Astute Princess: Married to be the Empress Novel - Chapter 145

Chapter 145 Belief In The Heart
All the countries in the world had already submitted to Ye Lan and Huyan Mingshuo. There was only one small country left. The Tianshui Kingdom was still struggling to hold on. Although the Tianshui Kingdom had yet to submit, Ye Lan’s army had already surrounded the Tianshui Kingdom. However, they had already surrounded it for a long time, but they had only surrounded but not attacked.

Therefore, anyone with a bit of brains could guess that the Ye Lan army was probably waiting for Huyan Mingshuo to arrive to compete with the Tianshui Kingdom. After all, there was still Mu Lingfeng in the Tianshui Kingdom, and Mu Lingfeng was the main culprit who caused the chaos in the world. He was also the current king of the Southern Region.

After he finished speaking, Huyan Mingshuo suddenly stopped and said to him with an embarrassed expression, “Well, you’re right. Then Mu Linghua may really know how to remove the Gu worms on Concubine Li and the Second Prince. I really want to leave the Great Chen Kingdom as soon as possible, but now I can’t hand Mu Linghua over to you. I’m also lacking in strength.” On the way into the palace just now, this palace was suddenly surrounded by a group of unruly people. Just as this palace was fighting with that group of unruly people, someone actually took advantage of the chaos to snatch Mu Linghua away. ”

Huyan Mingshuo deliberately paused for a moment when he said this. Seeing that Emperor Da Chen’s expression had changed, he couldn’t help but chuckle in his heart. He was anxious. Who told you to neglect this palace and make you worry for a while longer? This could be considered a small punishment for you, right?

The Great Chen Emperor’s expression became gloomier and gloomier, and there were faint signs of anger. Huyan Mingshuo said slowly, “Fortunately, this palace’s Crown Princess is smart. She sent people to secretly stare at Mu Linghua when we entered the Great Chen Kingdom.”

At this moment, our people have already found out the whereabouts of Mu Linghua and the mob, However, at this moment, my people have already left the Great Chen Kingdom. “This palace has no one to use. It is simply impossible for us to attack this group of people. Therefore, we can only trouble Emperor Da Chen to send people to attack. Besides, this is something that happened in your Da Chen country. Your Da Chen country also has a responsibility that cannot be shirked. Besides, this matter can only be considered justified if your country’s people come forward.”

After hearing Huyan Mingshuo’s words, The Great Chen Emperor’s expression finally improved. He immediately adjusted his mentality and said, “Your Highness, what you said is extremely true. Since these people dare to cause trouble in our Great Chen Kingdom, it is a challenge to our Great Chen Emperor’s authority. Naturally, I will not tolerate them. I will send people to encirclement and suppress them. I will also trouble His Highness the Crown Prince to send someone to guide us.”

Seeing him say this, Huyan Mingshuo answered straightforwardly, “Yes, that’s natural.”

After he finished speaking, he instructed the youth behind him, “You can bring the person appointed by Emperor Da Chen to where Mu Ling Hua is staying.”

When the young man heard Huyan Mingshuo talking to him, he immediately bowed to him and said, “Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince, I know.”

Afterwards, he retreated behind Huyan Mingshuo and stood quietly. He waited for Emperor Da Chen to send someone out. He hurriedly completed his mission so that he could return to Tianyi Villa as soon as possible. A minor character like him was not allowed to participate in this important event in the court.

When Emperor Da Chen saw this, he nodded at the young man and then shouted with a serious expression, “Where is the Royal Hidden Guard?”

As soon as he finished speaking, four figures flew in front of him from four different directions. The moment they landed, they knelt down on one knee and replied, “The Royal Concealed Guard of Heaven, Earth, Profound, Yellow. See you, Your Majesty. May I ask what orders the Emperor has?”

Emperor Da Chen looked at the four people kneeling in front of him. The four of them were also direct descendants of the Da Chen Imperial Family. According to their seniority, the two of them were his royal uncles and Xuan Huang were both his cousins. However, in order to maintain the stability of the Da Chen Imperial Family, they had no choice but to hide in front of others. For someone like them, they deserved the respect of everyone in the Da Chen Kingdom.

