"You will help me, right? We are grasshoppers on the same boat now." Song Jingshu looked at Liu Qingge with a hint of eagerness.
Liu Qingge looked at Song Jingshu.
After all, Song Jingshu never thought that he could reach this position, and he looked at Liu Qingge with a hint of fear.
"His Royal Highness, do you know about Shangguan Xicheng?"
"The legitimate son of the Shangguan family, Ge'er asked me to win over Shangguan Xicheng?"
Liu Qingge shook his head: "No, I hope that Your Highness will support Shangguan Xizhi."
"Shangguan Xizhi?" Song Jingshu asked again uncertainly.
"Yes, Shangguan Xizhi."
"He is just a concubine of the Shangguan family. He has no way of inheriting the title. A mere fifth-grade cabinet bachelor is far less than the benefits that the Shangguan family can bring to us. What's more, Shangguan Xicheng's mother is from the Sun family." Song Jingshu He was very confused and felt that it was unreliable for Liu Qingge to ask him to win over Shangguan Xizhi, but he couldn't say it clearly.
Liu Qingge smiled: "Although the fifth-grade cabinet bachelor has real power, it is indeed not as powerful as the Shangguan family and the Sun family combined. But -"
The conversation changed: "Do you think these two major forces can be used by you, or do you think these two major forces can be owned by someone?"
Liu Qingge's words were sharp, but also very objective. Several great clans existed long before the Song Dynasty. Why were there only three ancient clans left in Zhongzhou?
It was just because they betrayed the previous dynasty, the Bai family.
The era when the Bai family ruled was the most prosperous era in Zhongzhou, but the reason for the Bai family's collapse was not only due to the Northern Desert, but also to the mistrust of the Song family.
But after so many years, few people remember that the Song Dynasty was stolen from the Bai family.
But it is impossible for Song Jingshu, who was born in the Song royal family, not to understand at all.
Song Jingshu thought for a long time: "Shangguan Xicheng will inherit the Shangguan family. It is already a certainty. I can't change anything."
"Then let me ask Your Highness, Shangguan Xicheng has not joined the officialdom, how can you be sure that he can inherit the title of Shangguan family?" Feng Qingge asked.
"Of course it's because he's about to marry my unpopular sister."
Although Song Jingxiu was the daughter of Emperor Song Ming, she was not favored. When Yeluqi wanted to get married, he did not choose Song Jingxiu because Song Jingxiu was worthless.
Apart from a title, it has no other uses.
"His Royal Highness, do you think Princess Jingxiu is willing to marry Shangguan Xicheng?"
Facing Liu Qingge's question, Song Jingshu seemed to have found confidence and said arrogantly: "She? Being able to marry Shangguan Xicheng is a blessing that has been cultivated in several lifetimes. If not for being able to marry Shangguan Xicheng, She doesn’t even have the title of princess, so we can only call her the emperor’s daughter.”
"Is this what you asked Song Jingxiu, or is it your own subjective assumption?"
Listening to Liu Qingge's obvious displeasure, Song Jingshu immediately softened: "This is not my subjective assumption. After all, my imperial sister is indeed vulgar and weighs a full 180 kilograms. A few steps are difficult, and if it weren’t for Shangguan Xicheng being a helpless Adou, he wouldn’t have married a princess to become an official.”
Liu Qingge had also heard that Song Jingxiu had a fair appearance but a huge body. But Song Jingxiu was not so exaggerated in the past. He did not expect that Song Jingxiu now weighs a full 180 kilograms.
However, these problems are not big. The most important thing is to win over Shangguan Xizhi.
There were many concubines in the Shangguan family, but only Shangguan Xizhi could be named. She absolutely believed that he was an ambitious man.
After thinking about it, Liu Qingge said: "I will do this. Your Highness, please rest early."
Song Jingshu's eyes flashed with confusion, but he felt that something he said might have offended Liu Qingge, so he could only say politely: "Ge'er, go slowly."
Liu Qingge nodded and went to Song Jingxiu's bedroom.
As soon as he stepped into the palace gate, he saw a nun scolding Song Jingxiu rudely. She slapped the ruler in her hand and said, "Cut your hooves, I'll let you be lazy!"
Seeing this, Liu Qingge narrowed his eyes and said sternly: "Open your mouth."
Snapped--!
Snapped--!
Two loud slaps.
Song Jingxiu looked into Liu Qingge's eyes. Instead of being grateful, she was filled with fear. Not because of anything else, but because once Liu Qingge left, this nanny would definitely take out her anger on her!
She timidly looked at Liu Qingge and begged, "Prince Princess, don't be angry. It was Jingxiu who was too stupid that made grandma angry."
When the nanny heard Jing Xiu testifying for herself, she covered her face and looked at Liu Qingge triumphantly, saying sarcastically: "Your Highness, the Crown Princess, although you are the Crown Princess, please forgive me for speaking frankly——"
Snapped--!
Before she could finish speaking, Liu Qingge slapped her in person and said in a deep voice: "Since you know my noble status, you still dare to talk back. Princess Jingxiu is an emperor's daughter no matter what. How can you servants say nothing?" ! Come here, drag me down and kill me with a cane!"
As soon as Liu Qingge finished speaking, the nanny cried loudly: "Your Highness, the Crown Princess, have mercy on me! Your Highness, the Crown Princess, have mercy on me! Your Highness, the Princess, save me!"
Song Jingxiu lowered his head and refused to raise his head to meet Liu Qingge's eyes.
Liu Qingge saw that Song Jingxiu was still kneeling there, as if waiting for punishment at any time. She sighed, helped Song Jingxiu up, and said, "You don't have to be so afraid of me."
Song Jingxiu stood up, his eyes evasive, and he held it in for a long time before saying: "The Crown Princess—"
Liu Qingge touched her face and asked with confusion, "Is there a man-eating goblin on my face?"
"No—no—"
Liu Qingge deliberately lowered his head to look into Song Jingxiu's eyes: "Then why are you afraid of me? I won't kill you."
When Song Jingxiu mentioned murder, he immediately thought that Liu Qingge had helped him punish the evil slave just now, and immediately thanked him: "Thank you, Your Highness, the Crown Princess."
"It's useless to thank me. The key is that you have to stand up for yourself."
"Myself?" Song Jingxiu looked up at Liu Qingge, as if he didn't understand what he meant.
"Yes, it's you."
Song Jingxiu clenched the handkerchief in his hand: "What can I do? I can't do anything."
After saying that, she lowered her head dejectedly, as if unwilling and resigned to her fate.
Liu Qingge looked at her. To be fair, Song Jingxiu was not ugly. His face looked exactly like Emperor Ming of the Song Dynasty. He also had a bit of elegance unique to women from Jiangnan water towns. He was so soft and charming that people couldn't help but pity her, but this face was full of... He has a body of one hundred and eighty pounds.
It really can be viewed from a distance but not played with.
Liu Qingge sighed and asked, "Do you want to marry Shangguan Xicheng?"
Song Jingxiu's eyes lit up when he heard the words 'Shangguan Xicheng', and then darkened again: "Being able to marry Shangguan Xicheng is a blessing that Jingxiu has cultivated over several lifetimes."
"Blessing? Does Princess Jingxiu know Shangguan Xicheng?!"
