“It’s been hard on Little Sister Qin today!” Princess Changning waved her hand to set up a barrier, her eyes full of heartache.
“It’s not hard. I’m willing to do anything for His Majesty.” Noble Consort Qin touched the marks on her neck, hoping that Cheng’an would change his mind.
They had been forced into a corner.
If they didn’t counterattack, their life would be in danger.
“I don’t know if that devilish woman will be fooled!” Fang Liuqing’s face was filled with worry.
“Sister Changning, why don’t you just kill them?” Imperial Consort Qin and Fang Liuqing already knew that Princess Changning was a saint cultivator.
In her opinion, a saint cultivator could solve the problem by taking their life, so there was no need to go through so much trouble.
“I told you to use your brain more. If it wasn’t for me protecting you, you silly girl, you would have died a few times already!” Princess Changning’s index finger touched Noble Consort Qin’s smooth forehead twice.
He Chuan had often said to her, “Never be complacent about your current strength”.
She remembered that when she had gone to find Cheng’an the day before the Empress was dethroned, she had not sensed anything wrong.
Later on, she found out from his trusted palace maid that Cheng’an hadn’t been dealing with any political affairs that day. Instead, he had been fooling around with Lana.
As a saint cultivator, she didn’t even sense it!
It proved that the other party was at least a half-step saint cultivator, or a saint cultivator of the same realm.
Now, Cheng’an had eight more Western beauties by his side.
If Changning’s assassination succeeded, it would be fine, but if the assassination failed, it would definitely be reported to Cheng’an.
When she was expelled from the palace, it would be over for her.
“Sigh, does Master know about the situation in the Great Zhou?” Changning’s greatest support was not herself, but the mysterious He Chuan.
She didn’t think He Chuan was that strong back then.
Now that she thought about it after she became a saint cultivator, she seemed to still be very far away from He Chuan’s realm.
He had heard from his father that Jue Lengxin, the leader of the White Lotus Cult, was close to a second-stage saint cultivator, but he wasn’t He Chuan’s match.
“Master? Why didn’t Sister Changning invite your Master over?” Noble Consort Qin’s beautiful eyes suddenly brightened. Princess Changning’s Master was so powerful!
“Master has left the palace for many years. I haven’t been able to contact him!” Princess Changning shook her head helplessly.
When Noble Consort Qin heard that she couldn’t contacted him, she became dejected again.
“This is bad!” Fang Liuqing suddenly recalled a terrifying incident.
“Sister Qing, why are you so shouting? You scared me to death.” Noble Consort Qin patted her ample chest and said with some dissatisfaction.
“Everyone knows that this wicked woman wants to be the Empress, but Grand Tutor Liu has been trying to stop her. If Grand Tutor Liu dies…” Fang Liuqing suddenly thought of this possibility.
Princess Changning was not allowed to meddle in politics, so it was not a problem to protect them, but the matter of suppressing the Empress had always relied on the help of Grand Tutor Liu.
If Grand Tutor Liu were to be killed, wouldn’t that be pushing the boat along with the current?
“She dares. If that wicked woman dares to attack Grand Tutor Liu, I will kill her even at the cost of falling out with Cheng’an!” Princess Changning felt that Lana wasn’t that stupid. If something happened to Grand Tutor Liu, everyone would suspect her.
Grand Tutor Liu was not only the tutor to the Crown Prince of Cheng’an, he was also the tutor to Zhou Shimin.
He was more important than Changning and the Minister of the court.
This was also the reason why Grand Tutor Liu dared to curse at Cheng’an and Lana in public.
“Maybe I’m overthinking it.” Fang Liuqing shook her head. She also felt that the possibility was low.
“Tomorrow, I’ll send a few experts to protect Grand Tutor Liu in secret, just in case.” Princess Changning said.
Unfortunately, they didn’t know that Cheng’an had gradually lost his bottom line. He had personally agreed to Lana’s plan to get rid of Grand Tutor Liu.
Liu Manor.
Grand Tutor Liu was sitting in his study, writing a denunciation about the demoness wreaking havoc in the Imperial Court.
He was prepared to contact students from all over the country and spread the news to everyone.
If everyone in the world opposed this, Cheng’an would not be able to make Lana his Empress!
Squeak.
The door was pushed open, and the maidservants in the manor lowered their heads and placed the ginseng soup on the table.
Grand Tutor Liu flicked his wrist after he had finished writing the denunciation.
“I’m getting old. I’m so tired from writing an article. I’m not far from my coffin. Unfortunately, I’ve failed the late Emperor!” He wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes.
Cheng ‘an had been his proudest student. He had thought that he would be like Zhou Shimin, a diligent and loving sovereign. He had never imagined that he would end up in such a state.
He picked up the ginseng soup and slowly drank it.
“Not good! The old master fainted!” The servant girl shouted.
Soon, the Liu Manor was in chaos. No one paid any attention to the maidservant!
…
The next morning!
Princess Changning hide her aura and left the palace quietly.
He secretly came to the Fang Manor.
Compared to when it was crowded like a market, it was much more deserted now.
She pushed the door open and saw a few ministers who had been dismissed.
“Grand Tutor Liu is dead!” She confirmed again.
“Yes, the funeral was held last night,” Fang Yuanqing nodded, his eyes filled with helplessness.
“I’ll go back and kill that demoness immediately!” Princess Changning’s killing intent soared. She wanted nothing more than to kill Lana immediately.
“Your Highness, don’t be agitated. Grand Tutor Liu’s death was caused by an illness, not a homicide!” Fang Yuanqing quickly called out to Princess Changning.
Even though they all knew that Grand Tutor Liu had been murdered.
But the problem was that several famous coroners in the capital could not find any problems at all.
If there was no evidence that he was poisoned, then Lana couldn’t be blamed for it.
“What should we do now? without Grand Tutor Liu, Cheng’an will definitely make that wicked woman his Empress. By then, it will be difficult to overthrow her!” Princess Changning sat on the chair weakly.
Liuqing had already thought of this yesterday. It was her fault for not sending people to protect Grand Tutor Liu in time.
This was the result of this situation.
“Now is not the time to blame yourself. Grand Tutor Liu has already rushed ahead of us and written a denunciation!” Fang Yuanqing passed the document to Princess Changning.
The fake maidservant had not seen the denunciation that tutor Liu had left behind to attack Lana, or it would have been destroyed.
The denunciation of this scholarly Sage would definitely resonate with all the students in the world.
“There’s no time to lose. We have to spread the news immediately and cause a huge commotion in the capital!” The Commander of the Imperial Army, Qin Yuntian, spoke.
Even though he had been removed from his position, the Imperial Army still listened to his commands.
When the time came, he would use the Imperial Army to spread the news, and he believed that it would quickly reach Cheng’an’s ears.
“Alright, I’ll leave this matter to you. I still have to return to the palace to protect my two younger sisters, so that the demoness won’t have any chance to take advantage of this time!” Princess Changning knew that this was not the time to be sad.
Grand Tutor Liu was already dead, and Lana might make a move on Fang Liuqing and Noble Consort Qin.
Especially Fang Liuqing, because of her support to regain her position as the Empress, her influence was obvious.
Lana, who was in the palace, was the first to hear the news of Grand Tutor Liu’s death. She was prepared to find Cheng’an to fulfill her promise and make her the Empress of the Great Zhou.
At this time, Cheng’an was still sleeping soundly after a night of fun. He didn’t know so many things had happened.
Lana pushed open the door and took off her chiffon. She sprawled herself on Cheng’an, who was sound asleep.
