This smell...

It was exactly the same as the smell she smelled in the imperial study that day!

Sure enough, what happened that day was not a coincidence!

Someone deliberately used that smell to induce Yue Lin's illness.

Then today...

Jiang Zhimiao looked at Yue Lin quickly.

Sure enough, the smell had just begun to spread, and Yue Lin's expression had already changed.

He was still barely able to control it now, but his expression was already a little irritable.

"Cheng Long!" Yue Lin suddenly stood up and looked at Cheng Long with cold eyes.

Cheng Long was not afraid of being happy.

That's right.

That's right!

Things were finally on the right track!

"Every word I say is for the Emperor, for the Great Yong Dynasty, and for the people of the world! Even if the Emperor is angry, even if the Emperor wants to kill me, I will tell the truth!" Cheng Long said loudly, holding his neck.

"Okay, okay." Yue Lin was so angry that his eyes turned red, "You want me to kill you, right? Do you think I dare not!"

Cheng Long said loudly, "Your Majesty, take my life! But, my heart for the country and the people, the heaven can bear witness."

"Okay, okay." Yue Lin showed a tyrannical smile at the corner of his lips, "In this case, then..."

The court officials trembled in their hearts.

Absolutely not!

Why did the Emperor suddenly get angry at this time?

Although Cheng Long's intentions were unclear, killing him in court was the worst way to deal with it.

Even if the Emperor was originally right, killing someone would become unreasonable.

But, they have all seen the Emperor when he was angry.

The Emperor at that time was completely different from his usual self.

It’s not that they didn’t try to give advice, but when the Emperor got angry, he never listened to their words.

He didn’t listen!

That’s what he had to say!

Prime Minister Jiang gritted his teeth and was about to stand up to stop Yue Lin.

"Your Majesty." At this time, Jiang Zhimiao suddenly spoke.

Yue Lin, who was still angry, suddenly seemed to have regained some consciousness. He looked at Jiang Zhimiao in a daze.

Jiang Zhimiao smiled at him, "Your Majesty forgot to hold my hand."

The court officials were stunned.

What was this?

Showing affection in the court?

When the Emperor was angry, showing anything was useless. This couldn’t be persuaded at all!

It’s over, today was really over.

Just when everyone was lamenting,

Yue Lin, who would not recognize his relatives when he got angry, responded very obediently, "It's my fault that I let go of the Empress's hand just now."

Yue Lin sat back and gently held Jiang Zhimiao's hand.

Then—

His expression became completely relaxed, as if the previous tyranny had never existed.

Everyone: "???"

Prime Minister Jiang: "???"

Was this okay?

Could this really work?

Usually, what they fear most was that the Emperor would suddenly get angry. The Emperor was usually quite a wise ruler, but once he got angry, he instantly became a tyrant.

When they went to court, they were also trembling, fearing that the Emperor would suddenly get angry one day.

But...

The Empress just said lightly that he forgot to hold hands, and the Emperor was instantly coaxed?

What did the Empress say in her heart just now?

The Empress said that she would only come for one day?!

How could this work!?

As an empress, she should attend court every day!

Yue Hua looked at Yue Lin who suddenly returned to normal, and a trace of disbelief flashed in his eyes.

Last time, his plan failed.

This time, it failed again.

This time, he saw it clearly.

Yue Lin suddenly returned to normal, but it was because of Jiang Zhimiao? What did Jiang Zhimiao do to Yue Lin? Could it be that she was also proficient in pharmacology?

When Yue Hua was in doubt.

Jiang Zhimiao showed an expectant expression.

[Wow, it's gossip time!]

[Sure! Today is so awesome. I took a quick look and found that all three of the gossips were related to Cheng Long. Great, you are really an old classmate with a story.]

Jiang Zhimiao read it with interest.

[The first gossip.]

[Thirty years ago. Fei Yushi, who was in charge of the Supervisory Office, was found to have correspondence with Luo Country in his mansion, and was suspected of collaborating with the enemy. Therefore, he was ordered to be executed by the previous emperor. In fact, there was someone else who was collaborating with the enemy. Cheng Long was originally from Luo Country and was sent to the court of the Great Yong to lurk. In order to become a censor, he used a trick to frame Fei Yushi. Later, because of his meritorious report, he succeeded in becoming a censor.]

Jiang Zhimiao paused and couldn't help but look at Cheng Long who was kneeling there with a righteous face.

[Is this actually a spy from Luo Country? A spy from Luo Country, who served as a censor in Dayong for thirty years, and retired and returned home in glory?]

[No wonder he has a reputation for being upright. This guy is here to be executed. If he is executed for giving advice, it will just tarnish the reputation of the late emperor. He didn't expect that the late emperor could endure it, and endured it all the time, and didn't kill him until he retired. Now, he is going to use the same trick on the Emperor again.]

Jiang Zhimiao sighed. The faces of all the court officials changed.

The big case thirty years ago, the older ones among them still remember it vividly.

In that big case, it was not just Fei Yushi who suffered. At that time, the whole court was reshuffled.

And the driving force behind all this was Cheng Long in front of them?

No, no, no.

Cheng Long alone couldn't do this.

There should be someone secretly cooperating with him.

Prime Minister Jiang looked at Cheng Long, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

This man must die, but he couldn't die in the court!

The people of Luo Country have been officials in Dayong for decades. It's not known how many things Cheng Long had done behind the scenes!

If he was arrested and interrogated carefully, perhaps they could follow the clues and catch all the other spies!

If this matter was not handled properly.
