Ji Xiaolan: Kill Qianlong at the beginning

Chapter 553 Mo Li's Instigation

Emperor Gaizhang coldly said, "Now you care about my health? If you care about my health, come to my palace to steal things."

Mo Li's expression was solemn, not feigned.

Emperor Gai Zhang took a deep breath.

At this moment, one of the ministers collapsed.

Several more ministers subsequently fell from grace.

Heshen's hand holding the canopy trembled slightly.

Emperor Gai Zhang glanced at him and said, "He Shen and Mo Li stay. Everyone else, leave. Those who have collapsed, go see the imperial physician."

Everyone remained motionless.

Emperor Gai Zhang continued, "What? Do you still intend to defy the imperial decree? Get out."

Everyone said in unison, "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty." They all got up and left the scene, some carrying away the minister who had fainted.

As Wang Xi was leaving, he turned back and glanced at Emperor Gaizhang.

Now only Mo Li and He Shen remain in the room, along with a few guards.

Heshen's hand holding the canopy trembled again.

Emperor Gaizhang said, "The sun is blazing! Alright, alright, stop pushing yourself."

Heshen thanked the Emperor and handed the canopy to a servant.

Emperor Gaizhang said, "Do you two have any appropriate phrases in mind?"

Mo Li, who was kneeling, gently shook her head.

Emperor Gaizhang glanced at Heshen and said, "Very well, let's start with me. Let's use the sun as the theme. The sun rises high, one after another. Mo Li, it's your turn."

Mo Li thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, I cannot think of anything."

Emperor Gaizhang said, "No, I must find a solution."

This……

Hey, there is.

Mo Li said, "Two strokes, three strokes, four strokes, five strokes."

Emperor Gaizhang blinked and said, "Heshen, it's your turn."

Heshen couldn't figure it out.

Emperor Gaizhang told him to speak quickly.

Heshen had no choice but to say, "Six, seven, eight, or nine."

Emperor Gaizhang said, "Hey, why are you all counting rods here? You're out of ideas, aren't you? You can't continue. Mo Li, please continue."

When he said the second sentence, Heshen nodded slightly.

Mo Li said, "Each stick pierces my heart."

Emperor Gaizhang complained, "Such a bland and tasteless couplet, and he calls himself a Grand Scholar? It's like a doggerel."

Mo Li said, "Your Majesty, this is what I think in my heart. Why is it so difficult?"

"What's so difficult about it?" Emperor Gaizhang asked.

Mo Li continued, "It's so difficult to do good deeds, even the imperial examination system is in such a mess. Your Majesty, I truly feel sorry for you. Your Majesty."

Heshen said, "Your Majesty, let Moli and I stay here in the sun. You should go back to the palace to rest."

After saying that, he knelt down.

Emperor Gai Zhang said, "I will not return to the palace until you can give me a clear explanation." He then let out a long sigh.

Mo Li lowered her head.

……

Inside the room, Wang Xi was waiting for someone.

At that moment, someone opened the door, walked in, and quickly closed it again, saying, "Master."

Wang Xi asked, "His Majesty..."

The apprentice said, "The Emperor? The Emperor is still standing in the sun."

At this moment, Wang Xi was terrified and gestured for his apprentice to leave with trembling hands.

The latter opened the door, went out, and then closed it again.

Wang Xi walked to the table, pulled a small box in front of him, opened it, and found it contained poison that he had prepared in advance.

He swallowed the poison and then picked up the teapot to drink a few mouthfuls of tea.

The poison packaging paper fell to the ground.

……

Wang Xi knelt down before Emperor Gaizhang and said, "Your Majesty, please don't hold back anymore. I'll tell you, it was this damned servant of mine who did it."

Emperor Gai Zhang roared, "Who ordered this?"

Wang Xi looked at Heshen, then at Mo Li, and slowly said, "Lord Mo, I'm sorry."
