Changsheng: I have been in Jiaofang Division for thousands of years

As a confidant, He Minzhong is extremely loyal to the prince.

No matter how tortured by Xuan Jingsi, He Minzhong still refused to disclose any news about the prince and queen.

However, Xuan Jing Division's interrogation methods are not limited to torture.

Seeing that torture was useless, Xuan Jingsi gave He Minzhong Huanxin San.

In the end, taking advantage of He Minzhong's unconsciousness, Xuan Jingsi tried out many secrets of the prince and queen from his mouth, including the inhumane things about the prince.

This time, it can be regarded as piercing the sky.

When Secretary Xuan Jing reported the results of the interrogation, Emperor Xin Chu was furious.

Emperors are a group of people who are full of lies.

But they are extremely disgusted that they are deceived by others.

What's more, the one who cheated him this time was the queen who had been husband and wife for decades.

And the matter of deception is also related to the continuation of his heirs.

So soon, the queen was deprived of the right to command the harem by the new Emperor Chu, and placed under house arrest in the bedroom.

The reason announced to the outside world is that the empress interferes in the government, which violates the ancestral system.

After all, the real reason can never be made public.

Harem.

The old new Emperor Chu waved back and walked into the queen's bedroom alone, and saw the queen sitting alone in front of the window.

"You came?"

The queen didn't mean to stand up and salute at all, and asked without looking back.

"why?"

The new Emperor Chu's face was gloomy: "Why didn't the prince tell me about the inhumane things?"

"What are you telling me? Do you want you to deprive my son of his dignity?" The queen finally turned around and said with a sneer.

"you……"

The new Emperor Chu was so angry that his chest heaved violently: "I have deep affection for you, why do you treat me like this?"

"Hahaha, what a loving person."

The queen laughed mockingly: "How can the emperor have any friendship? Just like when you rescued me from the Jiaofang Division, is it really because you couldn't get along with my childhood sweetheart?"

"Aren't you using my physique to prolong my life? Since you got what you want, shouldn't you pay the price?"

"You and I gave birth to three sons, two died young, and the last one was inhumane. This is the sin of the two of us."

"The human race has its own lifespan. The two of us have not set foot on the immortal road, but we are trying to spy on longevity. This is God punishing us, don't you understand?"

The more the queen spoke, the angrier she became, and she stood up abruptly.

Suddenly thick green feathers grew on her body, and she turned into a monster in the blink of an eye.

The new Emperor Chu was dumbfounded, and exclaimed in shock: "You...how could you be like this?"

Chapter 42 Seven Years Later

The queen's sudden change really scared the new Emperor Chu.

It never occurred to him that the queen he had slept with for decades would turn into a monster.

"why?"

The queen exuded a terrifying aura all over her body: "Because I am old and can no longer bear the erosion of the evil spirit, so I was backlashed into this appearance."

She approached the new Emperor Chu step by step, forcing the latter to thump and sit on the ground.

And when he was less than two steps away from the new Emperor Chu, the feathers on the queen's body suddenly faded quickly, and she returned to her original appearance.

"Unfortunately, decades of sharing the same bed has connected us to each other. Whenever I want to kill you, the evil spirit in my body will rebel, so that I can't kill you, otherwise you will die long ago." gone."

"You want to kill me?"

"Yes, I have tried to kill you more than once over the years, but unfortunately, I can't!"

The queen's eyes were red, like a demon who would choose someone to devour.

She stepped back step by step, and finally sat back in front of the window.

"Let's go. Since you know all my secrets, you don't have to pretend to be a loving couple anymore. Go back and be your emperor."

The new Emperor Chu was silent.

At this moment, he seemed to be decades old, and he looked very decadent.

He propped himself up on the table and stood up with difficulty. He took a last look at the queen, and walked out tremblingly without saying anything.

After this day, the new Emperor Chu, who used to be diligent in political affairs, suddenly seemed to be a different person.

Every day, he was in a state of desperation, staying in his bedroom in a daze, and did not go to court for three consecutive months.

And the new Emperor Chu's body was also weakening day by day visible to the naked eye.

The imperial doctor in the palace tried every means to treat her, but unfortunately there was no result.

Three months later.

The new Emperor Chu finally died completely. Before he died, he ordered someone to call the queen and prince.

"Everyone get down!"

The new Emperor Chu Qiruoyousi's order.

Many eunuchs and maids immediately retreated outside to wait for orders.

"I can't do it."

The new Emperor Chu smiled wryly: "Queen, no matter what we were like in the past, I only hope that after I leave, you can help the prince secure the throne."

"Don't worry, the crown prince is the son of this palace, and this palace will naturally help him ascend the throne smoothly."

The queen said with a blank face.

"That's good."

The new Emperor Chu took a few breaths, and said with difficulty: "The prince's inhumane things will never be known to others."

"After I die, you will go to the offspring of the royal family, secretly adopt a baby boy into the palace, and declare to the outside world that it is the birth of the crown princess, so that you can inherit the throne in the future."

