The golden crow set in the west and the bright moon rose in the east. The Great Zhou Empress lay quietly in her bedroom, unable to fall asleep for a long time.
She put on a gorgeous robe and walked aimlessly in the quiet garden.
To be fair, she was indeed mean and unkind, treating Su Guan badly.
Although Su Guan had made great contributions, he had made countless enemies.
Moreover, if the merit was too great to be rewarded, what should he do?
Kill!
She had to pin the blame on Su Guan, or else she would have to bear the name of a tyrant.
"Zhen's throne is not without worries. There are still Imperial Father's younger brothers eyeing it covetously.”
"I have no choice but to cut off your sharp blade. However, I have already thought of burying you in the Imperial Mausoleum. This is a supreme grace.”
"Su Guan, without me, you would have died on that snowy night.”
Wu Mingyue's anger was hard to swallow. The trace of guilt she felt disappeared along with the news of the 3,000 heavy cavalry.
You could have done nothing and been a puppet in Chu, so why did you have to flatter Jiang Yanwan?
In any country, three thousand heavy cavalry that could be exchanged for a Marquis were given to the enemy of the Great Zhou so easily?
"Hehe, are you taking revenge on me? You don't have the right!”
Wu Mingyue's eyes were as sharp as knives as she shouted hysterically.
Not far away, the palace maids who followed were in fear and trepidation. It was rare to see the Emperor so furious, as if he had lost his mind.
They were inexperienced and didn't understand why they wanted to kill Young Master Su.
Without Young Master Su, how could there be the current Emperor?
Without Young Master Su's protection day and night, His Majesty would have been assassinated in the two years after he ascended the throne.
As a palace maid who served the Emperor, she was well aware of Young Master Su's contributions.
Of course, these rebellious words could only be thought about. Even if they were given ten thousand guts, they would not dare to say them.
Wu Mingyue looked up at the stars in the sky and slowly recovered from her uncontrollable emotions.
It was just 3,000 heavy cavalry. Under the circumstances where the gap between Chu and the Great Zhou was so large, how much trouble could they cause?
"But…"
"Zhen has already taught you once personally, but you are still repeating the same mistake. You are destined to be at the end of the road.”
Wu Mingyue sneered. Her smile was filled with mockery.
He would never be able to figure out the Emperor's Heart!
Taking out 3,000 heavy cavalry in such a grand manner would definitely arouse Jiang Yanwan's fear. After squeezing out all the value, he would mercilessly throw it away.
She firmly believed that all the emperors in the world were equally ruthless and decisive, especially Jiang Yanwan, who was known as the cold-blooded queen.
"Before you die, don't think of my good deeds.”Wu Mingyue was about to walk into the bedroom.
"Your Majesty, Gengjin fled to Luoyang overnight.”
Eunuch Yu walked out from the shadows of the garden. His voice was old.
……
Yin Yang Hall.
An old woman was crawling in the hall. Her face was covered in blood and her dress was covered in dust. It was obvious that she had experienced a long journey.
No, to be more precise, he was fleeing for his life!
If it weren't for his martial arts, he would have died at the border and escaped to the Fairy's Capital in exhaustion.
"Gengjin, what happened?"
Wu Mingyue stared at her expressionlessly, her eyes cold.
Gengjin was just a code name.
When her father was in power, he had set up a trap in Nine Regions, and many spies were hidden in various countries.
Only she and Eunuch Yu knew the name list.
"Your Majesty, our hidden sentries have been completely removed, and our strongholds have been destroyed.”
"Only this servant is unable to live."
Geng Jin's voice was trembling. Facing the storm-like sweep of the Chu Country, she was the only one who escaped from the hidden sentry.
One had to know that spies were spread across various industries. There were merchants, singers, and even boatmen and teahouse managers.
Within a day, they were all wiped out.
Seeing the Emperor's gloomy face, she was afraid of being executed. She said in a trembling voice,
"It's Su Guan!"
Hearing this name, Wu Mingyue felt dizzy. The anger that she had just suppressed burned again.
"Su Guan, do you really want to provoke me?" Her delicate eyes were completely cold.
Because the joy of obtaining Canglan City had disappeared today. Her mind was only filled with that handsome and gentle man.
A servant who was once loyal to her actually dared to bare his sharp fangs at her!
"Why was it destroyed so quickly? Could it be that there's a mole in your secret sentry, secretly colluding with Chu?”
Wu Mingyue stared coldly at the pale-faced woman.
Geng Jin sensed the Emperor's thick killing intent. She was probably about to become the target of his anger.
" Your Majesty, Jiang Yanwan trusts Su Guan too much. They had a meal together at dawn, and at noon, they searched the entire city. They even mobilized the imperial palace's Yulin Royal Guards…"
Her entire body was filled with fear as she struggled to move her lips.
When the emperor's will was carried out throughout Jin Ling city, how could the stronghold react?
Wu Mingyue's face, which was red from anger, gradually turned pale.
They ate together.
These words pierced her heart.
The lackey who had once treated her so well was now loyal to another woman. That woman was even more beautiful than her and was also known as the number one beauty in Nine Regions.
At the thought of this, Wu Mingyue was so jealous that she almost suffocated.
He was the one who threw away the trash, so why would he be jealous?
