Chapter 317 Abolish the Old Demon Empress!

"He's talking nonsense!"

After Liu Qian's words fell, the queen mother who had been dismissed by the old general Wei earlier retorted sharply, pointing at Liu Qian and looking at the old general Wei and others: "That's not the case, how could the Ai family and the emperor do such things, this slave must be killed by someone Bought it."

How can such a thing be admitted?Once recognized, what will Old General Wei and others think of her and the emperor, let alone, once it is spread, how will the civil and military officials and the people of the world treat them in the future?Both her and the emperor's face will be completely lost.

"No, every word the servant said is true..."

"you shut up!"

Liu Qian was afraid that he would die of the dark guard's method of extorting a confession, so he hurriedly cried and defended. The queen mother was shaking with anger, wishing to rush over and strangle him to death. Pei Yuanlie sneered coldly: "You should shut up, sir Demon Queen, you must not have forgotten, just now we have arrested a lot of your shadow guards, no matter how stubborn the dead are, they all have weaknesses. Under severe punishment, you think they will grit their teeth and say nothing ?"

If you still have to quibble even now, do you really think they are all idiots?

"You... Pei Yuanlie, Ai's family is your grandmother!"

He actually dared to call her the Old Demon Empress. The Empress Dowager was afraid of returning home, but relied on her status as an elder to vent her dissatisfaction.

"Grandmother?"

Raising his eyebrows, Pei Yuanlie walked over step by step, his handsome face was so beautiful that there was no flaw in it, exuding evil and murderous aura intertwined, the queen mother was a little stunned for a while, she backed away unconsciously, but sat down on the chair, Pei Yuanlie walked up to him and bent down: "The queen mother will not forget how the king's father, mother and concubine died, right?"

"you……"

The queen mother's pupils shrank and her eyes widened. He really held a grudge!

"I don't want to mention the previous matter for the time being, but this time, you must give me an explanation, otherwise, I won't know who is my grandmother and who is my uncle."

Standing up straight, Pei Yuanzheng glanced at the emperor next to him lightly while speaking. If the battle between Xia and Chu had not yet been concluded, their strength would not be enough to swallow Daqin completely and at the same time prevent Chen Bei and other countries from fishing in troubled waters. Today, he will sacrifice their heads and blood to his father, concubine and old Qing Ping Wang and his wife, and make them pay the price for their past actions!

"Pei Yuanlie, you..."

Sure enough, wolf ambition!

The emperor pointed at him with trembling fingers, but his words were abruptly interrupted by Old General Wei: "Your Majesty, the evidence is solid, what else do you have to say?"

"I……"

Only then remembered their existence, the emperor choked up, glanced at the golden mace in his hand, and couldn't help swallowing with some difficulty: "Old general, I was confused for a while, I hope the old general will forgive me!"

No matter how reluctant he was, he had to bow his head. Old General Wei didn't care much anymore. Since he came in person, he couldn't tolerate their sophistry.

"You just want to send me away for being confused? My Wei family has served the country loyally for generations. Every descendant has stayed at the frontier for longer than enjoying the blessings in the imperial city. The Great Qin has established the country for more than 300 years, and the Wei family has also existed for more than 300 years. You know How many children and grandchildren of us have buried their bones in the frontier, how many descendants have become disabled at a young age, and can't take care of themselves? For more than 300 years, have we ever had a complaint? Your Great Qin royal family has been afraid of my family's great achievements, but You never know that my descendants of the Wei family are more reluctant than you to see the great Qin Dynasty overturned. Emperor, I am very disappointed in you this time. You are the emperor. Your eyes should be on the world and the people, not on who and Who gets married is such a trivial matter, look at the years you have been on the throne, which sons and daughters of civil and military officials dare to marry casually? Xiang Qing, the son of the Marquis of Lin'an, is already twenty-one this year. You are not allowed to marry casually. Do you want people to cut off their children and grandchildren? If things go on like this, how many people in civil and military affairs do you think will be loyal to you? Do you really want the old man to say that you are not as good as the first prince and force the old man? Please issue the imperial edict of the Holy Ancestor Emperor?"

