What she was worried about was that something might have happened to Bai Lingyu.
"Send someone from the king to find out what is going on."
The empress dowager couldn't sit still any longer and ordered Qin mama to send someone to find out more news.
At first, Qin mama didn't know what plans the empress dowager and prince had, but now she did.
"Yes."
Just as Qin mama was about to send people to scout for news, the sound of fighting and shouting came from outside.
Thunder rumbled in the sky as the drizzle gradually turned into a drizzling rain.
At this moment, a guard suddenly ran in from outside and half-knelt before the empress dowager. "Reporting to the empress dowager, the prince has already made his move. The prince has ordered for the empress dowager to hide in the secret passage so no one can rush in and hurt her."
The empress dowager's lips quirked into a cold smile as she looked at the guard.
She walked straight out of the hall. Hearing the clashing of swords and sabers, the shouts of the guards and the screams of the palace maids, she felt extremely happy in her heart.
The empress dowager stood outside the palace, a smile on her face.
"Haha …" Your Majesty, are you looking? Back then, you didn't pass the throne down to Yu'er, but now, this throne belongs to you as well! And the 'White Battle Cake' that you have always been attaching importance to, he will soon become Yu'er's soul. "
"Haha …"
The empress dowager had been hidden in the secret passage for an unknown period of time before someone brought her out.
When the empress dowager walked out of the Dew Palace, the entire palace was a mess.
The bodies of the guards and maids were lying on the ground.
"Esteemed Empress Dowager, the prince has already controlled the emperor to the great hall. He asks the empress dowager to come over."
"Alright, lead the way!"
In the main hall, Bai Zhan Ke was clad in dragon robes. A sword seemed to have stabbed into his waist, dyeing the yellow dragon robes on his waist red.
And beside him, was the flower hibiscus that was always supporting him.
Bai Lingyu stood in front of them, looking down on the two of them as they tightly embraced each other. Her expression was extremely ugly.
"Prince, the empress dowager is here."
At this time, a guard walked over and whispered into Bai Ling Yu's ear.
Bai Ling Yu glanced at Hua Mu Jin and Bai Zhan Ke sitting on the ground, then turned around and walked towards the Dragon Throne in the great hall.
When the empress dowager was brought up to the great hall, she saw the bodies lying on the ground, as well as the wounded Battle Qi and Hua Mujie who were already sitting on the ground. A sinister smile rose at the corners of her lips.
"Haha, this day has finally arrived. "You didn't think that you would still lose to This Dowager!"
Bai Zhan looked angrily at the empress dowager who stood on the high platform. His expression showed that he was currently filled with rage.
"Imperial Mother, your son will not disappoint you. This throne belongs to me now."
Bai Linyu rose from her dragon throne and walked over to the empress dowager. She then supported the empress dowager, walking over to Bai Zhan Ke and Hua Mujiao Jin.
"Bai Ling Yu, you plotted to usurp your position, aren't you afraid of being punished by the heavens?"
Hua Mujiao angrily spat towards Bai Linyu. Her face was filled with rage, and she wished that she could directly swallow Bai Linghu.
"Shut up!"
Seeing that the flower hibiscus was disrespectful to her son, the empress dowager stepped forward and raised her hand to slap the flower hibiscus in the face.
However, the hand she threw out was stopped by Bai Lingyu.
"Muhou, you can't hit her!"
"Why can't I hit her? This slut, like her mother, is born with a cheap bone, and when death approaches, she dares to be disrespectful to you. Not only will This Dowager beat her, This Dowager will also let her, like her mother, be devoured alive by the Gu worms! "
Devoured alive by the Gu worm?
The empress dowager's words instantly ignited the flames of fury in Hibiscus frontalis.
She stood up abruptly, and before the empress dowager and Bai Linyu could react, she slapped the empress dowager's face.
"Pa …"
The sound of the slap resounded through the entire hall. No one expected that Hua Mujiao would suddenly make a move.
"A ruthless person like you will die a horrible death sooner or later!"
"You, you actually dared to hit This Dowager? "Someone, someone, drag her out! Hack, hack …"
The empress dowager flew into a rage at this slap. Although she had ordered Hua Mujiao to be executed again, none of the guards in the hall moved to take action.
"Muhou, you cannot kill her!"
Bai Linyu's attitude made the empress dowager astonished.
She looked at him and questioned him harshly, "Yu'er, if she dares hit This Dowager, why can't This Dowager kill her?"
Bai Ling Yu glanced at Hua Mu Jin, revealing a troubled expression.
Then he said to the Empress, "Imperial Mother, I love her, so you cannot kill her."
"You, what did you say?"
The empress dowager stared at Bai Linyu in disbelief, completely unable to believe what she had just heard.
"I love her. You can't kill her."
