Chapter 458

Changancheng.

Imperial Palace.

Wu Zhao stood by the window with her hands behind her back. She wore a black pure-blood dragon robe that wrapped around her graceful figure, and the dragon patterns embroidered with gold thread flickered faintly in the dim hall, like a coiled giant beast wanting to break out of the clothes.

She held a bright yellow memorial in her hand and said with emotion.

"Two peaches kill three warriors, what a top-tier open conspiracy."

"Using two royal cooperation plaques for White Jade Sugar as bait, causing the three-family alliance to suspect each other, all bringing out their greatest sincerity."

"And then using the situation of the seven kingdoms and the status of merchants in war to induce the Xie family to join the entire clan."

"The methods of my Minister of Revenue in business are truly miraculous."

Wu Zhao's cold voice rang out in the hall, echoing slowly.

Immediately after, the entire hall fell into a huge silence.

"Your Majesty, you seem to have something on your mind."

Beside her, Miaoyu asked curiously, breaking the silence in the hall.

"After Chu Qingluan's value is squeezed dry, she will sooner or later be returned to Great Chu. I sent Chu Qingluan to the Duke of Ding Prefecture, firstly to reward Gao Yang, and secondly to ensure there is no room for maneuver between the Chu Kingdom and Gao Yang."

"How was I to know that little girl Wan'er had an appointment with Gao Yang tomorrow? How am I supposed to explain this to her..."

Wu Zhao was somewhat annoyed.

Beside her, Miaoyu saw this and said.
