Chapter 795: Liquidation
It’s just that there is no point in thinking about some things. Instead, Empress Dowager Mu looked at Chen Kaizhi meaningfully.
The Empress Dowager slowly sat down, and she immediately set her eyes on Cheng Yue.
Cheng Yue was already awakened. He watched all this in a daze, and vaguely heard that His Majesty died of illness. He heard again that Chen Wuji ascended the throne and Chen Kai ordered Prince Beijing. He felt that his eyes were dark and he wished he could faint again.
His future is worrying.
In the cabinet, he was the only one who had been with King Zhao, and now King Zhao... is over like this, which is really unexpected.
He never thought that King Zhao would be ruined. He always thought that so much support King Zhao would be ruined, but the fact is that it cannot be changed.
Cheng Yue was frightened and hurriedly bowed down: "The Empress Dowager Shengming, King Zhao's crime of death is really worth dying. Now, it is finally the source of the truth, and I have 10,000 comments..."
Cheng Yue did not want to be a loyal minister and martyr, but he knew very well that when the cleansing people shouted, it was nothing. After all, at most it would be dismissal, but it was involved in the case of King Zhao's rebellion. This was a disaster of family conspiracy and extermination. If he did not give in at this time, he would be really seeking death.
But at this moment, an eunuch came quickly outside and said, "Empress, Empress... The Jinyiwei took King Zhao... No, he took the rebel thief Chen Zhijing."
It was only a matter of time before Chen Zhijing was taken, but no one expected that it would be so fast that everyone cheered up.
The Empress Dowager narrowed his eyes: "It's very hard to hold the Jinyiwei so quickly." The Empress Dowager said, and looked at Chen Kaizhi's eyes and then said: "Please take Chen Zhijing up. Ai's family is very eager to see him."
The eunuch bowed and went out to pass the imperial edict, but Cheng Yue was so arrogant that he dared not give up. He just wished that Chen Zhijing would die immediately and never involve himself.
Otherwise he will be done with him.
After a cup of tea, Chen Zhijing was taken over with a scattered face.
Chen Zhijing's face was ashamed. He really didn't expect that things would reach this point. Just a few years ago, he was still full of energy and thought that he was the master of the Great Chen Dynasty, but now...
"Kneel down!" Someone shouted.
Chen Zhijing did not kneel down. He looked at the Empress Dowager with his head held high, looked at Empress Dowager Mu, and Chen Kaizhi and Chen Wuji, but he just bared his teeth and looked disdainful.
The Empress Dowager narrowed her eyes and stared at Chen Zhijing, and asked lightly: "Chen Zhijing, do you know your crime?"
"No sin!" Chen Zhijing replied.
The Empress Dowager did not look surprised. Her eyebrows raised slightly and smiled mockingly: "You led the troops to surround the palace city. Isn't this a crime?"
Chen Zhijing looked arrogant and arrogant.
"The world and the palace are originally my family, so what is the crime?"
He is very tough.
Chen Zhijing immediately sneered again: "However, in this palace, I don't know how many people steal my family business. Even if you are guilty, you will be unforgivable. This king is the son of Emperor Jing and the father of His Majesty. Chen Kaizhi and Chen Wuji are known to kill the monarch, and this is even more serious!"
"Nonsense." Yao Wenzhi stood up: "Your Majesty is born, sick and die!"
Chen Yishou pursed his lips, but did not speak.
Cheng Yue knew that King Zhao was finished and he had no chance to turn over. He couldn't help but change his mind. This was his chance to show his performance. Therefore, he said sternly: "Chen Zhijing, you are turning black and white. Your Majesty is clearly dying of illness. We are all serving the imperial bed, seeing with our own eyes and hearing with our own ears."
Chen Zhijing almost vomited blood.
It’s okay for Yao Wenzhi, this is Cheng Yue…
He was so angry that he trembled: "Now the success and the defeat of the enemy, if you lose, you lose. I only regret that I am rushing to rise up. Otherwise, in this hall today, you will be ghosts under the sword. What else can I say? It's just a death."
He then looked at the Empress Dowager in a silence: "My mother, I was your son, and I was born to you. The grace of my parents raised me should be rewarded. Oh... But the mother's desires are hard to fill, and what I want is really cold. I have been doing five hundred years. Even if you succeed today, look at the future, sooner or later you will not have good fruits!"
The Empress Dowager looked at him deeply and smiled.
This smile had neither kindness to his son nor anger at Chen Zhijing's "nonsense".
The Empress Dowager said lazily: "Have you said enough?"
"I didn't say enough." Chen Zhijing sneered repeatedly, his face became ferocious, and he shouted at the Empress Dowager: "I knew you were a poisonous snake, haha... No one in the world is more terrifying than my mother..." He suddenly looked at Chen Wuji and smiled grimly: "You think that if he asked you to continue to fight and support you as the emperor, you can rest assured. You think that she cares about your grandson, and you will die for her. Sooner or later, you will be abandoned by her like a abandoned son. Haha, just like the King of Ruyang back then, just like the King's son, you will be at her mercy. When you come to an end, you will be like this king and will not have a good end."
