After a long time.
Emperor Longqing looked at Zhao Mu with a hint of sarcasm on his lips.
"What are you doing here, brother?"
"What to do?"
Zhao Mu seemed to be stimulated by the ridicule, his voice suddenly became louder, and he scolded, "I will overthrow the false emperor like you, clear the source, and revitalize the imperial court!"
"Fake emperor, fake emperor..."
Emperor Longqing lowered his head and murmured to himself, letting out a weird laugh, "Chi chi chi, false emperor, hahaha, false emperor, hahaha, I am the false emperor!"
The voice was high and low, like crying and laughing, which made people's hair stand on end.
"I am the Emperor of Daqing!"
Emperor Longqing stood up violently, stood condescendingly on the steps, and stared at Zhao Mu with sharp eyes. "I have eliminated the palace troubles, pacified King Who Pacifies the North, innovated the tax system, expanded the territory, revived the Daqing, and my achievements are catching up with Grand Ancestor!"
"And you, a loser, who died at the hands of Wicked Empress long ago, dare to face me?"
Thump thump thump.
Zhao Mu was frightened by Emperor Longqing's momentum and couldn't help but take three steps back. When he reacted, he became angry and said.
"Why are you so crazy? Now I am the one who lives and dies, and I am the Emperor of Daqing!"
There is no need to hide the purpose in the words, and there is no need to hide the fact that victory is within reach.
"Yeah, I'm going to die again..."
Emperor Longqing lost his momentum and slumped down on the dragon chair. He looked at Zhou Yi and Tang Mingyuan again. "Eunuch Yi, Mr. Tang, who are you?"
Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows, not knowing how to answer.
Since Emperor Longqing is asking this, it must not be referring to the identity of Director Zhou, but who else could it be besides this identity?
Tang Mingyuan's eyes flickered. He had read many online novels in his previous life. Besides, he had traveled from another time and space, so he had some vague guesses about the origin of Emperor Longqing.
"Your Majesty, the common man is Jiang Ning's son-in-law."
"Sister-in-law? Humph!"
Emperor Longqing did not continue to ask, since he had completely lost, why bother to get to the bottom of it, and said to himself.
"Every result has a cause, and everything gained has a price..."
Zhou Yi thought about the deep meaning of Emperor Longqing's words, combined with the previous questions, and felt chills running down his spine.
"Where does our family's immortality come from?"
Zhou Yi has previously explored the origin of immortality. Apart from a long life, it does not seem to have any disadvantages, so he regards it as his unique talent.
However, all effects originate from causes.
Where does this talent come from? It cannot be for no reason. Even the blessing of a Bodhisattva needs incense, let alone the "Gods and Devils" that bestows immortality.
"Eunuch Yi, Mr. Tang, don't listen to this nonsense."
Zhao Mu said, "Sixteenth brother has been foolish since he was a child, and now he has fallen into madness. For the sake of the stability of the Qing Kingdom dynasty, the emperor must be abolished and re-established!"
"Maybe I'm really crazy."
Emperor Longqing sighed and looked at the silent Eunuch Yuan: "I was unworthy of one person in my past life, and I am unworthy of one person in this life, so I will use my body in this life to repay the debt of my previous life."
"Please Eunuch Yuan, please send me on my way so that I can die cleanly and don't ruin my appearance!"
Eunuch Yuan bowed to Zhao Mu, and after receiving the permission, he stepped up the jade steps, his true energy heaving in his fingertips.
Zhou Yi felt that Eunuch Yuan's true energy was condensed, almost turning into substance. The quantity may be far different from his own, but the state was not bad at all.
"We are one step away from being a genius. We almost forgot that Little Yuan was a genius that Eunuch Bureau could count back then."
Eunuch Yuan asked, "Your Majesty, who killed the late emperor?"
"Eunuch Hai."
Emperor Longqing had no reason to cover up for the enemy who killed his father. He explained, "Eunuch Hai once had a lewd harem and gave birth to a son with one of his father's concubines. I used this secret to coerce and induce him to commit regicide."
"..."
Eunuch Yuan had already speculated about this. The two Innate Grandmaster were guarding the late emperor. It was impossible for outsiders to successfully assassinate him. Only they had problems.
