Chapter 822

Yang Fu, who had disposed of Zhao Meiren's body, came back and heard Meng Chengye's tone, and silently stepped back.

Based on his experience with the emperor for so many years, the emperor was very, very angry right now.

But there were more important things at the moment that suppressed the emperor's anger.

The secret guard knelt on the ground and told Meng Chengye everything he found.

The little eunuch who poisoned the cakes delivered to Ganquan Palace was left by the Zhao family to Zhao Meiren. When the little eunuch came, he was determined to die and came to poison her.

That dove poison was obtained by Zhao Meiren by asking her family to spend a lot of money.

As for Zhao Meiren, she slipped out of the back door of the palace at dawn this morning and has been hiding in the autumn rose flower bed in the imperial garden.

The autumn roses in the palace are blooming well, and Jiang Yuming likes flowers. As long as someone mentions them or sees something similar to roses, it will easily remind people of the autumn roses in the imperial garden.

What's more, it's not a secret that Jiang Yuming often goes to the Imperial Garden for a walk after waking up in the afternoon.

Most of the time, he would come back after a short walk, and usually nothing would happen. Therefore, Jiang Yuming did not clear the place when he left, which gave Zhao Meiren an opportunity to take advantage of her.

And judging by Zhao Meiren's appearance, she might have a death wish and want to take Jiang Yuming with her.

Unexpectedly, Meng Chengye sent secret guards to protect Jiang Yuming, and at the last moment, he pulled Jiang Yuming out.

But Zhao Meiren also knew that this move was too risky, so she poisoned Jiang Yuming.

Moreover, the poison will not take effect after an hour, but will take effect after one or two hours. This means that the little eunuch who tested the poison did not find anything wrong.

By the time something happened to the little eunuch who tested the poison, Jiang Yuming might have already eaten the poisoned cake.

What a good plan.

Meng Chengye clenched the tea cup in his hand with a heavy look in his eyes.

It's rare for the emperor and empress to have synchronized expressions and moods.

Late at night, Concubine Bai Xian came out with a tired look on her face: "Okay, the toxins have been forced out, but my sister has hurt her roots. From now on, I am afraid that I will need a lot of precious medicinal materials to carefully maintain them, and some food."

There are also taboos, such as..."

Concubine Bai Xian explained everything one by one, while the emperor and empress sat on the soft couch without saying a word.

Guiren Yue, who was following Concubine Bai Xian, wiped the sweat from his forehead and rubbed his sore wrists.

After Concubine Bai Xian finished talking about the matter, she returned to Yongfu Palace.

On the other side, Wen Xian looked at Meng Chengye who was sitting still, and said softly: "Your Majesty, please go back and rest first. I have my concubine here to watch. I will definitely tell the Emperor as soon as Chacha wakes up."

Meng Chengye was about to refuse when he heard Wen Xian say in a deep voice: "Tomorrow, we have to go to court early."

Meng Chengye responded and went back.

Watching Meng Chengye leave, Wen Xian opened the curtain and looked at Jiang Yuming, who was lying motionless on the bed.

People who were usually alive now lay here like corpses, which reminded Wen Xian of the day when Li Jun left.

That day, Li Lang was lying there as bloodless as Chacha.

Besides, this is Chacha’s second time...

A hint of viciousness flashed across Wen Xian's usually gentle and bright eyes.

She will tell the world what the consequences will be if someone touches her.

Early the next morning, Meng Chengye went to court on time.

Everyone would think that Meng Chengye would be furious or in a bad mood today.

But who knew that Meng Chengye was not only on time, but also had a smile on his face that was no different from usual.

The ministers below were silent for a moment, and they didn't even dare to take a breath.

They were afraid that Meng Chengye's anger would fall on them.

This morning, all nine members of the Zhao family died.

There are so many people from the Nine Tribes that such a big thing cannot be hidden in Shangjing.

But the person who did it didn't want to hide it from everyone, and the deaths of the nine members of the Zhao family were particularly miserable.

There wasn't even anyone to collect the bodies.

The body was lying naked and bloody at the door of the mansion.

People around him were just feeling emotional, but no one sympathized with the Zhao family.

Even if they were, they wouldn't dare to show it on their faces. Something happened to the imperial concubine yesterday, and today thousands of members of the Zhao family's nine clans disappeared overnight.

The emperor didn't even want to make an excuse. It was obviously just for the sake of the noble concubine.

Meng Chengye looked at the people below who were silent for a long time without daring to speak. Then he raised his hand, and Yang Fu on the side sang loudly: "If you have nothing to do, you will retreat from the court!"

The ministers below still did not dare to speak, and their voices were much lower even when they knelt down to greet the emperor.

As for the nine Zhao family clans, Meng Chengye did not do it alone, he sent people to do it, there were also dead men bought by Wen Xian, and people hired by the Jiang family.

Even General Liu received a letter from the imperial concubine in the palace and sent someone out at night.

Just seeing how many people there were, he withdrew again.

Meng Chengye stood in front of the window and looked at the struggling man lying on the ground with dark eyes.

"Did Zhao Meiren not make any plans for you before she died?" Meng Chengye whispered, "Then she is really selfish."

The people on the ground were still struggling fiercely. Meng Chengye laughed from his throat, and then said softly: "Actually, I am not that unkind. Look, all nine members of the Zhao family have been wiped out, and I still have the person she cares about the most.

Woolen cloth."

The man who was tied to the ground and struggling was none other than the younger brother of Zhao Meiren's mother.

It is said that Mei Zhao loves this younger brother very much.

"She is still watching from the sky." Meng Chengye raised his eyes and looked at the blue sky. "It is best to watch. See how her favorite brother is tortured and unable to survive or die."

Meng Chengye was extraordinarily gentle when he said this, and his tone seemed like a whisper between lovers.

Zhao Kun struggled wildly, his eyes full of resentment and despair.

He had obviously been exiled, and he thought that the worst thing in his life was to transform from a rich boy to a refugee.

But it was unthinkable that today would happen.

Why did the sister who kept saying she loved him the most hurt him again and again?

Meng Chengye chuckled and walked away, while Zhao Kun was secretly sent to Yongfu Palace.

There is still a white skeleton sleeping under Concubine Bai Xian's medicine garden. The woodshed in the backyard is empty, but now there are new residents in it.

Jiang Yuming woke up in the early morning of the third day. When she woke up, she was groggy and her stomach hurt terribly.

Huilan helped Jiang Yuming get up, fed her a few mouthfuls of porridge, then lay down and fell asleep again.

Upon hearing the news that Jiang Yuming had woken up, the first person to breathe a sigh of relief was the minister in the court.

The atmosphere in court yesterday and today is really weird.

The emperor seemed to be smiling, but they felt that the smile was sinister.
