The furious Emperor would not listen to any explanation. He laughed in anger, "Great! So scheming! Not only are you plotting to murder me, but you're also trying to eliminate your opponents and target my son! What a noble concubine! What a Fifth Prince!"
"Your Majesty, please listen to my explanation."
"Come here! Throw them all into the Heavenly Prison and wait for your punishment!"
"Your Majesty, have mercy, Your Majesty!"

Seeing the Imperial Concubine, Qi Yi and Qiu Niang being taken away, Su Man's heart sank to the bottom.
Qi Xing is indeed powerful, and ordinary means can't do anything to him.
Now that the imperial concubine and the fifth prince have fallen, the throne will be his. What a good move! The mantis stalks the cicada while the oriole is behind.
After all these twists and turns, the emperor's body could no longer hold on. He comforted Qi Xing with a few words and then sent them away.
Although we fought a great comeback, the atmosphere on the way back was extremely depressing.
The queen was like a child who had done something wrong. She kept her head down and remained silent. Although Qi Xing showed no expression, anyone could see the cold and stern feeling of impending storm in his eyes.

"Oh, just you?"
Qi Xing stood up, casting a long shadow on the ground. "I said I could spare your life, but you acted on your own initiative, deliberately revealing your flaws and ordering the maid to go to the Yangxin Palace, hoping to use the Imperial Noble Consort to get rid of me. Is there any reason for me to keep you?"
The queen's face was ashen, and she slammed her forehead against the ground again and again. "It's my fault. Please forgive me this time, Your Highness."
Qi Xing leaned down, grabbed her hair and lifted it up fiercely, "Your Highness? What did you call me before? Didn't you call me a piece of shit? Go ahead, call me that again so I can hear it!"
