There was silence in Kunning Palace, Su Shi rubbed the center of her brows, her eyes became determined.

People go to high places, water flows to low places, everything is not controlled by people.

On May 30th, the Queen's birthday, the Longevity Banquet was held as scheduled, and the whole country celebrated together.

Civil and military officials, important ministers and their families filled the hall.

Qin Chu was not qualified to take a seat, and was only responsible for serving drinks. She specially ordered the pot to serve Qiu Jinning's table. Every pot of wine and every cup of tea had to go through the hands of the little maid, so there must be no problems.

The second prince's smile made her uneasy, especially for Qiu Jinning, who was a phoenix girl, for fear that something might go wrong again.

Halfway through the Wanshou Banquet, the queen Su suddenly felt unwell and returned to Kunning Palace early.

The queen asked Mr. Hu to go to the imperial doctor to have a look. After a while, Hu Da approached the queen and whispered: "Your Majesty, the queen has been poisoned. The imperial doctor said that there is no cure. You should go and have a look."

The Queen's expression changed, she even forgot to put down the empty wine glass in her hand, and left the Longevity Banquet in a hurry.

Inside the Kunning Palace, there were almost no maids, only a few eunuchs guarding it, and a few guards standing at the gate of the palace.

The male empress Su lay on the beauty couch, watched the queen approach, and showed a weak smile: "Your Majesty, you are here."

The empress stared deeply at Su Shi who was lying on the bed, as if she hadn't seen her for many years, with a sense of strangeness.

She put the empty wine glass in her sleeve, and sat on the couch: "Hu Da said you are not well, I think you look good, where is the imperial doctor? Send the imperial doctor."

No one in the hall responded, even Hu Da stood still.

Su raised her eyebrows and looked at her: "Your Majesty, I still remember the first time I saw you more than 20 years ago, you were graceful and luxurious, and you were the most honorable Majesty in the Baiyue Dynasty."

The queen watched him silently.

"But Her Majesty, the most honorable Empress of the Baiyue Dynasty, belongs to the world, belongs to the beauties of the harem, and does not belong to me. Your Majesty, if there is an afterlife, we can be an ordinary couple." Su Shi held the Queen's hand, her eyes were gentle."Your Majesty, hug me one more time."

Let him hug His Majesty again.

The queen was slightly moved, and slowly leaned over, and the two embraced tightly.

The next moment, the empress suddenly turned sideways, staring at Su Shi with her wide eyes open, bleeding from her abdomen.

She opened her mouth, and a dazzling bright red overflowed from the corner of her mouth.

"Why?"

Su Shi sat up and swept away the weak state just now: "Your Majesty, you pass the throne to our son, pass the throne to the second child, you are the Supreme Emperor, why don't you always accompany me in the harem."

The queen clenched the wine glass in her sleeve tightly, gritted her teeth and said, "Is it you who want to kill me, or the second child who wants to kill me?"

Su's lips moved, but she didn't speak.

At this time, a person came out from behind the screen.

"Emperor Mother, you are old, it's time to abdicate for the virtuous, the imperial edict has been written, where is the jade seal." The second prince came out from behind the screen with a smile on his face.

In his hand is the Minghuang imperial edict, which was given to him by Chief Hu.

The empress fixedly looked at her once most valued son, and clenched the wine glass in her sleeve even tighter: "Second brother, if I hand over the jade seal, will I really survive to be the overlord?"

The second prince said quietly: "Of course the mother can survive, after all, you are passed down alive to be in the position of the ministers, so you can convince the ministers, right?"

As for after he succeeded to the throne, it is not the same.

The queen stared at him, stared at the flash of murderous intent in his eyes, and closed her eyes heavily: "Is the throne really that important, so that you don't hesitate to kill your mother to rebel."

The second prince snorted coldly: "It's not important? It's not important, but you are in my position. What are you doing holding on to the throne? Ah? Mother, why don't you talk about it?"

He drew out a long sword and pointed it straight at the queen's face, madness flashed in his eyes.

"Emperor, you said you wouldn't kill your empress." Su's heart stopped, and she hurriedly got up to stand in front of the empress.

He suddenly regretted it, after seeing the madness and murderous intent in his son's eyes.

"Father, get out of the way, let her hand over the jade seal first." The sword tip in the second prince's hand touched Su Shi's chest, as if he could meet the gods and kill the gods, and no one could stop him.

Su's hands trembled slightly, she looked back at the queen, and silently moved away.

