Your Majesty, please beg for mercy. The prince's rebellion was successful.

Chongde Hall!

It is still as magnificent as before, with red bricks, yellow walls, painted pillars and carved beams.

However, the atmosphere in the entire hall was extremely depressing.

All the civil and military officials in the court had solemn faces and serious expressions, and their eyes were glaring at Zhou Zheng, who was sitting at the top.

The dragon chair was empty, but a special seat was added next to it, and Zhou Zheng was sitting in it.

The prince held the emperor hostage and seriously injured his right arm.

Emperor Tianjing is now in critical condition and his life is hanging by a thread!

The news had spread to every corner of the palace, and everyone was surprised and shocked when they heard the news.

Then I received the news that all civil and military officials should go to court!

No one knows whether this order came from Emperor Tianjing or Zhou Zheng.

But they knew very well that this time might be the last battle between Emperor Tianjing and Zhou Zheng.

For a time, no matter what these civil servants and generals thought in their hearts, they still came after all.

But at the same time, the army was gathering in Kyoto, and the storm was about to come!

Sitting in his familiar position, Zhou Zheng did not look at the courtiers below, but instead focused his gaze directly on the two columns in the hall.

The two columns are connected by a carved dragon. The dragon's head sticks out of the eaves, and the dragon's tail goes straight into the palace. It is so majestic and adds a bit of imperial aura to the palace.

Finally, Zhou Zheng focused his gaze back.

He glanced around at the officials on both sides below.

However, many of these ministers were somewhat unfamiliar. They must have been re-promoted by Emperor Tianjing after he left the capital.

Of course, there are many faces familiar to Zhou Zheng here. These people were wavering at first, but it was Zhou Zheng who gave them a chance to survive. Unexpectedly, the situation changed and they once again turned to the arms of Emperor Tianjing.

However, these are not important anymore.

"Zhou Zheng, why don't you hand over your majesty!"

"How do you, a treasonous and treasonous person who kills kings and fathers, have the right to sit at the top!"

Finally, a minister stood up, raised his hand, and angrily scolded Zhou Zheng.

Once an official opened his mouth, other officials followed suit one after another without caring about anything else.

In their mouths, Zhou Zheng was simply an unfaithful and unfilial person, who ruined etiquette and music, corrupted the imperial court, and influenced the world. He was truly an unforgivable heinous person!

Zhou Zheng's face was full of disdain as he looked at the group of people below who kept saying they were benevolent and righteous.

They are just a group of people who are greedy for life and afraid of death.

"Want to see your Majesty!?"

"of course can."

But this time, Zhou Zheng did not refuse, but clapped his hands and agreed on the spot.

This change made everyone frown. This was not like the Zhou Zheng they remembered.

When the applause fell, Gan Mo was seen walking out of the screen with Emperor Tianjing.

At this time, Emperor Tianjing had managed to stop the wound on his right arm, but blood was still seeping out. His aura was extremely weak, his face was pale and bloodless, and his eyes were hollow and weak, as if he would die at any time.

"His Majesty!"

Seeing Emperor Tianjing reduced to this level, all the courtiers were shocked.

The ministers knelt down and cried bitterly.

This is the Lord of the Great Zhou Dynasty, their emperor.

How could he be subjected to such shame and humiliation! ?

The sound of crying filled the whole court, but Zhou Zheng not only showed no sympathy, but instead had a look of disgust and sneer on his face.

"You guys want to protect him?"

Zhou Zheng pointed at the weak Emperor Tianjing who was lying on the dragon chair, looked at the ministers below, and asked coldly.

"Your Majesty, you are a benevolent and righteous monarch, and the most sage monarch in our dynasty!"

"Zhou Zheng, you are such a rebellious and unruly person, you deserve death!"

Seeing Zhou Zheng still looking so calm and indifferent, the officials were furious and wished they could skin Zhou Zheng right now.

Zhou Zheng looked at them coldly, not affected at all.

"The King of Benevolence and Righteousness? The Sage King!?"

"It seems that you are quite good at deceiving yourself."

"I have to remind you of something."

Zhou Zheng shook his head, stood up suddenly, and spoke slowly.

"Twenty years ago, there was a woman named Xiao Qing who desperately helped him ascend to the throne and achieve the supreme glory. Then what did he do!?"

"Not only is he ungrateful, he also spent twenty years secretly dismantling the Zhenbei Army and replacing him with the Marquis of Zhenbei. He personally promised my mother and concubine that I would become the crown prince and inherit the great unification. But he did everything What?!"

Zhou Zheng's words resounded throughout the hall, deafening.

For a time, the still noisy ministers were suppressed.

"Of course, it's much more than that."

"In order to ascend to the throne, the king you call a benevolent and righteous king kills each other, killing each other, and even shows no mercy to the old and the young."

"In order to make yourself the emperor of the ages, how many innocent people died in their hands. Have you forgotten these?!"

Zhou Zheng hugged his chest with his hands, but his voice became deeper and deeper.

"The shadow has been with him for twenty years, protecting him, but in the end he became his pawn and was abandoned in Guigu Ridge."

"In order to get what he wanted, he didn't even hesitate and brought Gu Qianfan's head in exchange with me."

"In order to make me a person despised by everyone, he even paid the price with the life of Third Emperor Brother Zhou Qiao."

"Have you forgotten all of this?!"

"Or are you pretending to be deaf and dumb?!"

"Answer me!!!"

When it came to the emotional point, the veins on Zhou Zheng's face bulged, and his angry voice was like the crack of thunder. For a moment, all the officials fell into deathly silence.

At this time, Emperor Tianjing, who was sitting on the dragon throne, listened to Zhou Zheng detailing his crimes one by one. He was so anxious that he kept coughing.

But after all, he was too weak to speak.

"This is the King of Benevolence and Righteousness you call? The King of Saints?!"

"Have you ever thought about it?!"

"He can be so cruel to his wife, children, and the people around him who have been loyal to him for decades, but what will he do to you?"

Zhou Zheng's words were deafening.

For a moment, the ministers raised their heads with complicated eyes.

How could they not know the implication of Zhou Zheng’s words! ?

For a moment, the originally aggressive ministers felt a little unsure of themselves.

Seeing the hesitation on the faces of the ministers, Emperor Tianjing became more obviously flustered.

He tried to move and struggled, but he was too weak.

It has to be said that Emperor Tianjing is old and his body is no longer in its original peak condition.

He was old and seriously injured, with only one breath left.

In his life, what he cares about most is reputation.

He has made countless achievements throughout his life. He even lay dormant for twenty years just for the revolver in Xiao Qing's hand, in order to unify the Three Kingdoms and achieve unparalleled achievements.

What he wants is to be famous, what he wants is to have the merits of the Three Emperors and the Five Emperors, what he wants is to become the only emperor throughout the ages and the perfect emperor in history.

Become a perfect incarnation that is admired by the world and worshiped by future generations!

But now, Zhou Zheng has completely trampled the reputation he once pursued to the ground in front of the civil and military officials of the court!

This is simply more uncomfortable than killing him.
