Children of Loulan

Chapter 198 Xilin's Plan

Xilin chuckled: "Since there is no evidence, then we will fabricate evidence for him and make up a witness for him!"

Aunt Aoi said respectfully, "Yes!"

Xilin pondered for a moment: "Remember, the witness cannot be alive and well, intact, he must be the kind that is dying, hanging by a thread, and will die after only having time to say a word."

Aunt Kui immediately understood the deep meaning: "Yes, I understand! I will send someone to arrange it right away, and I will make sure that Prince Xin hears the news he deserves to hear."

Xilin nodded slightly to show her satisfaction, and then asked, "Is there any news from Concubine Ru?"

Aunt Aoi replied respectfully, "No news has come yet."

Xilin frowned, seeming a little dissatisfied, but soon relaxed her brows and said, "Don't worry, this Concubine Ru is hiding deep. After I deal with Concubine Xian, I will slowly settle accounts with her."

Xiang Gui, who was standing by, looked puzzled and couldn't help asking, "Madam, are you saying that Concubine Ru had a hand in that matter?"

Xilin sneered: "If the Queen and Concubine Xian fight each other and both suffer losses, who will benefit the most?"

Xianggui suddenly realized: "So that's how it is, then should we..."

Xilin interrupted her: "Don't worry, deal with the current situation first."

Aunt Kui looked at Xilin with a worried look on her face and advised: "Madam, given your current physical condition, it is really not suitable for pregnancy. Why don't you wait a little longer?"

Xilin raised her eyebrows, with a determined light flashing in her eyes: "Wait? I have been waiting for three whole years, and I can no longer endure the torment of waiting. Those who killed my mother will not be able to escape punishment."

Aunt Kui looked embarrassed and anxiously advised: "But, Madam, you have to take care of your own health first!"

Xilin's voice was filled with grief and determination: "My mother has passed away for three years. If I can't avenge her, what's the point of keeping this broken body?"

Aunt Kui said hurriedly: "Okay, Madam, please calm down and don't hurt yourself because of your emotions."

As she spoke, she poured a cup of hot tea for Xilin. The steaming aroma of the tea filled the air, as if it could relieve people's fatigue and stress. Xilin took the cup and took a sip, feeling the warm liquid sliding down her throat, bringing a touch of comfort.

After Xilin calmed down, she asked with a bit of contempt in her tone: "How is that old woman?"

Aunt Kui replied respectfully, "He's still paralyzed in bed, but I heard he's been well cared for over the past two years and is in much better spirits!"

Xilin snorted coldly, with a hint of coldness in her eyes: "Humph, I really underestimated her. Her own daughter was humiliated to death, but she can still live happily."

Aunt Kui lowered her head slightly and said softly: "Then I will make some arrangements so that she can't live so happily!"

Xilin sneered, "But don't hurt her life. Let her enjoy the days that remain."

She blew on the tea and continued, "My good father has been the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue for several years. I'm afraid he must be tired of it. Why don't I give him a new job?"

Aunt Kui asked tentatively, "Madam, do you want to change the master up or down?"

Xilin's eyes were cold, and she said calmly: "Of course it's down, up, is he worthy?"

Xiang Gui, who was standing by, couldn't help but frown after hearing this and asked doubtfully, "But, the imperial harem and the previous dynasty have always been checks and balances on each other. If there is no Minister of Revenue, will your situation in the palace be..."

Xilin smiled slightly, her eyes firm and confident: "What the king hates most is the collusion between the harem and the former dynasty. If my father is demoted, he will only trust me more. If I can achieve the highest position like the prime minister." She sneered, "Humph, then I will be like the virtuous concubine and will never have my own biological children in my life!"

Xianggui was shocked when she heard this, but she stopped talking in time. She never expected that the reason why Concubine Xian couldn't have children was because of the king's secret manipulation. Xilin glanced at Aunt Kui, then turned around and asked, "Aunt, how are the people we trained outside?"

Aunt Kui replied, "Madam, the first batch is ready for use, but there are not many of them, only eight. And they have only received three years of training, so I'm afraid they are not yet qualified for some important tasks."

Xilin pondered for a moment and said, "It doesn't matter. As long as one or two of them are very loyal, it will be enough. As for the others, you can arrange them to some less important places and let them do some small things. However, make sure to give them enough benefits and rewards."

Aunt Kui nodded and said, "Okay, ma'am. I will arrange this matter as soon as possible and make sure they get the treatment they deserve." After that, she turned and left, ready to handle the matter according to Xilin's request.

Xilin watched Aunt Kui leave. She sipped her tea and savored the fragrance quietly, but she had already started to plan her next move. After avenging her mother, she would have the highest power and status in Loulan!

Hanguli returned to Cuihua Court and kept thinking about every word that Aidil had said. Although she knew clearly that Aidil wanted to deceive her and hoped that she could become his insider, she also had to worry that once she lost her usefulness in the future, it would be difficult to guarantee that the Queen and King Xuan would not kill her.

At this moment, Baier walked to Hanguli with joy on his face and asked excitedly: "Miss, we are going to eat fish tonight! The kitchen bought a very large fish today, saying that it is going to make soup for the prince to nourish his body. But only part of the fish meat is needed to make soup, so what should we do with the rest? Braise it or steam it?"

Hanguli smiled and replied, "Then how do you want to eat?"

Bayer thought seriously for a moment, then said, "As for me, I want to eat both braised and steamed food."

Dar, who was standing by, heard their conversation and immediately came over and said, "Huh, you only know how to eat, you are such a greedy cat!"

Hanguli laughed out loud after hearing this: "Haha, it's a good thing to like eating. If you want to eat all of it, you can ask the kitchen to buy another one and steam the whole fish. Your Majesty can braise the rest."

When Bayer heard that the fish could be eaten braised or steamed, her eyes lit up and she clapped her hands excitedly: "Okay, okay, I'll ask the buyer to buy the fish right away." After saying that, she ran out like a gust of wind.

Dar watched his sister run out so happily, shook his head helplessly, then turned to look at Hanguli and said with a hint of reproach: "Miss, you spoil her too much!"

Hanguli smiled slightly, with a hint of doting in her eyes: "When we were in Yuexiju before, we could only eat fish during the Chinese New Year, and you always saved the best for me. But now the hard times are over, since she likes to eat, let her eat more. Don't worry, I have plenty of money."

After hearing this, Dar felt very warm in her heart. She nodded gently, "Yes, young lady is right." Then, she remembered something and said with a smile, "Young lady, I will go and make you a pot of tea. This was just brought by the servants of the palace. They said that the prince specially sent it here. Please try it."

Hanguli smiled and replied softly, "Okay."
