The First Empress - Chapter 181
Chapter 181 My Heart Is Not a Stone, Can’t Be Changed
Huiqi looked at Linglong. After pondering for a moment, Linglong firmly said, “Your Majesty, the mountains and rivers are your own, and the princess is also your own. Besides, it’s just a marriage. It’s not like you don’t get along with each other all year round. The emperor can let the messenger bring Princess Zhenxi to pay tribute every season. Isn’t it good that the emperor only sees the princess once every three to five months in the inner court?”
Huiqi was even more shaken and said, “Is that what you mean?”
A faint smile appeared on Linglong’s beautiful face. “It’s my opinion. Your Majesty, don’t take it lightly. Your Majesty just said what I think. As for the Holy Judgment, I naturally don’t dare to discuss it. This is also a matter of the previous dynasty. Your Majesty, a concubine, a woman from the Deep Palace, doesn’t understand anything. Your Majesty, don’t let me down just because of this.”
Huiqi’s cold and proud eyes looked at Linglong and stretched out his hand to say, “Jieyu, get up and reply.” Linglong only felt a pain in her knee. The pain was even more intense at this time. She almost fell down. Huiqi reached out to support Linglong and said, “Probably because you can’t get up from your knees. Sit here. I want to ask you if you have the best way.”
Huiqi’s eyes seemed to be out of focus as she looked at the distant spot in front of her. Linglong nodded and said, “Why don’t we kill Tuoba Rui” Linglong slashed her hand into the air and said with a loud voice, “Kill him-”
Huiqi’s eyes were stained with a bloodthirsty light. He turned around and said, “It’s not that I haven’t considered this matter, but he isn’t alone in the forbidden grounds. If he didn’t succeed with killing intent, it would be bad.” Huiqi’s dark eyes were filled with worry. Linglong could only nod her head and sigh, “Then as long as the Emperor endured the pain of love, I just don’t know if the Emperor is willing or not.”
Huiqi seemed to be surrounded by an icy cold aura as he slowly approached Linglong. “These are your opinions. Is there anything better?”
“This concubine is not an advisor. This is the only place I can see.” Linglong pretended to be timid and didn’t dare to look into Huiqi’s eyes. Huiqi narrowed her eyes and said, “This way, I have to apologize to Imperial Concubine De and Princess Zhen Xi again. This makes it quite difficult for me.”
Linglong smiled and said with a hint of arrogance, “Does the Emperor want to restrain Consort De and Grand Master Mu? Of course, there is also Mu Qianzhi. Mu Qianzhi works with the Seven Kings, and the Emperor knows that.” Upon hearing this, Hui Qi’s eyes were filled with interest and he said, “Do you mean that it would be a good idea to kiss Princess Zhen Xi?”
“Your Majesty can ask Khan to sign a treaty. In the future, he will never be enemies with the Dali Dynasty. A woman can save the world. I believe Duke Zhen Xi is sensible and will do such a thing, right?” Linglong immediately grabbed onto the core of the problem and continued, “Besides, Prince Tuoba doesn’t like the other princesses. Even if he likes other princesses, the rest are even more mediocre. It would be better to push Princess Zhenxi along the river without any help or dedication to the country.”
“However, I–” Hui Qi’s chest rose and fell uneasily.
At this time, Eunuch Lu waved his fly brush and walked in. “Imperial Concubine De wants to see–”
Linglong was secretly shocked. Imperial Concubine De’s eyes were like lightning. Although she had never interfered in anything, she was able to tell. Thus, Linglong wanted to avoid it. “Imperial Concubine De must have come because of Princess Zhenxi. This concubine wanted to leave first to avoid being misunderstood by Imperial Concubine De.”
“Concubine De is a person of etiquette, so I won’t misunderstand you. Just keep it. Just let Concubine De in. Don’t stand outside.” As Huiqi instructed Eunuch Lu, Eunuch Lu slipped outside. Not long after, Concubine De had already rushed in. Seeing Linglong here, she only smiled slightly.
After questioning the Emperor, he said, “This palace is here unfortunately. I don’t want Sister Jie Yu to be here as well. Sister Jie Yu is running around. Don’t you know what the result is?”
Linglong was secretly shocked. Perhaps Concubine De already knew that she had gone to Tuoba Rui’s place. She only smiled and said, “For this matter, I can only run around. I have no other choice.”
“Presumably, Concubine Jieyu has decided to send Princess Zhenxi away?” Imperial Concubine De’s tone was very calm, just like the wooden fish that Imperial Concubine De knocked on every day. Linglong nodded her head and said, “Imperial Concubine De’s words are wrong. The one Linglong wants to send away is Princess Baoluo. Princess Zhenxi is the foundation of the country, so naturally she cannot send her away.”
Imperial Concubine De looked at Linglong’s elegant face and suddenly revealed a meaningless smile, “Your Majesty, what do you mean?”
Only then did Hui Qi regain his composure and say, “I mean, I am now under an unprecedented threat. Take a look for yourself.” Imperial Concubine De handed Wen Pin over again. Imperial Concubine De was able to see everything at a glance. After reading it, she sneered and said, “My Heart Bandit Stone, you can’t change it. There is a little bit of the literary essence of Little Sister Jieyu. I wonder if Prince Tuoba has consulted the Empress before?”
Imperial Concubine De’s tone was full of disdain and disdain. Tuoba Rui remembered the matter about Wen Pin. Linglong naturally had a clear conscience and sneered, “Your Majesty, how about letting this concubine retire?”
