Under pressure from Su Changzhao's power, Du Lan'er left in anger.
But after coming out, she couldn't stop thinking about it.
It is obvious that she is the noble lady personally appointed by His Majesty.
Fu Ningshuang was just a failed beauty queen who was ignored by her superiors.
"That Su guy really has no tact at all. He doesn't try to curry favor with a noble man like me, but instead protects that little bitch Fu Ningshuang." Du Lan'er said gritting her teeth.
"My dear master, trouble comes from the mouth."
The palace maid Xiao'e immediately looked around, fearing that someone might hear her.
Seeing how timid she was, Dulaner slapped her in the face.
"Ah!" Xiao'e screamed in pain, covered her cheek, and lowered her head with a look of grievance.
"You are useless too. Others will help their masters solve problems, but what else can you do except eat, drink, defecate, urinate and sleep!"
Xiao'e: "..."
"It really pissed me off."
Du Laner was furious and felt hot all over. She fanned herself with her hands, as if trying to dispel the anger in her heart.
But soon her movements slowed down.
"That's not right. Why did Prince Rao An come to the Xiu Nu Pavilion?"
"Shouldn't someone of her status be very busy? How could she have the time to meddle in the affairs of the harem?"
"No, Prince Rao An just believed that bitch Fu Ningshuang based on one side of the story. During the last talent show, he seemed to be full of praise for that bitch. Could it be that..."
Du Laner seemed to have thought of something, the corners of her lips curled up, and there was a cunning look in her eyes.
Su Changzhao, Su Changzhao, you, a eunuch, actually had inappropriate thoughts about His Majesty's woman, so don't blame me.
Thinking about it, he called Xiao'e to whisper in his ear.
"Do you remember everything I said?"
When Xiao'e heard her order, surprise and fear flashed in her eyes, but she was more afraid of being beaten by Du Lan'er when she returned, so she had to agree.
"Yes, I will complete the task assigned by my master."
"Well, go ahead."
After they leave.
Yu Jiuchen and Meng Wei walked out from the corner.
Looking at the backs of the master and servant leaving, Yu Jiuchen's handsome face darkened.
"Meng Wei, send someone to keep an eye on it."
"I obey your order."
·
Taiwei Mansion.
On this day, many officials were standing in the huge study.
All these officials were facing an old man who was sitting behind a desk. He was over sixty years old, with half white hair, but his eyes were unusually sharp.
The old man tapped the armrest slowly with his fingers, and his eyes swept over the officials opposite him one by one.
You could hear a pin drop in the whole room.
Until the old man's finger stopped: "You are all the pillars of our dynasty. What do you think about Wang Mengquan's matter?"
The tone is casual, but it carries a dignity that should not be taken lightly.
The seven or eight officials in front of me looked at each other, and no one wanted to be the first to speak.
Because if they say something wrong, they might anger the big boss in front of them, and they really don't have the courage to do that.
Yet among all the officials.
There is one person who is different from everyone else.
This man was close to forty years old. He did not make eye contact with anyone. His eyes were always fixed on the ground with a look of disdain on his face. Even if he did not speak, the cunningness could be seen from him.
Lu Xianzong noticed him immediately.
He is the Minister of Personnel, Xu Daichou.
"Lord Xu, it seems you have a good idea." Lu Xianzong called out his name.
Xu Daichou didn't seem surprised at all, and said with a folded hand: "I think it's time to unite and deal with the eunuch."
Everyone present knew exactly who the 'castrated dog' was referring to.
"Alas, your Majesty is incompetent and favors eunuchs. It is really chilling to think that my century-old foundation of Yulong will be destroyed by a eunuch."
"That's right. The eunuchs took advantage of their favor and established the Supervisory Council. They have the right to interfere in everything our six ministries do. The court is under the supervision of the Supervisory Council. If there is any dissatisfaction, they will be severely suppressed. When will this day end?"
Everyone started complaining one after another.
It was at this moment that Xu Daichou and Lu Xianzong exchanged glances in a place where no one else could see.
