When the Empress Becomes a Rich Family's Wasted Daughter

I never thought that he would do such a daring thing without caring about the life and death of his family...

In the deep palace, there are thousands of palace gates, illuminated by golden lanterns, and cloud curtains quietly hanging between the dragon pillars. The shadows of people kneeling in the hall are frozen on the palace bricks. No one knows what the people kneeling are thinking.

Above the hall, bright yellow light flickered. Rong Zhen slowly stood up and spoke in a cold voice.

"Gao Li, I have been in seclusion for a long time, and have been a scholar for forty-nine years."

"I want to ask an old minister to help me with disaster relief. Do you know whose retainer Liu Wen, who wrote the proclamation under Linglong County Master, was?"

"Everyone in the world knows that he was a former retainer of Gao Li who was ordered by me to go to the northern border to provide disaster relief!"

"Is it that those who are capable should be given more work, or am I abusing my power for personal gain?"

"Answer me! You spoke eloquently in the memorial, but now that you see me, you are silent?"

All the ministers still bowed their heads, only the left prime minister, who was in the lead, raised his head and answered slowly: "Your Majesty, all the ministers in the court know Gao Shiyi's character and character, and he has received the grace of the Emperor Daqian. How dare they be so suspicious of Your Majesty..."

Before he could finish his words, he saw the Grand Secretary beside him had a cold expression on his face.

as predicted.

The woman on the high seat walked down quickly, with a cold expression on her pretty face, and in just a moment she reached the left prime minister.

"Oh? If I remember correctly, the Prime Minister was drinking and writing poetry with this old Marquis Mu a few days ago. I would like to ask the Prime Minister."

"You are in charge of all officials. Did Lord Mu tell you that his godson dared to swallow the grain I used for disaster relief? He dared to swallow the silver I used for disaster relief! He dared to kill the people I sent!"

"You are incompetent and unworthy, so what qualifications do you have to kneel here? I will only count to three, and you will get out of the imperial city immediately! One..."

The left prime minister suppressed his inner panic and his face darkened. In the moment when no one could see, a vicious look flashed across his eyes. "She was just a woman, used to being strong on the battlefield. Did she really think it was the same in the court?"

"two."

The woman's voice was like the arrival of a messenger from hell.

The Left Prime Minister looked around, trying to arouse the sympathy of the ministers around him, and when he saw those who were eager to try, some hesitation appeared on his face.

D.

The Empress Chaoge had difficulty in every step, and the difficulty came from these people.

"three."

Suddenly a cool breeze blew into the hall. As the lights flickered, the Left Prime Minister let out a muffled groan. A fishy smell filled the hall and splashed all over the face of the person kneeling next to him.

His eyes widened in horror, but he knew he couldn't scream.

The corners of Rong Zhen's eyes twitched, and he threw the sword to the ground, making a sharp sound of metal.

"Let me ask you again, Mu family, what should we do?"

"Do you want me to help you bring back the former Empress Dowager from the Imperial Mausoleum? Or, you can go ask her?"

The bright yellow robe was splattered with blood, but the woman's face was as pale as moonlight. Her previous anger had been completely suppressed. In the dim light, it was impossible to see the woman's expression clearly.

All they could feel was the chill in the gaze that swept over them, causing the high-ranking ministers kneeling in the hall to shiver involuntarily.

They could sense it.

After tonight, things will be different...

The Empress Chaoge even killed the Left Prime Minister. There is no doubt about her attitude. Her tolerance towards civil officials and indulgence towards relatives by marriage have reached the extreme.

It reached its peak with the death of old ministers Gao Li and Gao Shiyi, and the suffering of the disaster victims in the north.

......

The maid, dressed in delicate clothes, holding the tea tray, walked through the screen and went into the warm room.

The large gilded brazier was burning brightly, with the aroma of incense curling up into the air. Princess Linglong felt a little hot, and she was only wearing a small satin dress, revealing her slender, fair skin, with her entire face flushed.

"County Lord, there is news."

After hearing this, she slightly opened her eyes and calmly looked at the wax-sealed letter.

"How many people died?"

The maid hesitated for a moment, then pursed her lips and asked.

"If the county lady asks the common people, the Chaoge Army sent by Rong Zhen cooperated with the Cavalry Battalion left in the northern border by Cheng Yunyu to settle the victims, and transferred doctors and female doctors from the two neighboring cities. The imperial physician of the Divine Capital also led a team to the Divine Capital. As for the common people, no casualties have been counted yet."

It seemed that she was not frightened by Rong Zhen's swift and decisive measures. Princess Linglong's face flushed, as if she was acting coquettishly.

"What's the reward?"

"County Lady, although Rong Zhen's methods are fierce and Cheng Yunyu has also kept a backup plan, it is a fact that she sent Gao Li. The Mu family embezzled the disaster relief grain, and it is only a matter of time before they are investigated."

"Everyone knows that Gao Shiyi is a man of noble character and dedicated to serving the people. He died. Was it Rong Zhen who sent him there for the sake of the overall situation, or was it Rong Zhen who knew that there was a dangerous place ahead and deliberately let him go..."

Princess Linglong smiled.

"Go, find Liu Wen."

......

After the palace gates were sealed, Rong Zhen began to summon ministers one by one.

Old Marquis Mu was kneeling outside the imperial city, with the entire Mu family kneeling behind him, begging to see the emperor.

Like many people, he just asked for a few words.

"D."

"Don't let your children or grandchildren suffer from this disaster."

Just when all the civil and military officials above the fourth rank in the court were nervously on standby at home.

A secret order quietly came out of the imperial city.

The chief of the Imperial City Administration brought five thousand soldiers from the Imperial City to search the residence of the Marquis of Loyalty. Old Marquis Mu panicked when he saw the body of the Left Prime Minister being carried out.

The secret passage of the Marquis's mansion had long been sealed off by the imperial city's inner army, and those who resisted would be punished on the spot.

In the divine capital, there is a place that is one of the symbols of imperial power.

That's it.

The Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty.

But this short night passed.

Everyone knows that this symbol is gone...

That night, the empress who was guarding the center and was criticized by many people, roared like a lion for a small seventh-rank official and for the poor victims in the north.

The imperial power of Daqian was greatly shaken.

On the second day, the flag belonging to Empress Chaoge stood at the top of the northern border, above the imperial city of Shendu, fluttering in the wind.

Outside Qianrong Palace, Rongzhen looked up and looked at the plaque on the door.

Emperor Qianzu personally proposed it.

The world is bright and the country is prosperous.

Rong Zhen's body trembled slightly, and an inexplicable emotion surged in her chest. Ever since she was old enough to understand, she had never wanted power.

But as she traveled around, she saw the so-called prosperous era of the Great Qian Dynasty, in which the poor were so poor that they had to eat each other, while the rich were still rich.

She was originally just a small Taoist priest in a Taoist temple.

By chance, I got to learn from a master, and I hope that this world will be a truly prosperous place.

I didn't expect this word to be real.

It's light and easy to read.

It is extremely difficult to do.

The collusion with the imperial power could even be traced back to her, the girl who was born to Qin Guiren from a little palace maid, and she would also be hunted down.

She went from being innocent to being tough and resilient now.

She used to be unable to tolerate any injustice, but now she is very cautious in every step she takes.

Years of suffering.

Many years of hardship.

Many years ago, a young man who had also suffered enough but still had clear eyes, held her hand and told her.

Her dream will definitely come true.
