After the retreat.
Just as Lu Qingge was about to return to her bedroom, an old eunuch dressed in luxurious clothes suddenly arrived.
Lu Qingge's heart skipped a beat when she saw who it was.
This was Eunuch Yu, the deputy chief eunuch of the palace. He was also one of the Empress Dowager's trusted subordinates.
"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager invites you!"
Eunuch Yu came in front of him and bowed respectfully. Then, he spoke in a soft voice.
In the past, he wouldn't have taken Lu Qingge to heart.
However, what happened in the court today made his heart palpitate.
When he saw Cao Zhengchun, who was standing beside Lu Qingge, a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.
"Eunuch Yang is a Vajra Realm martial expert and is extremely powerful. However, in the hands of this mysterious eunuch, he is as weak as a clay chicken or a pottery dog!”
"If I were to offend you in the slightest, I'm afraid I'll follow in Eunuch Yang's footsteps."
Eunuch Yu did not dare to show any disrespect to Lu Qingge.
He was afraid that he would be caught and die in vain.
That mysterious eunuch who looked slightly fat and always smiled was definitely a ruthless person who killed without blinking!
Seeing Eunuch Yu's reaction, Lu Qingge sneered inwardly.
Today's actions had indeed achieved good results!
In the past, the eunuchs under the Empress Dowager were all respectful on the surface.
However, he could clearly see the indifference in the depths of her eyes.
Sometimes, she even dared to mock him!
Just like Eunuch Yang today, he dared to speak in front of all the officials.
One could imagine how arrogant he was.
Who asked them to be favored by the Empress Dowager?
"Lead the way."
Lu Qingge's tone was calm.
"Your Majesty, please follow this old servant."
Led by Eunuch Yu, Lu Qingge soon arrived at Eternal Peace Palace.
In the Empress Dowager's bedroom.
This palace was very spacious, with a rockery and flowing water. The scenery was pleasant, and the luxury was almost no less than the emperor's bedroom.
"Your Majesty, this is the Empress Dowager's palace. Without the Empress Dowager's permission, no one else is allowed to enter.”
The head guard's respectful voice carried a hint of coldness. As he spoke, he glanced at Cao Zhengchun, who was standing behind Lu Qingge.
"I am in charge of His Majesty's safety, so I must follow him closely.”
Cao Zhengchun stared at the guard leader with a fake smile.
Instantly, the guard leader felt as if he had been targeted by a poisonous snake, and a chill ran down his spine!
This feeling shocked him!
"When did such an expert eunuch appear in the palace?”
This guard leader was a first-grade sword-wielding guard who protected the palace. He was a Tongxuan realm expert!
However, facing the mysterious eunuch in front of him, he actually felt a sense of fear. It was really unbelievable!
"Eunuch Cao, you can wait here.”
Lu Qingge waved her hand nonchalantly.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Cao Zhengchun cupped his fists and accepted the order.
Lu Qingge was not worried about any danger in the Empress Dowager's chambers.
This place was heavily guarded, and experts were everywhere. It was impossible for an assassin to sneak in.
As for whether the Empress Dowager would deal with him, Lu Qingge was not worried at all.
"With Wang Yun Yan's arrogance and shrewdness, the little ability I showed today was far from enough to arouse her killing intent.”
Lu Qingge laughed at himself.
Wang Yunyan was the Empress Dowager's real name.
Lu Qingge, who was familiar with the plot, knew very well that the Empress Dowager would never hurt her while she was still of great value.
On the contrary, he had to protect himself!
A moment later.
In an elegant courtyard, Lu Qingge met the Empress Dowager.
This woman who was the mother of the world was currently sitting on a recliner with a slightly lazy posture.
Her skin was as smooth and delicate as a teenage girl's, but her figure was plump and carried a mature charm that young girls did not have.
As her eyes moved slightly, her charm was enough to charm all living beings.
"As expected of the once number one beauty of the Imperial City. Her charm still remains today, and her charm has not diminished. No wonder even the old emperor was mesmerized.”
Lu Qingge praised in his heart.
Just as he looked at the Empress Dowager, a character attribute panel appeared in his mind!
Name: Wang Yunyan
[Age: 35]
[Identity: Empress Dowager of Great Qian Dynasty]
[Cultivation: None]
[Attitudes: Unfamiliar]
Lu Qingge didn't expect the system to have such a function. It was a great convenience for her!
When he saw that his relationship with the empress dowager was just that of a stranger, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
He was not too surprised.
"In the original novel, the new emperor was just a tool.”
"Although the Empress Dowager raised him, she never had much affection for him!”
"From the beginning to the end, in the Empress Dowager's heart, he was just a puppet, helping her plot to usurp the throne.”
"Otherwise, he wouldn't have pushed his original body out to die without hesitation.”
Lu Qingge sighed inwardly.
This was also the reason why he felt deeply sad for his original body after transmigrating.
"This woman is also amazing."
"He doesn't have any martial arts cultivation, but he can control the government. He's simply able to turn the clouds and rain with a flip of his hand.”
Although all sorts of thoughts were running through Lu Qingge's mind, he maintained a respectful expression on his face and bowed to the Empress Dowager."
"Son greets mother."
The Empress Dowager nodded lightly and asked meaningfully,""Qingge, how do you feel about your ascension today?”
Lu Qingge knew that the Empress Dowager was blaming her for 'showing off' in court today!
"Fortunately, everything went according to Mother's arrangements and the ascension went smoothly.”
Lu Qingge pretended to be confused.
She even pushed all the credit to the Empress Dowager.
Seeing this, the Empress Dowager's eyes flashed with a strange light.
Lu Qingge still looked respectful.
However, there was no longer the reverence in his eyes!
"Could it be that BenGong misjudged?"
The Empress Dowager's expression remained unchanged, but her tone carried a hint of reproach.
"You are now the ruler of a country. You can't have people of unknown origins by your side.”
As she spoke, the empress dowager stared into Lu Qingge's eyes, trying to find some clues.
However, Lu Qingge's eyes were bright and clear. She did not panic at all, but she said with a slightly ashamed tone,"
"Mother is referring to Eunuch Cao, right?"
"In reality, he was a trusted aide left behind by the late emperor and was loyal to me.”
"I only just learned of this person's existence and didn't have the time to tell mother. I was negligent, so I hope mother can punish me.”
Lu Qingge had thought of this phrase long ago.
All the blame was placed on that cheap dead father. In any case, there was no evidence!
As expected.
Hearing this, the empress dowager's face revealed a thoughtful expression.
"Is it a backup plan left behind by the old emperor?”
She didn't suspect Lu Qingge!
