Chapter 360
Chen Liao knelt on the ground straight, with a serious and serious face, staring down at the complicated patterns on the ground.

After Tao Yi returned home, she told him everything that happened in the palace.

He didn't expect that Wei Ziyuan also learned the trick of knocking mountains and shaking tigers. Before he knew it, he had grown into a real emperor, and he was no longer the fourth prince who had to rely on the Houfu to seize the heir.

In fact, Chen Liao had already noticed that after Wei Ziyuan ascended the throne, he promoted many newcomers and confidantes, and the Hou Mansion looked at the scenery, but in reality it had gradually become Wei Ziyuan's thorn in the side.

So he entrusted someone to tell Chen Ziyu that since she has become a harem empress, she is a member of the royal family, and she can no longer leave the palace at will like before.

"Misunderstand?"

Wei Ziyuan repeated, his voice even more puzzled, "What did Gu misunderstand?"

Chen Liao raised her head, her eyes were full of sincerity, "The Hou Mansion has always been loyal to His Majesty, without any second thoughts, in the past, now, and in the future."

He kowtowed heavily to Wei Ziyuan, "The people I stayed in the palace before were all to monitor the third prince. After His Majesty ascended the throne, I got confused for a moment and forgot to remove them. I didn't think about it later, which caused Your Majesty to misunderstand." Yes, it's my fault."

Wei Ziyuan stared at his official hat, and suddenly chuckled, "So that's how it is..."

"Your Majesty, these ministers have been by your side all these years, working conscientiously and not daring to relax, for fear of betraying His Majesty's trust and trust. Unexpectedly, there will still be mistakes. It is really wrong for His Majesty to doubt you."

Chen Liao was full of anger when she spoke, and she didn't hide her eyes from Wei Ziyuan, "I came to the imperial study today to plead guilty."

The voice fell, and there was no response for a long time, and the needle could be heard in the imperial study.

Chen Liao knelt on the ground, quietly waiting for the person above to speak, while Wei Ziyuan just stared at him for a moment, playing with the newly polished walnuts in his hands.

"Ah--"

After a while, Wei Ziyuan's chuckle suddenly broke the dull atmosphere.

He got up, walked around the desk and walked to Chen Liao, and stretched out his hand to help him up, "What are you talking about, Lord Hou, it's just a trivial matter, I won't take it to heart."

He sighed, "I can see what the Hou Mansion has done these years. It is loyal or treacherous, and I have a decision in my heart."

Chen Liao's eyes dimmed, and she got up following his strength, staggering a little because she knelt for too long, "Thank you Your Majesty, I will remove these people in a while."

"no need."

Wei Ziyuan shook his head, his expression finally softened.

He patted Chen Liao on the shoulder and said with a smile, "I have already ordered them to be dealt with. Don't worry, Lord Hou, why would Gu doubt your loyalty? Anyone who might make the monarch and his ministers renounced, Gu will not stay." .”

His voice was not loud, and his tone was not serious, but it sounded like a heavy hammer to Chen Liao's ears, making him a little dizzy.

There were people who he had carefully cultivated for more than ten years, and they were loyal to him, and Wei Ziyuan killed him as soon as he said it, which was clearly a warning to him, if he tried to put his hand into the palace again, the next person might be he.

But now, he not only wants to kill, but also kills well.

"Your Majesty is wise."

Seeing Chen Liao drooping his eyes, Wei Ziyuan's eyes were full of sneers, "It's not worth Master Hou making a special trip to such a trivial matter..."

Before the words were finished, there was a muffled thunder outside, and the sky turned dark in an instant, and a storm was about to come.

Wei Ziyuan glanced out the window, "It's going to rain soon, I'll ask Ge Zhang to take you back in a while, don't delay the state banquet tomorrow, Lord Hou."
