The Empress Dowager

Chapter 424 Queen's Conspiracy
In the Yonghe Palace, Empress Jiang was sitting on the couch sipping tea, a little maid came over and blessed Empress Jiang: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Jiang will see you."

Upon hearing this, Empress Jiang put the tea cup in her hand on the small table, and said, "Hurry up and announce the Prime Minister to come in."

"Yes, empress." The little maid blessed her body and withdrew.

Not long after, Prime Minister Jiang came in dressed in court attire, and bowed to Empress Jiang: "I will see you, Empress."

"Brother, what are you doing? Hurry up." Empress Jiang said.

"Thank you, ma'am." Prime Minister Jiang got up and sat on a chair beside him.

"I don't know what my brother is talking about here?"

"Oh, it's not about the front line. I'm so busy. Recently, rumors spread in the court that the Ninth Prince favored a woman from the Qingxiao Kingdom, which made the war fail again and again..." Prime Minister Jiang said, sighing softly. The township is the tomb of heroes, why was the Ninth Prince bewitched by a woman?

"I have also heard about this matter. Who would have known that such a woman came out of the Nangong family? Perhaps earlier, that woman was replaced by someone else, and the Marquis of Zhen Guo just gave her away in such a muddle-headed manner. I admit it, it's really..." Empress Jiang said, with an almost invisible smile on the corner of her mouth, Murong Yu lost half of his country because of that woman, the emperor will definitely not forgive him lightly.

Furthermore, this Murong Yu resisted the decree three times in a row, and the emperor was so angry that he vomited blood. When Murong Yu came back, there would be no good fruit to eat.

What's the use of Mobei being well governed?

Empress Jiang thought, and hummed softly in her heart.

"The emperor's health is getting worse and worse." Prime Minister Jiang said, raised his hand to take a sip from the teacup handed by the court lady, and said, "I also heard that the emperor has sent someone to take that woman..." While talking, Prime Minister Jiang made a movement of wiping his neck with his hand.

"Brother, are you sure about this?" Empress Jiang asked, her face was a little ugly, and the emperor actually kept it from her!
Prime Minister Jiang nodded: "Sure."

A strange look flashed across the empress's phoenix eyes, and then she disappeared, but that's fine, since the emperor didn't tell her, she just pretended she didn't know, and she just happened to be able to do something about it.

Prime Minister Jiang sat for a while, then got up to leave, and when Prime Minister Jiang left, Empress Jiang said to the maid next to her, "Zhiqin, go and find Zhihua, and the rest of you will leave."

"It's Your Majesty." A group of palace maids blessed Empress Chaojiang and retreated.

Not long after, Zhihua walked in and bowed to Empress Jiang: "Empress Empress."

Empress Jiang glanced at Zhiqin, smiled, and handed a bag of silver taels to Zhiqin: "Take this silver to buy some killers."

Zhiqin took the silver and saluted Empress Jiang again: "Yes, empress."

She helped the Empress do this kind of thing not once or twice. From the initial fear to the insensitiveness now, she has always been rigorous in doing things, so the Empress was very relieved to let her find and buy some killers.

Zhihua took the money and withdrew.

Empress Jiang snorted coldly. Murong Yu had resisted the decree three times and was still reluctant to kill him. If he couldn't bear it, then she would help him.

The war did not stop for several months. Fortunately, Chu Li led troops to support, and this turned the situation around a little bit. Even so, everyone was still a little bit up and down. After all, because of Murong Yuan and Song Mingyuan's disorderly command With one pass, many cities were lost.

If you want to recover them one by one, it will take a lot of time.
