What does his majestic saint have? He can't ask for anything from her. If he is forced to death, he should just let her do some tiring and dangerous things. Moreover, she can also learn the soul-searching technique after this.
Why not?
She made a huge profit from this deal!
Jiye didn't know what she was thinking, her consciousness moved slightly and submerged into Xu Zongcheng's divine sea.
Xu Zongcheng suddenly felt a stabbing pain in his head and his eyes glazed over.
More than ten years ago...
Jiye's eyes gradually became as dark as a black abyss, and a hint of deep purple appeared at the bottom of his eyes, which gradually smudged out, swallowing up the other ink colors, and the entire pupils returned to his original color.
More than ten years ago, when the new emperor ascended the throne, the whole country celebrated together, and the whole country was filled with joy.
Before the enthronement ceremony, the loyal prime minister who followed the late emperor walked alone into the palace where the new emperor was staying and said he had something important to report.
Zhai Yantian glanced at Xu Zongcheng and waved to signal the maids in dragon robes who were about to serve him to step back and prepare to listen to the secrets Xu Zongcheng wanted to report.
"Your Majesty, I have captured a letter. It is a letter from the Queen and her mother's family. Your Majesty, please take a look."
Xu Zongcheng said, took out a letter from his sleeve and presented it to Zhai Yantian.
Zhai Yantian took the letter, opened it, and frowned gradually as he read the contents.
"My dear, I know you are talented, but I believe she won't...well!"
As Zhai Yantian was talking, he was suddenly hit by a knife on the back of his neck. He groaned and fainted on the ground.
At this moment, Xu Zongcheng completely lost his previous humility.
His greedy eyes fell on the gloomy yellow dragon robe hanging neatly next to it. He stepped forward and touched the patterns embroidered with gold thread on it with both hands eagerly.
The father-in-law waited outside for a long time and looked anxiously at the sky outside. Seeing that the people inside had not come out yet, he couldn't help but become anxious and knocked on the door at the risk of his head falling to the ground.
"Your Majesty, the ceremony is about to begin!"
"Crack!"
Suddenly there was a sound of porcelain falling to the ground. Eunuch Li was startled and quickly opened the door and ran in.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, are you okay?!"
"I'm fine."
Zhai Yantian glanced at Eunuch Li and glared at Xu Zongcheng who was on the ground with anger.
"Xu Zongcheng just wanted to sneak attack me! Fortunately, I reacted quickly and didn't let him succeed!"
Hearing this, Eunuch Li lowered his head and looked at Xu Zongcheng, who had fainted on the ground. He saw that his face and other places had been scratched several times by sharp objects, and there was a dazzling red color.
From the corner of his eye, Eunuch Li caught a glimpse of the broken porcelain fragments lying on the ground. Thinking of the injuries on Xu Zongcheng's face, he understood.
"Order someone to take him to prison! He will be dealt with!" Zhai Yantian said angrily.
"Yes...yes..."
Upon seeing this, Eunuch Li immediately nodded and bowed, ordered people to drag Xu Zongcheng down, and ordered people to clean up the debris on the ground.
Eunuch Li said cautiously: "Your Majesty, what about the position of prime minister..."
Zhai Yantian glanced sideways at him, snorted coldly, and said: "There is no need to be so anxious about this matter. The enthronement ceremony is the most important thing at the moment."
After hearing this, Eunuch Li hurriedly responded and privately glanced at the maids who were standing aside.
"Why are you still standing there? Why don't you wait for the emperor to change his clothes!"
"...Yes, yes...Yes..."
The maids were stunned by the blood stains on the ground. When they heard Eunuch Li's scolding, they quickly walked over to Zhai Yantian to serve him.
