At that time, the Empress Dowager and the Lin family wanted to drive her and Gu Fenglin far away so that they could control the young emperor.
Now that the young emperor is about to die and the Zhao Kingdom is about to collapse and perish, they are going to talk to her about responsibility and morality?
Mu Yunhan felt it was extremely ridiculous: "The empress ordered someone to set up a trap to arrest her brother-in-law, and she tried every possible means to lure her to the capital. Isn't it just to fall out with her and settle old scores?"
The Empress Dowager stared at her with a dull face and said after a long while: "I don't understand what you are talking about. What happened to your brother? Didn't he go back well?"
Mu Yunhan was extremely angry and laughed: "Just because he was able to come back alive, can this incident be treated as if it never happened?
Mu Ying disappeared because of this, and there has been no news so far. Should I blame Hu Yanxiang or who should blame this debt?"
The Queen Mother frowned slightly: "What's wrong with Mu Ying?"
Mu Yunhan was too lazy to say more and said directly: "What are your intentions, please tell me clearly to avoid wasting time."
She was so anxious that she was too lazy to go around in circles with them. It was a waste of time.
Aunt Ying wanted to scold Mu Yunhan for being unruly, but as soon as she called out "Mrs. Anguo", Mu Yunhan glanced at her coldly.
Aunt Ying was immediately stuck. She had to make it clear that the carriage and horses would fight to the death. Shou'an Palace may not be really afraid of the Shenguan Palace, but in this critical moment, it would be better to reduce the internal friction.
Being looked down upon by her ministers, the Empress Dowager's expression did not look any better.
But after all, she was able to endure strong winds and waves, and she quickly made a decision: "A Ying, you go and guard His Majesty."
Aunt Ying bowed her head and stepped back, gently closing the palace door.
The wind and noise outside were suddenly shut out, and the hall was completely silent. The ice strands in the ice basin were surrounded by damp and cold air, which made people irritated for no reason.
The Empress Dowager let out a sigh of relief and said, "Mu Yunhan, do you still remember what it was like when you first entered the palace?
When you first met me, you were so respectful and docile, but now you are so arrogant and rude. I'm afraid there is no one like this in this world, right?
If the people of the world knew that Mrs. Anguo, whom they admire, was such a person, what would they think?"
"Let's not talk about the past, it will hurt our feelings." Mu Yunhan didn't care about these accusations: "It's getting dark, please make it clear as soon as possible."
"You have changed." The Empress Dowager felt that she really didn't care: "Is it because of Gu Fenglin?"
Mu Yunhan then raised his head to meet the Empress Dowager's eyes and said softly: "Yes, the person I care about most is gone, so what else do I care about?
The younger brother has returned to a safe place. The empress must have received the battle report, and the Meizhou area has long been out of the control of the imperial court.
Zhou Shoubei led his soldiers straight to the border to fight against the enemy, no longer obeying the court's orders. The rebels there were springing up like bamboo shoots after a rain. It was all because of Lin's destruction of their foundation.
There is nothing you can do against Mu An. There is no news about Mu Ying. I would be very happy if I could find her with the help of my empress.
As for Your Majesty, I have just thought clearly that he is always closer to you than me, and he is more important to you than to me, so I am not afraid that you will use him to manipulate me."
Apart from this life, she has no weakness that the Empress Dowager can manipulate.
The Empress Dowager was defeated: "Yes, when Zhao Guo has reached this point, I will never give up. Therefore, I have tried every possible means to invite you here, just to beg you."
