"Your Highness, why did you not talk to his majesty ?" She asked Concubine Chu. Wasn\'t this the perfect opportunity for her to get close to His Majesty, the Emperor, and then kick Liu Hui Ying aside? Why was she the one who was leaving? Shouldn\'t Concubine Chu be sticking close to his majesty while trying to get his attention?

Nanny Meng was going crazy, but Concubine Chu, on the other hand, was rather calm. She looked at the front and then said calmly, "What do you mean by that Nanny? Why should I stay when his majesty himself asked me to leave?"

"But he is your husband! I mean, you are the concubine of his majesty, surely you can stay and speak with him. Right?" Nanny Meng was on the verge of ripping her hair off her head as she could not understand what was going on with Concubine Chu.

She was taking a track that Nanny Meng could not understand.

"Hmph, what kind of husband is he? He even poisoned his wife and almost killed her," Concubine Chu snorted, causing eclipses to form on top of Nanny Meng\'s head.

So what if he did? Doesn\'t the death of Liu Hui Ying mean that the competition was getting reduced? Why did she have to worry about Liu Hui Ying\'s death?

"Your Highness——"

"Nanny, I know what I am doing," Concubine Chu sighed and turned to look at Nanny Meng. She knew that Nanny Meng was only looking out for her as her father wanted her to become the Empress from a meagre imperial concubine, but Concubine Chu did not want to become the Empress.

Last night, what she saw made her even more reluctant to become the Empress. How everyone was waiting to watch Liu Hui Ying fall. It was scary, terrifying. It was as if the second the Liu family fell, Liu Hui Ying would be reduced to nothing. The crown that she wore on her head came with dangers and risks that Chu Yanqing did not believe that she could take.

Her family was a small family of officials, and she could not fight back as harshly as Liu Dong Ming did last night. In fact, given how much of a coward her father was, she did not believe that he could ever stand up for her as Liu Dong Ming did for Liu Hui Ying.

Liu Dong Ming fought for his heirs and family more than money and power. Her father, on the other hand, cared about only one thing and that was power and more power, if not, why would he keep on egging her by sending letters that asked her to seduce his majesty and try to become the Empress?

"But——"

"Nanny Meng!" Chu Yanqing put a sternness in her tone as she turned and looked at the elderly woman. "If you want power, you need to know whether you have the skills or the ability to protect it. What happened to Her Majesty last night, you saw it, right? Do you think that you or my father can fight against that?"

Last night, Chu Yanqing saw the old nanny following Liu Hui Ying. Nanny Gong, if she was not wrong, was the name of the old woman. Chu Yanqing knew better than the rest how professional and skilled Nanny Gong was when she was young, her grand grandmother was the Nanny of the Great Grand Dowager and similar that, and her mother was the Nanny of the Empress Dowager.

It was said that she gave her life up to protect Empress Dowager.

Nanny Gong, who saw the loyalty of her mother and grandmother, was a loyal servant through and through. Given how much everyone wanted her to train their daughters, if she had escaped, nanny Gong would have been accepted and appointed by many.

But Nanny Gong stayed with Liu Hui Ying until the verdict in fact, Chu Yanqing was sure that Nanny Gong would have headed up the guillotine for Liu Hui Ying.

She had seen the determination according to the old woman when she stepped inside the court last night. Something that Nanny Meng lacked.

Similarly, Liu Dong Ming had stayed calm in the face of danger and found someone to help him out in the time of need. Even when he was locked up, he saved his family —— with her father\'s wits, Chu Yanqing was sure that there was nothing that he would be able to do if he were to face such a situation.

So, on what basis and confidence did they want her to become the Empress?

And even if Liu Hui Ying was going to be replaced, it would not be her turn to become the Empress.

Nanny Meng pursed her lips, she did not have any response to this question, as she really did not have the guts to face execution as Nanny Gong did. In fact, she was sure that if something like that had happened to Chu Yanqing, she would have run away at the fastest possible speed.

Seeing that Nanny Meng had gone silent, Chu Yanqing shook her head before turning to walk away. However, as soon as she strode down the path, she ended up crossing paths with Ji Yu who had arrived to congratulate Liu Hui Ying.

And her mood soured.
