Jiang Fenghua told Xie Shang what she knew and asked directly, "What is the emperor going to do now?"

Xie Shang frowned, "I only sent a secret letter to Jiang Zhiqin to let him do it secretly. Even Peng Fei didn't know about it until later. How could he tell his nephew about such an important matter?"

Jiang Fenghua's eyes were full of openness as he analyzed seriously, "It makes sense. The uncle is a general and wants to use his military merits to promote his own people. General Peng may not have expected that his nephew was too eager for success. Now I just hope that Concubine Song Shu's brother only told Concubine Song Shu about this, and even General Peng will be alert to control his nephew. The worst result is that the matter has been leaked. Is the emperor still going to continue this move?"

Xie Shang was attracted by Jiang Fenghua's true nature. He stared at her face with burning eyes. Now he finally understood why he felt that he could never see through her. This was because in the past three years she had deliberately concealed all her brilliance, pretending to be coquettish and affectionate with him every day, talking in a soft voice. Now she was unwilling to pretend anymore, and even her clothes and makeup had become casual.

"Your Majesty." Jiang Jinyan saw the emperor staring at his sister's face in a daze. He felt embarrassed for the emperor. He had just returned to the palace and heard that the emperor had canonized another beauty as a concubine. At that time, he felt mixed emotions. Now he was looking at Ruan Ruan obsessively. What did he mean?

Xie Shang looked away awkwardly and said in a deep voice, "The arrow is on the string, there is no reason not to shoot it."

Xie Shang's handling of the situation was also within Jiang Fenghua's expectations. Now she had nothing to do. She blinked and said nothing. However, she no longer tried to dress herself up exquisitely. What did Xie Shang's eyes mean? She felt that he wanted to eat her.

She said quickly, "Since the emperor already knows about this, I will take my leave now."

She raised her eyebrows at Jiang Jinyan and gave him an ambiguous smile, meaning that he should come to her when he was done.

Jiang Jinyan smiled, indicating that he understood.

Xie Shang stared at the brother and sister in front of him, feeling a little uncomfortable. Jiang Fenghua is obviously my woman, but why does she feel so "heartless" now?

His eyes turned cold again, and he said in a deep voice, "Stop."

Jiang Fenghua said, "The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics."

"Then why did you rush here just now?" Xie Shang deliberately said: "The Queen has already interfered in state affairs. She is not the little girl in Tutor Jiang's mansion who can only pretend to be good at reading. Don't use the excuse that the harem is not allowed to interfere in state affairs to fool me." She wants to withdraw after taking advantage of me. Will I be willing to suffer such a loss?

"I'm just worried about my fourth brother. He's still at the border." Jiang Fenghua found an excuse.

Xie Shang directly exposed, "With Jiang Zhiqin's intelligence, he will be safe even if he is defeated. Didn't you send people to protect him secretly a long time ago?" Otherwise, where did Jiang Zhiqin get all those military achievements?

Jiang Fenghua paused. It turned out that he had no idea that Tan Wanqing had brought their people to protect his fourth brother.

She said, "I'm wondering who will be responsible for the safety of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the Great Zhou Dynasty. If the information is leaked to the other side, the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty will suffer."

Xie Shang was stunned. She said "we" and also said that she didn't like me. He didn't like why she cared about the life and death of the Xie family. She hated Su Tingwan, and she should hate me too. Why didn't she seek revenge on me? He naturally kept these words in his heart.

He only said in a deep voice: "Queen, is there any way to continue my plan? It is impossible to retreat."

"I know that the emperor will definitely fight this battle and he will never retreat." Jiang Fenghua looked determined.

Xie Shang stared at her face again, "How do you know that I will fight? Are you so sure that I will not retreat? Since the truth has been revealed, stopping the war is the best option. I can make new plans before taking action."

Jiang Fenghua also stared at Xie Shang's face. Now he felt that he was a bit disgusting, and the more he looked at him, the more disgusted he became.

Jiang Jinyan also felt that stopping the plan was the best option. Besides, the ministers did not know that the emperor was going to attack the Hu tribe to recover the northern border. It was too risky to entrust such an important matter to Jiang Zhiqin, who had no combat experience.

Jiang Fenghua said in a deep voice, "Those who kill my people, massacre my cities, and invade my Great Zhou will be punished no matter how far away they are. The emperor is determined to destroy the Hu people. Now everything is ready, except for the east wind. The emperor has borrowed the east wind, so it is impossible for us not to take action..." She has already laid her cards on Xie Shang. In the next ten years, Xie Shang will definitely recover the northern frontier.

Xie Shang felt a surge of emotions when he heard this. He walked up to Jiang Fenghua, even excited, "How do you know these words?"

Jiang Fenghua said, "The emperor told me, you forgot, it was the last time the late emperor scolded you, you ran to me as if you were in pain, you told me that you killed the prince of the Hu tribe, and you also talked about your determination to destroy the Hu tribe..."

A trace of disappointment flashed in Xie Shang's eyes. He had indeed said the same thing to Jiang Fenghua, and she also said that she had never entered the palace when she was a child.

He stared at Jiang Fenghua, with an urgent expectation in his heart. He hoped that this extremely smart woman in front of him was the one. He said in a deep voice, "Did you enter the palace thirteen years ago and saw a young man talking to her?"

"No, I never entered the palace when I was a child. I have already told the emperor." Jiang Fenghua hurriedly denied what Xie Shang meant.

Xie Shang stared into her eyes and said in a cold voice, "Jiang Fenghua, do you dare to swear that every word you said to me is true? I swear on your Jiang family's Manchu clan." She cares about the Jiang family the most.

Jiang Fenghua laughed again, "I have told too many lies. I know I have let down Your Majesty and have committed a grave sin. Now I swear that I will be struck by lightning. Your Majesty, I just want to be an honest person now. Can you please not make me swear on my family members?"

Xie Shang's lips twitched when he saw her smiling face.

Before Xie Shang could react, Jiang Fenghua slipped away without a trace of reluctance.

When Xie Shang saw her running away, he knew that she was hiding something.

Jiang Jinyan was also confused. What happened between Ruan Ruan and the emperor? What happened in the uterus during the days he was away?

Jiang Jinyan was seen standing there awkwardly, not knowing whether to leave or not.

Xie Shang suddenly sat back in his seat and said in a deep voice, "I'll leave this matter to you. Ride as fast as you can to the border and find out who else the eldest nephew of the Peng Fei family has said this to. Everything will proceed as planned. This time, I am determined to defeat the Hu tribe."

Jiang Jinyan had just returned from outside and was about to leave the capital again. Before leaving, he said, "Nothing happened between Ruan Ruan and His Majesty, right?"

"What do you think?" Xie Shang asked him.

Jiang Jinyan was stunned and couldn't say anything.

Xie Shang said directly, "Your sister has already admitted that she doesn't like me. She has been using me to deal with the Su family. She married me just to use me because she only wants to get my position as queen."
