As soon as he heard it, Ji Lingfeng wanted to wrongfully blame Xiao Jinxuan's death for Zhou Xianrui's death.

Immediately, this vicious ploy was a scheming tactic, but Xiang Ping laughed coquettishly, and couldn't help nodding and saying:

"Ling Feng, you are so smart, such a good method, you can think of it. In this way, Xiao Jinxuan has become a sinner in Da Zhou, I see what else she has the ability to come back and fight with me! ”

As soon as he heard this, Ji Lingfeng couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth and smiled softly.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, now that Xiao Jinxuan has not been caught, we still can't afford to guard against it. Don't forget that the king has not yet returned, and the crime of killing the king must be decided quickly, and if it is too late, beware of a change. ”

was reminded by Ji Lingfeng, Xiangping also knew that inside and outside the palace tonight, because of Zhou Xianrui's death, the pattern would inevitably be turbulent again, and she had to quickly push things clean.

Because not only Ji Lingfeng was afraid of Zhou Xianyu, but Xiangping was also afraid of the seventh brother coming back.

If the other party knew that she did all this, it would be hard to say whether her life could be saved.

Therefore, I saw Xiangping look at Zhou Xianrui, who was already motionless, and told Ji Lingfeng to deal with the aftermath and make the illusion that Xiao Jinxuan had come.

And Xiangping himself, braved the goose feathers and heavy snow, and went straight to Yanqing Palace, ready to use the power in the hands of Empress Chen again for his own use.

In fact, Zhou Xianrui who will be this will not look motionless, in fact, he is still alive with a faint breath.

His eyes were slowly oozing blood and tears because of the poison, but his heart was still clear and clear.

The conversation between Xiangping and Ji Lingfeng can be heard clearly.

Although Zhou Xianrui couldn't speak and couldn't move, deep down in his heart, he would be blaming himself like blood.

Because it wasn't until he died that he didn't know that he was suspicious, which not only caused instability to the country, but also affected Xiao Jinxuan, and he was about to bear more trumped-up charges.

Tormented in this kind of guilt before death, Zhou Xianrui's eyes seemed to have a scene of Xiao Jinxuan dancing in a red plum with snow, her hands raised lightly.

In fact, this scene was inadvertently seen by Zhou Xianrui and Xiao Jinxuan for the first time on Chinese New Year's Eve in Yangzhou Xiao Mansion, and then went to give gifts to each other.

In fact, Zhou Xianrui has been thinking all his life about when he fell in love with Xiao Jinxuan.

And now at this dying moment, he realized that the other party had danced in his heart that day.

Holding up his last breath, Zhou Xianrui raised his hand, wanting to touch Xiao Jinxuan formed in the illusion in front of him.

But no matter how he stretched his hand forward, Xiao Jinxuan in the Man Dance was always separated from him by a few red plums, which could be seen but unreachable.

Zhou Xianrui, who had regret in his eyes, finally stretched out his hand and hung down weakly.

And he, the emperor who has been on the throne for less than a year, has passed away after all, and the grandeur of the Great Zhou Sheji in his heart has come to naught, and it cannot be realized.

Zhou Xianrui's life can be said to be for the sake of the imperial court, and he did his best, until a few hours before his death, he was even reviewing the twists and turns, and he never slackened at all.

But now that people are dying like lights going out, he, the shortest succession time in the Great Zhou Dynasty, can be regarded as the most diligent emperor.

I can finally sleep under the loess and take a good rest.

Not to mention that as soon as Zhou Xianrui died, how Ji Lingfeng began to forge it, the other party's poisonous hair was all an illusion made by Xiao Jinxuan.

Speaking of Xiangping's side, he would have already knelt in front of Empress Chen with tears in his eyes, and even talked about Zhou Xianrui's death and Xiao Jinxuan's escape.

Although Empress Chen was in power for the first time, she was immersed in it, and she didn't even have time to go to the Heart Cultivation Hall to take care of Zhou Xianrui's condition in person.

But after all, the other party was a piece of meat that fell from her body when she was pregnant in October after Chen.

I heard that Zhou Xianrui died like this, and she, the queen mother, didn't even see the other party for the last time.

Empress Chen, who was overly sad, even fainted, and when she woke up again, she was overwhelmed by endless anger.

"Xiang'er, your imperial brother's death is really Xiao Jinxuan's doing, she has not been abolished, and she will be given death in three days. Where did she get the ability to hurt Xianrui, and the people in front of the emperor are dead, why did my poor emperor go like this. ”

Hearing Chenhou's inquiry, Xiang Ping, who had already thought about the rhetoric, said very naturally immediately:

"Queen Mother, you really underestimate Xiao Jinxuan, have you forgotten that the other party had her own guards in the past, and she used this power to escape this time. As for the royal brother, when I went in to visit him, he had already been poisoned. My brother held up his last strength and told me that it was Su Qi, a first-class master next to Jinxuan, who did it. ”

As soon as he heard that the person who killed Zhou Xianrui turned out to be Su Qi, the doubts in Empress Chen's heart suddenly disappeared.

After all, when the Xue family launched a rebellion, Su Qi visited the palace at night, and even the other party's layout diagram and the secrets of the discussion could be stolen.

Avoiding the forbidden army and sneaking into the Heart Cultivation Palace, quietly poisoning and killing Zhou Xianrui, Empress Chen thought about it like this, and indeed felt that things were extremely reasonable.

Chen Hou said that she has never been very scheming, and she is also quite fond of the children around her.

