Chapter 141: The Humiliated Woman Beheaded and Abandoned in the City (24)

Luoyang Official Posthouse, Room B.

Zhu Yu and Su Mei, who had just returned, were also feeling quite nervous. As soon as they closed the door, they immediately started talking.

"Is it okay for us to do this?"

"It should be fine. We weren't the first to attack. They attacked us first, and we fought back. It's just like the Lingnan Jiedushi before. He attacked our Yazhou Island first, and we fought back. Sister Minghui will definitely not blame us."

"That makes sense, but aren't we being a little too aggressive? It feels like we've gotten into trouble."

"Well...it's not our fault. The key is that what they said earlier was too infuriating. Not only was it infuriating, but it was also shameless. I got a little angry and got a little too angry.

Later I thought, I can’t favor one over the other.

So we all used the same amount of effort!"

“Before we came, Sister Minghui warned us that things might not go smoothly this time and told us to figure it out on our own.

Can't be too weak, nor too strong.

What we are doing should not be considered as being weak, nor as being strong. After all, we are quite polite and have already given 800,000 taels of silver, so there will definitely be no problem. The next step is to wait for them to send over the imperial edict appointing the governor.

Then let’s go back quickly.”

"Don't worry, we can stay here for a few more days and go shopping. Besides, didn't we promise the Queen Mother that if anyone tries to steal the silver we gave her, we'll help her get it back? I think the Queen Mother doesn't seem to have many people listening to her. If we leave too early, who knows, her silver might really be stolen."

"You're quite a nice person."

"Of course not. I'm always happy to help."

"Then let's go shopping. The last time I went shopping in Luoyang was ten years ago. It's a good opportunity to buy some Luoyang specialties to bring back. Many of my sisters still miss it."

"Alright, I'll get the silver."

After discussing this and comforting each other, the two of them quickly and happily took their money and went out shopping. Yazhou Island certainly had no shortage of mass-produced items, but they didn't have relatively fine, handmade crafts or top-notch embroidery.

And Luoyang is their hometown after all.

How could they not buy some things when they came back after ten years, and bring some to their sisters back home on Yazhou Island? They knew full well that their old house had burned down long ago, and their relatives had long since turned to ashes, with no one knowing where they were buried. Otherwise, they would definitely go to the old house and look for their relatives' graves.

While they were shopping, the ministers who were still alive in the palace, except for a few who were mentally ill and were sent home, basically changed into clean clothes and drank a few bowls of tranquilizers.

They were sent to the Zichen Palace together.

After a long time, Queen Mother Wang arrived at the Zichen Palace with a tired face and told them that Emperor Yuhe had mostly recovered his consciousness and fell asleep after drinking some calming soup.

Silence followed.

No one knew what to say.

The Queen Mother thought for a moment, then produced a copy of the imperial edict she had written herself and stamped with the Emperor's seal.
"This is the imperial edict appointing the leader of Yuanjun Mansion as the governor of Lingnan Road. I stamped the seal on it. After all, His Majesty is still recovering. Do you have any objections? If not, I will send someone to deliver the imperial edict."

"Queen Mother, how dare you overstep your authority..."

This time the officials did not say that the title could not be conferred, but they just wondered how the empress dowager could exercise the emperor's right to stamp the throne?

Isn’t this an usurpation of power?

"Why don't you go and tell the two envoys that His Majesty is ill and needs to rest, and that he cannot issue an imperial edict to them for the time being, so let them wait?" As the Queen Mother said this.

Everyone was speechless.

When faced with this terrifying existence that can beat a living person into a pulp with just a slap, they are really like scholars meeting soldiers. They have no way to explain themselves, and they dare not speak. What else can they do at this time except to accept it?
Who would dare to really run up to those two messengers and say that?

So, the matter was settled, and a eunuch was quickly assigned to deliver the relevant imperial edict to the official post station. In addition to the imperial edict, Queen Mother Wang also took out a lot of her best things as a consolation and reward.

She really wouldn't feel at ease unless she gave her something.

Still no one objects to this.

It fully demonstrates what it means to bully the weak and fear the strong!

Afterwards, the Queen Mother was too lazy to say anything to the officials present. She directly sent people to call all the eunuchs who sent the two envoys over to ask them what happened.

Ask them to explain everything they know.

The most important thing is how those two messengers could be so strong, what was going on, and how many similar beings were there in Lingnan Road.

Those eunuchs were actually a little confused.

And not much is known about the relevant situation.

Therefore, they could only vaguely say that the two envoys were disciples of the leader of Yuanjun Mansion. There should be more than 300 similar disciples, and they didn't know the others.

But that’s just the little bit of news.

It made everyone present feel dizzy.

These two terrifying guys were actually just disciples of the leader of Yuanjun Mansion, and there were more than three hundred similar ones.

How terrifying would the leader of Yuanjun Mansion be?
Oh my God, how dare they do that.

How dare you think of dealing with others?
"Is it possible that those two were born with supernatural powers, just like Xiang Yu and Lu Bu? They were worried that others might be in danger if they came to serve as messengers, so they sent these two here, only these two."

“Confucius had three thousand disciples, but in the end, only seventy-two of them emerged as sages. Even if the leader of Yuanjun Mansion accepted three hundred disciples, it is impossible for all of them to become talented.

There are definitely differences in innate talent."

"Yes, yes, no need to scare yourself."

"But these two alone are already quite terrifying, okay? I'm afraid that the Lu Bu and Xiang Yu recorded in ancient books are not as terrifying as them. If they were men, recruiting them would definitely make them powerful generals who would shock the world for generations to come!"

"Women can't make exceptions!"

"It's a shame to leave such talented people in Lingnan Dao. I wonder if it's possible to retain them by bestowing them with titles and recruiting them for your own use?"

"The Queen Mother can adopt them as her daughters and then confer titles of princess upon them. I doubt the leader of the Yuanjun Mansion will treat them any better. With these two strong generals guarding Luoyang, we won't be afraid even if Grand Tutor Zhu comes again."

Although they were a little shocked at first, they soon realized that such great strength couldn't be acquired through training, but must be innate, a natural talent. Therefore, everyone quickly relaxed and no longer feared the Yuanjun Mansion of Lingnan Dao.

They also started discussing whether they could find a way to poach some of the employees.

When a person is good enough, family background and past don’t matter, and gender naturally doesn’t matter. It’s just like in the online literature circle, where writing can break everything, and in the entertainment industry, where talent defeats capital.

You know what, the Queen Mother was really moved.
