Xiao Wu looked at the Golden Scale Guards kneeling on the ground in front of her, her eyes flashing like lightning, but she said nothing.

The Golden Scale Guards dared not move.

The commander was angry.

He and others provoked the commander, so they deserve to be punished.

Xiao Wu was silent for a moment, then gave the order in a deep voice: "Get up. Everyone return to your positions."

"yes."

The Golden Scale Guards stood up and left.

Xiao Wu called out to the one who had just fallen backwards: "Wait a minute."

The man waited obediently.

Xiao Wu stretched out her hand to feel his pulse, then touched the back of his head, and suddenly pulled out a silver needle and pierced him twice in the back of the head and the side of his neck.

As soon as the needle was pulled out, blood immediately spurted out in lines and flowed out from those two places.

The Golden Scale Guards watched quietly: What's going on?

Xiao Wu gave him another pill.

"Eat it."

The man swallowed it without hesitation.

"Are you dizzy?"

The man shook his head slightly: "A little bit."

Xiao Wu then explained: "You hit the ground with the back of your head and have intracranial hemorrhage. You are just dizzy now, but if you don't treat it in a while, you will gradually fall into a coma."

"If this injury is not treated in time, you will never wake up again."

"I'm going to bleed you now, and you can take a pill to stop the bleeding."

"Don't be on duty these two days, just sleep."

"You take one pill each of these two medicines a day..."

The Golden Scale Guard was both moved and shocked, but he still took the bottle of medicine obediently and turned back to his exclusive residence.

After this incident, Xiao Wu's position was finally consolidated, and all kinds of information in the palace finally came to her continuously.

Looking at the detailed information in front of her, Xiao Wu realized that several palace servants who often hung around in front of her were actually spies of various mansions...

There were three concubines of the previous emperor who remained, and two of them were hidden pawns.

Concubine Yu, who had given birth to a child before, knew she was in the wrong, and after escaping death, she lived a peaceful life with her daughter in a remote palace. However, there were still people from the former King Hong who came to look for her.

Fortunately, she knew that she would not have much chance in the future, and there was no benefit for her to get involved in such matters, so she chose to ignore the other party.

Nanny Hua in the Queen's palace was beaten to death with sticks. Among the other personal nannies and palace maids, the only one with a clean background was the dumbest one.

The masters behind the other few are different.

Aunt Hua was from the father-in-law's house, and the others were actually concubines from the palace fighting period...

Even though most of the concubines had left the palace, they were still passing messages to their masters outside the palace.

Xiao Wu asked someone to directly give the relevant information to the "seriously ill" Empress Dowager.

The next day, news spread from the Empress Dowager's palace that several maids had died of sudden illness.

Xiao Wu was very satisfied: If you know what's good for you, it will be a sunny day.

If you don't know what's good for you, you may not see tomorrow.

…

Three months later, the news that the Queen Mother was pregnant shocked the Regent and his wife.

Cui Changan looked at Xiaowu, and Xiaowu looked at Cui Changan.

"Not mine."

"I know."

The couple looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

For the sake of the Emperor's reputation, this child must not be kept.

But if you want to abort it, should you ask the emperor, your own son?

However, the emperor was too young, less than four years old. What could he understand?

Asking will not lead to any result and will only make the emperor sad.

In the end, Cui Changan asked Xiao Wu to go talk to the Queen Mother.

Xiao Wu had no choice but to take the Golden Scale Guard to the Cining Palace.

The Cining Palace was particularly deserted. Ever since several of the Empress Dowager's personal maids and senior palace maids were beaten to death, she refused any newcomers to enter her Cining Palace.

Xiao Wu understood: He was afraid that he would have spies on him.

Anyway, there are so many people serving us, so it doesn’t matter if a few are missing.

Who would have thought that because there were so few servants, such a scandal would occur.

Fortunately, the Queen Mother's belly is not big yet and she doesn't go out, so the problem is easy to solve.

Xiao Wu is here to solve the problem.

