Seeing that the emperor was sitting above and did not speak, even Jing Zhengming couldn't help but wipe his cold sweat. How could he have forgotten that now the emperor is the most taboo thing to force the palace, after all, the emperor is now at that age.

Now with such a lineup, are they forcing Chu Heng to abdicate? Thinking of this, Jing Zhengming's back was even more cold sweat, and he didn't dare to say another word.

"Qi Anhou, as a courtier, you are guilty of participating in my queen like this?"

Finally, after about a cup of tea, Chu Heng suddenly opened his mouth, and as soon as his words landed, it made Jing Zhengming directly break out in a cold sweat. Looking at Chu Heng's meaning, it was clear that he was going to ask him for his guilt.

"As a courtier, don't you know that officials of the previous dynasty can't meddle in the affairs of the harem? If you were so serious, I wouldn't be able to save your face. Chu Heng took a sip of tea and said directly.

"Li Ya, go, order to go down, dismiss Jing Zhengming Qi Anhou, let him receive a thousand taels of silver, and go home to retire!"

As soon as the Emperor's decree was uttered, it could no longer be changed. Seeing that this generation of Qi Anhou was directly removed from his official position by Chu Heng, he wiped a cold sweat with Leng Sui next to him.

Fortunately, when the emperor was angry, she did not rush over recklessly, making the emperor angry. Otherwise, I'm afraid that this anger will be vented on her.

Hearing the emperor's words. Jing Zhengming sat on the ground blankly. Fortunately, it didn't hit him too hard. Not to mention anything else, but this queen is only participated. I'm afraid that the turmoil in the harem will not be too small in the future.

Officials of all dynasties know that if there is a big turmoil in the harem, even the previous dynasty will not be spared. A large part of each generation of officials will be purged and the chaos of the harem will be paved with blood. Now, he was able to get out of the way, which is also a good result.

Moreover, there is also a fief given to him by Rong Chu. In the future, it will not be a problem to provide for the elderly.

When Jing Zhengming thought of this, he cheered up again and knelt down deeply in front of Chu Heng. After kowtowing a few times, Fang Cai glanced at the golden Fengtian Hall with affection, and walked out of the place where he had served all his life under the leadership of Li Ya.

Seeing that Jing Zhengming was removed from his official position, Jing Shengwu did not say anything. She only pursed her lips and knelt in place. Waiting for the fall of Emperor Chu Heng.

In fact. The purpose of coming here today is to let the emperor know their motives, so as to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger; One is to eliminate this Jing Zhengming.

After all, Jing Zhengming has been a Qi Anhou for many years, and the power officials behind him are intertwined. If you can't erase this court, I'm afraid that the variables in this court will not be small.

Moreover, the matter of Rong Wangfu back then, although Jing Zhengming didn't know that the mastermind behind the scenes might be the emperor. But Jing Shengwu is almost nine points sure. Back then, the affairs of Rong Wangfu made such a big move, as an emperor. How could Chu Heng not know?

Besides, it can't be said that Chu Heng secretly instructed him. After all, the power of Rong Wangfu was too big back then, and he had heavy troops. If you wait until Rong Chu is born, it is not impossible for Rong Wangfu to raise the flag against Chu Heng, support the son of the first queen to ascend to the throne, and coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes!

This is the most taboo thing for all emperors.

"A few of you, although you are not the mastermind, but you are only afraid that you have moved some thoughts that should not be moved by Jing Zhengming's side. Back then, the matter of Rong Wangfu was too much involved, and it was difficult for me to start for a while. Go back first, and I'll give you an explanation. ”

Looking at the few people kneeling below, Chu Heng rubbed his brows at the moment and said very tiredly. Seeing this scene, Jing Shengwu got up quickly and gave Chu Heng the pill that had been nested in his purse respectfully.

Seeing the pill box, a strange light flashed in Chu Heng's eyes. He took out one of the pills in the box, put it directly in his mouth and swallowed it slowly. With the entrance of the pill, his expression seemed to be much better.

Then, Chu Heng leaned on his incense burner, as if he looked tired and needed to take a few deep puffs of this cigarette to lift his spirits. After taking a few big breaths, the ruddy color on his face receded slightly.

