Everyone Wants to Pamper the Lucky Daughter
Chapter 429 - Chapter 429: Chapter 427: Second Imperial Princess’s Goal_1Chapter 429: Chapter 427: Second Imperial Princess’s Goal_1
“The Crown Princess is impulsive and hot-tempered, which doesn’t please the Empress. In comparison, the Second Imperial Princess is smooth and tactful, and better at winning the Empress’s favor.”
“After the Crown Princess was imprisoned for poisoning, the Second Imperial Princess enjoyed some popularity for a while. Many ministers speculated that the Empress would pass the position of Crown Princess to her, and many people secretly tried to curry favor with her.”
“However, unexpectedly, the Empress didn’t seem to have any intention of selecting a new Crown Princess. Instead, she favored the Noble Lord even more and listened to his advice. The Second Imperial Princess, in a moment of anger, poisoned the Noble Lord during a palace night banquet, intending to assassinate him.”
“The poisoning of the Noble Lord also implicated the Little Prince. The Empress was furious and ordered the Qilin Guards to kill all the Shadow Guards that the Second Imperial Princess had secretly trained for years, destroying her hopes of becoming the Crown Princess.”
“At this point, the Second Imperial Princess finally saw the truth and kept a low profile, hiding in the Princess’s residence for a period of time.”
Little Kingfisher spoke in great detail, and also mentioned the Third Imperial Princess.
“As for the Third Imperial Princess, she is cautious and discreet, not ostentatious like the Crown Princess nor as cunning as the Second Imperial Princess. She doesn’t please the Empress as much and doesn’t hold a high prestige among officials.”
“Actually, according to bird informants, the Third Imperial Princess is not as simple as she appears. Though she is not born of the Emperor, her family background cannot be underestimated.”
“Her maternal grandfather is the current Prime Minister, holding high-ranking office. Her two elder uncles both serve in the military, one as the Imperial Guard Commander responsible for guarding the Imperial Palace, the other in charge of maintaining the security of Capital City.”
“The fact that the Empress entrusts the responsibility of guarding the Imperial Palace and Capital City to her relatives shows her trust in her.”

“Did the Second Imperial Princess deliberately let the portrait of the Founding Empress fall into the hands of others? What is her purpose?”
Lin Qingluo was concerned about the portrait. She wanted to know the Second Imperial Princess’s true intentions.
“Yes.”
Little Kingfisher answered crisply, “Her target is the Noble Lord. The birds heard her conspiring with her advisors, planning to use this opportunity to make the prophecy from a thousand years ago public and pressure the Noble Lord through public opinion.”
“The Fengqi Empress founded the nation, and the Noble Lord is a man, using his charms to bewitch the Empress, hoping to control the court. When the common people hear the prophecy from a thousand years ago, they will be in an uproar, condemning and attacking the Noble Lord. Then she can take advantage of the situation, restore her former prestige, and secure her footing in the court.”
“She still hasn’t given up!”
Lin Qingluo sighed softly, “That high and mighty imperial position really makes people disregard even family and fight to the death.”
“The news has already spread.”
Little Kingfisher was a little excited and a bit smug, “Apparently, Master obtained the portrait at the Flower Appreciation Banquet, and the person in the portrait was the Founding Empress. Along with the prophecy from a thousand years ago, people are talking about it in every street and alley, focusing on the divine beast, the Phoenix.”
“What a vicious move!”
Lin Qingluo, being smart and sharp, unlike Little Kingfisher’s reaction, instantly guessed the Second Imperial Princess’s intentions.
“She wants to shift the blame, making the Empress think that I had ulterior motives after seeing the portrait, and deliberately spread the prophecy.”
“Uh.”
Little Kingfisher was a little confused.
It hadn’t considered that, and was just happy about the situation.
“This woman is too malicious, does Master want to teach her a lesson?”
Realizing the situation, the Divine Baby became angry.
“It’s time to teach her a lesson.”
Lin Qingluo’s eyes grew cold, “Otherwise, she’ll think I’m an easy target that she can manipulate at will.”
“I’ll set her Princess’s residence on fire.”
Little Kingfisher was indignant, its cheeks puffed up with anger, and fire sparks circled around it.
