The scheming empress starts by conquering men

Shaodian Sishui entered the mansion to have a meal. As Shuxiang had arranged in advance, the servants from the kitchen came to deliver the meal.

When he saw the old woman delivering the meal, Shaodian Si Shui paused slightly, his face calm and expressionless.

In fact, I secretly thought to myself, as expected!

The old woman came to Yuyi to join the army and also entered the mansion of the seventh sister.

It was Hua Qingmei, Hua Wuzhang's mother, the old woman selling feathers that he had seen in the city.

The moment Hua Qingmei saw Shaodian Sishui, she was stunned and looked a little excited, but she hid it well.

She lowered her head, looked at her nose and concentrated her mind, and served food to the prince and the sixth princess.

She thought to herself, fortunately the prince did not recognize her. It turned out that the Sixth Prince saved people based on his heart and did not remember anyone.

She glanced at the little girl sitting next to the Sixth Prince. She heard that this child was rescued by the Sixth Prince.

This child is so lucky to be favored by the Sixth Prince.

After the meal was served, Hua Qingmei left without saying a word as usual.

She ate without talking. During this meal, Shaodian Sishui almost acted as a feeder, constantly picking up food for the little girl.

Shaodian Ziqing was feeling jealous, so she picked up some food for him.

After the meal, Shaodian Ziqing saw that Shuxiang had not returned yet, so he said hello to Shaodian Sishui and went to look for her in person.

Shaodian Sishui took Shuxiang for a stroll in the courtyard to help digest the food.

As for Hua Qingmei, she hadn't thought about recognizing him now, but she would definitely recognize him if there was a chance in the future.

What she didn't expect was that Hua Qingmei actually stayed at Seventh Sister's house. What about her daughter and son-in-law?

And the token in her hand, how should she take it into her own hands?

Shaodian Sishui was not in a hurry to recognize each other, but Hua Qingmei couldn't help it.

While she was enjoying the scenery in the pavilion with her little baby, Hua Qingmei took some time to come over with some dessert.

"Greetings, Sixth Prince. This old servant has prepared some dessert for you. Please have a taste."

Hua Qingmei arranged the sweets for Shaodian Sishui and her eyes kept falling on her.

"Well, you are thoughtful." Shaodian Sishui picked up the dessert and gave it to the little girl. Seeing that Hua Qingmei had not left, he frowned slightly and thought for a moment before asking her, "Are you the new cook in the Seventh Sister's mansion?"

Hua Qingmei nodded; "Yes."

Shaodian Sishui smiled calmly and asked again, "Are you from the Yuyi tribe?"

Hua Qingmei shook her head and said, "Your Highness, I am not a barbarian, but I came from the city to join the army."

"Yicheng?" Shaodian Sishui was slightly stunned, frowning, and looked at her suspiciously, a little dazed, and asked unsurely; "Are you Hua Qingmei?"

Hua Qingmei's eyes lit up and she nodded quickly; "The benefactor is me."

His Highness finally recognized her.

Shaodian Sishui was somewhat surprised and even more unbelievable.

"Why did you come to Yuyi? Didn't I give you shell coins to stay in the city..." She paused and asked with a smile, "Did your daughter vomit pearls?"

Hua Qingmei nodded excitedly. "Thanks to your highness, my son is already over a month pregnant and is currently staying in Yuyi Castle to recuperate."

"That's great." Shaodian Sishui smiled and nodded and asked again; "Congratulations, you are going to be a grandmother."

"It's all thanks to your Highness." Hua Qingmei smiled sincerely and asked again, "Your Highness, do you still remember what you said?"

Shaodian Sishui paused slightly, then nodded.

"Remember, I said that I would give your granddaughter a name when she was born." She paused for a moment, then asked in confusion, "Why did you come to Yuyi instead of staying in Yicheng to take good care of your health?"

When Hua Qingmei heard her ask this, she could only tell her everything that had happened before.

Every time she spoke, she would secretly observe Shaodian Si Shui's expression.

