"Mother, isn't it too dangerous for you to do this?"
"Gui Zhi, how many years have you been with the mourning family" Empress Dowager Liu, who was tightly wrapped in a black robe and skirt, did not answer the rhetorical question, listening to her tone, she seemed to be in a pretty good mood.
"Back to Niangniang, the slave has been with Niangniang for thirty years."
From the day she walked out of the female secret guard training camp, she was taken by Empress Dowager Liu at a glance and became her shadow-like existence.
The people who live in the palace, except for those with poor family backgrounds and who don't have the ability to stand up, even if there are not many secret guards around them, there are always one or two.
Just as Empress Dowager Liu has a secret guard dedicated to protecting her safety, the existence of this secret guard is just a secret that is not a secret, and the first emperor did not care about it, so Emperor Xuan naturally turned a blind eye.
In the past, the existence of those secret guards behind Empress Dowager Liu was to support her son, that is, Emperor Xuan successfully ascended the throne as emperor, but the first emperor took measures to let her go, and felt that no matter how ambitious she was a woman, she still had to rely on her son after all.
Who would have thought that with the passage of time, Empress Dowager Liu's ambition for power has become bigger and bigger, and it has reached the point of trying to control the emperor to control the entire Jinfeng Kingdom, if he had known that there would be such a day, the first emperor would not let Empress Dowager Liu's secret guard survive to this day no matter what.
Before Empress Han died, the mother-son relationship between Emperor Xuan and Empress Dowager Liu was still very good, and Emperor Xuan didn't like his mother who was bent on planning for himself, but he couldn't resent everything she had done for him.
Until Emperor Xuan's most beloved woman, Empress Han, was forced to death step by step, Emperor Xuan couldn't kill his mother with his own hands, and the mother-son relationship between them couldn't go back to the past, he couldn't do anything to Empress Dowager Liu, but he could no longer forgive Empress Dowager Liu.
Emperor Xuan's forbearance for many years, until King Han relieved the poison in his body gradually broke out, he first deposed Queen Pang with thunderous means, and sent her into the cold palace to let her survive and die, and then strike while the iron was hot, and quickly gathered the rights that were scattered, one ring after another, and hit those who were against him by surprise.
During this period, not to mention that the rights in the hands of Pang Taishi were taken back a lot by Emperor Xuan, even a few other relatives who were bent on helping their grandson to seize the throne, Emperor Xuan was not soft on them, although it failed to hurt their foundation, but it also hurt part of their vitality, and they were afraid that they would not be able to jump up in a short time.
Aside from these difficult and powerful helps, the power in the hands of the crown prince, King Ming, King Wu and others was also hit hard, and Emperor Xuan did not relent, and vigorously withdrew the power in his hands to the greatest extent to his own hands, making his passive situation active.
For Empress Dowager Liu, Emperor Xuan gave her opportunities again and again, and with the end of Emperor Xuan's last two chances, Emperor Xuan was completely dead to Empress Dowager Liu's mother.
It turns out that compared to power, his biological son is really nothing.
In order not to make the Empress Dowager Liu make mistakes again and again, how could Emperor Xuan not fight the idea of the secret guard in the hands of the Empress Dowager Liu, but it is a pity that the Empress Dowager Liu watched the secret trump card in her hand very closely, and looked at it more important than her life, and Emperor Xuan did not get any advantage in several battles.
However, Empress Dowager Liu's secret guards are not as valuable as Emperor Xuan in terms of numbers, and the number of people who have lost money after several battles is not a few, and the number of that secret guard is still very few today.
It's not that Empress Dowager Liu doesn't want to add fresh blood to her dark forces, but Emperor Xuan keeps an eye on it, and these are not visible, Empress Dowager Liu didn't think about standing on the opposite side of Emperor Xuan, so the number of secret guards under her is decreasing day by day, although it is extremely painful, but she can only endure it again and again.
And this Gui Zhi is also a figure in Empress Dowager Liu's secret guard, and his ability is very outstanding, which is highly valued by Empress Dowager Liu.
Over the years, Empress Dowager Liu's secret guards have been handed over to Gui Zhi to work in the shadows, and she herself has always been hidden in the palace, protecting the safety of Empress Dowager Liu at all times, but she has never been summoned by Empress Dowager Liu, and no one has ever discovered her existence.
This time, when Empress Dowager Liu left the palace, she didn't bring any henchmen around her, so she only brought Gui Zhi alone.
She still remembers what her identity is, if the news that she left the palace and came to the Taishi Mansion spread for a little bit, the consequences would be unimaginable, and there would be bad things if there were too many people.
"It's been thirty years, you said that people can have thirty years in this life" Gui Zhi just looked at the Empress Dowager Liu who was talking to herself silently, her lips moved but she didn't say anything.