Keenly aware of this scene, Jing Shengwu frowned and didn't say much. Waiting for everyone to retreat from this Fengtian Temple, she tightly twisted the brocade handkerchief in her hand.

"If you haven't smelled the wrong smell, then the purple burning golden ambergris seems to be a little wrong." Until he walked to the gate of Fengtian Palace, Jing Shengwu was still thinking about this matter.

In the past, the purple burning gold ambergris incense used by Chu Heng was a unique craft in this palace. Ordinary ambergris incense is already extremely valuable, and every inch of incense is golden, but Chu Heng's purple burning gold ambergris incense is afraid that it has reached the point where it is difficult to find a thousand gold.

This ambergris is good for the human body, let alone this purple burning gold ambergris? On weekdays, Jing Shengwu came to this Fengtian Temple, but he also paid attention to this fragrance. But there hasn't been a day when the scent is as weird as it is today.

"Why, but do you notice something wrong?" Seeing that Jing Shengwu beside him had been frowning, Rong Chu asked in a low voice. From the time he was in the hall, he found that Jing Shengwu seemed to be distracted. Looking at it like this now, she really didn't concentrate on it.

"When I was in that temple, I seemed to sense that something was wrong. But I wasn't sure if what I was smelling was real, so I had to wait until I looked into it later. ”

Jing Shengwu frowned and replied, but at the moment, he turned his eyes to Wu Liang, who had been behind without saying a word, "Childe, have you also found something wrong with the emperor?" ”

Wu Liang nodded, although he didn't say much, but looking at the solemn expression on his cold face, he knew what he was thinking.

In the Fengtian Palace, Chu Heng was looking at the Golden Town Dragon Head in his hand with a solemn face. Now in the inner hall of the Fengtian Palace, there are only him and Li Ya. Even the cold spike was sent outside by Chu Heng to wait. You are not allowed to enter unless you are summoned.

"Li Ya, look at that kid, is he going to start doing what happened back then?"

After about a cup of tea. Chu Heng sighed and said softly. His restless appearance in the past seemed to have long been exhausted, and the wisdom in his eyes was also revealed at this time.

Hearing Chu Heng's words, Li Ya didn't say much. There was a strange desolation in his drooping eyes.

"If he really wants to do a thorough investigation of what happened back then. I'm afraid that even I can't stop it. Now the heavy troops in the hands of King Rong are not something that Yu'er and others can stop. However, if the only witness of that year was death. How else are they going to get to the bottom of this? ”

Seeing that Li Ya didn't speak, a trace of blood flashed in Chu Heng's cold eyes.

In the Millennium Palace, the queen mother was sitting on the phoenix couch with a depressed face. Rubbing his forehead tightly. Look at it this way. She described her as withered, with a yellow face and dilated pupils, and she looked like an old woman.

The dignified and beautiful queen in the early years has now quietly disappeared without a trace with the confrontation of Jing Shengwu, looking like an old woman. If it weren't for the phoenix crown bead robe on her head, who would have thought that the old woman would be the queen's mother?

The big palace maid beside her respectfully served her tea, but the queen didn't even have the heart to take a sip. Now although Leng Sui has been favored by Emperor Chu Heng, he is just a cold nobleman.

In this harem. Which woman can get a bonus for 100 days again? Seeing that Leng Guiren is now favored, but the nobles in the harem are not vegetarians. Seeing that he was about to pull Emperor Chu Heng to them.

"Niangniang, don't worry too much, our emperor will not forget Niangniang. It's just that the emperor is busy these days, and he doesn't have any scruples about his mother. Seeing that the queen was worried, the big palace maid next to her persuaded her softly at the moment.

These palace maids don't mean well, but they are just planning for themselves. Now the queen's strength is not as good as day by day, and even if something happens to the Emin clan, the queen can't help her mother clan at all. If it weren't for the fact that the emperor still cared about her position in the middle palace, I am afraid that this millennium palace would have been treated as a cold palace.

But there are also benefits to being around the queen. Looking at the cold spike that day, it was just a little more regular, and it was presented to His Majesty the Emperor by the empress. No matter how you say it now, it's also a cold nobleman, isn't it? Although the rank is not high, it is much better than these servants who are subordinates.

Just when the palace people were thinking about their little abacus to each other, the queen didn't notice that there was gradually silence in the palace. She looked around in shock, but found that the palace people had already retreated, and under the phoenix couch, a black figure was sitting.

