Empress Abandoned in the Cold Palace: Queen Juan, she doesn't talk about martial arts

Chapter 182
Once this kind of doubt was born, a seed was planted in her heart, and she couldn't help thinking, could the empress dowager also be related to the corruption case?

This guess made her shudder.

Now, the prime minister is determined to win the ledger.

In the hands of the queen mother, she holds this ledger.

No matter what relationship the two parties have with the corruption case, the most important thing right now is to get the ledger.

Maybe through the ledger, she can detect some clues and clarify the doubts in her heart.

Su Lijin raised her head again, the expression on her face was already as usual.

"You steal that account book to me." She looked at the maid and ordered.

The palace maid looked at her in surprise: "But, the prime minister wants the account book. If the subordinate's hidden prime minister's mansion does not take orders from him for a while, I'm afraid..."

The misgivings of the court lady are indeed true.

However, this is not what Su Lijin wants to consider, and she is not the real Nanuo.

"Hmph, what are you afraid of!"

Su Lijin had a savage face, as if she was the real master in Mongolia: "I got the account book, and I will naturally make the prime minister obediently submit to the eldest prince!"

Hearing this, the palace maid's eyes lit up, she was after all the eldest prince's faction, hearing that this move was beneficial to the eldest prince, she was naturally happy in her heart.

Taking her expression into his eyes, Su Lijin's eyes flashed with satisfaction, and said: "Now that you know the function of the ledger, don't you hurry to get it? Finish it early, and the eldest prince can get a lot of help as soon as possible."

"Okay, this subordinate will do it now." The maid stood up quickly, turned around towards the palace, and sneaked in.

When she left, Su Lijin let out a breath, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

She didn't expect to meet a secret agent sent by Mongolia here, and it was also aimed at the account.

But since I have encountered it, and it happens to be useful, why not use it?
But wait...

Thinking in her heart, after a while, there was movement around her, and when she turned her head, the maid appeared again.

The court lady is holding a ledger with a blue cover in her hand!

Glancing over the ledger, Su Lijin stretched out her hand: "Bring it here."

The maid handed over the account book without hesitation: "This is the account book, please keep it well, the prime minister must be very jealous."

Holding the ledger in his hand, Su Lijin casually flipped through it, feeling shocked.

Even if I was mentally prepared, I couldn't help being shocked when I saw the people and numbers involved.

It seems that this is the ledger without a doubt.

After confirming the reliability of the ledger in his hand, Su Lijin raised her eyes, looked at the maid, and raised her hand slightly.

A burst of medicinal powder sprinkled on the maid, before the maid had time to react, she fell down quietly.

Su Lijin closed her eyes, she had to get rid of this court lady, otherwise, the prime minister would know about the ledger.

In the empress dowager's bedroom separated by a palace wall, the empress dowager who had slept for a while woke up at night.

She habitually touched the side of the pillow, but found nothing.

"what happened?"

The queen mother was puzzled, and looked around beside the pillow, but she couldn't find the account book with the blue cover, it had disappeared!
"Stolen!"

Gritting her teeth and staring at the pillow, the queen mother yelled outside: "Come on, catch the thief!"

A group of court ladies and eunuchs ran in, followed by a group of inner guards.

"My queen, what's the matter?"

Everyone looked at the Queen Mother, and then looked around the bedroom, but the bedroom was neat and tidy, and there was no mess.

The Empress Dowager patted the table with an angry look on her face: "How do you all work as errands? You don't even know there are thieves in the palace?"

The maids and eunuchs immediately knelt down: "The empress dowager forgive me!"

The guards also leaned over to plead guilty, and asked nervously, "I don't know what the Queen Mother lost? Where did the thief go?"

"Hmph, the important items left by the late emperor to Ai's family were stolen."

The queen mother said angrily: "You search the whole palace immediately, and you must bring that thing back to Aijia!"

"Yes!"

The guards led the order to go out, and immediately sent people to search the entire palace.

Looking at the guards in charge, a dark light flashed in the Queen Mother's eyes.

The ledger cannot be released to the public, and the former emperor must be used as a cover, otherwise it will be bad if people know what is lost.

Although it is not known who stole the account book, but in a short time, it must be still in this palace.

The queen mother clenched her teeth: "The Ai family wants to see who is so courageous! How dare you go against the Ai family!"

For a while, all the palaces were surrounded by guards who poured in, and everything inside and outside the palace was searched.

Everyone was frightened by this battle, and when they heard that the empress dowager had lost the things left by the former emperor, they were even more surprised and suspicious, guessing what was lost.

In Kunning Palace, Su Lijin was sitting in a high position with a teacup in hand.

The guards looked at her respectfully: "Your Majesty, the subordinates are ordered by the Empress Dowager to search the entire palace, and please cooperate with me."

Su Lijin took a sip of tea, then raised her head, smiled and said gently: "Since you have obeyed the Queen Mother's order, go over there."

Seeing that the permission was obtained so easily, the guards breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately searched the entire hall.

Seeing the guards searching the bedroom, Xianxian was a little dissatisfied and said: "Mother, why do you allow the guards to search indiscriminately inside? That's the Queen's bedroom."

Hearing this, Su Lijin glanced inside, something flashed in her eyes quickly, she pursed her lips: "It's okay, I can't find anything, let them search."

The empress dowager used the former emperor's belongings as a cover and did not dare to say anything, so she must be afraid.

However, she had already hidden her things well, even if she searched the bedroom, it was impossible to find them, so she didn't panic at all.

She secretly rejoiced in her heart, but luckily she had more foresight and took care of it as soon as she got it.

After a while, the guards came out and bowed to Su Lijin: "The subordinates will leave now, and disturb the empress to rest."

"Go back to life."

After waving his hands, Su Lijin looked as usual.

……

"Report! The front line is urgent, and the war is tense!"

A person came to report in a hurry.

This urgent report immediately made the atmosphere of the court tense.

Knowing that there was a sudden war on the front line, Xiao Shengyun read the urgent report, and said with a stern face: "Now a war is breaking out on the front line, and we will continue to reinforce. I have decided to go to the front line immediately!"

"No, the emperor's dragon body is important, you can't take it personally!"

"Yes, a country cannot be without a king for a day, the emperor still has to stay in the capital!"

The ministers had not recovered from the urgent report, and immediately persuaded them upon hearing the words.

Xiao Zhaolin's eyes dimmed, and he secretly said a good chance.

As long as Xiao Shengyao leaves the palace, if something happens on the way, can't it be covered up by an accident?
Secretly proud of himself, he suddenly took a step forward: "I believe that the emperor's actions will definitely boost the morale of the army, and it is not a bad idea for the emperor to go on a personal conquest."

An official sent by the prime minister also stood up: "The situation is turbulent now, and I believe that the prime minister should be transferred back to stabilize the government."

Xiao Shengyun glanced at the official, then his eyes fell on Xiao Zhaolin, his eyes remained unchanged: "That's right, the virtuous king might as well join me in the conquest this time, so I can have some help."

"As for the prime minister, I will transfer him back."

Xiao Zhaolin nodded: "I would like to accompany the emperor."

The officials of the prime minister's faction looked at each other, and their eyes were also full of joy.

The news that Xiao Shengyong was about to conquest by the royal family spread throughout the palace.
