Nie Zhixuan's footsteps suddenly paused, and he turned his head to look at Shi Yu.

The latter slowly curled his lips and looked at Nie Zhixuan, as well as at the courtiers present.

"Today's Taimiao sacrifice was brought up by me, I will not throw my life here, and naturally I will not let you Aiqing throw your life here."

Shi Yu's words were not loud, but they were like a spring breeze, which suddenly brought hope to people's hearts.

The courtiers, who were still chaotic just now, suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked up at Shi Yu and Jing Heng on the altar.

At this moment, they realized that from the explosion to the present, the reaction of the emperor and the overseer seemed to be too calm.

Nie Zhixuan also realized this, and furrowed his eyebrows uneasily, but soon there was another sneer.

"Now that the entire Taimiao is buried with gunpowder, under the control of this prince, Nie Shiyu, should you weigh it before you say big things!"

Shi Yu said lazily: "Then how can the second emperor brother be sure that everything today is not my plan." ”

Nie Zhixuan's face changed sharply, and he subconsciously looked at Empress Dowager Lin.

Empress Dowager Lin had already gotten off the altar just now and walked to Nie Zhixuan's side, and now when she heard this, she immediately denied it.

"Impossible, the mourning family has always acted according to the plan, and absolutely nothing has been revealed! And if you know the plan, how can the emperor let you uncover her daughter's body! ”

Nie Zhixuan thought back to the whole arrangement process and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"This prince has dispatched all his forces this time, and from the beginning of the layout of this Taimiao to the present, all the guards who can be mobilized are under the surveillance of this prince, so this prince can be sure that you have no other arrangements at all!"

Nie Shiyu must be deliberately deceiving himself, thinking that he is just trying to delay time and seek some variables!

Shi Yu chuckled, "Then the second prince might as well try, those explosives you arranged are still useful." ”

Nie Zhixuan's heart tightened, and he quickly looked at Li Changqing, who hurriedly released the signal, but after waiting for a long time, no explosion came again.

"How is this possible!" Nie Zhixuan's face changed sharply, and he immediately snatched the signal from Li Changqing's hand, and tried several times, but it was still quiet, and there was no more gunpowder explosion.

"Don't struggle, those people you arranged have already been arrested." Jing Heng looked at Nie Zhixuan condescendingly and spoke.

"No way, where did you get the manpower!" Nie Zhixuan looked at the two of them angrily, he obviously sent someone to monitor carefully, except for these guards, no one was secretly mobilized at all!

Shi Yu shrugged his shoulders slightly, "Is the second prince really sure?" ”

After speaking, she said in a loud voice: "Come out." ”

Soon, Yi Han walked out of the shadows, followed by a few people from Yi Shui Pavilion.

"The ambushers have already fainted, and the explosives have been dismantled, do you want to bring them with you?" Yi Han looked at Shi Yu and asked.

"No need." Shi Yu shook his head and looked at Yi Han and them, "Thank you." ”

Nie Zhixuan was desperate this time, so he would naturally send people to monitor the guards and the movement of troops in the imperial city.

So from the very beginning, she and Jing Heng didn't plan to secretly deploy people on the surface, and the people in Yi Shui Pavilion were all trained killers, and it was more than enough to deal with Nie Zhixuan's people.

Seeing that the explosives did not explode, and that someone he didn't expect appeared, Nie Zhixuan had to believe what Shi Yu had just said.

The previous triumph and mockery dissipated at this moment, turning into hatred and forcibly suppressed panic, "When did you know? ”

Shi Yu's eyes fell on Empress Dowager Lin, "From the moment the queen mother offered to help me catch Nie Zhixuan, I guessed it. ”

"How is that possible!" Mrs. Lin's color changed.

"How is it impossible?" Shi Yu smiled, his smile mixed with coldness, "The queen mother won't really think that I believe your words." ”

From Nie Zhixuan's point of view, after all, he and Empress Dowager Lin are mother and son, how can this bloodline relationship be so easy to change.

Therefore, if the chips in Nie Zhixuan's hand were just to help the Lin family get out of trouble, how could he believe that Empress Dowager Lin was sincere in cooperating with him, let alone taking the risk of sneaking into the palace.

The only explanation is that in addition to the Lin family, he also has other things in his hands, which can coerce the Empress Dowager Lin and make the Empress Dowager Lin choose to stand on his side.

She couldn't think of anything more powerful than her own daughter.

So at that time, she and Jing Heng guessed that it was very likely that Nie Zhixuan was already doubting her identity and sneaking into the palace just to ask Empress Dowager Lin for verification.

After confirming that he is a woman, this has become the most powerful condition for him to reach cooperation with Empress Dowager Lin, even if his identity is revealed, he can ensure that Empress Dowager Lin is safe and sound.

"Since you've guessed all of this, why don't you stop it?" Empress Dowager Lin's face turned pale and she looked at Shi Yu in confusion.

Shi Yu chuckled, sighed and said: "Naturally, it's because I'm tired, it's not what I want to do to dress as a man, and it wasn't my wish to ascend the throne and be the emperor at the beginning, I have indeed concealed my identity over the years, but in the end, what I did do is just save my life." ”

After a pause, Shi Yu's gaze moved to Empress Dowager Lin again.

"At the beginning, in order to consolidate her position, the queen mother lied to the outside world that her son was a woman. And now, the lies you see are exposed, and the queen mother does not hesitate to cooperate with Nie Zhixuan in order to save her life, and pushes her son to die, do you really have no guilt in your heart? ”

All the eyes converged, and Empress Dowager Lin trembled fiercely, avoiding Shi Yu's gaze for the first time, and her heart was like numbness.

However, what is even more serious than the guilt is the panic and worry in the heart.

The courtiers looked at the Empress Dowager Lin, and then at Shi Yu, at this moment, putting aside the deception, almost all of them were unhappy with Shi Yu in their hearts.

Among these people, Nie Zhaoyi's mood is the most complicated.

At the beginning, he looked down on Nie Shiyu extremely, and felt that the other party had become Jing Heng's marionette, and he was in his way, and even made several shots to get rid of Nie Shiyu.

But now he was told that Nie Shiyu was a woman at all......

No wonder over the years, Nie Shiyu seems to be incompetent, soft and weak, and unwilling to contact people, all to cover up his identity!

As the imperial sister, it's too difficult!

In the complicated emotions of everyone, Nie Zhixuan and all his subordinates were arrested, and Empress Dowager Lin was also temporarily escorted back to the palace by Shi Yu.

The ministers left, and the temple was handed over to the Ministry of Industry for renovation.

A big drama seems to have come to an end, but everyone knows very well in their hearts that the next thing is the main event.

No matter how helpless Shi Yu is, no matter how hard it has been over the years, but the matter of a woman disguising herself as a man to ascend the throne, no matter what, there must be an explanation!
