791 Threat
In front of the writing desk, Han Chaoen stood facing the emperor. At this time, his back was straight, his head held high and his chest expanded. He was no longer as hunchbacked as usual, and his face was not at all respectful and humble.

Because he had had suspicions in his mind early in the morning, when he saw Han Chaoen like this, Gu Yuqing was not particularly surprised. Instead, he suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Mo Jin had just proposed the engagement to the emperor in front of everyone.

It turned out to be the idea.

First, he created a sincere attitude in front of everyone, and then, he tried to force the palace and usurp the throne. Once he succeeds, no one can doubt that it was him!
Really treacherous!

Taking a deep breath and forcing herself to quickly adapt to the solemn atmosphere in the room, Gu Yuqing began to search for the location of the incense burner.

After the emperor finished speaking, Han Chaoen snorted and sneered, "Then it can only be said that you are ignorant, who is to blame!"

The tone is very close to contempt.

The emperor's face turned purple when Han Chaoen said something against him. He was someone he had respected for several years!
My chest was rising and falling violently, and I was gritting my teeth, but I couldn't say a word.

No one seemed to notice Gu Yuqing's arrival at all.

Mo Jin stretched out his hand and pointed at the blank imperial edict laid out in front of the emperor, and said in a cold voice: "You'd better stop struggling and quickly write down the imperial edict of passing the throne to save yourself a lot of trouble."

The emperor clenched his fists with hatred and said through gritted teeth: "What benefits did Xiao Ke give you to force you to force the palace like this!"

When the word "Xiao Ke" came out of the emperor's mouth, Gu Yuqing's eyes, which were staring at the incense burner on one side, suddenly trembled. The top of her head felt like thunder struck, and her whole body was agitated. She turned to look at the emperor.

Ke'er...

Mo Jin actually wants the emperor to pass the throne to Ke'er!

Hearing the emperor's words, Mo Jin sneered, "What kind of temperament does your ninth son have? Don't you have any idea in your own mind? He has no backing, no favors, and no established power. He is basically a dispensable person in the palace."

"What good can he promise me!" Mo Jin chuckled disdainfully, "If we talk about the good, it is to push him to the top. He can be a worthy puppet, and the person who manipulates him behind the scenes does not have to be manipulated by others. Make irresponsible remarks, after all, he is already ten years old, but he is much more sensible and independent-minded than those baby babies."

"If I explain it this way, do you still have any doubts?" Mo Jin seemed to be in a particularly good mood.

No wonder he was in a good mood. On the first day he entered the capital, he held the emperor hostage and forced him to abdicate in favor of someone more worthy. How could he be in a bad mood!
His words were like icicles hitting the top of Gu Yuqing's head, forcing layers of cold sweat to break out. After being shocked and frightened, Mo Jin finished speaking, and Gu Yuqing breathed a secret sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Mo Jin answered like this.

If he made up a random story and said that it was indeed Ke'er who bribed him to get the throne and acted like this, I'm afraid that even if Mo Jin's plot failed in the end, it would be difficult for Ke'er to prove his innocence in the heart of the emperor.

Once he is branded with a mark of suspicion, this mark will stay with him for the rest of his life, and his already difficult palace life will become even more dark.

Mo Jin was patient, but Han Chaoen seemed particularly impatient.

"What's the point of nagging him, explaining all this, but it's all in vain for a dying man." Han Chaoen, who had changed from his usual elegant demeanor and took off his mask, was extremely rude.

After the initial shock and anger, the emperor gradually calmed down. After all, he had gone through the battle to seize the throne, stepped on the corpses and blood of countless people along the way to sit on the supreme position today, what kind of scene had he never seen before.

Heaving a sigh of relief, the emperor leaned back on the chair and leaned towards Han Chaoen. His eyes were as deep as a cold pool, "As you said, death is inevitable anyway. Since it is death, why should I write this thing to let you suffer?" Cheap, if your guess is correct, once I write this imperial edict, you will force me to appoint you as the only minister who cares about life!"

Han Chaoen waved his hand impatiently, "Stop blabbering, now that things have happened, do you think you are still the supreme emperor who can make people tremble and kneel down to kowtow with just one look? You are just a lost dog that fell into our hands. A dog There are so many nonsense, really don't give you any color, look, you don't know your situation yet."

After that, Han Chaoen bent down and pulled out a bright sharp knife from his boots. The silver light shone at first, which made people feel cold. The tip of the knife pointed at the emperor and gestured: "You said, I will chop you off first." Where is your right hand, or should you cut off your left ear first?"

The emperor immediately laughed, with ridicule in the laughter, and said firmly: "You dare not go anywhere! Even if I die, it will be a complete corpse, otherwise, your treacherous plan will fail!"

After saying this, the emperor's eyes were cold and even filled with provocation.

Seeing this, Gu Yuqing's heart, which had been tense because Han Chaoen drew his sword, immediately relaxed. The emperor's words were true. No one, whether it was Han Chaoen or Mo Jin, dared to hurt him in the slightest before the emperor's edict was written.

Now that he was sure that the emperor was safe for the time being, Gu Yuqing quietly moved towards the location of the incense burner. As long as Han Chaoen and Mo Jin did not have strong forces to control the palace, the longer the emperor persisted, the safer he would be.

Not to mention that when Xiao Yu turned back and the Forbidden Army appeared, even the people in the main hall would notice something unusual in the side hall.

Mo Jin is a prince from a foreign country, and the number of people he can bring into the palace are only a few. If the people in the main palace want to rush into the side hall, his people may not really be able to stop them.

Just as he was thinking about it, he raised his foot, but Han Chaoen suddenly turned around, looking straight at Gu Yuqing with a pair of sinister eyes, with a ghostly smile on the corner of his mouth.

Moving towards Gu Yuqing, he held a bright dagger in his hand, the tip of the knife pointed directly at her, with a sneer on his lips, "We don't dare to do anything to you, but if this person who is on the top of Xiao Yu's heart dies because of you, Do you think Xiao Yu will forgive you when he comes back?"

"Besides, besides her, there is also the Queen Mother! Do you think that we designed today's game just to imprison you in this side hall without any other preparations? How stupid and arrogant!"

Seeing Han Chaoen approaching, Gu Yuqing immediately stopped her steps in order not to irritate him. But in an instant, the cold tip of the knife in Han Chaoen's hand scratched her chin, and the back of the knife struck her plain face, one after another. Threat in one word.

Gu Yuqing's heart twitched when she heard the word Queen Mother.

She was a person who had died once. Even if she went to hell again, she would still be unwilling and unwilling to give up, but in the end she did not have such a strong fear.

But the Queen Mother...the elder who loved her as if she were his own granddaughter...

Just thinking about anything Mo Jin might do to the Queen Mother in order to force the Emperor, Gu Yuqing's heart trembled and her hair trembled.

She could bear the pain in her own body, no matter how deep it was, but if that pain fell on someone she cared about...
