Cui Liu raised her head when she heard this, and said fearfully, "Can it really succeed? You don't even know that Madam Xiao beat up the Imperial Concubine today."

The Third Prince was shocked, "What? She actually hit my mother?"

Cui Liu wiped her tears and cried, "Yes, I was scared to death today. That Madam Xiao is so terrible. She didn't give the Imperial Concubine any face at all and beat me up without hesitation."

The third prince was a little angry when he heard this. After all, she was his mother.

So he asked, "Who are the people from Rongxi Palace? Did they just watch her beat the imperial concubine?"

This is what Cui Liu feared even more. She cried, "No one in the palace dared to move. Only after Madam Xiao left did everyone dare to help the imperial concubine."

The Third Prince's expression suddenly became even uglier. "It seems that the power of Duke Ning is more formidable than I expected. I'm afraid that the entire palace is now under his control."

When he talked about this, his face turned grim with anger. "This prince has long advised mother to persuade father to take back the power in Ning thief's hands, but mother would not listen. She watched him become what he is now. Now even the palace has been controlled by him. I don't know whether this world belongs to my Yu family or to Ning thief!"

The crying Cui Liu raised her head when she heard this, "In fact, the Imperial Concubine did advise her."

The third prince was surprised. "I have advised him, but how could it be..."

Cui Liu wiped her tears and nodded, "I did persuade him, and more than once, but the emperor said he had no choice at that time."

The third prince was even more surprised, "Father said so?"

Cui Liu nodded, "Moreover, after the Empress knew that Zuo Xiang and his men were removed from office, she let it slip in her anger that Zuo Xiang's faction was actually all the Emperor's men."

The Third Prince was immediately surprised and said, "It turned out to be like this. I thought that my father had already stopped caring about state affairs. I didn't expect that the Left Prime Minister's party was actually my father's people."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Tu, who was eavesdropping, turned his head to look at Ning Cuo who was standing beside him.

But seeing that the man had no reaction, I knew that he had known about this for a long time.

In fact, think about it, with Ning Cuo's scheming and means, he must have a way to kill these ministers if he really wanted to, but he has kept them and not made any moves. It must be because of this relationship!

But it sounds quite strange that the Da Zhao Emperor, who had always been out of tune, ignored state affairs and hid in the palace all day long to practice Taoism, but secretly cultivated ministers to oppose Ning Cuo in the court.

After all, everyone in this world knows that the current emperor favors Duke Ning and even entrusts him with all the government affairs. Looking back now, there must be something unknown in this!

Xiao Tu wanted to tilt her head to look at Ning Cuo, but she saw that the man just smiled and she couldn't see anything.

At this moment, voices were heard again from behind the rockery.

After the third prince thought for a while, he obviously didn't understand what the current emperor meant, so he looked up at Cui Liu without thinking any more.

"You did a good job today. Mother relied on you to help me deal with it. Today, Xiao offended Mother so much. Mother will definitely not let it go. You just wait. Mother will definitely go to Father to complain.

Xiao committed a crime of insubordination by beating the Imperial Concubine. Even if the Emperor favors Ning the thief, he will be held accountable according to the law. At the very least, Xiao will be punished with a caning. And considering Ning the thief loves this woman like his life, I'm afraid he will confront the Emperor directly. Then..."

The Third Prince had a triumphant smile on his face. If he couldn't deal with the thief Ning, then he would let the Emperor do it himself.
