Chapter 148 Undercurrent



Tao Yuwei and Wu turned around together. When Tao Yuwei saw the person coming, her eyes widened in surprise.

A graceful figure, followed by a palace maid, appeared in front of the mother and daughter.

The woman had a curvy figure, which was in stark contrast to her fair and delicate face. When people saw her, they all sighed that her face was pure and sweet.

Tao Yuwei cursed several times.

When did the Emperor's taste change? Doesn't he prefer the voluptuous type like Concubine Huo?

[Why did it change to a combination of alluring and childish? ]

【Could it be that she has some ulterior motive? 】

This Concubine Yun doesn't look very old, probably only eighteen or nineteen years old at most.

Who presented this beauty to Your Majesty?

How could she be as innocent as she looks when she could specifically call out to the mother and daughter among these noble ladies and reveal their identities right away?

Before Tao Yuwei could think of any conspiracy theories, Empress Yun Fei, who walked with such beautiful grace, spoke again.

Mrs. Wu agreed with her daughter's words. This Concubine Yun was no ordinary person.

"Madam General, please stay. I have just arrived at the palace and am not familiar with everything here. Can you please come with me?"

Concubine Yun looked at Wu with her innocent almond-shaped eyes.

"You're welcome, my lady. Let's go together."

Wu didn't know much about Concubine Yun who suddenly appeared, but she would not lose face for her in person.

"Thank you very much, Madam General." Concubine Yun said in a simple and childish tone, and took Wu's hand in a familiar manner and walked together.

Seeing this, Tao Yuwei let her mother entertain the guests while she stayed quietly on the other side.

So, they entered the Yuqiong Tower.

As soon as you enter the hall.

The seats of Emperor Jianchang's concubines were near the front, some distance away from the ministers' families.

But the Concubine Yun who followed the mother and daughter into the hall chose to sit on Wu's right.

This action made Tao Yuwei think more.

Especially when her gaze accidentally fell on someone diagonally opposite her.

The doubts hanging in her mind seemed to be resolved at once.

[I was wondering why some people couldn't sit still anymore. After all this time, someone is planning to attack my mom!]

Tao Yuwei withdrew her gaze from the opposite side and looked at Wu again, secretly saying in her heart, "Although the plot has changed, the conspiracy against my mother still exists."

[In the original plot, my mother was drugged by Fang and my second aunt, together with people from outside, and everyone saw her lying with another man on the spot.

After my mother regained consciousness, she was unable to defend herself and so she took poison in anger and died. She could not rest in peace even after her death.

He was reviled by everyone in the capital for his misconduct, and his mother's family was also saddled with a bad reputation. His maternal grandfather, General Weiyuan, also lost the support of his army. In the great battle with the Nanman, he was defeated and, after being held accountable by His Majesty, he committed suicide.

By then, Dad had been torn to pieces by five horses. To overturn his family's case, my eldest brother fought tooth and nail on the battlefields of Northern Xinjiang, fighting to the death. He only sought military merit and returned to clear his family's name. Little did he know, however, that this was all a conspiracy, and he perished in the targeted killing.

From then on, the gates of the Great Zhou were trampled by the barbarian cavalry, and the country was shattered. The Eighth Prince, who ascended the throne, was cruel and merciless, becoming the ruler of a fallen nation! Widespread grief and suffering filled the land, and he became a slave to the fallen nation.

Tao Yuwei's thoughts were not only heard by Wu, but also by Tao Zhihong, the male guest who had just sat down at the opposite table, and Tao Zixing, who had just returned from the Imperial College.

Xiao Lichen, who was sitting in a wheelchair and being pushed out into the hall, could hear it clearly.

Each of their faces changed drastically.

An unknown anger and trembling were aroused in my heart.

What? The Great Zhou Dynasty was destroyed?

They didn't know what the original plot meant, but they understood the rest of the words very clearly.

It seems that the Great Zhou Dynasty is peaceful and the world is united.

In reality, the undercurrent is surging, the torrent is constant, and the dark hand that is hiding behind and controlling all of this has already noticed it. So, next, we must first cut off the hand that is causing chaos in the government.

We must chop off those people's heads again and never watch our country's land being trampled by barbarians.

We will never allow the people of the Great Zhou to be enslaved and trampled into the mud.

Wu had followed Tao Zhihong in fighting at the border for many years, so of course she understood the attitude of the barbarians towards the people of the Great Zhou.

Every time they invade the border, they kill and burn people, loot supplies, insult women, and kidnap people as slaves. They are all barbarians and are capable of doing anything.

She couldn't imagine how the entire Great Zhou would be plunged into bloodshed once the country was destroyed.

And the conspiracy of all this actually started with framing his own family.

"Madam General, what's wrong with you?"

Concubine Yun looked at her closely with worried eyes.

"I just had a headache, but it's just an old problem. It's nothing now."

After casually dealing with Concubine Yun who was sitting next to her, Wu perked up and appeared calm on the surface, but in reality, she paid full attention to everything around her and became more alert.

To prevent what my daughter said from happening.

"Mom, you have a headache, so don't drink tonight."

On the left, Tao Yuwei implicitly reminded her mother not to eat and drink casually in the palace.

Wu nodded in understanding, "Okay, I'll ask the court doctor to take a look when we get back home."

Tao Zhihong, who was sitting in the seat opposite, was able to suppress his murderous intent.

Very good, everyone wants to take advantage of his family, right? Well, he might as well let everyone get into chaos.

Those people thought he was really weak and easy to bully.
