Empress Dowager Guide

Chapter 51 Shaking the Country
Mrs. Li's eyelashes trembled slightly when she heard the words, her mouth was still biting tightly.

When Shen Sizheng saw the case, he presented Mrs. Li with a signature of the crime. Mrs. Li confessed to the theft, but she still refused to speak about the whereabouts of the lost property.

"Empress Dowager, in my humble opinion, if torture is not used, she may not open her mouth." Shen Wenjin turned her head, glanced at Mrs. Li as if there was nothing, and continued, "If Gong Zhengsi's water-like instruments of torture pass by Once again, Weichen is sure to pry her mouth open."

Sheng Shaoqing frowned, this is not good.

At this moment, Yuan Che suddenly tugged on Sheng Shaoqing's sleeve. Seeing that he wanted to say something, Sheng Shaoqing leaned over and listened to him.

Yuan Che covered his mouth with his hands, and whispered, "My queen, although Mrs. Li likes luxury, she is very arrogant. If torture is used, I'm afraid it won't work."

Sheng Shaoqing looked at Yuan Che in surprise, "How do you know?"

Yuan Che stuck out his tongue, so he didn't tell his mother that it was his father who had accidentally said that he liked the pride in Mrs. Li.

Sheng Shaoqing thought about it, since he was so arrogant, how could he be such a thug?

【Host!It has just been detected that your kinship value has suddenly soared, and you can now exchange for rare items! 】

Sheng Shaoqing:? ? ? ?
"What kind of rarity?"

【Sincere Pill: I can always be sincere to you. 】

[Digestion Pill: It can resolve past grievances. 】

[Wangqingshui: I can forget all the love and hate in the past, and become a stranger again. 】

"What do I want these for???"

[You can use the True Heart Pill to make Mrs. Li tell the truth. 】

"Can you still play like this???"

The system didn't speak, but it backed up what he said with practical actions, because Sheng Shaoqing felt that there was a small white bottle in his sleeve.

Sheng Shaoqing took out the bottle, handed it to Shen Wenjin who was in front of her, and motioned for her to take it for Mrs. Li with his eyes.

Shen Wenjin was terrified, she only wanted to use torture, but she didn't want to die.

But under the coercion of the queen mother, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk towards Mrs. Li with tea.

Signaling those thick female historians to hold Mrs. Li, Shen Wenjin forced the elixir given by the Queen Mother into Mrs. Li's mouth.

"You——what are you doing!! Uh—" Mrs. Li closed her eyes and didn't realize the danger was coming. When she realized it, she could only retch and want to spit out the "poison".

Seeing that the struggle was fruitless, Mrs. Li simply stopped retching, and only glared at Sheng Shaoqing and said, "Abusive lynching in the palace, you!"

Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Li gradually felt that something was wrong. The Sheng Shaoqing in front of her was no longer that obnoxious look, but became amiable.

Until the end, the feeling of something wrong completely dissipated, and Sheng Shaoqing had become a god-like existence in her heart.

"The empress dowager is right! It's the concubine who deserves to die!"

Shen Wenjin was also surprised by the change in Mrs. Li's expression. He was even more surprised when he heard Mrs. Li's words.
Why is Mrs. Li's demeanor becoming more and more peaceful, and even cast a radiance of admiration? The Queen Mother's medicine has a very different effect!

Sheng Shaoqing: 6.

"Ahem", Sheng Shaoqing cleared his throat, "Tell me, where did you put all the things you stole? Why did you steal it?"

Mrs. Li replied respectfully, "The concubine is only responsible for transporting these treasures outside the palace. After handing them over to the people of the Li family, the concubine will not know about the rest."

Everyone was shocked by Mrs. Li's transformation. What the queen mother just gave was not medicine, but ecstasy soup.

Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Li told everyone an even more outrageous story, and the people present didn't know which one to shock first.

The Li family was also a very prosperous family in the previous dynasty, but since Beiliang took over the Central Plains, they looked down on the Han people, so the Li family could only curl up their wings and retreat to Jiangzhou.

After years of recuperation, the Li family finally had the capital to make a comeback, and what they planned was to regain the lost land in the south of the Yangtze River.

In their hearts, there is their homeland.

Li Lingjiang had also tried to see if the imperial court had any intention of going south, and after being rejected many times, he came up with this strategy, wanting to garrison troops privately, control the military power, and then plan to go south.

"The concubine used to have resentment towards you, so she would speak rudely. I just don't want you to be the empress dowager with such a good fortune, while I have managed to get nothing for many years, and I have to be used as a pawn to squeeze out the last bit of value. "

"As for Mrs. Li, I have paid off my debts these years, and now I owe nothing to Mrs. Li."

Sheng Shaoqing couldn't digest such a big secret all of a sudden, and everyone was dumbfounded.

Sheng Shaoqing issued a gag order, and after dismissing everyone, he asked Mrs. Li for a long time before letting her go.

When Mrs. Li was leaving, she still looked at Sheng Shaoqing reluctantly, step by step. How could she think that the Queen Mother was vulgar in the past? For such a gentle person, she must have blind eyes and mistook pearls for fish eyes.

When Sheng Shaoqing brought the equally shocked Yuan Che back to the palace, he couldn't help sighing, if only there was such a good thing.

[That's not because you don't work hard to score points. If your points are high enough, you can use whatever props you want. 】

Sheng Shaoqing choked for a moment, changed the subject and asked, "I haven't asked yet, why did the value of family affection suddenly increase so much??? Didn't I do anything to Yuan Che?"

If only her fund could rise like this back then.

[You are not only related to Yuan Che, but also your father, sister, etc., but this time it seems to be because of Princess Lin Yang. 】

Sheng Shaoqing:? ? ? ?
"Me and Princess Linyang??"

[Because Wei Zhen spread rumors about you and Yun Zhi, Princess Lin Yang's affection for you has doubled. She has heard the rumor that you can't beg Yun Zhi, so she can only keep backing down on government affairs. A sympathetic patient. 】

Sheng Shaoqing:
She withdraws her opinion that Princess Lin Yang has a high IQ. Rumors are so ridiculous, can she believe them? ? ?
[Troubled by love, it's inevitable. 】

"Is it because of that face?"

【Yes, it has been half a month since the princess detained him in the backyard, rumors have spread everywhere, but the man still refuses to obey, the princess has nothing to do about it. 】

The sex change version is stealthy, this face is quite spineless, the princess of the court dared to refuse, but I don't know if he is as capable as Ji Wenxuan.

And Yuan Che also thought silently along the way. When his father was around, he once commented on Li Lingjiang as a great talent, but his style of behavior was quite controversial. If someone guides him to the right path, he can be reused.

Just now when his mother mentioned Li Lingjiang, the Li family of Jiangzhou, he realized that his concubine's younger brother was Li Lingjiang.

However, Li's plans have already involved shaking the foundation of the country. According to the instructions of the Taifu, the entire Li family should be punished.
