The next morning, the servant girl was still drinking tonics when she heard a young voice shout from outside, “Sister snake spirit, I’m here to play with you!”

As he spoke, he clapped the door a few times.

The servant girl opened the door and saw a child standing at the door. She asked, “Who are you looking for?”

“I’m looking for sister snake spirit!” The servant girl ran in.

The servant girl saw the servant girl lying on the bed with a bowl in her hand. “Sister snake spirit, why are you drinking tonics?”

“Why are you here?” The servant girl was a bit nervous, afraid that the servant girl would notice something.

“I’m here to play with you. You didn’t go wash your clothes today because you were sick?” Lan Qingqian kept asking her some irrelevant questions.

The servant girl didn’t have the mood to answer. “I won’t wash my clothes in the future. Just give up.”

Lan Qingqian wasn’t angry. She looked around and said, “Sister snake spirit, why are you so poor? You don’t have anything? I want to eat some pastries. Ask her to get some for me.”

The servant girl was unwilling to go. When the servant girl left, she lowered her voice and said, “Are you afraid that you don’t know my relationship with you? Are you trying to kill me?”

Lan Qingqian curled her lips. “I’m here to pass a message to you. The big guy wants me to tell you that he wants the tomb of Emperor Chang Ci. If you give it to him, he can give you a big gift.”

“What?” The lady was curious.

Lan Qingqian continued to be the messenger, “You can tell your emperor that you secretly knew that Empress Dowager Canglan summoned the Canglan army back and the little emperor was fighting. The two of them are arguing. You can persuade the emperor to take this opportunity and take a step back. You can move Emperor Chang Ci’s memorial tablet out of the temple and give Canglan an explanation. You can also save Dongchi’s face.”

“Then if Your Majesty asks me how I know, I…” The lady hesitated.

Lan Qingqian rolled her eyes and looked at her with disdain, “Idiot. I already sent myself to you. You just told me and you already know. Can’t you even fool a little kid?”

The lady was so angry that she wanted to kill her.

After she finished speaking, the maid came with some pastries. At the same time, Empress Dongchi and the other lady came.

Lan Qingqian acted as if she didn’t see them. She immediately took the pastries from the palace maid and started to eat.

Empress Zhang said, “Your Majesty, you saw it too. This lady is very close to the people of the West Province.”

She was warning the emperor not to trust her.

Lan Qingqian didn’t seem to hear her and just ate the pastries. Her legs wobbled on the stool, “Sister Snake Spirit, the pastries here are so delicious.”

Her words successfully attracted Si Yaohai’s attention, “You are Gu Jun’an’s nephew.”

Lan Qingqian didn’t admit or deny it. She finished eating the pastries and patted her palms. “Sister Snake Spirit, thank you for your pastries. But you can’t wash clothes or cook. You still came to take care of me.” After saying that, she ran out.

“I’ll come and find you tomorrow to eat pastries.” She disappeared in a flash.

The noble woman stood up. “Your Majesty, Your Highness. She told the child about the situation. She’s young and pure. I told her what happened yesterday. Today, she accidentally came to me. I want to ask more about the West Province and Canglan to help you.”

She said it sincerely. She even told him about the fact that the Empress asked for his credit yesterday.

“Yesterday, you reported to the Empress?”

The noble woman nodded. “Yes. I was taking care of the child in the yard yesterday. I heard some about the West Province and Canglan. I didn’t know if it was useful or not, so I told the Empress.”

Si Yao and glanced at the Empress. “What did you report to the Empress yesterday?”

The Empress could only say yes. She looked angry and unwilling. She took the chance when Si Yao didn’t see her to glare at the noble woman.

‘The fox spirit is getting bold?’

Si Yao and praised the noble woman’s understanding of the big picture and her heartfeltness. “Alright, Empress. You can go now.”

Empress Zhang glared at the pampered person and left.

After Empress Zhang left, the pampered person immediately knelt down. Before she could speak, she started to cry, “Your Majesty, although I don’t know much, I still tried my best to serve you. I heard something from the child’s mouth, so I suddenly thought of a good idea.”

“Oh, tell me about it.”

“If I say it wrong, don’t blame me, Your Majesty!” The pampered person was terrified.

Si Yaohe raised his hand, “You can speak when you get up.”

“When Gu Xiaojiu came here, I gave her some pastries and talked to her. I also heard from Canglan that the empress dowager doesn’t agree to continue the fight. She said that He Dongzhi should withdraw from the army.

However, Canglan’s little emperor argued for him and asked for an explanation. Didn’t the West Province already prepare to fight to the death? However, as long as Canglan doesn’t fight, the West Province might not be sure that they can win.

Canglan has the empress dowager’s support, so they will definitely be willing to take a step back. We will also take a step back and send Canglan away. The West Province won’t be able to do anything to Canglan.”

Si Yaohe listened to the reason and said, “Continue.”

“It’s impossible for His Majesty to write a letter of apology. After all, it wasn’t His Majesty who did it. It wouldn’t be good for His Majesty to open the coffin and let them humiliate the late Emperor Chang Ci. After all, the late Emperor Chang Ci is His Majesty’s uncle. If His Majesty agrees, wouldn’t the entire Eastern Region be stabbed in the back?”

He glanced at Si Yao and saw that he wasn’t angry. He then said, “But if His Majesty agrees to remove the memorial tablet and the incense offerings, it would be a good thing for Canglan. His Majesty would have protected the face of Chang Ci.”

Si Yao and thought about it for a while and felt that it made sense.

The noble woman said, “I don’t know much. If I say anything wrong, please don’t be angry. I just want to help His Majesty and not make things difficult for him.”

“I think you are right. In any case, Chang Ci was cruel and unreasonable. He wasn’t even my father. It doesn’t matter if he is removed from the memorial tablet!” The main point was whether he was her father or not. He couldn’t care too much about it now.

The noble woman felt relieved when she heard that.

Then, she said, “Then His Majesty, will you be angry? I didn’t want to, but the Seventh Prince and General He were very careful and didn’t care about me. That’s why I thought that a child would be easy to talk to.”

Si Yaohe said, “How could that be? You did well. It was worth it. If this succeeds, I will make you a concubine.”

The noble woman felt satisfied. This was such a great honor. She would become a concubine immediately.

If she had another chance to have a child, she would become a concubine.

Si Yao and Hearing Jiao Pei’s words, he summoned He Dongzhi.

Hearing his condition, He Dongzhi was furious. He pulled out his sword and said, “Si Yao, don’t be so perfunctory. At most, we’ll fight to the death.”
