Capital

"Cough, cough, cough."

"puff!"

"Girl! How are you, girl?"

As soon as Miss Mengyi walked into the door, she saw the woman on the bed spit out a mouthful of blood and almost fainted.

She walked over anxiously and wiped the blood from her mouth in panic.

"Miss, your health is getting worse and worse, why haven't you sent the medicine over there yet? If you delay any longer, your life might be in danger!"

The girl's illness requires her to take specific medication every month, but more than three months have passed since the last time she received the medication!

If there is no more medicine, I'm afraid the girl won't survive this winter.

"It's okay. The people over there won't ignore me. They must have known about Young Master Mu's departure from the capital, so they are trying to intimidate me. Ahem, if I can hold on for another month, they should send me medicine. Ahem."

Although she said so, Miss Mengyi was still worried.

The girl's health is getting worse day by day. It will be a full moon night soon, and the poisonous insects in her body are about to break out again. Given her current condition, it is still unclear whether she can survive the poisonous insects.

"Miss, how about I send someone to forge a letter from Princess Shen and lure Shen Qiuchi out? Based on the relationship between you and Shen Qiuchi, she will definitely use the Thousand Machine Secret to save you." Miss Meng Yi said.

They have been lurking in the capital for so many years just to find the Thousand Machines Technique, and now they know that the Thousand Machines Technique is in Shen Qiuchi's hands.

If they get the Thousand Machine Secrets, the people over there will remove the poison from the girl's body and give her the prescription to cure her illness. If they don't get the Thousand Machine Secrets, then all of them who are lurking in the capital will be buried with the girl.

But ever since the girl knew that the Thousand Machine Secret was in Shen Qiuchi's hands, she has been hesitant to take any action.

"Don't act on your own. I know what I'm doing. Cough, cough, cough." The girl had a pale face, but her thin features still couldn't hide her stunning beauty.

However, this stunning beauty only showed half of her face. The other half was extremely ugly, with a large burn scar on it.

"But girl, your body..."

"It's okay. I still have things to do. I won't fall down easily. By the way, how is the investigation going for me?"

Seeing the girl like this, Miss Mengyi could only sigh and follow her.

"As expected by the young lady, they have indeed sent people to the border. I estimate that it won't be long before news of unrest comes from the border."

There is unrest in the court now and people's hearts are divided. If something happens on the border again at this time, the Daliang Kingdom will be vulnerable.

"You send people to the border and find a way to find the people over there and get rid of them. At this time, the border must not be in chaos! Cough cough cough cough cough!" The girl said, coughing up another pool of blood.

"But girl, if you do this, the people over there will suspect that you are rebelling. What if they really give up on you then?" Miss Meng Yi was very anxious. Even if she wanted to protect Daliang, she couldn't take such a risk!

"Don't worry, the people over there won't know it was me who did it. You send this to Shen Qiuchi by carrier pigeon, and she will understand. She will help me deal with it." The girl handed a piece of white paper with a missing corner to Miss Meng Yi.

This is the secret code between her and Shen Qiuchi.

Sure enough, Shen Qiuchi was shocked when he received this inexplicable carrier pigeon.

So, she was not dead? She was even in the capital?

This piece of letter is missing a corner. Does it mean something will happen at the border?

"Come here, pass on the order and order General Weiwu to go to the border immediately. Tell him that my people have discovered a traitor and we need General Weiwu to go and clean up the army!"

"Yes!"

Shen Qiuchi looked at the white letter in his hand, his thoughts flying.

Since she is alive, why didn't he want to see her for so many years?

And how did she know that there was a spy at the border?

And which forces are these people who are disrupting the border from?

"My Queen, something bad has happened! Letters of conspiracy with the enemy country were found in General Weiwu's study. Now General Weiwu has been taken to prison!"

The eunuch's hurried voice came from outside, and Shen Qiuchi clenched his fists.

It seems that there is a traitor in the capital too.

Otherwise, why was General Weiwu found out after a traitor appeared on the border?

This was obviously done intentionally by someone.

If the mighty general was eliminated, the entire Daliang army would be in panic, and eventually would be defeated.

"Go to the main hall."

She wanted to see who had such courage!

In the main hall, Xiao Qi leaned against the dragon chair, pinching his brows, his face full of fatigue.

The court officials below were still arguing.

Some people say that General Weiwu is the backbone of the Daliang army and will never betray Daliang.

But some people also say that the mighty general is more powerful than his master and must be very ambitious.

Xiao Qi tried several times to speak up for General Weiwu, but as soon as he started to defend him, those people who said that General Weiwu was a traitor would fight to the death.

He killed several people, but still couldn't quell the situation.

There was no other way. He could only let these people quarrel and wait for Shen Qiuchi to come.

With Shen Qiuchi around, he can keep these people under control.

What's more, when General Weiwu asked to retire, it was Shen Qiuchi who knelt down personally and begged General Weiwu to stay for a few more years to bless Daliang with peace.

"Since you are so eloquent, why don't you be the emperor?" Shen Qiuchi had a cold face. Her voice was not too loud, but it was able to go deep into people's hearts and made all the arguing ministers shut up.

"Empress, it is said that the harem is not allowed to interfere in government affairs. When the Emperor left the capital for inspection, it was fine to let you govern the country. But now that the Emperor is sitting on the dragon throne, it is unreasonable for the Empress to interfere in court affairs." The speaker was a civil official.

Although this person has no ability, he is the most pedantic and the best at talking useless nonsense.

He has always looked down on Shen Qiuchi, and every time someone said they wanted to destroy this evil queen Shen Qiuchi, he was the one who shouted the loudest.

"Hehe, who is the emperor, are you or my father? My father hasn't said anything yet, but you are so impatient to speak first. It's really true that the eunuchs are anxious while the emperor is not." Xiao Yanyun sat next to Xiao Qi and mocked him mercilessly.

"Your Highness, this is all for the good of Daliang. Since ancient times, any country where women have interfered in politics has been destroyed! It shows that women are a scourge!"

When the old minister said this, all the ministers present took a deep breath.

This is really a bit reckless.

"This man is so shameless that he even cursed the downfall of Daliang. Take him away and execute him."

This was not the first time he had said that the Daliang Kingdom would be destroyed. Xiao Qi had tolerated him long enough.
