After I stopped being a lady from a rich family, I fought all over the capital

Chapter 157 Hearing something about the Song family's wife
"It's one thing to keep it in your heart, and it's another thing to bring it out and say it out loud."

There was a hint of indifference in the corners of Zhao Tan's eyes and eyebrows.

"You should be ruthless when you use thunderous means, but you should not say these words every day."

She smiled, picked the reddest and biggest cherry and put it into the little emperor's mouth.

"You want people to both fear and love you."

"I know your cruelty, but I also know your mercy."

"In this way, the people who work for you will remember your good points, be willing to be open with you, be devoted to you and devote themselves to you."

"If you make people fear you, then they will deceive you when it comes to matters of life and death for the sake of survival."

"Similarly, if you only make people think that you are kind and compassionate, and that you are a person of great good nature, there will be cunning people who will take advantage of your compassionate nature to deceive and seek benefits for themselves and others."

"By then, the fame and benefits will belong to others, and you will be the only one to be slaughtered."

"Isn't that stupid?"

The little emperor chewed the cherry carefully, and the sweet taste filled his mouth.

He looked closely at Zhao Tan's expression and saw that he indeed cared about him.

"That's what Sister said!"

"I'm taught."

The little emperor changed his tone to a coquettish one again and moved closer to the person.

"I will stay at my sister's house today, is that okay?"

Zhao Tan reached out and pushed the person away.

"Since Your Majesty wants to eat Cherry Pastry, I will ask Guizhi to deliver it to the palace for you later."

Zhao Tan felt tired and asked to send them away: "I have invited people to a small gathering today, it is inconvenient to keep the emperor here."

The emperor suddenly felt wronged: "Who is this person who is more important than my brother?" "I don't care!"

"I'm going to stay!"

"I want to see who on earth could have bewitched my elder sister and even kicked my own brother out of the house!"

Zhao Tan glared at him and said, "I invited some girls here, why are you staying here? Aren't you afraid of offending them?"

The little emperor was reluctant to leave, and grumbled, "Then I won't come out, I'll just take a sneak peek..."

"What are you looking at?" Zhao Tan raised his hand and tapped his head gently: "I'm not showing it to you!"

"Since you are so anxious to see a girl, I will go to the palace tomorrow and ask my mother to arrange a selection for you. It just so happens that there hasn't been a new person in the harem for a long time. You are not young anymore. It's time to get married and have children to expand the royal family."

Before Zhao Tan could finish his words, the little emperor stood up and ran away.

As she ran, she did not forget to shout: "Mother has been obsessed with Taoism recently. It's rare for the old lady to have some hobbies. Sister, please don't go to the palace and disturb her meditation!"

It was as if she was afraid that Zhao Tan would really go to the palace and ask the Queen Mother to arrange a selection for him.

Zhao Tan looked at his fleeing back and sneered.

"Little guy, can't I control you?"

Although she said disdainfully, she did not forget to call Guizhi over: "Wait, you take two portions of Cherry Pastry to the palace, one for the emperor and one to my mother's palace."

"Yes."

Guizhi responded and prepared to leave, looking at Zhao Tan hesitantly, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
"what happened?"

Zhao Tan looked at Guizhi and asked curiously, "Do you have anything to say?"

Guizhi shook her head.

Soon she nodded again: "I just went out to buy some things and heard some news."

She looked towards the Liu residence next to her: "It's about the young lady from the Song family."
