Chapter 1745: Too Much Sharpness
"You and I are both useful people. Now I am no longer useful, but you are in your prime."
Lan Chuqian coughed. Although he was in good spirits, his health was not that good.
She said softly, "Being with the emperor is like being with a tiger. In the royal family, no matter how well you do or how careful you are, you can never guarantee that you will not anger the emperor."
"Could it be that what I said to her that day made her unhappy?" Gu Yunxi felt a little uneasy.
At this moment, she had many concerns in this palace, and she couldn't just leave on her own.
Given my mother’s current condition, it would be more than easy to escape from the imperial city, or even Beiling.
"You're not making her unhappy, but making her more aware that you are capable of much more than she thought."
It is never a good thing to show off too much. If such a useful person cannot be kept by your side and used for your own purposes, if he goes to another country, he will become your enemy.
"The relationship between you and Xiao Xuanzi is a thorn in her majesty's heart. If you are willing to stay in Beiling and become Her Majesty the Queen, then it will naturally be a good thing for her. Otherwise, she is afraid that you may not go to Nanling and become the Queen of Nanling."
Jun Yexuan is now the emperor of Nanling. If she were to be by Jun Yexuan's side, then the position of queen would most likely be hers.
"She is afraid that by then, you will become the enemy."
Gu Yunxi understood. That day she discussed with Her Majesty the Queen about who would inherit the throne next.
Her Majesty the Queen did not express her opinion in the end, not because what she said was wrong, but on the contrary, because what she said made so much sense!
Letting go a person who can fight wars, govern the country, and understand people's hearts may not be a disaster.
She is so young! She can't think things through as thoroughly as her mother does!
"Xixi, it's not your problem. It's just that you treat others too sincerely and don't consider the ill intentions of others."
Although Her Majesty the Queen is the mother of this body, to Lan Chu, only Gu Yunxi is her true blood relative.
The most important thing is, for someone like Her Majesty the Queen, who grew up in the royal family and has been immersed in the royal family for decades, family affection is sometimes really not that important.
"It's not that she doesn't have feelings. Sometimes, she will even show her true feelings, but she will calm down eventually. When she calms down, the country is more important than anything else."
"I understand." Gu Yunxi lowered her eyes, still feeling a little sad in her heart.
She is still too naive.
How could a woman who is Her Majesty the Queen have so much sincerity and affection like an ordinary person?
Your Majesty cannot be blamed for this. If anyone is to be blamed, it can only be blamed on this position.
It's lonely at the top, and there are many things that Your Majesty cannot choose on his own.
"Mom, let's..."
"Wait until I die, then you can leave." Lan Chu looked at Gu Yunxi and blinked.
Gu Yunxi bit her lip for a while before nodding: "Okay! I understand!"
...In the following days, Gu Yunxi had nothing to do, so she stayed by Lan Chu's side all day long.
Her Majesty comes often.
Three generations would even chat about daily life. Although Gu Yunxi would not be involved in state affairs for the time being, as long as His Majesty asked, she would tell him everything she knew.
Her Majesty the Queen saw her abilities more clearly, and was indeed even more reluctant to let her go.
It was a long time later that Xiao Yuanzi couldn't help asking Lan Chu, "Sir, didn't you ask His Highness to be more restrained? But why, when I saw His Highness recently, he was even more reckless in giving advice to the Queen?"
