Dressed as the mistress of the Hou family, I became the white moonlight in the Beijing circle

Chapter 411 The Price of Betrayal

The small gold lock on the table was pried open, and the pills inside were scattered on the table.

Yun Qinghe looked at the gold bracelet and suddenly lost his reaction. When he came back to his senses, tears had already fallen.

"How could he... I am his daughter, and my child has to call him grandpa..." Yun Qinghe gritted his teeth, not daring to cry.

"Queen, please take care of yourself, don't get angry." Xie Wanzhou looked worried, supported her body, and comforted her in a low voice, "You are pregnant with the heir of the Yuan family, a true dragon seed. Prime Minister Yun has already If you are interested in the throne, you will naturally not be able to tolerate this child."

Yun Qinghe clutched her belly and lay on Xie Wanzhou's shoulders. She couldn't bear the grief in her heart and cried non-stop.

The blows came one after another, almost crushing her.

Xie Wanzhou hugged her, with a flash of distress in his eyes, "Queen, I will always be with you."

Yun Qinghe wiped away his tears, with a trace of hatred flashing in his eyes, and gritted his teeth and said, "Wan Zhou... help me."

Xie Wanzhou closed his eyes and uttered one word, "Okay."

April has passed. On the surface, the capital is stable, but in fact, there is a turbulent undercurrent.

Shen Ji supervised the previous dynasty with thunderous methods. Although some people were dissatisfied, due to his prestige, they only dared to be angry and dare not speak out.

Zhuge Lao trusted him very much and gave up his position to Shen Ji, regardless of big or small matters, while he stood as a mascot in the court.

Yun Jianshan was busy winning over his own small group and had no time to find trouble. He only entered the palace a few times. Seeing that Yun Qinghe often wore the bracelet on his wrist, he took off his guard and focused on opposing Shen Ji.

The originally peaceful day was broken by Tao Ling who suddenly broke into the Tai Hospital.

Tao Ling rushed into the Taiyuan Hospital in a hurry, grabbed someone's sleeve, and shouted, "Doctor Zhao, come with me quickly!"

Doctor Zhao was stunned and took a closer look. A hint of surprise appeared on his face, "Taoling? Why are you in such a hurry? What happened?"

Tao Ling shook her head vigorously, with tears falling from the corners of her eyes, and whispered, "Doctor Zhao, come with me and have a look!"

Seeing her expression, Doctor Zhao frowned and said in a deep voice, "But something went wrong with the Queen?"

Tao Ling nodded gently, tears falling uncontrollably.

Doctor Zhao panicked, quickly carried his small medical box and rushed out of the hospital.

That one is still carrying a dragon seed in his belly, so there must be no delay!

The news that Tao Ling sought medical treatment for the Lord spread quickly, and everyone in the palace was speculating about what had happened to the Queen.

For a time, people panic.

Shen Ji stood outside Yunxi Palace with his hands behind his hands, his face gloomy.

The palace people buried their heads and didn't dare to breathe, for fear that they would make some noise and offend this gentleman.

Doctor Zhao walked out of the hospital carrying a small medicine box and met Shen Ji's eyes standing in the courtyard.

His figure overlapped that of that day. Shen Ji's face turned pale. He took two steps forward and whispered, "Mr. Zhao, the fetus in the queen's belly..."

Doctor Zhao looked helpless and shook his head gently.

Shen Ji's expression suddenly changed and he stood there, unable to recover for a long time.

Every move between the two people was watched by the palace people. A figure flashed past the door and disappeared.

When the news reached the Prime Minister's Mansion, Yun Jianshan was stunned for a long time, and then asked in a trembling voice, "The child... is really gone?"

The housekeeper nodded and said in a deep voice, "The news from the palace is that Tao Ling, who is beside the Queen, went to ask for Dr. Zhao, and Shen Ji went to see it in person. The news should be correct."

