The First Empress - Chapter 100
Chapter 100 No Alliance
Outside Kun De Palace, Swallow murmured, and the scenery changed. However, the room felt as if it had fallen into an ice cellar, causing one’s entire body to be chilled. If this continued, then it was inevitable that Lan Sou Yu would not be able to display her ambitions. She had always been uneasy in her heart. The Empress was trying to suppress herself with a curve. She wanted to kill the chicken for the monkey to see, but she also wanted to control her words and deeds with certainty.
Thinking of this, Lan Sou Yu’s heart was filled with disgust.
Linglong raised her eyes and looked out of the window. However, the room did not feel the slightest bit of springtime. He couldn’t help but sweat on his back. Ji Zhuhua sat upright in front of him, raising his hand in an unusually luxurious manner. Linglong was slightly impatient when she heard those words that had some meaning.
It rained last night, and Haitang was thoroughly rouged by the rain. Linglong had been looking at the flowers outside the curtain and did not look back.
Ji Zhuhua’s summing-up speech was also over. In short, he could not form factions, offend the lower echelons, or not act according to his own grade, let alone stir up trouble.
Lan Sou Yu had originally planned to form an alliance of her own by forming a sworn alliance with the La Gang, but it seemed that everything could only end in failure.
At noon, the honeyed meeting finally ended with Ji Zhuhua’s slight sigh.
Linglong was the closest to Ji Zhuhua. Hearing Ji Zhuhua’s slight cough, she hurriedly poured Ji Zhuhua a cup of Anshen Tea. Ji Zhuhua took a sip of the Anshen Tea and said, “You know what’s going on.”
“Your Highness has said so much with great care. I will naturally keep it in mind. What the Empress said today makes me feel that there is still a long way to go. I will definitely continue to work harder.” Didn’t Linglong say that she was good at acting? Thousands of people, thousands of faces. Faced with this situation, they could only wear masks.
Ji Zhuhua nodded in satisfaction and looked at the concubines, “Let’s leave today.” After saying that, he looked down at the crowd and saw that their heads were slightly lowered, except for one-Lan Sou Yu.
Ji Zhu Hua coughed slightly, “Scatter. Today, I will warn all of you to keep your words in mind. If you do something unlucky one day, then I will definitely not show mercy.”
“This concubine knows–”
As she spoke, everyone stood up according to their grades. It was like a swallow walking through the forest. Looking at the empty space, Linglong thought that Ji Zhuhua still had something to say to herself, but to her surprise, Ji Zhuhua only smiled peacefully. “You did well today. You should go back early and don’t stand there anymore.”
“Thank you for your mistaken love, Your Majesty. I kneel down and greet you.” Linglong knelt down and walked outside.
Just as he walked outside, Chen Chongyi came over and held Linglong’s hand. “You’ve been wronged, so I’ll let you hold on. The Empress is really.”
Linglong used her index finger to lightly fall on her lips, “It’s unbelievable. There are so many people here, did big sister forget what the Empress meant just now?”
Chen Chongyi looked around. Just after the match ended, Sure enough, this place was not suitable for people to talk to each other, She pulled Linglong to the fake mountain stone in front of her and said, “Sister naturally can tell that the Empress is only using your mouth to suppress the arrogant Lan Sou Yu. Now that she can’t form factions and plant her own interests, and has also cut off Ning Yan Liu and the Ningguta clan’s wings, it seems that Lan Sou Yu’s mood is not that good.”
Linglong always felt that things weren’t that simple. Everything today seemed to be so logical, but there seemed to be a sense of power behind it. If it weren’t for the Emperor’s golden words, the Empress probably wouldn’t have told everyone what to do and what not to do.
“Sister always feels that it’s not that simple. It seems like the Emperor is behind this matter. Otherwise, just the Empress’ words alone will not be enough.” Linglong frowned, her eyebrows forming a small “Chuan” character.
She had always been inseparable from Chen Chongyi. Because Chen Chongyi wanted to help Linglong several times, Anything that was troublesome would help Linglong analyze it, But what happened today doesn’t look simple, There were so many people here that they naturally couldn’t discuss anything. They could only pull Linglong along and continue walking. As they walked, they said, “It seems that it’s better to be moderate now. They say that big sister is weak and incompetent. Big sister is not really weak, but big sister can’t compare to you. You guys are as beautiful as flowers and you have that running head. Big sister is just wholeheartedly on Baoluo!”
Of course, Linglong understood the mood of a human mother, so she grabbed Chen Chongyi’s wrist.
Chen Chongyi was shocked. She turned around and saw that Lan Sou Yu was like a ghost that hadn’t dissipated from the fake mountain stones. Ling Long and Chen Chong Yi couldn’t turn a blind eye to her and quickly lowered their heads. No matter what, she was still at the third rank.
Lan Shuyu seemed to be in a very bad mood. The contemptuous smile and coldness at the corner of her mouth were clearly revealed. Even her sleeves were trembling slightly from anger.
Chen Chongyi sneered and looked at Lan Souyu’s figure. “She’s really interested. She’s here to eavesdrop on our conversation. Fortunately, elder sister also left half of what she said to her mouth. Otherwise, wouldn’t the consequences be terrible?” Chen Chongyi frowned.
Linglong felt that Lan Sou Yu did not eavesdrop on her conversation with Chen Chong Yi. She held Chen Chong Yi’s hand slightly and said to the back of the rock, “Come out.”