"Enough!" Cheng Yue hurriedly stood up and shouted sternly: "Chen Zhijing, you dog thief, have you said enough? Now, you still don't want to repent. You should slander the Holy Queen. You deserve to die!"
Chen Zhijing suddenly calmed down and looked at Cheng Yue, but said word by word: "Cheng Yue, but wasn't you, in front of me, denounced my mother as a bad wife, and was she a bitch?"
"I...I..." Cheng Yue was stunned and his legs trembled. His face was like a pig's liver. He finally squeezed out a few words from his mouth: "I...I don't...you don't want to swear." He looked at the Empress Dowager carefully, for fear that he would be implicated. He really had ten thousand Cao Nima floating past him. Can't King Zhao allow him to have a way out?
The Empress Dowager was not angry, but smiled: "Hey, people say that even tiger poison is not enough to eat, but... Chen Zhijing, you have a heinous crime, and you are full of evil, and you will not forgive me. If the Ai family and Your Majesty do not issue an order to kill you, the people in the Zhao Palace, how can you comfort the hearts of the world? Come on, take it, take it down, and get the Jinyiwei, and wait for the Ming Zhengdian punishment."
Several people wanted to drag Chen Zhijing down. Chen Zhijing laughed loudly, and tears came out of his eyes: "Kill, kill, sooner or later, sooner or later... Bah..." He spit out a mouthful of blood and phlegm from his mouth and fell to the ground.
"Also, Cheng Qing's family, go to the Jinyiwei together and accompany Chen Zhijing." The Empress Dowager said again.
When Cheng Yue heard this, he almost became soft.
He knew very well that his last effort had become a futile one. His family was going to hell with him. It was a mistake, every step he made. The corner of his mouth twitched. When he thought of the ending, he fell to the ground, like a pool of mud, dragged away by several guards.
The Empress Dowager then laughed: "Look, look, look at the son born to the Ai family, what he said to his mother. They are seeking death, so let's die, okay..." The Empress Dowager yawned and lazily said: "The Ai family is also exhausted. Mu, please accompany the Ai family to take a nap, you... also do your own business."
Chen Kaizhi just observed the confrontation between Chen Zhijing and the Empress Dowager. Chen Zhijing's performance did not seem to be surprised. When the Empress Dowager tacitly agreed to pull the emperor out of the palace, he ignored the life of the emperor's grandson. Although Chen Zhijing was a son, how could he not understand that he would not be forgiven no matter what.
Because of this, he cursed and showed great toughness.
But the Empress Dowager's indifference also shocked Chen Kaizhi. On the way, he couldn't help but glance at Chen Wuji. Chen Wuji was still smiling, as if he didn't think there was anything wrong with what happened just now.
Chen Kaizhi and Chen Wuji took a leave together. As soon as they left the hall, Chen Wuji wanted to pull Chen Kaizhi to have something to say, but then someone behind him said, "Your Highness, Your Highness..." However, Yao Wenzhi and others chased him out, bowed respectfully, and said to Chen Wuji: "Congratulations to Your Highness, congratulations to Your Highness, it is a great blessing for me to serve Your Highness. In a few days, I will take an auspicious day to ascend the throne. If you have something to report, I will advise you to advise you on the matter of the Ascension Ceremony."
Chen Wuji's lazy look was neither happy nor displeased, but he looked at Chen Kaizhi with a slightly cunning look. Chen Kaizhi smiled instead: "Then, I will say goodbye first."
He walked quickly without hesitation. He didn't know what was going on outside, so he left the palace. There were a few Jinyiwei waiting outside the palace. The leader was Wu Chenshi. When Wu Chenshi saw Chen Kaizhi coming out, he hurried forward and said, "The Chenghua Army and Di Ce Army have entered the capital."
Chen Kaizhi couldn't help but be surprised: "So fast?"
Although these two Jiedushi were not far from the capital, the rebellion was very hasty. Logically speaking, even the princes of these places would need time to make up their minds and finally send troops slowly: "Are they the King of Zhao?"
"No, these two Jiedushi came to support the palace. They came to quell the rebellion. I never expected that at first I thought it was the remnants of King Zhao, especially the Jiedushi Shi Jin, the governor of the Dice Army. He was originally from the Zhao palace and was promoted by King Zhao. Not long ago, I learned the news that when Shi Jin sent troops, King Zhao was still surrounded by the palace and had already sworn to attack King Zhao and brought troops all the way."
Chen Kaizhi frowned slightly, and the Empress Dowager really had a hand. She was extremely meticulous. No wonder she seemed so calm after learning of King Zhao's rebellion.
It turns out that I was prepared for it.
This made his heart sink again, and he felt that the Empress Dowager was mysterious and unpredictable.
But he was only silent for a moment, and then Chen Kaizhi spoke: "Since that's the case, as long as it is not a rebel, you don't have to pay attention. Can the capital be settled?"