It also took away the last warmth in the queen's heart.

At this moment, the empress suddenly burst out into a wry smile, and threw the wine glass in her hand vigorously, and it fell to the ground with a crisp shattering sound.

The second prince was startled, and in the next instant, countless gold-armored guards rushed into Kunning Palace and surrounded them.

Impossible, he has clearly arranged for the commander of the imperial army, and obviously no one will find out.

Manager Hu even fainted from fright, and said in his heart, it's over, it's over, it's over.

"Bitch, you plot against me." The second prince reacted, his eyes were scarlet, and he looked at the queen.

The long sword in his hand was sent out like that, and before he could stab the queen, he was swung away by the imperial army and stopped him in time.

The queen was supported to stand up, glanced at the crazy second prince, then looked at the distraught Su family, and said coldly: "Everyone in Kunning Palace, kill them on the spot."

As soon as the words fell, she fell down and passed out.

"His Majesty!"

"Call the imperial doctor!"

In the harem, the imperial doctor was in a hurry, blood flowed in rivers in the Kunning Palace, but at the Longevity Banquet in the front hall, singing and dancing were peaceful, as if they were not affected in any way.

It wasn't until the end of the Longevity Banquet that the Empress still didn't show up, and it was not General Manager Hu who came to announce the decree, but the Commander of the Forbidden Army. Only then did the officials notice something strange, and a voice resounded in their hearts: something happened to Your Majesty.

After the imperial decree was announced, the imperial army took away the Queen Su's family from the banquet, and everyone still couldn't recover.

The queen and the second prince conspired to rebel!

And assassinated His Majesty!

What shocked the officials even more was that the second prince and the male queen, the Su family, had been killed on the spot, and the Su family had been killed by the nine clans.

Zhu Jiu Clan, the empress has never given such a heavy punishment since she took the throne.

Naivety is about to change.

After the longevity banquet, Qin Chu stood guard outside the palace gate, waiting for Qiu Jinning to come out. When he saw the person walking out with the help of the little maid, he couldn't help being stunned.

"Why did you drink so much wine?" His face was drunk, his cheeks were flushed, and Jars didn't know how to persuade him.

The jar was about to cry: "Miss, Miss Qiu just drank two glasses, one was to drink with His Majesty, and the other was to toast Pingle Princess Hong Shao, and that's it."

Red peony!

Qin Chu was startled, and hurriedly went to look at Qiu Jinning. The eyes of the person in front of him were blurred, and his face was pink, so he was still awake.

Love Gu!

If it doesn't work, Hong Shao will be tricked again.

She quickly helped Qiu Jinning into the carriage, and hurried to the Qin Mansion, asking the little girl on the way: "What's going on, didn't you let you watch?"

Jar wanted to cry but had no tears: "Your servant is staring at you. The two glasses of wine were poured for Ms. Qiu by your servant. The wine was brought directly from you, Miss. There is no problem. It must be a clinking glass with Princess PingleSomething went wrong."

"Hurry up and invite Doctor Han to come, and then go to the winery to get spirits." Qin Chu didn't care about anything else, the first thing he thought of was to quickly relieve Qiu Jinning.

"Qin Chu - it's Hong Shao." Qiu Jinning struggled to find a semblance of reason, and when he finished speaking, he raised his arms, wrapped them around Qin Chu's neck, and moved towards him.

Yan Zi immediately covered his eyes, his fingers staggered a few slits, and his eyes were full of light: "Oh, I can't see anything, Miss, just pretend I'm not here."

"Stop the car and go to Doctor Han." Qin Chu stopped the carriage and drove the little maid out.

The brave little servant girl dared to peek at her, thinking she was blind.

The hateful Hong Shao, who hurt Qiu Jinning again and again, must not be let go.

Hong Shao is trembling and kneeling in the Hall of Mental Cultivation at this moment, and the queen has woken up.

"Pingle, what kind of benefits did the second child give you? Let you plot against Qiu Jinning and dare to collude with him to plot rebellion."

The queen frowned, her face was calm, showing no signs of happiness or anger.

"Your Majesty, I have never plotted against Qiu Jinning, nor have I had any contact with the Second Prince." Hong Shao raised her head to look at the Queen, and couldn't help shaking again.

The queen glanced at her coldly: "You don't say, I say, the second brother promised to help your brother recognize his ancestors in the future and make him king. Your idiot brother is not the son of the Qin family, just like you.He is the son of the eldest princess, right?"