Then, Xu Daichou said: "I, Xu Daichou, have been blessed by the late emperor and have the honor to serve in two dynasties. I really cannot bear to see the late emperor's foundation destroyed in an instant.
I dare to say what others dare not say!
The one sitting on the dragon throne now is the eunuch, a puppet who plays power games and controls the government!
What's even more outrageous is that he ignored his favor in the harem and had an affair with that eunuch.
It's totally against moral principles!
That sickly guy is not fit to be the king of a country!
That eunuch Su Changzhao is someone that anyone can kill!
Over the years, how many loyal and good generals have been persecuted at the behest of incompetent rulers?
Wang Mengquan, Lord Wang, what a loyal and patriotic man you are.
In his early years, he followed the late emperor in his military campaigns, shed blood on the territory, and made great achievements, but they accused him of forcing the emperor to abdicate!
Who knows, will we be the next one? "
Xu Daichou's speech was passionate, and the officials present were gradually persuaded. They whispered to each other and nodded repeatedly.
"Yes! Lord Xu is right!"
"Yes! We must unite!"
"But," someone asked, "Yu Jiuchen is the only legitimate royal bloodline left in the Yu family. If we get rid of him..."
Xu Daichou's face showed disdain, as if he knew that some people would worry about this issue.
He immediately clapped his hands, and soon a handsome young man of only twelve or thirteen walked in from outside the study.
When I saw the boy's face.
Someone asked in astonishment: "King Jin?"
Prince Jin, Yu Chengjin, is the son of the late emperor's elder brother. In terms of bloodline, he is more qualified to inherit the throne than Yu Jiuchen.
"He's not dead?"
Xu Daichou explained: "Back then, the eunuchs slaughtered many members of the royal family in order to secure the throne for the dog emperor. I spared no effort to protect Prince Jin."
Hearing this, everyone nodded in understanding.
Now, there is someone sitting on the throne.
It's time for a change.
Follow Yu Chengjin to Lu Xianzong.
Lu Xianzong shouted at the right time: "Kill the tyrant! Kill the eunuch!"
His old and deep voice undoubtedly expressed everyone's thoughts at this moment.
"Kill the tyrant! Kill the eunuch!"
"Kill the tyrant! Kill the eunuch!"
Everyone said in unison.

That night.
Raoan Palace.
Li Xing was standing in the yard, watching Su Changzhao eating lotus cakes and appreciating the moon on the roof.
Tonight, Su Changzhao was only wearing a simple plain robe.
Without the official uniform, she looked like an elegant gentleman with peerless beauty bathed in the moonlight.
Who could have imagined that she would have the supreme power over life and death?
The next moment.
The person on the roof glanced down with beautiful eyes.
"What are you standing there for? Come up."
Su Chang summoned him.
Li Xing did so immediately.
Just a touch of the ground and you're on the roof.
He came to Su Changzhao and called him respectfully, "Your Highness."
"What's a thousand years old?" Su Changzhao didn't look at him, but patted the place beside him with his hands: "Look at the moon with me."
"..." Li Xing was stunned for a moment, looking at Su Changzhao's perfect profile, and then replied softly: "Yes."
After sitting down, a hand was immediately extended in front of me, and on the palm was a dessert that was green on the outside and pink on the inside, shaped like a lotus flower.
It was Su Changzhao’s favorite fairy lotus pastry.
Only the chef at Yuchunzhai can make this.
A limited number of them were sold each day, and Su Changzhao liked them very much, so he secretly asked him to buy some every time.
No one else knows about this.
And at this moment, she generously shared it with herself.
To be honest, Li Xing was a little flattered.
Su Changzhao noticed that Li Xing hadn't taken it yet, so he turned his head to look.
Seeing that silly boy just staring at the lotus cake in her hand and not taking it, she immediately came up with a plan.
Suddenly.
“Ah~”
"!!"
Li Xing's lips tightened when he found that Su Changzhao personally brought the lotus pastry to his mouth.
"Master Qian...Master Qiansui?"
