Phoenix Palace

Meng Qianrong had been in a trance for the past few days and kept thinking about Hua Chenfeng. She couldn't find him even after searching for a few days, which made her unable to relax her frown.

"The king has arrived …" The fact that these people had never appeared in the Phoenix Nest Palace shocked everyone within the palace.

Xiao Lian ran into the room in a hurry and shouted to Meng Qianrong, who had a worried expression on her face, "Mistress, quickly, the King is coming!"

"What …" Who did you say came? " Meng Qianrong suddenly heard this and couldn't react for a while.

"Your Majesty, the king has come up. He's going to enter soon!" Little Lian repeated, quickly waiting for her to lie down.

Just as he lay down to take a few breaths to calm himself, Helian Lie's figure appeared in this unfamiliar room. Little Lian knelt beside the bed with her head lowered, not daring to make a sound, much less look the king in the eye.

Seeing that the king had entered, Meng Qianrong threw back her blanket and got off the bed. She then said, "Your consort greets you, your highness."

Helian Lie did not approach her. He chose to sit on the wooden bench beside the table. This kind of woman was too dirty …

"Queen, you have been ill for several months, why have you not recovered? "Whether or not the imperial physician is useless, it seems like the imperial physician is too useless. There's no use in keeping him!" Helian Lie looked at her coldly. He stared at her somewhat flustered face and spoke deliberately.

She forced a smile on her face and raised her head to meet his cold and merciless eyes, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. In fact, your concubine is not sick anymore, she has only been in bed for a long time, and her body is still weak. I hope Your Highness can forgive them, regardless of what happened with the Imperial Physician."

"They? Who are they? Isn't there only one Imperial Physician Hua who has been seeing the queen? Could there be others? " Helian Lie drew closer and closer to her heart. It was as if those piercing eyes of his had already seen through her.

Between the lines, Meng Qianrong could roughly guess that the disappearance of Morningwind must be related to the king. Perhaps the matter between them had already been exposed, and the reason why the king came this time was to denounce them?

"Your Majesty, why have you come to the Phoenix Maiden Palace today?" She gathered up her courage and asked.

Helian Lie didn't expect her to dare to ask him this. That was good as well. It seemed that she had already mentally prepared herself. She stood in front of her and looked down at her condescendingly. "Stand up. I'll take you to a place alone."

"Yes …"

The sedan chair left the Phoenixcloud Palace and walked for about an hour before stopping. Meng QianRong got off the sedan chair and looked around at the unfamiliar environment. This should be a abandoned courtyard in the palace, so why did the king bring her here?

The White Tiger and Black Turtle had appeared behind Helian Lie at some point, leading the Queen into the courtyard. They came to a rock garden and touched a mechanism, and a stone door suddenly appeared on the rock garden.

Meng QianRong followed behind Helian Lie into the underground prison. The white tiger and the Black Turtle protected them from the front and back, and they opened a stone door. The stench coming from inside made Meng Qianrong cover her nose.

People? Thinking about this, Meng QianRong suddenly opened her eyes wide. Could this person be the morning breeze that had disappeared for many days?

"Queen, come in!" Helian Shan had already walked in. He saw that she had frozen in place behind him, and he urged her to hurry up and come in.

The more she took a step forward, the faster her heart beat. When she was one step behind Helian Lie, she could clearly see the person hanging his head in the vat, his face was deathly pale, there was not a single trace of blood on his face, it was as if all the blood in his body had dried up.

"Queen, do you know who he is?" Helian Shan took a good look at her expression of fear and sadness.

Meng QianRong stared at the man in the bar with her watery eyes. Her mouth twitched as she said with difficulty, "Why, why is he like this?"

"Why, does this answer need to be answered alone? The queen knows better than she does, doesn't she? " Helian Shan did not reveal the face of a demon as she had imagined. But at this moment, he was thousands of times scarier than a demon.

As she said that, Meng Qianrong's body fell to the ground. Hot tears fell from her eyes. It was her. She was the one who caused Morning Wind to die …

Helian Lie looked down at her, his mouth still spouting vicious words, "Don't think that I don't know anything, I already knew about your matters. However, you guys are getting bolder and bolder, and you still dare to stay in the Phoenix Maiden Palace. You've truly eaten the guts of a leopard and dirtied the harem of me!"

"Your Majesty, chenqie has nothing to say. Your Majesty, please kill chenqie …" If she did not beg for mercy, the king would not let her off. Fortunately, Chen Feng and he were a ghost couple on the Road to River Styx, so they hoped that Chen Feng had not gone far yet.

"Hahaha …" Wanting to die, it's not that easy. Do you know how he died? Do you want to see how he looks like now? " A light shone in Helian Lie's eyes. He would let her know what would happen if she betrayed him.

With a look at White Tiger and Black Turtle, the two of them walked into the wine vat. However, the two of them were lucky enough to not touch the vat. They forced Hua Chenfeng's body out of the wine vat with their inner strength and laid him on the ground.

