"Damn it!"
Empress Dowager Yan Xi's heart was seized with shock and fury, her teeth tightly clenched!
Prince Ning's move was utterly ruthless.
If not handled well, the entire Great Chu Dynasty could be completely overturned!
From then on, the throne would change hands, and Great Chu would undergo a drastic transformation, becoming a pawn in someone else's game!
"When was this news spread? How many people know about it now?"
Empress Dowager Yan Xi asked, clinging onto a last thread of hope.
If not many people knew yet, she would prefer to risk the chaos in Great Chu to mobilize the Holy City's army and eradicate Prince Ning's faction entirely!
The reason she had not done so earlier was that even as the Empress Dowager, she was always an outsider!
Annihilating Royal Bloodline could stir controversies!
Furthermore, Prince Ning's faction was not weak. If they seized the opportunity to strike back, it could place her in an even more precarious situation!
But now that Prince Ning had been driven to such desperate extremes, Empress Dowager Yan Xi could no longer concern herself with such matters.
However, as soon as she had spoken, the general shook his head and said, "It's too late. Empress Dowager, Prince Ning has really gone all out this time!"
"His message was directly disseminated to all quarters!"
"Now, the major cities of the Four Great Holy Dynasties are all aware of this!"
Prince Ning has completely cast his die, acting without any scruples, naturally leaving no time for Empress Dowager Yan Xi to cover things up.
When the general received the news, it had already spread all over.
That's why he rushed into the palace, even disregarding the Empress Dowager's decree that no one should approach the Inner Hall at will, urgently requesting an audience from outside.
The impact of this matter was simply too great!
If not handled carefully, the Great Chu Dynasty would be at risk of complete collapse!
While Empress Dowager Yan Xi and the general were discussing, Luo Qingtong and Old Master Luo were behind the screen listening to everything clearly.
"My goodness! Prince Ning is really ruthless in his actions! To spread such a thing out, your grandmother is in trouble now!" Little Fragrant Pig said in Luo Qingtong's mind.
"Whether it's trouble or rather an opportunity, it remains to be seen!" A smile began to form on Luo Qingtong's lips.
Empress Dowager seeking a spouse?
Isn't this a ready-made opportunity for her grandfather?
Otherwise, with her grandfather's temperament, it's hard to tell how long he would have needed to negotiate with Empress Dowager Yan Xi!
After all, although misunderstandings were resolved, with the Empress Dowager's current identity, for her grandfather to win her over is not an easy task!
But now…
Everything seems to be resolved!
Luo Qingtong thought, and immediately turned her head to look at Old Master Luo beside her.
As expected, she saw the previously proud and smug old master now grinding his teeth, looking extremely agitated and uneasy.
After the general left, Old Master Luo suddenly burst out from behind the screen, rushing over to Empress Dowager Yan Xi and said, "Xi'er!"
He cried out once, then held his breath, unable to continue.
He wanted to urge Empress Dowager Yan Xi to disregard the affairs of Great Chu and leave with him. This way, even if Prince Ning wanted to use the issue of seeking a spouse to stir chaos in Great Chu, it would be impossible!
If the Empress Dowager of Great Chu disappeared, who would he seek as a spouse?
But… the person before him was the Empress Dowager of Great Chu!
The most honored and glorious woman in the Great Chu Holy Dynasty.
Adored and revered by the masses! All ministers kneel in awe and respect!
In the first half of his life, he caused her to suffer so much, and now that she had attained honor, should she give up this supreme status to return to Dongli and become just a small Lady of the Marquis Mansion?