When she heard that she had sneaked out of the city because she hated her and was caught up by the city officials and the token was given to her, she saw that His Highness had an indescribable look on his face.

It seemed that he didn't expect that the matter would be exposed so quickly, and there was even a hint of apology on his face.

Hua Qingmei smiled and said, "Your Highness, I have no intention of blaming you. You knew my background... That token is indeed very important to me."

"At that time, I thought Your Highness was..." tricking her into giving me the token.

She didn't say this out loud, but just sighed.

"It's all my fault that I don't know the good people. Please don't blame me, Your Highness."

Shaodian Sishui sighed slightly; "I don't blame you. I was also wrong in the beginning. I shouldn't have concealed my identity from you. As for the token..."

She sneered, "It's useless to me. I just want to live a peaceful life. When my second sister ascends the throne, I will be given a fiefdom. It's not bad to live in a corner."

Hua Qingmei frowned, disagreeing, and even a little angry that she compromised.

"Your Highness, how can you think so lowly of yourself? If she can get it, why can't you?"

Shaodian Sishui waved her hand; "Let's not talk about this."

She changed the subject.

"You come to the palace to do work, where is Wu Zhang?"

Hua Qingmei sighed, feeling anxious in her heart. The Sixth Prince was too weak to fight for it. She had never even thought about that position.

But if she had never thought about it, why did she buy and sell feathers again?

Her mind turned quickly, as if she had thought of something, and asked suspiciously.

"Your Highness, are you buying and selling feathers for your own benefit?"

Seeing her being so serious, Shaodian Sishui could only nod his head; "Not really, the feathers are bought and sold only for self-protection, and my second sister is also involved in the feathers matter, with my second sister's support, you don't have to worry."

really!

Hua Qingmei was shocked and said hurriedly, "Your Highness, this is not appropriate."

She guessed correctly. The Sixth Prince was not the only one who wanted to buy and sell feathers. Even the Second Prince was involved.

"Why is it inappropriate?" Shaodian Sishui asked in confusion.

Hua Qingmei said, "Your Highness, do you know that once the truth is revealed, who will that person choose to abandon between you and the Second Prince?"

That person refers to the empress.

Shaodian Sishui's expression paused for a moment, and he looked at her with a bitter smile on his face.

"You don't have to worry. I have confidence in my second sister. She will definitely protect me."

"Your Highness, you are confused!" Hua Qingmei scratched her head anxiously; "Since you already know the outcome, why do you still want to test people's hearts?"

The royal family is ruthless!

The family affection that the benefactor expects does not exist.

Shao Dian Hao Lan can protect his benefactor? No way, he would rather kill his benefactor.

Just from the fact that she had met Shaodian Haolan only a few times after coming to Yuyi, it was not difficult for her to see that the Second Princess was by no means as kind-hearted as the rumors said.

My benefactor is obviously a very smart person, so how could he be so confused between sisters?

Hua Qingmei really wanted to tell her benefactor what happened that year and how ruthless the royal family was, but in the end she said nothing.

She glanced at the little girl who had been listening to their conversation with her ears perked up, and winked at Shaodian Sishui.

"Your Highness, can you please move aside? I have something to say."

Shaodian Sishui glanced at the little girl, then looked at the old slave, and walked aside.

After Hua Qingmei caught up, she secretly took out the token from her bosom and whispered.

"Your Highness, this token is not the identity card passed down from my ancestors as I said in the city. It was entrusted to me by a noble before he fell off a cliff when I was young."

"She hopes that one day, I can meet a suitable noble and support that person to become emperor."

Shaodian Sishui looked at her in surprise, somewhat shocked, and said nothing, but looked her up and down.

She seemed to not understand why he said such things to her.

Hua Qingmei said anxiously, "Your Highness, I have never thought of using this token. Even if I die of poverty and starvation, or my granddaughter dies of illness, I have never thought of using this token."

"It's because I can't find a suitable candidate. All the nobles are devils who eat human blood buns. They are not worthy, even the royal family."
