Master Xiao left the palace and had not yet got on the carriage. Xiao Huaijin had already hurriedly followed. Just as he was about to speak, Master Xiao had waved his hand and signaled that Xiao Huaijin didn't have to say much. After being helped on the carriage, he waved and said, "Go up and talk!" Xiao Huaijin got on the carriage. The coachman shook the reins of the horse and drove forward. However, Xiao Huaijin couldn't wait to say, "Father, why are you today...!"

Master Xiao waved his hand, coughed, then took out a silk squid and wiped the corner of his mouth, looked at Xiao Huaijin lightly, and asked, "I ask you, will the emperor make your sister the queen?"

Xiao Huaijin was stunned, and then said hatefully: "I'm afraid... I'm afraid I won't!"

"That's it." Master Xiao said slowly: "The emperor's will have been decided. Even if he cannot become a concubine, your sister will not become the queen!"

Xiao Huaijin immediately said: "Father, it's okay if my sister can't become the queen. How can you agree to make Concubine Shu the queen? As long as you oppose it, even if the emperor wants to make Concubine Shu, he will not be able to make it."

Master Xiao smiled coldly and asked, "Then I ask you, why did Han Xuanchang oppose Concubine Shu as the queen at today's court meeting?"

Xiao Huaijin was speechless for a moment.

He really didn't know why such a strange thing happened.

"Han Xuanchang is not visible and does not leak water, but he is a rare wise person in the Han family!" Master Xiao sighed, "I underestimated Han Xuanchang in the past, and only thought Han Xuandao was the most cunning fox of the Han family. Today, it seems that Han Xuanchang is not weaker than Han Xuandao." He paused and shook his head and said, "The Han family's generations are all powerful characters. It is no accident that they can have the momentum today!"

Xiao Huaijin smiled coldly, "It's a pity that there is no Xiao Huaiyu in the Han family. No matter how many Han family members are, they can't compare to Huaiyu's finger!"

Master Xiao looked cold and snorted coldly, saying, "You all point to Huaiyu... Do you know that the safety of my Xiao family now depends on Huaiyu alone. The entire Xiao clan, except for Wanchang, can still stand alone, has no one to help me. This is not a blessing for my Xiao family!"

The "Wanchang" mentioned by Master Xiao is Xiao Tongguang's son and Master Xiao's nephew. Now he is in the position of Minister of Justice and is considered a relatively outstanding talent among the Xiao clan.

Xiao Huaijin lowered his head, feeling a little embarrassed, but he quickly looked up and asked, "Father said that Han Xuanchang was wise, where did he start? I don't know why Han Xuanchang opposed Concubine Shu as the queen?"

"Is your position as a queen a treasure?" Master Xiao smiled coldly, then coughed again. Xiao Huaijin hurried over and patted Master Xiao's back gently.

Master Xiao coughed for a while, wiped the corner of his mouth again, and then slowly said, "If your sister becomes the queen, that's fine, but the emperor's will definitely not sit in that position." After a pause, he said, "Except for your sister, no matter who sits in the queen's position, it will sit on the fire pit, and there is no benefit!"

"Where did my father start?"

"The disputes in the harem are not revealed, but the dangers are not weaker than the court." Master Xiao said slowly: "And many disputes in the harem often affect the court. The situation in the court sometimes even breaks the situation due to changes in the harem..."

Xiao Huaijin looked confused.

"When Shu became the queen, many people thought that this was the honor of the Han family and a blessing of the Han family. However, in my opinion, it was the opposite. When Han Shu became the queen, she would be the target of the harem. If I guessed it well, then the entire harem would regard Han Shu as an enemy. Without your sister coming forward, there would be many concubines who wanted to kill Han Shu and then go quickly." Master Xiao's voice was low, "Don't think that women were too kind. Their jealousy was unimaginable, and they had to deal with the enemy.

, That was an unscrupulous way, and the ruthless method was not inferior to that of a man. Han Shu was the queen, and she was not outstanding in terms of qualifications and talents... at least in the eyes of many concubines, which made the concubines in the palace even more jealous...!" He smiled coldly: "Don't see that the Hu family and the Fan family are close to the Han family. In the palace, women may not take the overall situation into consideration. The jealousy of Han Shu in their hearts will never belong to other concubines. What Han Shu has to face will be the trap of the entire harem... If you are not careful, you will be crushed to pieces..."

Xiao Huaijin frowned and said, "What my father meant is that Han Xuanchang opposed it in order to protect Han Shu?"

"This is naturally one of the reasons." Mr. Xiao said: "In terms of the overall situation, Han Xuanchang is still for the benefit of the entire Han family. Not to mention whether Han Shu will be framed and cause trouble in the harem to endanger the Han family, but after Han Shu became the queen, the Han family has gained favors and increased their strength on the surface, and some people have to consider themselves..."

"Who is my father talking about?"

"The Su family is naturally one of them." A cold smile appeared on the corner of Master Xiao's mouth: "Su Guanya has been wandering like a wandering soul. He wanted to sit and watch my Xiao family fight with the Han family and the fisherman gained benefits." He stroked his beard and said: "Su Guanya naturally hopes that the Han family has enough strength to fight with us, but he does not want the Han family to really get up. Once he realizes that the Han family is too powerful, it will inevitably begin to restrain the Han family. Before Han Shu is the queen, the strength of the Han family is in line with Su Guanya's heart, but once Han Shu is the queen, it will exceed the situation that the Su family has endured. The Su family has always regarded our Xiao family as a great enemy, but once this queen is established, they will inevitably start to guard against the Han family and hit the Han family behind it. That will never be missing."

