The palace concubine is charming and chaotic: the country is still the same

Chapter 180 - The Heartbreaker (4)

"Is the general telling the truth?"

"It coincides with the war between Qi State and Wei State. If I have a different heart, I can turn against it when I hold the military power. The queen can go back and let the emperor rest assured that Mu Piaoyu is only loyal to the emperor in this life."

Xia Lanyue smiled faintly, got up slowly and said: "With the general's words, I will have an explanation when I go back."

Mu Piaoyu saw that Xia Lanyue was about to leave, and said: "Since the queen has come to the general's mansion, can you please stay at the mansion for dinner? There is a cook hired from the country of Yan with a lot of money in the mansion. His specialty The dish is beggar's chicken."

Xia Lanyue was obviously taken aback when she heard this, and remembered that the first time she met Mu Piaoyu many years ago, she was chased all over the street because she had no money to pay the beggar's chicken. Unexpectedly, by such a coincidence, that cook happened to be at Mu Piaoyu's house.

"Then I am very interested in tasting it."

The night moon was hazy, and the shadows of the branches intertwined. Xia Lanyue, who was sitting in the carriage, was a little tired.

Today in the general's mansion, Jufang followed closely, so that she didn't dare to take half a step. Because of the current situation, Mu Piaoyu became the object of Suchen's suspicion. Dare to touch him, after all, the war with Qi has spread.

Now she can't do anything, just wait, if Qi State wins Wei State, it will be the last thing she will do for Yan State.But if the state of Wei destroys the state of Qi, then the state of Wei will be even stronger, and since then it will dominate Kyushu and look down on the world.

Thinking of this, she can't help worrying about her future fate, because she can't do anything now, forcing Shi Jingrou to death is not only pushing Su Chen to a dead end, but also pushing herself to a dead end.

To fight against the outside world, we must first secure the inside, why Suchen chose the most inopportune time to weaken Mu Piaoyu's military power, isn't he really worried that Mu Piaoyu will rebel?

"The one in the carriage is the empress."

The voice outside the carriage was extremely cold and solemn, and it was very clear in this silent night.

Ju Fang lifted the curtain of the carriage, and Xia Lanyue stepped out of the carriage. The guards at Chaoyang Gate looked at her coldly and said, "The little ones are ordered by the Empress Dowager to arrest the Empress Dowager, please trouble the Empress Dowager." Come with us."

Xia Lanyue watched the faces of the guards in front of her turn chilly, and an ominous premonition flashed in her heart, so she said coldly, "The queen mother wants to arrest me?"

"The empress dowager and the emperor have been waiting for the empress for a long time in the empress dowager's hall, please follow us."

Looking at the sudden change at this time, Xia Lanyue knew that something was wrong, but she had no choice but to follow them to the Empress Dowager's Hall.

Along the way, the night was dark and the palace lanterns were flickering. Xia Lanyue couldn't help clenching her hands hidden in her sleeves. She waited for these days, and finally waited for this day. She was not afraid of death, but only worried about God's blessing.

The Empress Dowager's Hall was very quiet, except for the emperor and the empress dowager sitting high above, there were only a few close maids of Eunuch An and the empress dowager left.

"Queen, the Ai family and the emperor have been waiting for a long time." The queen mother's voice was slightly sighed, and there was some regret in her tone.

Hearing her tone, Xia Lanyue couldn't help feeling that she was playing tricks, and said: "I don't know what the queen mother's intention is to invite concubines here?"

The queen mother smiled coldly, and threw a letter in front of her: "The queen can take a good look at the contents of the letter."
