“!!!”
Feng Quji's words were like a bolt of lightning in the ears of Jiang Lu and the others.
His Majesty was going to ascend the throne today?
The second emperor of Great Qin?
Zhao Tuo?
At this moment, they looked at Zhao Tuo, who had his hands behind his back and was wearing a dragon robe. He was staring at them coldly.
General Lu and the others felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.
He had really usurped the throne!
How is this possible…How is this possible?
Then, wouldn't those who had bullied and suppressed him before…
"Looking at your expressions, you seem to be a little afraid?”Zhao Tuo laughed, his eyes filled with anger.
Jiang Lu was the first to recover and quickly said,"Zhao…Your Majesty! What happened before was all a misunderstanding! It's a misunderstanding!"
"I hope that Your Majesty will let me off on account of my father and blood ties!”
Hearing this, the group of young masters and concubines behind Jiang Lu finally entered the situation and begged.
Now that things had come to this, how could they not know?
Why did Zhao Tuo specially call them over?
"Your Majesty…back then, your mother and I were like sisters!”
"My previous actions were indeed blind. I hope Your Majesty will show mercy!”
"Imperial Father, I beg you to plead with His Majesty. Your son knows his mistake.”
"High Emperor…I hope that on account of Hao 'er, Your Majesty will show mercy!”
……
In an instant, some cried, some begged for mercy, and some even asked Ying Zheng for help.
The young masters and concubines were in a mess.
Only Zhao Tuo stood at the very front, his smile even colder.
Seeing this scene, Ying Zheng and Meng Yi were stunned.
When Zhao Tuo called these young masters and concubines over, they thought that Zhao Tuo might not be doing well in the harem.
Therefore, he wanted to settle the accounts one by one after registration.
However, in their opinion, how far could this punishment go?
Seeing the looks of the crowd, Ying Zheng, who was already frustrated, could not help but shout angrily,""Look at you, what a disgrace!”
"Who asked you brothers to scheme against each other back then? He deserves to be punished lightly today!"
However, after hearing Ying Zheng's words, not only did the concubines and young masters not stop crying, they even cried even harder.
"Enough!"
Ying Zheng, who had a splitting headache from the noise, waved his sleeve and stood up angrily.
"Cry, cry, cry, all you know is to cry! You've thrown my face away!"
"Why is the punishment so small? At worst, I'll be expelled from the palace and see all of you cry.”
"Imperial Father, please save this son. This son doesn't want to die!”
"That's right, Imperial Father. His Majesty…will definitely not let us off easily.”
Looking at Young Master Hao, who was crying so hard that his nose was dripping with snot and tears, although Ying Zheng had been frowning for a long time, his tone had softened.
"Tuo 'er, you're the one who has the final say in Great Qin. We can't stop your decision, and we won't.“
"I only want to know how you will treat your brothers and concubines.”
Hearing Ying Zheng's question, Zhao Tuo glanced at the crowd in front of him with great interest, whose heads were already filled with a black wave of air that represented fear.
"Imperial Father, you don't have to worry. I won't rely on my status to do anything overboard.”
Hearing this, Jiang Lu and the others were about to heave a sigh of relief when they heard Zhao Tuo change the topic.
" But it's just…"
"Return everything they have done to me!”
Hearing Zhao Tuo's answer, Ying Zheng nodded in satisfaction.
Then, he looked at Jiang Lu and the others.
"Are you relieved now?"
“……”
"What's with the look in your eyes?"
Looking at the despairing faces of Jiang Lu and the others, Ying Zheng's face turned ugly.
"Are you still not satisfied? Don't push your luck!"
"Imperial Father, save me! Father, save me!"
"Father, I don't want to die…"
The young masters and concubines were extremely excited.
If not for the Iron Eagle Guards who had rushed over to stop them, they would have already rushed up to Ying Zheng, hugging his thigh and begging for mercy.
Upon seeing this, Ying Zheng, who had been disapproving of it, suddenly thought of something.
Zhao Tuo also spoke in a deep voice.
He took a step forward and stared at the people in front of him with a cold expression.
"Jiang Lu! Zhen asks you, seven years ago outside the palace, did you order someone to poison my wine?”
Poison!
Ying Zheng was shocked, and he looked at General Lu angrily.
Facing Zhao Tuo and Ying Zheng's gazes, Jiang Lv shook his head subconsciously.
"No…it wasn't me! Your Majesty, please understand!"
"Insight? Humph…"
Zhao Tuo pointed at a eunuch behind him.
"Back then, you sent him out of the palace to catch the medicine outside Xianyang City. You want me to bring that shopkeeper to confront you?”
"How did you know?"
Jiang Lu raised his head in shock.
However, he immediately realized that something was wrong.
However, before he could react, a shadow quickly enlarged in front of him.
"Pa!"
A clear slap rang out, causing Lu to be slapped to the ground by Ying Zheng.
"You unfilial son! How old were you seven years ago? Why would he do such a thing to his own brother?”
"Ha…Father, who do you think influenced a teenager to have such thoughts?”
Zhao Tuo locked his ice-cold gaze onto Yue Ji who was behind Jiang Lu.
"Back then, it was you, along with the other two concubines, who wanted to kill me time and time again.”
"Your Majesty! I…"
"You want to quibble? It's alright…Autumn Bamboo, come here."”
Yue Ji looked behind her in astonishment.
This Qiu Zhu had followed her for ten years and was her most trusted personal palace maid.
It could be said that many things that could not be seen were done by Qiu Zhu.
But even so, Yue Ji was not worried at all at this time.
She believed that Autumn Bamboo was absolutely loyal to her. Even if she died, she would not expose her!
However, the next scene completely dumbfounded her.
Qiu Zhu slowly walked in front of Zhao Tuo and bowed respectfully.
"Autumn Bamboo greets Your Majesty."
" En, tell me about all the things you experienced in Yue Ji Palace these few years.”
"Here…"
Practically without any hesitation, Qiu Zhu spilled everything that he did to help Yue Ji these few years from beginning to end.
From secretly colluding with other concubines to forming cliques, to harming Zhao Tuo several times.
He didn't even hold back at all when he spoke of the vile ideas he usually instilled in Jiang Lv.
Hearing Qiu Zhu's story, Ying Zheng's face turned completely dark.
"Nonsense! You, a palace maid, dare to slander bengong!”
Yue Ji's face was deathly pale, and the finger pointing at Qiu Zhu trembled violently.
Qiu Zhu was unmoved by this accusation.
" I was exiled ten years ago," said Zhao Tuo with a sneer." I was not allowed to step into the palace. You guys then divided my palace maids and eunuchs among yourselves.”
"But how would you know that this matter is exactly what I want?”
"Think about it now. How many of the palace maids and eunuchs around you were snatched from my palace back then?”
As soon as he said that, all the young masters and concubines present felt a chill in their hearts.
In the entire Xianyang Palace, which palace didn't have hundreds of palace maids and eunuchs?
It was no exaggeration to say that.
Almost all the concubines who had participated in the division of the palace maids and eunuchs had a few people from the original Wangyi Palace.
Could it be…
If they were all like Autumn Bamboo…
For a moment, when they thought of the horror, the already extremely ugly expressions of the young masters and concubines present were filled with despair.
