A Military Doctor Became a Stepmom in Ancient Times Chapter 258 – 258 Plan

258 Plan

Ning Yue and Jiang Ying went to the empress dowager’s place to pick up the two children. The empress dowager was originally playing games with the two children. When she saw the emperor, Yuan Hui, Jiang Ying, and Ning Yue coming over, the empress dowager immediately felt sad.

Why did they chat so quickly? She wanted to play with the two children. Why were they here to pick them up? The empress dowager couldn’t figure it out.

“Imperial Grandmother, I’m here to pick up the two children,” Jiang Ying said.

“Go, go, go. Take them back quickly. I have a headache.” The empress dowager was furious. She wanted to turn around and leave.

However, the two children were so cute. If she really turned around and left, she did not know when she would see them again.

“Thank you for taking care of the two children, Imperial Grandmother,” Jiang Ying said with a smile.

Jiang Ying and Ning Yue picked Xiaobao and Xiaobei up and left with Yuan Hui.

The Empress Dowager could tell that the emperor’s expression was very bad and quickly asked, “What happened to Ning Yue?”

Although the empress dowager could not tell what was wrong with Ning Yue, she could tell that Yuan Hui’s expression was not good.

The Empress Dowager guessed that the only person in the entire Great Yun Nation who could make Yuan Hui in a bad mood was Ning Yue, so she felt that this matter had something to do with Ning Yue.

The emperor explained what had just happened with a dark expression. “I originally thought that Consort Xian was innocent and could be kept around, but from the looks of it, this innocence almost harmed me.”

The Great Yun Nation was not afraid of Russia, but there was no need to become enemies at this time. Most importantly, Ning Yue and Jiang Ying were about to get married. If the two countries became enemies at this time, it would cause an unnecessary dispute.

If the dispute escalated into a war, the people would suffer.

Moreover, if the Black City Kingdom took the opportunity to attack them, it would be a loss.

“It seems that it’s time to reorganize your harem, Emperor,” the Empress Dowager said.

The harem was not peaceful, and the previous dynasty would be in turmoil. She had to teach the empress a lesson.

“I’ve already told the Empress. She’ll take care of it.” The emperor rubbed the corners of his eyebrows with a headache.

He was too tired these days. “Mother, I plan to abdicate to the crown prince on the first day of next month. I want to rest well.”

“Really?” The Empress Dowager looked at the Emperor in shock.

The emperor nodded. “I’m too tired. After these days of observation, the crown prince is an expert in dealing with government affairs. I can leave it to him without worry.”

“It’s fine as long as you decide. Also, before you abdicate him, you have to clear the obstacles. Otherwise, it will affect the crown prince greatly,” the empress dowager said meaningfully.

In the early stages of the crown prince’s ascension, some people would think that the crown prince’s foundation was unstable and come out to cause trouble.

When he first ascends the throne, the crown prince will have many things to deal with. If there were more troubles like this, it would catch him off guard.

“I know. I’m doing it,” the emperor said.

Thinking of those things, the emperor’s head hurt even more.

“What were you and Yuan Hui talking about?” the empress dowager asked.

“I told him about the Black City Kingdom.” The emperor selectively told the Empress Dowager about his conversation with Yuan Hui.

So the emperor was planning to deal with the Black City Kingdom. The Empress Dowager sighed slowly. Over the years, the Great Yun Nation had suffered a lot at the hands of the Black City Kingdom. It was reasonable for the emperor to want to deal with the Black City Kingdom.

“By the way, Mother, I remember you mentioning that my father’s Imperial Concubine Chen has a cousin who is from the Black City Kingdom. Is this person still around?” the emperor asked.

The empress dowager was stunned. Consort Chen’s cousin? She frowned hard and tried to remember. There seemed to be such a person in her memory.

“She should still be around. By the way, she seems to be from Marquis An’s family. Her mother seems to be the princess of the Black City Kingdom or the daughter of a noble. I forgot,” the Empress Dowager said.

Marquis An again! The emperor was so angry that he almost exploded.

Wait!

Something had already happened to Marquis An. Other than Consort Xian, An Ning, and An Yuan, the entire nine generations had been wiped out. The person he was looking for might already be dead.

The emperor’s eyes widened. He had miscalculated.

“Mother, I wonder who Consort Chen’s cousin is to Marquis An.” The Emperor suppressed the grievance in his heart and asked.

“Oh, I forgot. How about this? Send someone to the General’s Residence to ask An Ning. An Ning is Marquis An’s daughter. She’ll more or less know.”

The emperor nodded, feeling that it would be better for Jiang Ying to go.
