Lu Zhi gritted her teeth and said.
Lao Ai's whole body was stiff, and he was obviously at a loss.
Daji raised the spirit tablet she was holding in both hands high and said sternly, "The spirit tablet of the Emperor who embodies the Way of Heaven, has the highest merit and is perfect in virtue. He is divine, wise, martial, wise, and filial. Lü Zhi, why don't you kneel down?"
Hearing this, Lü Zhi's pupils shrank, and she looked incredulous. She pointed at Daji with a trembling finger and said angrily:
"You...you...you actually...you actually took the late emperor's spirit tablet out of the Imperial Ancestral Temple! Are you crazy?!"
Daji said solemnly, "Queen Dowager, you're crazy. How many years has it been since the late Emperor passed away? And you're already living with this bastard in front of you. Are you afraid that if the late Emperor knew about this, he would die with regret?"
"You...you are talking nonsense!"
Lu Zhi panicked.
Daji continued, "Lü Zhi, do you dare to tell me in front of the late emperor what you were doing with this man?"
"I...I...what I do is none of your business."
Lü Zhi yelled, "Come! Come! Queen Daji is rebelling! Capture her! Quick! Quick!"
However, no matter how loud she shouted, no one came.
Daji shook her head and looked at Hu Ximei.
The latter immediately understood what she meant, put the candle aside, and took out a black wooden box with dragon pattern from his arms.
Then, under the gaze of everyone, she slowly opened the wooden box and took out the Qin Dynasty's national treasure - the imperial seal.
Daji said indifferently: "Lü Zhi, today, I can give you a chance.
You should explain clearly in front of the late emperor and the ancestors of the Qin Dynasty what you are doing.
She glanced at the messy bed and sneered in her heart.
The moment when Lu Zhi saw her take out the imperial seal.
She already knew that she had lost.
Daji, who possessed the imperial seal, could fabricate charges against herself at will.
Of course, what she saw as fabrication was actually the truth in the eyes of everyone else.
"I am the Queen Mother! You can't treat me like this!"
Lu Zhi roared.
Daji said in a deep voice: "But...how did you treat His Majesty?
Since Your Majesty ascended the throne, you have repeatedly made things difficult for Your Majesty in every possible way, wishing that Your Majesty would die immediately.
At the beginning of the national crisis, you thought your opportunity had arrived, so you ordered your trusted confidants to poison His Majesty.
Fortunately, Your Majesty has extraordinary magical powers, is immune to all poisons, and is protected by the true dragon's spirit, so you can escape this disaster.
After that, you secretly allied with Ying Chengjiao, intending to plot something evil... and even repeatedly made unreasonable demands to Your Majesty.
Even if Your Majesty cannot remember each and every one of them, I still remember them.
Lü Zhi, do you know what the biggest mistake you made was?
The poisoning death of Ying Yuan's predecessor was indeed caused by Lu Zhi.
This matter was discovered by Wei Zhongxian through secret investigation at the request of Daji.
At present, Ying Yuan is still unaware of this matter.
Lu Zhi was frightened by Daji's cold eyes.
For a moment, I didn't know what to say.
Lao Ai took the opportunity to say, "Daji, don't go too far! You want to kill the Queen Mother? Aren't you afraid of the consequences..."
The words haven't been finished yet.
Nie Yinniang slapped him on the face, knocking him unconscious.
"How can you interrupt the Queen when she's speaking? If you dare to say anything again, I'll get more than a slap in the face."
Lao Ai knew very well that he was no match for Nie Yinniang.
Daji didn't even look at him and continued bluntly, "No matter how you treat me, I can tolerate it.
However, you shouldn't have murderous intentions towards His Majesty. There are some things that His Majesty is not able to do, so... I will have to do them for you."
"You...what do you mean? Do you really dare to kill me?"
Lu Zhi widened her eyes.
"Why not?"
Daji sneered, "People in the future will say that the fake eunuch Lao Ai seduced the Queen Mother Lu Zhi, and that the two of them went too far and both died.
Just then, there was a flash of lightning, and Shoukang Palace was engulfed in fire. The bodies of the two men disappeared.
Of course, history books would record that it was because you disliked Lao Ai's extramarital affair that you became furious and accidentally knocked over a candle, setting the entire Shoukang Palace on fire. Both of you died in the fire.
I will make good use of this imperial seal and write an imperial decree to announce it to the world."
Lü Zhi was horrified and flew into a rage: "How dare you! You! You will surely be punished by heaven!"
Daji slowly turned around and sighed, "I'm really unwilling to let you die so easily."
Then.
Nie Yinniang took action.
Kill Lao Ai directly.
But Empress Dowager Lu Zhi only cut the tendons of her feet and hands, making her unable to move.
Hu Ximei, holding the imperial seal, knocked over the candles she had placed.
The candle flame quickly burned the entire bed.
Both Lü Zhi and Lao Ai died in the sea of fire.
The people outside the hall only heard bursts of tragic roars.
Until Daji slowly walked out of the palace, and Nie Yinniang and Hu Ximei closed the palace door.
Everyone chose to forget or ignore the tragic screams.
"Daji! Daji! I curse you! You will not die a good death! You will not die a good death!"
"Daji! I curse you!!"
"ah!!!"
As the fire grew bigger and bigger.
The rain was surprisingly much lighter.
Daji glanced in the direction of the Imperial Observatory.
Gradually, a smile broke out.
There.
Zhang Jue was sitting in the middle of the formation.
Forcibly change the time.
It stopped the violent storm that was about to pour down.
