The hall is not big, and it is transparent from north to south. There are only a few screens in the huge hall. Just these few screens are not enough to hide people.

The little maid thought she could get away with it by just a little avoidance, but she didn't expect that the empress dowager would take root here. After all, her scheming was too shallow, and she couldn't help but exclaim for a moment.

When she shouted, the matter was a big deal. When the empress dowager went out, there was someone secretly hiding his mark. What was the purpose? This shocked everyone!

The female guard beside the queen mother blocked Feng Jia and shouted, "Who is hidden behind the screen?"

The little girl was so scared that her face looked like a dirt. She ran out from behind the screen and knelt on the ground and said, "I was shocked by my ancestors' Dharma Lord, and I deserve to die!"

The queen mother stared at the little girl with a sneer on her lips, and said, "A little girl is not ugly and can't shock the Ai family. I think there is someone behind the screen to shock the Ai family, right?"

The female guard said angrily: "Listen to the person behind the screen, if you don't come out, you will be killed!"

Liu Wan was so scared that her face turned pale. At this moment, she also understood why the Empress Dowager suddenly visited. It must be that someone in the village had leaked the news.

Although the Xue family is strong and Mrs. Xue is good at governing the country and is loved by others, how can she defend the empress dowager's eyeliner and nails? Sure enough, the news came to the empress dowager's side, and today she came with a purpose!

Liu Wan thought of this in her heart and saw Lu Zheng coming out loudly behind the screen. As soon as Lu Zheng appeared, countless screams of exclamations sounded from the audience.

Oh my God! What is this place? Look at the people around here, where are there men besides eunuchs? How could Lu Zheng, a man, appear here?

You should know that the hot spring villa here was the place where the Queen Mother had recuperated before, especially the backyard, which was almost forbidden for men. Now that Lu Zheng appears here, how can everyone not be surprised?

The female guards were so surprised that they forgot to stop them. Empress Dowager Xiang's expression instantly became extremely gloomy. She stared at Lu Zheng, and fire almost spurted out from her eyes.

Lu Zheng walked forward calmly, saluted seriously and respectfully, and said, "Foreign minister Lu Zheng has met the ancestor of Empress Dowager Yan!"

Empress Dowager Xiang snorted coldly. She was over 60 years old, but she looked like a lady of forties. She looked majestic and elegant. When she got angry, everyone in the audience was silent.

"Okay! A defector was actually hidden in this hot spring villa. Hehe, it seems that you have gained fame over the years and won the title of the so-called number one talent in Jiangnan. It is indeed a little useful. At least you can cheat and let yourself survive and save your life at the critical moment...

Little do they know that once a great talent loses his reputation and loses his integrity, he is destined to be despised. Even if he can survive, what is the difference between death?" said Empress Dowager Xiang.

Liu Wan knelt on the ground and said in great fear: "Old ancestor, Mr. Lu Zheng has difficulties. He... he was also persecuted and forced to do so..."

"Shut up! Well, you girl from the Xue family, don't forget your identity. You are the young lady of the Xue family! This man named Lu, Nai Dakang, is a shameless person who betrays his country and country. You actually defend him? The Ai family has really loved you in vain over the years. Your account will be settled later!

Lu Zheng, the Ai family is asking you now, do you know that your crime is a crime of death? Do you know that your betrayal of the country is a crime of death? Today, the Ai family will punish you for the people of the world. Are you convinced?"

Empress Dowager Xiang was angry. She was angry and murderous. Lu Zheng was secretly shocked. He knew that this old woman was really hard to deal with. No wonder she was able to rule in Beiyan for so many years as a female.

Lu Zheng knew in his heart that he had no way out in the face of this situation and had no room for maneuver. As soon as he thought of this, he gritted his teeth and said, "Empress Dowager, do you know that you are about to have a disaster? My surname is Lu will never speak wildly. I am facing extremely dangerous situation in Beiyan. Others don't know it, but the Empress Dowager is clear!

Originally, I could have been flat in Shangjing, and I could have come and gone, but in the end I suffered crises everywhere and became a loser. The root cause was because of Cen Jinshuang!”

Empress Dowager Xiang's face changed drastically and she said angrily: "You are arrogant! Give me a stick and beat me up!"

Cen Jinshuang is a thorn in the heart of the empress dowager. Now no one in the court dares to mention this person's name. Lu Zheng mentioned Cen Jinshuang on this occasion, which undoubtedly made a big taboo. After all, Empress Dowager Xiang is a female, how could she not be angry?

Lu Zheng laughed and said, "The Empress Dowager Beiyan hopes that she can rule the world. Is it just that she is so glossy? Don't you dare to finish my words? The Empress Dowager Beiyan doesn't have the courage to mock me and say I betray my country?"

