Jiang Qiancheng frowned, originally wondering what the emperor's intentions were, but now it seems that he is very clear that he wants to inherit the throne to remove all the people who will threaten his rule, including the queen mother and Jiang Qianbai.

At this time, the anger on the queen's face was already very obvious, and when she left the palace to go back to her parents' house, she definitely didn't expect that the emperor actually planned to let Jiang Qiancheng deal with them while she was away.

Jiang Qiancheng soothed: "The queen doesn't have to be too angry, I haven't officially started it in the name of investigation, and none of the people in this roster have moved." ”

"This palace is angry because the emperor deceived me! deceived me about my trust and affection for him! ”

"I can understand the mood of the queen mother, but now is not the time to be angry, the matter of your return to the imperial city is still a secret, if you rashly return to the palace to confront the emperor, your situation will become very dangerous."

"Damn!" The queen patted the table: "The emperor is a villain!" ”

Jiang Qiancheng smiled, there is probably only one person in this world who dares to scold the emperor directly, whether it is openly or secretly, she is the one who does not hesitate to scold.

However, in the matter of the roster, Jiang Qiancheng still supports the empress, the emperor is not a good person, and he now seriously suspects that the emperor's serious illness is fake, just to give him the illusion of doing things.

"Empress Mother," Jiang Qiancheng suddenly spoke: "With your understanding of the emperor, how likely do you think he is pretending to be sick?" ”

"You mean, the emperor's serious illness was pretended by him."

"Not bad."

The queen mother frowned slightly, and after gently touching her chin with her fingers, she said: "It's very likely, after all, he is a person who will do whatever it takes to achieve his own ends, what can't you do this kind of thing?" ”

"If it's true, then the entire Imperial Study and the Tai Hospital are cooperating with him in acting."

The queen couldn't help but sneer, she originally thought that the emperor had changed over the years, but now it seems that he is still the sinister and cunning man he was at the beginning, and he has never changed in any way!

She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, fortunately Jiang Qianbai and Yue Wan'er were not in the imperial city now, if they were, maybe the emperor would come up with some excuse to put them under house arrest, or get rid of them directly.

Jiang Qiancheng said: "Since the queen mother has secretly returned to the imperial city, I wonder if you can help me solve this matter together?" ”

"That's natural, this palace can't just watch the emperor want to get rid of us and be indifferent!"

Jiang Qiancheng nodded with satisfaction, although the queen mother has never liked herself very much, but fortunately, the queen mother's vision is still long-term, if you don't help yourself now, the people who will die at that time may be all of them!

"How do you want Hongu to help you?"

Jiang Qiancheng picked up the roster and looked at it: "Can the queen mother circle you and Jiang Qianbai's people, I can make a classification." ”

"Classification?"

"Half of this is yours, and the other half, isn't the queen mother curious about who those people are?"

The queen narrowed her eyes: "You don't really want to kill them, do you?" ”

"Of course not."

The queen mother took a deep breath, then thought for a while, picked up the cinnabar pen on the table and circled the people who belonged to her and Jiang Qianbai in the roster, indeed, the number of people is nearly half, and the strength of those people is not weak, if it is really removed, the queen mother and Jiang Qianbai will be "greatly injured"!

Jiang Qiancheng looked at it, as if he suddenly noticed something, and said, "I suddenly understood something. ”

"What's the matter?"

"If the emperor's serious illness is fake, if he gets rid of all the people on this roster, what he has to do in the future is only to get rid of me, you, and Jiang Qianbai, and then he can firmly grasp the power of the entire Western Jin Dynasty in his own hands, and whatever gives up the throne is all fake, this is just a step in his chess game!"

The queen frowned, in a complicated mood.

Jiang Qiancheng said again: "We can't kill these people, at least, we can't really kill them." ”

"What do you mean......"

"Doesn't the emperor like acting? Then let's put on a show for him! ”

"What are you going to do?"

"Among the names circled in this list, which ones belong to the queen mother and you, and can temporarily disappear?"

The queen was stunned for a moment, but quickly understood what Jiang Qiancheng meant, the emperor wanted to make these people disappear, then they could make these people "disappear", but not in the real sense.

"This palace knows," the queen said, "this palace will definitely cooperate with you in this matter, but you have to promise that it must be foolproof!" ”

"I will do my best to reassure the queen mother."

Three days later, inside the Imperial Study.

Jiang Qiancheng handed the list of people he had eliminated in the past three days to the emperor, and after the emperor read it, he was very satisfied, and coughed twice during the period, but in Jiang Qiancheng's eyes, he only felt that he was pretentious.

The emperor smiled with satisfaction: "Prince, you did a good job, I didn't expect you to be able to get rid of these people so quickly, how did you do it?" ”

"It doesn't matter how I did it, what matters is that I did it."

"You're right," the emperor smiled, "anyway, what I need is not the process, but the result of things, and I am very satisfied with this result." ”

Jiang Qiancheng's expression was serious: "Since the matter has begun, and you are also very satisfied with your father, then the minister should also remind your father now, you have seen the results you want to see, if the results I want to see do not appear in front of my eyes, do you know in what direction things will develop?" ”

The emperor narrowed his eyes: "Prince, are you threatening me now?" ”

"Erchen is just reminding his father that he must do what he says."

The emperor laughed twice, looking at Jiang Qiancheng's eyes with a little more meaning, he didn't expect that what he was most worried about now was actually Yue Qingming, it seems that the temptation of the throne for him is not as big as a woman, it is really surprising!

But this is also good, as long as his affairs go well, whether Jiang Qiancheng wants to be the emperor or not, or even whether he still wants to be the prince, it doesn't matter, even if he dies, it doesn't matter!

He smiled and said, "Don't worry, as long as the prince can obediently solve my affairs, I will definitely not break my promise." ”

"That's the best," Jiang Qiancheng arched his hand: "Erchen has other things to do, so he will retire first." ”

"Go ahead."

When Jiang Qiancheng turned to leave, the smile on the emperor's face deepened a little, he thought, the matter is under control, soon, the power of the imperial city will return to his hands, back to his hands alone!
