The First Empress - Chapter 143

Chapter 143 Leave The Palace
At this point, Huiqi had already gathered these people, Huiqi looked at Commander Jiang in front of him and said, “You also have an unmatched might. When you are outside, you must do your utmost to protect Concubine Jieyu’s safety. Last time, I would not have let you occupy such a high position so quickly, but it was Jieyu who pleaded for your mercy. Now that it is time for you to return the favor, don’t forget.”

Commander Jiang said, “This lowly subject will definitely do my utmost to protect Empress Bu Jieyu’s safety. With Empress Jieyu here, you can rest assured, Your Majesty.”

“You will also vomit a thousand zhang of Lingyun’s ambition. Forget it, for the sake of your courage, I believe you again now. If you are well protected, you will naturally be treated as an official. If something happens to you this time, I will not let you off. Do you understand that you will be punished for both crimes?”

“This lowly official understands that this lowly official will help the Emperor protect the Empress with his death. It’s good that the Emperor is at ease.”

Huiqi waved his hand. Commander Jiang had already retreated.

Huiqi pointed at Imperial Guard Long and said, “The two of you are familiar with each other, so I won’t give you any further instructions. There are some things that I understand even if I don’t say them.”

The Dragon Taboo Lieutenant stepped forward like a heaven-shaking lion descending from the clouds. He smiled and said, “Your Majesty, in fact, only this lowly official is enough. Not a single person beside this lowly official is capable of harming the person you are protecting. Your Majesty believes in this lowly official’s strength.”

“I know that your bones and tendons are strong, but things are different now. After all, there are more people who shoot cold arrows outside the Imperial Palace. Besides, Jieyu is my concubine. It’s a bit troublesome to prioritize some matters. It’s good that you know the joints.” Said Huiqi.

Linglong looked at the two of them and felt that both of them were sitting on the throne like a pixiu. She was not afraid anymore. She was just going outside the palace to give out some official silver. What was there to be afraid of? Linglong restrained her mind and no longer looked at the two of them. Instead, she looked left and right in front of her. Strange? Why hasn’t Mu Qianzhi come yet?

“Your Majesty?” Linglong tilted her eyes slightly and asked, “This concubine still needs a capable person. Why hasn’t she come yet?”

Huiqi looked around and asked, “Eunuch Lu, you know how to do things. Why hasn’t Mu Qianzhi come yet?”

Just as he was speaking, a clear voice came from outside. “It’s my fault that I came late. Long live Your Majesty.”

Linglong hurriedly placed her gaze at the entrance of Qian He Palace. Mu Qianzhi walked in wearing a purple robe embroidered with green patterns. He immediately knelt on the ground, Huiqi pulled Mu Qianzhi up and said, “You are very capable. Help Jieyu distribute the official silver. It will be good if you come back in three days. You must protect Jieyu’s safety. Even if you are completely annihilated, you cannot let Jieyu suffer any harm. If something happens to Jieyu, you will not be able to get away with it. Do you understand?”

The three of them nodded and Huiqi said, “Let’s go down. We will arrange the vehicle ceremony in a moment.”

Linglong looked at the exquisite white jade crown on Mu Qianzhi’s head and regained her composure. Huiqi said, “You will also go. Go to the Empress’ palace and put on the bird golden fur.”

Hui Qi’s hand slightly fluttered on Linglong’s face. Linglong pulled Hui Qi’s hand that was hanging in the air over, “Your Majesty, the harem cannot be too extravagant. Your Majesty, your concubine is going to give out official silver. You must not let the victims see our honor. Your Majesty, your concubine is willing to take it lightly.”

“Jieyu is like a god. I really don’t know what to reward you with.” Huiqi thought for a moment and handed over a small piece of jade. “You should return as you wish, okay?”

There was a faint glow in Linglong’s eyes as she looked at Hui Qi. There seemed to be a thousand kinds of light flashing in Hui Qi’s eyes. “This concubine knows, this concubine will definitely return safely.”

Linglong’s eyebrows were like green feathers, and she almost shed tears. She hurriedly turned around and wiped her face, which was as white as snow. “This concubine is going now, Your Majesty …”

Huiqi could not bear to see Linglong’s sad posture. He turned around and said, “I will personally send you outside Xuanwu Sect in a while. You can go back now.”

