The First Empress - Chapter 249
Chapter 249 Quasi-imperial Decree
Huiqi raised her head and looked at Linglong. Linglong said, “As long as the emperor has done something, I will leave three thousand strands for you. I have witnessed all of this with my own eyes. Unfortunately, I am just a mortal. Otherwise, I would have comforted Seventh Prince and the empress.” After Linglong finished speaking, she stretched out her hand and pulled up her loose dress, wiping away the tears at the corner of her eyes.
Huiqi walked over with his sword in hand. Linglong knew what Huiqi wanted, He couldn’t help but feel a little fear. Huiqi staggered, not forward, Linglong was even more frightened. He retreated into a corner and had no choice but to retreat. The corner of his skirt hooked onto the corner of the sandalwood table. The golden silk smoke suddenly split open, revealing the gauze dress inside. It was like a scarlet dream. Huiqi stood there and pointed at Linglong. “Did you really see Seventh Prince and the Empress commit suicide?”
Linglong was terrified, but she still couldn’t show any fear. She said angrily, “Could this concubine be lying? This concubine witnessed the two of them commit suicide with her own eyes. The two of them had already received the Emperor’s forgiveness, but she couldn’t understand why she couldn’t let go of it.” Linglong sighed sorrowfully. She did not dodge Huiqi. Instead, she walked to Huiqi’s side. At this time, Linglong deliberately revealed her incomparably sexy collarbone.
The purple butterfly on the collarbone appeared. Linglong walked to Huiqi’s side charmingly. She knew that her charm had attracted Huiqi, so she said, “Your Majesty, Seventh Prince is dead. Why don’t you tell all the ambitious people in the world to help your Majesty? Your Majesty is the righteous son of heaven, so you should properly celebrate.” Linglong looked at Huiqi, her beautiful eyes flickering with rays of light.
Huiqi put down his sword and almost cried out in pain. Seeing someone move Hui Ye and Ji Zhuhua’s corpses, he looked even more indignant and grieved. He reached out and hugged Hui Ye’s corpse. “Brother Wang, you really shouldn’t have committed suicide. You are my twin brother. I have already promised you that I will give you whatever you want.” “Since you want to enjoy the luxury of living alone with the Empress, you can go. But you really shouldn’t be acting like this.” Royal servant, who was also a smart person, hurriedly comforted the Emperor. After he finished speaking, Huiqi stopped his grief.
Linglong knew what Huiqi meant. Huiqi wasn’t sure if his sword had completely taken their lives, Naturally, he needed to have a good check-up, Linglong walked over. Testing the temperature of the two of them, Sure enough, the two of them were already dead. Linglong couldn’t help but reveal a look of bereavement. Her eyelids, like those of Cuiyu, quickly shook. After observing everyone’s expressions, she said, “The emperor is a hero, the country needs the emperor, the country needs the emperor, the rivers and mountains, and the common people need the emperor, the people need the emperor … The emperor can’t do this. The emperor should pity himself, the emperor.” For a moment, everyone was almost attracted by the tragic sound, and the air was also stagnant.
There were a few centurions in the army that Seventh Prince Hui Ye brought over. They looked at each other for a while, and a few adults from the Eguan Bo Belt came. Groups of people surrounded them. After observing Hui Ye and Ji Zhuhua’s dead bodies, they first cried bitterly, then said a few words about our master’s wisdom, and then began to discuss other matters.
Linglong stopped her grief and walked to the Emperor’s side. Huiqi said, “I’m exhausted today. I want to sit in the Heart Restoration Hall. My beloved ladies, please restrain Seventh Prince and the Empress. I-”
Linglong’s waist was like a bundle of strands, and she walked to Huiqi’s side. She hurriedly supported Huiqi and said, “Your Majesty, go into the Heart Nurturing Hall. We’ll come back later.” Everyone obviously didn’t want Huiqi to leave. They immediately surrounded him and said, “Your Majesty, can you leave at such a time? Your Majesty, why don’t you wait here and watch over the corpses of the late Empress and Seventh Prince …”
Huiqi knew what everyone meant. They were just afraid that Huiqi would flee. Not only would he flee, he might even arrange for a group of people to annihilate all of them. Therefore, everyone was in danger. They even used all sorts of strange reasons to make the Emperor stay.
“Your Majesty, since your Majesty is already exhausted, why don’t you go into the inner hall?” After Linglong finished speaking, she had already helped Huiqi into the inner hall. This way, Huiqi would be safe for the time being. The soldiers outside were naturally prepared to be killed at any time. As long as they could monitor Huiqi in this manner, they would feel less at risk.
