Emperor Qin's eyes flickered.
Back then, when he ascended to the throne, his first imperial decree was not to reward his imperial brother, Chang Qin Wenzheng, with North Snow County, but to execute Chang Qin Wenzheng.
However, for some unknown reason, Chang Qin Wenshuo managed to reach North Snow County alive.
Chang Qin Wenzheng, the master of North Snow County, both scholarly and martial, was a thorn in Emperor Qin's side.
All these years, he had been using every means possible to get rid of Chang Qin Wenshuo.
The Empress Dowager Duaan, long dwelling in the Imperial City, accustomed to intrigue and deceit, surely understood what had occurred.
"Zheng'er, was it your order for Shuo'er to be assassinated back then, almost costing him his life?" she walked to Emperor Qin's side and whispered in his ear.
Emperor Qin paused, not responding.
Not arguing was akin to admitting.
The Empress Dowager Duaan felt her world spin, her body swayed.
