Chapter 22 Queen Wang’s Secret

After hearing this, Queen Wang opened her eyes wide and looked at Zhao Wujiang with extraordinary brightness.

I picked up a treasure this time. This is God's blessing. Her breathing was a little rapid, and she valued Zhao Wujiang more and more. She secretly thought about adding more chips and tied Zhao Wujiang tightly to her side.

"In just less than a month, you were able to gain a new official position, and even became the invigilator of the imperial examination. Eunuch Zhao, I am indeed right about you!"

Queen Wang stood up and took out a thumb-sized, round jade-colored bead from the dressing box. She frowned with some distress, but handed it to Zhao Wujiang.

"Eunuch Zhao, this pearl is bright at night, and I will give it to you today."

Zhao Wujiang took the Night Pearl, put it into his inner sleeve, and was about to say thank you.

I heard the little eunuch's shrill voice coming from outside: "Master Changsun is here!"

Damn it, Changsun Wuji, what is he doing here at this time?

"Queen, what about me?"

Queen Wang looked panicked at this time. Only she knew about her recruitment of Zhao Wujiang.

Although she and Changsun Wuji were allies, she had no intention of telling Changsun Wuji.

"Eunuch Zhao, hide quickly!"

"ah?"

Where the hell am I hiding? Zhao Wujiang looked left and right, but there was no place to hide.

When Queen Wang heard the footsteps coming from outside, she felt panicked. She looked at her phoenix bed and gritted her teeth and said, "Eunuch Zhao, hide on my bed."

Damn it, this woman is decisive enough. Zhao Wujiang stepped onto the bed quickly, and Queen Wang stepped forward and put down the bed curtains.

Afterwards, Queen Wang hurriedly walked to the dressing table and sat down.

"Old minister Sun Wuji, please see your empress."

At this moment, Changsun Wuji's loud voice came from outside the door. He always walked at the pace of a dragon and spoke with a loud voice.

Queen Wang stabilized her mind and spoke slowly: "Come in."

Changsun Wuji answered and pushed the door open and entered.

He first glanced at Queen Wang who was in front of the dressing table, then walked towards the guest stool and sat down.

Standing on the phoenix, Zhao Wujiang could smell the fragrance from the tip of his nose. He looked thoughtful, probably guessing what Changsun Wuji had come to Qifeng Palace for.

Changsun Wuji's voice first came from outside the bed curtains.

"Your Majesty is really in a good mood. She is still doing her makeup indifferently. She doesn't seem to be in a hurry. Does your Majesty have any clever ideas to reverse the current decline?"

Changsun Wuji's voice was slightly mocking.

"It's a big taboo for the harem to interfere in politics, so what's the use of me being anxious? I don't want to rely on you, uncle, to speak kind words for me in court affairs."

Changsun Wuji snorted coldly, and the atmosphere became a little tense.

"Our emperor is no longer the same as when he first ascended the throne. He has grown up and wants to take back some of his power from my uncle."

Changsun Wuji sighed and continued:

"He wants to cut off the line between you and me. Deposing the queen is just the beginning. Are you not prepared?"

Queen Wang was silent and looked unhappy.

"Alas..." Changsun Wuji snorted coldly and said in a deep voice: "Now some courtiers have been won over, and the situation is not good. I can only try my best to delay the emperor's decision-making."

Changsun Wuji stood up slowly, glanced at Queen Wang who didn't respond, and shook his head in disappointment.

"Old minister resigned."

Changsun Wuji walked out and finally said: "Our emperor really hides himself deeply and endures it. You say you are the most powerful person in the country, but he insists on not touching you at all.

Concubine Xiao Shu gave birth to dragon seeds one after another, endangering your status.

But you just made a bad move and helped him welcome Wu Zetian back.

It’s fine now.”

Changsun Wuji left, and Queen Wang sat silently in front of the dressing table. Her stunning face was reflected in the bronze mirror, and her expression could not be clearly seen.

Zhao Wujiang was on Fengtao and did not come out immediately. He was afraid that Changsun Wuji would just kill him and it would be over.

At this moment, mechanical sounds came from his mind.