Eunuch Wei was the late emperor's confidant, so the only one who would betray him was Eunuch Hai, but he didn't expect that the reason would be the obscene harem.
"Eunuch Hai has been in the palace since he was a child and has cut off his dust roots long ago. How can he do obscene things?"
"Maybe the Yin pole flourishes and the Yang grows, or maybe Celestial Person is transformed..."
Emperor Longqing said, "I don't know martial arts, and I don't know the specific realm. In the future, Eunuch Yuan will tell me that among all the masters in the palace, Eunuch Hai can rank among the top three!"
"Our family?"
Eunuch Yuan didn't know why, so he asked, "The late emperor was benevolent, reformed the tax system to benefit all people, and saw the country's revival, why did your majesty kill the king and his father?"
"It shouldn't be like this. My father should have passed away long ago."
Emperor Longqing said, "In the third year of Zhengtong, my father ignored the dissuasion of hundreds of officials and forced the Western Expedition. It failed due to insufficient military pay, food and grass."
"King Who Pacifies the West, at that time Feng Wei had not yet been crowned king and died in the Western Expedition."
"At the end of the fourth year of Orthodoxy, my father forcibly reformed the tax system in order to increase the country's tax revenue. Wicked Empress took the opportunity to bewitch Aristocratic Clan and all officials, and launched a palace coup. My father died in a fire at Hall of Diligent Governance!"
When Emperor Longqing spoke, he looked at Zhou Yi and said in a cold voice, "Eunuch Yi is really the arm of my father. He raised tens of millions of military pay out of thin air, and there is still plenty left after the war."
"It even shocked the world and helped my father successfully implement the New Deal..."
"Jie Jie Jie!"
Zhou Yi laughed a few times and said, "Our family has never thought about it being so far-reaching. We are just loyal to His Majesty. As long as His Majesty orders us, we will do all the good things and never do the bad things."
Emperor Longqing said, "Eunuch Yi is so loyal, but it's a pity that my father doesn't trust him, otherwise I wouldn't have a chance!"
"Thunder, rain, and dew are all your grace."
Zhou Yi cupped his hands in the direction of Imperial Mausoleum and said, "The late Emperor doesn't trust me. It must be because our family is not doing well, and we need to reflect more!"
Zhao Mu's eyes shone brightly, he stepped forward to hold Zhou Yi's hand, and said kindly, "The Governor is the pillar of the country, and I trust him with all my heart."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Zhou Yi squeezed his eyes hard and shed a few tears, not tears of gratitude, but tears of joy.
Zhao Mu is much easier to fool than Emperor Zhengtong!
Emperor Zhengtong was not wrong to suspect Zhou Yi. Just because he missed the opportunity to rebel, Zhou Yi had no choice but to "loyal" to the end.
Eunuch Yuan watched Zhou Yi's performance with cold eyes. They once ate and lived together, and later became like enemies and like friends. How could one not know this guy's true temperament, but it was not appropriate to reveal it at this time.
"Your Majesty, as you said, because the late emperor did not die early, he committed regicide?"
"This is supposed to be my world and my achievements!"
Emperor Longqing said bitterly, "Suddenly, an inexplicable person appeared, and everything became a mess. Those who deserved to die were not alive, and those who deserved to be alive were not alive."
"Only I know how to eradicate Wicked Empress, know how to pacify the north, know who is loyal and who is traitorous in the court, know how to reform..."
"So, in order to prosper our country, I must change everything back!"
Emperor Longqing's eyes were about to burst, and he roared like a storm, seeming to vent his anger, but also seemed to be trying his best to cover up the shame in his heart.
Eunuch Yuan frowned, finally understood what Emperor Longqing said, shook his head and said.
"Fortune creates achievements, which are beyond human power!"
Say it.
With a gentle tap of his fingertips, Emperor Longqing's heart pulse was severed.
Emperor Longqing's eyes were distracted, but he was a little relieved. "You and I have been husbands and ministers for twenty years. I failed you in the last life, and now I have paid it off..."
Eunuch Yuan said silently, kneeling down.
"The country cannot live without a king for a day, so I invite His Highness to ascend the throne and preside over the government!"
Zhou Yi secretly scolded Eunuch Yuan for being insidious, and actually took the lead in supporting him, and then knelt down and shouted.
"Viva viva!"
