The famous restaurant in the capital was bustling with people, and there was the sound of pipa playing upstairs. The storyteller on the first floor told the story vividly, and the sound of pipa played in the ears, adding a bit of elegance.

In a private room upstairs, Mr. Chen and several colleagues were sitting together, with fine delicacies and sweet-scented osmanthus wine on the dining table.

Master Chen took a sip, put down the light green wine glass, and frowned.

"Everyone from the Shen family who was an official in the court was dismissed from their posts overnight and returned to their hometowns in fine clothes. What does your majesty mean?"

"Prime Minister Shen has just died, and the first seven days have not passed. His Majesty dismissed the Shen family from their official positions. It would be too ruthless and unjust. Prime Minister Shen's death was also unclear. His Majesty bullied the Shen family in this way. It is really chilling. "

"Prime Minister Shen has hard work even if he has no merit."

The ministers on the side saw that his face was not very good, and they thought about it and said: "The matter of Prime Minister Shen is indeed strange."

Someone retorted: "But hasn't Shen Chengshu already said this? Prime Minister Shen died of natural causes..."

Before the man finished speaking, Mr. Chen snorted coldly.

"I have been to the Imperial Hospital with him before. Prime Minister Shen definitely did not die of a sudden illness. In front of His Majesty, Nephew Shen will naturally say what Your Majesty likes to hear. Otherwise, the Shen family may not be dismissed as simple as dismissal, but He was exiled on a certain crime."

One of the adults raised his eyebrows and lowered his voice.

"Master Chen, do you mean that the death of Prime Minister Shen is related to His Majesty?"

Is it really His Majesty's mastermind?
Mr. Chen quickly denied: "I didn't say that. Don't blame me. I just raised reasonable doubts."

Seeing that he was eager to clear up the relationship with him, everyone laughed and said nothing.

Whether it is His Majesty's evil hand or not, I really can't tell.

Your Majesty and the Shen family have not dealt with each other before, and the Shen family has no protection. Your Majesty may remember all the things the Queen Mother did to your Majesty in the past.

The emperor was already very suspicious.

Your Majesty is now sitting on the throne, but you must always be on guard against the Queen Mother and the Shen family.

When the former emperor was on the throne, the power of the government was in the hands of the Queen Mother. After the death of the previous emperor, it was impossible for the Queen Mother to really hand over all her powers.

Your Majesty is probably worried that the Queen Mother will unite with the Shen family to rebel. The Shen family is the Queen Mother's biggest backer.

Without the Shen family, the Empress Dowager was left alone. Even if she wanted to stir up a storm, she could not stir up a storm.

Your Majesty cannot directly touch the Queen Mother, so you can only operate on the Shen family.

Everyone was drinking sweet-scented osmanthus wine, eating delicacies, chatting and laughing, but their thoughts were not here.

At the same time, Cining Palace.

Wen Yufu did not wait for the good news about Shen Hongyu, but waited for the news of his death and Feng Wuming's treatment of the Shen family.

Whether it was precious porcelain or valuable vases in Wen Yufu's palace, she used them all to vent her anger and dropped them to the ground into a pile of debris.

Wen Yufu ran over the debris with an expressionless face. Wen Yufu couldn't get rid of his anger. With a flash of spiritual power, the debris on the ground turned into foam.

What a good Shen Hongyu, he is really loyal to Feng Wuming. He promised him glory, wealth, and the throne, but he would die in return?
What's the use of dying to clarify one's ambition?Didn't Feng Wuming let the Shen family go?There is no Shen family member left in the court.

She sat on the couch, her face gloomy and ferocious.

Feng Wuming wanted to eradicate all her influence. Without the Shen family, she would lose an effective assistant.

The more Wen Yufu thought about it, the angrier she became. She underestimated Shen Hongyu's loyalty to Feng Wuming. She shouldn't have let him go back and think about it in the first place. She should have exchanged some control pills from the system and turned Shen Hongyu and Shen Chengshu into her. A puppet that listens to her orders.

Wen Yufu called the system in her heart. The system did not show up for the past two days, which made her a little strange.The system that ignored her in the past few days called out today, but its voice sounded a little weak.

"what's up?"

"The Shen family is unwilling to help me rebel. That bitch Feng Wuming dismissed everyone in the Shen family. He wants to uproot the Shen family's power. Is he... going to attack me? "

The system did not answer her and told her: "You have had too little luck recently. I need luck to help you."

The last time it extracted Ye Zhiyu's soul, it was attacked by something unknown, and now it is a little weak.

You must absorb your luck to replenish it.

"What can I do now? I have been staying in Cining Palace all day, and I have already extracted everything I can..." Wen Yufu frowned, and before he could finish his complaint, the system interrupted him coldly.

"If Cining Palace doesn't have it, why don't you look for it somewhere else?"

"You are really stupid. If you want to be the emperor, you also need to win the hearts and minds of the people. Shen Hongyu's death and the dismissal of everyone in the Shen family. These two things will make the people in the court fluctuate. This is a good opportunity for you to win over people's hearts. You want to While winning the hearts and minds of ministers, we must also win the hearts and minds of the people. Those who win the hearts and minds of the people will win the world."

"Whoever loses the support of the people will lose the world. Without the Shen family, you have to let the people protect you and help you ascend to the throne."

Wen Yufu's eyes lit up.

Yes, how could she forget that since ancient times, those who win the hearts of the people win the world.

She can make the people treat her with respect and respect. Even if she rebels, the people will think that she is a good rebel and support and love her.

In this way, she could not only get the throne, but also win the hearts and minds of the people, killing two birds with one stone.

Shen Yanliu's previous reputation was not very good. She had to find a way to restore Shen Yanliu's bad reputation first.

The fastest and most effective way to restore your reputation is to do good deeds and let others be grateful and know that you are sincerely repentant.

Wen Yufu narrowed his eyes and quickly had a plan in his mind.

She wants to pray for the country.

Wen Yufu called the palace maid and asked the palace maid to prepare a simple and elegant dress for her. The material should not be too good, just what ordinary people wear.

The Queen Mother has a delicate body, and all the gorgeous clothes are made of fine materials and are very comfortable to wear. Suddenly she has to prepare a set of clothes that ordinary people wear. Can the Queen Mother's skin bear it?
The palace maid was suspicious, but she didn't say anything out loud, and went to help her prepare clothes.

Wen Yufu went to bed early and waited for tomorrow to get up and go to the Great Buddha Temple.

She is not going to make a sedan chair tomorrow, but will walk to the Big Buddha Temple. This can also show her sincerity, and let the people know that she is praying for the country, which will win their favor.

The next day.

Wen Yufu washed and changed clothes under the service of the palace ladies.

"Wear the clothes that Aijia asked you to prepare yesterday."

"Yes." The palace maid nodded and took the clothes she prepared yesterday. Cuinong took a surprised look.

Did the Queen Mother really prepare it for herself?

They had a private chat last night and agreed that the Queen Mother prepared it for others, but they did not expect that the Queen Mother really prepared it for themselves.

The Queen Mother wouldn't even take a look at such coarse clothes, so it's strange to wear them now. (End of chapter)
