Li Chen knew that Zhao Qinglan and Zhao Xuanji must have a secret channel to communicate information, and this channel would be hidden so deeply that the gain would outweigh the losses if it was discovered, and they would also have other ways to communicate with each other.
Therefore, Li Chen did not find it strange that Zhao Qinglan was able to grasp the dynamics of the previous dynasty, and that Zhao Xuanji was well aware of the changes in the harem.
But today, Zhao Qinglan left Fengxi Palace and went straight to the Hall of Supreme Harmony. There was a lot of fanfare along the way, but Li Chen himself didn't receive any news. This made Li Chen realize that he still underestimated the father and daughter, and also overestimated the harem.
How loyal these people are to themselves.
In this regard, Li Chen could only use the simplest and crudest method.
Replace the guards.
Since you don’t know which one is a human and which one is a ghost, then replace them all with the most reliable of your own.
Regardless of timeliness or cost, this is the most cost-effective option.
That's why Li Chen asked Chen Tong to prepare such a group of manpower.
Logically speaking, it would be most appropriate for Sanbao to handle this matter. After all, he was originally a eunuch and had been in the palace all his life. He knew very well who was easy to use and who was not.
But Li Chen didn't want Sanbao to interfere in too many things.
Chen Tong's role is also reflected.
It's just that Zhao Qinglan's reaction will definitely be huge.
Sure enough, Zhao Qinglan flatly refused and said without hesitation: "Impossible! The current guard is very easy for me to use. There is no need to replace it."
Li Chen said calmly: "You don't seem to understand. This is a notification, not a discussion."
Zhao Qinglan said angrily: "Li Chen, don't push yourself too far! After all, I am still the legitimate queen of the Qin Empire. What do you want to do, put me under house arrest and monitor me?"
Li Chen took half a step forward.
The distance between the two was already very close, and this half-step closer made their bodies almost touch each other.
The most plump part of a woman's body was pressed against Li Chen's chest.
This kind of close contact made Zhao Qinglan extremely ashamed and angry.
Before Zhao Qinglan scolded him, Li Chen said: "Whether you treat it as house arrest or under surveillance, the people in Fengxi Palace must be changed if they change, or if they don't, they must be changed. Let me tell you straight, it's not just Fengxi Palace."
The guards, all the maids, and the eunuchs all need to be replaced."
"But don't worry, I will let them take good care of you. You will not lack the glory and wealth that a queen should have."
Zhao Qinglan hated Li Chen so much that she gritted her teeth and said, "Are you taking revenge on me? To retaliate against the fact that I almost ordered you to be placed under house arrest in the East Palace?"
"For many things, you only have one chance. If you miss it, there is no point in regretting it."
Li Chen said indifferently: "What's more, if I don't agree, Zhao Xuanji really dares to directly challenge him?"
Zhao Qinglan's expression changed.
"Yes, he really has such a plan."
Li Chen sneered, moved closer to Zhao Qinglan, and touched Zhao Qinglan's nose with the tip of his nose. As he spoke and breathed, the woman's elegant and pleasant fragrance lingered, but Li Chen felt calm in his heart.
"Since you are a queen, you should be your queen well. But if you do something that a queen shouldn't do, how long do you think Zhao Xuanji can protect you?"
Looking at Li Chen who was like a demon in front of him, Zhao Qinglan suddenly felt an unspeakable fear in his heart.
"You, what exactly do you want to do?"
Li Chen grabbed her wrist with one hand, and suddenly wrapped his other hand around her soft waist, pressing her tightly into his arms, and then moved his hand up Zhao Qinglan's infinitely beautiful waist curve.
, reached her back, pressed her into his arms, and allowed their bodies to fit together without any hindrance.
Leaning close to Zhao Qinglan's ear, Li Chen said slowly: "Zhao Xuanji wants the world to be chaotic, so let's be chaotic. If it's not chaotic, he can't kill me, and I... can't kill him either."
