Not long after Lu Qingge returned to the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
A sword-wielding guard wearing a flying fish robe with a murderous aura came to ask for an audience.
It was the leader of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, Azure Dragon!
At this moment, his subordinate behind him was holding a large stack of sealed documents.
"The matter that His Majesty asked me to do has been completed!”
"All the officials above the third rank, as long as they are related to the Empress Dowager, are all registered!”
"Their information is all here."
Azure Dragon respectfully reported.
"Not bad."
Lu Qingge nodded in satisfaction.
Then, he took the information and began to flip through it.
Many of the names on the list involved ministers. They were indeed the eagles and hounds in the hands of the Empress Dowager in the original novel!
Of course, Lu Qingge knew that the officials under the Empress Dowager were far more than that.
There were still many forces below that were intertwined!
It was completely impossible to investigate everything in a short period of time.
However, Lu Qingge didn't really care about those insignificant soldiers.
As long as he 'got rid' of those important ministers, it would be enough to hurt the Empress Dowager.
After returning from Eternal Peace Palace, Lu Qingge could not wait to deal with the Empress Dowager's forces.
He was not bewitched by the Empress Dowager's beauty.
Although the Empress Dowager's attitude towards him had changed, he was still a little worried.
But it was far from enough to save his life!
Lu Qingge clearly remembered how tragic 'her' fate was in the original novel.
When the empress dowager pushed her original body into the fire pit, she did not even blink.
It was this sense of danger that made Lu Qingge not dare to relax for even a moment.
With the advantage of being familiar with the plot and the help of the system, how could he let his fate be in the hands of a woman?
What a joke!
"Your Majesty, this information is true.”
"Although we can't prove that these high officials are the Empress Dowager's confidants, their relationship is definitely not ordinary!”
Azure Dragon seemed to be worried that Lu Qingge would doubt the authenticity of the information, so he could not help but remind her.
At that time, the Brocade Guards in charge of the investigation were shocked when they looked through the information!
There were simply too many ministers who were related to the Empress Dowager.
The Minister of Personnel, the Minister of Justice, the Minister of Revenue, and the Minister of Works!
There were four ministers in the six departments!
There was even the current Prime Minister!
When Azure Dragon was investigating this information, he could not help but be shocked.
He truly understood why the Empress Dowager had such power!
If it wasn't for the fact that the Empress Dowager didn't have military power.
The Azure Dragon even suspected that the Empress Dowager wanted to usurp the throne and become an eternal empress!
Lu Qingge knew what Azure Dragon was thinking from his expression.
There was no doubt that the Empress Dowager had such ambitions!
Moreover, he would put it into action!
"Right, there's also the Prime Minister, he's also ambitious!”
"He still thought that the Empress Dowager wouldn't dare to risk the world's condemnation.”
"Little did he know that he fell into the Empress Dowager's trap step by step and became a sharp blade in the Empress Dowager's hands!”
As Lu Qingge recalled, a cold smile appeared on her lips.
The current Prime Minister was not the Empress Dowager's confidant.
His ambition was no less than the Empress Dowager's!
They also coveted the throne!
He wanted to borrow the Empress Dowager's power, so he pretended to be polite.
Both of them were using each other!
But in the end, the Empress Dowager was the one who had the upper hand and had the last laugh.
Of course, in front of the hot shots, the Empress Dowager could not escape the fate of failure in the end.
"This Prime Minister Li is also a key figure. If we make good use of him, he will definitely be a good saber!”
Lu Qingge's eyes gleamed.
Now, the Prime Minister was undoubtedly treating him as a puppet emperor, and it was easy for him to let his guard down.
He could completely drag the Empress Dowager's banner and use the Prime Minister's authority to do things for him!
After browsing for a while.
Lu Qingge's gaze finally landed on the information on the Minister of Revenue!
"Qian Haitao is definitely one of the Empress Dowager's most loyal lackeys.”
"According to the plot, there will be a flood in Yuzhou soon.”
"As the Minister of Revenue, Qian Haitao will be fully responsible for this matter!”
"This person is corrupt and bribed. He will reap a lot of benefits from it.”
"A lot of money ended up in the Empress Dowager's pocket!”
Lu Qingge knew very well that the Empress Dowager had long been thinking of ways to amass wealth.
This was a reserve for recruiting soldiers and buying horses!
"With this incident, we can take Qian Haitao down!”
"However, since Qian Haitao has fallen, there must be a second person to replace him.”
"I have to find a suitable candidate to take over this position."
Lu Qingge pondered.
Even if he got rid of Qian Haitao, the Empress Dowager would definitely find her trusted aide to replace him.
That was essentially meaningless.
Suddenly, Lu Qingge's heart skipped a beat!
"Oh right, the warehouse manager of the Ministry of Revenue is definitely a rare talent!”
"This person's talent was not appreciated and has always been unknown in the Ministry of Revenue.”
"In the end, I met a hot shot and started to soar!”
"Very good. After Qian Haitao's 'mishap' this time, I'll let him take charge of disaster relief!”
"After he has made some contributions, he will naturally be pushed to the position of Minister of Revenue!”
Lu Qingge quickly finalized her plan based on the clues and characters in the original story.
Time passed, and it was night time.
Lu Qingge sat cross-legged on the bed and checked her current Plot Points.
He had already accumulated 15000 Plot Points!
"System, spend 1000 Plot Points to start the lottery!”
Lu Qingge ordered.
Ding! Lottery in progress!
[Congratulations, host. You have received a reward: One Dragon Blood Pill!]
"Hmm? Another Dragon Blood Pill?"
The Dragon Blood Pill was considered a low-level Earth Grade medicinal pill, but Lu Qingge was not satisfied with this.
The reason why he had used so few Plot Points was to see if he could get a top-grade item.
"System, continue! He still had to spend 1000 Plot Points to draw the lottery!”
Alright, host!
Lottery in progress!
Ding! [Congratulations, host. You have received a reward: One Dragon Blood Pill!]
Lu Qingge's lips twitched.
F * ck...
Why was it another Dragon Blood Pill?
Could it be that the system wanted him to cultivate faster and increase his realm?
"Forget it. It seems that the probability of dropping a top-grade item is very low.”
"System, this time, I will directly use 8000 Plot Points to draw the lottery!”
Lottery in progress!
Ding! [Congratulations to the host for drawing a reward: Heaven Rank cultivation technique, Great Yellow Court!]
"Oh? That's more like it!"
The next moment, before Lu Qingge could rejoice for long…
A surge of mysterious information and energy surged into his body.
It allowed the true qi in his dantian to start circulating according to the mysterious route!
After a total of 365 cycles of circulation.
Lu Qingge felt that her True Qi had increased by at least ten times!
Furthermore, the true qi was being compressed crazily, and its quality was much higher than before!
