A dream ends life

The royal family members who were summoned by the Empress Dowager to discuss matters happened to come out.

The two people outside the palace gate hugged each other, behaving intimately and familiarly, as if such behavior was very common.

When they saw the two people clearly, everyone's faces became interesting.

"Shameless, shameless!"

"These two dared to be so presumptuous in broad daylight. You can imagine how lewd and shameless they are behind the scenes. It's a great shame!"

The old clan members were so angry that they were shaking and cursing at the two men.

Wu Peiyi was so frightened that she trembled and hugged Yu Luohan even tighter.

Yu Luohan originally wanted to break free from her, but he didn't expect that he couldn't get rid of her. The two of them were like conjoined twins.

A middle-aged man in a dragon robe walked out with a slightly gloomy face.

"This is how the regent assists the new emperor. It really opens our eyes. No wonder the young emperor disrespects his elders and acts recklessly. He has a lewd mother and a regent who defiles the harem. This is simply a disgrace to our royal family!"

"Yes, these two people are so blatant, insulting our royal family and confusing our bloodline, their crimes should be executed!"

Yu Luohan narrowed his eyes and looked at these Xiao royal family members dangerously.

Among these people, there are those who gloat over his misfortune, those who have bad intentions, and even those who can't wait to put the blame on him.

It seems that the Queen Mother doesn't do them any favors.

"What is the crime for entering the palace without being summoned?"

The clan members said disdainfully: "Who said we were not summoned to the palace? We entered the palace to make suggestions according to the order of the Empress Dowager. But you, as the regent, did not assist the new emperor and left the capital without permission. Are you planning a rebellion?"

Yu Luohan was unmoved, "I have my reasons for leaving the capital, I don't need you to explain, you don't deserve it!"

The clan members were enraged by his arrogant words: "This bastard is so arrogant! Come, take him down!"

The guards guarding the palace gate drew the swords at their waists and were about to charge forward.

Yu Luohan comforted Wu Peiyi with one hand and held the sword with the other, and killed the two guards in a few strokes.

The faces of all the clan members became wonderful.

"Rebellion, rebellion, Yu Luohan is going to force the emperor to abdicate."

Yu Luohan looked at the man who was shouting. He stabbed him with a sword and cut his neck.

There was chaos at the palace gate.

The Imperial Guards rushed over here. The clan members looked at the man lying in a pool of blood and still struggling unwillingly, and they felt extremely hateful.

Yu Luohan is such a jerk. Not only did he collude with that bitch Wu Peiyi, he also dared to kill clan members. They will never give up until he is killed on the spot today!

The movement at the palace gate was soon known to the Empress Dowager in the harem.

Concubine Min was eager to try: "Mother, I didn't expect it to be so smooth. God is helping us. My Cheng'er is really destined by heaven."

The empress dowager's noble and elegant face resembled Concubine Min to some extent, but Concubine Min was young after all, and she didn't have her calmness and expressionlessness. Instead, she had a domineering look.

"This is indeed a good opportunity. We must nail Yu Luohan and the Wu family girl to the pillar of shame and prevent them from turning over."

Concubine Min was eager to try, "Yes, as long as the affair between these two is proven, Cheng'er will be the legitimate crown prince, and Xiao Jinchen must be a bastard!"

The Empress Dowager glanced at her with disdain in her eyes. This idiot only had a nice appearance but no brains. If she had been smarter, she would not have allowed the mother and son of the Wu family to sit in high positions.

The women who are also her sons are only jealous and fight for men. Not only are they slow to realize political affairs, but they can only grab the favor of men, and they don't take the opportunity to grab some real power.

She was her biological aunt and had advantages that others didn't have, but she ruined the good hand she had.

"Whether Xiao Jinchen is a bastard or not is not something you can question. This is a matter of royal dignity. He can step down, but he must not insult the royal dignity. Watch your mouth!"

If you want Xiao Jinchen to step down, what happened today is enough.

In other words, you can make up obscene rumors, but you cannot have substantial evidence.

Concubine Min strongly disagreed. In her opinion, since they had to take action, they had to beat Xiao Jinchen to death and not give him a chance to fight back.

He wanted to say something, but the Queen Mother gave him a stern look and he ran over, silenced.

"You'd better not act on your own. Don't forget that even if Xiao Jinchen cannot become the emperor, that position may not necessarily be taken by your Cheng'er."

Concubine Min was stunned: "Mother!"

"Cheng'er is your grandson."

The Queen Mother didn't take it seriously: "I have many grandchildren, not just Cheng'er."

Concubine Min felt a chill in her heart and dared not speak again.

"What about the palace gate?"

The Queen Mother thought for a while and smiled: "Let him be and see how far he can go."

Concubine Min hesitated and said, "Mother, if Yu Luohan entered the palace, wouldn't it be..."

"Wouldn't it be better if he entered the palace? The more noise he makes, the better it would be for us, idiot!"

The Queen Mother couldn't help herself and cursed.

Concubine Min was a little confused, but she knew that she couldn't say anything more, otherwise the consequences would be serious.

After the Queen Mother sent the person away, she rubbed her brows. This niece is just a hindrance. When will she make any progress?

Poisoning cannot kill Wu Peiyi, and sending assassins cannot completely eliminate the root of the problem, but will instead leave future troubles.

If she hadn't been secretly cleaning up the mess for her, there's no telling how outrageous she could have gotten.

Fortunately, her son does not look like her mother. The child she raised with her own hands will not let her down.

Zixia Villa

When Nanny Li saw Su Ci, she smiled with wrinkles all over her face.

"Miss Su, you are finally here. My lady has been talking about you for a few days. If you don't come, she will go out to look for you again."

Su Ci smiled and didn't take her words seriously.

For a shrewd person like Nanny Li, you just need to listen to her polite words and don't take them to heart.

"I just came back from a trip and came here to bother her. Is Madam all right?"

Madam Li smiled and said, "All right, all right. It's just that Miss misses you!"

After a few polite words, Nanny Li invited Su Ci to go inside. Only then did she notice that there was a handsome little monk behind Su Ci.

Nanny Li didn't think much about it and asked casually, "Where did Miss Su go? How did she become connected with Buddhism?"

Su Ci said: "There is no way, fate has come and it cannot be stopped."

When we arrived at the Empress Dowager's courtyard, she was drinking tea.

Seeing Su Ci and the little monk coming in from the door, he first glanced at them casually, then looked at them in shock.

To be precise, he was looking at the little monk behind Su Ci.

“This is, this is…”

Su Ci observed her expression carefully and was shocked.

The little monk couldn't be someone important. Judging from his appearance, he must be quite important.

The Empress Dowager looked at Su Ci and asked with a strange look, "What are you going to do?"

Su Ci raised an eyebrow. What did she mean by what she should do?

Isn't it you who should say something?

The Empress Dowager said, "I was wondering why that child never wanted to marry a concubine. It turns out that my son is already this old. Why didn't you say so earlier?"
