After Zi Junyan left.

Shen Guang summoned his chef Liu Tai.

"Liu Tai, did Yan Yue ask you to poison me before she usurped the throne?"

Upon hearing this, the bloated Liu Tai was so frightened that he knelt down.

Liu Tai shouted, "My Lord, this is true, but I did not agree to it. I rejected it on the spot!"

Shen Guang walked over step by step, came to his side, and patted his shoulder: "I know this, so Yanyue had no choice but to poison him herself in the end."

Liu Tai finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But what Shen Guang said next made him feel the deathly silence around him.

"But you didn't report this to me, did you?"

A few drops of cold sweat seeped out of Liu Tai's face.

"I know what you're thinking. You don't dare to kill the king, nor do you dare to offend Yanyue, the future lord. Is that right?"

Liu Tai: "I am guilty, I am guilty."

"Do you think you are very smart by doing this?"

Liu Tai: "I...I..."

"Then do you know how Ren An, the commander of the Northern Army during the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, died?"

"It was because he was so clever that when the Witchcraft Rebellion broke out, he held military power but did not help either Crown Prince Liu Ju or Emperor Liu Che, thinking that he could stay out of it. Little did he know that this was the stupidest thing to do!"

"As a person promoted by the crown prince's uncle Wei Qing, it would be unrighteous for him not to help the crown prince; as a subject of the emperor, it would be disloyal for him not to help the emperor. So no matter who wins the battle between the emperor and the crown prince, he is a disloyal and unrighteous person."

"It was proven to be true. Afterwards, Emperor Wu of Han exterminated Ren An's entire clan and beheaded him in public. It was a very tragic death!"

Liu Tai was so frightened that he kowtowed frantically in front of Shen Guang: "My Lord, please spare my life, my Lord, please spare my life!"

Shen Guang: "Do you know why I didn't punish you before?"

Liu Tai shook his head numbly.

"Because I am confident that as long as I am alive, you will not do anything tricky, but the situation is different now. Yanyue may be about to take the throne, and I can't leave a fence-sitter like you by her side. You are a time bomb! But if Yanyue is the one to deal with you, the things that happened back then will inevitably be leaked out, which will make Yue'er's rule unstable."

Liu Tai had already understood the implication of Shen Guang's words and knew that he would not survive the day.

Shen Guang sat cross-legged in front of the willow platform.

"But don't worry. I'm not as cruel as Emperor Wu of Han. I won't exterminate your entire clan just because you're sitting on the fence. After you die, I'll send someone to take good care of your family. As long as you don't talk nonsense before you die, I promise they'll be fine."

Liu Tai kowtowed again: "Thank you, my lord."

Then Shen Guang stood up and ordered: "Come here, Liu Tai mixed nails into the dinner today, and almost hurt my body. He should be punished for treason, but considering that it was an unintentional mistake, he should be pushed out and sentenced to death with a white silk ribbon, and his family should not be implicated."

Several soldiers heard Shen Guang's shout, came in and dragged Liu Tai, who was disheartened and had a stiff expression, out.

On the other side, Yanyue returned to the third parallel universe and lingered at the gate of the palace for a long time. As relatives, Luo Feiyang and Bai Lang were different from Shen Guang.

Yanyue thinks it is natural for Shen Guang to take care of her, because in addition to blood ties, more importantly, he has always been training her as his heir since she was a child.

But Luo Feiyang and Bai Lang accompanied her through the three most frustrating years of her life. They did not leave her because she lost power, and their relationship was not mixed with any interests.

And now, she was going to kill them with her own hands?

Yanyue's heart, which had already made up its mind, began to waver again.

She stood in front of the door for a long time without the courage to knock.
