The letter ended here.
Shen Miao was silent for a long time before saying, “Fu Xiuyi has started to make a move. It’s very likely that he has joined forces with the State of Qin. Even if he hasn’t, Fu Xiuyi must have this idea.”
Xie Jingxing nodded and looked at Shen Miao. “Aren’t you worried about your father?”
“It’s useless to worry.” Shen Miao said, “Now that I’m thousands of miles away, even if I plan, I can’t control the situation. Moreover, I believe my parents and brother are not ordinary people. As long as they’re not as stupid as before, they have a chance of winning.”
Xie Jingxing smiled. “Actually, it’s all the same.”
Shen Miao looked at him and frowned. “What do you mean?”
Xie Jingxing pinched her face again and said, “If the State of Qin is involved, it can only mean one thing. They will attack the Daliang Dynasty in no time. They will definitely invade from the border. Father-in-law and I are actually on the same side.”
“Father-in-law doesn’t want to support a prince to be the new emperor, nor does he want to be the emperor himself. In that case, we’ll swallow Ming Qi and destroy the State of Qin. The three countries will be unified. That way, he won’t have to make a choice.”
Shen Miao’s heart skipped a beat. She had actually expected this to happen. In her previous life, not only did the Daliang Dynasty destroy the State of Qin, but they also attacked the capital and took down Ming Qi. In the future, when the three countries were unified there would only be one emperor in the world.
“But can you do it?” Shen Miao asked, “Fu Xiuyi already knows your brother’s illness. Without a doubt, he will definitely spread this secret. At that time, Long Ye will be in chaos. Even if Ming Qi and the State of Qin are working together, I believe you can still defeat them, but it will be a long and tiring battle.”
Xie Jingxing glanced at her. “Little girl, are you suspecting your husband’s ability?”
Shen Miao paused. Even at this moment, Xie Jingxing was still in the mood to joke. She was really speechless.
“Just watch,” he said.
The fall of the Lu family shocked the entire Long Ye. Because of the letter ‘To My Countrymen’ , people changed sides and clapped their hands in joy at the fall of the Lu family. After all, the Lu family had done such a treacherous thing, so they could not blame the royal family for being heartless. However, because of this, the layout of power had changed. The fence sitters that were once on the Lu family’s side began to make plans for their future.
Emperor Yong Le was definitely not a magnanimous and benevolent emperor.
When he struck, like Emperor Xiaowu, he would not show mercy. Back then,
Consort Jing was the most favored consort in the harem. However, when
Emperor Yong Le was dealing with the Lu family, he did not care about Consort Jing at all. It was even obvious that Emperor Yong Le had been secretly planning to deal with the Lu family for many years.
It was really intimidating for an emperor to have such a scheming personality. Because of this, the court officials were even more afraid of him and became much more obedient.
The Ye family, which was as famous as the Lu family, was also anxious and uneasy.
No one expected Emperor Yong Le to make such a drastic move, nor did they expect the Lu family to fall so quickly. Even Ye Maocai, who thought that he was smart all his life, suddenly felt that something was wrong. Now, he regretted not surrendering when the royal family wanted to recruit the Ye family back then. Now, he had lost this opportunity for nothing.
This was because Ye Mao realized that Emperor Yong Le had already started to deal with the Ye family..