"You, Yu'er, are you silly? How is a woman like her worth your love when she's already another man? You must know that you will become the ruler of a country. If you keep her, you will only become a scourge. You have to listen to This Dowager and kill her! "
Bai Linyu glanced at the agitated empress dowager before instructing, "Someone, take her away and lock her up."
"Yes sir!"
The guard took Bai Linyu's orders, walked up, and picked up the hibiscus flower, preparing to take her down.
"Nangong Liuli, you will die a horrible death!"
Before she was taken away, Hua Mujiao was still cursing the empress dowager.
Her Majesty listened to her voice and was furious.
"Yu'er, you …"
Bai Linyu insisted on leaving behind the flower hibiscus, and the Empress Dowager could do nothing about it.
Since that was the case, she could only think of a way to get rid of the thorn in her side.
The most important thing right now was how to get rid of Bai Zhan Ke.
"Muhou, Thirteen …" "If Bai Yan runs away, then your son will have to go and capture him. Please stay here for now, your son will be back soon."
The empress dowager's gaze swept the hall once, but she did not see Bai Yan.
Although it didn't matter if Bai Yan caught him or not, it was best to eliminate the root of the problem.
"Alright, it's best if you don't leave a single one behind, in order to avoid future troubles."
"This son understands."
Bai Lingyu led her two guards and left. The empress dowager looked down from her position on the ground, her hand covering her injured abdomen. A cold smile rose at the corners of her lips.
"Did you not think that you would be defeated by This Dowager? Or perhaps, you did not think that you would be defeated by This Dowager's son? "
Bai Zhan Ke looked coldly at the Empress Dowager, his dark eyes filled with murderous intent.
"Didn't you poison royal father and plant a Gu in him just so that he could pass on the throne to Bai Lingyu?"
The empress dowager smiled and motioned for Senior Servant Qin to bring a chair over for her. She then sat down on the chair and looked at Bai Zhan Ke with a victorious attitude.
"That's right, the reason This Dowager poisoned His Majesty was to force him to write the posthumous edict and pass it on to Yu'er, but he just didn't want to. No matter what, he had to pass on the throne to you.
When Bai Linyu left, the Empress spoke of the truth of that year without a care.
So, This Dowager plotted for you to enter the palace. When he couldn't stand it anymore, This Dowager knew that he would make you give him a break, and you, naturally, wouldn't be able to watch him live a life worse than death. "
"So, your goal is to make me bear the crime of murdering the monarch and usurping the throne?"
Facing Bai Zhan Ke's killing intent, the empress dowager wasn't afraid at all.
Because she knew that this man who looked like a stray dog would soon die.
"This Dowager planned everything, but absolutely did not plan for it. His Majesty had long since drawn up an imperial edict and passed the throne to you. Originally, even if there was a testamentary edict, as long as you were convicted of murdering a king, you wouldn't be able to inherit the throne. "But This Dowager never thought that you had long taken in the Right Prime Minister for your own use. Or rather, the Right Prime Minister was placed by your side by His Majesty to support you?"
The influence of the Right Prime Minister at that time wasn't small.
Even though the empress dowager was the empress then and had won over many people, she still didn't have enough power to resist the Right Prime Minister.
More importantly, there was still one more point.
"This one has calculated a thousand times, but it can be considered to be a mistake. Before you entered the palace, you had already made your preparations. The witnesses who were supposed to be the witnesses for you killing the monarch have long since been killed by you. However, you should thank This Dowager for being able to ascend to the throne so quickly. If not, how could you have ascended the throne so early? "
In the past, Her Majesty's plan had been perfect, but now she had underestimated that plan.
She had originally thought that a person who had returned from the Heavenly Light Empire as a proton would not have much ability, but she was still rebelled against by Bai Zhan.
"Are you done?"
The empress dowager revealed everything that had been planned all those years ago.
Bai Zhan Ke listened attentively, but the expression on his face didn't change in the slightest.
"Finished? Haha … It's still too early for you to know how much suffering your mufei suffered. That pair of eyes of hers was dug out by This Dowager after you ascended to the throne.
When the empress dowager mentioned her mother, Bai Zhan's murderous aura burst forth, unable to be concealed any longer.
Her Majesty had thought that Bai Zhan Ke was already seriously injured and was on the verge of death, but she didn't expect him to suddenly stand up and grab her by the neck.
"You, you actually …"
"Humph! You'd better take a good look at the main entrance of the hall. Look at who's standing there!"
The empress dowager's neck was seized by Bai Zhan Ke, but even after seeing the empress dowager's neck being seized, the trusted guards of Bai Linyu remained rooted to the ground, completely motionless.
After Bai Zhan Ke spoke, the empress dowager suddenly felt that something was amiss. She turned her head with difficulty and looked towards the main entrance of the hall.
At this time, besides Bai Lingyu, there was also Hua Mu Jin, Bai Yan, and all of the ministers of Huan Yue standing at the main entrance of the main hall.
The empress dowager sat on the ground in pain and coughed a few times, then looked towards the door of the great hall.