Since Lu Zheng has sacrificed his life, he still cares whether the other party is the queen mother or not. His words have scared everyone around him. You must know that Queen Mother Xiang’s temper in Beiyan is famous for being violent, and even the emperor and the prince dare not be at all presumptuous in front of her.

And she also has another characteristic: for those who dare to challenge her authority, she will use the most cruel means to kill them, not only to die alone, but some even have to be implicated in the tribe.

In addition to ability, a woman can gain power, more importantly, she must be ruthless enough to achieve great things, especially for women.

So, when Lu Zheng openly challenged Empress Dowager Xiang, he didn't think anything. Everyone else was scared and knelt down. Liu Wan'ai was about to stand up and pounce on Lu Zheng. Lu Zheng hurriedly stared at her.

Empress Dowager Xiang was also stunned. In her memory, it was almost twenty years ago that someone dared to stab her in this way. Over the years, she had become accustomed to being gentle and tame. Although Lu Zheng was a foreign minister, he dared to challenge her like this?

"Okay, okay! I'll listen to you for now, stop me and listen to him!" said Empress Dowager Xiang, and several Jianshuo guards who rushed towards Lu Zheng stopped.

Lu Zheng stared at Empress Dowager Xiang and said, "Cen Jinshuang is my spy of Dakang, and it is also the most successful spy sent by Dakang to Beiyan in recent years! This person is regarded as a trump card by Dakang! I was able to come to Beijing from Dakang because of this person!

However, what I never expected was that Cen Jinshuang was exposed on the day I entered Shangjing and was exposed! He was finished, and there was no end to the nest when he collapsed. All my nails in Dakang disappeared, and I suddenly became a lonely man!

It was nothing, but a lot of things happened later, especially after I entered the prison of the Ministry of Justice and met Cen Jinshuang, I was immediately devastated! Shangjing, which was originally full of factions, suddenly everyone unified, and I had almost no way to survive. In this case, I fled from Shangjing!

But what if I escaped from Shangjing? My ending was even more miserable. If the young lady of the Xue family had not saved me, I would have gone to hell at this time!"

Empress Dowager Xiang stared at Lu Zheng coldly and sneered: "What's wrong with that? You should have died, but you're still worthy of death!"

Lu Zheng sneered and said, "I thought so too, but I became more determined by this idea. Does the Queen Mother know why? Because I suddenly realized that since Cen Jinshuang is so powerful, she has not been discovered in Kyoto for so many years, and she is in a high position, which is difficult for ordinary people to reach.

How could such a person be done in one go? Why did the Empress Dowager find out that this person is a spy? And the time is very clever, neither early nor late. Something happened when I arrived in Beijing! At that time, I not only brought a marriage delegation, but also brought a first-class and important person to Beiyan, and this person was Chu Tianba!

At this time, Cen Jinshuang was finished. Was this for me? I thought it was, but after going through so many things, I had to leave Shangjing and fell into a desperate situation.

When I was facing life and death, I suddenly understood that from the moment I set out to leave Dakang, I was a cannon fodder! Cen Jinshuang is his real target, I am his cannon fodder, haha..."

Lu Zheng laughed loudly, laughing a little crazy. Everyone knelt on the ground and didn't dare to look up. Only Liu Wan looked at Lu Zheng with concern in her heart. She was already scared. Although she had experienced a lot in Beiyan over the years, her problems had not been eliminated.

What's more, today's affairs are related to Lu Zheng's life and death. She was so scared that she was in chaos and didn't know how to end it!

However, Empress Dowager Xiang's face suddenly became serious and said coldly: "My surname is Lu, what do you mean by saying that? Do you think Cen Jinshuang harms you?"

Lu Zheng shook his head and said, "Cen Jinshuang is no longer a slave to Dakang. He has been in Beiyan for so many years. Moreover, he holds a high position in Beiyan, and his status is far higher than his position in Dakang.

Who can harm such a person? I'm afraid Lu Changhe can't get rid of him! This is why he has the drama of using me as cannon fodder!

Cen Jinshuang's identity is so secret, only Lu Changhe knows that the person who wants to kill him is Dakang Xuanjingsi! And I am just cannon fodder!"

Empress Dowager Xiang's expression moved instantly. Lu Zheng's words sounded incredible, but when they thought about it carefully, they could not argue! This incident brought a great blow to Empress Dowager Xiang. After she was furious, she was thinking about it every day.

She was very familiar with the thoughts about Cen Jinshuang, so when Lu Zheng said this, she only needed to think about it for a moment and know that it should be true.

Cen Jinshuang's identity has not even been cracked in Beiyan's most mysterious intelligence agency, so why did something suddenly happen? By chance, Empress Dowager Xiang got accurate news again. Where did this source of information come from?
