You are asked to marry in place of the tyrant, and you allow the tyrant to send you to marry?

"Emperor, I have made up my mind, you don't need to persuade me anymore.

If you really want to leave the palace and travel for a while, I can allow you now."

"As for state affairs, I have already summoned Prince Changning back to the palace.

During your absence, I and Prince Changning will take care of everything for you, so you can just go and do your own thing."

What shocked Zhu Yunhao even more was that Queen Mother Qiao had arranged everything and even personally promised to let him travel out of the palace for a while.

The strangest thing is that she never mentioned abdication.

"Thank you, mother!"

Zhu Yunhao had no choice but to bow, thank the emperor and leave.

"Madam Tian, ​​go to the Heavenly Prison and give Concubine Rou a cup of poisoned wine and three feet of white silk! I don't want to see her again for even a second!"

"Yes, Queen Mother! I will do it right away!"

After Zhu Yunhao left, Queen Mother Qiao waved and called Nanny Tian forward, and explained all this to her in a cold voice.

After receiving the order, Nanny Tian left Ren'an Palace, took the poisoned wine and white silk, and walked towards the sky prison.

……

"I don't want to drink this cup of poison! I don't want this three-foot white silk!

I promise to help the emperor remove the poison. I will dig out my heart flesh to remove it. After 49 days, the emperor will be cured. "

When Nanny Tian stood in front of Du Zhirou holding the poisoned wine and a three-foot white silk, Du Zhirou collapsed instantly.

She never dreamed that Queen Mother Qiao was so eager to die and never mentioned the matter of detoxification.

Even though she had just told him the method to remove the poison from Zhu Yunhao, Nanny Tian was not moved at all and her face remained extremely cold.

"Really, I didn't lie to you! I can really cure the emperor's poison, I really can..."

Du Zhirou thought that maybe Nanny Tian no longer trusted her, so she acted so cold, so she made a solemn promise again.

But to her surprise, Nanny Tian didn't want to waste time talking to her at all. She tilted her head to glance at the young eunuchs, winked at them quietly, and raised the corners of her lips, with an extremely ferocious look on her face.

Soon, several young eunuchs held Du Zhirou down tightly.

"Let me go! I am Concubine Rou..."

"I want to see the emperor! I can really cure the emperor's poison..."

Du Zhirou couldn't move at all and struggled desperately.

But it was of no avail, and I was filled with panic.

Nanny Tian picked up the poisoned wine, handed the three-foot white silk to a little maid, and slowly walked towards Du Zhirou.

"Empress Rou, you have come to this day! When you took advantage of the discord between the Emperor and the Empress Dowager and secretly poisoned them, did you ever think that you would also end up like this?"

Nanny Tian pinched Du Zhirou's chin, glared at her fiercely and said with a half-smile on her face.

Seeing this, Du Zhirou was so frightened that her face turned green and her heart was about to jump out.

"Since you are about to die, I might as well tell you a secret. I believe that after you listen to it, you will never rest in peace in hell!"

When Nanny Tian said this, a hint of evil thoughts flashed across her slightly sunken eyes, full of playfulness.

Du Zhirou suddenly felt a little frightened and couldn't help but shiver and break out in a cold sweat.

"What secret?"

Du Zhirou tried to calm herself down and asked anxiously, her eyes filled with fear and anxiety.

"You have a younger brother named Du Zijun, who just came of age..."

Nanny Tian had long anticipated that Du Zhirou would be curious about this secret, so she spoke with a smile.

But before she finished her words, Du Zhirou quickly interrupted her:

"Shameless! What did you do to my brother?"

Du Zhirou instantly lost her composure when she mentioned her younger brother Du Zijun, who was sent away for foster care by her father and only brought home occasionally.

Back then, my father and grandmother were very uneasy when they saw the turmoil in Yecheng, so they decided to send Du Zijun, the only male in the Du family, to the old house in the countryside to be taken care of by Mother Lin.

