Xia Zheng has time, he is not afraid of spending time with Zhou Dingqing, so he has to wait, is it still a moment and a half?

Soon, it was rumored outside, and He Song asked to see him.

The corners of Xia Zheng's mouth hooked an indifferent arc, and Zhou Dingqing's body trembled slightly.

As if everything was under control, He Song and Zhou Dingqing were worthy of being colleagues, and the two of them had an extremely tacit understanding, and they knelt directly on the ground after coming in.

He Song didn't look at Zhou Dingqing, and said without changing his face: "Your Majesty, the ministers are not effective in protecting you, and you still hope that the emperor will condemn you." ”

"Zhou Qing, do you dare to say it to He Qing again with all the words you just said? I said, the more complete you say, whoever can go home. ”

Zhou Dingqing looked up in astonishment: "Your Majesty...... Minister......"

Before he could finish speaking, He Song looked at Zhou Dingqing with a shocked expression, and then he slowly calmed down.

"Your Majesty, the minister came today to report Zhou Dingqing's intention to rebel." He Song said firmly, without a trace of doubt or wavering in his tone.

He didn't give Zhou Dingqing a chance to speak at all, and continued in one breath: "Before the hunting trip, Zhou Dingqing looked for his ministers several times, to the effect that he bought a secret army outside the country to assassinate the emperor...... At that time, the minister was ineffective, and in the end, he had no choice but to follow him on the thief ship. The minister had long wanted to tell the emperor about these things, but Zhou Dingqing had been threatening the ministers with his net worth and life...... The minister doesn't ask for anything else, but only hopes that the emperor can see the minister's share today, spare the minister, and deal with it lightly. ”

Zhou Dingqing never dreamed that at this time, He Song would be completely frightened by Xia Zheng, he was furious, straightened up, and pounced on He Song like a ghost.

"I'll kill you...... I should have known that there was a ...... today I should have known that there was a ...... today."

He Song didn't struggle, just let Zhou Dingqing keep choking his neck, and with great strength, his face turned red, but he didn't care about Zhou Dingqing, his eyes just kept locked on Xia Zheng's young face.

Zhou Dingqing, he doesn't care, as long as Xia Zheng doesn't believe it, it's fine.

"Don't blame me, it was you who betrayed me first......" He Song said in a tone that only he and Zhou Dingqing could hear, trying his best, and he was about to be suffocated to death by Zhou Dingqing.

"You know, I didn't say anything!" Zhou Dingqing almost squeezed out this sentence from between his teeth, full of hatred. blamed this old partner for his disappointment, and blamed himself for stumbling in this gutter for so long.

He Song's face changed suddenly, and he didn't seem to understand what Zhou Dingqing meant, but he couldn't believe it, he was actually messed up by himself.

Xia Zheng sneered and said to the two people who were entangled on the ground: "This is actually the case. Then, I wronged Zhou Qing. The whole family went into exile, how? Is Zhou Qing still satisfied with this ending? ”

"As for He Qing, his courage is commendable, and he will be demoted."

"I know that I have never been a good emperor, but I am an emperor who cherishes talents. Therefore, He Qing knows the current affairs so well, and I will definitely compensate He Qing well in the future. ”

After saying that, Xia Zheng strode out of here, as if he didn't want to stay here for a second longer.

Only Zhou Dingqing and He Song were left, and the two of them were stunned in place, neither kneeling nor standing. After several years of hard work, it was actually bad for the small resentment that the two people had accumulated over time.

They looked at each other, but they couldn't speak, and they were speechless for a long time.

"Lord He, thanks to you, I'm still more miserable." Zhou Dingqing finally sat down on the ground with a wry smile on his face.

When Jiang Mei woke up slowly, there was no one standing by her bedside.

It was late at night, the window was ajar, and I was eager to remove it from myself.

As she had first crossed over, she lowered her head to see that she was already bandaged. It is estimated that Xia Wusi helped her do it, Xia Zheng had an order, and Song Jing and Xia Wushuang also knew her true identity.

She thought that she had already landed in this step, could it be that Xia Zheng's holy decree to dismiss the official had been issued? Or is it ...... Further, already about to be executed? In history, isn't Jiang Mei bound to die?

It's just that this time has been brought forward now.

She smiled wryly and struggled to sit up, inadvertently slamming her head on the bedpost, making a sound.

Someone outside seemed to hear the noise and rushed in.

Jiang Mei was in the dark, and asked in a daze: "Is it Ah Xiu?" ”

The man said "um" and stood in the doorway, not coming in.

"How long did I sleep?"

Ah Xiu was still standing at the door, and said in a muffled voice, "It didn't take long. ”

Jiang Mei said "um", stopped, and said in a difficult voice: "The emperor's punishment for me should come down......, right?" Is it a demotion? Still is...... Do you want me to die? ”

In the end, Jiang Mei got out of bed, staggered to the head of the bed, poured herself a glass of water, and her throat was dry and almost smoking.

"Lord Jiang seems to be looking forward to the emperor's decision?" In the dark, Ah Xiu fiddled with his belt and said lightly.

Jiang Mei's hand paused, and changed the topic: "Ah Xiu, I remember the day you found out my identity, you were still asking me why I approached the emperor......"

"Hmm." Ah Xiu replied lightly.

"You still ask me, do you like the emperor, do you remember?"

Ah Xiu stopped talking this time, although Jiang Mei didn't know if Ah Xiu remembered, but he still sighed to himself: "Maybe I desperately changed the topic at that time because I didn't want to admit it." Although I don't want to admit it...... But still today, in a very shameful way. ”

"It's a shameful way to feel like it shatters all my dignity." Jiang Mei smiled bitterly, rubbed the tea cup in her hand, and walked to the rocking chair unhurriedly.

"I didn't think it would be nice to have someone I cared about, but now, how can a person who is moved by all his details be willing to leave." Jiang Mei took a sip of tea, and unconsciously, his throat was a little sour.

"I don't know what fate awaits me, but maybe it's my mission to be by his side all the time." Jiang Mei said to herself, and drank the teacup in her hand.

"By the way, don't let the emperor know that you have already found out that I am a woman...... In this case, it is not good for you. After Jiang Mei soothed her muscles and bones, she crawled back to the bed.

"Go to bed early, Axiu, good night. Wait with me for my verdict and wait for my end. Jiang Mei closed her eyes and prepared to fall asleep again.

Moreover, no matter what the outcome of tomorrow will be, she is also mentally prepared and no longer afraid.

After this incident, she has also grown a lot, at least she understands what it is like to protect a person, rather than relying on her own lonely and brainless mess.
