When Fang Zhiyi became the emperor, Xue Wanqiu went in and out of the palace as if she was at home. No one even dared to conflict with her because they knew that she had an ambiguous relationship with the emperor. The former commander of the imperial guards only tried to stop her once, but in the blink of an eye, he was exiled to the frontier to eat sand.
Fang Zhiyi was indeed willing to listen to her in everything. She approached Fang Zhiyi and asked him to recall her cousin Wei Lin to lead the imperial guards for him. Fang Zhiyi said nothing. He had met Wei Lin before and after, and he had helped her a lot before and after she ascended the throne. He looked loyal.
Xue Wanqiu then suggested that Xiao Ce join the Ministry of Revenue and Liu Yan take over the Salt and Iron Bureau. Fang Zhiyi agreed with a wave of his hand in order to make her happy.
Even if someone accused Liu Yan of corruption in the past, Fang Zhiyi would still frown and suppress his anger.
These people don't understand shit. The person Wanqiu recommends must be a capable official!
Indeed, these people relied on him as a backer and gradually gained power. It became easy for Fang Zhiyi to deal with matters from the higher-ups. Even if he didn't follow them, they could still handle it. This way, he would have more time to spend with Xue Wanqiu.
But Xue Wanqiu has been very busy recently, and Fang Zhiyi felt a little unhappy after being left out several times.
But he had not expected that the fall of the Northern Dynasty would come so suddenly. In just one night, the capital was filled with shouts of killing, the imperial guards rebelled, and except for a few of his personal guards, everyone was an enemy!
He was still lost in thought until he saw several of his important ministers escorting Xue Wanqiu out.
Fang Zhiyi was locked up. He wanted to ask Wanqiu what had happened, but no one answered him.
It was not until the day when a eunuch brought him a pot of poisoned wine that he learned that Xue Wanqiu had become the first female emperor since the founding of the country with the help of several men. Today was her ascension day, and also the day of the change of dynasty.
Fang Zhiyi was struck by lightning: "Wanqiu...did she, did she mention me?"
The eunuch felt sorry for him and started to talk a lot. Fang Zhiyi then realized that several of his brothers were dead. The eldest brother was torn into pieces by five horses, the second brother was beheaded, and the fourth brother suffered the most because he cursed Xue Wanqiu and had his tongue cut off and his eyes gouged out.
Xue Wanqiu's cruel act was just to deter the remnants of the previous dynasty, but she was still worried because she was afraid that the plot would backfire.
Soon after, all families related to the royal family were purged, even children under the age of 18 were not spared. It was said that it was the commander of the imperial guards, Wei Lin, who did it. Fang Zhiyi's mother and grandfather's family were all turned into headless ghosts, and he was the last remnant of the previous dynasty.
Fang Zhiyi closed his eyes and drank the cup of poisoned wine.
"I know everything, Your Majesty, please don't blame me." The old eunuch clasped his hands together and kept bowing. He believed this.
But when Fang Zhiyi fell, he was still murmuring Xue Wanqiu's name.
If I hadn't been born into a royal family, would the ending have been different?
"Bullshit!" Fang Zhiyi was already a little depressed because he became the emperor again, and he became even more depressed after watching the plot. "This thing is so damn bad!"
Xiao Hei crossed his arms and nodded: "That's right! This woman is so mean!"
Fang Zhiyi was stunned: "I said it was the original one!"
"Huh? Oh, oh, that's right."
The more Fang Zhiyi thought about it, the angrier he became. He couldn't help but curse out loud: "What a piece of shit, a lickspittle..."
As soon as he said this, he bumped into someone at the corner. Fang Zhiyi saw a petite girl. The girl touched her head and raised her head with a worried look on her face. When she saw Fang Zhiyi's face clearly, there was some confusion in her eyes.
"Your Majesty, I just heard someone say someone was a dog licker... Could it be that you..."
Fang Zhiyi looked at her in surprise, and then he saw the girl was followed by a group of people who looked stupid.
