Ninghe hall.

Shang et al knelt in front of Tan Muqiu, and said, "Your Majesty deserves to die."

"Forgive me for what crime?" Tan Muqiu got up and stood in front of Shang et al. He frowned and said, "Where is General Zhao? Where are you now?"

Upon hearing the words, Shang Waited hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, please be at ease and don't be impatient, General Zhao...General Zhao..."

At this time, the palace door was suddenly pushed open, and Zhao Qingming walked in.

Seeing this, Shangwai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Zhao Qingming said to Shangwai who was kneeling on the ground: "Go out and wait."

Shang waited to hear the words as if he had been pardoned, but before getting up, he subconsciously went to see Tan Muqiu, and when he saw that the other party had no words, he said aloud and left the Ninghe Hall.

After Shang waited out, Zhao Qingming said, "Are you awake? It's cold on the ground, put on your shoes first."

Tan Muqiu was silent for a moment, walked to the side of the couch, sat down and put on his shoes silently.

"What does this mean?" Tan Muqiu asked while sitting on the couch and looking up at Zhao Qingming.

"Lidong and Rong An... and the servants who are serving you, I have dealt with them. I have personally led these guards outside, so they are trustworthy. Waiting for you to know them too..."

"General Zhao, are you going to force the palace or usurp the throne?" Tan Muqiu said coldly.

Zhao Qingming was taken aback when he heard the words, and met Tan Muqiu's gaze, seeing that the other party's eyes were full of doubt and guard, his face darkened, and then he knelt down on one knee.

Qin Muqiu didn't expect the other party to kneel down and was startled.

"It's me...the minister didn't think carefully, and made up his own mind." Zhao Qingming said.

"Zhao Qingming." Qin Muqiu got up and walked over to lean over and took the other's arm, saying, "I'm not your majesty, what are you doing?" Seeing that the other party couldn't get up, he simply knelt down and faced the other party, saying : "I'm just asking about your current situation. I'm not qualified to punish you. If you don't deal with me, I will thank you. I can't blame you for not thinking carefully."

Zhao Qingming's complexion became darker when he heard the words, and he lowered his eyes and said: "If you want to be my majesty, you are. If you want to punish me for offending me, I will let you punish me. If you are not satisfied, I will make my own opinion." , I will discuss it with you in the future."

Tan Muqiu didn't know what to say when he heard the words. He only felt that when he faced Zhao Qingming, he was always reasonable and became unreasonable.The opponent always doesn't follow the routine to make moves, no matter how ruthless the move is, it can be easily invisible when it comes to the opponent.

After a long time, Tan Muqiu sighed, and said, "Don't kneel down, it's cold on the ground." Qin Muqiu got up and pulled Zhao Qingming, who immediately stood up. He continued, "Is it because of the poisoning?"

Zhao Qingming nodded, and said, "You haven't made a move for so long, so I have no choice but to make my own claims."

Tan Muqiu looked at Zhao Qingming in front of him, feeling an inexplicable emotion for a moment.He vaguely felt that the other party was angry, but he didn't know where the anger came from.He suddenly realized that Zhao Qingming was not a gentle and harmless young man, but he had always been used to being undefended in front of the other party, and he had forgotten that the other party was also a general who held the power of life and death.

"I'm a bit indecisive." Tan Muqiu said, "You...killed them?"

"It's still useful to keep them now." Zhao Qingming's eyes flashed a murderous intent, and he said, "Lidong and the Ninth Prince's Mansion have always been in contact, and you must know the friendship between the Ninth Prince and King Ning'an."

Tan Muqiu was taken aback for a moment, and then he understood.

The Nine Kings are disabled, so they have always lived in Zhongdu and never became a vassal.

Li Jin and Jiu Wang have a deep relationship, and Tan Muqiu knows something about it.

"Did Lidong poison me, was it ordered by King Ning'an?" Tan Muqiu asked.

Zhao Qingming frowned slightly, and said, "Whether it's true or not, you shouldn't keep this person anymore."

"Where is Rong An?" Tan Muqiu said, "Is he also the nail that King Ning An buried in the palace?"

"Rong An..." Zhao Qingming hesitated for a moment, looked at Tan Muqiu with a look of guilt, and said, "Rong An is... the nail my father buried in the palace."

Qin Muqiu was in disbelief when he heard the words, and then forced a smile, and said, "It's not a treasonous thing for Master Zhao to bury his eyeliner in the palace, and he won't kill me if he influences him."

"Mu Qiu..." Zhao Qingming said, "I'm sorry for you."

Tan Muqiu's heart froze when he heard the words, he couldn't help but panic, and said, "You..."

Zhao Qingming looked at him and said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen to you with me here."

"What can I do?" Tan Muqiu said, "He's your father, and I'm not the real Li Yu. If there is no grievance or enmity, he will never kill me with a knife."

Zhao Qingming's face darkened when he heard the words, and he didn't speak.Tan Muqiu stared at the other party for a while, and said, "Could it be...it wasn't Lidong who poisoned him, but Rong An?"

Zhao Qingming looked at the other party and nodded.

"Impossible." Tan Muqiu said, "Why did Marquis Zhao kill me... Li Yu?"

"Your Majesty, General Zhao, someone brought it here." Shang Waiting's voice came from outside the hall.

Tan Muqiu was taken aback when he heard the words, and couldn't help but look at Zhao Qingming, who said, "Let him in."

It should be true, a moment later a person pushed the door and entered, but that person was Wuyun.

"Master Wuyun?" Seeing Wuyun, Tan Muqiu couldn't help walking forward, but Zhao Qingming took his arm and said in a low voice, "Sit down and rest for a while."

Tan Muqiu glanced at the other party, then walked to the side of the couch and sat down.

After Wuyun saluted Tan Muqiu, he stood in the hall with his usual expression.On the contrary, Zhao Qingming's serious face made Tan Muqiu feel nervous.

"Don't look at me like a prisoner, I'm afraid I won't be able to help it." Wuyun said.

"What I'm afraid of is that you won't recruit." Zhao Qingming said.

Wuyun smiled wryly and said, "In front of His Majesty, don't make such jokes."

"I wasn't in the mood to joke with you at first." Zhao Qingming said to Wuyun, "You can talk about that now."

Qin Muqiu looked at the two in puzzlement when he heard the words, and vaguely felt that what Wuyun was going to say was not an easy matter.Could it be that the poison in his body...can't be cured?That means that he has only a dead end, thinking of this, Tan Muqiu couldn't help but look a little more solemn.After all, this is a matter of his life and death.

Wuyun took a deep breath, and said to Tan Muqiu: "The poor monk was originally a Taoist priest, and he came from the same sect as Yanji. Presumably His Majesty must be very curious, why a Taoist priest has now become a monk."

Qin Muqiu: "..."

"Because of your nature, you are always up and down." Zhao Qingming said coldly.

Wuyun raised his eyebrows, and continued: "More than 20 years ago, the late emperor once befriended a Taoist priest, and that Taoist priest was the poor monk's master."

Tan Muqiu was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, wondering if this has anything to do with the poison he was poisoned by?The Taoist, the late emperor, Qin Muqiu suddenly thought of some crucial question, and hurriedly said, "A single bloodline is not worth a thousand miles of rivers and mountains. The person who gave the late emperor bad advice was your master?"

Wuyun nodded, sighed, and continued: "My master said that the Qin family has the image of an emperor, and a son of heaven will be born. But if the son of a non-royal family, a son of heaven, apart from usurping the throne, it means changing the dynasty. My master once thought that this would be a big For the rest of the calamity, I never thought that there would be something about the late emperor.”

"You mean, your master's advice to the late emperor was wrong?" Tan Muqiu asked.

"My master said it was God's will. It not only relieved the late emperor's troubles, but also responded to my master's divination." Wuyun said: "However, your father suddenly regretted it after you were born, and he was reluctant to send you into the palace. This is inconsistent with the hexagram."

Tan Muqiu suddenly felt a little sad when he thought of Tan Heng.Although the other party kept this matter from him all the time, if it wasn't for the other party's reluctance at the time, he would have been the one who was sent to the palace.

Zhao Qingming turned his head and looked at Tan Muqiu for a long while, as if he had guessed his thoughts, his eyes were full of comfort.

Wuyun continued: "My master was afraid that this matter would change in the future, so he sent me and senior brother Yanji to your two sides before he died, in case there is a situation that cannot be closed in the future."

"Can you handle the current situation?" Zhao Qingming asked.

Wuyun: "..."

"Yanji stayed in the Changning Army because of me?" Tan Muqiu said.

Wu Yun nodded and said: "It doesn't matter whether we are here or not. Everything has its own way, and it is beyond the control of human power. However, Master's hexagram is correct. His Majesty is indeed the eldest son of Qin Heng." After finishing speaking, he looked at Tan Muqiu, his eyes were full of piety.

Tan Muqiu sat on the couch, his eyes a little lost.In just a few days, the truth that had been hidden for more than 20 years was spread out in front of him, which caught him off guard.

The saddest thing for him was that both Tan Heng and Li Yu were no longer alive, even if he knew everything, it would not help.

"Can the poor monk go back to Wanli Temple?" Wuyun asked.

Tan Muqiu came back to his senses, and subconsciously looked at Zhao Qingming.The other party suddenly said, "Wait."

"The subordinate is here." Shangwai replied outside the door.

"Take him down, watch it." Zhao Qingming said.

Wuyun stared at Zhao Qingming with wide eyes upon hearing this, with an expression of disbelief.Tan Muqiu on the side also looked puzzled, but Zhao Qingming obviously didn't want to explain to Wuyun.

"Wait... Zhao Qingming, you can't kill a donkey." Wuyun struggled.

"Master Wuyun, this is the end of the matter, it's better to maintain the ease of a monk, don't struggle." Shang waited holding a saber in one hand, standing behind Wuyun, with a posture ready to be violent at any time.

"The poor monk was originally a Taoist priest..." Wuyun said as he got up and walked out of the hall.

"Taoists are also monks." Shang et al whispered after him.

Shang waited to take away Wuyun, and there were only two of them left in the hall.

Tan Muqiu looked at Zhao Qingming, feeling very complicated.He knew that the other party must have a reason for doing these things.Presumably what the other party wants to say next is the key point.
