Chapter 345: The farce ends

The regent Wei Chi Jin is notoriously selfless in this court, and he disdains to lie about such a somewhat face-losing matter. The ministers know his character, so where will they continue to seek verification? Looking at Zhuo Siyi's gaze, he immediately changed.

Even the Queen Mother was a little stunned when she saw this series of changes, and she didn't know how she should react. But after being stunned for a moment, she finally relaxed a little, and felt that she was just watching this matter.

Unlike Zhuo Siyi, her ambitions have been exhausted by all the things that have happened before. After Bai Su's death, she only wanted to maintain the order of the court and keep the country left by the emperor. Now that she sees that Yu Chi Jin and Zhuo Yu have come back together, where will she intervene to stop her?

Zhuo Siyi didn't expect him to say this at all, but in shock, she quickly reacted and hurriedly asked: "Yu Chi Jin!" I know you hate me for this, but ...... Obviously, after I married into the palace, you stayed in my courtyard every night, why do you want to conspire with others to slander my innocence at this moment? ”

She knew that the poisoning could not be cleared, so she simply admitted it directly, and it was okay to openly and secretly accuse Wei Chijin of slandering her because of this incident. Only then can she insist that she is indeed pregnant with his child, and that she can have that throne at her fingertips.

The two sides could not argue for a while, and the courtiers did not dare to speak easily, so they could only look at them while whispering to their colleagues beside them.

Zhuo Siyi was planning to grit her teeth and insist on the pregnancy, but Wei Chi Jin was not as good as she wanted, and after hearing this, she let out a sneer: "Stay in your room?" Isn't the eldest princess really blinded by power, and she can't even tell who is with you? ”

When Zhuo Siyi heard his words, she inexplicably felt uneasy in her heart, and before she could figure out where this feeling came from, Yu Chi Jin had already continued: "How this king hated you at that time, you must know for yourself. It just so happened that at that time that we met a guard who loved you to the core, and he would even prefer to pamper you in the place of this king......"

“…… That's enough! Say no more! ”

Zhuo Siyi interrupted him by screaming. Because after he reminded her like this, she instantly recalled that during the days in the Regent's Palace, "Wei Chi Jin" would only come over every night after blowing the light in her room, and rarely spoke throughout the night.

At first, she thought it was because she was busy, but then she became suspicious, and finally asked about the scar. It's just that at that time, "Yu Chi Jin" fooled her vaguely, and in the early morning of the second day, she received his letter of resignation again, so naturally she didn't have much time and mind to think about it again.

Zhuo Siyi never thought that his absurd conjecture at that moment would be true. I didn't expect that this kind of humiliating thing would be said directly by Wei Chijin in front of hundreds of civil and military officials.

The change in the expression on her face was too obvious, not to mention the courtiers below, even the Queen Mother who was separated by a layer of bead curtains could see it clearly.

"I didn't expect it......"

"How could it be like this......"

All kinds of discussions kept coming into Zhuo Siyi's ears, as if all the fig leafs on her body were lifted layer by layer, and she was put in front of the public for people to watch at will.

Zhuo Siyi knew that she no longer had the ability to compete for the throne, and she knew that she could no longer stay in this place. However, before she had time to turn around and leave, Qiao Yu'an, who had been silent, suddenly stopped her, and there seemed to be a little light in her eyes: "Princess, you just said that you are pregnant, is it true?" ”

He was already completely disappointed in Zhuo Siyi, but he didn't expect that when he was standing behind with the regent, he suddenly heard her say that she was pregnant. Pregnant...... Isn't that his child?

Qiao Yu was shocked by this incident, but he forgot that Zhuo Siyi had just lost a lot of face in front of so many people, and he was completely adding fuel to the fire when he mentioned this matter at this time.

The latter glared at him fiercely, as if he was looking at the enemy, and gritted his teeth and said, "No! Even if I am really pregnant, I will never hesitate to pour a bowl of abortion pills! ”

After she finished speaking, she didn't care about Qiao Yu'an's reaction, turned around and fled here in a very embarrassed way.

Since then, the court hall, which had been noisy for a whole morning, finally quieted down. Only then did the regent tell the ministers that he was reluctant to take over the government before, and it was precisely because he had found out Zhuo Yu's whereabouts, so he sent someone to find him. Zhuo Yu's return also became logical because of his explanation.

Originally, after Bai Su's death, the throne of Wu became ownerless, and there was no candidate for a new emperor. Now that Zhuo Yu is back, he is naturally supported and sits on the golden dragon chair again.

The Queen Mother was already tired, and when she saw that this farce of twists and turns finally came to an end, she also consciously removed the errand of hanging the curtain to listen to the government, returned to her palace and did not come out again, and stayed in the small Buddha hall all day long to recite scriptures and eat fast.

Now, Zhuo Yu, who has no worries, can finally start to clean up the pattern in the court. When the ministers had not yet recovered from the previous chaos, they found that many of their colleagues had been found to have taken bribes or to take human lives. In a short period of time, more than a dozen ministers were imprisoned in the palace prison one after another, and the one with the most incriminating evidence and the most shocking was Prime Minister Zao Wou-ki.

All of a sudden, everyone in the court was in danger, and even sometimes the court didn't even dare to come out, for fear of being noticed by Zhuo Yu, and then send someone to investigate thoroughly.

And Zhuo Yu took this opportunity to bring Situ Yu to everyone, claiming that he was the one who saved him and sent her back to the imperial city during the time he was out. So this time he came back, and directly let him take over Zao Wou-ki's original government affairs.

jumped to the position of prime minister just because of a life-saving grace, and such treatment naturally aroused the jealousy of many people. It's just that Zhuo Yu suddenly started to investigate corruption and bribery or knowing the law for some reason in the recent period, and they really couldn't make a stumbling block for Situ Ji, so they gave up for the time being.

At this time, Prime Minister Situ Ji was sitting in the imperial study with Zhuo Siyi and Wei Chi Jin, and told them with a smile about his recent situation: "Those people should have been really frightened by your resolute methods, since I took over the post of prime minister, it has been smooth sailing, and no one dares to be a bird to make things difficult for me." ”

Not to mention anything else, the remaining period of Zhuo Yu's move alone is enough for him to make some political achievements and gain a firm foothold in the intricate court.
