"Did Meng Ao really say that?"
Queen Dowager Huayang looked at Mi Chen. She was frightened by the overwhelming divine power just now, so she simply did not kneel down.
Using a son to establish a father is unprecedented. If a mother kneels before her son, the Qin State will lose all its face.
Mi Chen had just entered the palace and had not been away for long when he rushed back to complain.
Although he said that he was filing a complaint, he was actually putting pressure on Queen Dowager Huayang and sending her a message that if he could not solve the problem of Meng Ao, Mi Chen would not step forward anymore.
Although Queen Dowager Huayang might not be able to see it, she knew that Mi Chen came to complain, and that was all she needed to know.
"The general is extremely domineering. I'm afraid he sees me as someone trying to seize power. This matter needs to be discussed between my sister and the general. After all, I am of low voice and can't say much."
Mi Chen kept a very low profile, and now all his ups and downs depended on Queen Dowager Huayang.
He was a Chu native, and he was able to become a feudal lord only by relying on the advice of Queen Dowager Huayang.
It was this kind of pillow talk that branded Mi Chen with the mark of Queen Dowager Huayang, a mark that could never be erased.
This also made Mi Chen lose the possibility of making further progress.
Queen Dowager Huayang could not understand the meaning of Mi Chen's words. She just thought that he had been wronged and came here to complain.
But what can she, a woman, do?
I don’t know what he was obsessed with in the past few years, but he actually threw away everything he had and let Ying Zichu take complete control of Xianyang.
Now I have the idea but I don’t have the ability.
"I will naturally speak to Meng Ao. All you need to do is communicate properly with the ministers below, and I will naturally take care of the rest."
Queen Dowager Huayang frowned, stretched out her right hand to rub her eyebrows, then stared at Mi Chen and said.
"Don't overthink it. I'm the emperor's grandmother after all. I can still get a chancellor position!"
Mi Chen knew that this was just a reassurance given to him by Queen Dowager Huayang. If he really believed it, he would be stupid.
Whether you believe it or not is one thing, and how you behave on the surface is another.
Mi Chen kowtowed twice in delight, looked at the Queen Mother Huayang with a smile, and said flatteringly, "Then I'll follow your arrangements, sister?"
"I am responsible for everything! You go away first." Queen Dowager Huayang looked at Mi Chen, who was smiling like a flower in front of her, and felt annoyed from nowhere in her heart. She waved her hand and drove Mi Chen out.
Mi Chen did not stay long. He had already gotten the results he wanted, so he naturally would not make a scene here. Now he was going to visit the court officials one by one.
Although he did not hold out much hope for the position of Prime Minister, since Queen Mother Huayang had given the guarantee, the chances were naturally greater.
The opportunity is great, Mi Chen will definitely strive for it a little more, after all, he was aiming for the position of prime minister back then.
Empress Dowager Huayang watched her unruly brother leave, sighed, and muttered to the back, "Sister, are you still not going to help me?"
"Sister, you're joking." A person walked out from the barrier behind. A closer look revealed that it was Empress Dowager Xia, who had not been heard from for a long time.
At this time, Queen Mother Xia looked wealthy and her figure did not seem to be in bad shape. She seemed to be living a more comfortable life than Queen Mother Huayang.
"My younger sister is just a useless person, how can she help her elder sister?"
Queen Mother Huayang looked at the person in front of her and almost broke her silver teeth.
If it weren't for this person who borrowed Cheng Jiao's name, even if she, the Queen Mother Huayang, was lonely, she would not have become like this.
Before Ying Zheng returned, many court officials used Cheng Jiao's name to show their loyalty to Queen Mother Xia!
"Sister, don't forget that the current King of Qin is Zheng'er!"
Queen Mother Huayang did not show any sarcasm, but just said it gloomily, and then Queen Mother Xia's face turned pale instantly.
"No matter who becomes King of Qin, aren't they all my grandson? Since they all have to honor me, why are you so worried?"
Queen Mother Xia's face turned pale with fright. She had been a little proud of the compliments from a lot of people a while ago, but now Queen Mother Huayang's words instantly brought her back to her true form.
Yes, the current King of Qin is Ying Zheng, not Cheng Jiao!
"I don't mind, but my sister is so pitiful!"
Queen Mother Huayang knew that the woman in front of her was a little stupid, and she was afraid that she would not be able to bear it if she didn't threaten her.
In the past two years, she has been very courteous to Queen Mother Xia for the sake of Ying Zichu and Ying Zheng, but this is not a reason for Queen Mother Xia to disobey her now.
Zhao Ji is no longer with us, but even in Huayang, she is still the most powerful and prestigious woman in the Qin harem, without a doubt.
"Sister, save me!"
Queen Mother Xia was afraid after all. There were many gifts sent by ministers in her palace, and the biggest one was sent by Lu Buwei.
She even arranged for Cheng Jiao and Lu Buwei to meet twice in private, and they became a so-called master and apprentice.
Now that Lu Buwei had committed suicide and Ying Zheng was no longer in Xianyang, Queen Dowager Xia relaxed and no longer took those things to heart.
Now the Queen Mother Huayang brought it up again and talked about it, reminding people of something both explicitly and implicitly.
Although Queen Mother Xia was stupid, she could still hear this kind of thing.
Now that I understand, there is naturally no reason to be arrogant.
Queen Mother Xia quickly knelt beside Queen Mother Huayang, pinched her legs, and said flatteringly, "Sister, you have to save your sister."
"Hmph!" Queen Dowager Huayang snorted coldly. She didn't say anything harsh, but simply ordered, "If you want to live, if you want to continue living like this, then hand over the things those people gave you."
