Long Ziyue ascended the throne, becoming the new Empress of the Dragon Soaring Kingdom.
This was something Chu Qianli and Fu Ning had never expected.
Chu Qianli managed to maintain her composure, but Fu Ning was almost driven mad!
"How is this possible? How could Ziyue betray us, Miss? It's impossible, absolutely impossible!"
That was Ziyue, who had gone through hardships with them, a comrade who had shared life and death with them!
That was Ziyue, whom she had always thought would end up with Big Brother!
How could Long Ziyue do such a thing?
"The human heart is hard to fathom!" Gan Shi Yi clenched his palm.
Although he didn't know Long Ziyue, he had a clear understanding of her character after following Chu Qianli.
When their boss returned to Dragon Soaring, Long Ziyue was among them, a sworn friend who had shared life and death with her in conquering the land.
In his entire life, Shi Yi hated petty people who betrayed their close friends for profit the most!
"Boss, this matter is absolutely true. Wei Qiong has now received the order and is leading troops to Beiming to... to hunt down Boss."
"Impossible..."
But this time, even Fu Ning was somewhat uncertain.
She turned and looked at Chu Qianli, who was still leisurely drinking tea not far away: "Miss, what should we do then?"
Why wasn't Miss anxious at all? When she didn't know what the news was earlier, Miss had clearly seemed a little uneasy.
But now, she seemed like nothing had happened?
This matter was an absolute disaster for her!
Wei Qiong! They had joined forces to eliminate Long Tianliu and reclaim this empire together!
Did being betrayed by Long Ziyue and Wei Qiong not affect her at all?
"Miss!" Fu Ning was so angry she almost stamped her foot, "How can you still be in the mood to drink tea here?"
"What else? Where else can I go?"
Although the逍遥王府 (Xiaoyao Prince's Estate) seemed unsuitable for staying any longer, it wouldn't hurt to finish a cup of tea.
"Shi Yi, how much faster is your intelligence network compared to those princes in the imperial city?"
"Half a day at most." Especially Prince Xuan, his intelligence network was no less inferior to mine.
Shi Yi said softly, "Prince Xuan's side will be at most two hours later, and Prince He and Prince Yu, I'm afraid they won't be much later either."
"I heard that the one coming to apprehend Boss this time is not only Wei Qiong, but also a Great General Tan Xu. She is of the same generation as Wei Qiong and directly obeys Regent Wei Xian."
In fact, even though Long Ziyue had ascended the throne, according to Chu Qianli's calculations, the one in power now was likely Regent Wei Xian.
She rose with Wei Xian, and she fell with Wei Xian!
Wei Xian did indeed hold great power. Chu Qianli had already considered this before asking her to come out of seclusion.
However, Wei Xian was loyal to Dragon Soaring and was not a bad person.
As for this coup, to be honest, she accepted it rationally, but psychologically, she still had many doubts.
"Have you found out the reason for Wei Xian's coup?"
"It is rumored that the former Emperor of Teng Yuan had an imperial decree to pass the throne to the Third Prince Long Hongming, and the current Empress of Dingguo obtained the throne through usurpation."
"Is the imperial decree real?"
"My people haven't had a chance to verify this yet."
After all, it was an imperial decree. While the news could be obtained, the original appearance of the decree was difficult to see.
Even the informants he had placed in the palace had no chance to encounter it.
Chu Qianli nodded, her mood complicated.
She looked at Fu Ning: "Find a way to contact Fulong. If Dragon Soaring really intends to hunt me down, they will definitely send a state letter to the Emperor of Beiming. This is, after all, the imperial city of Beiming. Go and see if there is any news in the palace?"
