Chapter 2867
The empress sighed and said, "Anqi, the nobles are deeply rooted in the Northern Yi. If they are involved in the interests of the nobles, they will join together. This is also the reason why your supporters do not speak for you. Therefore, it is difficult for us, mother and daughter to weaken the nobles' power. If we turn against each other directly, it is a forgery. This is the crime of deceiving the king. If we do not kill them, they will become more courageous. If we kill them, we will completely turn against the nobles. Then the nobles will rebel together and rebellion will be natural. The mother does not want to see the chaos in the Northern Yi and kill each other, so we did not expose it."
Princess Angel could understand the empress, so she asked, "Does the Queen Mother really want to kill Xiao Zhan according to the will of the nobles?"
The empress shook her head: "I don't want to kill, and I don't want Mu Ruxue's achievements to be destroyed."
"Do you know? The reason why I lived in the palace in the past and didn't like to go out was that I didn't want to see the country ruled by me. Beggars everywhere, and I could touch the bones of the frozen silence wherever I went."
"But recently, I have to go out for a walk for three days and two days because I can't see beggars on the streets. The civilians are wearing Muruxue Clothing Factory's clothing, all of whom are clean and energetic. Walking on the streets of Beijing, there is a row of lively and prosperous scenes. Civilians have money to go to restaurants, and civilian children have money to buy candied haws to eat. Seeing this prosperous scene, I feel very relieved. I hope that every city in Beiyi can be like this, lively and prosperous, rather than mourning everywhere."
"I don't want to kill Xiao Zhan's family, but ruined this hard-won earth-shaking change."
"But if you don't kill, the nobles will have to rebel me, so I'm in a dilemma now and don't know what to do. So I come to your East Palace and ask you to have a heart-to-heart talk. By the way, I want to talk to Xiao Zhan and Mu Ruxue. I want to discuss with them and their husbands, how can the nobles not kill them and protect this result? You can ask someone to invite them and their husbands over now."
After hearing this, Princess Anqi was relieved and said with a smile: "I'm not hiding it from the Queen Mother, Xiao Zhan and his wife have come to the East Palace long ago. They have also read the letter from the Marquis of Pingxi to Xiao Zhan to their ministers!"
After saying that, she took out the letter and handed it over to the empress.
Then he shouted: "Xiao Zhan, Ruxue, you two come down!"
After the empress read the content of the letter, Xiao Zhan and Mu Ruxue also came downstairs and knelt down to the empress.
"Long live the grass people, see Her Majesty the Queen!"
"Flat."
"Thank you Empress!"
The couple stood up and the empress asked, "Pingxi Hou asked you to go back, what are your plans?"
Mu Ruxue said truthfully: "Return to the empress, our husband and wife are to leave the property to Princess Anqi to take care of. We will go back to Xiliang. After all, there are Xiao Zhan concubines and daughters of Xiliang. Who should be clear about the empress. If we don't go back, we are afraid that King Yu will be unfavorable to Xiliang. Then Xiao Zhan's concubines and daughters of Xiao Zhan may be in danger of their lives. Xiao Zhan has always valued love and does not want his concubines to be killed, so he wants to go back to resolve the hatred with King Yu. When the hatred is over, our family will return to Beiyi and help the Beiyi people live a good life. After all, the Beiyi people have sacrificed their lives to save our family. We will not ignore them. We also ask the empress to approve us to return to Xiliang first!"
The empress looked embarrassed and said, "I want to approve you to go home, but the nobles will not let you go back alive. Besides, if you go back, the industry will be handed over to Angel, and she will not be able to protect the industry. The nobles will ask for the industry controlled by Angel to divide it to the nobles on the grounds that the industry controlled by Angel will endanger their interests."
"Because of the rules set by the ancestors, the Nalan family only enjoys the imperial power, and all expenses are all allocated by the treasury. There is a certain amount of money to the Nalan family. The Nalan family members cannot compete with the nobles for wealth and other benefits. Therefore, your industry can only be controlled by you. Angel can help you defend the industry, but if the industry is handed over to anyone, it will not be preserved. Therefore, you cannot leave. If you leave, your efforts will be burned, and more than one billion employees will not enjoy the benefits you give. The nobles will deprive them of their welfare, at most they will eat two meals a day, and don't even think about their salary. At that time, the business will be taken over by the nobles, hundreds of millions of civilians who run business will be unemployed, and the employees' families will return to their previous situation of having no food to eat. All your efforts have become the wedding dress of the nobles."
Mu Ruxue was in a hurry to get rid of the tiger.