Old General Wei's hand holding the golden mace couldn't help trembling. For so many years, his Wei family has been willing to be a minister and work hard. He just hopes that Daqin will get better and better, that the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and create another glory of the emperor's time. The emperor was not as good as one generation after another, and they were chilled every day. The emperor's actions this time really made him want to dethrone him.

"Old General, I was wrong!"

The emperor knelt down with a thud, and he burst into tears for a while, this time he was really scared.

Old General Wei closed his eyes with his head hurting. He had given up hope for him. Ling Wei and his son beside him also looked gloomy. Didn't they have a heart to serve the country loyally and love the people like a son?But up to now, his fiery heart has been honed by him until there is only coldness and resentment left. If a king is not like a king, why should a minister be a minister?

"Emperor, the old man gives you two choices, either abolish your biological mother and make her shave her head and go to the emperor's mausoleum to guard the spirit of the late emperor, or abolish you, and the person with power will live there!"

One of the two grandsons was almost ruined by someone, and the other was on the verge of life and death. He is still lying on the bed weakly. How could Old General Wei give up just because he made a mistake?

"No, old general Wei, you can't. The emperor is the emperor who inherited the throne from the edict of the late emperor. You can't abolish him!"

The emperor sat paralyzed on the ground with blank eyes when he heard the words. The queen mother was so frightened that she even forgot her fear. This place is something she has spent her whole life fighting for, they can't do that.

"You can try to see if the old man can destroy him!"

Tiger eyes met her tearful eyes, and old general Wei said sternly.

From his eyes, the queen mother read seriousness, she knew that they really could and dared!

"Princess Qingping is the new lord of my Nether Dark Guard. Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, because of your selfishness, the lord almost died. If you don't give us an explanation for this matter, the Nether Dark Guard can help the old lord to lay down the Great Qin Wanli 300 years ago. Heshan, today, 300 years later, the Nether Dark Guard can also assist the new lord in destroying Daqin Jiangshan!"

Lei Zhen took a step forward, with a tough attitude not to lose to the old general Wei, because they had such confidence, but in the past, the lord kept a low profile, and they followed suit. Now that the lord is unwilling to keep a low profile, they will no longer keep silent.

What?Is Shen Liang the new master of the Netherworld Guard?

Even though he was hit hard, the Emperor and Empress Dowager were still too shocked to speak. Who would have thought that the Nether Dark Guard of the Wei family was not passed on to the direct descendants, but was passed on to the grandson. What is Shen Liang capable of?Is it true that as Ryan said, he is the reincarnation of auspicious heaven?

"Your Majesty, the Ling family is not as good as the Wei family. We have not abolished your right, but the last general is not talented, and I still want to ask for an explanation. Over the years, the last general considers himself to be diligent and diligent, and has never offended His Majesty. Since Wei Xuan is engaged to Yucheng, she is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Ling family, if His Majesty has harmed him so much, how can the general be loyal to the emperor and serve the country again?"

Ling Wei, who had never spoken a word, also spoke. This was the first time he showed his strong side in front of the emperor. In the past, even if he knew that the emperor would use him or the Ling family as a weapon, as long as the bottom line was not touched, he would be happy with it. He thought that at least the emperor would not guard against him as he did against the Wei family or King Qingping, and at least he could seek a good death for the descendants of the Ling family, but it turned out that he was wrong, and conceding could not gain his trust. Things are the best proof.

Being stared at by a courtier like this, the emperor felt so ashamed and angry that he didn't even dare to meet his eyes. Who let them be negligent for a while and let them catch the ironclad evidence?

"Uncle, should you make a choice?"

Pei Yuanzheng didn't say anything more, he called uncle, no matter how he listened or mocked, he said that this time they must feel pain, otherwise, such things will continue to flow in the future, and they may not be able to catch them every time evidence.

"you……"

Reflexively raised his head and glared at him, the emperor resisted being aggrieved, and turned to look at Old General Wei with a pitiful expression: "Old General, I know I was wrong, please give me a chance to correct myself."

As long as the old general is willing to let go, things will turn around.

"This old man gives you a chance, but the old temptress who encouraged you must not stay. You can figure it out. If you don't want to, then don't blame this old man for not caring about the difference between monarch and minister."

