He even subconsciously shouted to Ah Zhao: "Zhaoyang, I ......"

Ah Zhao raised his eyes to look at him: "What?" ”

There is an expectation in the eyes.

Hua Yong opened his mouth, but in the end he just sighed dejectedly: "It's nothing." ”

He watched as the light in the other's eyes fell.

"Qingque." She whispered his name.

Hua Yong responded.

"You know, I have never wanted you alone, and I only want you to be my holy king, I only want you to give birth to our children with me." She muttered.

Hua Yong didn't speak, just took a step forward and let her lean on his body.

The two of them snuggled up to each other intimately in such a posture, just like all the lovers in this world.

But on the contrary, both of them knew it very well in their hearts.

They are not.

……

On this day, I went to court.

The courtiers once again asked the empress to be canonized as a holy monarch and give birth to a royal family descendant as soon as possible.

Ah Zhao didn't speak, and pressed down again.

Originally, this is not an uncommon thing, since the empress succeeded to the throne, this kind of drama of "asking His Majesty to be canonized as a holy monarch" and "discussing it later" has long been staged.

This time, however, it was not the same as before.

——The court persuaded the empress to canonize the imperial history of the holy monarch, and the next morning, she was found by her family and died violently at home.

A knife cut the throat, extremely cruel.

The Manchu Dynasty was shocked.

The empress was furious and ordered a thorough investigation.

But that's just the beginning.

From this day on, one after another, courtiers were killed in their own mansions.

The perpetrators have the same means, and they all cut their throats with a knife.

For a while, the people in the court were panicked.

The Empress even sent the Imperial Guards to guard the homes of each of her ministers to keep them safe.

However, this is not a long-term solution.

Especially when I was so nervous, someone spread it: those courtiers who were killed, all of them were above the court, and they had admonished Her Majesty the Empress to accept people from the harem!

This rumor spread, and everyone corresponded one by one.

I was shocked to find out that this was indeed the case!

In fact, this speculation is not very logical.

After all, in the entire Suzaku court, most of the courtiers had seconded the matter of the empress's harem.

The few ministers who were killed were only a small part of them.

It's just that rumors are such a thing, and the more they spread, the more people believe it, and the more it sounds.

There are even some rumors that this is the empress taking the opportunity to eradicate dissidents.

Ah Zhao could even feel that when he was in court these days, some courtiers looked at him with panic in their eyes.

Her heart was a little cold.

……

Pujia Palace.

In the quiet inner hall, Hua Yong's voice was low, implying monstrous anger: "I asked you to create a little panic, and you just killed someone?" ”

The dumb voice that could not distinguish between men and women replied, "Your Highness, dead people are the most time-saving and labor-saving method. ”

Hua Yong shouted angrily: "Shut up, this king's words are only said once, you understand it now, in the future, you are not allowed to kill innocents indiscriminately!" ”

The voice was silent for a moment, and then whispered, "Yes." ”

The wind blows and the interior returns to true silence.

Hua Yong pressed his forehead, his expression full of exhaustion.

Ah Zhao hadn't been to Pujia Palace for a few days.

He knew she was in a bad mood.

When she is in a bad mood, she usually does not come to Pujia Palace, she said that she does not want to pass on her bad emotions to him.

Hua Yong looked at the bare ice crystal flower tree outside the window.

What he planned is being realized step by step.

But he stroked his chest, only to find that it was not as happy as he expected.
