Favoring Concubines and Destroying Wife: Reborn, I Married to a Rich Man and Destroyed His Whole Fam

"In reply to the Imperial Grandmother, although there were some minor disturbances in the capital, they have all been handled..."

The Queen Mother looked at Qin Chen. At this moment, there was nothing covered on Qin Chen's face. He looked about 70% similar to the late Crown Prince.

"You guys go out first."

The Queen Mother spoke to Nanny Sun and the other servants.

"Yes."

Only the Empress Dowager, Qin Chen, Yun Zhao and Ding Ge'er were left in the room.

The Queen Mother held Ding'er in her arms and looked at Qin Chen and said.

"Chen'er, please sit down."

"Yes."

After Qin Chen sat down, the Queen Mother looked at Qin Chen and said in a serious tone.

"Tell the Imperial Grandmother that you want that position?"

Xiao Jingchen listened to the words of the Empress Dowager and said.

"Grandmother, I have been wanting revenge for so many years. The suffering I have endured over the years cannot be described in words. But I did not kill my uncle. Of course I want the throne, because it should have belonged to my father. It was my uncle who killed him."

Hearing Xiao Jingchen's words, the Empress Dowager's expression changed. With tears in her eyes, she looked at Qin Chen with some pain.

She knew what Chen'er said clearly in her heart. Because of this incident, she also hated the emperor and beat and scolded him. At first, she suspected that the emperor had joined forces with others to kill his eldest son.

But the emperor refused to admit it, and now Chen'er has exposed the matter.

"The Empress Dowager knows."

The Queen Mother nodded.

It's time for this throne to come to an end.

After waking up in the morning, the Queen Mother and Queen Zheng went to the court meeting.

"Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen Mother and Her Majesty the Empress."

The princes, royal brothers, cabinet ministers, and six ministers kneeling in front all looked haggard.

The other ministers looked much better.

"Get up."

"Thank you, Queen Mother."

Eunuch Hai stood nearby and spoke loudly.

"If you have anything to say, please step forward and report it."

A minister stood up.

"Reporting to the Empress Dowager and the Queen, the construction of the Star Picking Tower cost five to six million taels of silver. What should we do now? Please ask the Empress Dowager and the Queen to issue an order..."

When they heard about the Zhaixing Tower, the Empress Dowager and Queen Zheng both looked a little ugly.

"What do you think, my dear ministers?"

"Your Majesty, the Star-Picking Tower is a waste of money and labor. I agree that it should be demolished."

"Your Highness, I also agree to demolish the Zhaixing Tower."

Minister Gu came out.

"Reporting to the Queen Mother, since I became the Minister of Revenue, I have sent people to investigate the Zhaixing Tower and found that the accounts of the Zhaixing Tower are not right... I ask the Queen Mother to issue an order to carefully investigate the accounts of the Zhaixing Tower... Find out what is going on here, how many people have been corrupt and perverted the law... Severely punish these people..."

No one expected that at this time, Minister Gu would not support Prince Heng to ascend to the throne, nor would he support Prince Chen. Instead, he would report to the Empress Dowager and the Queen, asking her to check the accounts of Zhaixing Tower.

We must investigate corruption and severely punish these people.

For a moment, many people looked at Minister Gu. Some of them admired him very much, while others looked at him with displeasure.

"Empress Dowager, now that the Emperor has just passed away, there is a lot of work to be done. I suggest that you first appoint a crown prince and take care of the Emperor's funeral before doing anything else."

"I second the proposal."

"Your Highness, please appoint His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The country cannot be without a ruler for a day."

"I also second my opinion."