Ever since Princess Anguo entered the palace and had a secret talk with her, she sent someone to keep a close eye on the second prince, and checked all contacts.

Hong Shao can't hide this secret from her.

"Your Majesty!" Hong Shao was stunned, knowing that the matter had been revealed, "Your Majesty, my younger brother is the son of the eldest princess. Although he has become a fool, can't he recognize his ancestor and return to his clan?"

That year, she was seven years old and her younger brother was three years old. She fled to Jiuqu County. In the ice and snow, she put her dying brother on the road and blocked the carriage of the richest man, the Qin family.Save my brother's life.

As if hearing her prayers, Mrs. Qin not only adopted her younger brother, but also took care of her secretly, letting her hide her age and birth date and go to the county magistrate's mansion to serve as a slave and handmaiden, guarding the county magistrate's daughter Qiu Jinning.

Mrs. Qin regards her younger brother as her own son, and she will let her see him every month. Although she can't recognize each other, she feels at ease seeing his younger brother is safe and prosperous.

Until Mrs. Qin died of illness suddenly, she didn't see her younger brother for a few years, and the goodbye was on the Lantern Festival. The younger brother threw her a few silver coins and asked her to play a trick on Qiu Jinning.

She complied, and knew it was time to leave the magistrate's mansion.

She originally wanted to hide her name and spend her life in obscurity, but her younger brother had one leg broken and turned into a fool, so she came to the capital.

Hong Shao was originally a bold and careful person, she had uncovered some truths from Mrs. Qin's orders, so she boldly pretended to be the princess and became the princess.

Only by standing high enough can those who bully my brother be trampled underfoot.

Since she was able to become the princess with a fake one, why couldn't her younger brother repeat the same tricks and become a prince.

But my younger brother was stupid. How could the royal family appoint a fool as prince. At this time, the second prince came to her.

Letting his younger brother become a lord is already a deep-seated obsession, Hong Shao took out the love gu that was left behind at that time, and planted it in Qiu Jinning again.

What the second prince wants is the throne, which is Qiu Jinning, but what she wants is for her younger brother to become a prince that no one can bully, and to make the eldest prince pay the price for those who hurt his younger brother.

Looking at the unwilling person on the ground, the queen said indifferently: "Drag it out, Princess Pingle is raising private soldiers, colluding with the second prince to plot rebellion, punishing the whole family, and killing all relevant people."

Hong Shao's manpower was presumably left to her by the deceased Eldest Princess, and none of them could be spared.

Just after the Longevity Banquet, the Queen's decree followed one after another, from Princess Pingle to the Minister of the Household Department, anyone involved with the Second Prince was punished as a crime of treason.

For a time, everyone in the capital was in danger.

But some people are not guilty of death, and even innocent people are implicated, and what's more, they are punished by the nine clans after just drinking with the second prince.

Princess Anguo wanted to enter the palace to persuade her, but was blocked outside the palace for the first time.

"Your Majesty's holy body is not in good condition, and no one will be seen. Princess, please go back."

Princess Anguo glanced worriedly in the direction of the palace, with a serious face.

With the death of the second prince and the male empress, the empress seemed to never see her kindness before, the sky was about to change.

In the palace, the imperial doctor knelt in a row, everyone was terrified.

"How long do I have to live?" The queen coughed up a mouthful of blood, her wound did not heal, but festered instead, the dagger that the male queen stabbed at her was smeared with poison.

Now that things have happened, it is no longer important to find out whether the male empress wiped the poison or the second prince did it. If everyone is dead, what's the point.

She only hated herself for not being merciful, for not having the last illusion about that man and her good son.

She wished she could go back to the day at the Longevity Banquet, never put herself in danger again, and just kill all those people, all of them.

You shouldn't think about it, as a royal, it's ridiculous, ridiculous and pitiful.

she regrets...

The imperial doctor knelt down and pleaded guilty one after another. They were all helpless, and the empress might not last long.

The queen coughed twice: "Go down, just say that I will recover in a few days. If any news gets out, everyone in the Imperial Hospital will be executed."

The imperial doctors were immediately in fear, and none of them dared to tell the truth, but bluntly said that His Majesty's Holy Body is safe and he will recover in a few days.

Only then did the officials feel at ease, but when they thought of the imperial decree to punish the nine clans and destroy the whole family, they became uneasy again.

On the other side, Qin Chu brought Qiu Jinning back to the Qin residence, but the little maid failed to invite Doctor Han.

"Speak"?
