The Queen has been secretly trying to find out what's going on in the palace. She heard from her subordinates that Shen Kuo has been arrested and the situation is not optimistic.
No, if her father falls, then she will really be finished.
She was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, but what was going on? Wasn't the emperor under her control?
Why is the medicine no longer effective? She was fine this morning, and she couldn't understand why.
No, she had to go and see for herself.
After thinking this over, the empress got on her sedan chair and went to the Golden Throne Hall.
At this time, a guard hurried in from outside and handed the thing in his hand to Emperor Hui.
After Emperor Hui took it, he took a quick look at it and his expression instantly turned extremely ugly.
He threw the thing in his hand at Shen Kuo fiercely, gritted his teeth and said: "Shen Kuo, it turns out that you have been planning for a long time, what else do you have to say?"
Shen Kuo's forehead was bleeding from being hit by him, and the blood slowly dripped onto the ground, but he didn't care.
He picked up those things and took a look at them, a flash of panic crossed his face. These things were evidence of his collusion with Mu Yang.
However, he soon calmed down. "Your Majesty, I was confused for a moment and was forced to rebel. These were all Mu Yang's ideas. "
Anyway, Mu Yang is not here, so he just needs to push all the evidence onto Mu Yang and get away with it.
Seeing that he was not about to cry until he saw the coffin, Emperor Hui laughed in anger: "Being forced to rebel? I don't know when General Shen became so cowardly."
He waved his hand, and then Mu Qingyun brought someone in from outside.
Shen Kuo saw the person coming from the corner of his eye and was shocked. It turned out to be Mu Yang.
How could he be so stupid to be caught by this kid Mu Qingyun?
As soon as Mu Yang saw Shen Kuo, he shouted, “Shen Kuo, you villain, actually teamed up with your Nanzhao people to capture me.”
He thought that Shen Kuo's rebellion was fake and that he was deliberately luring him here, and he fell into his evil trap.
He stared at Shen Kuo fiercely, wishing he could poke a hole in him.
At this moment, Shen Kuo was in great pain but couldn't express it in words.
He didn't dare to look Mu Yang in the eye. If he admitted it, it would mean that he was not forced to rebel, but was in collusion with Mu Yang.
Seeing that he dared to avoid him, Mu Yang was so angry that he kept struggling and wanted to beat Shen Kuo, but he was held tightly and could not move.
He lowered his eyes and glanced at the ground, and found something familiar on the ground. Wasn't that the letter that he and Shen Kuo communicated privately?
Since Shen Kuo refused to admit it, he had no choice but to give the other party away.
Suddenly, an idea came to him.
He looked up at Emperor Hui, with a sneer on his face, "Emperor Hui, the pile of things on the ground are the letters between Shen Kuo and I."
"Your Nanzhao Kingdom has long been betrayed by the treacherous villain Shen Kuo. Hahahaha, thanks to him, our army was able to reach Kyoto quickly."
When everyone heard Mu Yang's words, they cast angry looks at Chen Kuo.
As a general holding great power, Shen Kuo actually betrayed the Nanzhao Kingdom, which was something no one could tolerate.
Liu Taifu, who was suppressed by Shen Kuo before, jumped out and accused Shen Kuo, "Shen Kuo, you are really unworthy of being a Nanzhao citizen."
As a Taifu, he spoke in a more elegant manner and his curse words were not that harsh.
Shen Kuo glanced at him with contempt, "So what if I did all this."
Emperor Hui ordered: "Come here, throw Shen Kuo into the prison and execute him at noon tomorrow."
"As for those involved, they will be thrown into jail first and punished according to the severity of their crimes."
Before Emperor Hui could finish his words, the Queen broke through numerous obstacles and ran into the Golden Palace.
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I failed to stop the Queen." The Queen failed to stop her, and the guards hurried over to apologize.
Emperor Hui seemed to have expected this and did not blame the guard, so he let him go.
The queen looked around, her eyes bypassing Mu Yang, and when she saw Shen Kuo kneeling on the ground, she felt something was wrong.
Why is Mu Yang here? Has he confessed everything?
Also, it seems that the emperor is really fine. Could it be that he was just pretending before?
Thinking of this, the queen's heart sank.
She picked up the handkerchief, wiped away the nonexistent tears, and cried, "Please, Your Majesty, have mercy and spare my father."
When Emperor Hui heard this, his brows furrowed.
I haven't come to cause trouble for you yet, but you asked me to let Chen Kuo go.
Shen Kuo was guilty of treason, and logically, his entire clan should be punished.
Since you are here, don't blame me for being rude.
He glared at the queen and said in a bad tone, "Queen, do you know what crime Shen Kuo committed?"
The queen shook her head, a puzzled expression on her face.
What a joke! If I admit that I knew about it at this time, wouldn't that mean I'm an accomplice?
Emperor Hui looked at her with a half-smile, which made her feel a little uneasy. "It's treason."
"The letter says that you know Mu Yang? Mu Yang came to Nanzhao because of you?"
The series of rhetorical questions confused the queen. With tears in her eyes, she sobbed, "How could I know him?"
When Mu Yang heard her denial, he burst into laughter. He took out a purse with the queen's name embroidered on it.
"Look, isn't this the purse you gave me?"
The queen wanted to deny it outright, but she was so frightened by Emperor Hui's look that she dared not move.
The ministers below did not dare to speak, but looked at Emperor Hui with something strange in their eyes, as if they were saying that he was being cheated on.
Emperor Hui's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. He shouted loudly: "Silence."
Those ministers were trembling with fear and had to lower their heads and not look at Emperor Hui, for fear that he would involve them in his anger.
Emperor Hui's expression looked better.
He touched the queen's face, "Very good, Queen, how dare you do those things behind my back."
The queen couldn't help but shudder. It was all over.
Emperor Hui looked at the queen and told her a cruel truth.
"Queen, you don't think I am really under your control, do you?"
"Those medicines are useless to me. I am just cooperating with you in your acting."
The queen took several steps back. No, how could this happen?
It turns out that he was not controlled by the drug at all, it was all because of what happened today.
When Shen Kuo heard this, he understood everything.
He said that his plan was foolproof and there was no way it could go wrong.
It turns out that this is where the problem lies. It was all his good daughter's fault.
He struggled to break free from the guards and walked quickly towards the queen. Before she could react, he raised his hand and slapped her hard on the face. "You bitch, you ruined my happiness."
The slap was so loud that the queen saw stars and her face swelled up instantly.
She covered her face and stared at him with red eyes: "Daddy, you are so cruel."
Emperor Hui watched this scene coldly and understood the reason. He said sarcastically: "General Shen, the queen is at least the queen of a country and your daughter."
If you hit her like this, you are also hitting yourself in the face.
However, even if Shen Kuo beat him, it would probably be difficult to get rid of the hatred in his heart.
He put all the blame on the queen, never considering that he himself was more responsible.