The Queen Mother thought she wanted to kill her, and she became morbidly angry. She held her stomach and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Xiao Wu said nothing, just raised her hand and had someone bring in the pile of muddy Jinwu Guard.

The Jinwu Guard, who was very long when lifted up and very wide when collapsed, had been tossed to wakefulness. As soon as he was thrown to the ground, he shouted, "It was the Queen Mother who took the initiative!"

"She asked me to follow her... I didn't dare, so she drugged me..."

"Commander Fu, please spare my life..."

The Queen Mother's face turned pale instantly.

She didn't expect that after she condescended to have an affair with the captain of the Jinwu Guard who was in charge of the security of the Cining Palace, this would be the final result?

He had clearly previously kept saying that he was “so beautiful” and “never enough”.

She swallowed, stared at Xiao Wu and asked hoarsely: "What do you want to do? Kill me?"

"I am the emperor's biological mother. If you really kill me, the emperor will hate you when he grows up!"

Xiao Wu sighed and asked someone to take the captain of the Jinwu Guard out before she spoke.

"I don't want to kill you."

"On the contrary, I think it is inhumane to let a young woman be trapped in the harem and live a life of widowhood for the rest of her life."

The Queen Mother was stunned: She doesn’t want to kill herself?

Xiao Wu added: "The situation is already like this. If you want to save your life, there are only two ways."

"What is it?"

"Or, you can just abort this baby. I'll prescribe you a medicine that will prevent you from getting pregnant in the future."

"After you eat it, no matter how you mess around in this palace, you will never get pregnant again."

The Queen Mother subconsciously hugged her belly: This is her child, her blood-related child.

She couldn't bear to do that.

Xiao Wu saw the clue from her actions: "If you want to give birth to this child, you have to leave the palace."

"Or else go to another place under an assumed name."

When the time comes, she will tell the outside world that the Queen Mother has passed away, and she will give birth to and raise the child under a completely new identity.

"Or go to Qifeng Temple."

After the child was born, she said that the Queen Mother adopted the child and asked her to raise him in Qifeng Temple.

The Queen Mother lowered her eyes and paused.

She is weighing the pros and cons.

Without a doubt, this is the best feasible option.

After all, if she gave birth to this child in the palace, not only would she die, but even the emperor would be implicated by her, making people question the purity of her bloodline.

She was silent for a while, then suddenly looked at Xiao Wu: "I want to meet the Regent. I only listen to him."

Xiao Wu sneered: "Do you think that the reason you are in this state is because the Regent King refused to have an affair with you?"

"It's all his fault?"

"Will he feel guilty about this? Or even responsible for what's happening to you right now?"

The Queen Mother pursed her lips, revealing a stubbornness after a bit of despair: "Isn't it?"

"If he had shown some mercy to me, I wouldn't be in this situation now."

Xiao Wu bluntly pointed out: "There is a kind of person who will blame all the misfortunes on others. Anyway, she herself is not wrong anyway."

"I'm telling you, he'd think it was a waste of time to look at you any more."

"If you know what's interesting, make your own choice."

"If you don't know what's good for you, don't blame me for making the choice for you."

The Queen Mother hesitated for a long time, but finally succumbed to Xiao Wu's cold gaze and chose to go to Qifeng Temple.

Xiao Wu immediately asked people to pack up and send the Empress Dowager to Qifeng Temple that night.

After leaving the Cining Palace, she turned around and took the hand of the emperor who had just walked out from the other side, and slowly walked towards the imperial study.

The young emperor had just been in the back hall of the Cining Palace, listening and watching everything that was happening before his eyes.

At this moment, his palms were full of sweat, his little mouth was pursed, his face was slumped, and he looked like he was trying hard not to cry.

Xiao Wu softened her heart and hugged him in her arms. He immediately lay on Xiao Wu's neck and began to cry silently.

"Aunt Xiaowu, let me ask you a question: Why does my mother never have me in her heart?"

"I am his son. I am so obedient..."

“Wuwuwu…”

Why can't you see me when I'm trying my best?

Why can you hurt me without any scruples without caring about my feelings? (End of this chapter)
