That night, Su Ran finally fulfilled Jia Yuanchun's wish and went to her room.

Of course, her sister Yingchun also lives in this room.

The reason why he went to the two sisters' room was naturally because Yuanchun took the initiative to fight for it.

However, there are also factors of Mrs. Wang mixed in.

She worked so hard to come here in person and even planned to sacrifice herself.

Facing such a woman, Su Ran could only feel admiration.

I admire the other person's boldness, and I admire the other person's motherly love.

The other party has worked so hard, and it seems a bit unjustifiable if I don't go to her daughter's room at night.

In this way, Su Ran enjoyed the joint service of the two Jia sisters for the first time.

Just when Su Ran entered Jia Yuanchun's room, there was a worried woman in her 30s in a house in the capital.

The mature woman was wearing a dress made of silk and satin. Her skin was so well maintained that it was smooth and fair. It was impossible to tell that she was a woman of this age.

This woman is Aunt Xue, who has moved her family from Jinling to the capital.

This house was just bought by the Xue family from a businessman in the capital.

At this moment, Aunt Xue was sitting alone under the flickering candlelight, with a trace of sadness on her face.

Looking at the candlelight dancing in the air, she murmured to herself: "We, the Xue family, have no reason to give up the position of Queen!"

At this moment, a maid outside reported at the door: "Madam, Miss Baoqin is here."

When Aunt Xue heard this, she immediately stood up from the stool.

At this time, the door of the room also opened slightly.

The next moment, Aunt Xue saw a girl who was twenty-eight years old, with a peach-shaped face and a plump face walking in.

Seeing the visitor, a smile immediately appeared on her face.

When the girl who came over saw Aunt Xue, she immediately saluted respectfully and said, "Baoqin has met Aunt Xue."

Seeing this, Aunt Xue hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, and grabbed her pink and white catkin.

"Girl Qin hasn't seen you for a few days, and she's become more lively again."

Hearing this, Xue Baoqin covered her mouth and smiled and said, "Auntie will make fun of me. If we talk about water spirit, who can compare with Sister Baochai!"

When Aunt Xue heard this, she immediately laughed loudly: "You Qin girl, you didn't even let your sister go."

When Xue Baoqin saw this, a smile appeared on his face, and his beautiful eyes looked around the room.

After counting, she looked at Aunt Xue and said, "Huh? Why isn't Sister Baochai here? Wasn't she the one who called me?"

Seeing this, Aunt Xue smiled and pulled Xue Baoqin to her beauty couch and sat down: "No, it was aunt who called you here. Baochai doesn't know about this."

Hearing this, Xue Baoqin could not help but reveal a trace of doubt in her beautiful eyes.

Her beautiful eyes stared at her aunt Xue, her face turned slightly red and she said, "Auntie called me over. Is there anything important?"

Seeing this, Aunt Xue took her hand and smiled and said: "This matter is really important, not only to you, but also to our Xue family."

After hearing these words, Xue Baoqin's face became more confused.

Seeing her puzzled look, Aunt Xue looked at her pretty red face, smiled slightly and said: "There is something I want to discuss with you first. If you agree, I will go find it." Your mother said."

After hearing this, Xue Baoqin looked at Aunt Xue and said, "Auntie, tell me, I'm listening." After hearing this, Aunt Xue sighed softly and said, "Your father is gone and your mother is sick again, so I sent you Entrust me to take care of you. To be fair, you and Baochai are the same in my heart."

Hearing this, Xue Baoqin nodded silently: "My aunt is good to me. I know this in my heart. If you have anything to say, just say it and I will listen to you."

Hearing this, Aunt Xue smiled happily and said: "Actually, this is also an opportunity for you. The regent your sister Baochai is about to marry is about to become emperor, and now she has not married yet. These You must know this, right?"

"Yes, I have heard these things from the maids below." Xue Baoqin listened to Aunt Xue's words and responded softly, "They all envy Sister Baochai for her good fortune!"

After hearing this, Aunt Xue smiled and said: "This matter is indeed Baochai's creation, but now there is a problem that stumps me and your sister Baochai, so I want to discuss it with you."

When Xue Baoqin heard this, he couldn't help but feel even more confused.

She secretly thought in her heart, what ideas can I have for something that you can't do anything about?
Seeing this, Aunt Xue continued to speak: "Now that the regent promised by your sister Baochai wants to proclaim himself emperor, he must have a queen. I want Baochai to fight for it, but I am afraid that his strength will not be as good as his others. Those ladies, therefore, have never dared to tamper with them."

When Xue Baoqin heard what was going on, Liu Mei couldn't help but frown slightly.

Xindao Baochai's sister's fight for the queen has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't know the regent.

Thinking of this, she looked at Aunt Xue and said, "I'm afraid I can't be of much help in this matter, right?"

Hearing this, Aunt Xue looked at Xue Baoqin and smiled and said: "Don't say that, I need your help to do this. You should know that the two young ladies Yuanchun and Yingchun of Rongguo Mansion are married to that person, And now, although your sister Baochai has an engagement with that person, she has never consummated the marriage. Therefore, she does not have an advantage in competing for the position of queen. Originally, the clan planned to build a regent palace for Baochai to marry. But now that he wants to be emperor, there is no need to build this palace. In this way, the only bargaining chip our Xue family has on him is your sister Baochai."

After saying this, Aunt Xue stared at her niece Xue Baoqin with flashing eyes, with a slightly solemn expression on her face.

Xue Baoqin couldn't help being shocked when he heard this.

Judging from the meaning behind these words, could it be that he wants to marry me to the regent?

But, haven’t I already been engaged to Mei Hanlin’s son?

Is this...appropriate?

Thinking of this, Xue Baoqin looked at Aunt Xue and said, "You mean to let me also..."

Hearing this, Aunt Xue patted her niece Bao Qin's hand gently and said, "Yes, I want to marry you too. You have to know that nowadays, the dignitaries, wealthy businessmen, and businessmen in the capital all want to marry that person." I send girls as gifts, but as far as I know, she always avoids them, so this matter is just an idea of ​​mine, and it still needs to be put into practice, and it’s hard to say whether it will work out or not.”

"But what should I do about my engagement?" Xue Baoqin heard this and asked quickly, with a slightly embarrassed look on his face.

Seeing this, Aunt Xue smiled and said: "Isn't that easy? As long as you are attracted by that person, is your engagement still useful? Besides, the father of the person you are engaged to is there. As an official under his subordinates, how can he not know how to advance or retreat when the time comes? It’s really not possible. When the time comes, our Xue family will come to the door to apologize. Anyway, we can’t let people gossip, but that’s not important. What’s important is whether you can be manipulated by that person. I like it."

After hearing these words, Xue Baoqin suddenly felt uneasy.

At this moment, she felt that her future seemed to have new light.

Marrying the emperor was something she had never dared to think about before.

Although Xue Baoqin had already heard about that person.

Even when I first heard that my cousin Xue Baochai had entered into a marriage contract, I felt envious for a long time.

Thinking of this, Xue Baoqin raised her beautiful eyes and looked at her aunt Xue, and said softly with a slightly red face: "In this case, everything is up to my aunt."

Seeing this, Aunt Xue took her niece Xue Baoqin into her arms, and the smile on her face became stronger.

At this moment, she had already made a plan in her heart. No matter what, she would definitely invite Su Ran over tomorrow.

Only then can your plan be implemented.

Whether that thing will happen or not will depend on tomorrow.

Thinking of this, Aunt Xue's eyes flickered.
