"What are you going to do to me? The Emperor is here. Are you going to kill me in public?"
Mo Yunzhao immediately stood up and supported the Empress Dowager's arm.
His face darkened with anger.
"Little Ninth, Ninth Princess Consort, what do you mean?"
Jiang Qingwan remained completely calm, her beautiful fox-like eyes filled with chilling coldness. "I never expected that the Empress Dowager would also be a member of the Xuanmen sect."
Mo Yunzhao was stunned.
A flicker of panic crossed his eyes.
"Nonsense! My mother, how could I not know that she understands Taoist magic?"
The Empress Dowager raised her hand.
“Your Majesty, there is no need for further words. I have received conclusive information that the Zhuge Clan has an inseparable connection with the remnants of the Sui Dynasty. So many people died in Qingfeng Village, all at the hands of Shenji Banlu, a member of the Zhuge Clan.

They didn't want to delve into whether their master knew all this.
Compared to the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty, her master and fellow disciples were her closest and dearest people.
She raised her hand with a cold expression.
"In that case, return the medicine and let the Emperor Emeritus die of his illness. He doesn't need to take it anymore."
Zhong Yuan scratched his head anxiously.
But I don't know how to advise them.
The Empress Dowager gave a cold laugh.
“Jiang Qingwan, you and the Ninth Prince are not married, so you are not considered a royal daughter-in-law. Moreover, this medicine was brought into the palace by the Ninth Prince. Do you think you can cover up his crimes by saying this?”
"I suspect that the Ninth Prince's actions were all instigated by you. Guards, seize this vixen!"
