Xiao Ba was helpless about this and could not give a reasonable explanation at all.
However, Feng Junye, who was right beside her, had already heard her inner thoughts clearly.
His queen actually wanted to pounce on Master Jingtan?
At that moment, Feng Junye's heart began to feel uneasy. Could it be that the Queen liked the type of person like Master Jingtan?
That's why she doesn't like her own, right?
All the ghosts in the cold palace were purified at this moment and passed away.
Only the most remote corner of the cold palace still exudes a strong ghostly aura, gloomy and dark. The bark of the old locust tree, which has long been withered, is hideous, and there are rugged scratches on its thick trunk.
It was like it was scratched by something sharp, one after another.
Soft fingers fell on the dry bark.
"You've worked hard these years."
Feng Junye frowned. Who was the Queen talking to?
The originally dry old locust tree suddenly trembled twice, and some leaves fell sparsely.
Feng Junye stretched out his hand, and the leaf fell into his palm.
It was freezing cold, and a strange feeling spread throughout his limbs. It felt as if his heart was being grabbed tightly by a pair of invisible hands.
With heart-piercing pain.
"What's buried under this tree?"
He covered his chest with his hands, his face pale.
Even though it was his first time in this place, he felt a strong sense of calling, as if there was something extremely important buried underground.
"Your Majesty also sensed it?"
Shen Qianyue was very surprised.
The late queen's resentment had never dissipated, but it was suppressed under the dry well of the old locust tree and she couldn't get out at all.
I just didn't expect that Feng Junye could also sense this resentment.
He looked at Master Jingtan.
Jing Tan shook his head and said, "This is the Soul-Calming Well, used to suppress the most vicious and evil ghosts."
"If you want to open the Soul-Calming Well, you need another person."
So today, it can’t be opened?
"Master, could you please tell me who is suppressing this underground?"
He knew, of course he knew.
The one who suppressed it was the former queen.
But why did he feel so sad?
Regarding the late queen, everyone in the palace knew that she was an extremely vicious woman who would do anything to achieve her goals.
Even Feng Junye had been indoctrinated since childhood with the idea that the late queen was a very vicious woman, so the empress dowager never allowed him to come to this place.
Even if he accidentally ran here while playing as a child, he would be severely beaten by the Queen Mother and locked in a small dark room. He would not be given a single bite of food or a sip of water for three whole days.
That was the first time in his life that he was beaten by the Queen Mother. Before that, he always thought that his mother was the most perfect woman in the world.
Since then, Feng Junye has never come here again.
"Tomorrow is my last day of copying scriptures. Your Majesty, would you like to go with me to watch a good show tonight?"
Shen Qianyue looked at Feng Junye with a smile on her face. She always loved to smile, with curved eyebrows and shallow dimples, which made her look very pretty.
"Since it is the Queen who has invited me, I will naturally attend."
The Empress Dowager slept in the Cining Palace for two days and her condition improved a little today. Feng Qingyan was serving her in the Cining Palace.
"What did you say? The mother and child Gu are all dead?"
A look of shock flashed across the empress dowager's still charming face, and she eagerly grabbed Feng Qingyan's hand.
"How is this possible? I have planted that poison in his body since he was born..."
The Queen Mother's heart was beating wildly.
"I'm afraid that Shen Qianyue already knows the secret of that year." A trace of murderous intent flashed across Feng Qingyan's face, and he told the Queen Mother everything about the conversation between Shen Qianyue and him.
When the Queen Mother heard this, her body began to tremble.
There was deep resentment and hatred in her eyes.
"Impossible! I've been planning this for so many years. I even watched the late emperor execute my daughter with my own eyes. She was the daughter I gave birth to with so much effort. If it weren't for that bitch, how could she have died?"
Feng Qingyan touched the tip of his palm.
Shen Qianyue was right, he also had six fingers.
It's just that the Queen Mother cut it off when he was just born.
Everyone who knew about this matter back then is dead, but how did Shen Qianyue know about it now?
"And today, Master Jingtan went with His Majesty to the dry well in the cold palace. I'm afraid they already know about it."
Feng Qingyan's eyes were full of murderous intent and coldness.
Originally, he had organized a large number of rebel forces among the people. However, with the implementation of a series of favorable policies by Feng Junye, the newly formed rebel forces were immediately stillborn.
After all, no one wants to start a war. The reason why they are willing to become rebels and rebel with Feng Qingyan is only because of Feng Junye’s tyrannical rule.
In the past, he was cruel and ruthless, and he made the people breathless. In addition, due to natural disasters and famines, people starved to death or died of illness, and the people's resentment naturally grew.
However, Feng Junye is now building water conservancy projects, encouraging farmers to reclaim fertile land, reducing taxes, and distributing millet seeds for free.
He also built schools so that people all over the world could afford to read and go to school.
Not only that, he also recruited soldiers and began to strengthen the army and the country, and used both civil and military means to rule the world.
Under such a policy of combining kindness and severity, anyone who wants to rebel is mentally ill.
Moreover, now they have done many cruel and inhumane things among the people in the name of the tyrant. Feng Junye has already heard the news and started to punish officials from all over the country.
Promote fresh and young blood and replace his people one by one.
At this point, it would be ridiculous to say that Feng Junye still doesn't know about their evil ambitions.
A fierce glint flashed in the Queen Mother's eyes: "Since he already knows, I can't let him stay!"
Feng Qingyan put down the teacup: "What does the Queen Mother want to do?"
"Of course, we have to eradicate it completely."
Over the years, the Queen Mother has held a lot of real power, and almost half of the court are her people.
As long as she wants, she can force the emperor to abdicate anytime and anywhere.
"But there is still a Chen Taishan." Feng Qingyan said meaningfully.
The Queen Mother sneered: "He won't live long."
"Don't worry, just do your own thing and let your mother handle the rest. This throne should have been yours. He has occupied your position for so many years, and now it's time for you to give up the throne."
At night, the imperial palace was like a giant beast crawling in the imperial city.
Perhaps it was because the heavenly palace was not peaceful these days, the Queen Mother always had trouble sleeping at night.
I vaguely felt that someone was staring at me in the darkness.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew and blew open the door of the palace. A loud bang woke her up from her sleep.
The empress dowager suddenly opened her eyes, and a black shadow quickly flashed into the Cining Palace.
"Someone, come quickly, there's an assassin!"
The Empress Dowager screamed in fear, but the entire Cining Palace was eerily quiet, and the palace maids and eunuchs who were originally on duty disappeared completely.
