Quickly wear: There are always those who are not afraid of death and want to torture me

Mo Qin's heart skipped a beat.Ignoring the pain and discomfort in my body, I immediately got up.

Accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. This saying has been the truth of serving the emperor since ancient times.

Last night, Cui Yuanjue was obviously drugged before taking the initiative to act against him. But now that he has woken up, Mo Qin has no way of knowing whether, as an emperor, he would feel it was shameful to have sex with an eunuch and choose to kill someone out of sight and out of mind.

The love and praise he received over the past few months did not bring him the slightest sense of security. On the contrary, last night Cui Yuanjue's crazy appearance of slashing around with a long sword to vent his anger was played repeatedly in his mind, reminding him of the worst outcome. .

Mo Qin knelt on the cold floor wearing only a middle coat, waiting for the emperor's verdict.

Cui Yuanjue said leisurely: "Mo Qin, do you want to continue serving me?"

Mo Qin said in a panicked voice: "It is the slave's duty to serve His Majesty well. If I can stay with you all the time, I will do my best to serve you."

The corner of the emperor's lips curled up slightly, "What I am talking about is not the same kind of service as what you are talking about. I just want to ask if you want to serve me like you did last night."

"Last night..." Mo Qin was stunned, and his ears turned red when he thought of that scene.

The system immediately complained in his mind: "Oh, he doesn't want you to be a cow or a horse in love, he wants you to be a duck!"

Mo Qin used a backhand to shield him from the unlucky Tongzi's ridicule.

He raised his head and looked at Cui Yuanjue in confusion: "Slave...I don't know what your Majesty means."

The man slowly approached, leaned down, stretched out his noble hand and pinched his chin.

Looking at each other, a pair of deep phoenix eyes seemed to be staring into an endless abyss, so deep and strange that it was difficult to distinguish between them.

"Mo Qin, do you know that this face is even more beautiful than a woman's?" He said, gently scratching Mo Qin's cheek with his fingers, "Follow me, and I will make you rich and powerful. Whatever you want, you can get."

The voice was low and dull, as if he was bewitching.But if you listen carefully, it is filled with the oppressive momentum of a superior person, which cannot be rejected at all.

The young man's pupils shrank, fear, resistance, disbelief...all kinds of emotions were mixed together, like a storm sweeping away the last glimmer of hope down there.

It seemed like a long, long time passed. Finally, Mo Qin spoke, his voice trembling slightly: "Slave...I will do whatever I can..."

The affairs of the Chao family have not changed.

The day after Concubine Chao's scheme failed, someone sent an anonymous letter to Dali Temple, denouncing the Chao family for thirty major crimes.

Everything else is fine, but two of them are attempts to rebel and assassinate the emperor, both of which are serious crimes against the Nine Clan.

Dali Temple did not dare to neglect and immediately asked Cui Yuanjue for instructions.

After reading the letter, the emperor was immediately furious and ordered a search of the court's home. No cracks in the house could be missed, brick by brick.

This also includes Chao Lin's coffin.Poor Chao Xiang was a powerful minister with one hand covering the sky before he was alive, but after his death, someone pried open the coffin board.

Most importantly, the search was not fruitless.Jin Yiwei not only discovered secret rooms and secret passages in the Chao family, but also the weapons and equipment strictly controlled by the capital.There are also several secret letters, the contents of which are full of outrageous and disrespectful remarks against the emperor.

The emperor was furious and issued an imperial edict to punish the nine clans of the Chao family.

The imperial concubine of the Chao family abandoned her position as concubine and was thrown into the cold palace.As for the second prince Cui Ling, there is evidence that he has known about his treasonous intentions towards his uncle's family for a long time but concealed it and was punished as a comrade.

The third prince, Cui Que, had already committed numerous debts, but his crimes were not worthy of death. He was assigned to guard the imperial mausoleum and could not return to the palace unless summoned.

The fall of the Chao family was even more tragic than the fall of the Qiu family nine years ago.

All the cliques and side branches were implicated, and even Chao Lin was pulled out and whipped to death in public.

Overnight, not even a single member of the once powerful Chao family was left.

The ruling party was also completely purged, and many powerful officials were relegated and exiled because of their association.

When the people in the capital heard about this, they who had no interest in political affairs clapped their hands and celebrated that the cancer that oppressed them was gone.

Others lamented: The Chao family fell and the second prince died. The one who benefited the most was the prince.Although I was at the border, I got such a huge advantage for nothing.It seems that there will be no surprises in the candidates who can ascend to high positions in the future.

----

On the day the Chao family was executed, it snowed heavily in the capital, and the thick snow covered the blood stains left on the ground during the day.

A figure in black robe walked through the palace wall and courtyard and quietly came to the cold palace where no one cared.

The man in black robe handed the guard guard a bag of silver and walked in without any hindrance.

He wandered through several courtyards and came to a side house.

Sitting inside was a woman in plain clothes and a white crown, as if she was attending a funeral for someone.

The inferior candles emitted black smoke, and the flickering light was weak and could only illuminate a few feet.

The old and disrepaired floor made a creaking sound, and the woman realized that someone had come in.

"Who are you! How dare you break into my bedroom! Believe it or not, I will kill you!" The woman raised a pair of rusty scissors towards the visitor and threatened with a ferocious expression.

"Oh, Chao Qinshu, you have been demoted to a commoner and you are still so arrogant. Who gave you the courage!" As he said this, the man in black robe took off his hood, revealing a handsome and healthy face.

"Cui Qiu!" Chao Qinshu was startled, then gritted his teeth and said, "It's you who framed me and framed the Chao family! You have done so many things that are harmful to nature, and you will never recover!"

Cui Qiu smiled slightly, with a sarcastic look on his handsome face.

"Hasn't the Chao family got enough blood on their hands?! Hasn't it done enough outrageous things? You have to wait until you are all doomed before you get to me in my turn."

Concubine Chao's eyes seemed to be quenched with poison, and she said bitterly: "It's all my fault that I misjudged the person and thought you were really as timid and cowardly as you appear. If I had known today, I should have killed you once and for all. !”

Cui Qiu snorted coldly: "It's a pity that my life is so hard. Five years of bullying in the palace can't destroy me, and those dirty and vicious methods can't take away my life!"

Concubine Chao: "Didn't I bully you several times when you were a child, and you hold such a grudge?! You must put me and the family to death!"

Cui Qiu's eyes were frighteningly bright, and the hatred he had suppressed for many years finally burst out at this moment: "Do you dare to say that this is all you did?! How did you treat my mother and concubine back then, how did you frame her for adultery, and let me My grandfather’s family was brutally destroyed. The Qiu family has been loyal for generations, but you were framed by your family for being a foreigner. Before your death, you were paraded through the streets and suffered all the humiliation! You have the nerve to ask me about such deep hatred!"

The strange thing is that after hearing his accusation, Concubine Chao was stunned for a long time.The expression on his face changed several times, and finally he burst into laughter: "Hahahahahaha! Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, you are so pitiful, you have even found the wrong person for revenge!"

"The one who framed the Qiu family and plotted against your mother and concubine was not this palace and the imperial family, but the prince you once took refuge in!"
