Yongshou Palace.

Min Huang sat below the Queen Mother, and when he saw the "master and servant" who had such a tacit understanding with each other, he was completely dazed.

“…”

What did I hear?

Aunt Axian is actually the Queen Mother’s old lover.

wrong!

That’s not the point!

The point is, they are all women.

How could—

Well, it must be admitted that Min Huang is still young. Although he grew up in the harem, he has not been favored since childhood, and he and his mother have always been neglected.

He cautiously hid in his own palace and tried not to provoke other nobles.

And because Concubine Xie was out of favor, the concubines were too lazy to frame her.

I don’t know if it can be considered a blessing in disguise, but this mother and son, who lived their own lives behind closed doors, actually avoided many disturbances in the palace.

As for Min Huang, he now has a relatively "simple" living environment.

Therefore, Min Huang did not know that when women start to play, they actually have so many tricks.

Min Huang didn't even know that there was such a word as "polishing the mirror" in this world.

It can be said that when the young emperor came to Yongshou Palace, heard the voices of Queen Mother Wang and Ah Xian, and learned the true relationship between the two, his three views collapsed.

"emperor?"

Queen Mother Wang had no idea that her secret had been discovered by Min Huang. As a woman who had been in charge of the harem for twenty or thirty years, her control over the harem far exceeded that of Queen Gu.

As for the previous dynasty, even though the Queen Mother had retired for several months, she still left behind a large number of people.

Therefore, Queen Mother Wang was the first to learn about Min Huang beating Yu Heng with a stick in the court.

At that time, she smiled and said to Ah Xian: "See, I said our little emperor is much more cruel than the previous emperor!"

I am even more impatient.

I know he wants to monopolize power and I know he will burn bridges after crossing them, but this is a bit too hasty.

He hasn't even completely taken control of the court yet, but he's already started taking action against the Yu family?

The Gu family's aristocratic class and the Yu family's military power are both very important to Min Huang.

Unless he has become a true emperor, otherwise, eliminating any one of them would be like destroying his own Great Wall.

"...Your Majesty can't be blamed. The Yu family has been in the northwest for too long!"

Ah Xian has been with the Queen Mother for twenty or thirty years and is no longer an ordinary woman.

She also has basic political common sense.

"The Northwest Army, a valuable asset of the imperial court, has become the Yu Family Army!"

"People only know that the Yu family army fought bravely and defended the northwest border, but who knows that the huge amount of money and food consumed by the northwest army every year was allocated by the imperial court!"

The imperial court provided money, food and pensions, but it earned the name "Yu Family Army".

It is estimated that in the Yu family army, those soldiers only recognize General Yu, but have forgotten who is the one who truly supports them!

"During the time of the previous emperor, he intended to consolidate military power."

"But Yu Jue is cunning, actually resorting to the tactic of 'nurturing the enemy to protect himself'!"

"The barbarians from the northwest crossed the border town and marched straight in, nearly reaching the capital."

"For the sake of the northwest defense line, the late emperor gave up the idea of ​​taking back the military power of the northwest army. In addition, he also showed favor to the Yu family—"

Ah Xian was quite emotional when she talked about this past event.

The Yu family has its own army and is very powerful.

It has become a stumbling block to the imperial power.

But the northwest is particularly important——

Of course, the main reason why the late emperor did not take action against the Yu family was that he was old and sick.

He was dying, and he did not want to, nor did he dare to, easily shake the stability of the border.

He passed the throne to Min Huang and also gave this heir the task of taking back the military power in the northwest.

Therefore, Min Huang's handling of the Yu family was not only a betrayal, but also a fulfillment of the late emperor's wishes.

If Ah Xian understands this, the Queen Mother will understand it even better.

However, the Queen Mother had a personal grudge against Min Huang and was unwilling to speak well of him.

At this moment, facing Min Huang who came to pay his respects, the Queen Mother was not in a good mood.

Especially since Min Huang was looking at her and Ah Xian with a strange gaze, the Queen Mother felt offended and despised!

"Min Huang!"

Finally unable to bear it any longer, the Queen Mother didn't even bother to call him "Emperor" and directly called Min Huang's name.

And in her heart, she couldn't help complaining -

[This Min Jiu is really getting more and more outrageous! ]

[Does he think that if I return power to him, he will be able to sit firmly on the throne?]

[Hmph, let's not talk about anything else. Just based on that incident, I can make him lose his reputation and become penniless!]

[In the past, I still considered our past friendship and didn't want to take things too far. Now it seems that Min Jiu is indeed the son of the bitch Xie. This mother and son are equally disgusting.]

Xie covets the position of Queen Mother and even tries to cling to my well-being; Min Jiu, in alliance with Gu, is trying to take my—

[You were unkind first, so you really can't blame me for being unjust later.]

Hearing the Queen Mother's words, Min Huang felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head.

First, I lost control again.

Indeed, the true relationship between the Queen Mother and Ah Xian is truly shocking.

But who is he?

He is Min Huang, the emperor!

Even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, he shouldn't have shown any strange expression, but in the end, he showed the same expression in front of the Queen Mother!

An old fox like the Queen Mother is inherently cunning and treacherous, and is good at observing people's expressions and guessing their minds.

I should have been extremely careful and cautious, but in the end—

no!

I can't do this anymore!
