Chapter 480 Reborn, She Made a Profit
Wu Weiwei was brought back to her senses by Luo Xiner's shout.
Looking at Consort Xi, who had a worried expression, Wu Weiwei suddenly felt a pang of emotion.
In any case, she has become Wu Weiwei in this world.
Even if she was tricked into time travel, she has already gained a second chance at life.
Since she's caught in the vortex, she must break free from the constraints and live as the leading lady of this world!
"Mom, I'm fine!"
Upon hearing Wu Weiwei call her "Mother," Luo Xin'er burst into tears.
“My Vera…”
Wu Weiwei felt a little awkward being held tightly in someone's arms.
Having never experienced familial love before, she experienced what people call maternal love for the first time through Luo Xin'er.
Seeing the two embracing, Shao Zhan smiled.
It looks like he's going to have an older sister.
Thinking of Xiliang, Shao Zhan's brows furrowed involuntarily.
"Brother Zhan, are you unhappy that Mother acknowledged me?"
Wu Weiwei looked at Shao Zhan with a smile.
It was truly unexpected that the Crown Prince of Xiliang would be her half-brother.
Hearing Wu Weiwei's teasing tone, Shao Zhan chuckled.
"Elder sister, I'm overjoyed that you've accepted me and Mother Consort. How could I not be happy?"
only……
Before they were sent as envoys to Qingwu Kingdom, the Emperor did not know the purpose of their trip.
Shao Zhan wasn't worried about his father's reaction, since his father knew about his mother's past.
He knew that his mother always had someone in her heart, and he also knew that his mother had lost her eldest sister in her early years.
Moreover, without my mother, my father would probably have lost his life long ago.
His only worry was that if the Empress found out about this family reunion, she would definitely use it as an opportunity to make a big fuss.
At that time, I'm afraid his situation in Xiliang will become even more difficult.
Seeing the worry in her son's eyes, Consort Xi immediately understood.
"Zhan'er, are you worried about the Empress?"
After all, the Empress's third son is already twelve years old, and she has been making constant moves in the past two years, probably already harboring the ambition to have her son replace Zhan'er.
Having fought with Luo Qingqing for over ten years, he knew her character best.
"Mother, with you and my elder sister here, I have no fear of her or the Luo family!"
"The Luo family?"
Seeing the confusion in Wu Weiwei's eyes, Luo Xin'er sighed.
"Wei'er, you probably don't know about the animosity between the Luo family of Xiliang."
The Luo family my mother belonged to was originally a prominent clan in Xiliang, while the Luo family behind the Empress was actually a branch of the main family, consisting of the legitimate children who had committed offenses…
Since her father's tragic accidental death twenty years ago, the Luo family's main branch has grown rapidly.
With the emergence of Empress Luo Qingqing, the once insignificant collateral branch began to control the entire Luo family affairs.
The current General of Xiliang is Luo Yuan, the Empress's elder brother. He commands 300,000 troops in Xiliang, nearly half of the region's military strength.
As for the remaining 300,000 troops, 200,000 were under the command of General Xia, who was Xia Sipei, the adopted son of Xiahou Yuan, the national advisor of Xiliang.
Although Xia Sipei has not yet taken sides, it is common knowledge that Luo Yuan and Grand Preceptor Xia have a close relationship; it's just unknown what the reasons behind this are...
As for the other 100,000 troops, they were the Imperial Guards under the emperor's control.
Wu Weiwei frowned after hearing her mother's analysis.
"So, this means that Zhan Di's position as crown prince is just a formality and not secure?"
"My elder sister is right, there is indeed a risk that my position as crown prince could be overturned!"
However, he received news that his third brother was interested in Xia Nishang, the daughter of the Imperial Advisor.
Xia Sipei has always admired his adopted sister, Xia Nishang. If it weren't for the earlier interference from Lady Xiahou Yuan, he probably would have married Xia Nishang long ago.
"Heh, interesting, but...?"
