In the court, civil and military officials were as quiet as a cicada and dared not say a single word.

No one expected this sudden disaster to turn into the current situation.

Sun Qing, Minister of Personnel, proposed to hold a ceremony to worship the heavens, pray to the world, to calm the wrath of heaven and to appease the people, and this could be spread, saying that the empress apologizes for guilt and asks God to pardon those innocent people.

Feng Zhi: Why did she blame her?

She was very dissatisfied, but the people were in turmoil and the world was in trouble. Even if she was frustrated, she had to swallow it.

Feng Zhi immediately ordered someone to prepare for a ceremony to worship the sky, and at the same time, he asked someone to transport food out of the city again to ensure that the people would not starve to death.

However, when the Empress agreed to sacrifice to heaven and apologize, the people suddenly became more and more violent and wanted the Empress to abdicate to suppress the resentment of the Heavenly Rebellion.

This is not just a rumor, but tens of thousands of people kneel at the gate of Longcheng, and several people even hit and died at the foot of the city wall, forcing each other to die, causing the empress to abdicate.

Feng Zhi sneered, "There is no need to sacrifice to the sky anymore." These people are greedy and ignorant."

He raised his hand and directly ordered to send troops to expel him.

When the disaster began, she immediately sent people to rescue her. Countless officials went to the disaster area. In order to provide disaster relief, the Ministry of Revenue emptied half of it, opened dozens of granaries, and asked herself that she had done what a king should do.

It's still called ruthlessness? Since they don't recognize her as the king and dare to gather people to force her to abdicate, it's no wonder she's ruthlessness.

In the blink of an eye, Feng Zhi has been the empress for so many years. Compared to her decisive behavior and the overall situation has stabilized, her methods have become much softer.

It is because she is too gentle that people forget that she was so cruel and ruthless that she was so angry that she could kill her relatives’ bloodline. Who wouldn’t dare to kill?

The minister quickly advised: "Your Majesty, the people are innocent. It was just that the malicious incitement of those who had ulterior motives that made them confused. Now that natural disasters are ahead, people's hearts are unstable, why should your Majesty beg about a group of foolish people?"

This is not a question she cares about or not, but a bullying too much.

"Floods are natural disasters, and sacrifice to heaven is imperative. To stabilize the hearts of the people and stabilize the country and the country. It is not worth fearing that the rumor and chaos of the people."

Feng Zhi sneered: "So, I'm so petty."

The people below shook their heads repeatedly and said they didn't dare.

Sacrifice to heaven is imperative, so let's sacrifice. She wanted to see what other tricks this God could do.

The platform for offering sacrifices to the sky was built in just one day. The next day, before dawn, Feng Zhi wore a dragon robe and brought all civil and military officials to worship the sky.

Jin Yanci also stood beside Feng Zhi: "The Imperial Heaven Supervision has calculated that the weather is very good these days, and there will never be rain. In the morning, the sky is full of red glows. As long as the sky is very beautiful and the rays are shining when His Majesty sacrifices to the sky, it proves that God has recognized His Majesty. Only by accepting God's recognition can the situation be controlled."

"Your Majesty will inevitably feel wronged this time. In two days, I will definitely give your Majesty justice."

I have already calculated everything and have a clear conscience.

This firm guarantee made peace of mind when Feng Zhi couldn't help but smile: "Yan Ci, are you coaxing me as a child?"

As if she was afraid that she would be wronged.

The two looked at each other, and Jin Yanci had no choice but to say: "I don't mean to despise Your Majesty, I just want to protect you."

"I understand." How could she not know his intention?

I climbed to the altar, burned incense, kowtowed, prayed to the sky, and after everything was done, the sky was bright, and the phoenix looked towards the sky, the sun rose eastward, and the rays of light were shining. Today is indeed a good weather.

Suddenly someone exclaimed: "Look, does that cloud look like a dragon?"

“Where is where?”

A group of people gathered together and pointed in one direction: "I saw it, it was indeed a dragon."

"The dragon head, dragon tail, and claws, it is still moving."

