"I want to turn the Bronze Gate into a tool for me. Anyone who has the intention to resist will be accused of treason!"
"Your Majesty, as a result, people in both the government and the public are in panic, which is really not good for the Emperor. After all, future history books will describe the Emperor as a tyrant." Luo Nian didn't know what happened to the emperor's expulsion? Why did he use all possible means to do so? He didn't cherish the hard-earned throne at all.
"I have made up my mind, you go to the Ministry of Rites to handle the matter of canonizing the queen first." Zhu Minglie said decisively and said no more.
"Yes, general... take the order." Luo Nian reluctantly agreed and exited the Golden Palace.
The fourth master has changed. In the past, he was just cold and ruthless. Now, he is cruel, wasteful, and unpredictable, making it increasingly difficult to understand.

"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict:
I heard that the universe is positioned, and love has the ability to carry everything. The sun and the moon gain the sky, and they are the symbol of eternity and eternity. However, internal governance is the foundation of human relations, and Huiyin is the foundation of Wanghua. Maodian Shixun, Yi Zhang Siju, consult On the 17th day of the lunar calendar, you drove away the Qin family, Zhongxiang Xun clan, and upheld the famous religious lineage. In the first year of the wedding ceremony, she was married to Wei Fang.
Seventeenth Princess Tassel has a gentle nature, virtuous and dignified character, gentle conduct, beautiful appearance and gentle manners. Her appearance and virtue are deeply won by the Holy Heart. Now she has been summoned to the palace by the Holy Grace and canonized as a queen, and she is regarded as an example for women in the world.
Granted!"
What? Canonized as queen? Liusu was stunned.
"Princess, please accept the decree." Li Dequan handed the imperial decree to Liusu and said.
"I cannot accept this decree."
"This, princess, if you don't accept the emperor's imperial edict, you are rebelling against it. Princess, please don't embarrass me. This... this is something that will kill your head..." Li Dequan said with great embarrassment.
Liusu didn't speak for a long time. She looked at the imperial edict in Li Dequan's hand and frowned——
"Give it to me!" After a moment, Liusu took the imperial edict from Li Dequan and went straight to the imperial study.
"Princess...Princess, the emperor is discussing matters with the ministers. No one is allowed to trespass..."
"Fourth brother..." She ignored the guards' obstruction and ran all the way to the imperial study. When she rushed in, she saw several ministers bending down and standing in front of Zhu Minglie, apparently discussing important political matters.
She couldn't help but stop, holding the imperial edict in her hand, and stood there.
Hearing the sound of her coming in, Zhu Minglie looked up at her lightly and continued talking to the ministers. The hand holding the memorial couldn't help but clenched.
"Your Majesty, the rice warehouse in Yangzhou was burned down recently. We should send an imperial envoy to secretly investigate the matter to see if there is any betrayal of the party."
"Quick report, Mr. Yang, this time I am ordering you to serve as the imperial envoy to secretly investigate the incident of the burning of the rice warehouse."
Looking from Liusu's perspective, Zhu Minglie was wearing a black dragon robe with gold threads, sitting at the head of the ministers, exuding a cold and arrogant aura.
He is like Satan in another world, keeping people away thousands of miles away, only allowing Liusu and Qiluo to get close.
Liusu waited for almost half an hour, and the ministers took orders and left one after another. At this time, Zhu Minglie put down the memorial in his hand, looked at Liusu, and said two words calmly -
"Is something wrong?"
"I...I resist." His gaze was so cold that she couldn't help but tremble, her voice trembled, and she took two steps back involuntarily.
Yesterday's situation comes to mind.
Zhu Minglie replied, "It doesn't work."
"……Why?"
"Why are you resisting the order?" he asked, his eyes sharp, making her unable to hide.
"I……"
"Are you really just doing it for the world and the people? Since I don't care, what do you care about?" He pressed forward step by step, not allowing her to retreat.
"I...I want to spend my life with the one I love." Liusu turned away and said, holding on to the hem of her clothes with her fingers. She was not sure how angry Zhu Minglie would be aroused by her words.
.
Sure enough, Zhu Minglie pulled her closer, with strong anger all over his body, and the eyes in his eyes were extremely cold,
"The one you love?" A faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, staring at her face closely, and said word by word, "In this life, what other choice do you have besides loving me, my dear Liusu."
"Fourth brother, what do you want to do?" she asked in a trembling voice. His love was so strong that it took your breath away.
