The precious sword in her slender hand hummed softly, as if its spirit was protesting being used for this occasion.
But in a flash of snow, a white blade swung out in a sword "flower", like a poisonous snake, towards the throat of Yungui.
It seemed swift at first glance, but it was actually intentionally slowed down. Everyone let out a unanimous cry of surprise, but they were all weak and timid, and no one dared to step forward to stop him.
Like a flowing light, it made the fierce sun on the horizon lose its color. This sword forced back the gloomy darkness of the entire hall.
The man from Yunnan and Guizhou let out a loud shriek, and to his surprise, he was no longer on the verge of collapse. He jumped up from the 'bed', dragging his silk undershirt, and dodged around barefoot.
"Yunnan people are just overthinking, after a few bouts of speculation, they suddenly see blood and think it's the difficulty of miscarriage ---- only when people are in a critical situation can they truly find out that they are safe and sound."
Chen 'Lù' smiled coldly and teased, "Yún Guì Rén, you jumped up with great agility. It's clear that your body is healthy, truly a joyous occasion to congratulate."
Yun Lao was greatly embarrassed and shocked, at this moment she couldn't even pretend to be weak and hide under the bed again. She was in a daze, letting the maid help her put on her outer cloak, and for a while, she stood there stupidly.
"The Queen has always been kind-hearted... Now that the people of Yunnan and Guizhou are at peace, you should be happy..."
Morning 'dew' smiled coldly, a leisurely and composed demeanor. (, 16K, updated fastest).
The queen and her confidant exchanged glances, their expressions changing, gritting their teeth in silence.
Yuanyu quietly listened, Junye's face had turned iron-green.
"Harem struggles are nothing new, no need to get angry..."
Morning dew comforted him.
"What's with all these thoughts, several times of wild imagination......these two venomous 'women', you're still giving them a way out..."
Yuanyu sighed and said in a tired and cold tone, but with a hint of guilt.
"The Empress is after me, Yang Bao Lin and I were just a little closer when we encountered this disaster ---- if we expose them, can the Emperor issue an edict to depose the Empress?!"
Chen 'Lu' met his gaze and asked directly, without any reserve.
"What you said is right, I cannot abandon her..."
The emperor's mouth was bitter, as if he had a green plum in his mouth, thread by thread, but it was a deep and profound pain.
"These past few days, I have been working day and night for the sake of the vassal kings, but in the inner palace, there is still no one who can put my mind at ease... I truly have a good empress!!"
He thought of the events at the front court and felt even more depressed in his heart. He lowered his head, as if he couldn't bear the exhaustion.
A pair of jade-like hands adjusted the golden crown on his forehead, and that gentle warmth made him look up in surprise.
Morning dew stood facing the wind, smiling and gazing at him with a hint of a smile.
"Why this dejected attitude?"
She raised an eyebrow and said, "A real man, when faced with such things, should not sigh and lament. In this world, how many people can be wealthy and carefree, with a virtuous wife and filial children?"
Her sharp remark was like a wake-up call, shocking the emperor out of his depression.
"He smiled wryly and said: 'I thought you would comfort me?'"
Chen 'Lu' gave him a sideways glance and said, "If you want someone like 'Hua' to understand you, Your Majesty can go find her in the harem. There are many women there who know how to offer gentle comfort..."
"But none of them is you..."
Yuanyu gently gazed at her and reached out to tidy up the disheveled hair on her temples.
"They are all not the people I care about."
The two walked and talked, having long since left the carriage behind. The attendants saw that the two were walking shoulder to shoulder, with a harmonious atmosphere, and smiled at each other, but only followed from afar without drawing near.
At this time, the green shade is dizzying, the sunlight shines on people, slightly scorching, and the gentle breeze makes people's hearts also quietly feel hot. In Cining Palace, the empress has an unhappy face, sitting under the empress dowager, quietly listening to her teachings.
The empress slowly drank a mouthful of milk curd, coldly smiling as she scolded: "I told you before, this matter is too reckless, like child's play. You didn't listen to my words, and now that things have ended in such a big fiasco, how do you plan on wrapping it up?!"
The queen forced herself to argue: "Chen Fei just said that Yunluo was thinking too much, and after a few guesses, she mistakenly thought it was a miscarriage..."
The empress dowager looked at her, resentfully saying: "You're still so naive... if this gets out, who wouldn't know the intricacies behind it? You, as the imperial consort, will be ridiculed to no end..."
She sharply asserted: "I never expected you to become a useful person, how much 'energy' have you wasted fiddling around in the harem?! Yet you don't know that the situation in the court is changing and my Lin family is in danger!"
The queen was startled and stood up, trembling with voice: "Mother...?!?"
The empress dowager looked at her and said in a low voice: "Do you know why the vassal kings are lingering in the capital and not leaving?"
The queen was slightly shocked, thought for a moment, and said: "Is it to fight for more fiefs?!"
"A woman's opinion!"
The empress dowager sneered, staring at her niece, and coldly said: "They think the emperor's throne is too high, they want to lower it a bit!"
"What?!"
The queen was so shocked that she felt cold all over her body.
