Zhong Miao Yi was willing to believe what Ban Qiu had said once.
He said that since Su Zeyi was preparing to ascend the throne, it wouldn't be an easy thing to clear out the rest of the party. There were no urgent matters that could not be met, but he could give it his all.
Zhong Miao Yi nodded with a faint smile. All she needed was someone to help her send a message.
She knew that Su Zeyi would definitely meet with her.
He owed her.
Ban Qiu did not leave in a hurry. She asked the Ah Jiu to carry a chair over for Zhong Miao Yi and sit down. She had been bored for so many days.
Zhong Miao Yi had never been aware of the situation outside. Ban Qiu talked noncommittally about everything from the Emperor to her illness all thanks to the empress dowager's assistance.
When the people were in a state of panic when they were sending out troops, they didn't know where Yao Yan had come from, but they believed her when they saw the benevolent emperor suddenly turn violent.
Everything after that went according to plan. Su Zeyi had a high prestige to begin with, so he did not spend too much effort to successfully advise against the commoners.
After ten days of chaos in the capital, Su Zeyi dispersed the crowd of people to the outskirts of the city, not harming too many innocent people.
The emperor was sick, and the empress dowager was in charge of the palace. Not long after, the palace was breached, and officials who refused to obey were all killed on the spot by Su Zeyi. Who would be willing to die for nothing? Victory poke can be obtained.
The Zhong Miao Yi knew that the biggest mistake that the late emperor and the emperor had done was to completely suppress the Zhou family.
The empress dowager's dissatisfaction had accumulated for so many years, but it was finally time for it to erupt.
At this age, what could be more important than power?
The Zhong Miao Yi listened to Ban Qiu's story in silence before asking, "Where's Zhou Ji?"
He had been in the Su Clan for so long, could he have known about this part of the plan?
Whether the discord between him and Su Zeyi was seen by the Emperor or not was something that could not be verified, and Zhong Miao Yi did not want to know.
Ban Qiu left after sitting at dinner time. He said that Su Zeyi might not be so busy at this time, if she saw Su Zeyi right away, he would personally escort him back.
Zhong Miao Yi had eaten an unprecedented amount of food to replenish her strength, so she was so excited that she was about to cry. Owner had given up on himself these past few days, and today, he finally saw some desire to continue living.
She couldn't say these words out loud, so she could only stand to the side and help with the food.
After he finished eating, Zhong Miao Yi waited for Ban Qiu to come over.
She was sure that Su Zeyi would definitely meet her, and also believed that Su Zeyi wouldn't reject her request.
She had to do this. In this world, she knew how to repay favors and favors. Zhong Miao Yi understood this very well.
As expected, Ban Qiu returned within two hours. He ran very quickly, although she was not panting, her forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat.
"Xiao Yi, follow me." She carried Zhong Miao Yi on his back as the carriage stopped right outside the entrance. Ah Jiu warned Ban Qiu to be slow and that she must bring Zhong Miao Yi back safely.
Ban Qiu nodded in agreement. He was afraid that the bumpy journey to Zhong Miao Yi would cause him to slow down a little.
After getting on the carriage, Ban Qiu did not hire a carriage driver, but instead, drove the carriage by herself. He did not say much, she only said that Su Zeyi would let her pass.
Zhong Miao Yi held the embroidered handkerchief tightly in her hand, telling herself that shshemust calm down later on, no matter how much she hated Su Zeyi, he could not even lift a finger.
Ban Qiu moved quickly, the walls of the imperial city were gradually nearing, there was someone guarding the door, the moment they saw Ban Qiu, they would let him in, and initially, the imperial palace did not allow carriages to enter, but now that they were not prepared, they did not have any rules to follow.
Ban Qiu stopped the carriage at the plaza outside the Great Assembly Hall. The long thousand flights of stairs were too slow for him to walk, and he had to carry the Zhong Miao Yi up as well.
Su Zeyi waited for her for a long time, but he was unable to even take a look at the imperial reports.
He was a little anxious, he did not expect that the Zhong Miao Yi would actually also say that he wanted to see him.
When he saw the Zhong Miao Yi appear in his field of vision, Su Zeyi was momentarily stunned.
Ban Qiu put down the Zhong Miao Yi, gave some instructions in a low voice, and then left.
Zhong Miao Yi did not take his advice to heart, nor did she care too much about what was hidden in Su Zeyi's gaze. She steadily walked forward, and didn't even make any salutations, and directly asked: "Will you kill them?"
Su Zeyi squinted his eyes and fell silent for a while.
It seemed that they did not have the time to do anything about it. The nervousness in Zhong Miao Yi's heart finally subsided a little: "Don't kill them, is it okay?"
"If you cut the grass by its roots, you can eliminate any future troubles." Su Zeyi said softly and sighed, "Miaoyi, don't force me."
Zhong Miao Yi smiled and took a step forward. "I want that child in Concubine Xian to live."
Su Zeyi frowned.
"Su Zeyi, you owe me." She touched his stomach, his eyes somewhat moist. "I want that child to live. He doesn't know anything, so don't kill him."
Su Zeyi was still silent. Logic told him that neither the crippled monarch nor the child in the consort's stomach could stay.
But Zhong Miao Yi was standing right in front of him. She had felt wronged for so many days, and it was only for an innocent child.
She wasn't wrong. That child really didn't know anything. As long as he gave the order, no one would let him know what had happened.
"Miaoyi, let me think." This was his biggest step back. He could not make such a decision on a whim.
Zhong Miao Yi came here today because of a conclusion. How could she let Su Zeyi think about it?
She quickly pulled out a dagger from her sleeve and placed it against her neck. There was still some distance between her and Su Zeyi, so she took two steps back and said fiercely: "Leave that child here."
Su Zeyi was shocked, the moment he moved, Zhong Miao Yi increased the power in her hands, and seeing that her neck was bleeding, Su Zeyi finally compromise, "Good! I promise you! "
"Put it down, put the knife down." Su Zeyi took a deep breath. He knew that Zhong Miao Yi was not joking, she would really make a move.
She didn't want to live any longer.
Receiving Su Zeyi's nod, Zhong Miao Yi put down the dagger and coldly said: "Don't lie to me. Otherwise, I have ten thousand ways to die.
Give her a reason.
She had so much to do.
Su Zeyi sighed helplessly, and took two steps back, he then said solemnly: "Alright, I promise you, that child can survive, but, my mother, the virtuous wife, must die."
