Chapter 313 Bloody Rain, Xuanyuan Yuheng
Shen Shi.
Hall of the Heart, the Emperor's Bedroom.
The empress sat upright on the Huanghuali wooden chair, her eyebrows trembled constantly, and her face gradually became stained with frost.
In front of her, Jia Shiwu, wearing a dark blue robe and a sky-blue mask, was reporting Zhao Wujiang's recent whereabouts.
When Jia Shiwu talked about Zhao Wujiang's greedy collection of benefits from the Imperial Hospital and assisting in reselling medicinal materials, the empress was so angry that her body trembled. Zhao Wujiang's image was shattered in her heart and turned into disappointment.
"Go down."
The empress's tone was deeply exhausted, and she leaned limply on the chair.
Since the death of the previous emperor and the beginning of her ascension to the throne, the imperial power gradually declined. Daxia faced a storm of internal and external troubles. She had no brothers and sisters and no younger generations, but only one person was alone and hard to support the foundation laid by her ancestors.
Later she met Zhao Wujiang. Although Zhao Wujiang was not serious but righteous, she was righteous. Although she didn't say anything, she had already regarded Zhao Wujiang as her partner in her heart.
But this partner was swallowed by greed and betrayed her.
"Hmph..." The empress cried and her eyes were red and covered with blood.
"Squeak..."
The door was pushed open, Zhao Wujiang walked in with a wooden box and a wallet. When he saw the empress's appearance, he said in confusion:
"Oh, Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? I was confused by those old stubborn ministers?"
"Zhao Wujiang!" The empress sat upright slowly and restored her majesty. Blood trembled in her beautiful eyes:
"Where were you going today?"
"Me?" Zhao Wujiang frowned slightly, and he felt Xuanyuan Jing angry:
"I'm going to resell medicinal materials!"
"Bang!"
The empress slapped the table hard and roared:
"Do you say these four words so lightly?
I didn’t reward you, right? You are so greedy and you still have to resell medicinal materials to embezzle the national treasury! Ah?"
The more the empress cursed, the more angry she became. She stood up, stepped forward in front of Zhao Wujiang in two steps, and pushed Zhao Wujiang hard:
"You are a seven-foot man, handsome, Lavida, who speaks so nicely on your daily life, but you do such a dirty thing!"
Zhao Wujiang staggered and fell to the ground. He did not get up, but sat on the ground, staring at the empress with clear eyes, holding a smile that was calm and unscathed, and said softly:
"I understand, Your Majesty will scold you. The more you scold, the more you feel distressed."
Zhao Wujiang understood that this woman had been lonely for too long. She kept the secret alone, had no friends, and was walking on thin ice all day long. She was Xuanyuan Jing's only special.
The empress's heart trembled, her nose was slightly sour, and she collapsed on the chair.
"I... want to treat you as a friend, but you disappointed me..."
"That's because you were disappointed too hasty."
"What?"
Zhao Wujiang's mouth was in a bright curve, and he said slowly:
"Do you still remember the Loulan Gu incident? Whether it was Dugu Yihe's letter or my discovery, it made me suspect that there were many heresies in this harem.
Chen Zhenghua's death and I succeeded as the chief executive. These two incidents were a coincidence, giving me the opportunity to contact the forces behind the scenes. Today, the reselling of medicinal materials is just a superficial matter.
Through this incident, I have confirmed some ideas, but they still need to be verified..."
The empress listened to Zhao Wujiang's story, and her heart was sore, "You are investigating this matter for me..."
"No." Zhao Wujiang's eyes gradually became sharper, like a quick knife:
"And my third uncle!
I can't become their own person in a short period of time, but I can become their partner and get closer to the truth step by step!"
"you......"
The empress wanted to say something but stopped. She wanted to tell her why Zhao Wujiang didn't tell her in advance, but soon felt guilty in her heart, and she still blamed herself for not fully trusting Zhao Wujiang...
"Okay!" Zhao Wujiang got up and slapped the dust: "Don't be as calm as a girl."
The empress was furious in an instant: "Zhao Wujiang!"
"Yes, that's it, it's more majestic." Zhao Wujiang threw the money bag on the table, and gold and silver notes fell, and he waved his hand:
