Chapter 371
As the Empress Dowager Zhong spoke, there was a sudden silence in the hall.Several officials have already begun to guess the meaning of the Empress Dowager Zhong's words, and no one dared to express their opinion for a while.

In fact, everyone knew well that what she said was clearly aimed at King Jin.But King Jin is the regent after all, who would dare to impeach Queen Mother Zhong face to face?Her words were like a final word, everyone carefully set their sights on Jin Wang, but Jin Wang seemed to stay out of the matter, and he never had the slightest emotion.

Everyone had different expressions, and Empress Dowager Zhong seemed quite satisfied with the situation.She took a sip of tea unhurriedly, then turned her eyes to the little Emperor Zhou who was at the side, and asked kindly, "Does the emperor have any objections to what the Ai family said?"

The little Zhou Emperor was suddenly mentioned by the Queen Mother, and immediately felt that dozens of pairs of eyes were staring at him in the extremely majestic court.But among dozens of pairs of eyes, only one pair made him tremble, so he could only nod stiffly.

The Empress Dowager Zhong's voice was even more gentle and soft, with a slightly doting chuckle, "Don't be nervous, my son. The officials in my Great Zhou Dynasty are all reasonable people, and everyone will distinguish right from wrong."

Little Emperor Zhou suddenly felt cold in his heart, "What the empress mother said is very true."

From the beginning to the end, King Jin didn't say a word.In such a situation, apart from acquiescing to what the Empress Dowager Zhong did, he naturally cannot behave excessively, so it is almost the best countermeasure at the moment to respond to all changes without change.

However, Empress Dowager Zhong intervened this time, after all, it still made the situation above the court a lot of embarrassment.Being listened to by a woman behind a curtain almost divided the allegiance of all officials.However, judging from the situation, those who are loyal to the Little Zhou Emperor will naturally favor the Queen Mother at this time, and those who originally planned to be loyal to King Jin will naturally not change at this time.

Empress Dowager Zhong was very satisfied, raised her eyebrows at the upright official who stood up earlier and asked, "Does Master Wei still have any objections?"

The upright official was slightly taken aback, as if he hadn't expected the Empress Dowager Zhong to know his name.But soon he realized it, and then shook his head and said, "I dare you, the Empress Dowager is all for Your Majesty, but there are also the rules of the early court. The Empress Dowager is here to listen to the government behind the curtain, and there are many matters that cannot be decided..."

Speaking of this, he hesitated.

Empress Dowager Zhong was obviously against King Jin, if he said too much this time, he might be considered helping King Jin.But these days, the affairs of the court and China have been taken care of by King Jin, and the little Zhou Emperor who stepped in all of them obeyed the opinions of Queen Mother Zhong.If the two people's political views are inconsistent at that time, it will obviously cause a lot of trouble.

"Master Wei, I'm afraid it's wrong to say that?" Before the Queen Mother Zhong could speak, there was another official beside the upright official. This person had a goatee and was the same official as the upright official. It is already obvious that listening to the government behind the curtain is just for fear that His Majesty will listen to the villain's slander. In this case, it is His Royal Highness Jin who makes the decision, and the Queen Mother will confirm it in the end. Isn't it foolproof?"

After speaking, he smiled and looked at the Queen Mother Zhong behind the screen, "The Queen Mother is all for Da Zhou. If that's the case, why not listen to the government behind the curtain?"

"This……"

As a result, the situation is even more polarized.Although there was no expression on the faces of the people, they had already made up their minds and were ready to stand in line.

Empress Dowager Zhong seemed to want to maximize her magnanimity. She secretly glanced at King Jin who had been silent all this time, then got up and said, "Is it up to the Ai family to make decisions? The emperor should decide everything."

The words in the scene are extremely beautiful, but everyone almost knows it well.Even so, the words of the Empress Dowager Zhong finally had some effect, and the upright official knew that his words had provoked disputes, so he did not intend to continue talking.

After the DPRK-China affairs were reported in turn, they withdrew from the DPRK.Empress Dowager Zhong left with the little Zhou Emperor, and everyone sent them off respectfully.

Jin Wang remained silent about today's matter, without too many surprises, and at the same time, he did not express his opinion too much.It wasn't until after he retired from the court that he left in a hurry and went all the way back to Prince Jin's mansion.

Although today's incident did not cause waves on Jin Wang's face, but thinking of being bumped into by the little Zhou Emperor that night, and today's such a scene, he always felt a little uncomfortable.After returning, he hurriedly changed his clothes, and then went to the secret room.

And in the secret room.

In a dark and damp corner, there is always a feeling of coldness and dampness.Under the dim candlelight, an old and pale face could be vaguely seen.The surroundings are full of things that are needed for daily life, except that the secret room is rather dark and simple, everything else is readily available.

Fu Mingyi was in it, and after several adjustments, he felt a little unbearable.

He heard the sound of footsteps from far and near, and he exhaled deeply, then opened his eyes.

Under the candlelight, King Jin really stood at the entrance of the secret room.Fu Mingyi opened his lips slightly, and his voice echoed in the secret room, "His Royal Highness King Jin." He said a word, which was regarded as a greeting.The secret room was originally in Prince Jin's mansion, so everything in it was given to him by King Jin, so Fu Mingyi was unwilling to entertain himself with King Jin's things.

Xiao Jin took a look at him, and saw that his face was still paperless, but there was a bit of worry on his face, "The national teacher's injury is not healed yet?" It's just this worry, I don't know if he is really worried about his injury, or there is something else concern.

