Chapter 278 Until Death

Qingfeng View

Fang Jie climbed up the steps along the mountain road, and looked at the scenery around the Taoist temple and couldn't help but sigh: "How come such a pure and distant place has nurtured so many wolf ambitions? If he lives here, even the world's stinging man will be cleansed from his heart."

After saying this, he was stunned for a moment, and then asked himself if he lived here, could he really be cleansed?

The answer is naturally no.

Before Fang Jie came, the people from the Great Neiwei Office had arrived first. Knowing that Prince Yi was defeated and Zhenren Xiao was captured, the Taoists in Qingfeng Temple had almost no resistance. After those who wanted to escape were killed, the rest had already kneeled down and surrendered. Qingfeng Temple was different from Yiqi Temple, and there were no great practitioners here. When the flying fish robes and armed troops from the Great Neiwei Office arrived, they had no other way out except to surrender.

When Fang Jie and the others walked into the mountain gate, they saw the fat Taoist Xiang Qingniu panting and tied the owner of Qingfeng Temple with breathlessness. When the news of the defeat reached Qingfeng Temple, the owner wanted to escape. It was just that Xiang Qingniu and Mo Ningzhen saw that Xiang Qingniu, who was furious, rushed up immediately and fought fiercely, and finally captured the owner. The fat man has obviously been frustrated these days. He used extra force when he tied the rope, and almost all the ropes were trapped into the owner's flesh.

Mo Ningzhi was more ruthless and rational than him, and naturally had no effect on ropes like such a master. After Xiang Qingniu injured the stakeholder, she immediately floated over and broke all the limbs of the stakeholder. In order to prevent him from having enough strength, he inserted a golden needle sealed on Xiang Qingniu's qi hole into the stakeholder.

Fang Jie saw Xiang Qingniu tied the rope with great regret, and was surprised and couldn't help laughing: "I thought you were already a prisoner now, and I planned to come over to catch you."

Xiang Qingniu turned around when he heard the sound, saw Fang Jie stunned for a moment, and then jumped over suddenly, as if he saw a long-lost relative, holding Fang Jie in his arms.

"Little Fangfang... I've suffered a lot just now."

Fang Jie was so embarrassed that he couldn't breathe. After pushing him away, he gave him a blank look and said, "I was thinking before I came. You were probably killed by someone. I bought candles and paper money on the way. I thought I couldn't give you more paper money for you in the last journey. I also planned to make a female paper man burn it because I know you have been virgin for half your life. If I hadn't felt sorry for the money, I would have wanted to buy a coffin... I was shocked when I saw it. You looked more alive than a zombie."

"Phhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Xiang Qingniu spat a few times and said, "Master said that I am a life of good fortune and longevity. At least I live for 150 years and die without any illness, and my descendants are all over the house!"

Fang Jie nodded and said, "Damage is usually a long life."

Xiang Qingniu patted his shoulder and sat down and sighed, "Fang Jie... Do you think I can escape the second disaster? I actually noticed the chaos of my senior brother for a long time. When Prince Yi came up the mountain, I eavesdropped on them and guessed something. The next day I went to ask my senior brother to argue, and he captured me and sealed my qi and me... Although I didn't make trouble with him, I knew that I would not report it. I guess His Majesty wouldn't spare me, right?"

He looked at Fang Jie pitifully, and his fat face was indeed missing the former spirit.

"If you are really stupid, just say what you said to the emperor again."

Fang Jiewei lowered his voice and said, "I want me to teach you this kind of thing?"

Xiang Qingniu raised his head: "What do you mean is to let me lie? I am a well-known honest and reliable Taoist with the best character in history..."

"Pooh"

Fang Jie spat at him: "Can you feel disgusted any more?"

Xiang Qingniu shook his head: "Aren't I feeling uneasy? Look at the group of officials and men over there, staring at me with their eyes, as if they were about to break me up in the next moment."

"Don't worry, you can't die."

