Looking at Zhou Xianrui, who was holding a jade seal and wearing a dragon dark purple robe, he was under the gaze of tens of thousands of soldiers.

Zhou Xianyu, Xiao Jinxuan, Xiao Ting and others were surrounded by the high platform where the dragon chair was placed in the hall.

Whenever Zhou Xianrui took a step closer to the high platform, Empress Xue looked at the new emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty not long after, and she seemed to have seen the defeat of the Xue clan and the scene of her being given death.

Immediately, I felt extremely unwilling, thinking of my life as a queen, but I lost the fetus in my womb tragically.

Empress Xue wanted to ruin the world of the Zhou family, and even more wanted to lean the government and the opposition herself, and she was helpless to be arranged by any fate.

Therefore, even today, when the Xiao family's army rushed back to 50,000 light cavalry, there was no possibility of usurping the throne and rebelling against Empress Xue, and he immediately planned quickly in his heart, how to protect himself.

And when Zhou Xianrui still had two steps left to walk on the high platform, and then completely blasted her out of the hall, and accused her of killing the king and killing her husband, Empress Xue took the first step.

I saw that she immediately walked in front of Zhou Xiantai, who was still sitting on the dragon chair, and was extremely clueless about the current situation, but forced herself to be calm.

Then Empress Xue didn't give this son a chance to react, she immediately raised her palm and slapped the other party hard, and scolded angrily:

"Well, you disobedient little brute, you dare to deceive even the queen mother. If it weren't for Tai'er, you told the queen mother, saying that your father had secretly summoned you, and then said that Xianrui had a heart of disobedience, and if the prince had a mistake, you, the second son, would inherit the throne, how would the queen help you refuse to open the city gate. The queen mother asked you before, since your father said so, why is the jade seal of the country not in your hands. But only now can I fully understand that you, an unfilial son, have been using me. This queen is your biological mother, Zhou Xiantai raised you with hard work in vain, you are simply a beast who kills your father and deceives your mother. ”

Empress Xue's sudden face-turning move not only stunned Zhou Xiantai, who was slapped in the face, but even the people who supported Zhou Xianrui's ascension to the throne couldn't help but stop their steps on the high platform.

And after seeing Empress Xue, after taking in everyone's reactions, her expression flashed a trace of ruthlessness.

After all, although Zhou Xiantai was raised by her in the final analysis, he had no blood relationship with her, so Empress Xue was in this dangerous situation now.

Even if he is ready to abandon this adopted son, he will put the charge of killing the monarch and usurping the throne on the other party.

And when Empress Xue herself played the role of a poor mother who was innocently deceived by her child, in order to win the sympathy of others, she even withdrew herself from the rebellion.

After reprimanding and accusing Zhou Xiantai, I saw that Empress Xue immediately glared at Bai Liu, who was also stunned when he stood aside, and then said with grief and indignation:

"Bai Liu is still the daughter of a famous family, if you know that you are the Bai family of the Huaguo Mansion, you will have a heart of not being subordinate. How could I agree to marry Xiantai, I am afraid that everything he did was instigated by you. And the reason why the queen blocked the emperor from the city gate a few days ago, and even more so decided that the other party was going to kill the king and usurp the throne, all of this was not caused by your constant admonition and instigation in front of the queen, and the people of your Bai family are really damned. ”

put all the blame on her adopted son Zhou Xiantai, and then Xue Hou naturally wanted to keep her mother's prime minister's mansion, so this would bring the Bai family of the Guogong Mansion to the front as a scapegoat.

And after Empress Xue splashed all the dirty water, she was supported by Zuo Wen on the side, and walked quickly towards Zhou Xianrui, and then shed a few tears, and then said hypocritically:

"Rui'er is the queen mother who made you suffer, it's all Xiantai's child who is confused, and he shouldn't expect something that doesn't belong to him. Even if the other party is my biological son, but now that the queen mother has figured things out, she will definitely not tolerate him. Killing the king and forcing the palace, intending to rebel is a serious crime of the country, you are beheading him, and the queen mother will definitely not complain about you. ”

After blaming all the charges on Zhou Xiantai, in order to prevent changes, only when this adopted son has completely become a dead man, can Empress Xue feel stable.

But Zhou Xianrui is calm and capable, and he is not a person who is easily swayed by the words of others.

And he is like a mirror in his heart, this time he is rebellious, and the Xue family is the culprit.

Therefore, even if Zhou Xiantai really deserves to die, Zhou Xianrui will never be at the mercy of Empress Xue and move the other party at this time.

Because what he wanted to do was to work with the two major families of Xue Bai to completely pull out the two major tumors of this Great Zhou.

"Queen Mother, how wrong the second brother is, that is also my Zhou Xianrui's siblings. Moreover, the crimes he committed can only be punished by the criminal department and adjudicated by the law of the land to be convincing, so this matter will not be bothered by the mother. Moreover, in this rebellion of the capital division, you, as the mother of a country, openly controlled the imperial city, and the Son of Heaven committed the same crime as the common people. Therefore, the child is not filial, but he will also call the criminal department to investigate your mistakes in the rebellion. Therefore, please also ask the queen mother to return to the harem immediately, this is the place where the previous dynasty deliberates, and I can't interfere in the harem of the Great Zhou. ”

Empress Xue relied on her mother's prime minister's mansion and had always controlled the harem, and in private, she had already reached out to the previous dynasty, and even if Emperor Ming knew all this before, he didn't dare to move her in the slightest.

