Joy of Life: I dressed as a woman and became the Queen of Northern Qi!

Chapter 266 Chen Luo’s plan shocked Uesugi Tiger!

"I hope Queen member Sean will show his patriotism!!"

Sean's voice echoed in the Pepper Room, and the firmness in it was clearly audible.

The kneeling posture on the ground has never changed from beginning to end!

Seeing this, Uesugi Tora, who was standing by, hesitated for a moment, then kowtowed and knelt as well!

Although no words were said, the meaning was already very clear!
He's vouching for Sean!
Assure Chen Luo that Sean will not betray Northern Qi and will be absolutely loyal!

Although he knew it was wrong to do so, Sean was his godfather!

Not only did she raise him, but she also taught him!
He couldn't just stand there and do nothing, or he would feel guilty!

"Mr. Xiao really impressed me!"

"If everyone in Northern Qi had such a strong desire to serve the country like Mr. Xiao, then why would we worry about Northern Qi not prospering?"

"Since Mr. Xiao has such aspirations, I should not bury it. When His Majesty comes back in the evening, I will talk to His Majesty about this matter!"

"Mr. Xiao and General Uesugi Tiger should go back and wait for news. I believe His Majesty will make the decision!"

After saying this, Chen Luo turned and walked to the window and continued to fiddle with the camellia on the windowsill.

After the order to leave was issued, Uesugi Tora and Sean did not dare to stay long, and hurriedly thanked the master and left the Pepper Room.

Although they did not get an accurate answer, they had no other choice.

Staying here any longer would only make Chen Luo feel bored, which would be counterproductive!

The two of them were silent all the way until they walked out of the palace and sat in the carriage they had been waiting for for a long time. Only then did Sean frown and look at Shanhu expressionlessly.

"Do you understand what the Queen means?"

Uesugi Tora, who was still worried about the final result, was stunned. He looked at Sean in confusion, and when he saw that he was not joking, he frowned and fell into deep thought.

But after thinking for a long time, he still didn't understand Sean's problem.

Just now in the Pepper Palace, he could understand the meaning behind Chen Luo's actions, such as the initial show of power, the subsequent testing, and the intimidation of asking them to wait for the result.

But he really couldn't think of the answer to the question Sean asked.

Did Chen Luo say anything just now? Or did he hint at something?

Seeing that Shangshanhu did not respond for a long time, Xiao En was not angry, but just frowned and said: "The Queen just said that she would discuss it with His Majesty, and His Majesty will make the decision!"

"The Queen did not attend court today, and the ministers in the court began to speculate that the Queen and His Majesty are not on good terms. His Majesty is angry that the Queen controls the government, and is even discussing which side to take!"

"Now do you think these two things are related?"

Your Majesty and the Queen are not on good terms?

Discuss it with Your Majesty and let Your Majesty decide?

Uesugi Tora frowned, these two sentences echoing in his mind.

The carriage fell into silence for a moment, with only the hawking sounds coming from both sides of the street outside and the discussions of the people.

He didn't say anything, and Sean didn't say anything either, just looked at him quietly.

After a long while, Shangshanhu's eyes widened and he looked back at Xiao En in shock. After receiving an affirmative nod, the shock in his eyes became even more intense. "The Queen is making a plan to guide those weak-minded ministers to take sides, and then completely eliminate them?"

"But what does this have to do with us? Is the Queen reminding us not to take sides?"

Since Chen Luo entered the palace as queen, she has been involved in state affairs until she went to Qing Kingdom and stopped attending court.

However, the re-employed Jinyiwei launched a massive purge of court officials. By now, almost the entire Northern Qi court had been purged!
Only a handful of officials from the six ministries had not been purged, and even many princes were targeted by the Embroidered Uniform Guards and were completely eliminated!

Although Chen Luo is no longer in Northern Qi, the government of Northern Qi is still controlled by Chen Luo!

Now he has absolute power, his reputation and influence have reached the peak, and he is even preparing to reform!

The two people who withdrew were directly appointed as the Left Prime Minister and the Right Prime Minister, and the entire court was in Chen Luo's hands!

To put it bluntly, if Chen Luo wants to rebel, it may only take him a word!
The order to rebellion was issued in the morning, Zhan Doudou abdicated at noon, and the coronation ceremony was held in the evening!

Now Zhan Doudou is just a mascot. He only has the title of emperor but does not have much power. He can mobilize people only with Chen Luo's tacit consent!

But today Chen Luo suddenly did not attend the court, and some ministers immediately began to speculate that the emperor and the queen were not in harmony. This was not normal at all!
What a coincidence, and what a fast time!

It is obvious that there are secret agents of the Imperial Guard all over the capital city, even in the dry toilets on the roadside, but this news still spread. This is obviously abnormal!
It is obvious that someone deliberately leaked the news and was even trying to guide the ministers to take sides!

The prerequisite for achieving this step is that the Jinyiwei will not take action!

The only one who could make the Jinyiwei do this was Queen Chen Luo, not even Zhan Doudou!

Sean looked at him with satisfaction and smiled with satisfaction, which was rare for him: "Not bad, at least you have learned some basics, so your study was not in vain!"

After hearing this, Uesugi Tora's expression changed again, not with anger, but with shock!

Deep shock!
He knew that Sean was not a boastful person. Since Sean said that what he saw was just the surface, it meant that there were deeper things he had not seen!

This little bit of fur is so shocking, what about the deeper plot...
"The Prime Minister Shang and the Prime Minister Wang are both the Queen's men, and they were brought in to preside over the reform!"

"Reform is difficult, and one of the biggest obstacles is the ministers in the court, especially since this reform is intended to consolidate power and make the emperor supreme!"

"These newly promoted ministers have just experienced the feeling of holding great power. How could they easily give up their power?"

"So these ministers will definitely try their best to stop the reform, but due to the power of the Queen, they dare not do anything in public, so they can only trip her up in secret!"

"The Empress did not attend the court and deliberately led them to take sides, just to give them the illusion that the Emperor and the Empress were not on good terms!"

"A fly won't bite an egg without cracks. If you want to stop the reform, the best way is to separate the empress and the emperor, one of whom supports the reform and the other does not!"

"Even if your Majesty is weak and can't deny the reform with one word, you can still delay the process. After a long time, the Queen will give up the reform!"

"To ask them to take sides now is to lure them into revealing their weaknesses, and then we will root them out completely to shock them and make the reform go more smoothly!"

After hearing Sean's explanation, Uesugi Tora's breathing stopped, and all the things he couldn't understand were explained.

But then, new questions came to my mind.

He hesitated and said, "What the Queen said to us..."

He could understand guiding the ministers to take sides and clearing obstacles for the reform.

But why did he tell them those words just now in the Pepper Palace?
There must be a reason for this, right?
Are you afraid that he will take sides, so you go to remind him specifically?
But he won't take sides, and he supports the reform!
"That's why I said you only saw the surface!"
