Upon the Imperial Court.

Every civil and martial minister, including The Queen Dowager and the young Lord, looked with astonishment on Yu Qinghan’s face.

An elderly minister exclaimed in surprise, “It is absolutely Princess Zhaoyang! I saw her in the Imperial Court three years ago. There is no mistake.”

“It is her. There is no mistake. I saw the Princess in the crowd at the grand military review when the kingdom was founded,” a young military official recalled.

“Three years passed, yet she maintains her heroic spirit and her vigor is even stronger.”

“The Princess has returned, then the young Lord…’ “This is not a matter we should concern ourselves with.”

The moment they set eyes on the Princess.

Many ministers have already guessed the Princess’s return signals trouble.

Far from being a loyal army to the King, they’ve come prepared for battle.

The mother and son on the Dragon Chair are likely…

Of course, these thoughts belong only in their minds. They are family matters of the royal family, in which they have no right to interfere.

While everyone was scrutinizing Yu Qinghan, Yu Qinghan was also observing them.

Especially the little brat on the Dragon Chair.

Yu Qinghan looked at the young Lord, deep in thought.

This little boy must be her own nephew.

It seems her second brother really passed away.

The whole of Xia Country is now ruled by a child of a few years old.

It’s admittedly absurd.

The attitude of the courtiers towards Yu Qinghan remains unclear to her.

The only thing that she’s certain about is that she returned for the throne.

Compared with her brother’s ambition, her motivation is purer.

By now, she has been forced into this position where Xia Country is on the verge of extinction and she had to step forward.

Even for the common people, she has to fight for the throne.

She has the power to do so.

The Changning Imperial Army is in the city; combined with her prestige in the army, she can take the throne with ease.

The Queen Mother behind the bead curtain saw the vigor in Yu Qinghan and guessed the real reason for her return.

Although she did not concern herself with state affairs and was not deeply informed, she was not foolish.

Princess Zhaoyang, who has retreated into obscurity, has been missing for so long, and now leading a great army into the capital unveiling her true intentions; even a fool could see it.

The Queen Dowager spoke slowly, her gaze filled with laughter: “Zhaoyang, I’m glad you’re all right. The Master of this Palace thought you were gone. The previous Emperor was truly worried.”

The tone of her voice suggested that past affairs were no longer of concern. However, she indirectly mentioned Emperor Wenzong, hoping that it would give the other party some apprehension.

“The Queen Dowager’s concern is truly appreciated. Right now, with Xia Country facing the Misfortune, I inevitably had to step in. If my father were still alive, I am certain that he wouldn’t want to see Xia Country like this,”

Yu Qinghan responded without haste, invoked the First Emperor, and declared her legitimacy.

Watching the two speaking from a distance, many ministers sensed a sense of confrontation.

However, they could not reveal what was happening from the surface.

Although the Queen Dowager was once the ruler of the Inner Palace and knew something about the power of politics, she had anticipated the implied meaning behind Yu Qinghan’s words.

Princess Zhaoyang not only came for the throne, but she also intended to purge the country of alien tribes.

She, undoubtedly, would be the best candidate to save Xia Kingdom from ruin.

As a former general and the God of Army of Xia Country, there was nothing

that she could not accomplish when she led the army.

Once she could withstand this crisis, Princess Zhaoyang would amass a large amount of prestige in the Court and the Commonalty, which would allow her to ascend the throne effortlessly.

But how will she treat me?

The Queen Dowager’s thoughts were straightforward.

She had lost all desire and ambition for the throne.

Her husband had died on the throne and naturally, she wouldn’t want her son to follow in his footsteps.

All she wished for was to raise her son, then live a life full of wealth and honor.

She was never an ambitious woman.

She knew her self-worth.

She couldn’t contend with Yu Qinghan.

Before that, she had to secure enough protection to ensure her situation.

After pausing for a while, The Queen Dowager couldn’t help but ask:

“What plans does the Princess have now? Do you have the confidence to deal with the alien tribe in the North? Is our safety assured?”

Not only was it an inquiry about the safety of the capital, but it also indirectly inquired about Yu Qinghan’s attitude towards herself.

She needed to know the other party’s position.

Yu Qinghan also understood this, and answered lightly: “Constructing fortifications, leading a large army, and resisting the offensive enemy. With me here, don’t worry. I will surely protect the capital, and the safety of the Queen Dowager is no problem.”

What she meant was if you hand over the throne and the control of the military, I will guarantee the safety of the mother and son.

After hearing this, The Queen Dowager remained silent for a moment, then asked again:

“What about the wolf cavalry of the alien tribe, Princess? Is there confidence in dealing with them?”

“I’ve heard that many states and counties in the North have been brutally devastated, with the wolf cavalry coming and going freely. They are as unpredictable as lightning strikes, feared to be difficult to deal with.”

She was also curious about Yu Qinghan’s opinion and confidence in this war.

Apart from the Queen Dowager, all ministers and the innocent young Lord also looked towards Yu Qinghan, evidently placing their hopes on her.

Facing the eyes of everyone, Yu Qinghan was not in the least bit nervous, standing tall, her face was calm and composed.

“If the enemy advances, I also advance,” she said.

“This battle, if fought, will surely be won.”

The two phrases, revealing her heroic spirit, showcased her confidence and determination.

The confidence that emanated from her touched even the surrounding ministers.

The young officials were moved by her gaze, their hearts full of admiration.

The scholar-like handsome young man who had initially proposed a critique looked at Yu Qinghan with admiration in his eyes..
