Chu Chengyao held Zhou Yuexue's hand: "I said before that you don't need to salute when you see me, and now you don't need to."
Zhou Yuexue smiled coquettishly: "I know that the emperor loves me, but this is unreasonable. I don't want to make people criticize the emperor because of me."
Chu Chengyao supported Zhou Yuexue's shoulders and said gently: "I know you are the most considerate and sensible person."
Zhou Yuexue looked shy: "Oh Your Majesty, Sister Jinyan is still watching."
Chu Chengyao turned his head to look at Lin Jinyan, who was glaring at him. His face turned cold, and there was no warmth in his eyes, as if the person in front of him was not the wife who helped him ascend to the throne, but an unrelated ant.
Lin Jinyan's heart was numb with pain. She straightened up her broken body and looked at the person beside her pillow and asked: "Chu Chengyao, my Lin family and Gu family are completely sincere to you! But you are plotting against us like this! Even if you don't miss the Gu Lin family, To help you! You have ascended to the throne, and the Gu family, whom you regard as a threat, has been exiled to Mobei by you. Why are you still worried? If you still have any conscience, just let my father and my brother go. They pose no threat to you, why would you bother to detain them in the palace again!"
Chu Chengyao said coldly: "What love do they have for me? When the prince was at the peak of his power, I asked you to ask the Gu and Lin families to help me. You said that the generals of the Gu family only protect the family and the country and do not involve the court. You Lin family It’s just that I am a pure minister who is loyal to the king and does not get involved in party disputes. After I tried my best to defeat the prince and competed with the third son, the Gu family came to help, but the people in the world mistakenly thought that I had won the Gu and Lin family because I married you. It is only through support that one can ascend to great positions.”
Lin Jinyan shook her head and frowned angrily: "My maternal grandfather was a loyal and patriotic person. At that time, the prince was sitting in the East Palace and obeying God's will. If the Gu and Lin families help you to overthrow the prince, it is equivalent to conspiracy! After the prince was deposed, the princes each relied on their own abilities. If the Gu and Lin families hadn't helped you, how could you have become this great person!"
Chu Chengyao's face was gloomy and he said angrily: "I was able to sit in this position because of all my own plans! What does it have to do with your Gu and Lin family! At first, I looked down on me without the support of my mother's family, and then I became a faggot to grab a follower. His contribution! Doesn’t the Gu family pride themselves on being loyal ministers who protect the family and the country? I want him to become a traitor who will be infamous for thousands of years! Aren’t the Lin family civil servants with a clear character? I want him to become the culprit who framed Zhongliang!”
Lin Jinyan put her hands on the ground and shouted in an evil voice: "Chu Chengyao!! You shameless villain who repays kindness with revenge and betrayal! There is a god three feet above your head! Aren't you afraid of retribution!!"
Chu Chengyao took two steps towards Lin Jinyan and stood in front of the window, looking down at Lin Jinyan and said, "The Gu family has received the retribution he deserves, and the Lin family will be next."
His tone when he said this seemed to be just an ordinary sentence, and his tone didn't even fluctuate.
When Lin Jinyan heard this, it was like thunder in her ears. She looked at Chu Chengyao blankly, as if all her anger had disappeared in an instant.
The sun shone on Chu Chengyao's bright yellow dragon robe, which made Lin Jinyan's eyes hurt. Her tears were like broken beads.
She leaned down and slowly crawled to Chu Chengyao's feet. Her legs had been broken and she could only drag herself with her hands. His fingers broke open the wound on his hand, white and red traces of blood snaked down his hand, and slowly several traces of blood appeared behind him.
Chu Chengyao watched Lin Jinyan walking slowly, without making a sound to urge him, just watching indifferently.
