After the death of the previous emperor, the Empress Dowager became arrogant

It's not that I hate it, it's just that it's hard to let it go. After all, this is the path I chose, and I can't blame anyone else.

How have things been going for you these years?

Thank you for your concern. Except that I don’t have the rich and comfortable life as before, everything else is fine.

That's good. Now that you've passed, you don't have to think about anything else. Just stay here and work hard. We are short of staff right now, so you come back at the right time.

He retreated in response and slowly closed the door, leaving only two people in the room.

I didn't understand why he did this, so I had to ask.

Since you suspect that her purpose for coming back this time is not pure, why don't you deal with her directly to prevent future troubles?

At least for now, she is more useful alive than dead.

Got it. I'll do it right away.

The weather in July and August is like being trapped in a cage, humid and hot. Everyone is extremely anxious and restless. Even this person who usually lives a lazy life feels uneasy.

Not only has the workload increased several times, but there are also more unfamiliar faces coming and going than usual, and sometimes I am nowhere to be seen for whole days.

In comparison, it seems out of place with its surroundings.

She packed her things and prepared to go home as usual. As soon as she walked out of the hospital, she ran into the person who had been on a mission outside.

When I saw her coming out, I subconsciously stepped forward and tried to block her sight.

She couldn't help but shake her head in amusement. Over the past six months or so, she had gotten used to everyone avoiding her when doing anything.

She had looked for him long before she came back, and she also knew about Ye's plan.

So she resolutely decided to return to this place of right and wrong to seek a way to survive, for herself and for those she cared about.

Suddenly, a wave of heat hit me in the face, bringing with it a hint of moisture. I raised my hand and fanned myself symbolically a few times, muttering something.

Less than a month later, they were notified that they would have to move to a new location a few alleys away, not too far from their current location.

The others have remained basically unchanged.

Take this document and notify her that a new group of people have joined today and ask her to handle it.

This is my own requirement, to make a living, and this name is less likely to cause their alienation and disgust.

She had only been working for a few months, but she had already received such orders no less than a hundred times.

Basically every two or three days there would be a group of people saying they were joining voluntarily, either to work for them or to avoid disaster.

Some people's reasons are even simpler and more direct. They think that it doesn't matter where you work, they just want to make a living.

The light hurt her eyes and she turned her head away quickly.

This scene suddenly brought back the most helpless days buried deep in my heart.

A feeling of powerlessness suddenly came over me, and I subconsciously wanted to do something.

Now that we have an idea, the next thing to think about is how to implement it.

She thought of some of the things that man had told her before she came.

If successful, she will hide herself and will never reveal her identity unless necessary.

Since she couldn't directly participate and arouse suspicion, she could only do it from the side and let them hand the loophole to her themselves.

As long as they took the initiative to bring it up, she would have a way to stay out of it while still being able to carry out the plan.

It was this decision that allowed us to take advantage of the situation and move closer to the center step by step.

Of course, these are all for later.

Hello, is your brother there?

Yes, Miss. He is not at home today. Do you have something to talk to him about?

I originally wanted to tell him something, but since he's not here, forget it. I'll tell him next time when I have time. Thank you for your help.

I also inquired about the information from various other places, including those who often went out, and found that almost half of them were not at work.

Not only them, but everyone else is away, so today seems particularly quiet.

After she finished tidying up her hands, someone joked that he wanted to ask her out to relax.

These phenomena did not exist in the past. Everyone worked hard all day long, wishing they could split themselves into several parts to use.

It’s good enough to have some free time to drink some water, how can I dare to hope to have time to go out and play?

After looking at the time, it was still early, so he nodded in agreement.

It was today indeed.

Muttering, she learned through special channels a few days ago that there would be an important meeting on rectification today.

Since she couldn't get involved anyway, she might as well take this opportunity to do other things.

The group arrived at a house and saw a group of well-dressed nobles at the door, so they hurried over to greet them.

