The First Empress - Chapter 254
Chapter 254 Chaotic Politics
At noon, Qin’er had already told Linglong what had happened in the court. Linglong had already been in her heart. She placed the black bean beside her hand on the disk and cleaned her hands. “Did you calculate the number of people?” Qin’er nodded and said, “It’s all over. Your supporters are almost identical to those who support Lan Sou Yu.”
“Does that mean that no one can defeat anyone? Between us?” Linglong smiled bitterly and took the handkerchief that Qin’er handed over. She wiped her hands clean and said, “Is there anything else?”
Qin’er didn’t know whether to say it or not, but she only sighed after a long time. “Also, Wang Ruquan, this old fool, is causing trouble over there. He’s helping out. Even the Emperor doesn’t know what to do when things get out of hand.”
“And finally?” Linglong asked coldly, “Has the Emperor suppressed it?”
Qin’er nodded, “Your Majesty will discuss it later. After all, the Queen’s Conferred Seal is rather tedious. There are many things that need to be considered.” When Linglong heard this, she turned her head and said, “Go and invite Elder Wang over and respectfully invite him over for this palace. Don’t neglect him.” Qin’er waved her hand. Xiao Zhuozi, who was beside her, was already ready, so she rubbed her fists and left.
Linglong waited. Wang Ruquan had already arrived after a while, but Little Zhuozi’s respectful understanding was obviously wrong. Linglong looked at him with resentment, “With you as a servant, you haven’t improved, so I asked you to come over respectfully. Why are you doing this? Why don’t you serve tea to the old man of the pavilion?” After saying that, Xiao Zhuozi let go of Wang Ruquan’s hand. Linglong patted Wang Gelao’s shoulder and said, “The pavilion is always an important official of the country. It is a mainstay. Is there a reason for what happened today or does it support Lan Sou Yu?” ‘”Lan Zhenglin is now confident in winning. I don’t have the slightest intention of blaming the Pavilion Elder. I just want to tell the Pavilion Elder a few words of kindness. If Lan Sou Yu really becomes the Empress, then the world will definitely be in chaos. I think the Pavilion Elder doesn’t want to see it.”
Wang Ru Quan Yuan and Ting Yue stood there, She tidied up her clothes that had been wrinkled by Royal servant just now. Stamping his feet, He sat down and said, Just now, it was Qiongzhi Yishu who stood there. Now, she sat down like a copper bell. “I have no choice but to. If I don’t work with Lan Zhenglin, then not only will I suffer a bloody disaster, but also a bunch of civilians under my jurisdiction will be stranded. Elder Lan has long been accustomed to being arrogant and arrogant. Your Highness doesn’t know about it.”
Linglong personally poured the tea and sent it over. Her hands were as white as Kunlun jade. Wang Ruquan caught the cup of tea and did not drink it. Instead, he placed it heavily on the table. “Actually, this old official is not someone who fears death. However, this old official does not want to obey Lan Zhenglin because he does not want to obey the common people …”
Linglong understood Wang Ruquan’s difficulties. After asking what had happened, “Don’t worry, Elder Ge. There’s no need to go tomorrow. With this palace looking for General Han Qi to protect the civilians, Elder Ge will just pretend tomorrow that his body is unwell and he can’t go to court.” Linglong’s beautiful eyes emitted a faint brilliance. Looking over, he said, “This palace will make good arrangements for the rest of the matters. It can be imagined that I already want to control everyone now. If I become the new monarch, everyone’s life will not be easy.”
Wang Ruquan was stunned and asked, “Is Your Highness willing to take the throne?”
“I don’t want to,” Linglong said, “but when it comes to last resort, I can only let this palace take over. Otherwise, I’m afraid no woman can suppress Lan Sou Yu properly.”
“I swear my allegiance to the Empress and the Imperial Court.” As he spoke, Wang Ruquan was about to kneel down. How could Linglong allow such a venerable person to kneel in front of her and quickly intercept him? Wang Ruquan nodded and left.