Fang Jie smiled. When she sat down next to Xiang Qingniu, she saw Mo Ningzhi standing not far away. Fang Jie's face changed slightly, and he almost became subconsciously alert.

"She is there too?"

Fang Jie couldn't help asking.

Xiang Qingniu looked at Mo Ningzhi and said, "It was him who saved me. I was trapped by my senior brother. I was thinking about the friendship between my fellow brothers. I have thanked God for the eight generations of ancestors. But if she hadn't let me go, it would be impossible for her to be killed by the villain."

Fang Jie sighed, "Then you don't agree to me?"

Xiang Qingniu whispered: "I really have this plan!"

"Get out of your egg!"

Fang Jie cursed, looked at Mo Ningzhi and said, "I'm glad you didn't stand in the wrong team."

Mo Ningzhi was silent for a while and replied: "I thought you would say, I'm sorry you didn't die with them."

Fang Jie smiled and said, "I know you have always wanted to kill me, but I have never thought about it like this. It is better to be alive as a beautiful girl like you."

Mo Ningzhi suddenly smiled sweetly: "Don't worry, I will live well."

Fang Jie clearly felt a hint of chill, and he shrugged and said, "I sincerely hope you are happy."

After saying this, he got up and prepared to go down the mountain.

Mo Ningzhi's face changed, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in her eyes.

Fang Jie did not curse this sentence, but it was a little bit sinister. Mo Ningzhi had no happiness in recent years, and it was natural that the other party could resolve the hatred. Fang Jie sincerely wishes you happiness, clearly telling her that you will not get happiness.

"I don't know if killing you will make me happy."

Mo Ningzhi said, looking at Fang Jie's back.

Fang Jie paused and did not look back: "You really don't understand the happiness of women."

He stretched out his hand, held Chen Qingfan while holding Mu Xiao's waist and left gracefully.

...

...

The outside of Cishou Palace was surrounded by a camp, and no one was allowed to enter and exit. The eunuchs and palace maids in the palace had been captured and knelt in the yard to wait for disposal. The old palace maid who had gone to the East Palace before was also taken here, broke her limbs and removed her chin, and could not commit suicide even if she wanted to commit suicide.

Qin Liuqi was a serious offender and had been taken to the secret prison of the Da Nei Escort Office. Next, he might spend the darkest period of his life.

The little eunuch Mu San had been walking around outside the Cishou Palace for several times, and he was relieved after the people from the service camp surrounded the Cishou Palace. Seeing His Majesty's imperial chariot coming here from afar, Mu San quickly hid himself. He didn't want the emperor to let Eunuch Su see him. At this time, it was better to pretend that he didn't know anything and was not interested in anything.

When Mu San saw the brigade surrounded Cishou Palace, he knew that the overall situation was settled. When he saw the emperor's chariot turning from a distance, he really wanted to stay and see how the empress dowager faced the emperor's anger. But he didn't have the courage, so he could only retreat quietly quickly.

The imperial chariot stopped outside the Cishou Palace. The emperor walked slowly down from above with the support of Su Buwei. The elite soldiers guarding outside paid tribute to the emperor with neat military salutes. The emperor nodded slightly, and then walked into the Cishou Palace. He walked along the corridor and walked inside. The emperor did not see the eunuchs and palace maids kneeling on the ground at a glance.

Su Buwei followed the emperor and always felt that the emperor's pace was a bit heavy.

When he walked to the door, the emperor waved his hand and told Su Buwei not to follow him. Su Buwei immediately stopped and retreated to the bottom of the steps.

When the emperor walked in, he could hardly suppress his anger when he saw the queen mother sitting on the chair. Isn’t this old woman good to her? She had already put on the dress to welcome her biological son to the throne, which was extremely disgusting!

But the emperor was not angry after all. He walked over, bowed and shouted: "I have seen my mother."

