Chapter 47: Agreement reached, Xiao A Zi arrives!
"Your Majesty is a reasonable person. Although your surname is Hu, you are more of a member of the royal family. If my royal family falls, you will not be well off."
"To be the queen above all others, or to be a princess nobody cares about, it all depends on your choice, madam."
Hu Shanxiang was immediately moved when she heard this. Xiao Yan's mother had passed away for many years, and now the person closest to the master of the harem was only Hu Shanxiang. How could she not be moved?
But then he smiled bitterly.
"Your Highness, you are joking. As long as you are here, I will never be the Queen!"
Xiao Yan smiled confidently at this time and said, "It depends on what your Majesty chooses."
Hu Shanxiang frowned upon hearing this: "Did the prince ask me to kill you? How can I survive then?"
Xiao Yan shook his head and said, "Superficial."
"Is it really true that the only way out of this is for me to die? A family cannot be without a master for a day, and a country cannot be without a king for a day!"
"The same goes for the harem. It can't be without a master for a day!"
"After all these years, Hu Zhenghe has never helped you get to that position. What does this mean?"
Hu Shanxiang couldn't help but ask, "What does this mean?"
"It means Hu Zhenghe never wanted you to sit in that seat. That's reserved for your mother!"
"But I am different. I have the ability to support you to that position."
"You want Xiao Ding to take my place, isn't it also so that you can rule the country?"
It has to be said that Xiao Yan's words touched Hu Shanxiang's heart.
Is he really thinking about his son? Not necessarily!
People are selfish. Even outside the palace, people eat their own children, let alone inside the palace.
It cannot be said that maternal love
"You can do it? How can you make me believe you?!"
Hu Shanxiang naturally would not believe it so easily.
Xiao Yan smiled and took out Hu Shanxiang's trousers from his sleeve. Hu Shanxiang's face immediately turned red, like a ripe apple.
Just talk, what are you doing with this thing?
"I've told you that if you listen to me, this position will be yours. Of course, I won't touch you. I'll just collect some interest today."
"Including the previous ones!"
"But you have to promise that Xiao Ding will not be involved in this matter in the future, otherwise I won't be able to protect him!"
After hearing the words clearly, Hu Shanxiang finally understood what Xiao Yan's purpose was.
She now has two paths to choose from. One is to continue to support Xiao Ding, and the other is to make concessions and let Xiao Yan help her take the throne!
"Your Majesty, you also understand that there are many majesties in this palace, and you are not the only one who has given birth to a prince. It is easy to support a queen!"
At this moment Hu Shanxiang panicked. She knew that Xiao Yan always kept his word, and she had been doing whatever she wanted in the palace over the years relying on Hu Zhenghe.
If someone else becomes the queen, then my good days will be over!
"Okay, I promise you, but if you don't do it, don't blame me for turning my back on you!"
Xiao Yan smiled slightly: "Of course, but..."
Before Xiao Yan finished speaking, the door was opened and a soft voice was heard.
"Mother, hey, the prince is here too!"
A little girl of about seven or eight years old appeared in front of the two people.
"Nannan, why are you here?"
As she spoke, Hu Shanxiang glanced at Xiao Yan, who then realized that he had not yet taken back the thing in his hand, so he quickly put it into his sleeve.
But this scene was also seen by little A Zi!
"Brother Crown Prince, did you hide some delicious food? Hand it over quickly, or Ah Zi will be angry!"
Xiao Yan was also quite helpless as his mistake was seen by this little girl.
"No way, Crown Prince Brother didn't hide any delicious food. But if you want to eat something delicious, you can go back to the East Palace with me, and I will have someone make it for you!"
As he spoke, he picked up the little girl.
In fact, no matter what impression Xiao Yan had of his sister, it did not affect his love for her.
After all, he has more than ten younger brothers, but only one little princess!
Hu Shanxiang was able to act so powerfully in the harem because of Hu Zhenghe, one of the reasons, and the little princess was also one of the reasons.
"Is it really possible? But my mother won't let me go to the East Palace, saying that the Crown Prince is a big bad wolf who will eat people!"
Hu Shanxiang was also very embarrassed when she heard this. After all, it was embarrassing to be exposed by a little child.
"Of course you can. Then, little A Zi, do you think your brother is the Big Bad Wolf? Ah Wu!"
As he said this, he made the shape of a big bad wolf!
"Hehe, brother, that's not the case. Auntie is lying!"
"Then, mother, can I go to the East Palace?"
Hu Shanxiang was in a dilemma for a moment, fearing that Xiao Yan would do something bad to little A Zi.
Xiao Yan also saw through Hu Shanxiang's thoughts.
"My queen, I'm not as dirty as you think. This is my only sister. I will never do anything to her no matter what!"
Hu Shanxiang also noticed Xiao Yan's love for little A Zi and could only nod silently.
"Of course you can, but remember to come back early, otherwise my mother will worry!"
When little A Zi heard Hu Shanxiang's agreement, her expectant expression suddenly turned into excitement.
"Great! We can go to the prince's place to eat delicious food!"
"I want to eat candied haws, roast chicken, and..."
Xiao Yan was also extremely helpless. This guy is just a little foodie!
"Okay, okay, I have everything!"
"Then my lady, I will take my leave first!"
Then he carried little A Zi out of Mingde Palace.
After Xiao Yan left, Hu Shanxiang became completely weakened.
The emperor has been ill for so many years, and I haven't seen him for a long time...
Just now, when Xiao Yan teased her, ripples appeared in her immersed heart.
After Xiao Yan left, Hu Shanxiang no longer felt the fear and nervousness she had before, but instead felt relieved.
East Palace.
"Ahhh, ahhh, delicious!"
"Brother Prince, there are so many delicious foods here!"
Xiao Yan regretted bringing little A Zi back. This girl was too much of an eater. She opened her mouth and asked for a lot of food and started showing off.
"Eat slowly, there's more here. Could it be that your mother abused you and didn't give you food?"
The little girl shook her head while eating.
"No, it's just that the food in my mother's palace is not as delicious as what the prince has here. Nannan has never eaten such delicious food!"
Xiao Yan was helpless. As a professional delivery man in his previous life, he had seen all kinds of delicious food. He even cooked the food himself when he was not in time to serve the food.
When it comes to eating, Xiao Yan has a firm grasp on it.
"Then just come often in the future. Didn't your mother agree today?"
The little girl said while eating: "I know, Auntie actually doesn't like the prince, so Nanny doesn't want to make Auntie angry!"
"But if my mother allows it, my daughter can come!"
Xiao Yan also did not expect that such a little girl could see through so many things!
Xiao Yan couldn't help but want to train little A Zi.
