Chapter 174

To deal with Du Shangshu, and there is already evidence, there are actually many roundabout ways to quickly capture Du Shangshu. Qin Shuhuang admitted that it was indeed a bit reckless to report it directly to the court, which angered the regent.

But she was pressed for time. In order to quickly capture the regent and force him to cut off an important part of his power, this was the fastest way to do it.

She didn't refute Liu Renci, but just smiled and said: "Lord Liu is also very dangerous today, the regent is not a big-hearted person."

When Liu Renci thought that when he returned to Beijing to report on his duties, he would be meddling in disaster relief, and then harass all the ministers, intervene in the regent's decision-making from time to time, and even force the regent to punish the dead and vegetarians. He was taken aback, and then laughed.

It's time, and only by being quick and precise can we solve the problem. We can't give the other party a little time to change things, otherwise with the other party's huge power, they may not be able to achieve the results they want.

Both he and the eldest princess subconsciously chose this method.

Saying that the eldest princess is reckless, he is not reckless. Now that I think about it, this is actually a matter of no choice.

"It's Wei Chen who took it for granted, Your Highness is more courageous than Wei Chen."

The two walked out of the hall together, "What did Master Liu say? There are many things and methods. I still learned from Master Liu!"

Liu Renren stroked his beard and smiled happily.

"When the matter of the disaster victims is over, I will personally post a post to invite my lord and his wife to visit the eldest princess's mansion. Then please don't decline, Lord Liu."

Liu Renren nodded, "Of course, I am looking forward to this day coming soon."

Liu Renci was worried about the building of houses for the victims, so she hurriedly bid farewell to Qin Shuhuang and left the palace.

After the morning court was over, Qin Shuhuang was not in a hurry to leave the palace, and ordered Ruihe to rush to Yuzhao Palace with his people.

Today's Yuzhao Palace election will determine the final candidate for the queen.

After the morning session, Xiao Rang accompanied Qin Shumin back to Funing Hall.

After the morning incident, Xiao Rang was in a good mood. Although the emperor didn't show it on his face, Xiao Rang knew that the emperor was in a better mood than he was.

On the way, Qin Shumin asked, "Did you give her something?"

Xiao Rang smiled and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry. Early this morning, I personally handed over the clothes and jewelry to Maid Weiwei. Maid Weiwei is full of confidence."

"Where is Xiao Dong?"

"It has been arranged to Yuzhao Palace."

"Go, go back and change clothes, and then go directly to Yuzhao Palace."

Yuzhao Palace was even more lively than that day during the primary election.

Today, the Regent Princess and Concubine Liu Gui are still in charge. The official general election has not yet started. The Emperor will also come by then, and the palace eunuchs are decorating the main hall.

Suddenly the little eunuch hurriedly came to report with an anxious look on his face, "Princess, the eldest princess is here..."

The princess regent was stunned, her face suddenly turned ugly, what, Qin Shuhuang is here again!

The morning court has ended, and Yuzhao Palace is not far from the morning court hall. The regent has already received the news of the morning court. The regent just sent someone to tell her that today's election must be successful, otherwise the Xia family will not go to see him .

The princess regent made up her mind that today's affairs must not go wrong.

But Qin Shuhuang is no longer the same Qin Shuhuang as before. She has just been given the title of "Elder Princess Protector of the Country".

So far, the only Princess Dawu with such a title is Qin Shuhuang!Her status is higher than that of her, the regent princess.

And she is Qin Shumin's biological sister.

Now she can't stop it even if she wants to.

The regent princess asked Shao Gongzheng on the side, "Can the emperor come today?"

Shao Gong said rightly: "Come on, the emperor has just sent Xiao Dong to inform you that he will arrive in a quarter of an hour."

The emperor is coming too!

The princess regent wanted to laugh out loud three times.

Qin Shuhuang was granted the title today, and the emperor did not verbally congratulate Qin Shuhuang, the biological sister. It can be seen how bad the relationship between the siblings has become. I heard that the last time Qin Shuhuang brought Zhenbei King into the palace to thank him for the marriage, in Funing The palace had a big quarrel with the emperor, and the emperor not only didn't want to see Qin Shuhuang's sister, but even the brother-in-law of King Zhenbei.

