Nearly a hundred officials knelt in front of the Meridian Gate. Most of them had white hair and were either former or current officials. The momentum was so great that it was unheard of since the founding of the country. This was especially true for the Prime Minister, who had the highest reputation among the people. Not long after, it attracted many people to look from outside the gate.
As more and more people gathered, even the guards were unable to chase them away. In Funing Palace, the half-grinded ink block in Cao Hou's hand fell onto the inkstone. The ink splattered onto the portrait of Cao Hou that the Heaven Choice Emperor was drawing. In the end, the painting was destroyed.
Seeing this, Cao Hou's brows moved and she became even more furious, "Rebel! Rebel! They are rebelling! What is the meaning of this? Are they trying to force me to abdicate in front of everyone? How dare he! That old man, Tan Shiyuan, I've already shown him mercy by not exterminating his entire family on account of his loyalty to the country. But he actually dares to cause such a ruckus. Men, chop his head off. I want his head right now! "
Zhao Bin was scared out of his wits and scrambled over, "Empress, please reconsider! Although Tan Shiyuan has been removed from his position, his reputation among the people was not built up in a day or two. If you really behead him, I'm afraid the people will resent you. "
The palace servants all boldly tried to persuade her. Cao Hou was so angry that her vision darkened and her temples bulged. The palace servants quickly helped her to sit down.
Cao Hou paused for a moment before opening her eyes. She sneered, "This must be the work of that Tan and Xiahou Qing. One is saving his son and the other is saving his sweetheart. They really put in a lot of effort. Those rumors in the capital must have come from Xiahou Qing. They want to use the mouths of the people to kill me! "
"Feng Zheng, Wei Ze Cheng, Song Beiyan … … This empress remembers all of them! Even the Zhou Family is trying to fish in troubled waters. Your Majesty, it seems like your youngest and most obedient son is also coveting your throne. "
After pretending to be an emotionless mouthpiece for several days, Tian Ze Emperor slowly put down the writing brush in his hand and said flatly and stiffly, "Back then, Zhen also had other thoughts. That was why Zhen ascended the throne with the help of the Empress. Now that this son has grown up, no matter how much this empress fantasized about living as long as the heavens, it is just a fantasy. I can't be the emperor forever. At this point, I have already accepted my fate. No matter who succeeds the throne, it is out of my control. The Empress should be able to understand. "
"Understanding?" Cao Hou found it extremely funny, laughing so hard that she couldn't even care about her bearing. "Did I hear wrongly just now? You actually want me to understand? His Majesty was indeed His Majesty. After so many years of acting so dignified, he had become a mask. What a good 'not something you can control'. If I didn't get your hint, just based on the fact that Xiao Yun Jin wasn't the son of the first wife, he wasn't the son of the first wife, he wasn't the son of the first wife, he wasn't the son of the first wife, he wasn't the son of the first wife, he wasn't the son of the first wife, he wasn't the son of the first wife, he wasn't the son of the first wife, he wasn't the son of the first wife, he wasn't the son of the first wife, he wasn't the son of the first wife, he wasn't the son of the first wife, he wasn't the son of the first wife, he wasn't the son of the first wife, he wasn't the son of the first wife, he wasn't the son of the first wife, he wasn't the son of the first wife, he wasn't the son of the first wife Our Majesty is truly an expert at wiping out people's hearts. Even I was almost fooled! Your Majesty, why don't you tell me who you're going to order to go against me next? "
After his mask was exposed, the muscles on Heaven's Choice Emperor's face trembled imperceptibly. He continued to speak without any surprise: "What is the Empress saying? Ever since zhen fell ill, zhen's spirit has not been as good as before. Zhen cannot leave the Empress' medicine for a moment. How would she have the energy to do that? The Empress is overthinking it. "
Cao Hou raised her head and laughed: "Overthinking it? It was because I thought too little in the past that I fell into your trap again and again! My good Majesty, do you really think I can't guess who you are secretly paving the way for? When you were also hit by the Kiss of the Plum Blossom, you probably already guessed it. Xiahou Qing's blood flows in your body! "
