Xing'an knelt on the ground, panicked, kowtowing like pounding garlic:
"Your Majesty, have mercy on me, Your Majesty, please have mercy on me!"
"You are a noble man from the sky, and I am a disabled person. Everything I have today is your grace. I don't dare to expect more!"
"Please, Your Majesty, for the sake of serving you, please spare me!"
"This slave is willing to resign and guard the late emperor's tomb for the rest of his life!"
"Hahaha, I was just kidding Da Yue." Zhu Qiyu laughed loudly.
Xing'an was sweating like rain, his whole body was limp, and he lay on the ground unable to get up.
This is no joke.
As long as a word is spread, his life will be in danger.
Those civil servants have been eyeing the eunuchs for more than a day or two.
Even though he is the Chief of Ceremonies and the Eunuch in Charge of Printing, he has a high and powerful position.
Once he develops contempt for the imperial power, his death is not far away.
Suddenly.
He was stunned, the emperor was beating him.
Tell him that you are the emperor's slave, I can give you power, or I can kill you!
He lay on the ground and looked up at Zhu Qiyu. When did he become so powerful?
"Wang Qin, help Da Jue up quickly."
"I said a few heart-wrenching words to Da Xun, how could I scare Da Xun to such an extent?"
"Could it be..."
"Is there a ghost in your heart?"
Plop!
Xing'an, who had just been helped up, fell to the ground again.
His legs were weak and unable to support him, so he lay directly on the ground.
The dignified Chief of Ceremonies, the eunuch in charge of the seal, has never been so embarrassed.
"This servant is loyal to Your Majesty..."
Before Xing'an finished his words of loyalty, Zhu Qiyu waved his hand: "Okay, the empress dowager is in a hurry. It's time to send someone to hurry up again."
The royal chariot went out, leaving Xing'an alone in the cold wind.
Entering Renshou Palace, Zhu Qiyu got off the chariot and walked.
He did not come directly to Renshou Palace, but walked around the imperial city, deliberately letting the palace people see that he, the emperor, was very healthy.
This has two purposes.
First, he wanted to tell the palace people that Zhu Qiyu was still alive, so he should put aside all his thoughts that he shouldn’t have.
Second, stabilize the old witch and delay time for Wang Cheng and Shu Liang to arrest the traitor.
As for how effective it will be, it’s up to God.
Enter the main hall.
Zhu Qiyu saw the Empress Dowager Sun sitting upright, while his mother was sitting on pins and needles.
When Zhu Qiyu entered the palace, she winked at him many times, but she was ignored by the Empress Dowager Sun, who remained calm.
"I pay my respects to the Queen Mother."
In order to distinguish between Empress Dowager Sun and Empress Dowager Wu, the former is called the Holy Mother and the latter is the Queen Mother.
Holy Mother, are you worthy?
He couldn't scream either.
Zhu Qiyu spoke harshly and knelt on the ground.
Empress Dowager Sun looked at Zhu Qiyu, she had indeed changed, but so what, the throne should be returned to whomever it belongs to. You have stolen the throne for eight years, which is long enough. It is time to return to the original track. p>
She glanced at the Empress Dowager Wu from the corner of her eye, with a cold look: Humph, there is this disgusting woman, and she is not worthy of sitting in the Palace of Renshou. A sinful woman, who clung to a dragon and attached herself to a phoenix, gave birth to a prince out of nowhere. She committed a heinous crime, but now she is riding on her head, showing off her power.
, even more damnable!
"The emperor is cured? Then the world will be stable."
Empress Dowager Sun spoke perfunctorily and did not let Zhu Qiyu get up.
This is to give him power.
Dare to hit someone from the Ai family?
The emperor also has to pay the price.
"I apologize to the Empress Dowager for interfering in the affairs of the state, and I punished him. Please atone for my sins!"
Zhu Qiyu's tone is neither humble nor overbearing.
But in the ears of Queen Mother Sun, she was like a stubborn Sun Monkey who could not escape from Wuzhishan after all.