Seeing Hua Chenfeng's dead body, Meng Qianrong almost fainted. She was sick!

Who would have thought that the king would be so cruel? He was simply a freak …

"Queen, how is it?" Helian Zhang looked at her, who was on the verge of fainting, and the corner of his mouth unexpectedly curled up into a smile.

"You, you're not human …" Meng QianRong looked at his smile and cried out.

"Gu is not a human, then what are you all? An adulterer? " Helian Lie asked as he looked at her in amusement.

"Yes, we did the wrong thing, but how can you be so cruel to him? You are the ruler of a country, how can you be so cruel!" As Meng QianRong accused him, tears kept rolling down her cheeks.

"The ruler of a nation, you've finally thought of these words now. Have you ever thought that you were the mother of a nation?! The mother of a nation actually did something to confuse the imperial harem and commit adultery with the imperial physician. Tell me, how do you think Solitary Reformation will punish your Meng Family? The crime that you have committed is a crime that involves nine families. " The more Helian Lie spoke, the more vicious he became. He had to thank her, this good queen, for giving him an excuse to catch that old fox, Meng Shihai, in one fell swoop.

A family of nine...

Meng Qianrong had always thought that she would be the one to bear the consequences of her mistake, but she never expected that it would involve her entire family. She was speechless now. She sat on the ground stunned, looking at Hua Chen Feng who was a few steps away.

At this moment, the Azure Dragon's voice came from outside the stone room. It seemed that he had brought Meng Shihai here. Meng Shihai didn't know what had happened, but since the King had said so, he could only follow the Azure Dragon.

Walking into the prison cell, Meng Shihai looked at the torso on the ground. It was actually that poor brat Hua Chenfeng. Looking at the king and his daughter who had fallen on the ground, could it be that they …

"This old official greets Your Majesty!" Meng Shihai could vaguely sense what was going on, and hoped that it wasn't true.

"It's good that you're here, Meng Qing. Without you here, I really can't make up my mind." Helian Lie's face was solemn. One could not see any expression on his face, but Meng Shihai's eyes had long ago broken out in a cold sweat.

"This old subject doesn't understand the meaning behind His Majesty's words? What exactly happened here? " Even though he had roughly guessed it, he was still playing the fool.

Helian Shan couldn't stand the stench anymore, so he turned around and walked out of the cell, followed by the rest of the people. Meng Shihai walked over to his daughter and helped her out of the cell.

This underground prison was very big. There were several cells; one was the torture chamber, while the other was used to imprison prisoners. Hua Chenfeng's corpse was in one of the cells.

This place was like a great hall, and the stairs leading up to it led to the abandoned courtyard. The Azure Dragon had found a chair for Helian Shan to sit on, and was standing with the White Tiger and Black Tortoise respectively on the left and right of Helian Zhang.

"Oh beloved Meng, the common saying is that the family is ugly, but you are the queen's father, so this matter naturally involves you as well. I believe that you are not unfamiliar with the owner of that corpse. I have directly told you, your good daughter, the queen of the Gu family, has committed adultery with the imperial physician in Lou Lan's imperial harem. Helian Shan threw this question to the side of Meng Shihai and asked him to share his opinion.

Normally, in the imperial court, he would come to participate in everything, so he was naturally involved in this matter.

Meng Shihai broke out in a cold sweat as he heard Helian Shan's words. Qian Lian was actually committing adultery with that poor guy in the imperial harem. He might not believe other men, but why was it Hua Chenfeng?

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, please have mercy. It was this old subject who taught my daughter so well. Please have mercy, Your Majesty …" His old face straightened, and he also snot and teared up as he cried in front of Helian Lie.

Helian Shan and his three bodyguards looked at him. They did not expect that he, Meng Shihai, would also have such a side to him. What a rare sight!

She looked at her father, whose face was full of wrinkles, then suddenly knelt on the ground and begged Helian Lie while crying, "Your majesty, please spare your chenqie's family. Your chenqie will bear the consequences of her own mistake, your father and mother are already old, your majesty, please forgive them!"

"Bang, bang, bang …" Meng Qianrong knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Helian Shan, begging for mercy. She blamed herself for not being able to bear the loneliness in her room and for not being able to control herself before the morning breeze.

She would rather die in exchange for her family's safety. Her forehead was cracked, blood dyed the ground red, and she was like a venomous tiger that did not eat its prey. Although Meng Shihai wanted to use his daughter to stabilize his rights, he still lost his blood.

He went up to stop his daughter's actions. He knew very well that the king had other intentions in calling him here. His daughter had committed a crime that involved nine families, and she had caused the harem to commit adultery.

"Your Majesty, this old man is willing to resign and return to his homeland. In the future, this old man will no longer interfere in the affairs of government. I just hope that Your Majesty can forgive my daughter's life!" Wasn't this the king's goal? He wanted to protect the reputation of the Wang family, and at the same time, he wanted him to lose all of his rights.
