Chapter 767: You can help with this too? Act according to the situation

~5 min read 803 words

"What?"

"What did Lord Gao just say?"

Wu Zhao was originally pondering, because the impact of this matter was too great; any means would be difficult to catch the Empress Dowager and the Prime Minister in one net and convince the people of the world.

And this matter also involved the Eleventh Imperial Prince. If it was really Xiao Qing occupying the magpie's nest, then the Eleventh Imperial Prince was not only not of dragon seed, but might even be of the Qi Kingdom's bloodline!

Behind this, it would involve a heaven-sized conspiracy!

She had to catch them all in one net, from top to bottom.

But if the Empress Dowager, the Prime Minister, and the Eleventh Imperial Prince were to die one after another within a day, the officials and the vassal kings of the world would definitely exert pressure, and the government would be unstable!

Although Empress Dowager Xiao had great suspicions, relying only on the words of the Lin family and a silenced guard, plus Empress Dowager Xiao's few words to Gao Yang, to get rid of the Prime Minister, the Empress Dowager, and even the Eleventh Imperial Prince, one of the few remaining bloodlines of the royal family—

This price, even she had to be cautious, so she had to figure out the truth of the matter!

Afterward, it would be how to take action!

Wu Zhao felt that the difficult part was here. The real Empress Dowager had a Dragon-Subduing Mole on her back. This concerned the Empress Dowager of a dynasty. If she forced an inspection, first, it would cause a huge commotion, and second, if she guessed wrong, it would startle the snake, which would be a heaven-sized trouble.

Then, Wu Zhao heard Gao Yang's voice...

Wu Zhao subconsciously raised her head and looked at Gao Yang.

Shangguan Wan'er also raised her head in shock, looking at Gao Yang.

Two gazes focused on Gao Yang's handsome face almost at the same time, and Gao Yang even let out a heavy breath, as if he had made up his mind.

"You... help me?"

"Whether there is a mole on the Empress Dowager's body, you help me with this?"

Wu Zhao stared at Gao Yang, her lips somewhat dry, and she asked again, unsure.

This matter, even she, a woman, found it difficult to do, and Gao Yang, a man, just took it on directly?

And this tone even seemed very relaxed.

Gao Yang's old face flushed, and he said, "Emperor, pretend I said nothing; this matter was hasty on my part."

He had seen quite a bit at the time, but he really wasn't sure about this Dragon-Subduing Mole, as he hadn't paid much attention, but it wasn't a big problem; find a time to go to the Empress Dowager's bedchamber again, and it would be clear.

Empress Dowager Xiao was still quite cooperative.

Wu Zhao, however, seemed to understand in an instant.

She stared at Gao Yang, her brows filled with extremely strong oppressive force, "Lord Gao, speak properly. In the Empress Dowager's bedchamber, what else happened?"

At this moment, Wu Zhao's eyes were very serious.

This Gao Yang was so bold when looking at her, and now facing the Empress Dowager, with the Empress Dowager's secret, was he the one being humiliated?

Something is wrong!

Something is one hundred percent wrong.

This scoundrel, he wouldn't be wanting to be my, Wu Zhao's, father emperor, would he?

"Emperor, what is this look? The Emperor treats me so well, and I didn't know the palace secrets before, so how could I be disrespectful to the Empress Dowager!"

"Even when ten thousand Great Chu troops were pressing on the city of Changan, and the Great Chu wanted to kill me, even when hundreds of sword blades grazed my armor, my heart had never been this painful!"

Gao Yang clutched his heart and spoke with pain.

Wu Zhao hesitated for a moment; Gao Yang couldn't have known this secret, and she also suspected the Empress Dowager of having a rebellious heart.

Especially the secret of the Eleventh Imperial Prince, which was why she connected everything. Previously, facing Empress Dowager Xiao, he might have had lustful thoughts, but he shouldn't have had the guts. Could he have dared to take advantage of Empress Dowager Xiao's predicament?

Verbal offense was a capital crime of great disrespect!

Thinking of this, Wu Zhao's tone softened somewhat, and she said, "Lord Gao, I naturally trust Lord Gao, and I didn't mean anything else."

"I am just curious how Lord Gao is going to help me?"

Shangguan Wan'er stared at Gao Yang, having a different view.

This Gao Yang had at least two hundred rebellious bones out of his two hundred and six bones; who in the world could humiliate him? ===== CHAPTER 769 =====