Ning Yanliu and Ning Guta walked out one after another. The two of them trembled as they saw Chen Chongyi and Linglong. They hurriedly kowtowed, “This concubine greets Concubine Jieyu. I greet Empress Chongyi.”
Chen Chongyi was unhappy. Linglong smiled faintly, “You guys aren’t going back either. Are you guys going to watch the scenery behind you?”
As they helped the two of them up, they were terrified. The Ningguta clan remembered their sarcastic mockery of Linglong a few times ago. Now, their hearts were in a mess. They thought that Linglong would also be like a queen with an iron fist. They were thinking about the past. Who knew that Linglong would just smile and say, “Get up, don’t be rude. Go back.”
The Ningguta clan was slightly shocked. They remembered that they had just been reduced to a sixth-grade genius, so they had to find a big tree to enjoy the shade. Thus, they continued to kowtow. “Please protect me, Your Highness. I used to make too many enemies, but now I’m just scared.”
“Are you afraid too?” Chen Chongyi was unhappy and pulled Linglong away. Linglong was obedient and whispered, “Originally, it was a dragon set. At most, it wouldn’t help.”
Ning Yanliu also burst into tears and cried even harder than before in Kunde Palace. “This concubine requests that Your Majesty protect me as well. Your Majesty is now one of the few big red people beside the Empress. Who doesn’t want to curry favor with Your Majesty?”
Flattery was fine, but she actually said it flatteringly. Linglong was very surprised.
None of this was formidable, and even more formidable was at the back.
“Your Highness has a willow leaf on her feet. Let this concubine take it off for Your Highness.” As she spoke, the Ningguta clan had already crawled over like a loyal dog and removed the willow leaves from Linglong’s feet. Linglong retreated repeatedly, “No, no!”
Only then did the two of them dare not make a fool of themselves. The posture of lowering their heads made people feel ridiculous and funny. Of course, there was also a tiny bit of sadness. These were all self-inflicted consequences, so Linglong did not have much pity on them.
“Get up and talk.” Linglong turned her body away, not willing to be kowtowed to by these people.
The Ningguta clan and Ning Yanliu knew that Linglong was a person who spoke the truth, so they stood up.
“As long as you are right, I will naturally stand on the right side.” Before Linglong could finish her sentence, the two people beside her were already overjoyed. The Ningguta clan looked at Linglong happily and said, “Thank you, Your Highness, for your help. What do you need your concubines to do in the future? You just need to drive her through the water and fire.”
What Linglong hates the most is this kind of face. She can’t help but say, “But if you are wrong, I will definitely not protect you.”
After all, she did not have any friendship with Linglong. Moreover, judging her appearance like this made her feel a little annoyed. When Ning Yanliu heard Linglong say that she would help her, she was already satisfied. “Thank you, Your Highness.”
Linglong looked at the sunlight and said, “This palace is going back. You guys should take care of yourselves.”
“This concubine respectfully sends Concubine Jieyu and Concubine Chongyi.”
Before the two of them could walk away, Lan Sou Yu stood out from behind the rockery in front of them. Lan Sou Yu was so angry that her canthus was almost split open. There was an indignation that she wanted to eat Ning Guta and Ning Yanliu. However, after thinking about it, these two people were originally seeds that a toad could not hold onto the wall, so it was fine.
Linglong and Chen Chongyi walked over to Lan Sou Yu’s side. Chen Chong Yi said, “Just now, I said that we can’t form factions for personal gain, but these people have forgotten about it. Furthermore, they also want to drag my sister into the water. Such a person is completely unbelievable. My sister must be careful, and be careful of others!”
Linglong had already understood this logic and nodded, “Sister, I know. I’m just saying a few polite words.”
At night, Linglong looked out of the window at the three minutes of spring, but her heart was filled with worry. It had been a long time since Huiqi had come.
However, coincidentally, when she prayed silently in her heart today, Huiqi’s shoulders came. She almost thought that she was dreaming.
“Your Majesty, this concubine greets Your Majesty respectfully. Long live Your Majesty.” Linglong crawled on the ground of the golden brick. She could see that she had been much haggard recently. Huiqi arrived at the inner hall and waved his hand. Eunuch Lu had already retreated. Huiqi held Linglong’s hand.
The two of them arrived in the inner hall. Linglong was preparing to make tea for Huiqi, but Huiqi said no and handed over the snacks. Huiqi didn’t need them. Linglong was rather nervous. She didn’t know what to do.
“I won’t leave tonight.” Huiqi hugged Linglong. Linglong was a little embarrassed and smiled sadly. “Is the Emperor joking?”
“Jun Wu Jie, I will stay at Cloud Phoenix Hall tonight.” As she spoke, she arrived at the bedroom hall and said happily, “Your Majesty hasn’t come for a long time.”
“I already said that I have my own plans.” Hui Qi summed it up in a single sentence. Linglong smiled sweetly and said, “Is today’s matter part of the Emperor’s plan? The Emperor is indeed only a level higher.”
“What? A plan?” Huiqi’s eyebrows slightly opened and closed.
Linglong was surprised, “Wasn’t it the Emperor’s plan?” After saying that, Huiqi nodded and said, “This is also an unexpected change. However, it is also because those concubines are too arrogant. Since it is the Empress’ intention, it is good to follow her instructions.” That’s the default, isn’t it?
Linglong had roughly guessed one thing, but that point was like a lamp in front of her. The light was so bright that she could not see the deep secret clearly. However, she knew that she could discern the secret, but the time was not up.