Wu Weiwei looked at Shao Zhan.
"Brother Zhan, where did you get these 100,000 troops to help me today?"
Shao Zhan looked at his mother.
Luo Xin'er smiled faintly.
"Wei'er, of the 100,000 troops your brother Zhan led today, 30,000 were sent by the emperor to protect me."
As for this other thing, I borrowed it from my family to protect my son!
"I see!"
I never expected that they would go to such lengths and risk their lives to come here just to recognize me.
Wu Weiwei was somewhat moved.
She looked at the two of them.
"Mother, Zhan Di, today you have helped me protect Qingwu Kingdom. One day, I will surely send Zhan Di to the throne of Xiliang!"
Consort Xi and Shao Zhan exchanged a glance and smiled knowingly.
It seems that Vera has completely accepted them.
Xuanfa Hall.
Liu Shuning disguised herself as a palace maid and secretly sneaked into the palace.
Her original plan was to have Andersen send people to kidnap Wu Weiwei, but she miscalculated.
I never expected that Wu Weiwei would have so many powerful people helping her.
Seeing that he was no match for her, Andersen had no choice but to order his men to escort her to safety.
But Liu Shuning was not willing to give up.
If it weren't for Wu Weiwei's appearance, she would definitely be the empress of the most noble man in the world.
But because of Wu Weiwei, she has become what she is now.
Fueled by hatred, Liu Shuning was unwilling to flee in such a sorry state.
Ignoring the advice of Andersen's men, she threatened them to escort her to the island.
Catch the thief first to catch the king.
If Andersen was unwilling to do something, then she was the only one who could do it.
Qingzhu fell into a coma due to poisoning and was then abducted by the Luo family and taken back to Xiliang.
If she can kill Wu Weiwei, then Qingwu Kingdom will be leaderless and will definitely be conquered by her eldest princess mother.
Looking at the dagger gleaming with blue light in her hand, Liu Shuning's eyes revealed deep hatred.
She carefully hid herself in the inner room.
“Listen to me, all of you.”
Today, this hall is reserved for distinguished guests. You all need to clean it thoroughly, making sure every corner is spotless and not a speck of dust is left behind…”
"Aunt Qiu, don't worry! We'll definitely clean it up properly!"
Upon hearing the news of Qingwu Kingdom's great victory, the palace maids were naturally excited.
They heard that the reason why Qingwu Kingdom had won such a great victory was because the Princess's attack was unpopular.
Although their Qingwu Kingdom was a newly established small country, it had the support of the people, so Heaven blessed them and they won!
If that's the case, then it proves that our lord is destined to be the phoenix.
With such a ruler, how could Qingwu not grow stronger in the future?
After the head maid left, the young palace maids began to gossip among themselves.
"By the way, have you heard?"
The people staying here today are Consort Xi, the most favored concubine of the Emperor of Xiliang, and His Highness the Crown Prince. I never expected that our monarch would associate with such people..."
"That's right. Besides the Western Liang Kingdom, we also have the Crown Prince to help us. The Western Liang Kingdom is a powerful and prosperous nation."
How fortunate we, the Qingwu Kingdom, are to have made friends with them…
outside the temple.
Hearing the murmurs of the crowd, Ling Fu, who was following behind Wu Weiwei, smiled.
“My lord, listen to how highly they regard you.”
If we can annex the other small countries nearby, we will naturally be able to stand alongside Xiliang and Dawei..."
"Lingfu, shut up..."
Upon hearing Lingfu's outrageous words, Wanqiu quickly covered her mouth.
"Your Majesty, Lingfu is talking nonsense, please don't take it seriously..."
Wu Weiwei looked at Ling Fu, whose mouth was covered, and smiled, "Wanqiu, what Ling Fu said makes sense. Strengthening the Qingwu Kingdom is essential, otherwise we can only passively take a beating..."
"By the way, I heard that Chen Dazhuang and his men have captured Andeshan. Are there any survivors?"
