Shrewd Wife Of Lin Brothers

However, Old Lady Su still said with a frown, "What if you fail? I mean that would be the end of our clan." Chapter Find:

Su Yiqian smiled and shook her head before saying, "How can this be the end of our clan? I will give birth to the royal child no matter what. If his majesty tries anything, I will threaten him with the life of the child." She rubbed her belly and then said, "You are forgetting Mother, his majesty injured himself when he was fighting with the late emperor.

It's really difficult for him to get a woman pregnant. If not for the fact that I am fertile and could easily get pregnant with the child, his majesty wouldn't have impregnated me. He will not take any risk."

"With this child as my life-saving talisman, I will protect our family. No matter whether it's a girl or a boy."

She was tired of being looked down on and suppressed at every point. It was better for her to be ruthless than to be stepped on her head by everyone. She knew that she was going to take a major risk if she was to overthrow the Empress but Su Yiqian thought that it was better than anything that was happening now.

Old Lady Su asked with a careful voice, "But what if the Emperor do not wish to change the Empress then what are we supposed to do?"

She really did not want her daughter to take a risk which could lead her to the guillotine. However at the same time, Old Lady Su knew that her daughter was meant for bigger things, she did not teach her daughter so many lessons and let her grow among the aristocratic ladies just for her to become the concubine of the Emperor.

Thats right. She knew that her daughter would one day marry into the Imperial family which was why Old Lady Su taught everything to her daughter.

She was prepared for her daughter to become the Empress but then his majesty brought the current Empress into the equation and threw all her plans in the gutters.

Su Yiqian replied softly, "Mother, there is no such thing as an Emperor not listening to his courtiers. The Empress has nothing other than a long history of scholars."

"But I am different. My grandfather is the Duke of the Finance Ministry and my father is the vice chancellor. At such times when the Imperial family is in turmoil and the treasury is being emptied, the imperial court needs an Empress who can bring more money to the imperial court. Not a woman who only knows how to spend her time at the Phoenix palace and drink tea while reading leisurely."

" Then why don't we make the courtiers to make a decision? They would surely make me the Empress instead of the current one."

Her father and maternal grandfather all held great powers in their hands. Unless the Emperor agrees, it would mean rebellion.

Moreover what kind of love did the Emperor have for the Empress anyway? If he loved the Empress would he have made her pregnant?

With her beauty and tactics, Su Yiqian was sure that she would make the Emperor forget the Empress. After that, it would be the turn of the Crown Prince.

She then added, "Whats more Mother, once I am the Empress we can deal with the courtiers who always target Father." She could also swipe that woman named Su Wan and the Lin brothers.

Second Master Su turned to look at Old Lady Su and said, "I think sister's plan is good. You should help her accomplish her dream."

He needed to get his revenge. He lost his arms and could never pick up a brush ever, the Emperor must pay for this!

Old Lady Su sighed and then nodded, "All right you two. I will talk to your father in a few days."

Her daughter was definitely wiser than the rest. She had already thought everything through. If the imperial treasury remained empty then it was easy for them to manipulate the court.

With her personality, she did deserve to be the Empress. It was indeed something to fight for.

What was more her son's future was already lost, if her daughter could become the Empress then she would be able to help her brother as well.

On the other hand, Old Lord Su was going crazy. He went to look for one physician and then another. He hoped that someone would be able to find at least something but he couldn't find anything.

In the end, the news of him doing such a thing with Eunuch Xi spread all over the capital. It was as if someone had placed the news on a flying chariot because the entire capital knew about what he did to Eunuch Xi by the time Old Lord Su returned to his house.

When the rumours spread all over the capital almost everyone believed it. After all, they have all heard about how Old Lord Su turned Eunuch Xi into a half-man from a complete man.

Thus the earlier rumours along with the following news caused everyone to believe that Old Lord Su had done something unreasonable to Eunuch Xi.

Thus when Old Lord Su was called to the court earlier the next day, he felt his heart jump. He knew that the matter was not going to be settled easily. However, even if he wanted to escape there was nothing that he could do, what was he supposed to tell? That eunuch Xi deliberately did such a thing with him?

The one who was the victim was Eunuch Xi!

Even if he wanted to say that it was Eunuch Xi, Old Lord Su could not bring himself to do so as he knew that no matter how ruthless Eunuch Xi was, he would not degrade himself like this.

Sure enough, when he arrived at the court, he met with a bunch of disdainful looks. Half of them were contemptuous because he had turned a perfect man into a eunuch and half of them were filled with disdain because he liked man.

Old Lord Su wanted to say that there was no such thing but he did not because he knew that no one would believe him!