Especially Xiangping, she trusts her even more, and feels that this daughter is the most intimate with her.

In addition, Empress Dowager Chen is now extremely disgusted with Xiao Jinxuan, and under this preconceived feeling of dislike, it is naturally easier for her to feel that the other party is the root of all evils.

Therefore, believing it to be true, Empress Chen, who had monopoly power but had no opinions, immediately moved to the Heart Cultivation Palace, and asked Xiangping, who was accompanying him:

"Xiang'er, now that your royal brother is gone, how should the queen mother deal with it next. After all, your father has many heirs, and if you let these vassal kings know the news, they will definitely have ambitions for the throne at that time. And the child in Su Concubine's womb has not been born, this throne is about to fall into the hands of others, and the situation of our mother and daughter is worrying. ”

Seeing the anxiety in Empress Chen's eyes, Xiangping hesitated for a moment, but still said truthfully:

"Queen Mother, you can't look forward to Concubine Su's baby. Because the people from Shicai Palace came to give gifts, Su Qin may have known that Xiao Jinxuan would be given death in three days, so she went to Zhaoyang Palace in person tonight. may have bumped into Concubine Su, who was running away from Xiao Jinxuan, so she was killed. Now her body is still lying in Jinxuan's bedroom, and now her daughter is in charge of the assistant harem and is arranging someone to deal with it. ”

As soon as he heard this, Empress Chen's eyes were dark, and Zhou Xianrui's only possible heir was gone.

She was indeed hit by the news, and almost didn't fall to the ground from the sedan chair.

Seeing that Empress Chen gritted her teeth and threatened to kill Xiao Jinxuan, she would have to arrest the other party.

After Xiangping succeeded in his treacherous plan, he not only immediately instigated Empress Chen, but also used the power in his hands to search for Xiao Jinxuan's whereabouts from door to door.

Immediately after Zhou Xianrui's death, among the two holy decrees, one of which was passed on to Zhou Xianyu's edict, Xiangping, which was quietly destroyed.

She was afraid that Zhou Xianyu, who held the military power, would ascend the throne and become the emperor, and then she would settle today's account with her.

Therefore, seeing that Xiangping comforted Chen Hou for a while, he immediately admonished and said again:

"Queen Mother, Jinxuan has a close relationship with Seventh Brother, and he holds the power of the army, and he has a high voice in the military camp. If he returns to Beijing, he will inevitably become the most favorable person to compete for the throne. But once the seventh brother takes power, his heart will be on Xiao Jinxuan, and he will definitely not help the imperial brother to avenge him at that time, and he will have to anger us. After all, Xiao Jinxuan's loss of power, we can't get out of it. After all, he is not your own son, and he will not be as respectful as the royal brother at that time. ”

Listening to Xiangping's words, he thought that his position as the queen mother might still be there, but the rights in his hands would be taken away.

Empress Dowager Chen felt a lot of sadness about Zhou Xianrui's death just now, because Xiangping's words were diluted a lot, but she was extremely nervous and hurriedly said:

"Xianyu's character is resolute and resolute, and he is not my own, if he knows Xiao Jinxuan's Beirong identity and is spread by the mourning family, this child will definitely not give up with me. In this way, it seems that I really have to support the accession of an obedient former emperor to the throne, and although the emperor has been by my side for many years, I will not support him. ”

Hearing Empress Chen's words, Xiangping was very happy in her heart, in fact, who was appointed as the emperor, as long as this person was not Zhou Xianyu, she didn't care.

But after thinking about it, Xiangping also felt that what Empress Chen said was quite reasonable.

If this enthroned person can be at the mercy of her hands, it will be a matter of all kinds of harm and no benefit to her.

After all, don't look at Zhou Xianrui is dead, Xiao Jinxuan is also charged with killing the king, and it will be difficult to have a foothold in the Great Zhou.

But she still felt that Xiangping's revenge was not finished, and Zhou Xianyu, who agreed to Mo Linfeng to go with the army, was also one of the targets she wanted to kill.

But Zhou Xianyu not only has military power, but also has strong martial arts, and wants to kill the other party, for the current Xiangping, she has not yet done this.

And if the future new emperor can be at her mercy, then the matter is another matter, and a very suitable candidate immediately appeared in Xiangping's mind.

"Queen Mother, you are so confused, instead of supporting other princes, why did you forget Chen'er. Xianchen is now also divided into kings, and he is the younger brother of the emperor's brother, and it is logical for him to ascend the throne for his brother and inherit the unification. And Chen'er is young, and her personality is also benevolent and cowardly, so when the government affairs naturally need the queen mother to listen to the government and take care of it on her behalf, you say that your daughter's proposal is not very safe. ”

The reason why Empress Chen and Xiangping did not associate the candidate for the inheritance of the unification with Zhou Xianchen at the beginning.

The most fundamental reason is also because in their hearts, the teenage Zhou Xianchen is a child, and no one has involved each other with the imperial power.

But the most ruthless emperor family, in order to satisfy his own selfish desires, but also in order to be able to control the government for a long time.

Even if Empress Dowager Chen and Xiangping knew early on that Zhou Xianchen just wanted to be an idle prince, it was extremely cruel to involve this unambitious close relative and turn him into a puppet emperor.

But in the face of power, none of these things matter.

After all, even Zhou Xianrui's death could only make Empress Chen sad for a while, so after listening to Xiangping's words, she couldn't help but light up, and nodded in agreement without thinking about it.
