Chapter 425: If Secret Doesn't Work, Come Openly



Chapter 425: If Secret Doesn't Work, Come Openly

The emperor's hands were fixed on the table, and the more he listened to Commander Zhang, the angrier he became.

Although she had guessed it, the Queen would not calm down after knowing that Xiaohua had left the palace.

But no one expected her to be so unscrupulous that she sent out thousands of killers at once, even Madam Rong.

I have to say, this family has quite a lot of financial resources.

Seeing that the emperor was shaking with anger, Eunuch Li hurried forward to comfort him.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Your health is more important."

It’s no wonder that the emperor is so angry. The queen is too bold. It’s okay for her to compete with Concubine Jing in the palace.

They actually sent out so many assassins and even dared to kill Commander Zhang and his men. They really don't take the emperor seriously. No wonder the emperor was so angry.

After hearing what Eunuch Li said, the emperor let out a long sigh and looked at Commander Zhang with a gloomy face.

"Since the Queen has put so much thought into this, it would be unreasonable not to give her a gift in return!"

He stared straight at Commander Zhang in front of him. Although he didn't explain in detail, Commander Zhang already understood and hurriedly bowed and clasped his hands.

"Yes, I obey your command."

Watching Commander Zhang leave, the emperor pinched his swollen brows, stood up, flicked his sleeves and returned to Concubine Jing's courtyard, muttering as he walked.

"Why did you leave the palace to show off? You just wait for her to come back!"

Although the emperor did not say who it was, Eunuch Li behind him understood it and followed behind with his head lowered and did not dare to say a word.

But her lips curled up and she secretly rolled her eyes at the emperor.

“…………”

He also knew when Concubine Jing left the palace. He said this now just to vent his anger.

As soon as Concubine Jing comes back, I'll have to follow her around again.

However, he had to admire the emperor's feelings for Concubine Jing. He had favored her alone over the years, and it was probably recorded in history books.

On the other side, the queen was sitting in her bedroom, eating the nuts handed to her by the nanny, but she was a little absent-minded.

"Isn't it time for Aunt Rong to come back?"

While chewing the nuts in her mouth, she looked at Aunt Liu beside her.

According to the date, she should be back, but there is still no news. I don’t know if it’s a psychological effect, but I always feel that the matter is a little bit uncertain.

"Don't worry, Madam Rong has always been prudent in her work, not to mention she brought so many people with her!"

Aunt Liu smiled and comforted her. If it were someone else, it would be hard to say, but Aunt Rong was different.

She is the most capable person around the queen. No one can compare to her in terms of skills or scheming.

What's more, he brought so many people with him, and they were all elites, so there was no way anything would go wrong.

"Yes." The queen nodded.

I also felt that what Aunt Liu said made sense, but I was very panicked and didn't know why.

Just as I was thinking about it, a shrill scream came from the front hall.

“Ah~~~~”

“…………”The queen was stunned.

He almost dropped the nuts in his hand to the ground and turned to look at Aunt Liu beside him.

Just as Aunt Liu was about to get up to take a look, a palace maid stumbled in.

"My Lady, Madam..."

The palace maid was trembling and pointing in the direction of the front hall. She couldn't speak any more and her face was very pale.

“…………” The queen frowned even more tightly.

I don't understand why this slut was so scared. After a brief hesitation, she seemed to remember something.

"You mean Aunt Rong is back!"

"Yeah." The palace maid kept nodding, her hand pointing in the direction of the front hall, and her tongue was no longer working.

“………………”

The queen glanced at Nanny Liu beside her and felt that something was wrong. She quickly got up and went to the front hall.

As soon as he arrived at the front hall, he looked around. Before he could find the shadow of Rong Mama, he was tripped by something under his feet and almost fell.

"My dear little ......"

Nanny Liu supported the queen and stopped talking midway. She looked at the human stick under her feet in disbelief, her mouth wide open in shock.

Following her gaze, the Queen also looked down at her feet. When she saw Rong Mama's eyes that were still open, she was so frightened that her legs went weak and she sat down on the ground.

“This…this…”

She pointed at Rong Mama in front of her in horror, her face pale with fear.

I couldn't believe that the human stick without arms and legs in front of me was Rong Mama.

After all, he was fine when he passed away a few days ago. Now, not only are his arms and legs gone, but there is also a bloody hole in his chest. How could he die so tragically?

Nanny Liu was so frightened that she sat down on the ground, her whole body stiff, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses.

"My lady, who did this?"

Madam Rong is the most powerful among all the maids. There are not many people who can kill her. Could it be that evil creature did it?

After hearing her words, the queen regained some of her rationality, stood up, and looked at Rong Mama, who died with her eyes open, with a hint of cruelty in her eyes.

"Who else could it be except that evil creature?"

Rong Mama was once at the top of the killer list. Although she is old now, there are not many people who can kill her.

Thinking about what she was going to do this time, it was not difficult to guess that it must be related to that little beast.

Thinking of this, he glanced in the direction of the imperial study again, with a hint of sarcasm on the corner of his mouth.

“…………”

Without the emperor's permission, Rong Mama would never be sent to him.

It seems that he knows that I am going to kill the vixen, and he is warning me not to act rashly.

She really thought that she was scared. The vixen must die and she will never be let go. Since doing it secretly doesn't work, she will do it openly.

Thinking of this, he turned to look at Aunt Liu beside him.

"Go and ask Big Brother to come over!"

An hour later, Marquis Yongning brought General Cheng and a group of ministers and stood in the imperial study.

After waiting for a long time, the emperor came back with square steps.

Looking at the sweaty Marquis Yongning, a hint of sneer appeared on his lips.

“…………”

This is for Xiaohua.

Seeing the emperor coming, Marquis Yongning and General Cheng and his entourage hurriedly bowed and saluted.

"emperor!"

"Well, I wonder what brings you all to me in such a hurry? What's the matter?"

As the emperor spoke, he sat down on the dragon throne, with no emotion on his face.

"Your Majesty, I would like to report to you about the drought in Jinzhou Prefecture."

As Marquis Yongning spoke, he glanced towards the door. Why hasn't his sister come yet?

Just as I was thinking about it, the voice of Aunt Liu came from the door.

"Please tell Eunuch Li that our Queen is here to bring the Emperor Qingxin Porridge!"

As Ma Liu spoke, she waved the food box in her hand in front of Eunuch Li, her face full of wrinkles as she smiled.

“…………” Eunuch Li was stunned.

I subconsciously glanced at the emperor sitting on the dragon throne, and the emperor actually guessed it right.

He stepped aside to give up his position.

"Please come in, Madam!"

General Cheng glanced at Tutor Sun and frowned slightly.

“…………”

Why does it feel a little wrong?
