General Lin stood sideways at the door, with cold air surrounding him, like an executioner holding a knife at the execution ground. He looked at the once arrogant King Zunyi with interest.
"Your Highness, why do you have to rebel? The Emperor is a wise ruler, and you... are not worthy of that position."
Jun Chen smiled and tears came to his eyes, as if he was unwilling and afraid.
"A wise ruler? Hahahaha, a wise ruler!"
"He's not worthy of being called a wise ruler! He's nothing but an ungrateful wolf who stepped on me to climb up the ladder! How dare he..."
No one listened to the insults that followed. Who would care what a dying person said?
The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit, and he was defeated miserably.
-
The rain in the capital finally stopped. The once bustling and majestic Zunyi Palace was now heavily guarded, with teams of soldiers coming in and out.
All those enviable things collapsed overnight.
Several other houses were also confiscated. It was said that they were all followers of King Zunyi and had participated in the rebellion, and the evidence was irrefutable.
The most surprising thing is that the Mohist school was also involved. Everyone speculated that after this incident, the person in the palace would be deposed.
One day, two days, three days...
There was no news from the palace.
The day after Jun Chen was thrown into prison, Jun Ye went to court. When he saw the strong man on the dragon throne, the people who had been kept in the dark realized that all this was just a setup.
The rumors about vomiting blood and dying are all fake.
"Your Majesty, the Mo family is involved in rebellion. Mo Qin is the daughter of a criminal and cannot be the empress!"
The Mo family members were imprisoned like several other rebels, and were treated equally in all aspects. Although the final verdict has not yet been announced, the final result is the same.
And the one who was still safe and sound in the harem naturally became the target of their attack.
"Your Majesty, please depose the queen and choose another virtuous one!"
If others don't step down, how can your people have a chance to take over?
As soon as these words were spoken, someone immediately echoed them. Several people knelt down in unison and spoke earnestly.
"I implore the Emperor to depose the Empress!"
The others lowered their heads, glancing around with their peripheral vision, their feet rooted to the ground.
There are always some people who don’t understand that if the person above really wants to depose the queen, why would it be their turn to say anything?
If Jun Ye didn't want to destroy them, he wouldn't even look at them even if they were all killed in the hall.
Jun Ye sat on the dragon throne, his eyes drifting over their heads, his tone colder than the air after a recent rain.
"You all think so?"
The person kneeling below immediately responded.
"Your Majesty, Mo Zhong's conspiracy is irrefutable. If you leave the Mo family girl in the palace, there is no guarantee that she won't develop ulterior motives. It is best to make a decisive move!"
"Under the whole heaven, there belong to the emperor. There are so many beauties in the world. We can definitely find someone who is more pleasing to the emperor than the Mo family girl."
The person sitting at the top didn't say anything, but just lowered his brows and twisted the ring on his thumb.
This seemed like a signal, and the people below hurriedly added fuel to the fire.
"If Your Majesty insists on not deposing the Empress, I will die in this palace today!"
The person who was speaking had fine strands of silver hidden in his tied-up hair, dense wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and his body trembled as he spoke excitedly.
There was silence in the court for a while.
After the man finished speaking, seeing that Jun Ye didn't respond, he frowned, got up from the ground, and rushed towards the pillar in front of the side of the hall.
No one around stopped him.
With a loud thud, the man bumped into a gold-plated pillar in the hall and immediately fell unconscious to the ground.
A small, irregularly shaped blood stain was left on the golden pillar, and only a short, thin line of blood flowed.
shocking.
Everyone in the hall suddenly became agitated. After all, they had been colleagues for so many years, so how could they not have some feelings in their hearts?
They all had the same idea:
It is not worth it to fall out with court officials for a woman and to sacrifice one's life for a woman.
But the people above still didn't say anything, and they didn't even plan to call the imperial physician.
Some people began to hesitate, wondering whether they should also agree to depose the queen and put pressure on her.
Before the first person knelt down, Jun Ye spoke.
"Anyone else wants to die trying to make a statement?" The voice was filled with impatience and urging, as if it was really coming to take my life. "Hurry up, so we can take care of them all at once and save trouble."
save trouble!
Jun Ye raised his eyes to look at the group of people whispering below, his gaze fell on the blood-stained pillar, and he frowned slightly.
In his eyes, the blood was like mosquito blood that was accidentally stained on the wall. Seeing it only made him feel a slight disgust.
Those who had just given advice suddenly dared not speak. They felt pain in their legs as they knelt on the ground. It felt like they were kneeling on the edge of a knife rather than in a hall.
Some people started discussing other things, and this matter was just lightly covered up. No one dared to mention the matter of deposing the queen again.
A guard came in and dragged the man out, and found that he was not dead, but still alive.
He was probably timid and reserved when he hit the pillar.
-
After the court session, Jun Ye was about to return to the palace, but was stopped by the Yun family father and son.
The nearly 70-year-old old man of the Yun family knelt in front of Jun Ye with his son.
Although Jun Ye did not bring up what Yun Rongsheng had done openly, they still noticed Yun Rongsheng's abnormal behavior in the past few days. After knowing this, the old man of the Yun family fainted on the spot.
It is absurd enough for the eldest grandson not to enter the officialdom, how could he do such a disloyal and unjust thing?
Isn't this going to kill the entire Yun family?
Several official residences have been searched these days, but the Yun family has never been confiscated.
Tears welled up in the bright eyes of Mr. Yun, who had been the emperor's teacher:
