"What do you mean!" The emperor said with shock. "Are you trying to say that it was King Zhen who ordered you to murder the Queen Mother? This is simply unreasonable!"
While speaking, his eyes fell on Cang Liyuan.
"King Zhen, don't think too much. I am determined not to believe this villain's provocative words!"
Although he said he didn't believe it, his eyes were full of caution.
As for the person involved, Cang Liyuan just sat aside calmly, playing with the teacup in his hand casually.
Being chilled by him like this, the emperor's face was very uneasy.
His expression became increasingly gloomy, and his voice sounded a bit like gritted teeth.
"But after all, this matter is related to the safety of my mother. For the sake of King Zhen's reputation and the overall situation, I can only act in accordance with the procedures! I also hope that King Zhen will not blame you!" After the emperor said this, Cang Liyuan finally said goodbye. She raised her eyes and looked at him.
"Oh? How does the emperor plan to follow the procedures?" Cang Liyuan's eyes, which seemed to be smiling but not smiling, were like a needle pricking the emperor's whole body.
He suppressed the feeling of discomfort and said coldly: "According to the law, if you murder the Queen Mother, you will be interrogated in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment."
As he spoke, he waved, and soon a group of guards rushed in and surrounded Cang Liyuan.
Cang Liyuan, however, didn't even give them a look. He just sneered and said, "So, even the emperor has confirmed that this king is responsible for this matter?"
"I only believe in evidence." The emperor said solemnly, "After the Ministry of Punishment interrogates and investigates, the king will definitely be able to be cleared!"
"very good!"
Cang Liyuan said, but the corners of his lips curled up.
He always had a cold and expressionless look on his face, but now that he suddenly showed such an expression, it made everyone present feel creepy.
They suddenly remembered the rumors about Cang Liyuan, that is, everyone who had seen his smile had already met the King of Hell!
In the past, they only thought it was an exaggeration, but now that they saw it with their own eyes, they felt that this smile was clearly a life-threatening signal.
Some of the timid female relatives couldn't help but cry from fear.
The palace man who had slandered Cang Liyuan just now was shaking like chaff.
At this tense moment, a voice broke the solemnity.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please let me go and rescue the Queen Mother first!" Gu Jiuqing's face was pale and pale, with tears hanging from the corners of his eyes. He looked really pitiful.
At the moment of their confrontation, the second wave of punishment came again.
Gu Jiuqing felt like scolding her!
"The emperor's own son is not as caring about his mother as an outsider." Cang Liyuan said with a cold smile, "This is not how a monarch who governs the country with filial piety should behave!"
"What do you think of me? It's not the king's turn to comment!" The emperor was also angry, as if he was ready to quarrel.
"Oh? Maybe the emperor wants to talk to you personally about this dragon-slaying whip?" Cang Liyuan said, and his subordinates immediately held up a golden whip with both hands.
Seeing this, the emperor's face turned extremely ugly.
This is what makes him most frustrated. He, Cang Liyuan, is just a prince, but his fame and power are far above that of his emperor!
He even has the Dragon-Slaying Whip given by the late Emperor!
Kill the dragon!
This is for the emperor!
When the superior is immoral, the king can ask for this dragon-killing whip to kill the emperor on the spot and choose a wise monarch to succeed him!
He is the emperor, but his fate is in the hands of the king!
How could he not hate it!
"Uncle, calm down, Your Majesty, that's not what he meant! The Queen Mother is the Emperor's mother, so the Emperor is naturally more concerned about the Queen Mother's safety than anyone else! And he also wants to clear the Emperor's uncle's name!" The Queen said quickly,
"You hateful slave! Who ordered you to sow discord between the emperor and the king! Damn it! Someone, drag this nonsense slave down and kill him with a cane!"
However, before the guards could step forward, they all suddenly groaned and fell to the ground.
Their eyes widened one by one, and red blood gushed out from their orifices, making those present scream in fear.
"Escort! Hurry, escort!" The emperor was so frightened that he almost lost his mind. He hurriedly pulled the queen and blocked her in front of him.
Another wave of guards rushed over quickly, and they hurriedly protected the emperor.
At this time, the leading guard checked the corpses and found that these people were all hit in the head in an instant.
But there are no murder weapons on their heads!
"This..." The commander couldn't help but change his expression.
"What's going on? Are they poisoned?" the emperor asked tightly.
"Back to the emperor, they were not poisoned, but were hit in the brain by a master and died instantly!" The man said, and couldn't help but look at Cang Liyuan with some fear.
He noticed that there were water stains on the heads of each corpse, and there were some water stains on Cang Liyuan's fingertips.
Nowadays, with his advanced martial arts skills, even if they all stand in front of the emperor, there is no chance of him stopping Cang Liyuan!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but break down in cold sweat.
"This..." The emperor also realized who was the culprit at this time.
He couldn't help but turn his attention to Cang Liyuan.
At this time, Cang Liyuan sneered and said sarcastically: "I think the emperor understands that if I want to kill people, I have many ways."
After saying that, his subordinate handed him a handkerchief, and he gently wiped away the remaining water stains on his fingertips.
Everyone, "..."
This hand is more shocking than any words!
A thought arose in everyone's mind, that is, they would provoke Cang Liyuan only if they had a trick on their mind!
The atmosphere became extremely solemn for a while.
In the end, the queen said tremblingly: "Since... now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, you all should stand down! I believe that King Zhen will not harm the emperor!"
Even though the emperor was unwilling to do so, he could only ask everyone to leave and take away the dead bodies with them.
After the man left, the puddles of blood on the ground were like slaps, hurting his face!
Seeing that Cang Liyuan lowered his eyes again, the queen took a hard breath and quickly made arrangements in an orderly manner.
The palace attendant quickly brought the medicinal soup again. This time, there was nothing wrong with the medicinal soup.
After the Queen Mother took the medicinal decoction, her gray complexion quickly returned to its rosy appearance.
"Mother..." Cang Junming couldn't help but choked up when he saw this.
"The prescription given by Princess Jin is really effective!" At this time, someone didn't know who said it, which immediately attracted a cold look from the emperor.
But soon, he said warmly: "Princess Jin has made great achievements in saving the Queen Mother this time, so I have to reward you! Princess Jin, what reward do you want!"
"I don't need a reward." Gu Jiuqing said.
What a joke, she is not a fool, how could she not see the twists and turns in this.
I'm afraid that after she cured the Queen Mother, the Emperor would like to kill her!
"Why not?" Cang Liyuan said coolly, "You don't want rewards, you think you understand justice, but you don't know that you are trapping the emperor in an unjust place!
The emperor governs the country with filial piety. You cured the queen mother and fulfilled the emperor's filial piety. The emperor should reward you vigorously to set an example for filial sons in the world! do you think so? emperor? "
"What King Zhen said is true!" The smile on the emperor's face was so stiff that he could hardly hold it on.
Immediately, he listed a lot of rewards.
Gu Jiuqing didn't feel the slightest pleasure when this wealth and wealth fell from the sky.
She couldn't help but secretly glare at Cang Liyuan, and thought without tears, this person must be deliberately trying to harm her!
Then, a bright light suddenly flashed across her almost dazed mind.
Ruined!
