The failure to save her mother from the tower brought a great blow to Jiang Ruyue.

There are even some people who are in a trance and have no intention of dealing with government affairs.

It's like losing spiritual support, getting by every day, like walking with the corpse.

And the people are getting more and more emaciated.

The ministers were very worried, and came up with various ways to hope that His Majesty would get out of their sorrows, but to no avail.

Just looking at Her Majesty's sad and thin appearance, serving the loyal ministers, they all felt guilty and tearful.

But no matter what way you go, no matter what you do, your majesty still hasn't laughed again.

Until the arrival of a man.

This man gradually untied the knot in Her Majesty's heart and let Her Majesty come out.

White flying.

Mr. Bai, who is famous in Wancheng Country, has significantly improved his situation after coming to Xiaoyao Palace.

"Teacher, why are you here, you are out of customs?"

When she saw the teacher who appeared in front of her, Jiang Ruyue was very surprised.

"Yes, I'm out of customs, so I'll come and see you by the way. ”

Zhou Ming nodded and said, in recent years, he has been in retreat, rarely paying attention to the affairs of the world, after a series of big news happened in Dongyuanzhou, he was quite taken aback, and heard that Empress Ruyue was overly sad and worrying, so he came over to take a look.

Seeing the teacher who helped her a lot and came to visit her in person, Jiang Ruyue's heart warmed, and she also found someone to talk to, retreated from others, and confided in him the pain in her heart.

"Why are they still so afraid of my mother after all these decades?"

"Why don't they just want to believe that bad people can become good people?"

"In the few days she came out, she didn't hurt anyone, why are they more and more afraid?"

"They all have eyes, why don't they even believe what they see?"

Jiang Ruyue asked many reasons in a row, and her face was full of loss and confusion.

"Forehead ......"

Zhou Ming thought for a while and said, "Maybe it has something to do with those people, they are all weak." ”

"The weak are naturally afraid of the strong, especially those who can control their life and death, in addition to fear, there are also doubts that are difficult to resolve. ”

"If this strong man is a definite villain, then this doubt will become anxiety and fear, even extreme fear. ”

This kind of fear cannot be dispelled with words, and it is difficult to dispel it even with actions. ”

"It's true that bad people can become good people, and good people can become bad people, but there are also many bad people who remain bad people, even if they get better for a few days once in a while, and then they will become bad people again. ”

Seeing Jiang Ruyue open her mouth to refute, Zhou Ming waved his hand to stop: "Listen to me." ”

"In fact, by now, it doesn't matter whether your mother is a good person or a bad person, what matters is whether her destructive power is still there? Is it possible for her to control the supreme power and control the life and death of hundreds of millions of people?"

"If you can solve these two core problems, everything will be solved. ”

Jiang Ruyue thought for a while, nodded and said, "Teacher, do you mean to say: Unless my mother's cultivation is no longer powerful and I step down from the throne, it is possible to rescue my mother?"

Jiang Ruyue was able to understand at one point, and the reason why the people opposed her releasing her mother was because her mother's cultivation was too high and no one could control her, and the other was that as the empress, if she was controlled and influenced by her mother and did absurd and brutal things, the consequences would be unimaginable...... Unless she is not the empress, even if she is controlled by the female demon, the damage will not be too great.

"Yes, this is the only way to dispel people's doubts. ”

Zhou Ming nodded and said, there is no way, this is human nature, you can only obey, and you can't change human nature.

"Then I know what to do!"

"I then drafted an edict of abdication and completely abdicated from the throne. ”

Jiang Ruyue walked to the official desk, took out a blank edict, took out the brush in the pen holder, and prepared to write the content of the announcement.

She didn't want to do it anymore, she was tired of it, it was boring, there was no interest at all, and there was no hope, so it was better to abdicate completely.

"Hey, what are you doing in such a hurry?"

Zhou Ming hurriedly stopped her, "If you want to abdicate, it's not this time to retreat, if you retreat now, the Eastern Yuan Kingdom will only completely collapse, and you will have to work for at least another fifty years." ”

"During this time, you must work diligently to run this empire with all your might, so that it will grow stronger day by day, and only when this empire is strong enough not to fear the monks of your mother's level, and strong enough that the people in the empire are full of confidence, and everyone in the empire is full of confidence, you can step down from the throne. ”

"Considering your decades of contributions, the officials and the people are just a stone, and they will also be influenced by your filial piety, and when the time comes, if you take your mother out of the tower, what else can they say?"

"So, it's for your mother's sake that you have to sit in this position. ”

Zhou Ming said.

"Ah, fifty years to go......"

Jiang Ruyue made a bitter face, stuck out her tongue and said, this is really too tormenting.

However, the knot in her heart has been completely opened.

Fifty years is not a long time, but she still has to wait.

In order to save her mother, even if she insists on it for a hundred years, she can do it!

So she quickly got out of the negative state, threw herself into serious work, and finally had a smile on her face and returned to normal.

After the ministers and officials saw it, they finally put their hearts at ease, ran to tell each other, cheered, and smiled with satisfaction one by one.

Zhou Ming also stayed in the Xiaoyao Palace, was warmly entertained for a few days, and said several times that he wanted to leave, but Jiang Ruyue tried his best to keep him and told him to stay for a few more days before leaving.

Yet this afternoon.

In a pavilion, Zhou Ming and Jiang Ruyue were drinking tea and playing a game.

"Boom~"

Suddenly there was a loud bang in the back mountain.

and the screeching sound of "click".

Then there were several screams of terror.

"The tower is down! the tower is down!"

"The Demon Suppression Tower has fallen!"

"It's over! The devil can't be closed, the devil is coming out!"

What the?

Zhou Ming and Jiang Ruyue's faces changed suddenly.

Turn your head to look at the sky to the west.

Sure enough, the top of the tower, which used to be a large section of the tower, has disappeared.

A gust of wind swept up, and Zhou Ming and Jiang Ruyue had disappeared into the pavilion, turning into two afterimages and flying towards the back mountain at high speed.

Quickly ascended to a thousand meters in the air, and people also arrived at the back mountain.

The scene in front of them shocked Zhou Ming and Jiang Ruyue.

The Demon Suppression Tower has fallen.

The Demon Suppression Tower has really fallen.

It is cut off from the middle, and the lower half is still erected on the ground.

The lower half had already smashed down the mountain, leaving behind a huge crater that looked like an earthquake ditch.

This sudden upheaval made Zhou Ming stunned.

"Mother!"

Jiang Ruyue rushed down directly, worried that her mother would be hurt, she swooped down at high speed

"Don't be impulsive. ”

Zhou Ming followed and rushed down.

"Bang!"

About a kilometer away from the ground, Jiang Ruyue seemed to have hit a glass wall, and with a loud bang, her body and head crashed into it, and the violent dizziness made her fall straight down.

Fortunately, Zhou Ming followed and caught her.

"Domain space?"

"A strong person in the trance?"

Zhou Ming looked at the low sky not far away, and two figures facing each other out of thin air met his eyes.

Suddenly, his pupils shrank.

It's her?