He turned his head slowly and looked at the prince: "My lord, I know your character. After you ascend the throne, remember to be diligent in political affairs, and never delay state affairs because you are obsessed with having fun."

"You have to understand that this world does not belong to anyone forever. Only by diligently governing and loving the people can you secure the throne, otherwise, one day you will be replaced by others, understand?"

"Yes, the child understands."

The prince looked sad, and wondered if he really remembered his father's last words?

"I hope you really understand."

The breath of the new Emperor Chu became weaker and weaker.

He forced himself to take one last look at the queen and the prince, and finally closed his eyes slowly.

A generation of Mingjun, the new Emperor Chu praised by the world, finally took his last breath.

Before he died, the new Emperor Chu left an imperial decree that his funeral should be halved, and he must not waste money and people.

Therefore, the subsequent national funeral was much simpler than the previous emperor's funeral, and the cost was less than [-]% of the previous one.

After the national mourning, the prince officially ascended the throne as emperor, with the year name Mingyuan.

The queen was honored as the queen mother, and the crown princess Yuwen Piaoxu was established as the new queen.

However, Yuwen Piaoxu, the empress, has no rights, and the empress dowager is still in charge of the power in the harem.

Not long after Emperor Mingyuan ascended the throne, the queen mother announced that the queen Yuwen Piaoxu was pregnant.

At the same time, the Empress Dowager also dispatched people to start looking for babies suitable for adoption among the offshoots of the royal family.

ten months later.

Far away in Qingzhou, a fire broke out in the Prince's Mansion of Nanshan County, and the whole family of the Prince of Nanshan County was burned to death, even the newborn grandson was no exception.

At the same time, the eldest son of Emperor Ming Yuan was born, and the whole world celebrated together.

However, the Queen Mother announced to the outside world that Queen Yuwen Piaoxu needed to rest all year round because of the injury to her body after giving birth.

So he took the eldest son of the emperor to his side and began to raise him himself since then.

Yuwen Piaoxu didn't have any objection to this, after all, it wasn't her child in the first place.

As for the power of the harem, Yuwen Piaoxu has no interest, and is even less bothered to pay attention to external disputes.

She stays in her bedroom every day, rarely goes out, and rarely sees people.

Only Zhou Yue often went to the palace to chat with her or teach her martial arts.

Yuwen Piaoxu is already able to cultivate, and surprisingly, her cultivation talent is even better than Zhou Yue's.

So even though the best age for enlightenment has passed, Yuwen Piaoxu's cultivation progress is still amazingly fast.

Seven years passed in such a flash.

In the seventh year of Ming Yuan, Zhao Mu was 32 years old.

This is already the tenth year since his rejuvenation.

Seven years.

Zhao Mu's true qi cultivation was steadily increasing, while the growth rate of his physical strength far exceeded his true qi cultivation.

This is the change brought about by the fourth gate of life in "Six Paths of Heaven".

Zhao Mu even had a feeling that his current physical strength was probably close to that of a Martial Saint, very powerful.

In the past seven years, the court has also undergone tremendous changes.

The late new Emperor Chu, regardless of his personal affairs, was a truly wise emperor in his official affairs.

During his decades in power, he has always been diligent in government affairs and devoted himself to the affairs of state.

Under the governance of the new Emperor Chu, the national power of the Great Jin Dynasty was flourishing, and the martial arts became more and more prosperous.

If it were an ordinary emperor, when the national power grows stronger, he will definitely resort to militarism and frequently launch wars abroad, and he will not care about wasting people and money at all.

But the new Emperor Chu did not.

During his reign, he only launched a war against Beimang, and he attacked with absolute advantage.

But for the Great Golden Wheel Kingdom in the west and the Five Poison Sect in southern Xinjiang, they implemented a friendly policy.

Therefore, after a war, the people of the Jin Dynasty were not greatly affected, and they always lived in prosperity and peace.

But Emperor Ming Yuan was completely different from his father.

I don't know if it's because of inhumanity, so that the mind is distorted?

Emperor Ming and Yuan were very happy and extravagant.

Not long after he took the throne, he ordered to send a large army to fight against the Great Golden Wheel Kingdom and the Southern Border Five Poison Sect at the same time.

Emperor Ming Yuan declared that he wanted to fulfill the will of his ancestors to expand the territory and establish an unprecedentedly large country.

Not only that, but Emperor Ming Yuan was also building large-scale construction projects in various parts of the country while he was at war.

He spent a lot of money and manpower to open up the Grand Canal, trying to connect the north and south water transport.

At the same time, he also started to build a mausoleum for himself early.

Because he thought that his future achievements would far exceed those of his ancestors, he wanted to build a luxurious cemetery for himself, which was unprecedented.

In addition, Emperor Ming Yuan also liked to tour the world.

In the seven years since he took the throne, he has traveled south six times.

It is said to understand people's sentiments, but in fact it is to indulge in fun. The cost of each parade is astronomical, which is a waste of money and people.
