My husband is a traitor

Chapter 371 Upheaval, arrest

At this time, Lin'an City, in the imperial palace.

"Qi Rui!" Qi Lei rushed all the way into Renshou Palace, pushed away all the palace people who blocked him, walked aggressively to the door of the Queen's bedroom, and threw open the bead curtain, "What the hell did you do!"

The palace servants knelt down on the ground, the little eunuch tremblingly came in from behind Qi Lei, knelt down and confessed, "Xiao... Your Majesty, this slave is incompetent, I can't stop His Highness Yu Wang..."

At this moment, Qi Rui just used the veil in his hand to gently wipe the horrific blood stains on the Queen's face.

The movements were gentle, like the gentleness and elegance that the gentle and elegant His Royal Highness Xiao Wang is used to.

If you ignore the moon-white and blood-stained costume.

He acted as if he hadn't heard the movement behind him. After a long while, after wiping off the blood on the queen's face and neck, he tucked the quilt for her and slowly got up.

Turn around.

When those eyes appeared in front of everyone, Qi Lei stepped back slightly, and saw the strangest side of Qi Rui.

The elegance is still the same, gentle but with a chill, like a puppet whose soul has been hollowed out, and the smile that hangs has no warmth.

Those eyes were empty and numb, and there was no end to them.

"Everyone back down." His voice was a little hoarse, and he raised his hand to signal the palace people to back down.

When only the two of them were left, Qi Rui's expression didn't soften, he just asked calmly, "Brother Wang, what are you referring to? Forcing the emperor to make me the new king or sealing up the imperial city to deal with the traitors? "

Seeing him admitting all this in front of him so openly, Qi Lei was heartbroken and helpless, his face was a little angry, "Sir brother! What's wrong with you! I know you feel uncomfortable, but you How can you force the father to take the throne and make him angry... Do you know that you are treasonous!"

"So?" Qi Rui took a step towards Qi Lei, with a nonchalant sneer on his face, "So you want to expose me? Or do you want to take this seat?"

Facing Qi Rui who was aggressive and had a big change in temperament, Qi Lei was speechless for a moment, his face turned pale, and then he was very angry, "You know I can't!"

If he wanted the throne, why would he come to him to argue?

"Since you don't know how, then don't hinder me!" Qi Rui's voice turned cold, he suddenly changed his name, looked at Qi Lei with an indescribable coldness, and then softened again, "Now, I only trust you, and you are still my good brother."

He stretched out his hand towards Qi Lei, that hand was gentle and generous, it used to hold Xiao Nianhua, but now its fingertips were covered with blood.Qi Lei's throat rolled, looking at this hand, he didn't speak for a long time.

After a long time, Qi Rui's hand was still stretched out, but Qi Lei shook his head, "You seem to be no different from Father Emperor—even, you are not much nobler than Rong Jue whom you hate."

Forcing the dying father to take the Zen position and killing him; beheading the alien party who refused to obey him;

Overnight, this third brother who was once so kind and gentle that even the ants on the ground would be soft-hearted and unwilling to hurt him, actually bloodbathed the palace, purged the court, and replaced his own power in the most iron-blooded way.

Sitting on the new emperor's seat in an instant.

Qi Lei thought, in the past, he always thought that Qi Rui was more than smart, but not ambitious enough, but now it seems that when Qi Rui is really ambitious and means, it is so terrifying.

"Don't mention him!" Qi Lei's mention of Rong Jue touched Qi Rui's minefield. The man who had a gentle smile on his face suddenly became frosty. He withdrew his hands and flicked his sleeves. Gritting his teeth, the sound of teeth grinding against the alveolar expressed his hatred and anger.

Rong Jue, it's Rong Jue again!
Qi Lei actually said that he was inferior to Rong Jue!

His eyes turned blood red instantly, Qi Rui's blood boiled, he pointed at Qi Lei, "You say one more word that disobeys me, believe it or not, I can take you into custody right away!"

"I didn't believe it at first." There was no smile on Qi Lei's tough face, even a little disappointed and lonely, he looked at such a violent and angry Qi Rui wryly, and said sadly, "Now, I believe it. "

"Your Majesty, please rest early." Qi Lei knew that he couldn't persuade this younger brother, and his heart ached, but there was nothing he could do. If he pushed Qi Rui too hard and angered him, then even he would be unable to rescue him Those clan ministers are gone.

He understands and loves Qi Rui's feelings, but he can't agree with his behavior, and he doesn't want him to make mistakes again and again.

Qi Lei left.

Qi Rui looked at the back of his only family member who left, and stood there like a statue. After a long time, he smiled coldly.

The laughter was like crying.

You see, after winning the country, it turns out that this is how I came to be a lonely family.

Even the most trusted person is no longer on his side.

Qi Rui looked at his blood-stained hands, and the fragility in his eyes faded away little by little.

After a while, his eyes returned to the depth and darkness of the night, and the endless abyss was dyed with a cluster of flames.

"But only when you reach a high position can you do whatever you want—"

To get back everything he lost.

The entire Lin'an city was filled with a gloomy and tense atmosphere.

The emperor passed away, and the new emperor came to the throne. The next day, it was announced that the empress had died following the previous emperor, and the culprit was the prime minister Rong Jue who had escaped from the capital.

The new emperor ascended the throne and quickly changed the court. Those who followed Rong Jue in the past were arrested and demoted.The once benevolent King Xiao, after assuming the throne, quickly wiped out the dissidents in the court with thunderous force, and the method he used was extremely bloody and brutal.

Immediately afterwards, it was announced to the world that they would go all out to hunt down and arrest the criminal Rong Jue, and even offered a reward of up to [-] gold.

In this way, no matter the courtiers or ordinary people or the people in the Jianghu, they are all eager to try, and they are very excited about the sky-high reward.Regardless of whether it was someone who had a grudge against Rong Jue in the past or who had no grievances, they searched and hunted him down with all their might.

At this time in Prince Yu's Mansion.

Qi Lei closed the door and didn't see anyone, he didn't go to court, and he complained to the outside world.Wen Rensheng looked for him several times, but after failing, he had no choice but to find Gu Minglan who was placed in the other garden in the south of the city.After explaining her intentions, Gu Minglan agreed straight away.

Then Gu Minglan brought Wen Rensheng to the door.

The turmoil of the past few days has made Gu Minglan, a girl who is about to marry, aware that something is wrong.Regardless of what happened in the palace, Rong Jue became a wanted criminal, and Jiang Linlang followed him to leave Lin'an.For this alone, she couldn't sit idly by.

Worried about Jiang Linlang's safety, even if Wen Rensheng didn't ask, she would find a way to discuss countermeasures with Qi Lei.

"I don't see you." Qi Lei waved his hands without thinking when he heard the servant report that a distinguished guest had come to the door, and sat alone under the almond blossom tree drinking wine.

The boy sighed, "Then go and reject Miss Gu, just say that His Highness is not here."

"What? Wait!"