At this time, Linglong immediately asked Han Qi to protect the people under Wang Ruquan’s jurisdiction, She was worried, After a good open and secret interview, This solved a lot of problems, It turned out that many people were threatened, Of course, there were some people who received sugar-coated shells, This caused the two forces in the court to compete in different ways. Linglong did not want to be the Empress, but Linglong knew that if she did not become the Empress, she would die in the future. No matter who the candidate for the Empress ended up with, she hoped that it would be herself, or someone else, but not Lan Sou Yu.
When Huiqi came to Yunluan Palace in the evening, his mood was also gloomy when he saw Linglong’s smiling face. “You don’t listen to anything outside the window. What happened today is so exaggerated. You’re actually idling here to feed the fish. It’s really hard to eat in front of you.”
Linglong ignored Hui Qi’s teasing and stretched out her tall and moist fingers, saying, “Your Majesty, take a look. These hands are well maintained. Naturally, they have never been exposed to the wind and sun. I don’t want to be sent to work in the berserk room in the future. I probably won’t be able to last a day when I’m still working as a servant, right?” That pair of well-proportioned and beautiful fingers stretched out. Huiqi held it and said, “I know what you’re thinking, but …”
“No, it’s just that this empress can only be a concubine. I will argue with her.” As Linglong spoke, she sighed, “I am not unaware of the matters in the court today. I have already dealt with them. Naturally, no one will be like this tomorrow. Don’t worry, Your Majesty.”
After Huiqi asked what had happened, he said, “You have always moved very quickly. This is the best and not the worst. I am at ease with you the most.”
Suddenly, the sound of ghosts crying and wolves howling came from the backyard. Linglong frowned slightly and Huiqi asked, “What kind of sound is this?”
Linglong ignored it and drank a mouthful of tea, saying, “It’s just pretending to be a ghost. Does the Emperor really want to see what this is?”
Huiqi nodded. Linglong took two steps first and called Xiao Zhuozi over. She asked, “Have you set up a trap? You must catch the ghost this time, so that the Emperor can see that Lang Lang’s world still has that strange power that confuses the gods.” Huiqi said, “Let’s go take a look.”
Everyone moved to the back of Huating. Behind them was a dense phoenix tail, a bamboo forest. The bamboo forest was like a piece of jade. There was a dry well in the bamboo forest. It was said that there had been a concubine who had stumbled in the well. They had never heard of a ghost before. At this time, something had happened.
Little Zhuo Zi had already arrived at the well and was waiting for the rabbit. The well was dark. Little Zhuo Zi saw Linglong Yu Huiqi walking over and was ready to salute. Linglong signaled that Little Zhuo Zi did not need it. Little Zhuo Zi jumped into the well and grabbed someone and walked out. He immediately threw it on the ground.
Linglong Yu Huiqi immediately arrived in front. Huiqi was shocked and looked at the person who had just been brought up.
This was not a person, but a humanoid thing, This thing is made of straw, Wearing a dress on it, There was an old cat tied around his waist, Above her head was an old hen. Throwing such a thing into the well, it was naturally very foul. The hen would also cry after the old cat cried out. Thus, the sound of flapping its wings and cries sounded a little scary. Linglong walked there and was shocked when she stood there.
“So where did the Empress’ clothes come from?” What surprised Linglong was nothing else, but the clothes that the scarecrow was wearing. It was the Empress’ mountain and river geography dress. It looked a little old, but there was an inexplicable strangeness. Huiqi covered Linglong’s eyes and said, “When did this demon come into being?”
Linglong frowned and thought for a moment, then said, “But it’s just these few days. It’s going to be a mess.” Unknowingly, the eye wind had already swept out from Huiqi’s palm. Looking at the mess on the ground, the old cat and hen were still crowing non-stop. Xiao Zhuozi hurriedly hugged the late Empress and prepared to throw these things into the deep well.
‘”Slow–” Linglong gritted her teeth and walked over. “Find out who sent the big gift. I will return the favor if you don’t offend me.” Xiao Zhuozi agreed, and there was only a strange voice in the dark bamboo forest.
