All I can say is this. Old Mrs. Xu frowned, her face a little indescribably solemn.

Judging from Mr. Chen’s words, the person behind the scenes was not Chu Tingchuan!?

She pointed her finger on the small coffee table, and looked at the four-horn incense burner of the purple gold auspicious beast that was smoking on the coffee table, and she was slightly in a daze.

The prince's wife didn't dare to interrupt and waited anxiously. She waited until Old Mrs. Xu raised her eyebrows and urged softly: "Mother, let me say something. Now our whole family is in dire straits. If this continues, I don't know what the situation will be like."

You can't really just sit there and wait for death, right?

A few days ago, an impeachment was reported on the front line, saying that the British Duke was unable to deal with it effectively, so he rebeled and fought back. He vented his anger by the captured innocent people and killed these innocent people outside the city in front of the soldiers on the city gate tower, causing public resentment.

Now the rebels are in great power, which has become a reason for the previous dynasty to criticize the British Duke for failing to lead troops. It is said that this disaster was caused by the British Duke being too eager for quick success and instant benefits, which caused heavy losses to the court.

The war on the front line was tight, and the court had been raising military rations for the front line.

But the problem is that not only are there wars in Yunnan, but the Oirat in the north and the Japanese pirates along the coast must fight and train troops. These days, Emperor Jiaping was chased by the cabinet for money.

The Ministry of Revenue has been under great pressure, and on the coast, at least the fight against Japanese pirates has achieved some success, which can be regarded as spending money on the blade, and the effect can be seen. The Oirat side has also been effective since they adopted the strategy of raising the little prince, and has been quiet for a long time.

At this time, it was fine that the news of a great victory in Yunnan had been heard before, but the rumors that had always been unfavorable to the Duke of England were finally relieved a lot.

After all, a great victory is always a joy, and since it is said to be a great victory, it proves that the battle is about to be over, so naturally there will be less money to use.

But at this moment, the front line has changed, and the situation is developing in an unfavorable direction.

With such a fuss, the front line in Yunnan was even longer and smelly, as if it had become a bottomless pit, and it was possible to fill it in as much money as possible.

Of course, this result cannot satisfy the people of the court.

So even the old friends and old subordinates of the Duke of England had come forward to speak for the Duke of England at this time, but it did not have much effect.

After all, Emperor Jiaping and the cabinet are now the ones who least want something wrong in Yunnan.

The fight against a small rebel army was delayed for so long, which was inconsistent with the reputation of the British Duke who has always been brave and good at fighting.

The prince's wife has been listening to the guests in the mansion analyses the situation with the old lady and the second master these days, and knowing that if this continues, the situation in the court will only become increasingly unfavorable for the British Duke.

She couldn't help panic.

Old Mrs. Xu knew what she was worried about, but at this moment, there were too few things they could do.

After all, the key lies with the British Duke himself. If the old man can win this time, it would be fine. Everything can be said to be back. But if the master still loses in the front, then the British Duke's Mansion may be really worrying.

Although Emperor Jiaping had a good impression of the British Duke and had always trusted him very much, this matter was extraordinary and he could not have been able to get through it by intentionally covering up.

Besides, if things get like this, I’m afraid Chu Tingchuan will also contribute to it.

This is really a wolf in front and a tiger in the back. Even if Mrs. Xu is smart and capable, she couldn't help but sigh at this time. However, she has lived for so many years. Although she has never paid much attention to the outside world, she still has some foundation and quickly grasped the key to the matter.

That is Eunuch Tang who went to supervise the battle.

The British Duke has many years of experience in leading troops. He is definitely not the kind of person who does not know how to deal with relationships and is attacked from both sides. No one has ever said anything about the strategy of the British Duke staying in his door before, which shows that.

Since no one came out to impeach the most difficult time, and now that the battle has been won, Eunuch Tang suddenly came out to impeach?

This must be someone instructing you behind the scenes.

Who can instruct the disciples of the popular Eunuch Xu?

Old Mrs. Xu frowned and looked at Butler Xu.

Butler Xu immediately understood what Mrs. Xu meant. He shook his head: "Old lady, my subordinates have already tried to find a way to inquire. Eunuch Xu has never expressed any opinions on this matter."

That's not Xu Dongying.

But since it’s not him, who can let Eunuch Tang do this?

Old Mrs. Xu quickly thought of a candidate and couldn't help but frown.

The prince's wife was very worried. Seeing that Mrs. Xu had not spoken for a long time, she couldn't help but become even more scared, but she didn't dare to ask too much, and just sobbed quietly.

Butler Xu sighed. It is really not possible to have only women in the family. The prince’s wife can show her majesty when she is a housekeeper, but if she goes out, how can she show up in public?

But Old Mrs. Xu is too old, and she has too big goals when she goes out.

When the old lady Xu heard Butler Xu sigh, she came to her senses. She nodded thoughtfully and said, "Since Eunuch Xu doesn't know about this matter, since Eunuch Xu doesn't know about it, Eunuch Tang goes to do it. Who is making trouble behind the scenes?"

In fact, she had a vague guess in her heart.

Butler Xu didn't hide it and said directly: "Old lady, please tell the truth. When we sent Lu Guangping out of the city, who else knew? What reason did we force him to help?"

The prince's wife stopped crying and looked at Butler Xu thoughtfully, her thoughts became a little confused for a moment.

Of course she knew about Lu Guangping. If she counted it, she tried her best to send Lu Guangping away with the prince. In order for Lu Guangping to leave smoothly, the third girl from the second house was still dead.

And of course she knew who the prince went to look for at that time.

....Zhang Qing?

Eunuch Zhang...

The prince's wife was a little disbelief.

Zhang Qing has always had a good relationship with the Duke of England! He was a young eunuch at the time. When he served in Concubine Sheng's palace, if he hadn't been taking care of the Duke of England, how could he have gone so fast and far?

And just over the years, the Duke of England's Duke's Mansion has nothing to do with Zhang Qing. Why did he actually turn around and deal with the Duke's Mansion?!

She looked at Old Lady Xu in shock, but saw that Old Lady Xu was not surprised at all. She seemed to have expected it and laughed without any surprise.
