Chapter 145 The Birthday Banquet Ends
Seeing the Queen open her eyes, Feng Yaoyu took a few steps back in fear and fell to the ground...
The emperor's husband also looked incredulous.
Suddenly, several secret guards appeared beside the queen and protected her. The leader of these secret guards was Jiuyi.
The empress looked heartbroken as she sat up, looked at Feng Yaoyu who was sitting on the ground, and then glanced at her husband who looked surprised.
Feng Zhaoyun saw that the empress had woken up and hurried forward to pay his respects. "Greetings, mother!"
Everyone behind him knelt down and bowed, "Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty."
The Queen looked at Feng Yaoyu coldly, "Yaoyu...you really disappoint me!"
Feng Zhaoyun's men hurried forward, took Feng Yaoyuhuang's husband and all their men down, and made them kneel in the hall.
Feng Zhaoyun waved his hand, signaling all the soldiers and secret guards to leave the hall, and the hall immediately returned to normal.
The Queen sat on the dragon throne, Feng Zhaoyun and Bai Jinzhi stepped aside and sat with Bai Mohan.
All the ministers returned to their seats, but they knelt on the ground, not daring to look up.
At this time, Feng Zhaoyun saw that Zhuo Yueli from the Western Region had disappeared during the chaos, so he quickly called Xiao Siying and leaned over to say a few words to her. Xiao Siying took the order and disappeared in the hall.
The Queen looked at Feng Yaoyu who was being held captive and said calmly, "Take off the princess's clothes from her!"
Several eunuchs stepped forward and took off Feng Yaoyu's outer robe in front of everyone.
At this moment, the emperor hurriedly knelt down and stepped forward, "Your Majesty! Please have mercy and spare Yao Yu!"
The Empress looked coldly at her husband, "Yang! I haven't settled my account with you yet! You poisoned Qingyun to death! And you harmed my Yun'er! And now, you have the nerve to plead for someone else!"
The emperor collapsed on the ground and kowtowed several times, "Your Majesty...I did it all! I did it all! Please, spare our daughter!"
At this time, Feng Yaoyu was kneeling on the ground in a daze, no longer as arrogant as before.
Feng Zhaoyun stepped out of the group, bowed, and said, "Your Majesty, Feng Yaoyu first colluded with the Western Regions to assassinate my son in Yan State, and then returned to the capital to poison me with the intention of rebellion. She and my husband have countless other crimes, and they must be executed for all of them!"
The Queen looked at Feng Zhaoyun, "Yun'er...get up."
Feng Zhaoyun stood up after hearing this. The Queen sighed, "Yaoyu... I am very disappointed in you... Someone come!"
Upon hearing this, Feng Yaoyu quickly pleaded with the Queen, "Mother! I know I was wrong! Mother, please forgive me this time! Mother!"
The Empress spoke coldly, "The Ninth Princess Feng Yaoyu murdered the Crown Princess and plotted rebellion. She and her husband, the Emperor, will be imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison and executed on a chosen day. The other ministers who were involved will have their property confiscated and be executed, and their bodies will be torn apart by five horses!"
At this moment, there was a sudden shouting in the hall, and Minister Gu and others were all dragged out.
After a moment, the hall returned to calm.
The Queen looked at Feng Zhaoyun and said, "Your Highness, you have done a great service in saving the Emperor this time. I will reward you on a later date. Please withdraw now. I am tired. If there is anything else, we can talk tomorrow..."
Everyone knelt tremblingly, "We will take our leave. Long live His Majesty."
After the ministers left, the empress sent someone to summon the princess to the imperial study.
Feng Zhaoyun entered the imperial study. At this time, she was still wearing a maid's uniform and had not had time to change clothes.
The empress looked much more haggard. She was sitting in front of the imperial study, writing documents at the desk.
The setting sun shone on the empress, and Feng Zhaoyun suddenly realized that his mother... had grown old.
Feng Zhaoyun bowed and saluted, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you, my Lord."
The Queen raised her head and looked at Feng Zhaoyun, "Stand up."
Then he walked towards Feng Zhaoyun and hugged her, "Yun'er... I'm glad you're okay."
The Queen said, "Tell me the truth about what happened after you went to Yan Kingdom."
Feng Zhaoyun told the Queen what had happened, and also how Qing Mu had saved her. When she heard the name Qing Mu, the Queen was visibly taken aback...
After Feng Zhaoyun finished speaking, the imperial study fell silent for a moment, and then the empress said, "I understand. Please withdraw first and entertain the two princes of Yan Kingdom for me."
Feng Zhaoyun bowed and saluted, "Yes, your son will take his leave."
