The First Empress - Chapter 246

Chapter 246 Escape From Prison

Huiqi walked over and grabbed Linglong’s chin. He looked at Linglong angrily, “If you want to follow the Empress’ old path, I will definitely not let you off. It doesn’t matter how much you helped me. In the end, I will never let you off.” Huiqi’s clear and fair face revealed a clear coldness. Linglong tried her best to calm herself down and looked at Huiqi with her pair of dark and deep eyes. “Your Majesty, there are still twists and turns in this matter. Could it be that Your Majesty really doesn’t listen to a single word of this concubine?”

Linglong raised her thick eyebrows slightly, “Your Majesty …”

‘”Don’t say it. My blood droplets won’t hear wrongly. When you first started conspiring against me, I already knew. It’s inevitable that your plan will fail again and again. Every time you want to put me to death, if I didn’t let anyone follow you, wouldn’t I not even know how to die now?” Huiqi’s tall nose also trembled slightly. Linglong’s beautiful lips curved into a tense arc. She looked at Huiqi with a clear reproach, “Your Majesty, are you following me?”

‘”Your Majesty, you have never been at ease with me. You have never been at ease with me, have you?” Linglong’s thick eyelids rose up slightly. Linglong’s long and slightly curled eyelashes were trembling non-stop. Suddenly, some sparkling tears oozed out of her eyes. “Your Majesty, did you actually follow me?”

Huiqi was enraged. “Ninth Heavenly Heart Stage, have you never heard of it? Not only have you been following Ji Zhuhua for so many years, but I have also said that you can kill him for the sake of the closest relatives of the royal family. When the time comes, I have to kill everyone.” Huiqi took a deep breath and sat on a chair made of red sandalwood. He looked down at Linglong from above and raised his eyes. His clear eyes looked at Huiqi, “Your Majesty, according to what the Emperor said, are the rumors true?”

“Regardless of whether it is true or false, I am the Emperor of the Dali Dynasty. Is this enough?” Huiqi had never been so angry before. After he finished speaking, he pointed at Linglong and said, “You can go down. I won’t care about today’s matter for the time being …”

“Your Majesty, don’t you mind?” As Linglong spoke, she stood up slightly and blessed herself, saying, “Then, this concubine will leave.” Linglong was shocked by the red blood stains on her hands. She used her hand to gently wipe them away, but the corner of her mouth was still smiling. Her beautiful smile almost made people unable to see the joy and anger in her heart.

“Are you leaving like this?” Huiqi rushed over and reached out to grab Linglong’s wrist. Linglong turned around doubtfully and narrowed her eyes at Huiqi. “Does this concubine want to thank Lord Long’en?” As he spoke, he said in an official tone, “Your Majesty, Your Majesty, thank you for your tireless efforts to protect me for so many years.”

“You’ve changed,” Huiqi looked at Linglong. “Linglong, you’ve changed.”

Linglong’s lips curled into a smile. “Does the Emperor think that this concubine has changed? Why does this concubine feel that this concubine is still the same? However, I think everyone is changing. It’s not just this concubine.” Linglong’s curved lips curved into a mocking smile. “This concubine is just following the tide to change. Otherwise, she would have died a long time ago. The emperor said that this concubine has become good or bad? After this change, this concubine will help the emperor eliminate the evil spirits and help the emperor settle down. Isn’t this good?” After Linglong finished speaking, she looked at Huiqi with eyes as bright as the crescent moon in the night sky. “In Your Majesty’s eyes, your concubines will probably forever be your advisors. Does Your Majesty really want the enemy to destroy your advisors and die?”

Facing Linglong’s aggressive posture, Huiqi was really helpless. The corner of her mouth moved twice, but she didn’t say anything malicious. Linglong wiped the corner of her mouth and walked out of school for the Emperor’s son. However, she pretended to be full with Eunuch Lu, who had just walked in. Eunuch Lu was frightened and hurriedly helped Linglong up.

Linglong sighed and said, “Let’s go in. It’s just that I didn’t look at it when I was distracted. It’s none of your business.”

Eunuch Lu slapped himself as he helped Linglong up and said, “It was originally this servant’s fault. This servant was panicked, this servant was condemned to death!”

Linglong said, “You are also careful and mature. Now that you are panicking, what happened?” Linglong asked. Eunuch Lu gently patted the dust on his body with the fly brush and said, “It’s a long story … Seventh Prince Hui Ye escaped from prison.”

“Escape?” Linglong didn’t believe it.

“Those who went in last night were completely empty this morning, because his right hand was crippled and those damned people from the Ministry of Justice were not properly tied up.” After Eunuch Lu finished speaking, he turned around and said, “Your Majesty still doesn’t know. This servant has to hurry up and tell Your Majesty.” Linglong originally wanted to leave, but after encountering this kind of thing, Linglong could not leave. She was really glad that she did not execute Ji Zhuhua. Otherwise, she would have no choice but to encounter the current situation.

“This palace should also go in.” As Linglong spoke, she walked to the front. After thinking for a while, she held a ruby hairpin in her hand. She wanted to borrow this ruby to take a look at her appearance. Linglong looked at her evil face and the corner of her bloodstained mouth. She hurriedly wiped it off with a brocade handkerchief. Only then did she step into school for the Emperor’s son.

