Ji Xiaolan: Kill Qianlong at the beginning

At this time, Emperor Gai Zhang was discussing Mo Li with the officials.

The Emperor, sitting on a chair, said, "Although Mo Li has made many great achievements since entering the cabinet, such as defending the border and solving cases...but he contradicted me today. He contradicted me, so I must kill him. If I don't kill him, it will not be enough to calm the anger in my heart. I want to kill him, and none of you here can try to dissuade me. No one should try to dissuade me."

Throw the folding fan onto the table.

He picked up the tea bowl and took a sip of tea.

The officials said nothing.

Seeing this, Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Well, since you don't even care about our long-time colleagues and are too lazy to speak up for him, I have no choice but to kill him. I issue an order: at 3:30 AM, behead him immediately."

Heshen smiled slightly, with an unfathomable look.

At this time, someone outside the door shouted, "The Queen Mother has arrived."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Gai Zhang said nervously, "Hey, how did you alarm the old lady?"

……

The swordsman was using chopsticks to pick up some food for Mo Li, saying, "Sir, please try it."

Mo Li put it in his mouth, chewed it, and hummed.

"How is it?" asked the executioner.

Mo Li said, “I’m old.”

The executioner was stunned.

Mo Li continued, "You're old. Before you put the diced chicken into the fire, you have to simmer it with flour and white pepper for a while to let the flavor absorb. If it's not cooked for a long time, you'll know it's not a Dongxinglou dish. Come and drink, come and drink."

The executioner said, "Okay, the wine is here, please take your time."

As he spoke, he handed a bowl of wine to Mo Li's mouth.

Mo Li sniffed it, hummed, and said, "Lotus White. Not bad, here." He started to drink.

"How is it?" asked the executioner.

After taking a sip, Mo Li immediately spat it out.

The axeman wondered what was going on, looking puzzled.

Mo Li said, "It's diluted with water."

The axeman said, "No."

Mo Li said, "Giving fake liquor diluted with water to a dying person, where is your conscience?"

The executioner nodded.

Mo Li continued, "Spill it, splash it, splash it."

The executioner said, "As you say. Pour it out." He poured out the entire bowl of wine.

Mo Li said, "Come on, have some food."

The executioner said "Master Mo" and was about to give him some diced chicken.

Mo Li said, "Change it, change it."

The executioner said, "Okay, okay, okay." He handed another dish to Mo Li.

While picking up some food for him, he said, "Master Mo, I have something to tell you."

Mo Li's face was expressionless as he said, "Speak."

The executioner said, "You don't look like a dying man at all. The way you are now, with people outside watching you while I serve you mouthful by mouthful, makes me look like a dying man."

"Really?" Mo Li laughed heartily upon hearing this, and said, "Since I don't look like someone who's going to die, then I definitely won't die. Think about it, is there any wise and sage ruler in this world who would allow a minister who gave him honest advice to die?"

The axeman said, "You have a point."

Mo Li asked him to pick up some food again.

……

"Never mind, I shouldn't bother you guys since you're busy with your work, but this is urgent and I can't take care of it. I heard the Emperor wants to kill Mr. Mo."

The Queen Mother sat down and spoke slowly.

Emperor Gai Zhang also sat down and said, "Um... This matter is still under discussion and has not yet been finalized. How did you wake up? Is it the letter reported by Du Xiaoyue?"

Du Xiaoyue bowed and said, "Xiaoyue reports to the Emperor, this is the letter Xiaoyue sent to the Empress Dowager, begging her to save someone from the sword."

Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Oh, that's strange. Who sent you this letter? Could it be faster than my express horse, which can travel 800 miles per hour?"

Du Xiaoyue said, "Xiaoyue cannot tell the emperor about this either. Because this is also a crime of deceiving the emperor."

Seeing this, the Queen Mother said, "Alright, alright, get up."