Call out the one who sings well, I want to listen to the song!

The man who was the leader among them was ruthless.

It is said that he committed a crime and was afraid of being held accountable, so he came here to seek asylum and to show his sincerity.

I have learned about this person in detail. He is arrogant and has a hot temper.

Although he is timid, he is still loyal to those who have helped him or are under his protection, as long as they have not offended him.

In particular, this guy once secretly came out to drink and revealed a lot of information when he was drunk, but no big deal was made.

It was only after he was scolded that he was able to live in peace for a while.

She knew that she could no longer hold back.

I learned that he has recently fallen in love with this woman again.

It’s just that this woman’s identity is somewhat unusual, so she lured them here.

As long as she asks for it, she will have the opportunity to make things bigger. As long as this matter is told to others, everything else will fall into place.

At work, he has a flexible personality and is easy to control, so he became the first choice to implement the first step of the plan.

I'm really sorry, the lady is not here today. How about you listen to someone else singing, that's not bad either?

Go away! I just want to hear her sing!

Seeing that this customer was difficult to deal with, he took the opportunity to go look for him.

He was also a man with some discerning eyes. When he saw the people in front of him, he felt that they were not easy to deal with just by looking at their aura.

For fear of getting into trouble, I had to persuade him and even give him some good wine before he settled down.

Feeling unhappy, he took a few gulps of wine. His face was already a little red and he felt dizzy. He cursed everyone he met.

Especially the one sitting next to him was scolded by him. These two people had been enemies before coming here, and they continued to quarrel all day long after coming here.

Not wanting to argue with him in public, I just sat there and pretended I didn't hear him, letting him go crazy.

Seeing that the time had come, he stood up and said he had to go out for something. With a gloomy look on his face, he saw that she was about to leave, and followed her out.

Just as I reached the stairs, a beautiful woman walked out of a room, and there was a man inside who was calling out repeatedly.

Ignoring him, I tried to walk past him.

But at this moment, he suddenly turned his head to look at the woman, so he recognized her.

Didn’t they just say that she wasn’t here today? Then who is this?

So all the scolding I received from that guy just now was in vain?

No, I can't stand this!

She is not as gentle as her name suggests. Instead, she has the same hot temper as my husband, otherwise I wouldn't have quarreled with him for so many years.

She immediately turned around and went back to ask for an explanation. I had no choice but to follow her. When I got to the table, I found that she was still scolding me.

The corners of her mouth twitched. Hasn't this man scolded her enough?

I'm afraid this is the only way to deal with this kind of talk.

My dear, I was holding my breath and not arguing with you just now because I was afraid of losing face!

You are so good, why are you angry with us when you can't find that woman? If you have the guts, go find her, you coward!

If I could find it, I would have gone to find it long ago. Why are you pointing at me and scolding me?

Hey! I have a bad temper! Who is scolding who? Let them be the judge!

Your little lover is clearly there, yelling at you, but you're too cowardly to argue with them, and instead you take it out on us!

Tsk, I finally found some time to play, but it was all ruined by a useless person like you. What a bummer!

Really here?

When he heard the news, he immediately sobered up a lot. Without caring about anything else, he turned around and looked at the people who had gone out with him.

I had no choice but to nod, confirming that what she had just said was true.

Since arriving, I have become more and more arrogant because of the attention from my superiors and the flattery from others.

He always acts like a wealthy man wherever he goes. He thinks that there is nothing he cannot get when it comes to beauty and money, except for ability.

Today was the first time he was teased like this. He picked up the wine and walked upstairs aggressively. A few people were afraid that he would cause trouble, so they quickly followed him.

They knocked on the doors of each room looking for someone. By the time they caught up with him, they had already knocked on most of the rooms in the corridor, which were filled with insults.

Everyone's attention was drawn to that room. He avoided everyone and slowly approached the door he had just come out of. He carefully scanned the crack of the open door once or twice. After making sure that there was no problem, he turned around and waved.
