The East Empress Dowager stared unblinkingly at Zhu Wencong, herself being part of the Niugulu family and the Fucha family belonging to the Xianghuang Banner under the Upper Three Banners previously represented by the Fucha family in cooperation with Jiuding.
The East Empress Dowager had always been skeptical of the collaboration between the clan and Jiuding, after all, the Westerners are not to be trusted, they are always outsiders.
What was thought to be a guaranteed profitable venture, unexpectedly Zhu Wencong mentioned a risk, which couldn't help but make people stop in their tracks.
The Yehenara clan of the West Empress Dowager belonged to the Xianglan Banner of the Lower Five Banners and was later elevated to the Xianghuang Banner due to the prestige brought by the West Empress Dowager's son (Emperor Tongzhi).
