Villain: We agreed to cancel the engagement, what are you regretting?

In the hall, Liang Mingli, the Minister of Revenue, first took a sip of tea from his teacup, then looked around with a deep and serious look.

Everyone present was from aristocratic families among the civil officials.

There were also officials who sided with them after Murong Wanqing's death.

After a long while, he put down his teacup and said slowly:

"I believe everyone here knows why we are here today, right?"

"The Empress is becoming more and more powerful. If things continue like this, sooner or later we, the aristocratic families, will be wiped out by her!"

"It's time to find a way to get the Ying family back to that position!"

Hearing this, the ministers had different expressions.

Finally, someone couldn't help but say,"Sir, isn't it the right time now?"

"You also saw today that the empress still protects the Zhenbei Palace."

"There is no way to alienate the Zhenbei Palace and the Empress"

"With the addition of General Yang, no one can shake the position of the empress!"

Liang Mingli smiled calmly:"This is all superficial"

"How can you and I understand the emperor's mind at will?"

"The King of Zhenbei is extremely powerful, and the northern border is almost a country of its own. As an emperor, would you allow such an existence?"

"Moreover, the empress's intention to reduce the power of the vassal states has never changed. As for her intention to protect the prince of Zhenbei, it was just a show for outsiders to see, in order to stabilize the heart of the prince of Zhenbei."

"Now that the Rongdi are heading south, it is the best time to attack the Zhenbei Palace!"

Everyone nodded when they heard this.

Some people sighed,"I didn't expect the empress to be so short-sighted. If she cuts off the vassal of the Zhenbei Palace, isn't that cutting off one's own arm?"

Liang Mingli smiled and said,"'When the cunning rabbit dies, the running dog is cooked'. This principle has been like this since ancient times."

"Dynasties are not eternal, but our family can be passed down from generation to generation. Whose family here has not lasted for hundreds of years?"

"How can those peasants compare with us?"

Everyone agreed, but someone raised a question:

"But then again, the descendants of the Ying family have been almost all killed by the empress. Who is capable of taking on the important task?"

Everyone frowned at this.

When the empress came to power, she killed too many people. The Ying clan was depleted due to the killings, and among the remaining people, there are almost no successful ones.

Even if they want to overthrow the empress, they need at least a nominal monarch.

But who to choose in this situation?

In their impression, almost no clan member is suitable.

Liang Mingli smiled and said,"I think the King of Wu can."

At this time, the Minister of War Liu Qu frowned and said,"Brother Liang, the King of Wu was brought up by the empress herself, and the empress loves him very much. Will he rebel against the empress?"

Liang Mingli said,"Although the King of Wu was brought up by the empress herself, he is not her biological son. After all, he is a member of the Ying family."

"Besides, it was he who told me that the empress wanted to reduce the power of the princes!"

Everyone was in an uproar.

Liu Qu smiled and said,"It seems that Brother Liang has been prepared for this!"

Liang Mingli also said,"It's just a coincidence. At this moment, the time, the place and the people are all right. It can be said that God wants to destroy the empress. We are just following God's will!"

"Yes! The Empress has been tyrannical and arbitrary over the years. It's time to let her know that we are not easy to bully!"

"How dare a woman ride on our heads and pee and shit on us? That's outrageous!"

"I've been displeased with her for a long time!"

As the first female emperor in this continent in thousands of years, many of the decrees issued by Li Chenghuan have harmed their interests. It was fine before, after all, the King of Zhenbei and the General Shenwei were on her side.

Moreover, the Ying family was weak, and they had no way to start.

But now, there is finally hope.

Then, Liang Mingli looked at Liu Qu:"Brother Liu, you follow the original plan, is there any problem?"

Liu Qu heard this, his face was a little sad:"My young master Gong......Oh~ Forget it, for the sake of the family cause, sacrifice is also justified."

One sentence has determined Liu Shaogong's life or death.

Liang Mingli nodded with satisfaction. What he wanted was Liu Qu's statement.

After all, this matter was serious, and he couldn't let Liu Qu hesitate.

Then, they talked about the specific details.

But in the crowd, there was a person who silently remembered all this.

After everyone dispersed, this person also returned to his home.

In the afternoon, he quietly went to Ziwei Palace.

Along the way, he showed the token and came to Fengming Palace without any obstacles. After letting Eunuch An report, he walked in.

""Your Majesty, I am Fang Le, your servant. I am here to see you!" The man respectfully greeted Li Chenghuan.

Li Chenghuan just looked up and said with a smile,"My dear Lord Fang! Why are you here?"

"Your Majesty, Liang Mingli's group, just as Your Majesty expected, wants to force Your Majesty to abdicate!" Fang Le directly told the conspiracy just now

"Oh?" Li Chenghuan asked with great interest:"What else did they say?"

"They also mentioned the King of Wu, saying that he had already contacted Liang Mingli!"Fang Le threw out another bombshell.

This time Li Chenghuan was a little surprised, but he quickly returned to normal and snorted:

"Even Yue Er......But it is also true that when children grow up and become independent, they start to dream unrealistic dreams.

Although the tone was light, it sounded like thunder to Fang Le.

He could already imagine the fate of those aristocratic families.

"I know all this, you did a great job! I will remember it! Next, you continue to stay with them and report to me in time if there is anything!"Li Chenghuan ordered

"Here!"

Then Li Chenghuan waved his hand to let him leave, and asked Eunuch An to come in and ordered:

"Xiao Anzi, go and ask Wang Xuan to come see me. I have something to discuss with him!"

""Yes!"

Half an hour later, Wang Xuan arrived at Fengming Palace.

"I see your majesty. I wonder what you want me to do for you?" Wang Xuan said calmly.

"Wang Qing, do you know how many people in Luodu want you dead?"Li Chenghuan stared at Wang Xuan

"Ah? Why do people want me dead? I have always been kind to others!"Wang Xuan pretended not to know.

Li Chenghuan rolled her eyes. Wang Xuan actually did this, which almost choked her next words.

But she calmed down and continued:

"At the morning court today, the ministers were arguing over the Rongdi invasion."

"Someone mentioned that it was you, Wang Xuan, who caused this incident. It would be better to hand you over to the Rongdi people so that they would calm down and withdraw their troops. This would end the war."

"you say......"Li Chenghuan showed a meaningful expression and said,"Should I agree?"
