After saying that, Chen Lingyi knelt down with a plop, and then... kowtowed madly.

She used quite a bit of force, and the first impact left a purple bruise on her forehead, which stood out against her delicately made-up face.

"boom!"

The second blow drew blood, then the third, the fourth...

"enough!"

"boom!"

"I've said enough!"

"boom!"

"I told you to stop knocking, are you disobeying my order?"

Emperor Tianqi quickly walked to Chen Lingyi's side, squatted down, and pinched her shoulders with both hands to stop her from self-harming.

The eyes that were originally filled with anger calmed down when they saw the blood on Chen Lingyi's forehead.

"Royal sister, you poisoned me, and you did it by taking advantage of my mother. I am not pursuing the matter, which is already a great favor."

The poison that Chen Lingyi gave to Emperor Tianqi was in the portrait of Li Cairen. When Emperor Tianqi touched the portrait in memory of his deceased mother, he would be poisoned little by little, and his body would become weaker and weaker.

"Qingyi did something wrong, so it's only right for the emperor to blame Qingyi, but what if the emperor did something wrong?"

The blood on the forehead spread out like a blooming seductive flower, making Chen Lingyi's face look a little weird.

"Uncle saved our lives, but you want to do something to him?"

Emperor Tianqi smiled. As expected, the person who knew him best in the world... was his imperial sister.

He had been thinking about getting rid of the King of Yan since he ascended the throne.

The aristocratic families must be eliminated, and the Prince of Yan, who controls a faction and 200,000 northern border troops, must be eliminated even more!

What's more, the Prince of Yan had already had connections with the former commander of the Imperial Guard. Although they acted very secretly, they still left traces when they were suppressing the Lin family rebellion.

"Royal sister, the princes who hold a large number of troops are on good terms with the commander of the imperial guards around the emperor. Which emperor in history would dare to tolerate them?"

Chen Lingyi was stunned. Her uncle and Huo Qingyun... were they actually friends in private?

"I originally wanted to test my uncle with the southwest war, but he took the initiative to bring it up, so I took the opportunity to transfer my uncle to the southwest."

"When the Imperial Uncle and Huo Qingyun help me conquer the Western Frontier, the army will bring the news of their 'unfortunate deaths in battle', and I will make the entire Daliang remember their military exploits."

When Chen Lingyi suddenly learned that Chen Ji and Huo Qingyun had a past, her eyes became much clearer. Although Emperor Tianqi's worries were somewhat reasonable, she could not bear to watch Chen Ji die.

"But he is my uncle, the uncle who has lived with us since childhood. He will not take away your kingdom, and you don't have to take his life!"

Chen Lingyi's angry and powerless roar was extremely ridiculous in the eyes of Emperor Tianqi.

"Supreme power is what every man in the world dreams of."

"As the ruler of Daliang, if I want to keep my throne, I must hold power firmly in my own hands. How can I allow others to sleep beside me?"

"This time, the emperor's uncle will definitely die. Emperor Sister, you should let go of the obsession in your heart as soon as possible!"

Although he did not ask explicitly, Emperor Tianqi could probably guess that Chen Lingyi drugged him just to take advantage of his weak body to show concern and warmth to him, and then persuade him again to stop the Prince of Yan's marriage.

Many times, Emperor Tianqi really didn't understand why his sister cared so much about his uncle's marriage? Why did she value his uncle so much?

He knew that his royal sister was very close to Jiang Bin, and many of the poisons he had were obtained from Jiang Bin.

With the protection of the eldest princess, the emperor's sister, the Jiang family has become the next Lin family, far ahead of the many aristocratic families in Kyoto.

This made him think more. Was it because his sister trained the Jiang family to become the next Lin family, and to check and balance the emperor's uncle from inside and outside, in order to prevent him from touching his uncle?

If this is true, then his sister has really put a lot of effort into her uncle!

Emperor Tianqi really thought too much about this. Chen Lingyi was simply too deeply involved with Jiang Bin and could not be separated.

Chen Lingyi has been protecting the Jiang family over the years, and the Jiang family has provided Chen Lingyi with money, poison and information. This secret transaction began when the Crown Prince Wende was murdered.

It seems that the Jiang family was betting on both sides during the fight for the throne.

Supporting the King of Qi openly and funding Chen Xuanrui's sister secretly, no matter who becomes the emperor in the end, the Jiang family will not lose.

……

Jiang family study.

"Luo Xiaoran has already left the city gate of Kyoto. Patriarch, should we take advantage of this opportunity..."

Jiang Sheng didn't finish his words, but made a gesture of wiping his neck.

Jiang Bin was rarely reading the storybook. He supported his head with his right hand and waved his left hand towards Jiang Sheng.

"The road from Kyoto to the North is so long, there is always an opportunity to take action. Besides, I am not the only one who wants her dead."

"Is the master talking about Princess Qingyi?" Jiang Sheng asked.

"Yes! If you were to say who in the world wants Luo Xiaoran to die the most, it would be Chen Lingyi." Jiang Bin said affirmatively.

There was a hint of surprise in Jiang Sheng's eyes. In his memory, the head of the family was used to leaving room for maneuver when speaking and rarely made such a definite conclusion.

However, since the head of the family did not explain the reason for this conclusion, he could not ask proactively. This was the rule.

"The King of Qi was poisoned to death by Princess Qingyi. It's such a pity for all the hard work the head of the family has put in over the years." Jiang Sheng continued.

"It's not a pity!" Jiang Bin continued to wave his hands, "I have supported him for so many years, isn't it also supporting myself?"

"Emperor Tianqi is making frequent moves now. If I still control the huge Qi Wang Party, I will be the next one to be dealt with."

"It's better to sell it well first to show your loyalty, and then work slowly in the future."

"The King of Qi must have guessed what I was thinking and was panicking!" Jiang Bin raised his eyebrows at Jiang Sheng with a teasing look.

"For so many years, he has been relying on me. If I withdraw and ignore him, won't he become a rootless duckweed?"

"That's probably why he's desperately trying to kill Emperor Tianqi, so that he can become valuable."

"It's a pity that this dragon-slaying operation was unsuccessful. It's also because Emperor Tianqi was not destined to die. The poison was actually neutralized!?"

When it comes to this, Jiang Bin couldn't help but sigh that Emperor Tianqi was very lucky. He had encountered such a low probability, otherwise there would be someone else sitting on the throne now.

"It's not unfair that the Prince of Qi died. It was just his bad luck. The poison was put on Emperor Tianqi, but it still didn't kill him! If Emperor Tianqi doesn't die, he has to die. No problem!"

Jiang Sheng couldn't help but laugh. "No wonder the head of the family always says that fate comes first, luck comes second, and ability comes third. No matter how great your ability is, it is nothing compared to the fate given by God."

"That's right!" Jiang Bin gave Jiang Sheng a thumbs up, "However, God will not give any good luck to someone as ungrateful as the King of Qi."
