Her heart sank to the bottom. Gong Dai chose to act today. What position did he place her in?
Su Miaolan felt confused. Her glorious past was like a dream! Did she really have this man in her hands?
Gong Che didn't seem to feel anything. He sat on the ground as if he had lost his soul.
Gong Dai's ministers were silent. The generals sat in their seats and drank. Gong Che's old group of civil officials panicked. Some ministers said angrily.
"Prince Regent! Are you trying to rebel?! "
At this time, someone brought an armchair over and quietly placed it behind Gong Jue. The man who brought the chair over turned out to be the commander of Gong Che's Inner Imperial Guard! He had indeed turned to the Prince Regent. No wonder …
No wonder Gong Dai couldn't bear it anymore. He had already broken through Gong Che's last line of defense!
He wanted to force the Prince to abdicate! He wanted to become the only person in power in Dai Yu State in front of all the officials present!
Whoever dared to disobey would die here!
GongYimo saw the silent man in soft armor. He was one of her former subordinates. Because he was silent and honest, she arranged for him to be the commander of the Imperial Guards.
He was so happy that he swore in front of her that he would protect the Emperor and her with his life.
But he betrayed her in just half a year?
"Li Suinian, how dare you betray His Majesty?!"
Someone shouted. When Gong Dai heard the name Li Suinian, he seemed to think of something. He looked up and saw the silent man in soft armor standing beside Gong Dai.
Li Suinian didn't say a word when he was questioned. He was as silent as a statue!
The civil officials were even more frightened. They turned to question the generals who were still in the mood to drink.
"And you! The late Empress treated you so well! She only died half a year ago! Is this how you repay her?! "
The generals were all cold and indifferent. Hearing this, no one paid any attention. They continued to drink. The youngest general couldn't help but hold his wine cup and sneered.
"Each and every one of you enjoyed the peace brought by the previous Empress, but for the sake of benefits, you supported Su Miaolan to ascend to the position of Empress! Is this how you repay her? "
The more he spoke, the angrier he became. His knuckles gradually turned blue as he gripped the wine glass!
Once he got angry, the person who spoke was immediately forced to kneel down by the Imperial Guards! He said angrily, still unwilling to give up.
"The former Empress entrusted His Majesty's safety to you, and you also swore!"
At this moment, Li Suinian suddenly glanced at Gong Che. There was only coldness on his dark face.
"He also swore to only love the Empress."
However, as the Emperor, he was unable to do so … Heh.
Li Suinian smiled stiffly.
"He's not worthy."
He was not worthy of their loyalty!
Yes, they were the people left behind by the late Empress. The late Empress wanted them to protect the imperial power, so they swore an oath!
Therefore, even though they hated the Emperor, they didn't do anything in the beginning.
They hated Gong Dai even more. After all, he was the one who killed the late Empress!
However, later, Gong Dai sent people to persuade them repeatedly, and they changed sides one by one.
Li Suinian didn't understand at first. When he caught the first person who changed sides to Gong Dai and questioned him, he smiled and told him the reason for the betrayal …
He said that the Empress ended up like that because of the Regent's ruthlessness, but wasn't the Emperor the most hateful person?!
The Regent and the Empress were on opposite sides. What was wrong with the Regent getting rid of his dissidents? But what about the Emperor?!
The Empress was so good to him! No matter how big or small, she wanted nothing more than to present the best of everything in the world to him!
But how did he repay the Empress?
When the Empress returned from the battlefield, she was restless and regretful every day, but he removed her from the position of Empress!
He swore to only love the Empress, but he doted on a woman who was nothing but hypocritical!
He slandered the Empress for being ambitious! Because of fear, he took away the Empress's power!
Yes! The Regent was too much! However, the Regent was right about one thing. The Emperor could only atone for his actions with his death!
At that moment, something seemed to break in Li Suinian's heart.
His mind was full of the Empress when she was alive … Finally, a few days ago, he agreed to the Regent.
And the Regent promised that as long as he changed sides, he would allow Gong Ji to be the Emperor. So, Li Suinian agreed to cooperate with him!
Gong Dai also completely conquered the last line of defense around Gong Che.
Gong Che smiled bitterly when he heard Li Suinian's last words. He looked around as if he was in a dream, looking at the suppressed officials, the frightened women, the silent old officials, the indifferent generals … and the cold armor of the imperial guards.
There were so many people in the magnificent hall, but he suddenly felt cold … so empty …
There was nothing here … Nothing at all.
He couldn't help but remember that when he had a headache, Mo 'er would read memorials to him. After reading them, she would give a very humorous comment on the person's choice of words and the content of the memorials. Sometimes she would be frivolous, sometimes she would give a serious opinion, and then he would accept it all. Now that he thought about it, even reading memorials was such an interesting thing …
Mo 'er … I … I miss you so much …
Will I be able to see you after I die?
Mo 'er …
"Do you know why you lost?"
Gong Dai's voice seemed to come from the horizon.
From last night to now, he was sitting here.
It was peaceful in the hall, but outside the palace, there must be a bloody storm.
He admired Gong Che's expression of despair. Even though he hadn't slept all night, Gong Dai was still refreshed and full of smiles.
Gong Che's gaze finally focused on Gong Dai's body, but he was silent. The bright color of the dragon robe seemed to dim along with his eyes. He had always avoided it before. Before he died, he really wanted to hear how Gong Dai would directly criticize him.
Someone handed over a cup of tea. The light colored glass cup shone with a myriad of colors under the light, but what was even more attractive was Gong Dai's hand. Every movement was so pleasing to the eye, high above and inviolable.
Just now, he had given Gong Che a few solid punches. Now, there was no harm in being kind and letting him die in peace.
"You lost because … you were too incompetent!"
The Emperor had given up. It was clear that the situation was set. The officials who had been noisy just now were all quiet now. They wanted to live, so how could they dare to say anything?
So when they heard the Regent humiliate the Emperor like this, they were angry but didn't dare to say anything. They could only listen.
Although they heard it, it was the truth.
Nearing death, Gong Che was actually clear-headed, and he even nodded.
"You're right."
Gong Che stared at a place and revealed a bitter smile. At that moment, he seemed to have become that cultured and refined Emperor again, as if he was talking to himself.
"I was useless. It was because I was useless that I couldn't stand being instigated and suspected Mo 'er. That was why I felt that I couldn't control her and removed her … made her a mere figurehead …"
Gong Dai held the teacup and lightly took a sip. He sneered.
"Not only incompetent, but also blind."
