Princess Against the World

The Queen Mother frowned: "Old Zaifu, what do you mean? Didn't the palace let you sit in the position of Zaifu?!"

Xiao Tongzhou shook his head quickly: "No, no, no! Queen Mother, you have misunderstood the meaning of the old minister! The old minister can't be tossed about anymore, but my Xiao family has talents, and I can work for you, Queen Mother!!"

Queen Mother: "..."

What is this old thing playing? !

Letting him take the position of prime minister is tantamount to pushing him to the highest peak of civil servants.

And he himself is the king of Dingjiang, almost on an equal footing with Ling Bufan, and belongs to the leader among the military officers.

In this way, it is tantamount to letting him stand at the highest level of civil and military officials at the same time.

But even so, he still pretended to be sick and did not go to court.

Now, he came here to show his loyalty, and wanted to push his descendants to serve him.

"Old Zaifu, what do you mean?!"

Xiao Tongzhou coughed again, as if he was about to die.

"Old queen, the bones of the old minister are about to end! If the old minister is finished, my Xiao family will also be finished!! Therefore, the old minister should watch the Xiao family stand up in his lifetime, and have the capital to fight against the Ling family. ! Otherwise, even if the old minister died, he would not rest in peace..."

These words, Xiao Tongzhou said sincerely, but did not move the empress dowager.

What she cared more about was the credibility of what the old guy said.

She had heard about the grievances between the Xiao family and the Ling family.

Otherwise, he would not have given up the old Zaifu's seat to him.

Looking at Xiao Tongzhou's appearance now, it seems that this is really the case, and I believe it a little bit in my heart.

"Okay! Ben Gong promises you! But, do your Xiao family have any available talents?!"

"Yes, yes!" Xiao Tongzhou quickly responded, nodding and bowing vigorously: "If the Queen Mother is interested, I can bring him to the Queen Mother for a review..."

The queen mother nodded indifferently: "That's fine! Bring it to my palace to have a look!"

"Yes! The old minister will leave first!"

Xiao Tongzhou responded with a wide smile, bowed and stepped back.

The moment he left the palace gate, the smile on his face disappeared instantly, he let out a long breath unconsciously, and raised his hand to wipe the sweat off his forehead.

so close! ! !

His eyes flickered, he looked at the carriage in the distance, and walked quickly.

Before anyone approached, the curtains of the car were already opened.

"Looking at the old Zaifu's appearance, everything should be going well, and it will be a success soon!"

Amid the slightly teasing laughter, Ling Luoyu leaned out half of her body.

The muscles on Xiao Tongzhou's face jumped violently, and he jumped into the carriage, looking a little embarrassed.

"Sir Ling, what should be said, I will follow your instructions and tell you everything!"

Ling Luoyu flipped her fingertips, and a white pill popped out.

"Don't worry, I keep my word, this is the antidote!"

Xiao Tongzhou couldn't wait to snatch the pill and stuff it into the mouth, only then did he feel a stone in his heart fall to the ground.

With sideways eyes, he looked at her with fear and guilt.

"Sir Ling, why did you come to me?!"

Early in the morning, before he got up from the bed, he was woken up by Ling Luoyu's slap.

In a daze, a elixir has entered the mouth.

And Ling Luoyu's threat also followed.

Either do something for her, or wait for the poison to die.

At the moment of life and death, what qualifications does he have to say "no"? ?

In desperation, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree, and ran to the Queen Mother to perform a play in fear.

"Xiao Tongzhou, in the capital, only your Xiao family and my Ling family have the deepest grievances, and your old man will be the most convincing!"
