"But the Emperor is not very old, so there is no problem in sitting here for another ten or eight years." Li Qian said.
"Having said that, there are always people who can't wait. Isn't the prince a living example?" Queen Mother Dou said, "Although the Ai family has long ignored the affairs of the court, everything in the court is under the nose of the Ai family. Just because the family doesn’t care, doesn’t mean the Ai family doesn’t care.”
As she said that, she sighed, "Although the emperor's decision is right, it will also cause turmoil in the entire court. Everyone has their own agenda, including the concubines in the harem. I'm afraid they will do anything for their prince!" "
"Queen Mother, but this seems to have nothing to do with me." Li Qian said.
"It's none of your business?" Empress Dowager Dou glanced at Li Qian, "If it weren't for you, how could there have been such a big change in this court? It can be said that the entire structure of the court has changed because of you!"
"Queen Mother, you really think too highly of me. The Emperor is the mastermind behind everything, and Li Qian is just a chess piece in the hands of the Emperor." Li Qian said with a smile.
"Li Qian, the Ai family called you out just to have a frank talk with you. The Ai family knows that you have always been close to Lao Wu." Empress Dowager Dou said, "Use your talents to assist Lao Wu to rise to power. It is not difficult for any prince to ascend to the throne, but have you ever thought about it. No matter how talented and political a prince is, as long as he becomes emperor, his eyes will become more and more intolerant of people with high achievements. It’s every emperor’s heart disease!”
Li Qian was startled. What the old lady said seemed to be true.
"When the time comes, will you resist or not?" Empress Dowager Dou continued, "If you don't resist, you will die. If you resist, the Dacheng Dynasty will be in turmoil again. With the current national destiny of the Dacheng Dynasty, it will not be able to withstand a few years. The situation is in turmoil, and when foreigners take advantage of it, the Dacheng Dynasty will be really in danger, and how can we talk about a prosperous age?"
"Queen Mother, are you looking too far ahead?" Li Qian asked, "Things haven't happened yet, who knows what the situation will be like."
"No, the Ai family doesn't see far at all, the Ai family only sees through!" Empress Dowager Dou sighed, "The Ai family went through the three emperors and saw more than what the Ai family told you."
"Li Qian, you are already in a situation, or in other words, you are in a deadlock. You help a prince and you have the ability to follow the dragon, but you will definitely be rejected in the end. If you don't help a prince, they will try their best to win you over. If you can’t win them over, they will try their best to get rid of you, so whether you choose to help a prince or not, it will be a dead move!”
Li Qi'an even broke into a cold sweat after being told that this old lady seemed to have seen further and thought more thoroughly than he did.
"So, the Ai family thinks that you should be the emperor!"
Empress Dowager Dou's last words were like a thunderclap, which almost staggered Li Qian and fell to the ground.
Is this old lady kidding him?
He could still accept what he just said, but he actually said the words that made him the emperor.
Is this old lady still the current Queen Mother?
There is no reason to let an outsider take the position of one's own descendants.
Perhaps he was avenging the Dou family and wanted to kill him.
"Li Qian, no one else will know about it today. The Ai family is definitely not kidding you. Didn't the Ai family just say that your surname is Li? Even if you become the emperor, this country will still belong to the Li family. ." Queen Mother Dou looked at Li Qian with kind eyes.
"Queen Mother, are you sure you are not harming me?" Li Qian asked with black lines on his head.
"Harming you? Is the Ai family trying to harm you? The Ai family knows that this idea is crazy. They don't care about their own descendants and let an outsider become the emperor. But the Ai family knows that they don't have this ability and can't bring anything to the Dacheng Dynasty. Shengshi, didn't the Ai family just say that the Ai family sees hope in you, you are not an outsider, you are the hope of the Ai family!"
