After rebirth, I became a national teacher

"Mammy, please send someone to the Jiang residence to tell my mother to come tomorrow."

As the mistress of the imperial palace, it was much easier for Queen Jiang and her relatives to visit her in the palace than for ordinary people.

The next day, after entering the palace, Madam Jiang received instructions from Queen Jiang and immediately sent her confidant to Nando to deliver a letter to the wife of Duke Dingguo.

*

As for Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi, she heard the news from the previous dynasty only slightly later than Empress Jiang.

"What? Your Majesty actually wants to worship the Du'e God!"

She was so frightened that she knocked over the teacup on the table, and the tea residue soaked a large area of ​​her exquisite and gorgeous palace dress.

She has always been careful about her appearance and doesn't want to have any flaws. If it were in the past, she would have immediately asked someone to pack and change clothes for her.

However, at this moment, she couldn't care less about these things.

"Your Majesty, it is absolutely true. His Majesty has already asked the Imperial Academy to draft an edict to inform all prefectures and counties."

Eunuch Liu said affirmatively.

Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi paced back and forth in the palace anxiously, dragging her skirt that was stained by tea.

Previously, in order to wipe out Cihang Temple in one fell swoop and leave them no chance of recovery, she sent people to investigate Cihang Temple.

The Cihang Temple is a very tight-knit place, and it is difficult to extract information from its members.

The people she sent could only start with the many believers.

They have many believers and even more people around them, so they can still find some breakthroughs.

The investigation made her even more frightened.

Zheng Yuannai's father, who had been sterilized for many years due to injuries, unexpectedly gave birth to a son after taking the magic dew given by the temple master.

If Emperor Yong'an knew about this, he would try every possible means to obtain the elixir, and all her advantages would vanish in an instant.

Judging from Zheng Yuannai's rise to fame and his identity as a believer of Cihang Temple, the abbot of Cihang Temple and the now much-talked-about God Du'e are most likely the same person.

She had seen many people wearing multiple vests in novels in her previous life.

If this is true, once the Lord Du'e is welcomed into the court by Emperor Yong'an, it will be a devastating blow to her.

She had to stop this!

But now Emperor Yong'an is in high spirits and I'm afraid he won't listen to any opposing voices.

Moreover, if her persuasion fails, when Emperor Yong'an meets the abbot of Cihang Temple and learns of her abilities, what she says now will become evidence of her ulterior motives to prevent him from having more children.

No matter what, she could not destroy her image of being pure, kind and non-aggressive in Emperor Yong'an's heart.

Emperor Yong'an's love for her is her last trump card to survive in the palace.

But the Lord of Du'e may come to the court at any time. How can she wipe out the power of Cihang Temple in one fell swoop?

Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi was like a trapped beast, feeling extremely helpless.

Unfortunately, the system that provided her with a lot of help in the past has still not returned.

Her sister was also about to give birth, and she didn't even have anyone to talk to.

Fortunately, God is on her side.

An incident that happened ten days later gave her great inspiration:

An urgent military report arrived from Shu:

The King of Shu denounced Emperor Yong'an's foolish and cruel behavior, which was rejected by God and caused frequent natural disasters. He then launched a rebellion under the banner of "eliminating the foolish monarch and saving the people"!

After hearing about this, Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi made sure that Emperor Yong'an had summoned his ministers and discussed countermeasures. Then she took the Emperor Yong'an's favorite snacks and soup and took the initiative to visit him in his bedroom.

After all, the image she created in front of Emperor Yong'an was that of someone who loved him wholeheartedly and regarded him as her heaven.

It would be unreasonable not to care about him when such a big thing happened.

She chose a good time, as Emperor Yong'an had already vented most of his anger before and after summoning the ministers.

Now, he has discussed countermeasures with his trusted ministers and ordered the Governor-General of your province, Tan Rang, and the Governor-General of Huguang, Jiang Zongyuan, to jointly send troops to quell the rebellion. He is no longer so anxious.

"Ask her to come in."

When he saw Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi, Emperor Yong'an's expression softened a little.

"Something bad happened in the previous dynasty. Now everyone is avoiding me, but you took the initiative to come here."

In the past, she rarely acted so unruly as to come to his bedroom in person to seek favor.

Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi said coquettishly:

"It is precisely because everyone is avoiding you now and not many people care about your Majesty that I want to come. Otherwise, what if you get angry and refuse to eat or drink, and your body gets damaged by anger?"

As he spoke, he served the snacks and soups he had brought to Emperor Yong'an to have some.

Emperor Yong'an really had no appetite and didn't really want to eat.

Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi looked at him lovingly with bright eyes:

"Your Majesty, when I was a child, I heard a saying: Always compete with people who share the same interests, and don't argue with fools."

"A natural disaster is a natural disaster. What does it have to do with you? Those who can use this excuse to criticize you can only be said to be ignorant and incompetent. Because Your Majesty is so wise and intelligent, they can't find any other excuse to slander you!"

"You're really giving them face by getting angry and hurting yourself over such people!"

These words immediately calmed Emperor Yong'an down:

"Good! How good of you not to argue with a fool! My beloved concubine is always so witty!"

After visiting Emperor Yong'an, although Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi did not deliberately gather too much information, she gained a deep understanding of Emperor Yong'an's deep hatred for the rebellious Prince of Shu.

Now it seems that the burning of the Temple of Heaven and the previous rumors were undoubtedly the work of the King of Shu.

On the way back to her palace, she suddenly had an idea of ​​how to deal with Cihang Temple -

That is to brand Cihang Temple and the God of Du'e as traitors to the Shu King!

After all, Emperor Yong'an did not witness the two miracles of the God of Du'e, and the rebel King of Shu was able to create a mysterious "strange fire from the sky" like the one that burned down the Temple of Heaven.

If this is the case, why can't we say that the miracles of the God of Du'e were also created through similar means to deceive people?

Just imagine, if Emperor Yong'an really praised the God of Du'e highly, and the God of Du'e turned against him and attacked Emperor Yong'an at a critical moment, the destructive effect would definitely be more harmful than the rumors spread by the King of Shu.

Cihang Temple has so many powerful believers in Nandu. Once Emperor Yong'an suspects that the King of Shu is a traitor to the Cihang Temple, then all these powerful believers in Cihang Temple are accomplices.

Given Emperor Yong'an's suspicion, he will definitely eliminate them all to prevent future troubles.

Isn't this exactly what she had been longing for, a perfect way to destroy Cihang Temple in one fell swoop!

Now we have a solution, all we have to do is fabricate evidence to link Cihang Temple to the Shu King's rebellion.

This is a serious matter, and it requires a very capable and reliable person to handle it.

In order to maintain her image of being indifferent and kind, Imperial Noble Concubine Shuyi has few particularly reliable people under her command, except for the power of Eunuch Liu.

There are indeed many people who want to do things for her, but she only cares about small things, and she doesn't trust them at all for big things.

My father and brothers from my mother's side are all good-for-nothings. If the secret is leaked or things go wrong, the consequences will be disastrous.

After much thought, it turned out that only my brother-in-law Pei Xiao was available.

On the one hand, Pei Xiao is actually very capable and resourceful. With the background of the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion, he also has many people under his command who can be used.

On the other hand, Pei Xiao's leg was also injured by Cihang Temple, and he has a natural hatred for Cihang Temple.

After deciding on the candidate, Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi did not delay at all. The next day, she used the excuse of visiting her sister who was about to give birth and obtained permission from Emperor Yong'an to go to the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion in person.