"The Han family was just gaining power outside the palace. Now there is a queen in the palace, so the situation is very different." Master Xiao smiled faintly and said, "Do you think the Hu family and the Fan family are both vegetarian?"

"Hu family and Fan family?" Xiao Huaijin frowned and said, "They are all wearing pairs of pants!"

Master Xiao stroked his beard and smiled, "Are you really wearing a pair of pants?"

Xiao Huaijin said: "What my father means..."

"Let me ask you again, if you are Fan Yunao and Hu Xuexin, would you really be willing to be under the Han family?" Grand Master Xiao looked at Xiao Huaijin and asked lightly.

"Of course I don't want to!"

"If you were them, would you like to see the Korean clan being overwhelmed and be crushed to death by the Korean clan forever?"

Xiao Huaijin frowned, thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "The Hu family and the Fan family are also my century-old family in Dayan. Not to mention Hu Xuexin, but Fan Yunao is a person who is unwilling to be inferior to others, so he naturally does not want to be inferior to others."

Mr. Xiao showed a little relief and nodded, "You have some insights on how to understand this. Fan Yunao naturally would not be willing to be inferior to others. Don't look at Hu Xuexin and the Han family are close to each other. He is not a good person. The Hu family established a family with martial arts. In the bones of the Hu family, they are not willing to give up and form an alliance with other aristocratic families. It is only a forced one. The Hu family is the weakest among the nine major families of our Dayan country, but now they still have a seat in the court.

It can also be seen that the Hu family is a master of talent." After pausing, he pondered for a while, and then said: "Although the Hu family and the Fan family are now close to the Han family, they seem to be the same party, but they are actually scheming. These two families are strong for the Han family. What they hope to see is that the Han family has enough momentum to compete with our Xiao family. What they are happy to see is that our Xiao family and the Han family are both defeated and profitable. The least they want to see is that any of our two families will become stronger."

Xiao Huaijin said with some doubts: "Father, it's just that Han Shu became the queen. Is the matter so serious?" He lowered his voice: "Then the emperor is useless. What is a queen? How much will Han Shu become the queen really make the Han family powerful? Will it arouse the jealousy of major families?"

Master Xiao looked at Xiao Huaijin coldly and said lightly: "What is the queen? The queen is the mother of the country. The people of the world do not recognize their concubines, but they will recognize their mother of the country. Do you know how much people's hopes will Han Shu bring to the Han family as the queen?"

Xiao Huaijin smiled, but he didn't seem to agree.

"What's more important is that our concubine Shu still has a child in her belly." Master Xiao's eyes became cold: "If you give birth to a prince... the son of the queen, do you think it's important?"

Xiao Huaijin heard the profound meaning of Taishi Xiao's words and smiled disdainfully, "Can the emperor dare to depose the prince and establish another prince?"

Master Xiao held his dry fist and said coldly: "From ancient times, the prince may not be able to be the emperor!"

Xiao Huaijin frowned.

"In the past year, although the Han family has supported themselves, their strength has increased greatly in the court. Many officials have defected to their disciples and formed a party, but... in just one year, they have only grown and grown, and their foundation is not stable." Taishi Xiao said slowly: "Sometimes, it is not a good thing to grow too fast, and the foundation is unstable. If it is unstable, it will collapse faster. The Han family actually does not want to really confront my Xiao family in the court, but... they need the support of the emperor, so they must act like they will fight for life and death with my Xiao family. If not, the emperor will not support them. The Han brothers are all smart people, so they should

It should be clear that their foundation is unstable. If they have the chance, they want to act low-key...but the current situation is no longer allowed to do it." He looked at Xiao Huaijin and whispered: "But this time, the queen has pushed them to the forefront and became the thorn in the eyes of several major families. The other major families will never want to see the Han family becoming stronger inside and outside the palace. Moreover, they understand one truth more: The Han family is integrated inside and outside the palace. If the palace is stronger outside the palace, the palace will become stronger, so they will definitely start to restrain the Han family, at least not let the Han family have too strong power, so as not to see that there will be a situation in the palace that no one wants to see...!"

"What my father meant is that because Han Shu was established as queen, the Han family would be in trouble both inside and outside the palace?" Xiao Huaijin said excitedly: "The Su family, Hu family, and Fan family can all deal with the Han family?"

Master Xiao nodded and said, "It is certain to fall into a dilemma, and the Su family is certain to be constrained. But the Hu family and the Fan family... said that they would not openly break up against the Han family, but the support of these two families for the Han family will definitely be greatly reduced." He smiled and said, "Han Shu is in danger. Even if she becomes the queen, whether she can escape the open and secret arrows in the palace is unknown. Once she loses it and is crushed to pieces, the position of the queen will still be freed up. Some things do not belong to her... Even if she gets it for a while, it will only bring disaster."

Xiao Huaijin touched the thick beard under his chin and frowned and said in confusion: "Father, since Han Shu is the queen, it will put the Han family in a dilemma, then... Han Xuandao is cunning and can definitely understand the power of it, but why didn't he come forward in the court to stop it? Why was only Han Xuanchang the only one coming forward?"
