“However, my spies in the palace said that Fu Ying slept with Ni Dingyuan every day, and Fu Ying indulged Ni Dingyuan to be lawless and unruly in the palace. She even brought Ni Dingyuan out of the palace to hunt. With such a grand occasion, she issued a decree at the last minute to make all the civil and military officials and nobles put aside the important matters of the country to accompany him in court. It was simply absurd. No one in the palace could accept it, let alone the civil and military officials and nobles… If she was pretending, would she have gone to this extent? Wouldn’t she be destroying her image? Even if she gets rid of me, it will be difficult for her to clear her name, right?”

The more Fu Xu spoke, the more he seemed to believe that Fu Ying was really enjoying herself every day instead of plotting something against him. Shao Shuting squinted and couldn’t be bothered to say that Fu Ying didn’t intend to clear her name. Fu Ying was a person who dared to do so, so she wasn’t afraid of what others would say about her.

“You’re really lucky!” Shao Shuting only said. “If we can’t capture Empress Dowager Minde the day after tomorrow, let’s see if you’re still lucky enough to threaten Fu Ying and make him abdicate the throne to you!”

Fu Xu didn’t notice that there was something wrong with his words. He only said in a panic, “H-how did you know that I was planning to capture the Empress Dowager the day after tomorrow? Why are you saying all that?”

“That’s why I said you’re st*pid. You have a pig’s brain!” Shao Shuting didn’t answer and just scolded him angrily. “I’ve already sent you such a letter, but you didn’t really pay attention to it. You only thought that others were playing you! Let me tell you, the Da Ling’s Emperor arrived with a person called Jiang Yue. He is currently staying at the Heavenly Imperial Inn. He has already come to your residence at night and knows who you are. They have also entered the palace to look for Xue Wuhu. Xue Wuhu has also asked them to help defeat you. They have also agreed. If you still don’t believe me, just wait for death!”

Fu Xu was even more shocked by all this information.

If the Emperor of Da Ling helped Fu Ying, then Fu Ying’s throne would be solidified.

Moreover, he wouldn’t be able to live the life of an Emperor!

If that was the case, Fu Ying would not let him live!

“Do you want to be the Emperor?” Suddenly, Shao Shuting asked. He couldn’t be bothered to talk nonsense anymore.

Fu Xu gave it a good thought.

Before he could speak, Shao Shuting continued. “Whether you believe it or not, you have to take a gamble. This kind of opportunity doesn’t come every time.”

“What do you mean?” Fu Xu did not understand.

“How often does Empress Dowager Minde leave the palace to pray?”

When Fu Xu heard that, he naturally felt that it was right. He had always been worried that he could not catch that old woman. Now, this was indeed a great opportunity. It was not something that would happen often…

“We’re here to help you,” Shao Shuting continued. “The Da Ling Emperor and Jiang Yue should be protecting Empress Dowager Minde outside the palace. When Empress Dowager Minde leaves the palace… He will be there…” He pointed at Huo Wenqing. “He will lure Jiang Yue away. Don’t underestimate Jiang Yue. Otherwise, the Da Ling Emperor wouldn’t have brought her with him. It’s because as long as she’s around, nothing will happen to him.

“As long as we lure Jiang Yue away, the Da Ling Emperor will be alone. As long as I join forces with your people, that old stubborn Empress Dowager Minde will be a hindrance. At that time, we will naturally be able to capture Da Ling Emperor and let him fall into your hands. At the same time, you can also capture Empress Dowager Minde. Isn’t that killing two birds with one stone?”