Yun Jianshan sat on the wooden chair and was silent for a moment before sighing, "I didn't expect that Xie Wanzhou could be so cruel... I can only blame this child for being born in the wrong child and blocking my way." . "Master, since you are relieved, why not..."

The housekeeper raised his hand and slid it around his neck.

Yun Jianshan looked at him, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and said in a low voice, "The time has come. Let's write letters to inform everyone that today afternoon, the thief Shen Ji will be strangled to catch him off guard."

"Yes."

quarter past noon

Yun Jianshan led more than a few hundred people to the place on the letter, only to find that the place was crowded with people.

He thought it was his own army and quickened his pace in excitement.

When he arrived, he discovered that the leader was not his subordinate, but an old friend.

Shen Ji.

"Your Excellency, the Prime Minister, came a little late and asked me to wait." Shen Ji stood tall and tall, his eyes were like a pool of clear water, and he smiled at him, looking very gentle.

"Shen... Shen Ji..." Yun Jianshan's eyes were about to burst. She didn't expect that he would be here, and murmured, "How could it be you..."

As he spoke, he looked around.

"Are the Prime Minister waiting for your loyal subordinates?" Shen Ji raised his eyebrows, smiled slightly, and said behind him, "Get out of the way and give the Prime Minister a hand."

As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers standing behind him slowly dispersed, and Yun Jianshan also saw a dozen people standing at the end.

The so-called loyal subordinates in Shen Ji's mouth were now beaten until their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen, their skin and flesh were torn, their hands and feet were tied, and they were hung upside down from a tree.

The crowd dispersed, and the dozen or so people naturally saw Yun Jianshan, but they seemed not to have seen it, and they begged Shen Ji for mercy at the top of their lungs.

"Master Shen... please let me go!"

"This official is temporarily obsessed with things. Lord Shen, please spare your life!"

"Shen...Master Shen...please give me another chance!"

Begging for mercy kept coming. Looking at Yun Jianshan whose face suddenly changed, Shen Ji sneered and said lightly, "It's fine that the Prime Minister doesn't want to rebel. Why can't he even win over his subordinates? Are you just making people laugh?"

"These bastards betrayed the Prime Minister. You are kind-hearted and reluctant to punish them. Shen is willing to do it for you."

After finishing his words, without waiting for Yun Jianshan's reaction, Shen Ji waved his hand and said in a clear voice, "Break these people's leg bones, exile them for three thousand miles, crawl over with bare hands, and serve them with good food and drink. Don't ask for it." Let them die."

"Let them understand how much the price of betrayal is."

The sounds of gasping came one after another, and even the soldiers who were used to punishment in the military camp turned pale.

Shen Ji had a smile on his lips, but there was no warmth in his eyes. He looked straight at the dumbfounded Yun Jianshan and whispered, "In the past two months, I have no idea how many people the Prime Minister has attracted and what things he has planned. It’s crystal clear.”

"I have been acting with the Prime Minister for so long. I wonder if you are satisfied with it?"

A face suddenly flashed in Yun Jianshan's mind, his face lit up, and he murmured, "Xie Wanzhou was sent here by you!"

"Wrong." Shen Ji chuckled and said calmly, "Wan Zhou followed the Queen's wishes. The two of them have been friends since they were in the boudoir. Friendship cannot be provoked by just provoking."

"...Qing'er, how could it be Qing'er?" Yun Jianshan's eyes were full of surprise, and he shouted loudly, "You are talking nonsense! I am her biological father, how could she harm me like this?"

Shen Ji didn't want to talk nonsense with him, so he took out a letter from his sleeve and put it at the foot of Yunjian Mountain. "If you don't believe it, just open it and have a look. You won't be able to recognize your daughter's handwriting, right?"

Yun Jianshan lowered his head, his eyes fell on the envelope, and his pupils shrank suddenly.

The handwriting on the envelope is elegant and neatly written with three words: book of severance.