Zhu Minglie stretched out his hand to lift her small, round chin, and said firmly every word, "I want to keep you by my side. In this life, we will live together and die together."
Liusu only felt that his heart was severely shocked - "Fourth brother, I'm sorry, I...can't accept this imperial decree, six years ago...In fact, everything stopped at the moment when you disappeared six years ago, and we are now
, is a brand new me, I...I can't pretend to love you, I...can't do it."
Zhu Minglie clasped Liusu's shoulders with both hands and fell into extreme madness. He shouted at her, "Why, why did you break into my world that night and let me fall in love with you, and now you are so cruel?"
Reject me; when you made me feel no longer so lonely, you left me again and told me that you couldn't even pretend to love me! Why?! Why!!"
At this moment, Liusu saw a trace of tears in Zhu Minglie's eyes, and her heart was trembling, bleeding slightly, and hurting——
She shook her head, panicked tears falling from the corners of her eyes——
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to break into your world. When I face you like this, there will always be a surge of sadness from the bottom of my heart. I don't know what is wrong, but I know that if I accept it, it will be against me.
Sincerely, I'm sorry..."
"do not say sorry."
"sorry……"
"I told you not to say sorry!! Are you deaf?" Zhu Minglie gave Liusu a hard blow and pushed Liusu down so far that Liusu stumbled and fell to the ground——
Zhu Minglie stretched out his hand to help her, but when he reached halfway, he pulled it back——
He said word for word, "I really want to kill the person who loves you!"
"Fourth brother..." She burst into tears.
"Needless to say! I can even get the throne. You don't think that I really can't kill the prince and Thirteen, Liusu! I even assassinated my father, let alone two brothers. Don't challenge my patience anymore.
, I am not willing to wait even for a moment, the canonization matter will proceed as usual, unless..."
After hearing this, Liusu clenched her hands and looked at him, with a bloodthirsty look in his eyes——
"Unless you want to see brothers fighting each other and blood flowing like rivers, otherwise, just cooperate obediently, put on your phoenix robe, and climb the Linglong Tower with me. From now on, your mother will honor the world."
"..."
"Go down! The etiquette officer will teach you the rules later. I hope everything goes well on the day of the canonization."
Zhu Minglie said, waving his hand to let Liusu go away.
Liusu stood for a while, looked at his back, and said feebly, "I'm leaving." Then he turned around and left step by step.
The shadows of the two people were getting farther and farther away in the darkness.

In order to obtain first-hand information, Zhu Minglie announced a month-long anonymous impeachment in the morning.
It’s only been two days, but I’ve already received a lot of anonymous impeachments!
Zhu Minglie was looking through the muddy memorials submitted from various places in the imperial study room, with a pair of condensed face and a frown on his face!
When he saw the contents of one of the anonymous memorials, he threw the memorial to the ground with a bang. It directly pointed at his tyranny and ideological imprisonment!
"This slave deserves death! Your Majesty, please calm down..." Li Dequan, who was waiting on the side, was so frightened that he quickly knelt down, prostrated on the ground, and kept kowtowing. The other waiting maids also knelt down one after another, all of them shivering on the ground.
Zhu Minglie's brows furrowed even more tightly.
"Father...Father..." At this moment, a little princess wearing a white cigarette shirt flew in happily like a butterfly, her voice was so crisp and sweet, and she followed her step by step and grew up with her.
The little book boy Wuyazi.
Seeing Qiluo, Zhu Minglie's condensed and sinister face relaxed a little, and he smiled slightly.
"Qiluo, you're here."
Xiao Qiluo didn't notice the tense atmosphere in the imperial study room at all. She held a purple morning glory in her hand, stood in front of Zhu Minglie, raised her head, and said seriously -
"Father, look at this flower, is it beautiful?"
Zhu Minglie bent down, took the flower from Qiluo's hand, put it on the tip of his nose and breathed gently, a faint fragrance lingered in his breath——
"It's so beautiful, but no matter how beautiful this flower is, it's not as beautiful as my Qiluo." Zhu Minglie said dotingly.
"Of course." Xiao Qiluo raised her head, pouted, and said proudly. While speaking, her eyes couldn't help but glance at the child Wu Yazi.
"Haha, my father likes you like this." Zhu Minglie laughed loudly, and Xiao Qiluo also laughed.
Smiling, she noticed that the eunuchs and maids kneeling on the ground were all huddled together nervously——
