1910 Meet, I'll Hold Up the Sky If It Falls

The enthronement ceremony ended in failure. Although everyone changed Madam Min's title to Grand Empress Dowager, in the eyes of many people, the enthronement ceremony was not completed, and the title of Grand Empress Dowager always seemed a little inappropriate.

Especially when the people knew that the master said that Madam Min would affect the country's destiny once she left the temple, the people of Dongling became even more resistant to the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager was only in name only in Dongling.

This is what Empress Dowager Xie is happy to see. Since the Ninth Prince is not in the imperial city, it is good that Empress Dowager Xie does not add fuel to the flames. She will not stop the spread of rumors at all.

As for Wang Jinling?

Not to mention that he didn't have the intention, even if he had the intention, he was powerless at this moment. The Ninth Prince was gone, Fu Lin and Yuwen Yuanhua were not around, and he was the only one in charge of Dongling's internal affairs, and now he had to appease the uneasy officials and frightened people. He was so busy that he didn't even have time to close his eyes, so how could he have the time to care about such trivial matters as the Empress Dowager.

Madam Min wanted to use this opportunity to clear her name, but she simply didn't have the ability. She had a shallow foundation in Dongling, and she didn't dare to use the people who had stayed behind. She could only watch helplessly as everything she had worked so hard for was destroyed by rumors...

However, Madam Min was not a woman who would be easily defeated. What happened at the enthronement ceremony did not affect her at all. The next day, she got up as usual, chanting and copying scriptures every day, with a pious look on her face.

"Madam Min, you won't really accept your fate and plan to live a life of seclusion and worship Buddha for the rest of your life?" Feng Qingchen raised his eyebrows in surprise when he received the news. Madam Min shouldn't be someone who would give up easily. If she was really so content, the Ninth Prince would not have wasted his time plotting against her.

Sure enough, when the news that the Ninth Prince arrived at the border and commanded his soldiers to victory was passed back to the capital, Madam Min became active again.

"I want to see Feng Qingchen." Madam Min said to the person who served her. Seeing that the other party was unmoved, Madam Min continued: "I just can't leave the temple, which doesn't mean I can't see outsiders. I want to see Feng Qingchen before dark today, otherwise... I will die here."

Madam Min looked determined when she said this, and the servants who served her absolutely believed that Madam Min could do it.

If Madam Min really died, it would definitely be a troublesome matter. The Ninth Prince might even blame them. The servants did not dare to make a decision on their own and immediately reported the matter to Wang Jinling.

Wang Jinling rubbed his brows and raised his head from the pile of memorials: "Go to the Feng Mansion and tell Miss Feng that she can make her own decision. Tell Miss Feng that she doesn't have to force herself. If the sky falls, I will hold it up."

The clear voice was a little hoarse, which showed how busy Wang Jinling had been recently.

"Yes." The servant hurried to Feng Mansion again and repeated Madam Min's original words. After thinking about it, he repeated Wang Jinling's words word for word.

Although she is the Ninth Prince's woman, but...but when the eldest young master said this, it really made people feel moved. The young master is a good man.

Feng Qingchen did not answer immediately, but fell into deep thought.

She knew that Madam Min was not a simple person. Even if she didn't really die, she would still make a big fuss. Wang Jinling was already busy enough, and she couldn't cause any more trouble for Wang Jinling.

However, she compromised as soon as Madam Min threatened her with death, and Madam Min would become more and more demanding in the future.

Feng Qingchen pondered for a moment and said, "Tell the Grand Empress Dowager that I am too busy now and cannot spare the time. Please wait for me for three days. I will go to pay my respects to the Grand Empress Dowager after three days."

"Yes." With Wang Jinling and Feng Qingchen's words, the servants were not afraid that Madam Min would cause trouble. If something happened, they would have these two big Buddhas to support them.

He hurried back to the temple before dark and tactfully told the Grand Empress Dowager what Feng Qingfa meant, and the servants breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the Grand Empress Dowager did not sit quietly.

This was a test. Madam Min was testing the bottom line of the imperial court, and Feng Qingchen was also testing Madam Min's bottom line. The result...

It’s hard to say whether we are satisfied or not, it’s just that we have both taken a step back.

However, Feng Qingchen was not lying when she said she was busy. She was worried about how to politely reject Lan Jingyang's request. She knew Lan Jingyang's illness better than anyone else. She had violated her principles and attacked Lan Jingyang. Now she was going to treat her. She would never do such a shameful thing.

As a result, before Feng Qingchen could find a reason to refuse, news came from Liancheng that something seemed to have happened to Liancheng and Lan Jingyang did not seem to be coming.

"Have someone keep an eye on him and report back as soon as there is any news." Feng Qingchen understood better than anyone else how much Lan Jingyang, this villain, valued his life so much that he was willing to stay here regardless of his own life. How serious must the matter be?

Feng Qing's guess was correct. The reason why Lan Jingyang didn't come was not because he didn't want to, but because he couldn't come out. At some point, many things related to the previous dynasty suddenly happened in the Kyushu Continent, and the first to bear the brunt was the new Lord of Liancheng, Mr. Jingyang.

Rumor has it that Mr. Jingyang is a descendant of the royal family of the previous dynasty, the only son of the little prince of the previous dynasty, and a direct descendant of the royal family of Lan, but he knows the location of the treasure of the previous dynasty.

The people of Baigui Palace knew this news, so they sent people to sneak into Liancheng to try to find out the information about the treasure of the previous dynasty.

The origin of the Hundred Ghosts Palace was known to everyone with some connections. The Ghost King himself was also a descendant of the Lan family, and he had a blood feud with Lan Jingyang. As for the treasure of the previous dynasty, although the four countries had never seen the shadow of the treasure, they had heard some rumors and firmly believed that the previous dynasty must have left behind a large amount of treasure.

Over the years, there have been many reports about the treasures of the previous dynasty, but there has never been a definite target. Now that an important person has finally been exposed, the people in the cities of the four countries are not willing to let him go.

People die for money, birds die for money. Smart people know that the four kingdoms and nine cities will soon be reshuffled. If you want to occupy a place in the coming chaos and take advantage of the opportunity to surpass other countries, you must strengthen your national strength before the chaos, and what is faster than arming yourself with the treasures of the previous dynasty.

All the countries and cities were ready to make a move. No matter whether it was true or false, no one wanted to fall behind. No matter what, they had to find out Lan Jingyang's identity first. But before they could send someone to investigate, news broke that the Cui family was harboring Lan's descendants, Xuanyue Palace was a loyal subordinate of Lan, and the former princess was in Xuanyue Palace.

These big news one after another stunned everyone. The shadow of the previous dynasty had finally faded away, but in an instant it once again loomed over the four countries and nine cities.

"What is going on? Didn't they say that all the royal family members of the previous dynasty died? How come there are still so many alive?" Emperor Beiling was lying on his sickbed, struggling to get up, preparing to summon the ministers to discuss Beiling's position and plans.

"Is there still bloodline of the royal family of the previous dynasty? And there are still treasures of the previous dynasty... Why didn't we receive any news before? Are the people in the Jixia Academy? How does the Zhan family do things?" The emperor of Nanling was so angry that he slammed the table.

These bastards only know how to quarrel every day. For their own interests, they caused Nanling to lose the initiative and did not get any benefits from Dongling. What about now?

The descendants of the royal family of the previous dynasty are right under their noses, but they still have to wait for others to tell them. These people deserve to die!

When Emperor Nanling thought about the troubles he had been having recently, he was so angry that he wanted to kill someone. As for Xiling...