"Let it be punished. If the emperor punishes a slave, what crime does he need to apologize for?"
Empress Dowager Sun smiled lightly: "The emperor is angry, so let him come back."
She waved Xu Bin over.
Xu Bin relied on someone to support him, pushed aside the rough eunuch, and swaggered into the hall.
Then, he stopped straight in front of Zhu Qiyu!
Zhu Qiyu is kneeling!
The majestic Ming Emperor actually knelt in front of the eunuch!
This is not a show of force!
The old witch is making him lose all his majesty and turn him back into the cowardly emperor whom she can manipulate at will!
I, the emperor, am no better than a dog!
Zhu Qiyu's eyes were red.
He endured it for the sake of his mother.
"I would like to thank the Empress Dowager for her generosity. My mother has been harassing the Empress Dowager for a long time. I have some private things to say to my mother, and I would like to ask the Empress Dowager for her permission."
Zhu Qiyu kowtowed.
Xu Bin accepted it calmly, with a proud look on his lips.
The eunuchs and maids in the palace are all used to it.
Which time did the emperor not obediently apologize to the Holy Mother? It would be strange if he did not apologize.
Haha, the emperor and his son are both a joke.
"Yes, I have been harassing the Holy Mother for a long time..."
Empress Dowager Wu answered tremblingly.
She realized later and didn't care at all about the scene where the emperor kowtowed to the eunuch.
Zhu Qiyu didn't understand why his mother was suddenly afraid of the Queen Mother?
What pigtails did she get caught in?
"Sister, this Renshou Palace is deserted, so I will spend a few days with the Ai family here to relieve my boredom."
As soon as he finished speaking, Nie Shanggong, the head of the female officials in the palace, walked to the side of Empress Dowager Wu and made a gesture of invitation.
Empress Dowager Wu looked at her son aggrievedly and reluctantly sat down.
"Xing'an, the emperor has recovered from his illness. Send all the memorials to the emperor. They will be used for the morning court tomorrow."
This will tire the emperor to death!
Even a blind person can see that the emperor looks haggard and recovering from a serious illness.
But this is not enough.
"The Ai family made ginseng soup and were about to send it to the emperor. It just happened, so let's drink it here..."
Bang!
The Tang Pozi in Queen Mother Wu's hand fell to the ground.
The Holy Mother wants to poison the emperor!
The emperor has no biological son, and the prince is Zhu Jianshen, the son of the Supreme Emperor.
If the emperor dies and the prince succeeds to the throne, will he pursue his own grandmother for killing his uncle?
With a pop, Empress Dowager Wu knelt on the ground and trembled: "I happen to be thirsty. Can you please give me the ginseng soup?"
Zhu Qiyu was also stupid.
If the ginseng soup is poisonous, his life will be at stake.
Don't think there's no such possibility.
How did Zhu Qiyu die in history?
Being strangled to death by the eunuch.
He had a minor illness, and after Nangong's restoration, he was strangled to death. Who in the future would overturn his verdict?
He has no son!
The kings who will succeed him are all the descendants of Zhu Qizhen. Will he reverse his verdict?
No!
The key palace is completely controlled by the Queen Mother.
After she poisoned the emperor, she sent him back to Qianqing Palace, where she said that the emperor had died violently, and then silenced all the insiders.
Who will check?
Zhu Qiyu was covered in cold sweat, and his hands were shaking unconsciously.
For the first time, he was so close to death.
"It's just ginseng soup. My sister can drink as much as she wants."
The Empress Dowager Sun said calmly: "This is what the Ai family cooked for the emperor with their own hands. It is the affection of the aunt of the Ai family for her son. My sister, please don't take it away."
Nie Shanggong came with a bowl of ginseng soup.
When she walked to Zhu Qiyu's side, she turned slightly sideways, not daring to accept Zhu Qiyu's kneeling ceremony.
"Emperor, drink it, it will help your illness." Empress Dowager Sun's expression was meaningful.
