Chapter 359 Silly Childi

, the queen did not explain, and directly said: "You can kill me or behead me as you please, don't talk so high-soundingly!"

The emperor did not get angry, but dismissed everyone.

Xiao Heng wanted to leave, but was kept by the emperor.

The emperor looked at the queen: "Do you think that even if you die, your father and brother can kill me to avenge you? You almost succeeded.

Unfortunately, you are too stupid. Since you want to rebel and get the tiger talisman, you should let the prince take advantage of my unpreparedness and attack the capital directly. But you let him stay outside the capital?"

"Are you so sure that I stole the tiger talisman?" The queen looked resentful.

Xiao Heng is too insidious!

"Who else but you can move Zhuiying? There is no point in saying more. Since you want to show your father and brother so much, just wait and see. I forgot to tell you that the tiger talisman alone is useless. The ones leading the troops are all my trusted confidants. Your father and brother are now in the dungeon of the Ministry of Justice. Someone, send the empress to the cold palace?"

The emperor's eyes were covered with a layer of frost!

"What, impossible, they have already left the city and joined the army, you can't catch them!" The queen looked incredulous.

"What can a bunch of good-for-nothings accomplish!" The emperor sneered.

"Impossible, you lied to me!" The queen's faith collapsed in an instant, and she rushed to the emperor, pulling his robe and questioning him!

The emperor pushed her away, his eyes grim and stern: "If you had never thought of murdering me, I would have spared some blood from your mother's family because of our years of love as husband and wife. But now, you are seeking your own death, so don't blame me for being cruel!"

After saying that, the queen was dragged away by the guards, and the emperor's roars were heard all the way!

When Xiao Heng saw the queen being taken away, he stepped forward, knelt in front of the emperor and said, "Father, I know that the queen is plotting against you. I am worried about your safety, so I rushed here rashly. Please forgive me!"

The emperor stepped forward quickly, helped him up and said, "Heng'er, I am so sorry for you. Father was only focused on how to deal with the military storage outside the city. I didn't expect them to be so ambitious. You saved my life. What crime have you committed?"

Xiao Heng burst into tears: "Thank you, father!"

He knew that although the emperor said so, he did not completely trust him. Fortunately, the queen did have the idea of ​​using the herb to harm the emperor, and her maid did go out of the city to secretly buy the herb.

However, the maid and Jiang Ping were not lovers, they were just from the same hometown.

The family of Grand Duke Li was killed by the Queen's brother, and she had been lurking beside the Queen to avenge her family.

But what could a little maid like her do? So when Jiang Ping proposed to cooperate, she agreed without hesitation.

She knew that she would definitely die, but she dared not even dream of having the Queen's family buried with her.

The Emperor would soon investigate, and if the matter was different from what Xiao Heng said, Xiao Heng would be in danger.

Xiao Heng said tactfully: "Since your Majesty is fine, I will take my leave now!"

The emperor patted his shoulder heavily and said: "No, you have to stay. Look at my 100,000 strong soldiers. Soon, they will flatten Dashuo. Dongling will be the strongest country in the four borders. Sooner or later, all four borders will belong to Dongling!"

Xiao Heng's face was full of surprise, as if he had heard something extraordinary: "Father, you want to attack Dashuo, haven't we always had friendly exchanges with Dashuo? When I was in Dashuo, I benefited a lot from their care. The little emperor of Dongling was also very generous. He taught me a lot of advanced technologies and gave me thousands of craftsmen. It's probably not appropriate to start a war at this time!"

The emperor glanced at Xiao Heng, thinking that he had never entered the high echelons of power and had a simple mind, so it was understandable that he had such thoughts.

He said patiently: "Xiao Heng, you are too naive. There is no real friendship between the two countries. It's just the law of the jungle.

We could ignore Dashuo before, but in recent years, Dashuo has been rising, and its national strength is even greater than our Dongling. The emperor of Dashuo suddenly died. This is a good opportunity given to us by God. If we don't take action now, when he has established his foothold, Dongling will not be Dashuo's opponent!"

Xiao Heng seemed to understand, his eyes were clear and stupid: "But father, when the plague was raging before, Dashuo unconditionally provided us with pills, and our two countries also signed a non-aggression treaty. How can this be ... Isn't it because we have no reason to do so?"

The emperor said with disdain: "At this point, we can't care so much. As long as we win, we have the final say on how history books are written. You must remember that history belongs to the victors!"

After that, he shouted to the eunuch: "Bring my armor, I will go out of the city to personally inspect the troops!"

Xiao Heng showed unprecedented nervousness. He said timidly: "Father, I will not go to this occasion. The drawings of the temporary palace are not finished yet. I want to go back and modify them!"

No matter how you look at it, Xiao Heng is a man without ambition, even a little timid. When he heard that he was going to inspect the troops, his legs were shaking.

All of this naturally fell into the eyes of the emperor. A timid person would never play such a big game.

Moreover, even if he stole the tiger talisman, how could he control Zhui Ying? However, since the queen had the intention of rebellion, why did she stop outside the city? This is why he suspected Xiao Heng. But

looking at Xiao Heng's current appearance, he definitely doesn't look like a man with such ambitions.

He was scared to death when he heard that he was going to recruit soldiers. He looked like this, he would only prolong his life. As long as he could survive, he would definitely be grateful and would always think about revenge for his mother and sister. He rushed into the palace to save him regardless of everything. This is also the father-son relationship he has never had in his life.

Maybe it's because he is old, he is eager to ask about true feelings.

But the emperor still had a plan. He held Xiao Heng's hand and said, "Heng'er, your father is sorry for you. You were blinded by the vicious queen, and you suffered a lot in your childhood. Your mother and sister also died. Whenever I think of this, your father's heart aches. It's my fault!" As the

emperor spoke, he burst into tears.

Xiao Heng supported the emperor and said sensibly: "It was hard to be in the cold palace at that time. Thanks to your father's frequent visits, we didn't starve to death. As for the death of my mother and sister, it was planned by the Poison Queen. Today, your father has sent her to the cold palace, so that she can taste the suffering of my mother and sister. This is also a comfort to their spirits in heaven. Thank you, father. If it weren't for your father's keen observation, your son would never be able to avenge them. Now that the great revenge has been taken, my mother and the others must be very happy!"

Xiao Heng said this truthfully with tears in his eyes. The emperor sighed and said, this silly child, you must protect him more in the future!