Thus, he stretched out his hand and helped the four of them up one by one.

Then, he pointed at the young man and said to the four of them, “Pass on my decree. Imperial Wei Yin will immediately follow this person. You must bring Mu Ling Hua back. As for those commoners, kill them without delay.”

Since Imperial Concubine Li had already cut off all ties with Nanjiang and had fallen to such a state, then he no longer had any worries. He had long wanted to deal with these scouts in Nanjiang, but because of Imperial Concubine Li’s face, it was not good for him to act recklessly.

Now that Concubine Li had told him the truth about her situation, Only then did he know that Prince Nanjiang had been using the Loyalty Gu to harm Concubine Li, causing her to spend the past few decades in fear. Moreover, Mu Linghua had actually planted the Concept Gu in his son’s body, causing his temperament to greatly change, and his reputation to be damaged as a result. At present, he was even more unconscious.

The more Emperor Da Chen thought about it, the more furious his anger became. Thus, he did not hesitate to issue this order.

Seeing Emperor Da Chen’s angry expression, the four of them stopped talking and immediately replied, “I will obey your orders. We will immediately gather people’s hands and follow this person.”

As they spoke, the four of them instantly disappeared. The reason why the hidden guards were hidden guards was because they could instantly conceal themselves, making it impossible for others to guard against them. Thus, when their voices fell, they also disappeared. Even the disciples of the Heavenly Villa who had returned to deliver the message were also taken away by them.

For such a scene, Huyan Mingshuo and Fu Yingran were already fine, Because the royal family of each country would specially nurture a batch of hidden guards to guard the safety of the imperial palace. They would also deal with some shameful matters on behalf of the emperors of each country. Their purpose was to maintain the stability of the royal family, and the two of them were direct descendants of the royal family, so they were not unfamiliar with such matters.

However, Nalan Jinhong was different. Although he was also born in the Ye Lan royal family, he was still born from an outer family. He was not a direct descendant, so he was unable to come into contact with these confidential figures. Therefore, when he saw these people, he guessed in his heart that the Ye Lan royal family also had such a group of hidden guards. Was he also directly under the orders of the current Emperor?

Then, could it be that the Yelan Kingdom’s royal hidden guards attacked his father’s death back then? Thinking of this, there was a faint estrangement in his eyes as he looked at Huyan Mingshuo.

Huyan Mingshuo noticed the strange look in his eyes. He immediately knew what he was thinking, He probably remembered the death of the Crown Prince Palace of the previous dynasty. After all, it was his Father who framed his father together with Imperial Concubine Yan at that time, and he had the Crown Prince Fu Manor set ablaze overnight. The people of the entire Crown Prince Manor did not even leave a complete corpse capital behind. Ordinary people would not be able to do such a ruthless method.

Facing such a thing, anyone would inevitably have doubts. Now that he, Nalan Jinhong, had personally seen the existence of the Royal Hidden Guards, it was understandable for him to have doubts in his heart.

However, outsiders didn’t know that these royal hidden guards weren’t ordered by everyone. They needed to be commanded by the country’s monarchs and reserve monarchs.

Thus, he walked to Nalan Jinhong’s side. He patted him on the shoulder, He said to him, “Don’t think, It’s not what you think, The Ye Lan royal family does have hidden guards, But not everyone can command them, Only the current Emperor and Crown Prince were qualified to see them, At that time, I, Father, was nominally just a concubine prince and was unable to come into contact with the Royal Guards. Therefore, I can assure you that the death of the Imperial Uncle was definitely not ordered by the Imperial Family of Ye Lan. In my estimation, that incident was most likely caused by the people of the Southern Xinjiang. Only when the Imperial Uncle dies can the Southern Xinjiang support me in hatching Father and ascending the throne. ”

Two years ago, when Emperor Yelan’s ident. I.ty was revealed to the world, Huyan Mingshuo had already revealed Nalan Jinhong’s ident. I.ty. I.ty. Immediately, Emperor Yelan named him king beside Huyan Mingshuo. His ident. I.ty was only inferior to Huyan Mingshuo, and his name was recorded in the genealogy in public, allowing him to inherit the previous dynasty’s Crown Prince’s bloodline.

