"Why?"
"Why are you doing this to me!"
Chu Yin flinched, her eyes reddened, and she looked at Feng Chaoge with hatred.
Feng Chaoge looked calm and said, "Right then, Gao Fan embezzled disaster relief money at your order, right?"
A trace of panic flashed under Chu Yin's eyes, "I don't know what you're talking about."
“Gao Fan was persuaded by your intimidation to embezzle the aid money, and after that incident, he became your scapegoat.”
“Because you are afraid Gao Fan will hand you over, you tried your best to release him and finally changed the death penalty to be sent to the northern border.”
“The other Gao family was left in the Capital as hostages to threaten him.”
“And then Gao Fan became a tool for you to collude with the Tiger Clan.”
Feng Chaoge looked at him, "Did I say something wrong?"
Chu Yin's back was already drenched in cold sweat.
So he knows everything!
Feng Chaoge said, "In addition, you formed a party for your own sake, threatening the integrity of the Empire, and doing all sorts of evil things, why do you think I should do this to you?"
Chu Yin gritted her teeth and said, "What evidence do you have?"
He never left any trace of what he had done, not even Chu Qi knew what he had done.
Even if the Holy Empress was aware of it, there was no solid evidence.
Feng Chaoge shook his head, "I don't need proof."
Chu Yin was astonished and astonished.
Indeed indeed.
With the other party's status and means, there were hundreds of ways to make his life worse than death.
And he was naive enough to think that as long as his hands and feet were clean, he would be fine….
"The name given by the late emperor at first was 'Xianqing Column', in the hope that you will become like calm water and self-cleaning storks, purify your body and cleanse yourself, and do not covet power and influence."
"If you have ambition but no ability, you'll only get yourself killed." -."
"But you have taken the liberty to change the name, claim to be a virtuous king and form a party."
"I've given you a chance, but you don't know how to appreciate it."
Feng Chaoge had promised the late emperor not to touch Chu Yin.
However, the other party was unwilling to become a peaceful prince and had colluded with outsiders, dividing the Nine Regions and trying to give up the land to become emperor.
It has touched the bottom line of Feng Chaoge's tolerance.
Looking at Chu Yin, who had lost her soul, Feng Chaoge said indifferently, "I will choose a good day for you, go in peace."
Chu Yin suddenly lifted her head and said with fear, “You can't kill me! I have a golden voucher of the late emperor, even if you are the Empress, you have no right to kill me!
Feng Chaoge shook his head and said, "Even the golden voucher does not condone the crime of treason, and the next generation will not avoid death."
Gold vouchers are not almighty.
It would not be able to absolve the crime of treason from the death penalty, and descendants were also involved.
Feng Chaoge looked a little tired, got up and was about to leave.
Chu Yin grabbed the fence and hissed, “I am the only remaining member of the royal family! If you kill me and Chu Qi, there will be nothing left in the royal family! What will happen then?”
Feng Chaoge's body stopped.
A moment later, without looking back, he said softly, "If all the royal families are like you, I might as well hand over the empire to the path of the Devils."
"Feng Chaoge!"
Looking at the fading back, Chu Yin sat helplessly on the ground, her sunken eyes full of despair.
Outside the imperial prison.
It's getting dark.
The ministers are waiting outside.
When they saw Feng Chaoge walking out, they hurriedly kneeled on the ground.
Chen Wangchuan spoke, "Your Majesty, Prince Chu's matter ......"
Feng Chaoge said, "When the emperor's son breaks the law, he is as guilty as a commoner, don't be afraid just because he's a prince."
Chen Wangchuan nodded, "I understand."
Feng Chaoge boarded the luxurious phoenix carriage, but did not leave immediately, but turned to look at Su Shi, "Where are you staying for the night?"
Su Shi shrugged, "I think I will stay in the Chen Residence."
“Not allowed.”
Su Shi wanted to refuse, but seeing the other party's slightly bowed eyes, something suddenly touched his heart.
After hesitating for a moment, he remained on the carriage.
The phoenix chariot shone with a golden light and floated away.
The scene was silent.
The ministers were still kneeling, not daring to look up, as if they had heard nothing.
Cold sweat flowed into the ground drop by drop.
Chen Wangchuan swallowed his saliva.
"Riding the same train, living in the same palace ......"
"The relationship of His Majesty and Su Shi, seems too good?"
In the luxury car.
Su Shi sat on a wooden chair carved with a flying phoenix and looked at Feng Chaoge with a strange gaze.
Feng Chaoge's eyebrows shot up, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Su Shi asked, "Are you seriously saying that you want to hand the Empire over to the Devil's path?"
"I didn't mean it to be."
Feng Chaoge's eyes looked at him, "But if you want to ......"
“I don't want it.”
Su Shi's head shook.
Seeing his evasive gaze, Feng Chaoge was slightly amused and shook his head, "This vast empire, some people are eager to seize it, while you don't even want it for free."
His tone was a little mocking and a little helpless.
Su Shi shrugged, "Everyone wants different things."
Feng Chaoge said curiously, "Then what do you want?"
Su Shi thought about it and said seriously, "I want to hold my fate in my own hands, I want to protect the person I want to protect."
"People you want to protect ......"
Confusion swept over the bottom of Feng Chaoge's eyes.
She was the Empress, who ruled all the states, and everyone in the world respected her and feared her, but who wanted to protect her from the bottom of their hearts?
More importantly, did he need them to protect him?
He sat high up on the cold throne, staring at the world, but there was no one around him.
"All emperors were lonely in ancient times."
Su Shi seemed to understand his thoughts, "Since you have ascended the throne, it's only natural that you're lonely at such a high place."
Feng Chaoge was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Do you know why I asked you to come to the imperial prison?"
Su Shi shook his head.
Feng Chaoge clearly knew everything, there was no need to "interrogate" Chu Yin.
No need for his presence.
"Because I want you to know that the reason Chu Yin is like this is because she deserves it."
“I have given him many chances before this.”
Feng Chaoge shook his head, "My heart is not as hard as a rock."
Su Shi froze for a moment, "You called me here just to prove this?"
Feng Chaoge turned his head and said in a low voice, "You said that my heart is filled with intrigue and interest!"
Su Shi was silent for a moment.
He did not expect that part of the morning to make the Holy Empress so caring.
"Knowing fully that Chu Yin colluded with the Tiger Clan, knowing full well that there was something fishy under the Xianqing Pool, yet you didn't say anything."
Feng Chaoge let out a cold snort, "You said I'm full of intrigue, aren't you the real one full of intrigue?"
Su Shi scratched his head, "You don't really think I planned everything, do you?"
"I'm ready!"
Feng Chaoge glanced at him, "You saw me shower and I haven't punished you yet."
Su Shi looked bitter, "Then how will you punish?"
"The empress's dominance is no better than a drunken life."
Feng Chaoge said nonchalantly, "You will be punished for drinking with me!"
