"Your Highness is wise!"
The ministers all spoke out.
Although they didn't know why Zhu Qiyu was suddenly so magnanimous, it was the best outcome for them to not continue to pester this matter.
"Alright, all of you can leave. Have a good rest tonight. We'll be busy tomorrow.”
Zhu Qiyu smiled and waved his hand.
The ministers cupped their hands and left the Heaven Tribute Hall with uneasy hearts.
Yu Qian, Wang Zhi, Hu Fou, and the others felt uneasy. They always felt that it was impossible to let the matter go just like that. However, since Zhu Qiyu was so magnanimous, they couldn't be too entangled. Otherwise, what if Zhu Qiyu fell out with them?
Although he felt uneasy, he could only take it one step at a time.
"Eunuch Jin, stay here for a while. This king has something to tell you.”
Zhu Qiyu stopped Jin Ying.
Even when Wang Zhen had the upper hand, Jin Ying's status in the palace was very high. He was an old man by Zhu Zhanji's side.
Many people didn't know that eunuchs in the palace also had to be ranked according to seniority.
Jin Ying stopped in her tracks and her body stopped in place. Her tone was neither humble nor arrogant."May I know what instructions Your Highness has?"
Every old man in the palace was an extremely intelligent person. Those who were not intelligent would have died long ago and would not have lived for long.
Zhu Qiyu walked up to Jin Ying and handed over the blood-stained sword in his hand. He said lightly,""Eunuch Jin, you are a smart person, so this king will not beat around the bush with you. Do you want to die or live?”
The reason why he chose Jin Ying was purely because he had lived in the palace for a long time and knew many things.
If Jin Ying submitted, that would naturally be the best.
If Jin Ying chose to die, it wouldn't have much of an impact. It would just cost her more time and energy.
"Your Highness, what do you mean?" Jin Ying's heart sank. This old servant doesn't quite understand."
He understood that Zhu Qiyu was forcing him to take a stand. However, he was already very old, so he did not want to be involved in too much trouble. He only wanted to retire honestly.
"Eunuch Jin, you were once an old man by my father's side. You know many people and things in the palace better than this king. Therefore, this king has decided to give you a chance…"
Zhu Qiyu looked straight at Jin Ying and said coldly.
He had originally wanted to clean up the entire palace and replace all the palace maids and eunuchs with new people.
There was only one life. Although Zhu Qiyu had the system, he still needed to be careful. After all, the Imperial Palace had been run by Zhu Qizhen and Sun Ruowei for too long. No one knew how many of their spies there were.
In history, after Zhu Qiyu ascended the throne, he must have cleansed the palace, but in the end, Zhu Jianji still died of an unknown illness. Even Zhu Qiyu died suddenly.
One thing was called coincidence, but it happened one after another. There was something hidden in the dark.
Looking at history, a bold guess suddenly appeared. It was that the illness of Zhu Qiyu and Zhu Jianji might have been man-made poisoning.
Jin Ying was silent for a while before she asked faintly,""Wangye, what do you want this old servant to do?”
When one was under the eaves, one had no choice but to lower one's head.
Jin Ying knew very well that if he didn't do as Zhu Qiyu said, the fate of Ma Shun, Wang Changsui, and Mao Gui might become his final outcome. Who asked him to be chosen by Zhu Qiyu?
"There is no limit to the number of people who can purge the palace. This king only has one request, and that is that there can only be one voice in the palace from now on.”
Zhu Qiyu stared at Jin Ying and said indifferently.
Although his tone was very calm, his words contained boundless killing intent.
It could be predicted that if Jin Ying followed Zhu Qiyu's instructions, the air in the Imperial Palace would definitely be filled with the thick smell of blood.
"There is no limit to the number of people!"
Jin Ying's pupils contracted violently when she heard this.
The scene just now made him realize Zhu Qiyu's ruthlessness, but he did not expect Zhu Qiyu to be even more brutal than he thought.
Xing An and Cheng Jing were also shocked. The two of them looked at each other and eventually maintained their silence.
The fight for the throne was a life and death battle.
Benevolence to the enemy was cruelty to his own people.
Zhu Qiyu slowly placed the sword on Jin Ying's neck and asked,""What's wrong? Can't Eunuch Jin do as I say?”
"Plop!"
Jin Ying knelt on the ground and thought,""Your highness, this old servant will definitely satisfy your highness.”
He knew very well that if he didn't agree now, he wouldn't have a future.
Although he was very unwilling to get involved in the battle between Zhu Qiyu and Zhu Qizhen, after being targeted by Zhu Qiyu, he no longer had the ability to jump out.
"Very good. I hope you won't disappoint this king. The Empress Dowager won't be too quiet. You can wait until this king and the Empress Dowager decide the victor.”
Zhu Qiyu helped Jin Ying up and said softly.
After what had just happened, if nothing unexpected happened, Sun Ruowei would make some moves soon. Perhaps she was planning something at this moment.
Jin Ying did not say anything. This was exactly what he had planned in his heart.
"Haha!"
Zhu Qiyu chuckled and patted Jin Ying's shoulder.""Eunuch Jin, this king will not mistreat anyone who has made a contribution, and similarly, I will not let a traitor off. You can wait until this king and the empress dowager decide the victor before doing something, but in that case, after the matter is settled, you can retire.”
The effort was always proportional to the harvest. The icing on the cake was never as good as sending charcoal in the snow.
Jin Ying was still silent, her heart struggling violently.
"Alright, you can leave first. This king is waiting for your choice. If you've thought it through, come and tell this king.”
Zhu Qiyu waved his hand and said.
Jin Ying was crucial, but she was not irreplaceable.
If Jin Ying had chosen to build the wall, Zhu Qiyu would have Cheng Jing lead his men to start cleaning first. As for Xing An, this kid's personality was not suitable for such things. Compared to cleaning the palace, Xing An was more suitable for serving people.
"This old servant will take his leave!"
Jin Ying bowed and left the Hall of Heaven's Tribute.
Today was not a peaceful day for him. He needed to think carefully about what decision he should make. There was no doubt that no matter what decision he made, it would have a huge impact on his future.
Zhu Qiyu looked at the cold hall and immersed himself in it for a moment. Then, he walked toward the residence of his birth mother, Imperial Concubine Wu.
