Miss Jun looked around.

Yes, she knew this.

This is not the Empress Dowager's palace, but the Emperor's favorite place to drink tea.

This was also where she died before.

In the winter of the third year of Taikang, she came here wearing a gorgeous dress just like now.

Sitting opposite the emperor, holding the long sword hidden at his waist.

Miss Jun put her hands on her waist.

Just like now.

The Queen Mother let out a sobbing sound, breaking her trance of not knowing what day it was.

There was no Queen Mother here at that time.

"Stop arguing." The emperor kicked the empress dowager in annoyance.

The empress dowager, who was originally sitting upright, suddenly fell to the ground.

Only then did Miss Jun notice that the Queen Mother's hands were tied behind her back, and she also saw the anger on her face.

I don't know what method she used, but she seemed unable to speak.

It can only be expressed by making a louder howl.

"I've been fed up with you for a long time." The emperor said again, "You just can't stop talking."

The Queen Mother's face was pale and distorted with anger, making her look very funny.

Miss Jun actually laughed.

Is there anything funnier in the world than a fight between mother and son?

Especially this incestuous mother and son.

The laughter echoed in the hall, making the atmosphere a little weird.

The emperor looked at her coldly.

"You can still laugh, you are really arrogant." He said, "But did you expect that I would be waiting for you here?"

Miss Jun shook her head.

"No, I thought you were still hiding behind and letting others be the villain." She said, her eyes fell on the Queen Mother.

The emperor's eyes narrowed slightly.

He noticed that when she spoke to him, she no longer used "minister" and "Your Majesty", but "you and me".

"Who are you?" he asked, with a bit of scrutiny, "Are you the remnant of the late crown prince?"

So that's why she used the name of the woman she hacked to death to maliciously scare him?

Miss Jun looked at him.

"Your Majesty, are you going to discuss with me openly in front of others who will be the crown prince?" She asked instead of answering.

The emperor laughed.

"You are not worthy." He said with a hint of sarcasm, "I have the final say on who will be the crown prince. It is not your turn to make decisions. If you want to force me, you are dreaming."

"So you're planning to kill me?" Miss Jun said, "Do you think that if you kill me, no one will force you anymore? Death doesn't mean the end of everything. There has to be an explanation."

The emperor once again raised his foot and kicked the empress dowager who was lying on the side.

"The Queen Mother reprimanded you, but you were arrogant and rebellious, and you attempted to harm and threaten the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother was killed, and you were killed by the eunuchs." He said with a relaxed and casual look and a happy look in his eyes. "This is the explanation."

The Queen Mother's expression became even more distorted, and she struggled and made even louder howls. The Emperor stepped on her and half-knelt down.

"Mother," he sighed, "You always say that everything you do is to make me the emperor."

He said this while pointing his finger.

"Tell my father not to redeem my grandfather and uncle, and tell him to hide all the money in my fiefdom."

"You asked me to pretend to be honest, not to go to the capital, and to hide in Shandong like a ghost."

"and…"

He paused here, as if thinking seriously, yet also with a hint of joking.

"That seems to be all? Is there anything else, mother? I remember you talked about this a lot every day." He said, "Why can't I remember it when I think about it seriously?"

The Queen Mother glared at him angrily, trying to struggle to get up, howling as if cursing.

The emperor looked at her.

"You actually didn't do anything," he said coldly. "What you did was useless."

"The Royal Grandfather did not come back so that the Crown Prince could become the Emperor."

"Hide the money in my fiefdom. It is dead money. I make it alive."

"Do you think that just because you say a few good words for me in the palace, the throne will become mine?

"Do you think that if I pretend to be honest and hide in Shandong, people in the court will praise me everywhere? I bought it with my own money."

He reached out and pushed the Queen Mother to the ground, then stood up and pointed around.

"This throne and this world are what I have worked hard to obtain. You are the waste."

Having said this, he looked down at the Queen Mother again.

"But now, mother, you can finally do something truly useful."

He raised his hand and pointed at a teacup beside him, looking relaxed and happy.

"Drink this tea later, and then go on your journey quietly. It will be a worthy death. I will remember your great deed."

Although she had guessed many things and recognized the true nature of this imperial uncle, Miss Jun still felt a chill run down her spine after seeing this scene with her own eyes and hearing these words with her own ears.

"What a beast." She said, looking at the emperor, "How did the crown prince, the crown princess, and the late emperor die?"

Just like before, I asked this question.

The emperor looked at her.

"You are indeed related to those dead ghosts." He said coldly, but just like before, he did not answer this question, "But I don't care about these. No matter who you are, you will eventually become a dead person."

He sat down and waved his hands.

"Kill her."

As he said this, there was a loud bang, but it was not the eunuchs around who were attacking Miss Jun, but a group of Qingshan soldiers who rushed in from outside the door.

The Qingshan Army rushed in and immediately surrounded Miss Jun, pointing their long swords at the eunuchs around her and the emperor in the middle.

Li Guorui stood in the middle, and he seemed to have lost his soul.

He didn't know what was going on, especially when he saw the person he was holding the knife at, he shuddered and woke up.

That's the emperor!

emperor!

He actually pointed a knife at the emperor!

Is he going to cook?

No, no, of course he would not rebel, he was dragged in.

He knew that he was just a puppet in the Qingshan Army.

Li Guorui almost cried, but perhaps it was a habit he had already formed. Standing in the line of the Qingshan Army, he would not retreat until the line was dispersed, so he still stood steadily holding the knife.

The palace fell into stagnation, even the Queen Mother's sobbing voice disappeared.

"How daring! You are no longer just seeking merit and being rebellious." The emperor said from the top seat, breaking the stagnation with a bit of anger and fear, "You are rebelling!"

Miss Jun looked calm.

"This is not rebellion," she said. "This is just restoring order. A king without moral integrity cannot rule the country, and a usurper cannot be the emperor."

The emperor sneered.

"How did I commit immorality and treason?" he said, "What evidence do you have?"

Miss Jun glanced at a Qingshan soldier beside her.

The Qingshan soldier nodded and whistled outside.

Four or five Qingshan soldiers came in, escorting a palace maid, who was Xue'er.

Although she looked timid, she also looked determined.

"This maid was once the prince's medicine girl. She can prove that the prince has recovered and did not die of illness." Miss Jun said, looking at the emperor, "Since he did not die of illness, then he must have been murdered."

The emperor looked at her, then at the palace maid, his expression changed, and he stood up suddenly.

"You're talking nonsense!" he shouted. "That's not true!"

Miss Jun took a step forward.

"I've said that death doesn't mean the end of everything. There has to be an explanation," she said.

As soon as she finished speaking, the angry emperor in front of her suddenly sat down.

"How boring." His voice returned to calm. "So this is where the omission lies. No wonder that woman went crazy when she came here."

What?

Miss Jun’s expression froze.

not good!

But it was still too late, the emperor at the top waved his hands casually.

"Now that everyone is here," he said, "let's take them all down."

As he spoke, there was another burst of noise all around, and more people poured in. This time they were still eunuchs, but they were holding not only swords, but bows and crossbows.

The eunuchs who had been surrounding them retreated, allowing Senhan's crossbow to be aimed at this group of Qingshan soldiers.

Yuan Bao stood among them, looking somewhat proud.

Through the dense layers of eunuchs, Miss Jun saw the emperor sitting at the top.

"Miss Jun, this is my palace." He said lightly.
