He lowered his head slightly and did not look directly at Jiang Qingxue, so his face could not be seen clearly, but he had an awe-inspiring aura around him that made it impossible for anyone to have any delusional thoughts.

"Master...you saved me again..."

Jiang Qingxue spoke with difficulty.

Nangong Yan did not take the credit for himself, nor did he explain too much. His words were as cold and distant as his person.

"The incompetence of a humble minister is due to His Majesty's own great blessings."

Jiang Qingxue waved her hand weakly.

"Thank you for your hard work, Master. Go back and rest!"

She doesn't want to have more contact with Nangong Yan now. She has just arrived and needs to get more familiar with the situation and figure it out slowly to avoid exposing her secrets.

I heard that Nangong Yan was a cultivator of immortality. He looked like this when the late emperor was in power. Decades later, he still looks like this. This kind of old and spicy ginger is not easy to trick.

Nangong Yan bowed his hands respectfully.

"Wei Chen retire."

He turned around and left, and a pair of hands as white as jade brushed through the bead curtain, which was actually a bit whiter than the white jade beads.

Jiang Qingxue cursed and said, "I'm leaving now. As a courtier, shouldn't I care about her?" It can be seen that he is not interested in the original owner.

Xiao Fuzi interrupted from the side.

"Haha, the original owner behaved a bit ridiculously on weekdays and was also lustful. The master was a little disappointed in her, so his attitude was a little colder..."

Several imperial doctors personally prepared the medicine and brought it in with their knees bent, with flattering smiles on their faces.

"Your Majesty, Weichen has already soaked the medicine in cold water. Weichen has just tasted it. It is just right, neither cold nor hot."

Jiang Qingxue coughed a few times and regained her momentum.

"Well, bring it in."

Immediately, several palace maids lifted up the layers of gorgeous gauze curtains, and they worked together to help her up. One of them gave her medicine, and the other took the handkerchief.

Jiang Qingxue took a few sips and then took the medicine bowl.

"Go down, I'll drink it myself."

A palace maid was busy delivering a delicate little box, which contained candied fruits and other items, specially prepared for drinking medicine. Everyone bowed their heads and left.

As soon as the person left, Jiang Qingxue handed the medicine bowl to Xiao Fuzi.

"Take it and pour it. When you come back, tell me carefully about the situation in Xianluo Kingdom."

Xiao Fuzi finally regained his original green body, so he was extremely attentive and he ran like crazy.

"You also have two half-sisters and a half-brother. The one who harmed you has been sent to prison, and the other two are not easy to use..."

Jiang Qingxue thought for a while and then ordered him.

"You go and investigate those courtiers and relatives of the emperor. Anyone who harbors evil intentions and does many evil things can directly poison me while I am still recovering from my serious illness. This way, there will be no suspicion on me."

Xiao Fuzi shook his head hurriedly.

"No, no, no, it won't be worth it if you poison it to death. We can confiscate your home first. Your treasury is empty now. You have owed the money requested by the Ministry of War for several months. If you continue to delay, the soldiers on the front line will rebel."

In order to help Jiang Qingxue become the empress, he was so worried that he read the excerpts all night before he could sort out some ideas.

Jiang Qingxue patted his head.

"You are still smart, go and collect evidence. It will all depend on you to make a fortune in the future. If you want to conquer the Taifu, you must first make some political achievements to impress him. I am still a little dizzy now, and I need to rest for a few more days."

She rested in the Hall of Supreme Harmony for nearly half a month, eating and drinking every day, so happy. Xiao Fuzi, on the other hand, was out day and night to inquire about the situation, following the court officials and frantically collecting evidence of their crimes.

He was busy with his small notebook.

"On the 16th, Mr. Chu entered the brothel and hung out all night without returning."

"On the 17th, Master Wang took advantage of his son to go out and molested his daughter-in-law in the study."

"On the 18th, the Prime Minister's second son drove his horse into the city and injured people."

"On the 19th, the dragon robe was found at Princess Wengyang's house."

"On the 20th, many beautiful prostitutes were bought into the house of the Minister of Civil Affairs."

Jiang Qingxue took the small notebook and read it with gusto. She was especially interested in Mr. Wang who was teasing her daughter-in-law. She wanted to see what he looked like.

……

The next day, just after the fifth watch, she got up.

She sat there with squinted eyes, washed up, put on her robe, combed her hair, put on a heavy and gorgeous tiara, and was surrounded by the eunuch and a group of female officials. Go to Qinzheng Palace.

She cursed as she walked.

"You have to suffer, it's not even dawn yet..."

Seeing that she didn't seem to be awake, the chief eunuch quickly reminded her.

"Your Majesty, Jiang Meiling has been thrown into prison, but she continues to cry out for injustice, and even said that Your Majesty accidentally fell down. Has Your Majesty thought about how to deal with this vicious woman?"

Sure enough, Jiang Qingxue narrowed her eyes.

"You are in good spirits. Do you still have the energy to complain? Is the food too good? According to my decree, a bowl of gruel every day is enough. No one is allowed to visit."

Seeing the effect, the eunuch continued with a smile.

"While Your Majesty was in coma, the eldest princess and many ministers in the court moved around very frequently, and they were often invited to restaurants and annexes in the capital."

"Prince Rui is quite honest and has no ambitions for power. However, last month he took in two more concubines and wanted to rob the daughter of the young minister of Dali Temple. Fortunately, the young master of the young minister of Dali Temple fought to the death, so he did not Succeed."

Jiang Qingxue knew that the eldest princess was her half-sister named Jiang Yuqiong, and Prince Rui was her half-brother named Jiang Lianbi.

She asked slightly displeased.

"Forcibly robbing an official woman, is this called honesty?"

The old eunuch was speechless.

"This, this, this..."

Jiang Lianbi has always been arrogant and domineering. This is not the first time that this happened. His Majesty always turned a blind eye before. Why did he lose his temper today? It must have been Jiang Meiling's incident that made His Majesty hate these three people. .

No one dared to speak anymore.

Jiang Qingxue also cheered up.

She felt a little nervous. Although she was used to seeing the big world before, it was her first time to be an empress. This was an empress that surpassed tens of thousands of people. Thinking of this, she felt a little excited.

As soon as they entered the Qinzheng Hall, they saw a vast darkness. The civil servants and military officers were standing on the left and right. All the civil servants were wearing warm-colored official robes, and the military attachés were all wearing cold-colored official robes. Everyone lowered their eyebrows and lowered their eyes, holding Chao Huts in their hands.

Jiang Qingxue sat down on the large and gorgeous dragon chair, straightened her back, and then looked at her courtiers. Xiao Fuzi said that all the civil and military men in the court were beautiful. She wanted to see whether it was true or not.

Before she could see clearly, the eunuch screamed in a high voice.

"Go up!"

All the old men below shouted in unison.

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

Jiang Qingxue raised her hand slightly to signal everyone to excuse herself.

At this time, the ministers below also raised their heads. The row of old men with gray hair and beards in front of them all looked at her kindly, with tears in their eyes.

"Your Majesty survived the catastrophe, I am so happy!"