Xiao Jin's expression was complicated, Fu Mingyi already had a premonition that King Jin's visit today must be something that happened in the court.So he asked directly and in a low voice, "King Jin came here today, maybe it's not all because of my injury?"

To put it so bluntly, Xiao Jin is not willing to beat around the bush.He nodded, and randomly found an empty seat to sit down.Then he nodded heavily, "I don't know when the national teacher can leave the customs?" After speaking, seeing Fu Mingyi's eyebrows raised, he then told Fu Mingyi all the things in the court today.

After hearing what happened in the court hall, Fu Mingyi pondered for a moment with a gloomy expression.

"I'm afraid it will take some time before we leave the customs, unless there is blood jade in hand." Fu Mingyi's heavy eyelids slightly sunken when the word "blood jade" was mentioned, and then he sighed regretfully and helplessly, "It's a pity that the blood jade is now Not in my hands..."

Xiao Jin's brows were furrowed tightly, and after a while, he finally said in confusion, "How about..."

If it wasn't a last resort, Xiao Jin didn't want to do that either.However, as soon as he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Fu Mingyi firmly, "Your Highness must not move such thoughts. The situation in the court is already tense, not to mention that it would be inappropriate to come forward as a Highness."

How could Xiao Jin not know about this matter?It's just that he recognizes Su Yu and his son now, so the court affairs need to be resolved quickly.Thinking of this, Xiao Jin subconsciously glanced at Fu Mingyi.

By the way, he hasn't told Fu Mingyi about his acquaintance with Suyu and his son.

Xiao Jin opened his mouth slightly, but finally swallowed the words back in his throat.If he remembered correctly, Fu Mingyi was from Qi State, and Su Yu seemed to be from Qi State as well.There may be intricate origins in this, let alone the person in front of him... Although he needs his immediate help, it does not mean that he can completely trust him.

So much trust that he even told him about his own affairs without hesitation.

Fu Mingyi seemed to see Su Yu's embarrassment, so he asked directly, "Is there something else, my lord?"

Xiao Jin shook his head, "It's gone, the national teacher should recover from his injuries as soon as possible, and this king will not bother. As for the blood jade, this king will think of other ways in the next few days."

Fu Mingyi nodded and watched Xiao Jinyuan leave.

At the same time, in the water pavilion.

Tong Ange lived with Lan Yu here, and after a few days, she could hardly get used to the smell of Lan Yu's body.Yao Wang once said that Lan Yu didn't have much time, at most a month, and these few days were already too extravagant for Lan Yu.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! No... no!" Lan Yu was almost stunned, and these few words came back and forth in his mouth.She shook her head in disbelief, but she didn't dare to be too vigorous. The corruption on her body was getting worse and worse. Even through a layer of veil, Tong Ange could almost see the body and face under the veil bit by bit. shrinkage.

Her figure seemed to be becoming almost precarious, and her whole body was like a dead tree.

In the past few days, Tong Ange has been subconsciously paying attention to the changes in her body.

Seeing her like this now, apart from sympathy and pity in my heart, there is also a bit more disdain.She shook her head and sighed, "You want my skin, but now I'm right in front of you, everything is ready, but you can't do anything... Tsk tsk tsk, what a pity."

When Lan Yu heard this, he was immediately poked in pain.She was slightly startled, and a hoarse and vicissitudes voice came from inside her chest, "Shut up!"

The voice became weaker and weaker.

After Tong Ange heard this, he felt mixed feelings, but still shook his head.

"I'll try one last time!" Lan Yu said, and immediately started to activate the blood jade again.However, she didn't have much strength in her body, how could a body that was almost rotten to the point of breaking down activate the blood jade?She was originally a dead person, but now she is lingering on her last breath, but she is still a useless person.Even though she didn't want to admit it, the facts were exactly the same as what Tong Ange said.

What she wanted was right in front of her, but there was nothing she could do about it.

Tong Ange saw her tormenting her body so much, the corner of her mouth raised a hint of mockery, "You should not waste your energy in vain, right? There should be a month left, and your tossing will probably shorten a few more days. I advise you You still give up, this kind of sorcery will never succeed at all."

"Shut up! Shut up!" Lan Yu was almost insane. She looked at the blood jade in her hand obsessively, then glanced at Tong Ange, then snorted coldly, "Don't be too happy, your body, Sooner or later it will fall into my hands!"

Even so, her heart was still very disturbed by Tong Ange.Now that her strength is not strong enough to activate the blood jade, it is useless for Tong Ange to stay here, even putting it in front of her makes her feel extremely uncomfortable.Immediately, she sent someone to lock Tong Ange back into the dark room.

Lan Yu had a bad feeling in her heart, recalling what Tong Ange said, she only had less than a month left...

And the blood jade...

No!She still has a chance, even if she can't, there are still others in this world who can!Yes, as long as Fu Mingyi comes back, she can let Fu Mingyi activate the blood jade to change her soul.At that time, she can have a good skin, and at that time, she will finally not have to watch her body decay, stink, and eventually fester like a dead person.

As long as Fu Mingyi came, she would be free.

Thinking of the day of liberation, Lan Yu's mouth curled into a smile.

She will be free soon.

"Come on! Come on!" Lan Yu was extremely excited, his eyes under the veil were almost as cold as daggers.

As soon as her summons arrived, a personal maid rushed over, "What is the princess' order?"

"Get ready for me, I want to drink blood!"