Huiqi grabbed Linglong’s shoulder and said, “There are many concubines in the harem like this. You don’t have to worry about them. It’s just that you want to cause trouble for yourself. If anything happens to you, naturally no one will fight for the throne of the Empress. You have to understand.”
‘”I know. I just want to find out who is behind this. If I know about this, I can use this to attack the people who confuse me.” Linglong’s eyes were filled with divinity. “I know, but I just want to find out who was behind this.” “If I know about this, then I can use this to attack the people who confuse me.”
Huiqi nodded.
The next day, This matter had spread far and wide, Linglong was also seriously ill. In the end, it was still an opportunity for people to take advantage of, Before Fan Chen arrived, Lan Sou Yu had already come over hypocritically. Looking at Ling Long’s pink face and red lips, she could not determine whether Ling Long was lying or was really sick. She smiled and said, “Your Highness, please don’t be disorderly. I heard that your Highness was haunted here last night. Those evil spirits were revealed in front of the Emperor. Did Your Highness see what they were?” Linglong pretended to be surprised and gently rubbed her chest with her hand. “The Empress did not know that it was the old Empress. She had some friendship with this palace when it came to the old Empress. She did not know why she was causing a disturbance at this time.”
Lan Shuyu smiled apologetically and said, “Could it be that you have done something bad? Such dirty things usually don’t come into the palace casually. Your Highness must be careful in the future.” Linglong sat up and looked at Lan Sou Yu. “The same goes for the Empress. It’s good that you don’t laugh.”
Lan Shuyu smiled faintly and pressed down on Linglong’s hand. “Just take good care of yourself, Your Majesty. The Empress has only just begun to conquer the difficult situation. Not only the court, but even the people in the market are feeling nervous. Your Majesty must take care of herself. Don’t let the Emperor and his concubines get in the wrong place during this period of time.” Lan Shuyu smiled faintly. Linglong coughed slightly and said, “The Empress is also the same. She is an ordinary person like me. Don’t attract evil spirits.”
After Lan Sou Yu left, Chen Chong Yi and a few concubines also came over. Seeing Ling Long lying on the bed, Chen Chong Yi couldn’t help but be anxious. He hurriedly placed a duvet on Ling Long’s back and asked, “Is it better? Look at you …”
Linglong smiled. She had already finished her preparations. She looked at Chen Chongyi and Concubine Guyi with great satisfaction. “It’s just a show. My sister wasn’t afraid even when she was alive. Could it be that she was afraid that she would die?” Chen Chongyi sighed and said, “Sister, you must be the queen this time. Otherwise, we will lose our lives.”
Linglong couldn’t help but sigh. After standing up, she said, “It’s good for everyone to make trouble for each other. Don’t let us lose our manners.” As soon as Linglong spoke, the crowd nodded their heads repeatedly. Most of them had a grudge with Lan Sou Yu. If Ling Long was defeated this time, everyone would naturally be properly tidied up by Lan Sou Yu, so they tried their best to come up with a plan.
Lan Sou Yu returned to Changle Palace. She felt comfortable all over, Because of Little Snow, Lan Shuyu went to bed early. Who knew that Lan Sou Yu had just fallen asleep when she was woken up? Lan Sou Yu was not afraid at all. He stood up and hurriedly put on his clothes. He asked for help to see where the commotion was. Knowing that it was in his own palace, he naturally wanted to catch a ghost. However, he didn’t catch a ghost in the second half of the night. Seeing that the sky was about to brighten, Lan Sou Yu finally arrived in the bedroom hall.
Lan Shuyu yawned and fell asleep on the bed. She flipped over slightly. She felt that it was cold beside her. Before she could speak, she could no longer make a sound. She looked at the opposite side in fear. The quilt on the bed slightly bulged and was shaking slightly.
‘”My dear sister, have you forgotten about your sister? You are going to be the queen who will overwhelm the country and the city. Sister is also very worried in the Yin Division. I will help you in the Yang World to consolidate your pet and help you ascend to the throne. Don’t you know your sister?” The man was wearing a rose-purple satin aqua-red brocade jacket. It was clearly the same dress that Concubine Heshu wore when he died. Lan Sou Yu looked at the face again–
