After being struck by lightning and being in the world of women

While Xiao Jin was thinking about getting His Majesty to change his mind, Emperor Showa in the Xuanzheng Hall was also considering the matter.

At the beginning, Emperor Showa was very angry that Zhong Ruhuang was so stupid to be framed, especially when he knew that she had slept with his reserve man, he became even angrier.

But after returning to the Xuanzheng Hall and calming down, Emperor Showa was no longer so angry.

She knew her eight existing princesses very well. The other princesses were all very smart, except the fifth one, who was a blockhead. She was mediocre in literature and mediocre in martial arts. She was just an honest child.

Emperor Showa was also a princess, so he understood the intrigues and schemes in the harem too well.

The fifth princess has no prominent paternal family, her biological father died in childbirth, and she has no power around her. She is definitely the easiest princess to frame.

Emperor Showa also knew that several princesses knew about his intention to send the princesses to guard Chaotian Pass.

The eldest and the fourth were both born to the white moonlight in her heart, Emperor Zhaoxian. She was absolutely reluctant to give them up and could only choose from other adult imperial daughters.

Originally, she chose the sixth princess, Zhong Qihuang.

She chose the Sixth Princess for three reasons.

The first point is that she is the daughter of the imperial concubine Xiao Jin, and her status is noble enough.

The second point is that she is the granddaughter of Grand Tutor Jin, the younger sister of the eldest and fourth princesses, and also their full cousins.

The third point is that her aunt was the Minister of War.

If the Sixth Princess was guarding Chaotian Pass, Grand Tutor Jin and the others would certainly help Zhong Qihuang with all their strength and would not withhold food or anything like that.

The second and third princesses are also suitable, and they have powerful paternal clans to help them, but the most suitable one is the sixth princess.

But now...

Emperor Showa frowned. She sat on the throne and saw Zhong Ruhuang kneeling outside the Xuanzheng Hall through the window inlaid with transparent colored glaze.

"Hou Songlin, what do you think of my fifth princess?"

Hou Songlin was Emperor Showa's personal eunuch and also the chief eunuch, also known as Hou Dajian. He grew up with Emperor Showa and was her most loyal servant.

Hou Songlin is 45 years old this year, three years older than Emperor Showa, and his hair is all gray.

At her age, she is already an old person in such a world.

When Hou Songlin heard Emperor Zhaohe's question, he also looked up at Zhong Ruhuang outside the window.

"Her Highness the Fifth Princess is a person with a sincere heart."

In Hou Songlin's opinion, the fifth princess was just an ordinary person with no talent. Her only advantage was that she was good-looking, having inherited the good looks of His Majesty.

Emperor Showa snorted and laughed, "Sincere? This is an honest man."

I have to say that Zhong Ruhuang is quite good at disguising herself. Everyone thinks she is an honest person, an ordinary honest person.

Hou Songlin noticed that Emperor Zhaohe was in a good mood at the moment, so he added: "It's good to be an honest person."

In Hou Songlin's opinion, as long as the fifth princess does not have the intention of competing for the throne, she can live to old age in peace.

No matter which sister comes to the throne, they should be kind to the obedient Fifth Princess. They won't kill all their sisters, right?

Well, Emperor Showa was that ruthless person. After she came to power, she killed all her sisters, including their children.

Emperor Showa glanced again at Zhong Ruhuang who was kneeling outside the window with a deep gaze.

"Hou Songlin, the Fifth Princess doesn't need to kneel anymore. Let her go back."

What's the point of kneeling?

She should think about how to solve the Chaotian Pass issue.

Chaotian Pass is not an ordinary place, but the ancient capital of the previous dynasty and also a famous place that military strategists must capture.

If it weren't for the founding empress of the Qinglan Dynasty who was quick to seize Chaotian Pass, Chaotian Pass would probably have been in the hands of the other two countries.

That’s right, this world doesn’t just have the Qinglan Dynasty, but three kingdoms coexisting.

In addition to the Qinglan Dynasty, there are also the Pingning Dynasty and the Shengyun Dynasty.

At the end of the previous dynasty, the empress was incompetent and obsessed with male beauty. She built a large palace for cultivation, which cost the people a lot of money and labor, and made their lives miserable. This eventually led to countless peasant uprisings. The war burned for decades, and eventually formed a situation of three kingdoms coexisting.

The founding emperor of the Qinglan Dynasty was a far-sighted man who seized the most territory. He also took the capital of the previous dynasty, renamed it Chaotian Pass, moved the capital to another place, and named it Chaotian City, so that future generations would remember that Chaotian Pass must not be lost.

Chaotian Pass connects the Pingning Dynasty and the Shengyun Dynasty. It is a very important military pass that guards the safety of dozens of cities.

If General Sun, who was guarding Chaotian Pass, had not passed away and there was no suitable candidate in the court, Emperor Showa would not have sent his princess to go.

You know, Chaotian Pass has always been coveted by the Pingning Dynasty and the Shengyun Dynasty. Large-scale wars occur every year and the probability of death is very high.

Once she sends her own princess, she will most likely lose her.

However, Emperor Showa really had no suitable person to send.

It’s not that there is no one, but it’s not suitable.

Her options for successors have always been the eldest princess and the fourth princess. The other princesses were not even within her consideration, and they could not increase their power.

Emperor Showa thought of this and sighed in his heart.