Later, the entire Du family was executed, but Mother Lin and her younger brother Du Zijun were lucky enough to escape because they were not in Yecheng.

Only Du Zhirou and Du Qingwan who was far away in Loulan knew about this matter.

Du Zhirou has always been worried that Du Qingwan would repay kindness with enmity and betray her brother and Mother Lin in a fit of rage, so she is worried every day.

Who would have thought that before Du Qingwan returned to Daye, Empress Dowager Qiao actually knew all this in advance.

The most hateful thing is that she was about to die, but Nanny Tian actually used this to scare her.

"Your brother is in the hands of the Queen Mother now. If you don't drink this cup of poisoned wine, I will give it to Du Zijun."

Nanny Tian gave Du Zhirou a cold look, her face full of contempt, and the corners of her lips subconsciously rose slightly.

That smug look on his face immediately made Du Zhirou shudder, and her petite and frail body trembled.

"No! You can't do this! I drink, I drink!"

With her brother restraining her, Du Zhirou began to lose consciousness.

She murmured to herself, as if begging, or making a deal.

Nanny Tian had long expected that Du Zhirou would choose to drink the poisoned wine herself, so she breathed a sigh of relief and slowly handed the wine glass to her lips.

"That's right! Drink it, and your brother will live."

Nanny Tian tilted the wine glass with a smile and slowly poured it into Du Zhirou's mouth, with evil thoughts between her brows.

Thinking that only if she died, her brother could survive, Du Zhirou had no choice but to swallow the glass of poisoned wine with tears.

Sadness flows like a river and despair spreads wildly.

"Let my sister go! Let her go!"

At this moment, a young and handsome guy suddenly broke free from all the guards and ran into the prison crying and shouting.

Du Zhirou's consciousness was already blurred, but when she heard the familiar voice, she couldn't help but slowly raised her eyes to look over.

The next second, she completely lost control: "Zijun?"

"I have already drunk the poisoned wine, let my brother go!"

Without thinking too much, Du Zhirou pushed Nanny Tian away and rushed straight towards Du Zijun, feeling confused.

A bad premonition came over me, and I felt suffocated.

"Sister, I'm here, I'll take you home..."

Du Zijun raised his hand and gently stroked Du Zhirou's face, his face full of apology and tears in his eyes.

Du Zhirou bit her lips tightly, shook her head helplessly, and choked up:

"Zijun, my sister can't survive anymore, leave now!"

"Go away! This is not the place for you! Go!"

Du Zijun was so eager to take Du Zhirou away that he stood there stupidly, his face full of hot tears.

Seeing this, Nanny Tian couldn't help but sneered and said sarcastically:

"Let's go? Where do you think this is? Now that we are here, I will let you two siblings go together!"

After speaking in a stern voice, Nanny Tian raised her eyes and winked at several imperial guards, her face full of pride.

The few of them understood instantly and immediately arrested Du Zijun.

"No! Aunt Tian, ​​you just promised me.

You said that as long as I drank this cup of poisoned wine, you would let my brother go, you can’t go back on your word…”

Du Zhirou was extremely frightened. She used her frail body to tightly protect her brother and cried loudly.

But Aunt Tian didn't want to listen to her nonsense at all, and sneered:

"Release her? This is the order of the Queen Mother. You can go to the Hades and file a complaint against her! Clean up for me!"

Nanny Tian sneered and glared at Du Zhirou with disdain, then turned around quickly and prepared to leave.

“Swoosh—”

However, accompanied by loud whooshing sounds, countless darts suddenly shot in.

Everyone present, except Du Zhirou and her brother, died before they could even react.

"Don't kill us! Don't..."

Du Zhirou and Du Zijun were panicked for a while. They were so scared that they could only squat on the spot, holding their heads and crying hysterically.

"Get up! Do you still want to wait here to die?"

Suddenly, a familiar voice was heard.

Du Zhirou suddenly raised her eyes, her face full of disbelief.
