I have a supermarket system, shocking the whole court

"The whole world belongs to the emperor! Not to mention the imperial guards. Who do they serve? Who have they let sleep soundly for so many years? Don't you know that?"

"Of course you can now, but what about in the future? When Jin'er grows up and learns to disobey you, can you still say that the guards are his? I'm afraid that the guards who protect him will become rebels who kill him, right?"

"Watch your words!"

"Why, did I hit the nail on the head? Are you anxious?"

Queen Mother Shang frowned and slapped him. She had practiced martial arts since she was young, and even though she had lived a life of luxury for so many years, her palm power was not comparable to that of an ordinary woman.

The Empress Dowager did not expect Queen Dowager Shang to suddenly attack her. She only felt a pain on her cheek, and the next second she lost weight and fell to the ground.

Ning Ning couldn't help but be dumbfounded watching this royal fight in the dark. It turned out that the women in the palace didn't just talk big, they would also take action when they got anxious!

Furthermore, the quarrel between the two also accidentally revealed a message.

She had never noticed before that the Queen Mother’s surname was Shang!

Shang Wenqi's last name is Shang, so what is his relationship with the Queen Mother? It seems that my previous suspicion that he was the Queen Mother's concubine was wrong.

In fact, he and the Queen Mother are relatives?

Hey, this is incredible, it turns out Shang Wenqi is a royal relative!

Feeling Ning Ning's gaze, Shang Wenqi glanced at her indifferently, as if asking what was the matter.

Ning Ning changed her usual arrogance and grinned in a fawning manner to show that everything was fine.

She wants to hug the thighs of Queen Mother Shang, and she also has to hold tightly to the thighs of the royal relatives.

"I'm sorry for brazenly saying I wanted to steal your girl. Please forgive me and don't take it to heart."

"What are you doing crazy again?" Shang Wenqi glanced at her indifferently, expressing his confusion.

Ning Ning smiled and muttered, "The Concubine said that the whole world belongs to you merchants. I am just a wise man who knows the times..."

Before Ning Ning finished speaking, Shang Wenqi reached out and covered her mouth to prevent her from continuing to speak nonsense.

The fight among the women in the courtyard continues.

Queen Mother Shang stared at the Concubine with a cold gaze: "Do you know what you are doing?

Daliang strictly prohibited private recruitment of soldiers. No matter whether it was a minister or a wealthy family, if the family had more than 300 servants and guards, they would be considered private soldiers. Even for princes and grandchildren, the private soldiers could not exceed 800, otherwise it would be considered as stationing troops for rebellion.

You are so good that you directly asked Liu Yanzhou to keep a thousand people in his mansion!

If we really investigate, it won't just be Liu Yuzhou who will be imprisoned? Your entire Liu family will be executed!"

"I am training soldiers for your majesty. Does that mean your majesty's men are also treasonous?"

Queen Mother Shang still looked at her coldly: "The emperor has his own procedures to follow if he wants private soldiers. If the emperor doesn't like the Zhennan Army, he can ask the Chibei Army and the Chuanyue Army for them. It's not that you raised troops without reporting to the Ministry of War.

What you did today is already considered raising private soldiers!"

"I didn't... No, no."

At this moment, Zuo Yan hurried into the yard. When he saw everything in the courtyard, he was stunned at first, but quickly suppressed his shock and reported seriously.

"Your Highness, the criminal Liu Xianzhou has confessed everything. This is his confession."

"Read it out loud."

"Yes."

Zuo Yan read the confession aloud.

The gist of it is that he has admitted that he was instructed by the concubine to recruit private soldiers, but since raising soldiers required money and food, he sent the private soldiers to Qizhou to steal gold.

In short, the mastermind behind the 100,000 taels of gold was the concubine, and the culprit for recruiting private soldiers was also the concubine.

Queen Mother Shang looked down at the Concubine Dowager coldly: "Now that we have all the evidence, what else do you have to say?"

"I……"

"Please show mercy, mother, and spare my life."

At this moment, the sleepy little emperor ran out of the room. No one knew when he woke up, but judging from his posture, he should have listened to the entire confession.

"Jin'er...Jin'er...I didn't rebel. I did it all for you. I didn't rebel."

"Although you didn't rebel, how is your behavior different from that of a rebel? You stole Daliang's gold, murdered Daliang officials, and raised private soldiers... Which of these things wouldn't be something a rebel would do?"

"Mother, the Concubine didn't do it on purpose. Please be lenient and forgive her."

Compared to the concubine dowager, the young emperor knew much more clearly. After all, he had learned a lot about governing a country during this period. Apart from anything else, he knew the laws of Daliang by heart.

The young emperor knew very well the consequences of his mother's actions.

Originally, he didn't know why his mother suddenly arrested his great-uncle, but now he knows, and he knows it thoroughly.

If my mother really wants to investigate, not only my great-uncle will be in trouble, but my mother will not be able to escape either.

The little emperor could only plead for mercy to his mother at this time.

"Jin'er, you don't have to ask her. Mother is not afraid of death. But you must remember to avenge your mother in the future..."

"Someone, cover the concubine's mouth!" The little emperor suddenly shouted, blocking the concubine from saying anything else.

The nanny who came with the concubine also reacted and quickly covered the concubine's mouth.

Sometimes, once words are spoken, they can't be taken back.

Empress Dowager Shang looked at the covered concubine expressionlessly, "You should be executed for what you did. For the emperor's sake, you can be spared the death penalty but cannot escape the living crime. From today on, you will go to the cold palace to reflect on your mistakes."

The concubine widened her eyes and cursed, as if to say, the late emperor had never punished her, so why should she punish herself to the cold palace.

However, the mammy kept covering her mouth, so the concubine could not make out the curse words.

Even though the concubine was reluctant, Queen Mother Shang had already given the order, and soon the eunuchs and guards in the palace came out and took the concubine away.

The courtyard returned to silence again, only the little emperor was still kneeling on the ground and crying silently.

Queen Mother Shang sighed and said, "Originally, the actions of the Concubine Dowager should have been announced to the world, but considering that she is the Emperor's biological mother, the matter was suppressed to save the dignity of the royal family.

As for Liu Qizhou, it is a fact that he harmed court officials and embezzled gold from the Qizhou gold mine. He cannot escape the death penalty and will be executed in the autumn.

All officials of the three clans of the Liu family were dismissed from office, and the Liu clan's relatives were demoted back to their hometowns and were not allowed to serve as officials in the court for three generations.

Does the Emperor have any objection to my handling of the matter?"

"...Your son will obey your mother completely." The little emperor clenched his fists and said nothing in the end.

Queen Mother Shang glanced at his pale face, quickly concealed the concern in her eyes, and said lightly: "In this case, the emperor should go back to do his homework."

The little emperor froze for a moment, then politely saluted Queen Mother Shang and quietly retreated.

Ning Ning looked at the two people's actions and tilted her head slightly, as if she was thinking about something.

Taikun Palace finally quieted down, but a sharp female voice suddenly rang out the next second.

"What are you doing!"

Ning Ning was startled and looked in the direction of the voice. A beautiful and exquisitely dressed little girl appeared at the gate of Taikun Palace.
