There was silence in the study.

Gu Qingyue's eyebrows locked slightly, and a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes.

This Xue Jingche is the concubine that Mrs. Yang values the most, not only did he personally send him to the palace, but he didn't say a lot of good things about Xue Jingche in his ear.

And as far as Gu Qingyue knows, Mrs. Yang has a close relationship with the Xue family.

I didn't expect Xue Jingche to be so ruthless when he dealt with it.

"Taifu!"

Xue Jingche knelt on the ground and stepped forward on his knees, his eyes trembling, his eyes full of fear: "Taifu, my father is your savior." ”

He threw himself on the ground, grabbed the corner of Mrs. Yang's robe, and begged loudly: "You can't just kill me like this, Taifu!" ”

Mrs. Yang didn't even look at Xue Jingche, raised her leg and pulled out the foot that he was grabbing, and kicked Xue Jingche to the ground.

He squinted at Xue Jingche: "I just killed you for the sake of your father being my life-saving benefactor." Otherwise, the harem of fornication will punish the nine clans! ”

Xue Jingche didn't give up, knelt on the ground, knocked his head, and his forehead was soon full of blood.

"Taifu, Jing Che is wrong, beg Taifu to spare Jing Che's life."

Mrs. Yang turned a deaf ear and didn't seem to hear Xue Jingche's words at all.

Seeing this, Xue Jingche had no choice but to plead and look at Gu Qingyue: "Your Majesty, the concubine is wrong, the concubine will never dare anymore." I beg the emperor to spare the concubine this time because the concubine has served by your side for so long, and there is no merit and hard work. ”

He lay on the ground, hugging Gu Qingyue's right leg tightly, blood sliding down his cheeks, dripping on his neck, and finally falling to the ground.

Soon, there was a bright red under Gu Qingyue's feet.

She couldn't bear to look at it, leaned down, and reached out to help Xue Jingche up.

In fact, you can't blame him completely for such things.

Personally, Gu Qingyue was a little sympathetic to him and wanted to spare him this time.

As far as the public is concerned, Gu Qingyue hopes to release Xue Jingche, so that it can be regarded as a disguised attempt to win over the Xue family and use it for himself in the future.

Who knows, before Gu Qingyue could speak, Mrs. Yang had a calm face and said coldly: "Someone!" Take him down to me, and cut him down in three days. ”

Soon, several Praetorian Guards rushed in outside the imperial study, grabbed Xue Jingche, and dragged him out of the main hall.

Mrs. Yang turned her head to look at Hui'er, who was kneeling beside her, trembling.

He stepped forward a few steps, condescendingly, and stared at Hui'er: "As a female official beside the emperor, you are guilty of seducing concubines so ignorant of inspection?" ”

Hui'er's body weakened, and she suddenly fell to the ground: "Taifu, the slave is guilty." ”

"Since you are deeply affectionate, you would rather be charged with killing your head than be together. That official will fulfill your pair of hard-working mandarin ducks, come and ......"

"Taifu wants to kill under my nose?"

Gu Qingyue suddenly turned cold, and a pair of dark eyes stared gloomily at Mrs. Yang's back.

She rested her right hand in front of her, rubbing her thumb and forefinger lightly.

In front of herself, Mrs. Yang wanted to dispose of Xue Jingche and Hui'er one after another without asking for an order, and without replying, she couldn't help but take herself seriously!

Gu Qingyue's face sank like water, and she slowly stepped forward and stood still in front of Hui'er.

Before she could speak, Hui'er was already trembling and grabbed the corner of Gu Qingyue's robe: "Your Majesty, save Hui'er." ”

Gu Qingyue patted the back of Hui'er's hand, signaling that she didn't have to be afraid.

She retracted her gaze and looked at Mrs. Yang: "I'm still standing here, and Mrs. Yang will dispose of me." Is there still an emperor in the eyes of the Taifu? ”

Mrs. Yang looked displeased.

Today, he couldn't count how many times Gu Qingyue rebelled against him.

Could it be that she really wants to be this empress?

The corners of Mrs. Yang's mouth twitched, and her temples jumped wildly.

After a long time, he said coldly: "Weichen doesn't dare. Since the emperor thinks that Weichen is biased, please allow the emperor to ......"

Seeing that Mrs. Yang was going to repeat his old tricks again, he threatened himself with resignation.

The corners of Gu Qingyue's mouth drooped slightly, her hands were behind her back, and she turned sideways, leaving only a side face for Mrs. Yang, and said in a cold voice: "I am the emperor of Da Yao, if someone wants to threaten him with resignation several times, then I can only agree." ”

Mrs. Yang's eyes widened suddenly, and the anger around him was gradually replaced by the incredulity on his face.

Gu Qingyue looked sideways at Mrs. Yang: "What does the master want to say, but you have to think clearly." There are some words, once spoken, and there is no going back. ”

Mrs. Yang trembled slightly, his hands on his side were clenched into fists, the green tendons on the back of his hands were violent, his back was stiff, and he felt bursts of cold sweat flowing down the trend.

After not waiting for Mrs. Yang to reply for a long time, Gu Qingyue simply helped Hui'er up.

She glanced at Taifu's eyes, and then said to Hui'er: "You have also seen today's events, and you also understand what the consequences will be if you commit it again." ”

Hui'er trembled again and again, and couldn't stop nodding: "Slave maid...... The slave understood. ”

Gu Qingyue coughed softly: "I am willing to spare your life for the sake of your previous serving, and still leave you to serve in front of the palace." Would you like to? ”

Hui'er never thought that she would not only leave a life, but also continue to serve in front of the emperor, where is there anything unwilling: "The slave is willing, the slave is willing to serve the emperor as a cow and a horse." ”

"The emperor is so conniving at this female official, isn't he afraid of criticism from the government and the opposition?"

Gu Qingyue glanced at the Taifu indifferently: "I am the emperor, and I have the power of life and death, who dares to criticize it?" ”

"Your Majesty, you ......"

"Taifu can still decide the life and death of concubines, can't I decide the life and death of a female official?"

Mrs. Yang was speechless and looked at Gu Qingyue blankly.

The latter straightened his back, tilted his chin, and looked full of pride.

In a trance, Mrs. Yang seemed to see the appearance of the former emperor on her face.

After pondering for a moment, Gu Qingyue said slowly: "Taifu has nothing to do, so you can retreat." ”

Gu Qingyue could even hear Mrs. Yang's teeth trembling, and she almost squeezed out a few words from her mouth: "Yes, Weichen retired." ”

Before he left, he didn't forget to gouge out Lu Huaijin's eyes twice.

In Mrs. Yang's opinion, Gu Qingyue's temperament suddenly changed greatly today, and she was inseparable from Lu Huaijin.

When Mrs. Yang left, Gu Qingyue told Hui'er to go down and rest.

Finally waited until there was no one in the hall, and Gu Qingyue's originally upright waist collapsed instantly.

She slumped in her chair, letting her arms cling to the armrests and gasping for air.

It's a little scary to think about it now.

If Mrs. Yang refuses to give in to death, he really doesn't know what to do if he has to resign.

"The emperor did a decent thing today."

At first glance, when she heard a voice in her ears, Gu Qingyue instinctively sat upright, suddenly turned her head, and stared at herself playfully with Lu Huaijin's indifferent eyes.

"Why are you still here?" Gu Qingyue's face was full of surprise.

She only cared about 'seeing each other in life and death' with Mrs. Yang, but she forgot that there was another one here!

Gu Qingyue got up tired and waved her hand casually: "After the excitement is over, let's go back as well." ”
