Chapter 138 The appearance of an empress?
Seeing that the person coming was her brother, Wang Ziyin sighed a few more times. She bit her lower lip and whispered, "Isn't it? And it happened that the Yandong area was taken away. I am really worried."
"Haha, although the Yandong region is vast, it is not that important. As long as we block the Yanmen Pass, the army of the Chao Kingdom will not be able to enter at all."
"The most important thing right now is to get rid of Ying Xuanze. What do you think? Have you come up with a plan? Should we keep Huang Chan or kill him?"
Wang Ziyin smiled coldly and said, "Of course I'll keep him. Even though he's a waste, at least he's loyal to our Wang family. Wouldn't it be a pity to kill him?"
"Brother, rest assured. I have already sent people to find Huang Chan. On the surface, they are expelling him and his followers from the capital, but in reality, they are giving him a chance to take revenge on Ying Xuanze."
"His most beloved son died at the hands of Ying Xuanze. He wishes he could crush Ying Xuanze to dust right now. It would be perfect for him to use him to deal with Ying Xuanze."
"No matter what the result is, it will be good for us. The Yinglong Army...is not all so obedient."
Wang Ziyi narrowed her eyes, and a hint of frost flashed in them.
Wang Yi nodded slightly: "That's great. Your Majesty is young, and the current situation is perfect for us."
"Although Li Yong and his gang are stubborn, they are too small. The future court team will all be ours."
"By the way, Ziyin, is the person you sent reliable? Will Huang Chan really be willing to leave the capital?"
Wang Ziyin smiled and said, "He is someone I trust, and he brought the imperial edict with him. Huang Chan will understand after reading it."
"You and I just need to wait for news. As long as Huang Chan sends out his troops, it will be Ying Xuanze who will be put in a passive position."
"Humph! This is a good opportunity to find out how many troops he has. I don't believe he can really destroy hundreds of thousands of Hu soldiers by himself!"
Wang Yi frowned slightly and asked, "Do you think there are other forces behind Ying Xuanze?"
"Is there any other possibility? Most of the Tiger Soldiers died in the jungle of South Vietnam. Who else could have helped him except for other foreign forces?"
Wang Ziyin slammed the table with her palm: "You are a bunch of fearless people. You dare to go against Daying. You must be tired of living!"
"Brother, send out scouts from the Shenji Camp to investigate this matter and see which foreign country Ying Xuanze had contact with after arriving in Xiliang."
"We'll settle the accounts once this matter is settled!" She slammed the table again, and this time even Wang Yi's body shook.
He increasingly felt that his sister was gradually transforming into an empress. Throughout the history of Daying, there were several empresses dowagers who controlled the government and handled state affairs.
But without exception, they all returned their power after the emperor's coming-of-age ceremony, returned to the harem and no longer interfered in state affairs.
But his sister is different. He can see that she is ambitious. Everything she is doing now is to monopolize power and replace the court team with her own confidants.
In other words, as long as she has the right to speak, she can become the first empress of Daying at any time!
By then, it will be truly unprecedented and unparalleled.
Thinking of this, Wang Yi's heart tightened, and he actually felt a little scared? If that time really came, would this sister still treat him like this now?
"Since you have arranged for someone to go to the General's Mansion, I will go back too. Remember to send any news to my house."
After saying that, Wang Yi turned around and was about to leave. Wang Ziyan just watched him leave with a smile.
"Brother, have a safe journey."
Wang Yi paused, but he didn't say anything else. He continued walking until he disappeared around the corner of the corridor.
......
General's Mansion.
As soon as Zishang walked into the yard, he heard a man roaring from inside, his voice mixed with anger.
"Ying Xuanze! I'm going to chop this bastard to pieces!" Huang Chan roared and threw everything in the study to the ground.
"How dare you! How dare you kill my son! And my elite soldiers of the Yinglong Army! They are my brothers who have been with me through thick and thin! How dare you!"
That was 100,000 elite soldiers of the Yinglong Army! How could they be completely annihilated by Ying Xuanze?
Could it be that Ying Xuanze had not only tens of thousands of troops but hundreds of thousands? But where did he get so many troops? This was totally irrational!
What made him most angry was that it was Cao Mengyi who revealed the entire plan. This retainer whom he trusted actually betrayed him.
"Cao Mengyi is such a beast! I brought him back from the border and trained him. I gave him soldiers and horses so that he could have the opportunity to make meritorious deeds. But now he bites me back. He is such a heartless person!"
Huang Chan increasingly felt that the destruction of the 100,000 Yinglong troops and the death of Huang Yan were closely related to Cao Mengyi.
Upon closer thought, Huang Chan was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. He had raised such an ungrateful person!
At this moment, the housekeeper walked into the room and bowed, saying, "Master, someone has come from the palace. It seems to be a confidant of the Queen Mother."
Hearing that it was the Queen Mother's confidant, Huang Chan immediately calmed down and said loudly: "Let him in."
The butler retreated and went outside the courtyard, taking Zishang into the study.
"General Huang Chan, I heard your voice outside Gangzi's yard. It seems that you hate Ying Xuanze very much."
Huang Chan looked up when he heard the noise, and seeing that the person coming was a young pretty boy, he didn't intend to give him a good look.
He said in a deep voice with a fierce look on his face: "Are you really a close confidant of the Queen Mother? You are a little young."
"That means I have the ability to become the Queen Mother's confidant, and the general should have heard that one should not judge a person by his appearance..." Zishang said with a smile.
Huang Chan snorted coldly, motioned for Zishang to find a seat and then told the butler to make tea.
"What's your name, young friend?" he asked.
"General, you can just call me Zishang. My life was saved by the Queen Mother, so I only deserve a name." Zishang still had a smile on his face.
Huang Chan, who had been in the workplace for many years, smelled something strange. He felt that the relationship between the young man named Zishang and the empress dowager might not be an ordinary relationship between superiors and subordinates.
So he looked him up and down carefully a few more times, thinking that the boy was indeed good-looking and any ordinary woman would be attracted to him upon seeing him.
Although the Queen Mother is a mother, she is only in her early twenties, and her needs in that regard will only be more, not less.
What's more, the emperor was still young and had no control over the empress dowager's keeping of concubines, so Huang Chan just sneered in his heart and did not take Zishang seriously at all.
"It seems that young friend Zishang is treated well by the Queen Mother." Huang Chan said with a joking tone, and then said, "What is the purpose of your visit to my house this time?"
Zi Shang was not angry at Huang Chan's sarcasm but said in a nonchalant tone: "I came here for Ying Xuanze."
Huang Chan was furious when he heard this and said, "He killed my son. I will grind his bones to dust!"
