The emperor sent secret guards to inquire about the news of Qin Hou Mansion and Zhao Jiangjun Mansion, but found nothing unusual.

The emperor became even more suspicious, but without evidence, he could do nothing.

The emperor thought of Qin Chen. Qin Chen and Prince Chen had not had any contact over the years. Even when they were in Jiangnan, Prince Chen and Qin Chen had an average relationship.

Lord Qin was also extremely loyal to his emperor.

When Queen Zheng heard this, she thought that this matter might be true, but the emperor and others would definitely not be able to find out the truth.

If that's true, that would be great.

The throne should have been occupied by Prince Chen. If he had the support of Marquis Qin's Mansion, Prince Chen would have a better chance of winning.

But now, the emperor is suspicious of these people, so it would be better if this matter could be kept secret.

Empress Zheng had already made up her mind last year that she would support Prince Chen. None of these princes were reliable. As long as there was a good one, she would support him. All of these adults were as virtuous as the emperor.

They want to win her over now, thinking of taking that position. When they really take that position, they will definitely settle the score later and take action against her and the Duke of Zheng's Mansion.

She didn't care about the position of Queen Mother, but she didn't want the Duke Zheng's Mansion to be destroyed because of her.

Concubine Liu also heard about this.

"What? Madam Qin is actually the third daughter of the Meng family? How is this possible?"

If Lady Qin is the third daughter of the Meng family, why has this matter only been exposed now? Someone must have spread the rumor deliberately.

If the wife of Marquis Qin was the third daughter of the Meng family, then the Marquis Qin family would be won over by Prince Chen.

And there is Concubine Meng. I heard that Concubine Meng is pregnant with a boy. If Concubine Meng gives birth to a prince, her status will be even more extraordinary.

Concubine Liu had spread a lot of grievances to Prince Heng a few days ago, but the prince was going to Shu this time, which was a long journey. Concubine Liu also knew that Concubine Duan had sent palace maids to serve Prince Heng.

She could only endure all this now. When she got a seat in the throne, she would deal with the Duan family.

Now the Duan family is still respectful to her.

If the Duan family had known better, she could have spared their lives.

Concubine Liu thought about the gunpowder again. Her men tried many times but failed. All of them just looked like fireworks.

What ratio is needed to make powerful explosives?

She was extremely upset.

Concubine Liu thought of Yun Zhao again. If Yun Zhao was really like her, would he also know this? However, she had been sending people to investigate Yun Zhao, but she had not discovered this matter.

Could it be that Yun Zhao is just smarter and not the same as her?

She also sent people to inquire about the Shenjiying of the Qinhou Prince. Those weapons were developed by Qin Chen's men. And Qin Chen also knew some people from the Mohist School.

If she could bring the Mo family under her command, it would be a great help to her.

If she could invent muskets and explosives, would she still be afraid of other princes?

She could just deal with all these people. By then, the world would belong to the prince and her.

Concubine Liu was very happy when she thought of the scene where she, the Empress, and Prince Heng sat together in the hall, with all the officials kneeling in front of her.

"Come here, continue to send people to find out the news of the Shenjiying. No matter how much it costs, you must bribe the craftsmen and find out what weapons they are developing recently."