The master's mind is not something she can figure out, and she doesn't bother to spend that brain guessing left and right, just do what she should do.
"You can be regarded as the group of people who have been with the mourning family for the longest time."
Nowadays, there are not many old people who can stay.
In this world, maybe anyone can betray her, but with this Gui Zhi in front of her, Empress Dowager Liu believes that she will never betray her.
"Do you say that the choice of the mourning family today is right or wrong" Sometimes when there is no one around, Empress Dowager Liu will keep asking herself, is what she is pursuing wrong Is what she did wrong?
Her choice was right or wrong She felt very confused, and she desperately tried to clear the fog that shrouded her, but she couldn't do it.
Ambition, desire, greed, these things she can't let go, step by step push her further.
"What is right and what is wrong, the slave does not know."
Seeing that Empress Dowager Liu was really persistent waiting for her answer, after being silent for a long time, Gui Zhi opened her mouth and said.
"Hehe, then you tell the mourning family, what do you know?"
"Back to Niangniang, there is no right or wrong in the world of slaves and maids, only obey orders and disobey orders, Niangniang will do whatever slaves and maids say, as for other slaves and maids, they will never think about it."
Having been taught how to be a good secret guard for as long as she can remember, she knew exactly what her mission was, and she didn't think about changing anything.
"Your loyalty to the mourning family, the mourning family has never doubted."
"Not everything in the world can be thought of, right and wrong are just a thought, the world sees right and wrong, because of their position and the angle of looking at things differently, ten people have ten views, hundreds of people have a hundred opinions, how can Niang Niang expect everyone to be the same, everything is obedient to their own heart, isn't it good?"
"Hahaha, a good one to follow his own heart."
"If the slave says the wrong thing, please punish the mother."
The cold gaze swept over Gui Zhi, who was kneeling on the ground, and Empress Dowager Liu said in a deep voice: "What is wrong with you, get up." ” Life is too short, and now that she has made a decision, it is impossible for her to turn back.
Whether it is success or defeat, life or death, these are all choices she made after careful consideration, and it is definitely not her impulsive move.
"Master Pang is ruthless, insidious and cunning, the slave is worried that he will be bad for the mother, but how to do it" This has to be changed elsewhere, Gui Zhi wants to protect the Empress Dowager Liu to leave, but this is the Taishi Mansion, who knows how many secret guards or dead soldiers are hidden in this mansion, if you really want to do it, she can't protect the Empress Dowager Liu.
"Although your worries are not unreasonable, he will not take action against the mourning family."
If she didn't even have this confidence, Empress Dowager Liu would not take the initiative to send it to the door to find abuse "If the mother is sure, the slave won't say much."
"Since the mourning family dares to bring only one of you to the Taishi Mansion, how can there be no bargaining chips in his hands, if he dares to do it, he will let the entire Pang clan bury the mourning family without losing money."

It is not easy to say that Empress Dowager Liu took this step, in the end, ambition defeated reason, and she was obsessed with going on.
"Master Pang is really big enough, he actually let Niangniang wait for him for so long, do you really think Niangniang can't do anything to him?"
"You have always been calm, why today" Before Empress Dowager Liu finished speaking, Gui Zhi glanced at Empress Dowager Liu, and the sound of unfamiliar footsteps outside the dark room interrupted their conversation.
"Don't say anything for a while, just act when the opportunity arises."
"Yes, sissy."
Master Pang more or less guessed some of the intentions of the Empress Dowager Liu, but no matter how carefully he thought about it, he hadn't figured out what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of the Empress Dowager Liu, and how he came to the door in person at this sensitive period.
"Please forgive the Queen Mother, the old minister is late."
Before figuring out the intention of Empress Dowager Liu's coming, Master Pang's attitude towards her was quite respectful.
"There is no Queen Mother here."
Hearing this, Master Pang was slightly stunned at first, and soon understood the meaning of Empress Dowager Liu's words, and he said frankly: "Then there is no Master here." ” "Guizhi, you step back first."
"Yes."
When the words fell, Gui Zhi retreated to the door of the dark room without squinting and waited, for a while, there were two worlds inside and outside the door.
Empress Dowager Liu couldn't be out of the palace for too long, and she didn't want to come over to play Tai Chi with Master Pang to say polite words, she has always pursued the principle of being straight to the point, and she must gain something as soon as she makes a move.
"The mourning family must have guessed a few points, so the mourning family doesn't need to be polite with the master."
"It doesn't hurt if the Queen Mother has anything to say, and the old ministers who can cooperate will fully cooperate."
