Chapter 792 Friendship
Fang Lingyi volunteered.
"Your Majesty, please be at ease. I will prepare some medicine to help you recover."
"Being pregnant and keeping the baby safe is not a difficult task. It is just hard work for you, the queen, to give birth to a wise ruler for the world and to give birth to a son for the emperor."
Lin Ran's painting is steadfast and she holds the jade in her arms.
"It is my duty to eliminate the corrupt officials, consolidate the country, and continue the royal family."
Everyone shouted in unison.
"Your Majesty is selfless and righteous."
Lin Ranhua asked in confusion.
"When will you get pregnant and when will you give birth? How do you grasp the timing?"
Fang Lingyi mentioned this matter effortlessly, and remained humble in her words.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. We will work together to come up with a prescription and ensure the success of the plan."
Lin Ran painted with sincerity.
"Thank you all."
"The drug is very potent. It doesn't matter if I suffer. As long as it doesn't harm the heir to the throne, it's fine."
Fang Lingyi was calm and composed.
"How can you bear to hurt the queen?"
"I will consider the medicine and put the Empress and the heir first. I will never slack off."
Lin Ranhua seemed to be lost in thought.
"Master Fang, maybe there is a way to make me pregnant with twins?"
Fang Lingyi was stunned.
"there is."
"Excuse me, Madam, what is your thought?"
Lin Ranhua was worried.
"I thought, if one person is useless, you can train another one."
"Just in case, since they are both incompetent, I have decided to ask the Emperor to issue an order to allow someone from the Fang clan to take their place."
Fang Lingyi was frightened when she heard this.
"Your Majesty, we have no intention of usurping power. We swear to be your subjects until our death."
Everyone followed suit and expressed their opinions.
"I am the same as you."
Fang Lingxiang was meticulous and helpful in providing comfort.
"One prince or princess is enough. More than one is not good. There is a risk of sibling rivalry."
"Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about his talent."
"Your Highness, you may not know that the Fang clan has continued to exist, and everyone has excellent strategies, because our ancestors developed a good recipe to ensure that the inheritance is excellent."
"As long as your majesty takes the good medicine on time, the heir will be able to inherit the talents and looks of the monarch and empress, and with the added training, he will be perfect. Why worry about not having a wise monarch?"
"This method is a secret of the Fang clan. According to our ancestral teachings, it is not allowed to be passed on to outsiders unless under special circumstances. Please keep it secret, Madam."
"It's not that my clan keeps the good stuff to themselves and don't want to share it with the world. It's just that the selection of medicine is very particular, and each person is different. It's difficult for ordinary people to learn how to use medicine, and my clan is busy with the government and can't take care of everyone. I'm afraid that they will use medicine carelessly, which will cause damage to their bodies and their lives. Therefore, the ancestors left a message not to make it public."
Lin Ranhua has a pure and innocent face.
"Okay, I'll keep it a secret."
"My son, can you only inherit my talent and beauty, and not your talent?"
Fang Lingyi was helpless.
"My lady is joking."
"The prince and princess are born to the queen, so they naturally inherit her talent and appearance."
Lin Ranhua was filled with sorrow and sighed.
"Alas, I am afraid that we are not smart enough."
Fang Lingyi comforted and encouraged him without losing love and respect.
"My lady, please don't underestimate yourself."
"Your Majesty, you are respected by all officials and are a role model for all people. We cannot compare with you."
"I am inferior and feel ashamed of myself."
The friend had too low self-esteem, so Fang Renshu quickly changed the subject to prevent her from getting deeper into trouble.
"There is something that I need your Majesty to negotiate with."
Lin Ranhua paid attention and was successfully diverted by her.
"What's the matter?"
Fang Renshu hits the nail on the head.
"If a prince or princess is born, Gu Mengzhen will not tolerate it."
Lin Ran painted a frown with worried eyes.
"Yes, that's right. What if he harms the emperor?"
Fang Renshu offered suggestions.
"I will contact all the ministers in advance and arrive as soon as possible on the day of the expedition to read out the imperial edict and ensure that the prince and princess are safe."
"However, when Gu Mengzhen is in power, there are too many dangers and obstacles, and things may change. Therefore, please seduce Gu Mengzhen appropriately, so that he will temporarily put aside his jealousy and involuntarily care for your children."
"This is a precaution. Not only will the prince and princess be worry-free on the day of their sacrifice, but in the future, when Gu Mengzhen plots, he will also feel uncomfortable."
Fang Lingxiang was generous in her praise.
"Shu'er's great idea."
She improvised, added details, and made careful plans.
"In addition, Your Majesty can also appropriately exaggerate how deep the friendship between the Emperor and Gu Mengzhen is."
Lin Ran's painted spring is as white as jade, flowing in a trance.
"Why?"
Fang Lingxiang understood the meaning.
"Gu Mengzhen hates the emperor, but he also has true feelings."
"Since it comes from the mouth of the Empress, he is easy to trust. This plan will be of great use in the future. When the Emperor is alive, Gu Mengzhen will definitely not cherish the brotherhood, but when the Emperor passes away, he will definitely miss it."
"As time went by, he thought of the old friendships and watched the princes and princesses grow up. Unconsciously, he began to place his affection on them."
Lin Ran's paintings are respectful to the wise and humble.
"Thank you for your advice."
"Excuse me, what should I do specifically?"
How to bravely die for justice, how to seduce Gu Mengzhen, how to express friendship, etc., the people of the Fang clan explained in detail without any mistakes or omissions.
If there are any parts that are not understood, the four people who are currently communicating with the outside world, Fang Che, Fang Lingyi, Fang Linhao and Fang Renshu, will help broaden the thinking and analyze and explain Lin Ran's paintings for you.
Lin Ranhua worked hard to understand the key points of the accounting policies, memorized them completely, returned to the palace in seclusion, and reported to Yan Yumo.
Then he passed on the message, told them about the heroic plan of sacrificing one's life, and asked the relatives of the Yan and Lin tribes if they had any objections.
As Lin Ranhua said, they had no choice but to agree.
Fang Renshu found out Gu Mengzhen's whereabouts and secretly reported it to Lin Ranhua.
Lin Ranhua changed into folk clothes and went out of the palace with her personal maid Yi Xi. They visited the teahouse where Gu Mengzhen was, and drank some fragrant tea, deliberately letting him overhear their conversation between master and servant.
Yi Xi pretended to be disgusted.
"There are many teahouses in Shengjing, why did the master choose this one?"
"Please forgive me for my mistake. This teahouse is so simple and shabby. How can it be worthy of the master's noble status? How can it win the master's favor?"
After being guided by the Fang clan members, Lin Ran's acting was particularly realistic.
"In the past, I was hesitant and didn't dare to come, but now, I finally muster up the courage."
As the Queen's confidant, Yi Xi also received guidance and was able to cooperate with the Queen in her strategies with ease.
"Master, why are you answering questions that are not relevant? I am a stupid servant and I am confused."
Lin Ran's painting looks like it shows he is suffering.
"This is a secret. No one knows it except me."
"I have been silent for many years and I am so depressed. If you are willing to listen, I will speak out once, and maybe it will help me feel better."
Seeing her master sad, Yi Xi scowled.
"Master, please speak. I am all ears."
Lin Ran painted and told the story as if it were true.
"My young man likes the tea and snacks here and comes here often to taste them."
Yi Xi was slightly startled.
"Master, do you have such a hobby?"
Lin Ranhua shook her head.
"My young man is not him, but..."
Yi Xi was frightened and interrupted her quickly.
"Master, be careful with your words!"
Lin Ran painted a sad face.
"You don't want to listen?"
Yi Xi was worried.
"I am willing to listen, but please be careful, my master, for walls have ears."
Lin Ranhua laughed at herself.
"Oh, now that I'm here, what am I afraid of?"
"My young man was born into a noble family, but he was always neglected. His monthly allowance was not much since he was young, so he could not afford good tea."
"After that, he was favored by his uncle. Although his life improved, habits were hard to change, and he still came here to enjoy tea and snacks."
"I saw him from afar for fifteen years. Since then, I have never forgotten him. I have secretly understood his preferences from time to time to comfort my thoughts."
"Xi, I have already made an engagement with my husband. I am destined not to marry him."
"I never asked him about his feelings. Perhaps, it was just my wishful thinking and he avoided me."
"I guess, for the rest of my life, I will never be able to express my feelings to him..."
