The harem is full of gossip, Your Majesty, you are being cheated Ch. 265

Yue Lin shook his head, he looked a little dazed, "No... nothing. It's just that the weather is a little hot, and I feel a little dizzy."

Jiang Zhimiao showed a puzzled expression.

It's a little hot?

Today was a cool autumn day with a suitable temperature.

But Yue Lin repeatedly emphasized that he was fine, and Jiang Zhimiao could only regard this as a man's strange self-esteem, and she hurried to continue reading gossip.

[Although the first gossip is a little obscure, it is still very obscure if you think about it carefully.]

[Fortunately, I am very smart and I still found the clues! There is only one truth, Empress Dowager also has an old lover in private! Moreover, the two of them were secretly in love and had a child! Now, I seem to understand why Empress Dowager treats Yue Hua so well...]

[This is what happened. Although Yue Hua is actually Chen Jingming's son. However, the late emperor thought that Yue Hua was his bloodline with the princess of the previous dynasty, and was determined to help him ascend the throne. On the other hand, Empress Dowager and her old lover were also in true love. She didn't know that her child had been strangled to death by the late emperor, and thought that Yue Hua was her bloodline with her old lover, so she naturally favored Yue Hua.]

[After a series of coincidences, Yue Hua became the group's favorite... but in fact... it was just a misunderstanding. Chen Jingming became the final winner.]

Jiang Zhimiao was also stunned.

She could only say that this emperor and empress couple played really well.

Yue Lin had been completely numb.

When he was a child, he always wondered if he had done something wrong, so he was hated by his father and mother.

He still occasionally recalled the grievances and pains he felt at that time.

But this time, Yue Lin's heart was only numb.

If the late emperor knew that his youngest son, whom he had high hopes for, was actually Chen Jingming's child.

If Empress Dowager knew that her real son was strangled to death by the late emperor himself not long after he was born.

How would these two people react?

Yue Lin felt that when Empress Dowager went to the underworld, she would probably fight with the late emperor.

'You idiot, I don't even want to say anything. You have raised a b*stard for more than ten years, and you have been planning for so long, eager to give him the throne.'

'How good are you? Your b*stard has been strangled to death by me a long time ago! Haven't you loved a b*stard for more than ten years?'

Then, the two of them tore into a ball.

Yue Lin already had the picture in his mind.

Thinking about it, he actually laughed.

Suddenly he felt... not so wronged.

He was indeed an unlucky child, and the late emperor and Empress Dowager didn't seem to be much better.

Jiang Zhimiao analyzed it and looked at the second gossip.

[After Yue Hua left the Su Mansion, he immediately passed the news to Dong Xiao, the governor of Zhenbei Army, through his secret spy network!]

Yue Lin's expression was stern.

The northern tribes have been trying to move south, so in addition to setting up defenses in the west to guard against Luo Country. The northern defense line was also of paramount importance.

The north was mainly guarded by General Zhenbei An Hechang, but An Hechang's troops are mainly used to guard the border. There was another person in the three northern provinces who held military power, and that was the military governor Dong Xiao. Because there were many wars in the north, Dong Xiao had more troops than other military governor.

The late emperor arranged this to facilitate Dong Xiao to dispatch and support the border in time.

But now it seemed that this was clearly a backup plan he left for Yue Hua.

Wait...

Yue Lin was stunned for a moment.

If he only looked at this gossip, he would definitely not think in other directions.

But combined with the first gossip, Yue Lin suddenly became amazed.

When he was young, he had heard rumors that his mother and Dong Xiao grew up together. If his mother had not been suddenly selected to enter the palace, the two would have been married.

So... Empress Dowager's old lover...

Was it Dong Xiao?

Yue Lin was shocked.

If he thought about it in context, this was probably the case!

Yue Lin's expression also became serious.

It was obvious that Yue Hua was no longer going to endure it.

In the past few days, he began to mobilize all the forces he could mobilize, and then he was going to have a palace coup.

This was actually expected by Yue Lin.

Now Yue Hua was still in the Capital, but his power was outside the Capital!

If Yue Hua was forcibly arrested and executed, the power he left outside would be completely out of control.

Dong Xiao thought Yue Hua was his biological son, and he would definitely rebel once Yue Hua died!

Luo Country was still watching covetously. If there was another civil strife, Yong Dynasty would be in danger!

This civil strife must be quickly quelled, otherwise Luo Country would definitely take advantage of the opportunity to invade.

The border between the two countries also needed to be strengthened and could not be relaxed.

In this way, he could only mobilize a few troops, the garrison troops could not be moved, and the Palace Guards and the Imperial Guards* were not completely under his command. Given the distance between Dong Xiao's army and the Capital, the troops from distant prefectures and counties could not catch up, so they could only be mobilized nearby.

(*A palace guard is a group of troops that protects a royal family member, while an imperial guard is a special group of troops that are typically associated with an emperor or empress.)

It's not necessarily that he was afraid of them.

It's just... if he was not careful, it's easy to fall into a long-term war.

This was not what Yue Lin wanted.

In this battle, the rebellion must be quelled quickly.

Yue Lin couldn't help but fall into thought.

Jiang Zhimiao's expression also became slightly serious.

Great Yong had ten military governors who control the military power in the local area. The late emperor trusted Dong Xiao, so the city closest to the Capital was handed over to Dong Xiao to guard, and Dong Xiao controlled the most troops.
