Royal study.

"Your Majesty, I heard that...the one from Jingxin Garden...has passed away, and his death is quite horrifying."

Emperor Xuanhui put down the scroll in his hand, sighed, leaned weakly on the back of the chair, and after a long silence, said: "How could the ninth brother let her go, people... should pay the price for what they have done, the queen mother... that's the end of her fate."

Li Zhong replied: "It's only the Queen Mother who... didn't think clearly, but if she can treat you half as well as King Su, how can she end up in this situation."

Li Zhong seemed to have caught Emperor Xuanhui's mind. He didn't say anything for a long time, but coughed twice, "She didn't want to enter the palace, and she was reluctant to give birth to my father with the emperor.How can a hoped-for existence really treat me well, now... can be regarded as her final destination."

"By the way, His Highness King Su...how do you plan to deal with it?" Li Zhong turned the topic aside.

Emperor Xuanhui's eyes looked into the distance through the window, "He...will naturally be taken care of, and the future...I don't have to worry about it."

Since Cao Taiwei and Empress Dowager died one after another, Emperor Xuanhui changed his previous method of governing the country with Huairou, dismissed and investigated all the remaining parties and relevant courtiers in the court, and reorganized the court.Get strong stability.

After Emperor Xuanhui gave the order, King Su Shen Qi had long since disappeared.

In the dark cell, bursts of laughter came out, and after a while, the sound stopped abruptly.

Just because a man in black came in.

The person huddled in the corner struggled to climb to his feet, raised his pale face and asked, "Where is His Royal Highness King Su? Where are others?"

Jin Zhao stood motionless on the spot, looked down at the man, and said, "What? Are you expecting him to save you?"

"He promised me... he would take me with him!" the man almost screamed.

"Didn't you already think of it just now? He is already in danger, so how can he take care of you." Jin Zhao said mockingly.

"What's up with him?"

"Meng Fanzhi, you are really ridiculous. You have been used as a gunman from the beginning to the end, but you don't know it. Now you still think of others to save you. It's just pathetic."

Meng Fanzhi was silent for a long time, like an eggplant beaten by frost, "He wouldn't...do that to me..."

"Meng Fanzhi, your mistake is that you should not be too obsessed with some things, and... you have been following the wrong person. His Highness King Su is all about his own ambition, so he doesn't care about your life."

Meng Fanzhi stood up abruptly, and pushed him angrily, "Impossible! When our Meng family was destroyed, I survived by luck. He... saved me and sent me to learn art. He has been treating me for so many years."Take care, don't talk nonsense!"

Jin Zhao sneered and said, "Really? Do you think... do you believe this? If that's the case, why didn't he take care of you after he sent you in?"

"Did he promise you that he would avenge you?"

"Besides you...he also raised a lot of loyal subordinates, do you think...you are the only one?"

"Meng Fanzhi, I always thought you were smart enough, but I didn't expect... In the end, you are also a person blinded by other people's hypocrisy. It's really pitiful."

Jin Zhao's words were like ripping open his flesh, crushing him in one fell swoop.

"You never thought about... why he saved you, whether he knew about your family's affairs early in the morning, and... has been fueling your hatred, making your hatred grow day by day."

Meng Fanzhi's face suddenly lost color, "He...knows that my father was helping Concubine Yun escape, and was finally discovered by the emperor...he stole all the family, he..."

"Meng Fanzhi, you are wrong. It is not because of this that your Meng family ransacked all over the house." Jin Zhao interrupted him in a timely manner.

Meng Fanzhi looked up at him slowly and said, "What...what do you mean?"

"You are so naive. You can believe whatever he says. It's as if you were deceived by him."

"Your father ... colluded with the traitors back then. He knew that he might not be able to make it through, so he wanted to escape with Concubine Yun Gui, whom he had always liked, but he didn't expect to be intercepted by the imperial army on the way. This matter has already been exposed, and there is no way to cover it up.The first emperor had no choice but to deal with it impartially, I don’t know what King Su told you, but...the blame must be placed on the first emperor and Concubine Yun, the purpose is to fuel your hatred and let you eradicate him.”

Afterwards, he asked someone to investigate Meng Fanzhi's affairs carefully, only to find out... the secret matter was covered up by the former emperor, and Meng Fanzhi also changed his name, so it took a long time to find out.

"No...it's impossible!" Meng Fanzhi thought carefully for a while, and found...everything was exactly in line with what he said, but...he refused to believe it anyway.

King Su is very gentle and easy-going towards him, could it be...are these all illusions?

Jin Zhao said in a calm tone: "Believe it or not, I came this time... just not wanting to make you die so ignorantly. It is even more wrong to pin your hatred on King Li. How stupid it is to trust King Su so blindly.the behavior of."

"Come here, bring the things up."

After finishing speaking, he ordered.

Afterwards, the guard came up with a rope and tied it to the beam for him.

"Meng Fanzhi, let's go."

He didn't want to kill people, but...he couldn't let go of a person who threatened Shen Li's safety, and besides...this person almost killed him.

Meng Fanzhi didn't say anything else, just supported the wall with his palms, and walked slowly under the hemp rope.

He no longer had the strength to stand on the stool again. Seeing this, the guard helped him up, and after a while, he kicked the stool over.

Meng Fanzhi's neck was hung on the hemp rope, and after struggling for a long time, his last breath was finally cut off.

Jin Zhao stood where he was, with no expression on his face, but his eyes were tightly closed for a moment, then opened again, and then he exited the cell.

After exiting the cell, he coughed uncontrollably. He clutched his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood uncontrollably.

"General Cui! What's wrong with you?" Seeing this, the guard rushed over and tried to help him, asking worriedly.

Jin Zhao waved his hand at him, then casually wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, and said in an impermanent tone: "It's nothing, it's just the wind and cold."

The guard withdrew his hand suspiciously, but still looked at his back with some concern.

He... This is not the first time he vomited blood. Since the injury, his body has become more and more weak. He doesn't know the reason, and there is no prompt in the system. He just feels empty in his chest and can't breathe sometimes.Then he vomited blood as usual.

Recently, I only saw Shen Li once in a while, and I was afraid that he would be worried when he saw himself like this.

He had already predicted his final result, and the task was about to be completed, and by then... where he would go was another unknown.

So before that...he had to clear all the obstacles around him (Li). Only when he was well could he rest assured...to face the unknown future.