“You want to leave again? One person is short. Isn’t it good to let three people go now? Why are you going back?” Huiqi was slightly angry. Linglong was also angry and said, “The three of them don’t have the same face and heart. What’s the use of that?”
Huiqi looked at Concubine De and said, “You’re here to solve the problem, not to cause trouble. Don’t be rude, understand?” Imperial Concubine De nodded repeatedly and said, “It’s my fault. Let Sister Jieyu stay. What the Emperor said is very true. It can be discussed if one of us is short. In short, this concubine will not send Princess Zhenxi away.”
“Do you think that I and Linglong want to send Princess Zhenxi away?” Linglong also looked extremely sad. In order to show that she and De Fei were on the same boat, she said, “Perhaps De Fei sister will not believe it. Your Majesty understands what this concubine really means.”
Before the three of them could come up with a result, Chen Chongyi asked to see them again outside. Huiqi pressed his eyebrows and said, “Let Chen Chongyi in.”
Chen Chongyi and Princess Baoluo walked in. They did not look at the Emperor at all. They only slightly nodded to Linglong. Then, Baoluo and Chen Chongyi knelt on the ground and said, “This concubine brought Princess Baoluo over. I beg the Emperor to kiss Princess Baoluo.” Huiqi secretly felt that Chen Chongyi was ruthless. He waved his sleeves and said, “You are very capable of causing trouble. It’s not like I didn’t think about letting Baoluo get close to you. However, Tuoba Rui doesn’t like Baoluo, so there’s nothing I can do about it. Baoluo’s realization that day was too inferior!” Huiqi’s cold eyes fell over.
Linglong looked at Chen Chongyi with a faint smile. These things had already been discussed between the two of them. Chen Chongyi was also very courageous. When Huiqi looked at Princess Baoluo again, he saw that Baoluo was wearing a red wedding dress and a pomegranate dress today.
“What are you doing?”
Bao Luo cried and said, “It was the pomegranate dress that Imperial Concubine Bu asked Empress Han Xiuyi of the Shanggong Bureau to make. It was Huang’er’s wedding dress.”
Concubine De watched coldly. She had never expected Linglong to have such a powerful move. This time, she was convinced. Even if she offered Baoluo, it would be useless. Concubine De sighed and said, “Since you want to give up Baoluo, then this concubine will tell Tuoba Rui.”
Paulo revealed her tearful eyes and said, “Thank you, Concubine De.” To call Linglong Mother Concubine Bu and Concubine De Concubine Concubine De, it was obvious that there was a difference between familiarity and familiarity. When Hui Qi saw this, he couldn’t help but feel that Ling Long and Chen Chongyi were both very sensible and said, “Stand up, don’t kneel down. It’s doing good deeds that makes me feel ashamed of you in my heart.” Hui Qi said as he lowered his head.
Chen Chongyi and Baoluo had already stood up. As Baoluo wiped the corner of his eyes with his sleeve, he glanced at Linglong. Linglong said, “Why didn’t the Emperor let Prince Tuoba choose again?”
Hui Qi said helplessly, “My Heart Bandit Stone cannot be turned around. Didn’t you see these words?”
Linglong felt a chill run down her spine. She didn’t know if it was a gust of wind or her own psychological effects. She sighed for a long time and said, “Why don’t you let Prince Tuoba come over?”
Before he could finish his sentence, Tuoba Rui had indeed come over. After he asked, he looked straight at the emperor and said, “The emperor is hesitating to marry. It is not good for the emperor to be hesitant. There are also foreign codes in the foreign countries. My father Tuoba Khan has made it clear that if he cannot bring back the princess he likes, he will meet him in battle.”
“Is that so?” Hui Qi smiled angrily and said, “Your father is very bold. Now that he has a princess, take a look. If you like her, then choose this one.” Hui Qi pointed at Princess Bao Luo. Bao Luo was not afraid. She also looked at Tuoba Rui, who was described as disdainful. She did not expect Tuoba Rui to spit, “This woman is obviously from the people. She is not a golden branch and jade leaf at first glance. The Emperor is very good at magic. Unfortunately, the foreign minister, Crocodiles, does not accept this. If it doesn’t work, then we can only take her by force.”
Huiqi said, “My Hehe Heavenly Dynasty can actually invade a small Western barbarian like you. Besides, you are now in my hands, and I only want you to be torn into pieces for ten thousand pieces for a moment. Have you ever thought about it?”
Tuoba Rui put his hands together and walked to Huiqi’s side. He said, “Please bestow death on me. When the time comes, not only Khan, but even Rouran Beirong will have a heart of disrespect. At that time, the Emperor will know the benefits. She is just a woman. There are so many women in the Emperor, yet she is reluctant to part with one. Why?” Or is the Emperor going to fight against the Western barbarians? ”
Seeing that Tuoba Rui did not like Princess Huiqi, Baoluo could only ask Baoluo to retreat. She used her gaze to signal Linglong. Linglong waved her hand and said, “Royal Guards, keep the Prince under house arrest. I don’t believe that Khan from the Western barbarians will watch his son die miserably!”
“You can give it a try. Come on.” Tuoba Rui stretched out his hand and smiled as he sent it over. “Khan is not the Emperor of the Dali Dynasty who is so indecisive. Even if Khan knows that the foreign minister is dead, he still needs to attack.”
Linglong had no choice but to glance at Concubine De. Concubine De said at this time, “I beg the prince. Is Princess Zhenxi not a very beautiful woman? Princess Baoluo, whom the prince saw just now, is a very talented princess. Why did you buy a casket and return the pearl? Please think twice.”