Emperor Da Chen had also reigned for many years, He also had some understanding of the royal families of various countries, Back then, he had heard that the Crown Prince’s Mansion in Ye Lan had been reduced to ashes overnight. Now that Huyan Mingshuo addressed him as Nalan Jinhong, he immediately knew his identity. He instantly felt compassion for him. He thought that his identity had been confirmed with great difficulty. He really couldn’t bear to see him suffer a mental injury.

After Huyan Mingshuo finished speaking, he also said, “His Highness the Crown Prince is right. As for the situation of the Royal Concealed Guards in Ye Lan, I am not very clear. However, as far as the Royal Concealed Guards of our Great Chen Kingdom are concerned, only I can give them orders. Even the Crown Prince of our country is unable to command them in the slightest.”

Because the missions they performed were all quite special and could be said to be absolutely confidential to the royal family, they had very high requirements in terms of selection.

First of all, you must be the descendants of the royal family. Then, you must be absolutely loyal to the royal family. The four people you just met, two of them are my royal uncles, two are my cousins, and the other members are my brothers or nephews. Therefore, the royal hidden guards are not ordinary guards. Their identities are very respected. “The current Crown Prince is still their junior in terms of seniority, so before he ascends to the throne and becomes Emperor Da Chen, he cannot give any orders to the hidden guards of the royal family.”

After he finished speaking, he also looked at Nalan Jinhong with a loving expression, as if he thought he was an elder.

After listening to their words, Nalan Jinhong’s expression finally improved. He then looked up at the two of them and said awkwardly, “So it’s me thinking about the left. Hearing what you said, the knot in my heart that has been there for so many years has been removed.”

All these years, I have always thought that the matter of the Crown Prince’s Mansion was done by the Ye Lan royal family, and because of this, I have hated the Ye Lan royal family for many years. Now that I have heard your words, I know that everything is not as simple as I imagined. ”

Yeah, all these years, This matter had always been a lump in his heart, He hated the Ye Lan royal family for years, But now someone told him, It wasn’t what he thought. Everything was wrong. The barrier that had stood in his heart for many years instantly collapsed. At this moment, he felt an incomparable emptiness in his heart. It was as if his faith of many years had been pushed to the point that he instantly lost the direction of his struggle. He could only stand there blankly.

Huyan Mingshuo saw his dumbfounded expression and knew that his heart would definitely not feel good at this moment. If a person hated someone or something for many years, after he was suddenly relieved, the spiritual pillar that had been supporting him would collapse. Therefore, in order for Nalan Jinhong to regain his composure, he had to set another goal for him.

So he said to him, “Brother also don’t think too much, Back then, the Emperor’s Uncle had indeed died strangely, At that time, it was Imperial Concubine Yan. King Nanjiang had always wanted to support his people at Yelan to ascend to the throne, So as to achieve his ambition to control Yelan. At that time, my father was raised at the knee of Imperial Concubine Yan, and he was the legitimate son of Imperial Concubine Yan. Therefore, they must want to support my father to ascend to the throne. If my father wants to ascend to the throne, he must first get rid of his uncle. Therefore, I estimate that most likely, this matter was caused by the people from the Southern Region.

The elder brother only needed to relax. “We must take revenge for this. After we capture Mu Lingfeng, I will definitely bring him to the tomb of the emperor’s uncle and use his head to pay tribute to the emperor’s spirit. However, the remnants of the southern border are still at large. We still need brother to help me clean up the remnants of the southern border. We absolutely cannot let what happened back then happen again.”

Huyan Ming’s words were like a slap in the face, After hearing this, Nalan Jinhong’s gaze slowly began to focus. His arrogance returned to his body. He reached out and patted Huyan Mingshuo and said, “Hmm, you’re right. Father’s enmity is sworn. All of this was caused by Prince Nanjiang’s ambition. This debt should be settled with them.”

Then he looked at the others. Seeing that everyone’s eyes were filled with pity, This was also the last thing he wanted to see. From childhood until now, he had seen this kind of gaze the most. However, this was not what he wanted. He wanted to change everything through his own efforts. When he wanted others to see him, it was a gaze filled with reverence, not a gaze filled with pity. This gaze made him want to escape in an instant.