‘”Impudent, how could such a ridiculous thing happen? Seventh Prince’s right hand is already crippled. He’s like a dog. Can’t the soldiers in the prison of the Ministry of Justice see such a half-dead man? Shouldn’t all these people die?” Huiqi’s rage was burning in his eyes. Eunuch Lu explained, “Your Majesty, there is a reason for this. On the one hand, there are still the remnants of the royalists. On the other hand, they looked at Hui Ye’s crippled right hand and carelessly did not tie Hui Ye up properly.” Eunuch Lu was afraid that he would say something wrong and provoke Huiqi.

Huiqi said, “Where can a crippled man go? Just search the palace for me. I don’t believe he can turn the tables on us.”

At this time, Linglong walked in. Huiqi was slightly surprised. Looking at Linglong, her fair face was flushed with a faint pink color. “Your Majesty, don’t be surprised. Just as the Emperor said, she is just a crippled person. She is still in the palace.”

Seeing Linglong return, Huiqi felt a little more alert than happy and asked, “Aren’t you going back to rest?”

“This concubine is considered to be resting.” Linglong sighed. “The Emperor will also summon me. Since that’s the case, I don’t need to be like that. I should come and help the Emperor out.”

Huiqi’s face was as clear as engravings, and there was an indelible glint in his fierce eyes. “What do you think? What exactly should we do about this?” Huiqi asked.

“Your Majesty,” Linglong’s long eyebrows were like willows, and she turned around slightly like a jade tree. “Everyone has weaknesses. Your Majesty naturally knows Hui Ye’s weaknesses. Right now, Hui Ye doesn’t need much, does he? Actually, Your Majesty can gamble on it. Which one of the beautiful women in the world does he want?”

“Do you have a chance of winning? This matter?” Huiqi asked.

“Your Majesty knows that this concubine will not fight an unprepared battle.” The smile at the corner of Linglong’s mouth was like a blooming plum blossom, full of indifference. However, there was a certain certainty in this indifference. Huiqi reached out to hold Linglong’s hand. Linglong instinctively took a step back and subconsciously bowed, “Your Majesty, this matter should …”

After Linglong finished speaking, Huiqi’s expression became much better. Originally, it was already a bad thing. However, after Linglong said this, the willow blossom blossomed brightly. Huiqi said, “I don’t know what happened to me just now. I won’t hit you in the future.”

“This concubine is from the Emperor. If the Emperor wants to beat her up, you can just scold her as you please. How can this concubine have any leeway to speak?” Linglong did not show the slightest bit of dissatisfaction. After she finished speaking, she looked at Huiqi and said, “Then this concubine will really retire this time.”

Huiqi waved his hand.

When Linglong arrived in Yunluan Palace, Qin’er and Li Sheng came out one after another, and the two of them were greatly shocked.

“What’s wrong, Your Highness?” Qin’er asked anxiously while drawing water. Li Sheng quickly soaked a clean brocade handkerchief in the water. The two of them were busy for a while, and they had already covered the corner of Linglong’s mouth with a steaming brocade handkerchief. Linglong was still dumbfounded.

It was like a camellia, a wooden beauty.

After a long time, Linglong rolled her eyes and said, “It’s fine. I just hate the tricks in the palace. Hui Ye actually escaped from prison. This palace is wondering if it was right or wrong for this palace to help the Emperor this time.”

Qin’er frowned. Li Sheng sighed and said, “Your Majesty is now a noble person. There are some things you can’t say without saying anything. If Your Majesty really wants to protect yourself, you still need to obey the Emperor. Does Your Majesty understand the saying that Mu Xiu will be destroyed by Lin Feng?”

Linglong nodded and said, “You are the Empress’ old battalion. This matter really hurts your heart.”

“It’s just that everyone is fighting. Servant has seen many of them. Servant is willing to serve the Empress as a cow for the rest of his life.” After Li Sheng finished speaking, her voice choked. Linglong gently held Li Sheng’s hand. “This palace has no choice. This palace will not let go of anyone who harmed Princess Yu Lai. None of them will be let go. This palace must kill those masterminds behind the scenes, no matter who they are.”

Li Sheng nodded.

The next day, since the news was not blocked, Everyone already knew that it was like 800 kilometers of wind and fire, This was within Huiqi’s expectations and Linglong’s expectations. The Kunde Palace was very quiet. Everything seemed to be soaked in a pine tree. The Empress was still as beautiful as before. She was as beautiful as an immortal. Linglong was still as ignorant as before. However, both of them knew that everything was different.

“Your Highness, what’s so good about wearing such a zip robe on a wedding day?” With Qin’er’s help, Linglong entered Kun De Palace and saw Ji Zhu Hua worshipping the gods at first glance. Linglong walked to Ji Zhu Hua’s side.

“Raise your head three feet. I am only doing my best to listen to the will of the heavens. What’s there to do?” Ji Zhuhua already had a few strands of white hair on top of his head. These strands of white hair had a shocking feeling. It seemed that the white hair was always much harder than the black hair, so much so that it jumped out of the black hair.