Pang Taishi is dedicated to seeking benefits for the Pang family, and Empress Dowager Liu is not only reluctant to be powerful, but also for the interests of Rongchang Bofu, they used to be grasshoppers on the same rope, one fell and the others all had to fall, and the relationship between them can be described as extremely close.
However, with the Taishi Mansion and the Medicine King's Mansion leading to the Medicine King Order, and then Queen Pang killed King Han, the conspiracy was discovered, and then she was deposed and sent to the cold palace, Empress Dowager Liu and Empress Pang had already torn their faces, and Empress Dowager Liu was even more directly annoyed with Pang Taishi, and she also stumbled Pang Taishi in the court.
It's just that Empress Dowager Liu is just a female streamer in the end, even if there are people with her in the court, they can't play a big role, except for the disgusting and disgusting Pang Taishi, nothing else can be done at all.
Thinking about the bottom line of the principle that the Empress Dowager Liu could not be offended even if she could no longer win over, Taishi Pang began to alienate the Empress Dowager Liu, he never thought that the Empress Dowager Liu would take the initiative to come to the door.
"In the past, we were connected because of the crown prince, and we all had common interests, but we were quite united."
"That's right."
"The news of the prince's house arrest must have been received by the etheric master's ability, I don't know what the prince thinks the emperor wants to do" "Niangniang really looks up to the minister, where is the emperor's mind that the minister can figure out."
"The Taishi doesn't need to use these words to fool the mourning family, the emperor hates you, but the emperor also hates the mourning family."
In this regard, Pang Taishi did not express any opinions, because of the death of Queen Han, none of them were resented by the emperor, and wished they would die as soon as possible.
"After King Han recovers, the prince will be deposed sooner or later, this is a sure thing, and the mourning family doesn't believe that the prince will have nothing in his heart."
Empress Dowager Liu is not in a hurry to ask Taishi Pang to express her position as soon as possible, if he expresses his position too quickly, it will make Empress Dowager Liu very uneasy.
"What the hell does the mother want to say" "The mourning family wants to cooperate with the Taishi, so that it is a win-win situation for both you and the mourning family."
Pang Taishi's brows were tightly twisted, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he said in a deep voice: "The old minister is willing to hear about it." ” From the very beginning, Empress Dowager Liu was prepared with both hands, she knew very well what she wanted, therefore, she would never allow the person who sat on the throne after Emperor Xuan to be a person who did not listen to her.
Empress Dowager Liu and Mrs.
Taishi are sisters-in-law, and Empress Pang, the daughter of Mrs.
Taishi, is the niece of Empress Dowager Liu, and the prince is not only the grandson of Empress Dowager Liu but also the nephew of Empress Dowager Liu.
At first, the development of the prince in all aspects was very in line with the requirements of the Empress Dowager Liu, and the prince was growing in the direction she longed for, which made most of the Empress Dowager Liu's efforts put on the prince's body, and King Chen, who existed like a spare tire, became more and more inconspicuous, and even whether the Empress Dowager Liu would use him as a chess piece was uncertain.
Until Empress Dowager Liu and Empress Pang completely tore their faces, Empress Dowager Liu even resented the prince, so she changed the direction of the wind and no longer bet on the prince's body, but completely set her eyes on King Chen's body.
Now that King Han has recovered, not to mention how high his voice among the people is, his reputation in the court alone is also very high, and those who once remained neutral have all favored King Han one by one.
The crown prince is now under house arrest in the palace, and according to Empress Dowager Liu's understanding of Emperor Xuan, the holy decree of deposing the prince will be announced to the world in less than three days at most, and at that time, the prince will be of no value.
"The Queen Mother means to let the old minister assist His Royal Highness King Chen to ascend the throne" "That's what the mourning family really means, the prince used to be the best candidate, but now it's not the case, the mourning family believes that the prince sees it more clearly than the mourning family."
After a short silence, Taishi Pang looked at the Empress Dowager Liu and said: "King Chen was cultivated and supported by the Queen Mother, and the old minister assisted King Chen to ascend the throne, what good is this for the old minister?"
"The Taishi is bent on wanting the crown prince to ascend to the throne, isn't what he wants is the glory and wealth of the Pang family?"
Listening to Empress Dowager Liu's words, Pang Taishi Mo, how could what he was trying to do was just as simple as glory and wealth.
If so, then he helps everyone the same.
But there was so much more he wanted.
"If these are not what the Taishi wants, what the Master is thinking about is the country of the Mo royal family."
As soon as these words came out, the entire dark room was so quiet that even the sound of needles falling on the ground could be heard clearly, and Master Pang stared at him even more, and said with a smile: "The Queen Mother is really good at joking. ” As for whether this is a joke, God knows, the earth knows, and Master Pang knows. t1706231537:
