Rumbling footsteps could be heard in Yong 'an Palace. Under Meng Qian's orders, the soldiers of the Western Liang Army held their sabers in their hands and lined up neatly. They stepped on the bluestone and walked out of the palace in a majestic manner!
Of course, there was also the current emperor!
He had been forcefully carried out by two soldiers of the Western Liang Army and would be sent back to the emperor's North Palace!
The door of the main hall let out a heavy muffled sound as it was closed. The entire Yong An Palace instantly became deathly silent!
Empress Dowager He's red lips parted slightly as her eyes flashed with disbelief. She looked at everything with a stunned expression!
Only the two of them were left in the entire hall!
The atmosphere instantly changed. There was no sound around them. Empress Dowager He could even hear her heart beating violently!
Meng Qian had been looking at Empress Dowager He with a calm gaze from the beginning to the end. She was the daughter of a butcher and her real name was Ho Lin!
With her beautiful appearance, she entered the palace and quickly gained the favor of the emperor. She gave birth to her eldest son, Liu Bian, and was conferred the title of empress!
She could be considered a very legendary woman. Moreover, she was able to have the last laugh in the internal strife of the harem. She was definitely a very smart woman!
She planned to rope Meng Qian in to protect the lives of her mother and son, as well as Liu Bian's throne. Her plan was good, but all of this came with a price!
Only Meng Qian and Ho Lin were left in the hall. The atmosphere was very unusual. Moreover, being stared at by Meng Qian, Ho Lin's face also turned slightly red!
He did not dare to look Meng Qian in the eye. His body tensed up and his hands grabbed onto the carriage uneasily.
"What does the Empress Dowager want to say to me?" Meng Qian said in an indifferent voice, his gaze constantly sizing Ho Lin up.
At this moment, she was wearing a phoenix robe. Her slightly charming figure emitted a mature charm, which had a fatal temptation to men!
Being sized up by Meng Qian like this, Ho Lin's heart tightened. With a forced expression, she said,"General Meng, it's all thanks to your timely arrival today. Otherwise, our mother and son would have died!”
As she said that, her eyes turned red and she started crying, looking like she had been wronged and was afraid!
Meng Qian smiled faintly in his heart. Was he trying to gain his sympathy?
However, after all these years of fighting, Meng Qian's heart had long become as hard as iron. Sympathy was the most laughable thing on the battlefield!
Ho Lin's widow and son might be very pitiful, but they were definitely not worthy of sympathy!
When Meng Qian did things, he needed to see benefits and returns! He would not be overflowing with sympathy!
"This is what I should do!" Meng Qian said indifferently with an unmoved expression.
Ho Lin's heart finally panicked, her fair and tender face revealing anxiety! She knew that Meng Qian was not so easy to rope in!
However, if she wanted to survive and maintain Liu Bian's position, she needed Meng Qian's support. She had eighty thousand elite troops in Luoyang, so Dong Zhuo couldn't oppose Meng Qian's opinion!
Taking a deep breath and forcing herself to calm down, Ho Lin's expression returned to normal as she said softly: "Then this widow will be straightforward. Dong Zhuo wants to cripple Tian Zi and poison us mother and son!”
"General Meng is the Great Han's Western Conquering General and has received the Emperor's favor. BenGong hopes that General Meng can stop Dong Zhuo from doing anything! Protect Tian Zi, protect this widow!"
After Ho Lin finished speaking, she stared intently at Meng Qian's determined face, observing every single expression on his face!
She hoped that Meng Qian was a loyal subject of the Great Han Dynasty and that he would agree to her request!
However, she was disappointed. Meng Qian smiled!
He shook his head lightly and smiled indifferently.""The prime minister is now in charge of the government and assisting the emperor! I can't stop the Prime Minister from doing whatever he wants!”
Meng Qian would stop Dong Zhuo. He would not sit by and watch Dong Zhuo depose the emperor. That would not be good for the Western Liang Army, nor would it be good for Meng Qian!
However, Empress Dowager He didn't know what Meng Qian was thinking. She thought that Meng Qian had the ability to stop Dong Zhuo, but he was wavering. He hadn't considered whether he should stop Dong Zhuo or not!
Therefore, she had to rope Meng Qian in today!
Ho Lin continued to think and said,"As long as General Meng can keep the throne of the Son of Heaven, he will be the Great General of Great Han!”
She had offered the position of Great General as a condition for Meng Qian's support!
Meng Qian's expression once again regained its calmness. His pair of terrifying eyes stared straight at Ho Lin as he gently shook his head and said,"The Great Han is still the Great Han, but the Empress Dowager is no longer the Empress Dowager!”
After saying that, he directly walked forward, not caring about the position of Great General that Ho Lin had mentioned at all!
What right did she have to confer the title of Great General?
In the past, it was basically impossible for Meng Qian to become a general. This position was prepared for his relatives!
But now, the Western Liang army had entered Luoyang, and Dong Zhuo had become the prime minister, controlling the government. The position of Great General was not difficult for Meng Qian!
In order to appease Meng Qian, Dong Zhuo had to give this position to Meng Qian!
Therefore, Meng Qian didn't believe Ho Lin's promise!
Meng Qian once again refused. Ho Lin's face instantly turned pale. If she couldn't get Meng Qian's support, she and Liu Bian would die in Dong Zhuo's hands!
However, she had already brought out the Great General and Meng Qian was still unmoved. What else could she do?
Slowly, Ho Lin's face flashed with endless panic. Her body tensed up because she discovered that Meng Qian was actually walking towards her!
As they got closer and closer to her, Ho Lin's heart was filled with panic. She stood up from the carriage, wanting to leave this place, but in a soft voice, she berated,"Meng Qian, what do you want to do?"
However, just as she stood up and took a few steps, she felt her arm being grabbed. With a wave of dizziness, she was pulled into Meng Qian's arms!
Looking at the determined face in front of her, a strong masculine aura assaulted her, Ho Lin's entire body went limp!
"Meng Qian, do you know what you are doing?”Ho Lin said in panic. Her body struggled weakly, but she couldn't move at all!
Looking at the pale face in front of him, even though she was no longer young, she still exuded a charming charm, which was fatal to men!
Most importantly, she was the empress dowager! The empress of the previous emperor!
Meng Qian tightly hugged Ho Lin, his large palm pinching her chin as he softly said,"I know what I'm doing!”
"If you want to protect your son's life, the position of Great General is not enough. You have to add yourself!”
Hearing Meng Qian's unbridled words, Ho Lin's jaw, which was being held, opened wide, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief!
Meng Qian's appetite was actually so big. A general was not enough, and he even wanted her, the empress dowager!!