If the emperor came in person today, it would be strange for Qin Shuhuang's people to be selected!

In this case, Qin Shuhuang can come whenever he wants. Wouldn't it be more satisfying for her to see with her own eyes the person she likes being abandoned by the emperor?
With such a calculation in mind, the princess regent said to the eunuch who came to report the letter: "His Royal Highness the eldest princess is honorable, and now she is the eldest princess protecting the country. It is right to come and see the general election. Outsiders should not block it. I found out that whoever dares to disrespect the eldest princess, I will not spare her in the first place."

The little eunuch who reported the news responded repeatedly and ran out quickly to inform.

The little eunuch who reported the letter left, and the princess regent ordered someone to prepare tables and chairs for Qin Shuhuang. The specifications were all prepared according to her own specifications, even faintly surpassing that of Concubine Liu Gui.

Concubine Liu Gui who was on the side frowned.

Could it be that the Princess Regent took the wrong medicine today and actually agreed to Qin Shuhuang coming in to escort that girl from the Xue family? Is she crazy?
There are still many palace people guarding the gate of Yuzhao Palace, which is worse than last time.

Qin Shuhuang thought that she would have to work hard to enter Yuzhao Palace, but she didn't expect that a clever little eunuch greeted her as soon as she arrived at the gate of Yuzhao Palace.

He was followed by four palace maids. When he came to Qin Shuhuang, he saluted Qin Shuhuang respectfully, "The younger one would like to pay his respects to Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess. Please go inside to greet her."

Not only did the little eunuch enthusiastically invite Qin Shuhuang inside, he even prepared a banquet for her.

Qin Shuhuang raised her eyebrows, wondering what kind of hole the Princess Regent dug today to make her jump.

After entering Yuzhao Palace, the Princess Regent and Princess Liu Gui came out to greet them.

"Congratulations, Your Highness, I was granted the title today. Auntie has nothing to congratulate. Please give this bracelet to Your Highness as a congratulatory gift." The regent princess took off the jadeite bracelet from her wrist and handed it to Qin Shuhuang.

Concubine Liu Gui next to her wanted to pretend to be confused, but the princess regent had already delivered something, so how could she still be empty-handed.

She didn't bring any special gifts when she came. She was just about to ask her personal maid to go back to the palace to get something as a gift to send Qin Shuhuang away. The Princess Regent seemed to have guessed what she was thinking. She turned her eyes and said, "I'm afraid that the concubine will be with her." I came in a hurry and didn't make any preparations, but Her Royal Highness the Princess is not an outsider, so I gave her a bracelet that I carry with me. This necklace is nice for you today, why not give it to Your Highness as a congratulatory gift."

Being lifted up like this by the Princess Regent, it was too late for Concubine Liu Gui to go back and get the congratulatory gifts.

The necklace she is wearing today is a rare golden pearl paired with a gourd tourmaline. It is expensive and it is her favorite necklace!I don't know how many times better than the bracelet of the princess regent!It really hurts to let her go!
Seeing her expression of pain, Qin Shuhuang said quickly: "Aunt, please stop joking with the concubine. Although I have sold my jewelry to the victims to buy food, I can't ask for your gifts."

The Princess Regent was surprised, "Your Highness sold your jewelry for the sake of the people? If this is the case, you should accept your aunt's bracelet."

After saying that, he not only gave the bracelet to Qin Shuhuang, but also pulled out a fine filigree eight-treasure hairpin from his own head and gave it to Qin Shuhuang, "Your Highness, if you don't accept it today, my aunt will not accept it. This is The hairpin is used as a gift for the common people. If His Highness is short of money, selling this hairpin can help the common people eat a few more meals."

Qin Shuhuang's eyes were filled with gratitude and relief, "Auntie cares about the people in her heart, so I will accept her wishes for the people."

Concubine Liu Gui next to her was dumbfounded.

Now she not only wants to give away her favorite necklace, but also an extra piece of jewelry?The Princess Regent cheated her too much!
