After what happened to the He family, Yun Zheng's trust in everyone around him also dropped sharply, and he began to doubt the loyalty of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty who he did not trust very much.Suffering from the fact that he couldn't kill all the ministers, and couldn't guarantee that his successor would be loyal to him after killing these batches, Yun Zheng held a banquet in the palace and invited the important ministers in the court, the elders of Yunling from the previous court.

Although everyone knew that what Yunzheng was preparing was a Hongmen Banquet, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and come to attend, just because of the sentence "the king's fate is hard to break".Yun Zheng repeatedly looked at these well-dressed courtiers, guessing what kind of ugliness and conspiracy were hidden under their elegant demeanor.The monarch and the ministers each had their own ulterior motives, but on the surface they exchanged cups and cups, peacefully, until Yun Zheng suddenly threw the glazed cup in his hand heavily on the ground.

Armed warriors suddenly came out from behind the curtain and surrounded the entire venue. Everyone was in danger for a while, wondering what Yun Zheng wanted to do?The warriors just surrounded the crowd and did not take any further action. Instead, they stood by and waited for further instructions from Yun Zheng.

"You don't need to panic." Yun Zheng smiled, but his blue eyes were frighteningly cold. "The reason why the widow made such an extraordinary move today is because I want the audience to tell the truth." As soon as Yun Zheng said this, there was a complete silence, and no one knew what the truth Yun Zheng wanted to hear .

Yun Zheng looked around at the trembling crowd, and his eyes fell on Shang Shulang Jiang Xun. "How about starting with Shang Shulang?" As soon as Yun Zheng finished speaking, everyone's eyes were on Shang Shulang.

"What the widow wants to know is why you are an official? As long as you tell the truth, you will be safe. If anyone wants to use some high-sounding excuses to prevaricate the widow... then don't do it." I blame you for being ruthless." After speaking, Yun Zheng's blue eyes fell on Shang Shulang again.

"Chen...Chen..." Shang Shulang was sweating profusely at the moment, not knowing how to answer in order to escape successfully.

"What? Is Shang Shulang trying to answer the widow with some kind of lie to satisfy the widow?" Yun Zheng smiled coldly and looked at the warrior who was on standby.

"I dare not..." Shang Shulang's legs and feet were already weak, and he fell to his knees on the ground. "The ten-year cold window is nothing more than to honor the ancestors and make the world famous..."

"Oh?" Yun Zheng smiled without answering, noncommittal. "It's not a shady idea to become famous and shine in the family. Let him go." Yun Zheng raised his hand slightly, signaling all the warriors to let Shang Shulang go.

"The next one might as well be General Zhonglang." Yun Zheng's calm and emotionless tone was heard by everyone, but it was like a call from a devil, which made people shudder.

"Although I can't be said to be an official for the sake of the common people, I also want to apply what I have learned so that I can live up to my parents' painstaking cultivation of my ministers, and I can be regarded as worthy of the poems and books I have read..." Zhong Lang will be awe-inspiring and upright, It was the same when speaking, but his generous speech was interrupted by Yun Zheng unceremoniously.

"Zhong Langjiang's remarks are grandiose, and he is not responsible for this, nor for that, but I don't know how the late emperor would feel if he knew about it?" Yun Zheng laughed out loud as if he felt that he had heard the funniest joke. Voice.

All the ministers here today were former ministers of Yunxuan, and Yun Zheng's words were particularly harsh to everyone's ears.Only Zhong Lang set this time to be doomed, but Yun Zheng, who didn't want to laugh enough, let out a long sigh and opened his mouth lightly. "I only hope that General Zhonglang will not forget what he said today, and I hope that while you are worthy of these many people, you can also be worthy of the widow." No longer speaking, Yun Zheng raised his hand to signal the warrior to let him go.

Having narrowly escaped death, Zhong Lang Jiang, who was still eloquent just now, collapsed on the ground, unable to stand up anymore.Yun Zheng was too lazy to see the ugly Zhonglang glance, his blue eyes fixed on the next target. "Teacher, I want to hear your opinion."

"Your Majesty... there is an old mother in the court, and there is a young child waiting to be fed. Being an official is just for that little salary." The grand master's eyes rolled slightly, and what he said was the simplest, but also the most difficult to find fault with. reason.

"Oh?" Yun Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly.Although he also knew that what the grand master said was not true, he couldn't find any reason to refute him for a while. "Since that's the case, I hope you will be worthy of the little salary you received in the future, Grand Master." Yun Zheng snorted coldly, although he was unhappy, he had to let it go.

Yun Zheng asked one after another like this, and got all kinds of reasons.The more he asked, the angrier he became, and the more he looked at these dignified ministers, the more displeased he was. Yun Zheng suddenly had an idea: "It's better to kill them all. If they are dead, they will never be able to betray me again, and only the dead can guarantee absolute freedom." loyalty."

Xiao Qin came back at just the right time.Having successfully completed the molting, he had just returned to the palace when he found Yunzheng's confidant servant waiting eagerly for someone in his residence.

"Master, are you finally back?" As if seeing a savior, the palace servant grabbed Xiao Qin's sleeve.

"What? Did something important happen in the palace?" Xiao Qin was suddenly a little confused by the attitude of the palace people.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." The palace man looked at Xiao Qin, hesitating to speak.

"What's wrong, Your Majesty?" Suddenly hearing someone mention Yun Zheng, Xiao Qin suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart.He didn't want to think about Yunzheng, but he couldn't stop caring about what happened to Yunzheng. The conflicted mood made Xiao Qin suddenly feel a little irritated.

"Your Majesty hosted a banquet for the ministers in the palace, but..." The palace man hesitated, wondering if he should speak too clearly.

"But so what?" The palace man's hesitant attitude made Xiao Qin even more irritated.

"It's still... I'd better ask the national teacher to go and see for yourself. Only you can persuade Your Majesty..." Since the palace man is Yun Zheng's confidant, he has already seen the relationship between Yun Zheng and Xiao Qin in his eyes.Knowing that although Yun Zheng can't be said to be obedient to Xiao Qin, he can be regarded as quite dependent, so he can only ask Xiao Qin to solve the chaotic situation in front of him.It's not entirely because of Yun Zheng, it's just because he knows in his heart that if his master collapses, there will be no good end for him.

Full of doubts, Xiao Qin finally arrived at the scene of the incident under the guidance of the palace servants.Casting a spell to hide his figure, Xiao Qin watched for a long time, and finally understood what Yun Zheng was up to.

"What a nonsense..." Thinking to himself, Xiao Qin suddenly appeared in front of the stunned crowd. "Your Majesty was drunk and surprised everyone." Xiao Qin saluted everyone slightly, and pulled Yun Zheng back. "Your Majesty, binge drinking hurts your health, why don't you follow me back to the palace to rest."

"Who said the widow is drunk?" Yun Zheng didn't intend to take advantage of the slope to get off the donkey, and raised his eyebrows and glared at Xiao Qin.He was annoyed that Xiao Qin didn't appear, but suddenly appeared in front of him at this moment, not only did not calm his anger, but made his anger a little bit more intense.
