The First Empress - Chapter 257

Chapter 257 Everyone Is In Danger

That night, Li Chongyuan had encountered danger alone. Even Linglong and Concubine Guyi Chen Chongyi had received hints and warnings from the black-clothed man. Linglong had almost been assassinated. The next day, everyone arrived at the Heart Nurturing Hall in Huiqi crying.

Huiqi was reading the memorials in school for the Emperor’s son. Linglong walked in. Before Huiqi could see a piece of white cloth on Linglong’s head, he said, “It’s good that you’re here. You can take a look at this memorials. Lan Zhenglin has started to station troops again. What should we do?”

“Since the Emperor can’t release his military power with a glass of wine, then Li Daipao is the only one left.” Linglong carefully watched as she suggested, “Your Majesty, can you allow me to sit down for a while?” Normally, Linglong rarely had such a request. Huiqi did not mind and did not raise his head. He pointed to a seat in front of him. After Linglong sat down, He looked at the memorial more carefully. This memorial was used by a loyal official to impeach Lan Zhenglin. The general principles were similar to Lan Zhenglin’s. They had another place to station troops in Cangzhou. Not only did they recruit troops, they also used the money of the Imperial Court to distribute them. Naturally, they also used the excuse of the Imperial Court to make these people wait outside Jiayuguan.

Linglong knew that the Jiayuguan Pass was the last barrier of the Imperial City. Passing the Jiayuguan Pass was equivalent to entering under the feet of the Son of Heaven. The so-called “beside the bed, how could others be allowed to snore” was also like this. After Linglong finished reading it, she smiled and said without revealing her teeth, “Why does the Emperor think that Li Dai is stiff?” Huiqi also handed over the other one. “There’s also one from Jiayuguan Pass,” he said. “There’s also one from Jiayuguan Pass.” Linglong looked at it with almost dizzying eyes. Then she sighed and said, “First of all, the Emperor must know the reason why these people gathered. They are here to guard the border. The Emperor just let them guard the border. As for the Jiayuguan Pass, it is better for General Han Qi to go. What does the Emperor think?”

Huiqi’s expression changed slightly and he said, “Li Daipao is good, but it’s not good to move too much. We need to sneak around …”

“Your Majesty is capable of bending and stretching. A man is originally capable of bending and stretching. Is there anything you can’t do? Your Majesty?” Linglong asked in a low voice. Only then did Huiqi look at Linglong. She didn’t expect that Linglong’s head was injured. She was shocked and asked, “What’s wrong with you? Did you find a doctor to take a look?”

“A good medicine cannot cure a wronged disease. A windfall is not worth living for a poor man. Your Majesty, this is the wrongdoing of your concubines. It’s fine if Your Majesty doesn’t ask. If you ask, it will be endless.” Linglong kept it a secret. Huiqi was interested and held Linglong’s hand. “Normally, you always come here with high spirits. Even your voice is much softer today. What exactly is the reason? I don’t know if you don’t tell me.”

Linglong said, “Your Majesty, there’s no need to ask. Everyone is the same. Your Majesty will know later.”

Huiqi said, “I hurt myself. Does it hurt?”

Linglong shook her head and said, “I’ve already seen it last night. It won’t matter if it doesn’t leave a scar. However, it’s just on her forehead. Elder sister Chen Chongyi isn’t as well as she was. She got hurt on her face.” After Linglong finished speaking, she said, “Your Majesty, it’s better not to talk about this. Tell me about the rest of the matters. If you want to talk about Li Daipao’s rigidity, then Your Majesty will do it like this.” Huiqi said, “Come and listen to me. It would be good if it is desirable.”

Linglong pressed the corner of her forehead and said, “You can change generals, but the Emperor needs Xu Tu. Don’t let Lan Zhenglin find out that it was for him. Let him understand later that it was for him, that’s all.” Huiqi nodded. Linglong said, “for today ‘s plan is just drag on day after day, “At a certain time, the Emperor still needs to take good care of Lan Zhenglin. Elder Lan is currently in a high position of power and authority. He must be arrogant and unscrupulous. The Emperor naturally needs to be well prepared. He must wait until he has a complete plan before he can arise.”

“Lan Zhenglin is different from Seventh Prince. No matter how formidable Seventh Prince’s army is, it is just a group of people. The mob will come and go quickly. “His usurpation of the throne is merely a restoration, but everyone sees me as a wise monarch. Otherwise, I would have already replaced him. However, this time, it is different. He brought the power of a tiger and a wolf to come here for so many years. It must be a fatal blow, so I have to be even more careful.” Said Huiqi. Linglong nodded her head. At lunchtime, Linglong had eaten a little and was exhausted. Huiqi had just taken a nap and arrived at Qianyuan Palace.

Just as he was watching Eunuch Lu tease Brother Ying, a group of concubines suddenly rushed in. “Your Majesty, please uphold justice for your subjects and concubines, Your Majesty …”

Huiqi’s expression was not good at all. Seeing this group of people arrive, he was completely confused. He waved his hand and Eunuch Lu had already put the Golden Strike away. He stood at the entrance of the hall and said, “Your Majesty is sleeping peacefully. You can go back. We’ll talk about anything tomorrow.” Just as they finished speaking, Concubine Guyi and Chen Chongyi were already kneeling there, crying bitterly.

Hearing this, Huiqi felt a little irritated and angrily said, “Your concubines in the harem, on the other hand, have nothing to do when they’re full? It’s so noisy.” As he spoke, he walked out and saw that all the concubines were injured on their faces. Some of them had their noses wrapped by injuries, some had their foreheads, and some had pigs and dogs painted on their faces. Huiqi couldn’t help but feel embarrassed. He coldly said, “Who will tell me what exactly happened? It’s so neat?”

