emperor truly wanted to send troops to attack the northern border, the 500,000 army he sent would most likely be the garrison troops from Ancheng and Yangcheng, the cities closest to the North Border...Before she could say a word, Wang rushed over eagerly to lift the curtain of the carriage.

But Liu Lan had already made it clear to the people she'd brought with her: unless she herself wanted to get out of the carriage, no one else could force her. And no one was allowed to lift the carriage curtain.

The people sent by An Xuetang have received orders that as long as Empress Liu doesn't make any outrageous demands, they are willing to satisfy her with minor requests.

As Wang shi rushed forward, attempting to lift the curtain of the carriage, a servant from Prince Beijang's Residence immediately reached out and shoved her back.

At her age, Wang couldn't withstand being shoved by such a burly man. She fell straight to the ground, wincing in pain.

Mrs. Wang also wanted to let him go, but the steward whispered in her ear, "If you don't want to be punished by Madam later, just stop making a fuss."

Upon hearing this from Liu Lan, Liu Yan'er clenched her fists and lowered her voice, saying, "What are you trying to do"

Liu Lan let out a chuckle. Immediately after, she took a step towards Liu Yaner and, without saying a word, slapped her hard across the face.writhed in pain, fear of death reflected in her eyes."Wait a minute," one of the people on the ground finally spoke.Han Yun's gaze followed his line of sight, and he saw the man struggling to sit up....