The old general Wei had a tough attitude. The emperor looked at the queen mother in embarrassment when he heard the words, and said dryly: "But the queen mother is my biological mother. The Great Qin ruled the country with benevolence and filial piety. If I abolished the birth mother and ordered her to shave her head and stay in the imperial tomb forever, what will happen to the people in the world?" What do you think of me? How will I govern the world in the future?"

At this moment, his mind became sober instead. He knew that only with great benevolence and righteousness could he impress Old General Wei.

"Now I think of governing the world? Why did you go so long ago? Stop talking nonsense, either she or you, you choose one."

In the past, Old General Wei might have softened his heart, but this time his most beloved grandson was involved, and he would not give up easily no matter what.

"I……"

Seeing his resolute attitude, the emperor turned his head and looked at the queen mother in a dilemma. If he could only choose one of the two, then he would only have one choice.

"You... are worthy of being the good prince of the Ai family, haha..."

After understanding what he meant, the queen mother collapsed on the ground, she put her hands on the ground and burst into tears, she knew that she was abandoned, and between her and the throne, her son chose the throne.

"Come here, pen, ink, paper and inkstone are waiting for the emperor's decree."

With a sneering lip, Pei Yuanlie waved his hand, and the armored guards came forward with pens, inks, papers and inkstones in their hands. Under their gaze, the emperor had to write down the abolition of the Queen Mother, immediately shave her, and send her to the imperial mausoleum to guard the spirit of the late emperor. The imperial edict, in order to beautify himself, he pushed everything on the queen mother, and recorded it all on the edict. When the last word fell, the wolf hair in his hand also fell.

"Your Majesty, use the seal."

Old General Wei stepped forward and unceremoniously took away the drafted edict, he didn't express anything about his practice of pushing everything on the old demon queen, he just urged him to stamp the jade seal, but if you look carefully, it's not difficult to find that he The disappointment hidden in the depths of his eyes, he didn't sympathize with the demon queen, but how could a person who would give up his own mother for the sake of the throne be expected to love the people like a son?

"bump!"

When the red jade seal fell, everything became a foregone conclusion. Old General Wei withdrew the edict again: "Where is the chief executive?"

A thick and powerful voice resounded throughout the Ci'an Palace, and Yang An, who had been left outside from the beginning, trotted in with his head down: "The slave is here."

"According to the procedure, publish this edict to the world."

Old General Wei handed him the rolled-up imperial edict. Yang An looked up at the emperor cautiously, and took it with both hands after seeing that he did not object: "Your servant obeys."

"Deposed Empress Ding, come with us."

After Yang An left, Lei Zhen brought Yuan Shao and the others to the distraught old demon queen. They would personally supervise her shaving and send her to the Imperial Tomb, and they would not give them any chance to play tricks after they left.

Ding didn't move, as if he didn't hear his voice at all. The emperor sitting there clenched his fists, but he didn't dare to look at her. He knew she was disappointed in him, but he had no choice Ah, if he is deposed, there is really no hope. No matter which of his sons ascend to the throne, they will not be able to treat him kindly to his father. He cannot hand over the throne to anyone.

"take away."

No one has the patience to wait for her to slowly accept the psychological gap of becoming a deposed queen mother and having to shave her head to go to the emperor's mausoleum to accompany the late emperor. Lei Zhen waved his hand, and two ghost guards stepped forward to support her, one left and one right.

"Mother..."

In the end, the emperor couldn't help but let out a cry, and tears rolled down the eyes of the old demon queen who had her back turned to him. She closed her eyes, didn't look back, didn't say anything, and let the dark guards take her away.

"Emperor, take care of yourself, don't let the old man enter the palace again!"

Taking one last look at the emperor, the old general Wei turned around abruptly. Pei Yuanlie and the others didn't waste their words anymore. Let him be silent for a while, but it doesn't matter. When he regains his strength, they will no longer be what they are now. At that time, Daqin Jiangshan will really change hands.

"Mother!"

When only he and Liu Qian, who had been tied up by Wuhuada, were left in the main hall of Ci'an Palace, the emperor's heart-piercing roar resounded throughout the entire hall, echoing repeatedly, and lingering for a long time!