‘”Your Majesty, this concubine was injured on the cheek by someone who fell from the sky in the middle of the night. She said that if this concubine did not withdraw from the queen selection contest properly, she would be killed. This concubine is scared, this concubine is scared!” Concubine Guyi knelt beside her and said, “Your Majesty, this concubine was injured by someone who fell from the sky in the middle of the night!” Speaking of this, Huiqi naturally remembered Li Chongyuan who was assassinated on the beehip bridge. Li Chongyuan was also injured in the head. These things …

At this time, Chen Chongyi also walked over from her knees. “Your Majesty, take back your orders. Your Majesty’s concubines in Kun De Palace will definitely not dare to go. If your concubines really stay in Kun De Palace, they will naturally be killed. Your Majesty, please take back your orders,” Chen Chongyi said. Seeing that everyone was crying, Huiqi asked, “Who can tell me what is going on? I am like a vajra now, unable to understand what is going on.”

Only then did Concubine Guyi stop his grief, “Someone told me, He said that he could no longer compete, Moreover, he had to ask his concubines to support Lan Sou Yu, otherwise, he would die a miserable death. This concubine was just a woman’s type of fear. She could only timidly agree to her safety. Who would have thought that he would become even more fierce, She said that if this concubine did not agree, she would ruin her appearance, Chenqie agreed with a straightforward tone, In this lifetime, he would not compete with Lan Sou Yu for the second place. Who knew that he was still relentless, Tell this concubine that there is no basis for her words to be written, This concubine was embarrassed to say such a disgraceful thing, “Concubine Guyi didn’t dare to say it anymore. Only then did Huiqi carefully look at Concubine Guyi’s face. It looked like his nose was seriously injured. Huiqi sighed and said,” You leave first. Chen Chongyi, what’s your situation? ”

“This concubine is in exactly the same situation as Imperial Concubine Yi, As that emperor had seen, This concubine was tragically harmed by this person, He told his concubines not to go to Kunde Palace, Chenqie asked the reason, The reason this person told this concubine was that Kun De Palace was the remains of the late Empress. ‘”This is Empress Xu Tu’s position. I must return to my original place and tell my concubine that I will not listen to anything outside. If this concubine tells me what happened last night, it will become even more severe tonight. Please send some guards to protect this concubine and Princess Baoluo.”

Chen Chongyi cried. While crying, she explained what happened last night. Huiqi was furious and said, “You are already old. Even the position of the Empress would not have you. That person is really crazy. I have no other intention to agree to let you stay in Kunde Palace. It is just to see if your palace needs to be properly repaired.” Huiqi waved his hand and said, “Tonight, you can lie high. No one will hurt you. I want to see who is haunting you.”

He pointed at Ning Guta and said, “What are you saying? Even your face was beaten like this?”

‘”Probably because I’m young. Even if I were young, I would probably know. How can the emperor’s Tianzong geniuses control the emperor’s divine judgment? This empress position has always been missed by me. I have never coveted her. It can be seen how crazy this person is. I am also terrified.”

“Don’t worry, no one will hurt you.” Huiqi pointed at Ning Yanliu. “So, are you like her?”

Ning Yanliu explained that he was crying and making trouble. Huiqi felt like his heart was in a mess. He made these people retreat. He called Linglong over and pointed at the wound on Linglong’s forehead. He said, “Tell me, there are so many people here. The one I’m most worried about is you.”

“I don’t want to be jealous. I don’t believe that I can’t hold Ying Baotai in this state. If I really can’t, I will naturally fight back with all my might. Will the Emperor allow me to do so?” Linglong said coldly, His eyebrows trembled slightly. Her slanted eyelashes twitched slightly. With a strange coldness, Huiqi said, “You shouldn’t tolerate adultery. You should try your best to bring this mastermind to justice. I can also help you. As for Lan Sou Yu, I don’t want her to take the throne, but I have to be partial to Lan Sou Yu in the court. After all, Lan Zheng Lin’s matters have not been properly settled.”

Linglong sighed, “Your Majesty will do as you please. Your concubines will protect you. What does this mean? Your Majesty, even if I am a wooden chicken, stone monkey, I will not let go of the mastermind behind the scenes this time. Don’t worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter.”

“Actually, there’s no need to say anything. It’s probably because Lan Sou Yu is so anxious that you have to protect yourself …” Huiqi said earnestly. Linglong continued to stick the white cloth on her forehead and said, “Everyone was threatened in one night. What does the Emperor think we should do? Could it be that the harem is also in a bad mood? No matter where Jun Wei goes, there will naturally be people who will profit from this mess. The Emperor-”

“I know. It’s just that things are not as simple as you think. I will think about it carefully. You must not be impatient.” Said Huiqi.

Linglong nodded. Looking at Huiqi, ‘”The Empress should not be too anxious. No matter who the Emperor wants, I will help him. However, the Emperor must not let Lan Sou Yu occupy a high position. Otherwise, the country will be in danger. The Emperor and his concubines, his concubines and his concubines will be in danger.” Huiqi couldn’t help but be angry when he heard this. He swept a cloisonne vase on the table and landed on the ground. “Lan Sou Yu is so bold, I will definitely not let her off lightly!” Linglong hurriedly walked over and helped Huiqi smooth his chest. “Your Majesty, don’t be angry about these things. It’s not worth it.”

“I also know that it is easy to know but difficult to do. Some things are like this. Even though I am the king of a country, there are times when I can’t help but say those words. Do you understand?” Suddenly, Huiqi seemed to have experienced a lot of vicissitudes. Linglong did not want to look at her weather-beaten eyes and nodded. “This concubine knows.” The two of them hadn’t finished speaking when Eunuch Lu had already walked in and said that it was General Han Qi and General Han who requested to see him.