When Huiqi arrived at the inner hall, his face had already changed into a fierce and vicious expression. He gritted his teeth and said, “How am I going to get out like this?” Our Featherwood Guards and Blood Droplets combined, even if everyone can take it from the army, their heads will not be able to catch it. “Moreover, this kind of massacre has never happened since the Dali Dynasty opened its borders. If it goes on like this, it will naturally not be good. Not only will it attract criticism, even our subjects who have had great difficulty online will also criticize me. What should we do?” Linglong only smiled and walked over. She looked at Huiqi with beautiful eyes and said, “The Emperor is tired today. Naturally, sometimes I can’t figure it out clearly in my head. I naturally have two perfect methods according to this concubine. If the Emperor wants to get out of this awkward situation immediately, this concubine has a way.” Huiqi glanced outside and said, “I’m afraid that the people outside will rush in soon. When the time comes, five steps of blood will be shed and two corpses will be buried. Naturally, it’s not good. I’m also afraid inside.”
Linglong was just a pair of moths and said indifferently, “Could it be that the Emperor still doesn’t believe in the methods of his concubines?”
Huiqi shook his head noncommittally and said, “This matter is very big. I have to be careful. Otherwise, I don’t know how I will be assassinated.”
Linglong smiled like a spring plum blooming with snow and said, “Your Majesty, don’t worry too much. Let’s see how this concubine handles it. This concubine will definitely not disappoint Your Majesty.” Huiqi’s cold and fierce eyes fell over and he said, “This is not the previous time. The previous time was relatively easy. If there is a problem this time, not only will I be shattered, but even Linglong will be fine. Do you understand the seriousness of this matter?” Linglong’s hand was as soft as a catkin. She gently came over to hold Huiqi’s hand and said, “Your Majesty, please don’t stay. All you need is a concubine’s imperial decree. Your Majesty, don’t be anxious.”
Seeing Eunuch Lu beside him, Linglong waved her hand and Eunuch Lu walked over.
‘”Eunuch Lu, please bring the emperor’s blank imperial edict to the school for the Emperor’s son in front of you, so that all the officials and generals outside can see it.” At this point, Linglong looked at Huiqi, revealing her beautiful chin and lips, “Is the emperor’s imperial jade seal here?” When Huiqi heard this, his heart skipped a beat and he said, “What are you doing?”
Linglong sighed and said, “The jade seal is naturally used to seal the imperial edict. The civil servant general does not recognize anything else but this thing.” Huiqi nodded and handed over the jade seal from her bosom. Linglong took the jade seal and placed it on the table in front of her.
Linglong’s gaze was pleated like the light of a snow moon as she looked at Huiqi. “Your Majesty, can I have this concubine prepare a jade seal later?”
Huiqi nodded his head and said softly like a flowing spring, “Alright, I’ll just take a look.” Linglong nodded. Walking to the window, After pondering for a while, he grasped a sheepish pen in the pen container in front of him. After dipping in the ink, he thought to himself that the ink had already fallen. He wrote on a piece of white paper in front of him. Huiqi sat not far from Linglong and saw that Linglong had written, “Amnesty to the Yu Clan of Seventh Prince, promotion to the rank of Marquis, and jump to the rank of Third Grade.” Yun Yun couldn’t help but pull the imperial edict over and angrily reprimanded, “Do you still think that these people’s grades are not enough?” Do you know what it means to be a high-ranking master? ”
Linglong knelt down and said, “What kind of duty does the Emperor think it is for the Imperial Academy to treat his concubine’s father? And what kind of duty does the Emperor think it is for the Imperial Academy to write and the Imperial Academy’s Shu Jishi?” Huiqi didn’t know what Linglong meant. Holding the paper, “I know that I have treated your father underestimatedly. The imperial edict is just an idle job. I am afraid that your father will rebel if he holds the military power. There are countless examples of this. The Imperial Academy’s Shu Jishi and the Imperial Academy’s Xiuzhuan are just idle jobs. It can be said that they have only given Sun Wukong the position of Great Sage of Heaven.”
After saying that, Huiqi looked at Linglong’s delicate cheeks and said, “Is that what you mean?”
Linglong sighed and held Huiqi’s hand. “Does the Emperor think that these people will still assist the Emperor if he doesn’t give them the position?”
“If I retain these people, then I will be raising a tiger and leaving behind a legacy. I don’t know when I will be killed by these rebels. All of these rebels will be executed. I am not a person who will tolerate rebellion.” After Huiqi finished speaking, she walked to Huiqi with a graceful gait and said, “Now is not the time to act emotionally. Haven’t the Emperor heard a poem about the ninth level of the dynasty and the eight thousand years of the Chaozhou Road in the evening?” “Giving them a good position is only temporary. When the political situation becomes clear, I naturally believe that the Emperor will not be soft-hearted.”
A person who would even kill his younger brother and his empress would definitely not be a merciful person.
Only then did Huiqi hand over the white paper and say, “Continue writing. I understand what you mean. Your meaning is very good.” Linglong took the white paper and continued to write, “Nian Zaiye is helping me bow year by year. I buried Seventh Prince in a place that is inferior to the etiquette of the Son of Heaven.” Huiqi became even angrier and said, “What is this? I don’t want this at all. You’re doing this!”
“Is the Emperor in such a hurry? Why don’t you wait for this concubine to finish writing?” As Linglong spoke, she continued to write. Huiqi’s face gradually turned pale, as if it was a piece of white paper in front of her.
