Chapter 861 - 863: Acknowledging Relatives (4)
During the third watch, Helana appeared in Luo Xue’s tent as agreed. When she appeared, Luo Xue was sitting on the carpet cleaning the tea set. Without rising to greet her, she pointed to the carpet opposite her and said, "Princess, please sit. We don’t have much time, so I must make this brief."
"What do you want to say? And how can you help me?"
Helana sat opposite her, asking eagerly.
"I can indeed help the Princess, but only halfway, the other half depends on the Princess herself."
"How can you help? What do you want me to do?"
Luo Xue lowered her eyes, continuing the tea ceremony as she laid out her plan.
"As the esteemed Princess, highly favored by the heavens, if you can share a bed with His Highness King Qin, he cannot ignore this act. By then, you’ll naturally become the rightful Royal Consort of King Qin!"
Upon hearing her plan, Helana was immediately disheartened. "I thought you had a better idea. It turns out it’s just a bad idea. If I could have slept in his bed, I would have done it long ago. Why would I have waited until now?"
Luo Xue spoke calmly, "Without the Princess’s own power, it’s naturally impossible, but to achieve this, Princess Zhao Yang and I need to help. I just don’t know, after this is accomplished, how does Princess Helan plan to thank me?"
"If you really can help me, and I become the Queen Consort, you will be the Side Consort!" Helana had long understood Luo Xue’s intentions and immediately made a generous statement.
Although her words were loud, her mind harbored other plans; she had never thought of sharing her husband with another woman, especially such a formidable woman. Once this affair was concluded, she would definitely find a way to remove her!