The empress dowager's face was very bad, and she was as pale as she had just recovered from a serious illness. She slowly opened her eyes, glanced at the emperor and snorted coldly: "Why do you have to pretend to be hypocritical now?"

The emperor straightened up, walked to the opposite side of the empress dowager and sat down. He looked at the tea cup on the table next to the empress dowager, and it was obvious that the tea was already cold.

The emperor frowned slightly and shouted loudly to the outside: "Who served the Queen Mother with tea today? The tea was cold and no one changed it. Damn it!"

Su Buwei, who was standing under the steps, immediately turned around, glanced a few times and pointed at the two palace maids casually: "Detect the stick!"

Immediately, a few flying fish robes like wolves and tigers came up and dragged the two palace maids down. The two palace maids were wailing all the way, their voices were so shrill that it made people shudder.

The emperor sorted out his clothes, smiled and said, "Mother, look... Even now, because your tea is cold, I still killed the palace maid who serves you in anger. This matter will soon spread, and the ministers will praise me as the most filial person."

The Empress Dowager raised her head and stared at the emperor with her already turbid eyes, her face full of anger.

"Why didn't you kill me directly!"

She roared hysterically.

"Because you are the Queen Mother."

The emperor smiled at the East Coast: "It is my mother, even if... it is not my biological mother. Since I ascended the throne, I have advocated filial piety. How can I not set an example? No matter what you did wrong, you are the queen mother."

The Queen Mother looked straight at the emperor and said, "Let me die with my son!"

"You won't die, at least you won't die lately."

The emperor said gently: "You will live well. If you feel a little unwell, the imperial physicians will still do their best to diagnose you. Naturally, no one will harm you secretly. According to your body, you can live for at least three to five years. If your hatred is really strong, you can live hard to see if you can live longer than me. No one will kill you, and everyone will respect you as always."

The emperor said: "I will even tell the world that it is the Queen Mother. You have noticed Lao Liu's ambition and exposed it to me to destroy your relatives for justice. In the following days, you will be praised by all the people in the Sui Dynasty. They will all say that you are the fairest mother and of course the cruelest mother."

The empress dowager stared at the emperor fiercely. If he could kill people, the emperor would have been dismantled at this time.

The emperor did not care about the anger in the empress dowager's eyes at all. He continued in a calm tone: "I have known for a long time that you didn't want me to succeed to the throne, but when the late emperor pointed at me before he died, many court officials were present, and you didn't want to admit it. So you have been living very unhappy over the years, and you will be very unhappy when you see me, right?"

The emperor smiled and said, "So I come to pay tribute to you every morning and night, so that you can see me... twice a day."

The Queen Mother bit her lip and said angrily: "Your heart is not going to die sooner or later!"

The emperor seemed to be happier. He stood up, walked to the empress dowager, pointed to the wrinkles on the empress dowager's forehead and smiled: "Every day I come, I will carefully see if the wrinkles on your face are getting deeper. If so, I will be happy all day. I also know that you sent someone to secretly poison the god and the queen... In the first year of my ascension to the throne, you tried to win over Wu Paisheng and let him poison the rice porridge I like to eat, but how can you buy Wu Paisheng's loyalty to me?"

"In the third year of Tianyou, you sent someone to buy a colorless and odorless poison from Jiangnan, and planned to attack me. But how could you know that the person you bought to buy things for the palace was also my people?"

"In the fifth year of Tianyou, you began to quietly bury the puppets with my and the queen's names in Cishou Palace. They dug them out and stab them with silver needles dozens of times every day. But even idiots know that such things will never be useful. So I am too lazy to pay attention to them, and even want to be a big puppet for you to play with."

"In the eighth year of God's blessing, I have a prince... You began to extend your vicious hand to your grandson. Unfortunately, how could anyone in this palace hide my every move?"

The emperor smiled: "I still respect you after you have done so many evil things. I even fantasized before that sooner or later your heart will be warmed by me. Later I realized that it would be harder than warming a huge rock."

"Let's live..."
