On their wedding night, she burned down the Prince Regent's palace.

Chapter 29 Find out the details
Shen Yanliu is in his thirties.

Her charm is still there, and there are almost no traces of time on her face.

When the late emperor passed away, Shen Yanliu was only in her 20s. With the support of her mother's family, she ceremoniously ascended the throne holding the infant emperor in her arms.

Since then, Shen Yanliu has been listening to politics behind the curtain for nearly ten years.

The Queen Mother's Party, headed by the Shen family, is growing day by day in both the government and the opposition, and now covers the sky with only one hand.

If it weren't for Feng Wuming, the regent, the world would have changed his surname to Shen long ago.

This is also the reason why the Queen Mother and her party regard Feng Wuming as a major concern.

But Feng Wuming had military power in his hands, and he had the Zhenxi, Zhenyuan, and Pingnan armies on the surface, and secretly there was an organization like Ye Mu, so he could easily compete with the Shen family in the court.

More importantly, regardless of whether Feng Wuming has real royal blood, his surname is Feng, and his identity as regent is also conferred by the late emperor.

There is only one little emperor under the control of the Shen family. If anything happens, Feng Wuming will always be the orthodox one in first place.

To put it bluntly, if he wanted to, he could drag the little emperor off the throne and sit on his own.

Every time she thought of this, Shen Yanliu would feel deeply afraid. She often had nightmares like this in the middle of the night. She wished she could get rid of Feng Wuming as soon as possible.

"So, the woman who detoxified Feng Wuming is the Xuanmen master mentioned in the court recently?"

Shen Yanliu really couldn't believe that there was such a woman in the world, and he had never heard of such a person before.

"Do you know where this woman came from?"

"My subordinates went to check specifically. This woman's name is Wang Xiao'e. She always has two children with her, a boy and a girl. They are probably twins."

Hearing the name "Wang Xiao'e", Shen Yanliu couldn't help but frowned.

It's no wonder, after all, the name Wang Xiao'e really doesn't seem like a name that a person with special skills should have. There is a kind of... sloppiness in everything.

It sounds like a fake name at first glance, and it's very careless to get it.

"The strange thing is that my subordinates can't find anything about this woman's life experience. It's like she appeared in the capital out of thin air."

"What?!" Hearing this, Shen Yanliu raised his hand and slapped the chair hard, his embroidered eyebrows stood up coldly, showing no anger or authority.

"So, you haven't completed even the slightest bit of the tasks assigned to you by the Ai family?"

When the subordinates heard this, they quickly lowered their heads in fear and complained endlessly.

"Forgive me, the Queen Mother! I know that I am not doing my job well, but this woman is too mysterious. Even if we use all the connections we can mobilize, we can't figure out her background, because her past is completely blank."

As a result, Shen Yanliu's heart became even more unsettled. He couldn't find anything, which was the most terrifying thing.

She lowered her eyes and thought for a moment before continuing to ask: "Then do you know what the relationship between Wang Xiao'e and Feng Wuming is?"

The subordinate sweated from Shen Yanliu's long silence just now, did not dare to neglect, and continued to answer truthfully:
"Wang Xiao'e took the initiative to submit her name to the Prince Regent's Palace on her own initiative. Before that, the two of them probably didn't know each other, because their subordinates discovered that the Prince Regent himself seemed to be investigating Wang Xiao'e's life experience."

"Oh? That would be fun."

Shen Yanliu raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this and said meaningfully.

"Come here, go and invite your brother. The Ai family has important matters to discuss with him."

After receiving the news, Shen Chengshu immediately rushed to Jiaofang Palace.Shen Chengshu is the eldest son of Prime Minister Shen, and he and Queen Mother Shen Yanliu are brothers and sisters of the same mother.

"Wang Xiao'e announced her name and applied for the regent's palace, just for fame and fortune. What Feng Wuming can give, our Shen family may not be able to give."

Shen Yanliu said to Shen Chengshu while thinking.

"What does the Queen Mother mean, that we can win over this Wang Xiao'e? But she is just a woman who only knows some medical skills and magic. We don't rely on doctors and Taoist priests to rule the world..."

Shen Chengshu was not very happy when he heard this. He was the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Palace and was awarded the title of Duke. What a noble status he had.

You actually asked him to win over a woman?
Shen Yanliu's mouth stiffened when he heard this, and a cold look flashed in his eyes.

"A woman? Brother, don't forget, the Ai family is also a woman."

The Shen family has always had a tradition of favoring boys over girls. Most of the men in the Shen family look down on women, believing that women can only take care of their husbands and raise children in the back house, and that women should not interfere in power disputes in the court.

But it was very ironic that Shen Yanliu appeared just when the Shen family was declining.

It is obviously the family that looks down on women the most, but in the end, it relies on a woman to control the government in the court.

Deep down, Shen Chengshu despised women, but no matter what he thought in his heart, he did not dare to show it in front of Shen Yanliu.

Because everything he has now depends on Shen Yanliu.

"What are you talking about, Queen Mother? How do you compare yourself to ordinary women?"

Shen Chengshu smiled, with a bit of flattery in his tone, and supplemented it.

Shen Yanliu knew that her brother had always been headstrong, and she knew his true thoughts clearly, but there was no need to care about him at this time, so she sneered in her heart.

"Brother, you have to know that the poison in Feng Wuming's body has been almost eliminated by this woman. Don't you and I still know how cruel the poison is?"

The two people looked at each other, full of conspiracy.

The Shen brothers and sisters knew very well where the poison in Feng Wuming's body came from.

"The poisons in Feng Wuming can be counted by all the people in the world on one hand. How powerful do you think this woman is?"

Shen Chengshu finally sat up straight, with a hint of fear on his face.

They are now able to compete with Feng Wuming, and the poison is indispensable, but if the poison is detoxified, what can he do to control Feng Wuming?

"Another point is that Wang Xiao'e is a member of Xuanmen, and her reputation has spread throughout the court. There are countless officials, big and small, who want to ask her to do things, and they all want to send greetings to the Regent's Palace. Feng Wuming's fundamental purpose is probably to form a clique. , deal with our Shen family."

Feng Wuming's poison is slowly getting better. Before he returns to the court, he must win over people's hearts and stabilize his power.

In the eyes of the Shen family, these things made them as anxious as ants on a hot pot.

"If a person like Wang Xiao'e cannot be used by us, then we must not let him stay with Feng Wuming." At this point, Shen Yanliu flashed a cruel look.

He took charge of Fengyin at the age of 20, and then stayed in charge of the government for more than ten years. Even Shen Chengshu, the elder brother, couldn't help but feel afraid of the murderous momentum developed by Shen Yanliu in his high position.

Her voice was low and she said word by word:

"Either win over him or get rid of him. Send Qianji Sect to deal with this matter quickly."