Linglong’s phoenix eyes narrowed slightly. Finally, she couldn’t help but shed tears. Everyone knew that it was like sending a lamb into a tiger wolf. No one could guarantee a safe return.

Moreover, there were already seven kings eyeing Lan Zaifu covetously and Lan Zaifu in a dilemma. This time, Linglong would be suppressed and hurt by others without thinking. Hui Qi could only think of a way to protect Linglong.

Linglong’s red lips trembled slightly. Finally, she turned around. She couldn’t stay here anymore. After all, the Emperor wouldn’t take back her life just because she was so sad. Now, she had no choice but to fight back. Linglong had no choice but to brave the scalp and walk outside.

Linglong stepped out of Qian He Palace. The warm wind outside was intoxicating.

She didn’t expect that there would be a warm breeze now. Linglong lazily reached out and wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes. She was unwilling to let anyone see her weakness and incompetence. Linglong was omnipotent in the eyes of others now.

Just as he walked out of Qianhe Palace, someone outside said, “Your Highness is indeed going outside the palace. I just don’t know if it’s your Highness’ intention or the Emperor’s intention, or the general trend of events.”

Linglong hurriedly turned around and saw Mu Qianzhi’s soft lips. Mu Qianzhi had already changed his clothes. Linglong did not expect Mu Qianzhi to wear a red robe so quickly. His ink-like hair fluttered in the wind. Linglong smiled and said, “It’s just that the emperor’s fate cannot be violated. You and I are both from the emperor, so I have wronged you.”

When she saw Mu Qianzhi’s gaze faintly absent-minded, she shook her head and said, “Qian is willing to go through fire and water for Your Majesty. Even if Your Majesty does not say anything, I know that Your Majesty will still accompany Your Majesty on her long journey.”

Linglong looked at Mu Qianzhi in front of her and felt that his eyes were as bright as two stars. She did not dare to guess Mu Qianzhi’s thoughts, but Linglong was a little afraid and selfish. No matter what, this person would definitely protect her, right?

Mu Qianzhi looked at Linglong’s frowning eyebrows and smiled as he took out a painting from his embrace. The woman in the painting was lifelike and vivid. Linglong’s eyes, which seemed to be filled with joy and emotion, trembled slightly. “Why-why don’t you throw away these things?”

His voice was as smooth as silk. “It’s just a small painting for Your Highness, but it’s a hard-won glance for Qian. Qian will treasure it well. However, I wonder if Your Highness still remembers the peace and sunshine of that dynasty.”

Linglong raised her eyes and looked at Mu Qianzhi. Today, Mu Qianzhi was thinking about how jade looked like. A spring snow plum blossom sighed with emotion. Red and white made Mu Qianzhi look enthusiastic and unrestrained. However, there was a loneliness in red.

Mu Qianzhi handed the painting in his hand to Linglong. Linglong was about to reach out to hold the painting, but Mu Qianzhi quickly reached out and grabbed Linglong’s wrist. He said, “Lu Bian Ren is like a moon, and Hao Hao’s wrist congeals frost and snow. I think the Empress is also conflicted today. Qian, stretch out your hand.”

“You, damn it!”

When Linglong remembered the peach blossoms on her face that day, could it be that her smile had already fallen into Renren City?

Linglong hurriedly broke free of Mu Qianzhi’s hand, but her heart was beating slightly. Linglong closed her eyes and said, “Lord Mu, go back and prepare. We’re leaving.”

Mu Qianzhi was like a reed leaning against a jade tree, looking at Linglong with a slightly pale expression, and said, “Sure enough, Your Highness doesn’t want to talk to Qian for a moment?”

Linglong hurriedly looked back and said, “Lord Mu is overthinking things.”

After she finished speaking, she took three steps and hurriedly went to the front. Mu Qianzhi followed closely behind. Linglong saw Qin’er and Li Sheng in front of the Spring Wave Bridge. Linglong hurriedly surrounded by the two of them and entered the Cloud Phoenix Hall. Mu Qianzhi waited outside.

