Ying Zheng once again stepped into the back of the palace, a place where theoretically only women existed.
He now didn't know how to face Queen Dowager Huayang.
Imprisonment, or erasure?
Neither of these is what Ying Zheng wants.
He actually didn't know why Queen Dowager Huayang had the idea of seizing power.
This idea is terrifying, not to mention that Queen Mother Huayang has taken action, so this matter will never end peacefully.
Because of the complicated things that happened before, and the trip to Anyi to preside over the alliance, he had not seen the Queen Mother Huayang for half a year.
Logically speaking, he should miss her especially, but Ying Zheng now only feels calm and seems to be more disgusted.
This is a wonderful transformation.
After Ying Zheng ascended the throne and became the emperor, it seemed that everything was changing.
Ying Zichu is gone, Zhao Ji is gone, and now even the kind Queen Mother Huayang and Queen Mother Xia seem to be gone too.
For Ying Zheng, these people are all relatives, the people closest to him in the world.
However, after learning that they had disappeared, Ying Zheng felt not only sadness but also a feeling of relief.
It's amazing and it's real.
Before Ying Zheng reaches the top, Chen Xuan will not and cannot allow anyone to make things difficult for Ying Zheng by any means.
Even though he couldn't influence Ying Zheng's mood, he was able to get his words into other people's hearts and make them think things they shouldn't have.
For example, Lu Buwei, Queen Dowager Huayang, Queen Dowager Xia, or Cheng Jiao.
Cheng Jiao might become Ying Zheng's right-hand man, but Queen Dowager Xia and Queen Dowager Huayang would only become stumbling blocks for Ying Zheng.
Chen Xuan had no other means, and it was impossible for him to bury these two people directly, as that would definitely arouse Ying Zheng's suspicion.
The matter of Ying Zichu and Zhao Ji was not handled properly, which immediately created a rift in the relationship between the two.
Now Queen Dowager Huayang and Queen Dowager Xia, together with Cheng Jiao, are the closest people to Ying Zheng. If Chen Xuan wants to plot against these three at once without letting Ying Zheng see any clues, he can only take an unconventional approach.
And this deviation is on Cheng Jiao.
What evil intentions could a little kid have?
Originally, Chen Xuan also wanted to deal with Cheng Jiao, but as mentioned earlier, not many people would believe a two or three-year-old child even if he said he had the intention of rebellion.
In addition, Cheng Jiao's fortune-enhancing beast Luwu is a legendary divine beast guarding the gate of Kunlun. What it represents is enough to make Chen Xuan let down his guard.
According to Chen Xuan's observation, the form of fortune reflected is the most true portrayal of this person.
It’s just that Ying Zheng has no luck, or perhaps Ying Zheng’s luck is him, Chen Xuan.
One person is a country, and a country is for one person.
Looking back over the five thousand years of Chinese history, it seems that only Ying Zheng had the confidence to say such words.
"Get out of the way!"
Ying Zheng looked at the maidservant with her head hung in front of him and knew that she was the personal servant of Queen Dowager Huayang, named He.
Chen Xuan also stopped thinking and looked at the maid in front of him and the palace behind him.
It was already night, and there were a few candles dimly lit inside, making it look dim from the outside.
He stood in front of Ying Zheng, lowered her head and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, please wait a moment. I will go and ask the Queen Mother for instructions."
After saying this, he was about to get up and leave, as if he wanted Ying Zheng to stay here for a while.
This is not He's fault. After all, he is just a slave, a slave belonging only to Queen Dowager Huayang. Even though his life is much better than most people, he is still a slave.
He is just a poor person who has no human rights and can only depend on others to survive.
For such people, they have already been branded and can only be loyal to one person in their entire life.
He is loyal to Queen Dowager Huayang. Not to mention Ying Zheng, even if it is a real god from heaven who comes down to earth, He can only do what Queen Dowager Huayang tells him to do.
If you do as you are told, you might survive. If you don't, you will die, and it will definitely be a very miserable death.
"Did I let you go?"
The whole night was quiet. He, who had just raised her foot, was fixed in place, unable to move forward or backward.
"Hmph!" Ying Zheng also knew that the slave in front of him was doing things according to the orders of Queen Dowager Huayang, and he had no mood or time to embarrass such a small character who didn't even have human rights.
Regardless of the fact that He was unable to move due to Chen Xuan's power, she pushed the door open and entered the palace to look for Queen Dowager Huayang.
For Ying Zheng, it was He's words that made him give up some of his thoughts.
The situation was now in his favor, and even the Empress Dowager Huayang dared to act pretentiously. If he gave in even a little, wouldn't the Empress Dowager Huayang become even more aggressive and go even further?!
…
When Queen Dowager Huayang heard the noise outside the palace, her already panicked heart suddenly calmed down.
Just sitting there with his eyes wandering, as if he was waiting for something, as if he was expecting something in his heart.
But all this disappeared when Ying Zheng pushed the door open. Even though Queen Dowager Huayang kept telling herself to stay calm, it was of no use.
"Is the Queen Mother doing well recently?"
There was no greeting, and the address changed from "Grandmother Wang" to "Queen Mother". Everything was cold and extremely dull.
The Queen Dowager Huayang's heart, which had just calmed down, began to beat again. She knew that Ying Zheng already knew everything, so now she had to start her performance.
If the performance is successful, she will still be Ying Zheng's grandmother, there will be no changes and no problems.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I have been staying quite comfortably these past two days, but Queen Mother Xia is a little restless."
