Xie Zheng, the counselor of King Ling Xiao Jue, was the person whom the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty advised him to kill.
Xie Zheng helps him seize his legitimate son and governs the country for him. It is his hidden blade and his shackles.
Everyone in the world knows that the prime minister of a poor family is contrary to the ideals of the iron-blooded king, and sooner or later they will turn against each other.
Until the night of the palace coup, Xiao Jue was seriously injured while protecting Xie Zheng. When he was about to die, all the ministers knelt down and begged: "Your Majesty, please kill Xie Zheng to avoid future troubles!"
Xiao Jue's blood-stained hand tightly grasped Xie Zheng's wrist bone, and asked with a hiss:
"Xie Zhaoyun, they said you would rebel... Will you rebel?"
Xie Zheng leaned over and whispered in his ear, a voice that only the two of them could hear:
"Your Majesty, if I want to rebel, the cup of tea you drank three years ago... Must have been poisoned."