But now it's good, in the eyes of Empress Xue, Zhou Xianrui is just a concubine born to Concubine Liang, who will openly force her to be driven back to Fengxiang Palace, and bluntly said that all her crimes will be strictly investigated according to law.

Immediately, Empress Xue knew in her heart that if she was really forced to return to Fengxiang Palace, then what was waiting for her would definitely be house arrest.

After completely losing contact with the outside world, she will really be slaughtered.

Therefore, after listening to Zhou Xianrui's words, Empress Xue immediately took out a dagger from his cuff and put it against his neck.

"Xianrui is in turmoil right now, and I, as your mother, should be by your side. But you want me to return to the harem immediately, obviously because of the rebellion, I don't believe in the innocence of the queen. In this case, since the emperor has died, and this future is his wife, so let's go with Your Majesty. If the province lives alone, it will be framed and slandered. In the final analysis, it's because you are not the biological child of the queen, otherwise how could you force the queen into such a situation. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Xue Hou's eyes immediately closed, and the knife in her hand instantly cut a bloody mark on her neck, but she naturally didn't really seek death, so the wound was extremely shallow.

But even so, everyone present was still shocked, after all, Empress Xue was nominally Zhou Xianrui's mother.

Now Zhou Xianrui has been established as the prince, and as a result, the queen mother was forced to die.

Even if Empress Xue is unforgivable, but at this juncture, if the other party really has an accident, Zhou Xianrui will inevitably be criticized, and future generations will criticize him, which is extremely unfavorable for an emperor.

Compared with the complicated feelings of others, Zhou Xiantai, who was splashed with dirty water by Empress Xue, saw that the queen mother was about to commit suicide on the spot, he immediately took a few steps forward and said anxiously:

"Queen Mother, you are the mother of the Great Zhou Kingdom, Zhou Xianrui, they dare not touch you, and just like you said, all the rebellion and rebellion are done by the child alone. It was I who lied to you, so that the queen mother fully supported me without knowing it, and it was me Zhou Xiantai who took advantage of your maternal love. Ask the child to carry all the mistakes for you, and if you want to kill or chop it, it will be up to the child and me to bear it. ”

When the catastrophe was approaching, Empress Xue, who was regarded as her biological mother, put all the blame on herself, this feeling was actually Zhou Xiantai's heartache was like a knife, and there was a feeling of being abandoned.

But in Zhou Xiantai's life, he fought with the crown prince, and fought with Zhou Xianrui and others, in fact, in the final analysis, he was all for Empress Xue.

He wanted to make this queen mother proud of him, he wanted to push the other party as the queen mother of the Great Zhou after ascending the throne, so that this mother could live up to her old age, he actually just wanted to prove to Empress Xue that he Zhou Xiantai did not live up to the other party's teachings and expectations.

For Zhou Xiantai, who has rarely seen Empress Xue's smile since he was a child, even if the queen mother just shows him a look of expectation and approval, it will make him happy.

Sometimes Zhou Xiantai is actually very envious of Zhou Xianyu, after all, although the other party is not the biological child of Concubine Liang, the relationship between him and his adoptive mother is extremely close.

But he didn't know the secret of that time, he was not Zhou Xiantai of Empress Xue's parents, and what he couldn't figure out the most in the past 20 years was why he, a child with a mother, could not get any maternal care.

And now, even if Empress Xue pushed him to the front, Zhou Xiantai knew that as a prince, he was leading the troops to attack the Beijing Division, and such a big crime awaited him only one death, and there was no chance of survival.

Therefore, even though he was scarred by Empress Xue's ruthlessness, Zhou Xiantai still decided to protect this queen mother, and he would bear the responsibility for any mistakes.

And when he heard that Zhou Xiantai had eliminated her so cooperatively, Xue Hou was overjoyed.

After all, her identity as the mother of a country is here, and if someone takes the blame in the past, then no one can think of touching her easily.

But looking at Zhou Xiantai and looking at her with a concerned and sad look. What Empress Xue thought in her heart was that if the other party did not die for a day, then there was a possibility of retracting the confession, and she would have trouble sleeping after all.

So I saw a trace of ruthlessness flashing in Empress Xue's eyes, and then she showed an extremely reluctant and loving look on her face, and walked over to Zhou Xiantai step by step.

"The queen mother of Tai'er knows that you are the most filial child, but now the queen mother really can't protect you. But everything you have done for me, the queen mother has seen in her eyes and remembered in her heart. Today, if I say goodbye to you and my mother and son, I am afraid that it will be difficult to have a chance to meet, and I will be reluctant to show you after showing my mother. ”

As soon as he finished saying this, he saw that Empress Xue was already in tears, and he even opened his arms and hugged Zhou Xiantai in his arms.

And Zhou Xiantai, who has lacked maternal care since he was a child, saw that Empress Xue was reluctant to give him up.

Immediately, he felt in his heart that it was indeed worth it to bear all the faults for this biological mother, no matter how cold the other party was on weekdays, he cared about his biological son after all.

But just when Zhou Xiantai was thinking so silently in his heart, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his back.

Subconsciously, Zhou Xiantai pushed Xue Hou away, and looked at the dagger in the other party's hand in disbelief that it had disappeared, and only the blood stained Xue Hou's right hand red.

While Zhou Xiantai spilled a mouthful of blood in his mouth, it was not clear where Empress Xue actually stabbed the dagger into his back when he was defenseless.

And when Zhou Xiantai opened his eyes wide and fell to the ground unsupportably, the last thing he saw was Empress Xue's cold and triumphant smile.
