Leng Xiao asked back, "May I ask the Queen Mother, what is harmony? Where there are women, there will be right and wrong, and we are competing for the same man. If there is a conflict of interest, there will definitely be a fight. The Queen Mother should also know this."
The Empress Dowager's face darkened again, "If you are generous, they will naturally not dare to go over your head too presumptuously. Moreover, the Recorder of the East Palace has arrangements for sleeping with you, so everything should be done according to the rules."
There is a recorder in the East Palace who is responsible for the affairs of the East Palace, but it was not needed in the past. Before Leng Xiao came back, the prince had not favored anyone.
There is no need for Leng Xiao after she comes back, because the prince favors the princess in Wanwan.
The recorder has been neglected for a long time, but now he can finally come in handy.
The Empress Dowager stared at her for a long time and then said: "Leng Xiao, give the Ai family a word of caution and won't embarrass Liang Yuan and Liang Di who come in."
After Leng Xiao was silent for a moment, he said: "I can only agree and not take the initiative to stir up trouble."
The Empress Dowager said forcefully: "You must also agree that you will advise the prince to get wet with rain and dew."
Leng Xiao shook his head, "I don't know how to persuade. I'm not that stupid to persuade my man to touch other women."
"You..." The Empress Dowager was angry, "After all, you still want to monopolize the prince, Leng Xiao. Even if the prince listens to you now, what will happen in the future? What if he becomes the emperor? Is it just you? Wouldn't it mess up the ancestors? To disrupt the imperial court? How can the royal family continue to have descendants? Even if you keep reproducing, how many can you have?"
Leng Xiao couldn't answer such a question. Even though she loved Nangong Yitian deeply, she was still rational and sober.
She looked at the empress dowager and smiled bitterly, "I don't know about the future. The future is too far away and I can't hold it. I just want to focus on the present. I don't want him to have another woman. The empress dowager insists on sending a woman in, so I don't want him to have another woman." I won’t let him touch them.”
The Empress Dowager was furious, "What if the Ai family made an edict and they had to consummate their marriage? Do you ask him to disobey the edict? Do you want him to lose his position as prince?"
Leng Xiao met the Empress Dowager's eyes and said, "If he consummates his marriage with them in order to protect the crown prince's position, I understand, but he and I will no longer be husband and wife."
The Empress Dowager slapped the table, "That's unreasonable. What do you think of the position of the Crown Princess? Leng Xiao, you don't know your own abilities, how dare you threaten the Crown Prince with this? The Ai family is doing your best, but you don't appreciate it and don't know what to do. , do you really think that the Ai family can't do anything to you?"
Aunt Wanrong quickly advised from the side: "Princess, you can't be so selfish. How can the important matters of the country be linked to the personal relationship of your children? Even if you love the prince deeply, you can't monopolize the prince. This is impossible. , if the prince is deposed because of you, you will be a sinner through the ages. If the prince is willing to give up his position as the prince for you, you will still be a sinner through the ages. Think carefully, the Queen Mother is really good for you."
"Also, if you can prevent Liang Yuan and Liang Di from entering today, what will happen in the future? The civil and military officials of the entire court have long been dissatisfied with you, and the emperor has also complained about it. If other people who are jealous of the prince take the opportunity to cause trouble because of the affairs in the inner courtyard of the prince's east palace, Can you bear the consequences? Don’t be blamed for beauty’s misfortune. Crown Princess, I boldly said these words, but every word of kindness is also for the sake of Crown Princess.”
This is where Leng Xiao feels sad. Everyone is dissatisfied with her, the emperor is also dissatisfied with her, and even the empress dowager in front of her is dissatisfied with her.
And if she wants to stay with Nangong Yitian, she must allow him to have other women by his side, and she must virtuously persuade him to get the best of him.
Doing this can only ensure that she is still the princess and can stay by her side, but it will still not satisfy everyone. She is Leng Zhenhuan's daughter, which is the original sin. She killed Leng Zhenhuan, which is even more the original sin. .
Her determination will change as the situation changes. Unless he ceases to be the prince, this step will eventually be taken.