"Yes, there is still golden light on your body, it's simply spectacular."

"The dragon soars into the east, the rays of light are shining brightly, and auspiciousness comes from the sky. This is what God has recognized His Majesty."

"Long live your Majesty!"

Feng Zhi: "..." It's really nonsense.

The cloud was a long strip. How did they see it as a one-stop? It also said that it had a nose and eyes.

Feng Zhi turned his head and lowered his voice: "You did this too?"

Jin Yanci chuckled: "This is not what I mean."

Feng Zhi looked down and glanced at Shi Ce with a look up and smiled at her and pleased her. What else do you don’t understand?

He is the best at telling lies with his eyes open, and now he has led all the civil and military officials in the court.

"The heaven blesses the east, and the disaster will eventually pass."

"God blesses Dongxing, long live my emperor!"

The highlight is the following after offering sacrifices to heaven. Open the city gate, put food and clothing, and let people get involved among the people. While spreading the vision of offering sacrifices to heaven today, saying that God has forgiven the empress, and the disaster will soon pass, soothe people's hearts, and at the same time, we are waiting for an opportunity to catch those who fan the flames and provoke trouble.

The two rumors collided together. Seeing that the people were affected, some people naturally came out to continue lighting the fire, but they didn't know that some people had been waiting for them to fall into the trap and gained a lot in one morning.

Dozens of people were arrested, and after some interrogation, a bunch of behind-the-scenes envoys appeared.

Trace the root of the source.

"Hu Lin?"

"Your Majesty forgive me. The old minister is unaware of this matter. Please give me a clear explanation!" As soon as Taiwei Liang came, he begged for mercy, but Feng Zhi had not even reacted.

Shi Ce hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, this Hu Lin is the son-in-law of Liang Taiwei, not an official, but a businessman, and a distant cousin of Mrs. Liang."

Taiwei Liang said excitedly: "Your Majesty, Master Shi said it is good, but the old minister really doesn't know. Give him ten thousand courage, and he dare not be unfavorable to His Majesty."

Feng Zhi ignored his cry and suddenly asked, "Where is Feng Tianqi?"

Taiwei Liang choked in an instant, and he didn't even dare to let out his anger.

When the empress asked, someone naturally went to investigate. Feng Tianqi was deposed by Feng Zhi and demoted to a commoner. After she left it aside, she never thought of it again, but the place he was not far away.

If you don’t check this, I don’t know who this person is?

"Your Majesty, this is Feng Tianqi."

A fifteen-year-old boy was thin, thin, nervous and restless because he was trembling with fear when facing the empress and others.

"Is this Feng Tianqi?" Feng Zhi frowned. She really couldn't find any shadow of the past from this person.

After not seeing each other for many years, Feng Zhi could not draw a conclusion: "Go and find Liang."

The concubine Liang was demoted to the clan wife and kept carrying her in the clan temple with the ancient Buddha in the green lamp to cultivate one's character.

However, Liang died suddenly three years ago, and there is no evidence of death?

Interestingly, there was finally a decent conspiracy. After looking at the 'Feng Tianqi' in front of him, Feng Zhi asked, "Do you know who I am?"

Feng Tianqi stuttered: "You are Your Majesty...Your Majesty!"

Feng Zhi shook his head: "Wrong, I am your aunt. You were implicated by Liang before and demoted to a commoner. You have suffered over the years."

Feng Zhi reached out and touched his head, and smiled gently: "Don't be afraid, I can't eat people."

Feng Tianqi blushed and was so nervous that the corners of his clothes were almost torn to pieces by him.

Feng Zhi smiled: "Qiuluo, take him down to wash up, remember to be gentle, don't scare him."

Qiuluo smiled and said, "I obey the order."

Feng Tianqi was taken down. Jin Yanci grabbed Feng Zhi's hand and took a wet towel to wipe her hands from somewhere.

Frowning: "What to do?"

"Dirty, unknown origin, Your Majesty should stay away from him, so as not to be in danger."

It sounds like caring, but it seems to be with something else in it.
