Chapter 199 Imperial Power, An Empress [38]



Everything can only be left to nature.

"CEO, are you getting used to it here?" Shang Xian asked with his usual smile.

"It's alright" is just that—alright...

“If he wanted to, he could wipe out the enemy in less than three days,” Moxie said.

"I'm waiting for the right opportunity. I can't wait any longer," Shen Yi said slowly. Now that he has the Tiger Tally, his main task here in this fortress is to build good relationships with the soldiers so that they can be used by him in the future. As long as he holds the Tiger Tally and the people are on his side, they won't say anything even if someone forces him to abdicate.

As for the timing... it's about having a legitimate reason for Dugu Qianchen to abdicate, at least giving him a reason.

"I had Prime Minister Ning write my resignation letter. Now I really have no one to rely on in this harem," Shang Xian said with a shrug.

Shen Yi smiled and said, "You're quite clever."

If Shang Xian is the reason, that seems reasonable.

"It's getting late, Little Fairy, let's go," Moxi reminded her.

Shen Yi nodded: "Go back early."

After saying goodbye to Shen Yi, Shang Xian left with Mo Xi.

I slept well all night.

She slept soundly, while shocking news was spreading throughout the palace—

Ning Youxiang has resigned from his post.

Although Dugu Qianchen and the other three knew something was going to happen, they never expected Ning Renqing to resign.

After the court session, the four of them gathered in the imperial study to discuss the matter.

"The Empress is the apple of the Prime Minister's eye. He has endured so much for her sake, so why did he resign?" Dugu Lianbai was completely puzzled.

"But this might be a good thing." Dugu Qianchen was surprised, but it was indeed a good thing.

"Your Majesty, you may not know that the Right Chancellor had already prepared to resign two years ago. Although you intended for me to keep the Right Chancellor in check, in fact, if the Right Chancellor hadn't wanted me to take care of Her Majesty the Empress after his resignation, you wouldn't have asked me to be Her Majesty the Empress's tutor."

"But the fact is that the Right Chancellor has resigned. The Right Chancellor's Mansion, which was the Empress's support, no longer exists. Won't the Empress's status plummet even further?" Rong Ling was really worried for Shang Xian. Why did Ning Renqing choose to resign at this time!

“But Her Majesty the Empress didn’t seem sad at all. She seemed… very happy.” Yu Hanzhi thought of Shang Xian last night, as if everything had been arranged by her.

"She's probably gone mad!" Even Dugu Qianchen was a little worried about the empress.

Dugu Qianchen suddenly said to the eunuchs waiting outside, "Summon the Empress to the Imperial Study."

He thought for a moment and said, "Never mind, I'll go myself."

The other three naturally followed.

——

Shang Xian lay on the chaise lounge, rocking gently. A gauze curtain lightly covered her face, the shadows of the trees swayed, and the sunlight dappled onto her clothes. Mu Se stood beside her, fanning her with a small fan. She was very comfortable.

She's always been in this state; she's living too comfortably, and this lazy lifestyle is the kind of life she wants.

Suddenly, Mu Shi stopped what she was doing and whispered, "Your Majesty, it seems the Emperor and the others have arrived."

Shang Xian remained completely calm, a slight smile playing on her lips: "Tell them I'm asleep, the kind you can't wake up."

Twilight nodded. She had been somewhat changed by Shang Xian's personality. Everything could be resolved. With Shang Xian around, there would be no problem.

When Dugu Qianchen and the other three walked in, they were truly astonished to see Shang Xian lying on the rocking chair looking so stunning.

Mu Shi curtsied to Dugu Qianchen and whispered, "Your Majesty, the Empress is asleep."
