"You do something for me." The emperor sat in the study, his face gloomy and thinking for a long time, and then instructed the eunuchs around him, "Immediately send someone to encourage the nobles of the whole capital, whether they are married or not, to follow the concubines in the palace to the temple to pray for blessings."

"In order to show more sincerity, only female dependents are allowed! The servants can only take the maids." When the emperor said this, he frowned and thought for a moment.

If this is the case, he may not be able to get everyone to go, and in the end he will not be able to achieve his goal.

The emperor frowned, gritted his teeth, and simply told the people around him, "The noble girl of the capital who did not go for no reason was imprisoned for the crime of resisting the decree and killing her head!"

When the words fell, he swept his gloomy face to the people around him, "This matter must be handled properly, if there is another mistake, I will cut off all your heads."

When the eunuch heard this, cold sweat slid down his forehead.

"Yes!" After the eunuch responded, he immediately left to publicize the matter.

The emperor was sitting on the throne and thinking carefully, his goal was very clear, that is, he wanted to involve Shen Ling.

Although in doing so, Jing Ci and Song Linyuan may still protect Shen Ling, but the matter has already happened to this point, and he doesn't have to hide it."

"Someone ...... coming"

The emperor shouted outside again, and he called the two civil officials into the study.

"You supervise according to this list, and be sure that all the people on the list follow the concubines to the temple to pray for blessings."

Two officials took the list and looked at the names on it.

"Yes."

The emperor watched the two leave, a smile of conspiracy on the corner of his mouth, and he muttered to himself.

"Now see how you two can protect her."

He knew that this current move was tantamount to a conspiracy, even if the other party knew that he might encounter danger, but he didn't dare to disobey his will.

In the final analysis, he is still the emperor, a person above 10,000 people, no matter what Jing Ci and Song Linyuan want to do, they must take care of his identity.

The emperor was thinking about what he should do after Shen Ling went to the temple, this time he would never allow other people to interfere with him again, and he would never allow other people to prevent him from achieving his goal.

When Jing Ci received the change in the situation in the capital, he realized the crisis as soon as possible, and after returning to the National Teacher's Mansion, Jing Ci invited Shen Ling over.

"Do you know that the emperor ordered everyone to go to the temple to pray for blessings?"

"I just found out, what's wrong?" Shen Ling was thinking about this matter, but he didn't expect Jing Xi to mention it when he came back.

"That's not right, the Holy One will never give up so well, I will find a way to get you out first."

Jing Ci didn't want to hide this matter, because he was worried that Shen Ling didn't know the truth and would have an impact on the future plan, otherwise he wouldn't tell Shen Ling about this kind of thing.

"If you go to the temple this time, you will be in danger! You can't go anyway!"

Shen Ling didn't say anything when she heard this, but frowned, Shen Ling didn't object, she didn't go to the temple, but how to achieve this goal on the basis of not offending the emperor and not disobeying life, she hadn't found the answer yet.

"We're in Kyoto, so I'm afraid it's not okay to blatantly disobey the holy decree, so it's better for me to be careful, and with my ability, he can't do anything to me."

"No!" Jing Xi vetoed Shen Ling's idea in one bite.

Just as Jing Xi was thinking of a way, the emperor outside sent someone to send a holy decree.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said! Order the county lord Shen Ling and Concubine Mingyue to go to the temple together, and the two of them will go together, there must be no mistake."

Jing Ci and Shen Ling had no choice but to take the holy decree first, because Concubine Mingyue was already waiting outside.

This Mingyue concubine is the emperor's favorite concubine, and she is very favored on weekdays.

Now send her to the door, obviously to prevent Shen Ling from being lonely, and the two can go together.

In fact, it was to monitor Shen Ling's every move, which also cut off Shen Ling's idea of wanting to shirk or find another excuse.

Shen Ling watched Jing Xi anxiously walking back and forth in the room like ants in a hot pot, and couldn't bear it.

She persuaded, "Now that this Mingyue concubine is here, if I don't go again, it may cause other troubles, so I'll just be careful then, there is no need to openly disobey the holy decree of the Holy One now."

Jing Xi shook his head, he had an idea now.

The more the emperor did it so obviously, and the more he supervised Shen Ling so much, it proved that the emperor's conspiracy was very big.

He must not let Shen Ling put himself in danger, and he must not let this matter go according to the rhythm designed by the emperor, he must first disrupt the emperor's deployment, and then think of other ways.

Now there is not much time left for him, the irritability in Jing Ci's heart rises, and he deliberately calms himself down, and at this moment, there is a voice outside the door.

"On the emperor's command, please invite the national teacher into the palace, and there are important matters to discuss!"

Jing Ci was stunned, he instinctively wanted to refuse, Shen Ling had already seen Jing Ci's thoughts.

Shen Ling shook his head, "You can't refuse at this time, it's better to go and see what's going on with the Holy Lord first!"

Jing Ci sighed, he knew what the refusal meant, so he could only nod helplessly, "I'll rush back as soon as possible."

Saying that, Jing Ci hurriedly walked outside, and not long after Jing Ci arrived at the study of the palace, the emperor looked at Jing Ci with a smile.

"National Teacher, you also know that I let all the women go to the temple to pray for blessings, and we should do something about it!"

Jing Xi asked quietly, "I don't know what the Holy Lord wants Weichen to do?"

"I want you to hold a sacrifice to the heavens, and I have asked other officials to come and cooperate with you." Jing Ci's fingers couldn't help but clench a little when he heard this, he knew that after taking this task, he would not be able to leave the palace.

Jing Xi made several excuses, but they were rejected by the emperor one by one, and finally the emperor looked angry.

"I take you very seriously, and I attach great importance to this matter, so I will leave it to you to be responsible, and you will stay in the palace until this matter is over."

Thinking of the previous failed assassinations, the emperor was determined to accomplish this.

He said impatiently, "Okay, I'm tired, this matter is settled!"

The emperor waved his hand to let Jing Ci leave, and Jing Ci had to take over the holy order.

Looking at Jing Xi's back, the emperor smiled proudly, and then ordered the eunuchs around him.

"You personally keep an eye on the national teacher, and you don't allow the national teacher to leave the palace, and you don't allow the national teacher to have private contact with Shen Ling, but if you can't even handle this matter, I will ask for your dog's head."

The old eunuch hurriedly agreed, the last time the matter was messed up, he escaped by luck, and he still has lingering palpitations.

This time, no matter what, there can be no more mistakes.
