Chapter 186: Madness



The head nanny pushed the door open and came in, bowing first.

Just as he was about to put some silver charcoal in, he was stopped by Zhang San.

"Mammy, wait a minute."

The nanny was stunned and turned around.

"This is...?"

The Empress Dowager shook her head and motioned Zhang San to continue.

"I saw a little palace maid hand the medicine bag to Ah Huan."

The nanny's face changed.

"Ah Huan put the medicine on the silver charcoal."

The head nanny immediately took two steps back and lifted the veil covering the body.

The silver charcoal stored underground seemed unchanged.

If one didn't know the origin of the medicinal powder, one would mistake it for charcoal ash from silver charcoal.

"Ah Huan..."

The old nanny spoke.

She put the basket aside and suddenly knelt down.

"My Lady, Ah Huan..."

The Empress Dowager shook her head: "She is a loyal child."

These words made the old nanny's nose sour.

Ah Huan was a good boy, but unfortunately, he died at the hands of Concubine Bai.

What kind of ghostly method did she use?

Let such a loyal Ah Huan obey her orders.

"My Lady, should we execute Ah Huan now?"

The Empress Dowager shook her head: "No hurry, we will take advantage of their own strategy."

Zhang San was stunned.

"Take out the remaining silver charcoal."

This basket of silver charcoal is wasted.

There is medicine in it that Ah Huan gave it, so it definitely cannot be used.

The nanny put the basket aside and found the silver charcoal from the side.

"My lady, they are all here."

"Well, put it all in there."

The nanny slowly put the remaining silver charcoal in.

When I stood up, I felt a little embarrassed.

"My Lady, this silver charcoal..."

The Empress Dowager understood what she meant.

She is old, and the palace rules are very strict now.

This basket contains half a month's supply of silver charcoal.

If there is not even that little bit of silver charcoal left now.

The rest of the days will be difficult to endure.

Zhang San also understood what the nanny meant, and he could leave the palace.

only. . .

I'm afraid I won't be able to buy such good charcoal.

The Empress Dowager looked at the burning silver charcoal in front of her and shook her head.

"These sufferings are nothing compared to what Emperor Taizong and I have endured."

As she spoke, a hint of nostalgia appeared in her eyes.

Emperor Taizong passed away early.

The imperial physician said that his health was seriously deteriorating.

Only the Empress Dowager knew.

What did Taizong pay for?

Everyone says he is ruthless, but if it weren't for him.

Where did the later prosperous reign of Emperor Taizong come from?

I just didn't expect it to be consumed like this.

The past events here cannot be determined.

The Empress Dowager kept wondering what would happen if their eldest son were still alive.

The red leaves of Yue can also create a beautiful story.

But all the old friends among them have passed away, and now the Empress Dowager is left with only regrets.

"Emperor Taizong has always wanted to see Hengguo become strong and no longer have to suffer at the hands of Manhe."

"We were the ones who let down the Yue family back then."

The Empress Dowager said this and stood up.

"If you can't even endure this little bit of hardship, how can you lead by example?"

The Grand Empress Dowager said this and asked the head nanny to hide the drugged silver charcoal without making any noise.

To prevent being discovered by Ah Huan.

Ah Huan thought the silver charcoal had been used up, and felt regretful in his heart, but he couldn't say a word.

She tried to commit suicide several times but to no avail, and realized that she was now just a puppet.

Being controlled, but unable to do anything.

And the news finally reached Bai Qinghan's ears as expected.

She knew it was poison, and she felt a little relieved.

The Empress Dowager left in a hurry, and Chu Shengan did not stop her.

Just tell the Empress Dowager to take good care of herself.

A lot of things were given for this purpose.

Only the head nanny twitched her lips as she looked at the boxes of items.

That material seems to be from more than ten years ago?

The pattern on the hairpin is also very simple and ancient.

The head nanny looked at the eunuchs who were pretending to be calm and sneered.

"Your Majesty has received it. Please go back."

The Empress Dowager didn't even show up and sent them away directly.

The eunuchs didn't know what to say, so they could only shrink their bodies and walk back.

After the old nanny got on the carriage, she frowned.

"My Lady, what are they doing..."

The Empress Dowager knew something: "The national treasury was robbed, and even the imperial seal was lost."

"All these things he has put together now are just for the sake of looking good."

The Empress Dowager did not offend him, but she would not give him a good face either.

Just can't get out of the car.

It can be considered as a complete bloodline.

Chu Shengan put down the memorial in his hand only after the carriage slowly drove out of the palace.

It fell heavily to the ground.

"What do you mean by being infected with the plague?"

It was obviously a memorial from the Lord of Lanzhou.

Chu Shengan sent a lot of people, half of whom were killed.

The leading General Weiyuan and Lord Zhu are also gone.

If you say this out loud, it will make you laugh out loud.

Prime Minister Li below also had a dark face.

"Even if General Weiyuan and Lord Zhu were infected with the disease, why didn't they send a message back?"

Lu Anan decided to go all out and burned everyone to ashes.

Even if Chu Shengan sent more people to Hongcheng now.

Only broken walls and ruins are left.

"Your Majesty, this Lord of Lanzhou..."

Chu Shengan raised his head, and Prime Minister Li immediately stopped talking.

"Chu! Jin! Shen!"

He shouted this out through gritted teeth.

Chu Shengan could almost guess the reason.

He was extremely angry, but there was nothing he could do.

"Your Majesty, at least the epidemic has been stopped."

Chu Shengan sneered: "Indeed, they were stopped, but many of my men were killed!"

He was almost furious.

Prime Minister Li fell silent suddenly.

"Your Majesty, the most urgent task is to replace the Lord of Lanzhou."

The Lord of Lanzhou is the Empress Dowager's man, and he was also involved in the previous Yuezhou incident.

Chu Shengan originally wanted to use this incident to pull the Lord of Lanzhou down from this position.

Unexpectedly.

He also compensated General Weiyuan and Lord Zhu.

Chu Shengan managed to calm down.

"Replace? Then, in your opinion, who should be replaced?"

Prime Minister Li was speechless for a moment.

Who to change?

He actually doesn't know either.

"Prime Minister Li, do you think I can easily replace the Lord of Lanzhou after he submitted such a memorial?"

Prime Minister Li answered silently in his heart: No.

Chu Shengan was almost laughing out of anger.

He turned his back.

"Now that the national treasury is empty, even if I want to punish the Lord of Lanzhou, do you think Chu Jinshen will sit idly by?"

"So, I have to resolve this situation first!"

He turned around, his eyes full of viciousness.

"Only in this way can I be free from worries."

Prime Minister Li lowered his eyes, hiding the fear in his eyes.

Is the current Chu Shengan really the wise ruler he pursued wholeheartedly in the past?

He is almost going crazy now.

What exactly happened?