‘”Your Highness,” Qin’er was about to tear up as she helped Linglong pack up the baggage she had prepared. “Your Highness, the Empress and Your Majesty are really ruthless. They actually let Your Highness go into danger alone. Your Highness …”

‘”It’s no use crying. After I leave, just help me look after the courtyard. Don’t wander around. Don’t gossip so as to avoid causing trouble for others. Now that I’m gone, someone will definitely take advantage of you. Do you understand?” Linglong still hadn’t forgotten to warn Qin’er in front of her. Qin’er nodded her head repeatedly, “It’s good that Your Highness is at ease. Qin’er will definitely listen to Your Highness’ words.”

Seeing that it was getting late, Li Sheng hurriedly urged, “Your Highness, it’s already noon. It’s time to go out.”

Linglong gritted her teeth and said coldly, “Qin’er, quickly wipe away your tears. Don’t let me worry about this.”

Qin’er hurriedly wiped away her tears. At this time, the carriage outside had already arrived. Qin’er saw that there were only a few people in Linglong’s luggage and ceremonies. She did not feel even more indignant. No matter how much patience she had, she could not bear it. She cried out again. Seeing Qin’er like this, Linglong was really unhappy. She sighed repeatedly and walked towards the sedan chair.

Mu Qianzhi stood in front of the carriage, Xiao Xiaosu, straightforward and clear.

She raised her hand and said, “Your Highness, get in the carriage. The gold and silver are already prepared. They are all inside. It’s good that the few of us are left and right. The Emperor said that we are going out to relieve the disaster this time, so we shouldn’t have too much luggage.”

Linglong put her hand on the back of Mu Qianzhi’s hand and said, “Thank you, Your Majesty.”

Mu Qianzhi smiled, solemn like a panasonic wind, high and Xu Yin.

‘”There’s no need to thank anyone. It’s someone else who forced you to do this. Qian Qian naturally knows that the Empress has her reluctance, but at this time, please relax. Even if Qian Qian doesn’t want this life outside, he will still protect her. What does the Empress think?” Because Mu Qianzhi was also a bodyguard who followed Linglong out of the city, their words would not arouse anyone’s imagination.

However, Linglong was still daydreaming. She felt that her hand was slightly cold. She hurriedly put it down from Mu Qianzhi’s hand. “This palace has never had any misgivings. This palace is merely issuing official silver. I believe that Sheng Doumin will not keep this palace alive. Besides, I am not afraid of experts like you.”

Linglong got into the car and looked down at Mu Qianzhi and Sheng, who said goodbye one by one, and Qin’er, who was crying so hard to clean up.

Linglong patted the horse gently and said, “Let’s go.”

Mu Qianzhi moved his footsteps and Yan Yanruo followed behind the carriage independently. The few of them arrived at the palace gate unhurriedly and unhurriedly.

The Empress and her concubines were already waiting for this. Some were happy, some were disappointed, and of course some were disdainful.

The Ningguta clan was naturally happy. First, she had donated quite a lot of money. Second, the Empress had already said something nice in front of the Emperor. Linglong could seduce the Emperor without any restraint once she left. Naturally, she walked in front of Linglong with a smile and said goodbye. Linglong just stammered for a moment.

Empress Ji Zhuhua looked at Linglong affectionately and said, “Go early and return early. This palace’s Shadow Guards will not leave you at all. If you give them a high five, they will come out. When they arrive outside the palace, they are both clothed in cloth.”

Linglong secretly remembered their appearances and said two words of gratitude to the Empress. The Empress was also touched. After all, Linglong had gone outside on her behalf.

Hui Qi looked at the sky and said, “Let’s go. There’s probably still something to talk about when the sun sets.”

Linglong looked at Huiqi. Huiqi’s eyes shone like lightning. She pulled the reins in front of her. This was the first time that the Emperor had actually sent his concubines to Xuanwu Sect.

Linglong was even more restless. She kept shouting for him to come out. Huiqi waved his hand and said, “You just need to sit inside. You are representing me now. You must not lose your manners.” When Linglong heard this, she calmed down a little and sat down.