"Ahem, cough, I haven't seen her for a few days, but the queen's body looks a lot less." Just when the queen's gaze was terrifying, the figure raised its head. He had gray hair in the dark, and although he looked old, there was not a trace of wrinkles on his face.

Even the father-in-law standing behind him also raised his head at this time, shook off the dust, and arched his hand to the queen. Seeing Li Ya, the queen's pupils shrank a few points again.

"Your Majesty, when did you arrive, why don't you inform your concubines." The queen immediately got up and knelt down softly in front of the figure. This figure is not a bystander, it is the current Son of Heaven, the old emperor Chu Heng, and the father-in-law behind him is his husband-in-law, Li Ya.

"I've been here for a while, and I haven't bothered you when I see you pondering. It's just that I don't know what the queen is thinking now, and she can't even hear such a big movement? If you are really old, looking at your face reminds me of my own age. ”

Chu Heng got up indifferently and stroked the queen's cheek with his palm. Although this action seemed gentle and delicate, his cold words made Queen De suddenly shrink her eyes. On his cold countenance, the queen felt a palpitating breath.

This kind of aura will only be completely manifested when Chu Heng wants to kill someone. It's not that the queen hasn't seen his murderous aura in the past, but it wasn't directed at the queen after all. Now, such a terrifying aura makes the queen tremble uncontrollably.

Chu Heng looked at the queen's trembling appearance, and a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes. Where is such a queen still half as beautiful as she was back then, looking just an old woman. On her neck, there are some subtle wrinkles.

Although in the past, this wrinkle was covered up by the queen, and it looked fine. But looking at it so closely now, it made Chu Heng think of his age uncontrollably. The queen is so old, and she reminds him all the time that he is no longer as handsome and young as he used to be.

"Your Majesty, the concubine doesn't know what mistake she made, which made Your Majesty angry, is it the concubine's. Please also ask Your Majesty to spare the life of the concubine for the sake of serving you for decades. ”

Although I don't know why the emperor has such an expression, the queen has not had a chance to think about it now. She only knew that if she didn't open her mouth to beg for mercy again, she was afraid that she would not even have a chance to beg for mercy. Li Ya was standing quietly at the entrance of the hall, preventing any palace people from entering.

Now in this hall, there are only two left, the queen mother and the emperor Chu Heng.

"Shhhh Stretching out a finger, Chu Heng blocked the queen's mouth. His cold look made the queen close her eyes again. Looking at Chu Heng's solemn eyes in the past so closely, now they actually showed such a cold and evil look, which made her tremble uncontrollably.

"Well, that's how good you are, it's my good queen. Now, I also need you to do that last thing, so that I can be completely reassured. Touching the queen's hair with satisfaction, Chu Heng smiled evilly. The palm of his hand, I don't know when he touched his belt.

"Your Majesty, what is the matter? If the concubine can do it, she will definitely do it for His Majesty, and she will go to the soup and fire. The queen's eyes widened, and she looked at Chu Heng and said very attentively. Between the words and sentences, it seems to weigh a thousand catties.

She didn't know why Chu Heng had become like this, and it made people feel scared when they looked at him. But she only knew that if she couldn't please Chu Heng again, she was afraid that she would become the first queen in the harem. Even if one is not good, even his own life will be dissipated.

Looking at the queen's trembling look, Chu Heng nodded his chin with satisfaction, "The queen will definitely do it for me, because what I asked you to do is just to die." ”

Hearing Chu Heng's last words, the queen's eyes widened and she looked at Chu Heng in disbelief. In her expression, she did not return to the calm and dignified color of the past, but was completely frightened. The queen who looks like this makes people feel her old age even more.

"Back then, the matter of King Rong's mansion, as well as the former queen, although my queen made a lot of efforts, but now Prince Rong brings up the old matter again and asks me to investigate it thoroughly, and I can't save her face."

Chu Heng's hand was released from his belt, and there was already a small black pill in his palm. The pill looked very inconspicuous, lying quietly in Chu Heng's hand, as if there was no problem.

But it was such a small pill that made the queen's frightened look completely sluggish, and she couldn't say anything anymore when she looked at Chu Heng.

"Rong Chu, he won't watch me let you go."
