The First Empress - Chapter 285

Chapter 285 Concealed Pearl

The political arena was sinister, Linglong was like an arrow returning to her heart. She knew better than anyone that she shouldn’t have interfered with the rear position.

“Your Majesty does not need to give me such a position. If I like it, I will naturally fight for it with all my might.” Linglong’s eyes twirled slyly, and she was afraid that Huiqi would think nonsense. She added, “Besides, even if this concubine was in the upper echelons, she still had a bad reputation. Isn’t she going to let people talk about it later?”

“Who doesn’t talk behind their backs? Who doesn’t talk behind their backs?” Huiqi held Linglong’s hand and slapped her knee heavily with her other hand. A row of blue sea clouds under her bright yellow clothes surged like a thunderbolt that broke through the darkness and brought the dawn and dawn.

“Your Majesty-” Linglong turned around gently. The long skirt immediately dispersed, The tassels in the golden phoenix’s mouth above her head shook slightly. “This is a troublesome autumn. Your Majesty, please don’t give Linglong a high position. Your Majesty is very knowledgeable about the world. Princess Zhenxi came back to the capital to make a decision. As for what you want to do, Your Majesty will know. It’s to give me a head-on blow. I don’t want to suddenly jump three levels to become the head of the harem.” After Linglong finished speaking, she said, “The Emperor often asks Linglong to think twice. Linglong thought in her heart, it would be better to wait for a while until Zhenxi’s attitude is free of prejudice.”

“Zhenxi?” Huiqi helped Linglong up a little. Linglong had already stood up. “Zhen Xi is no longer the usual ice and snow smart Zhen Xi. This time, Zhen Xi has come back to deal with the royal family. I’m not afraid that Zhen Xi will hear the news, but I’m afraid that Zhen Xi will hurt you. Do you understand my worries?” Hearing this, Linglong felt warm and soft in her heart. “This concubine is not afraid. This concubine has always come to block the water and cover the earth. She is not afraid of her schemes.”

Huiqi patted Linglong on the shoulder. “Zhenxi is really arrogant today. Don’t take it to heart. She is becoming more and more eloquent now. She thinks back to the past.” Huiqi’s voice softened slightly. “Back then, Zhenxi was also omnipotent in poetry, painting, sealing, and knitting. She was also the daughter of the Emperor Clan and had always been nurtured by her. However, she was still a perfect person. Now that she had experienced so many things, it was enough to change a person.” Huiqi stretched out his hand and touched Fu Rong’s slanted hairline. He sighed and said, “Zhen Xi naturally remembered what happened back then.”

“Back then, it was my fault. I shouldn’t have pushed the boat along-” Linglong thought about what happened back then. He couldn’t help but feel a little sad, If it weren’t for the fact that Zhenxi wasn’t someone else’s wife right now, But looking back at the events of the past few years, Without the flames of war, Civilians at the borders hit the earth and song this is accomplishment, Huiqi naturally knew, She smiled apologetically and said, “It wasn’t your fault back then. If it wasn’t for you, Tuoba Khan would have already wantonly mobilized troops. The pressure of the army was either flames of war or countless casualties. At that time, there was no need to talk about marriage. Although Zhenxi felt uncomfortable in her heart, in the long run, she had indeed helped Dali Dynasty stabilize the country for several years.”

Linglong knew that what Huiqi meant was not to blame herself too much, These things were already following the established procedures step by step. They did not cause any breakdowns because of their relationship. Instead, it was because they had formed a political bond between the two countries. Huiqi naturally understood what she meant. She was much happier that Huiqi could understand her.

“But ZhenXi is still young, can’t make a mistake for eternal hate is good, Concubine Mude back then if easy to live, also won’t be back to a hundred years. “This concubine is afraid that Zhenxi will follow the example of the previous car. Zhenxi is a good girl and the Emperor cannot be too harsh on her. After all, Zhenxi and Tuoba Rui are already new monarchs and princesses. They only want a grade. So what if the Emperor gives them to her?”

“I have been living in the Xuan crown for more than ten years, not under the forest spring, I must often huai Lang Temple JingLun, such a woman can’t give a title of imperial concubine Rui Yi, Rui is wise, Yi is the meaning of good deeds, how can she be wise and good deeds, I can’t disobey, you don’t bring up again–” Huiqi will be angry, Linglong was afraid that Huiqi would be enraged, so she hurriedly used another topic to cover it up.

Linglong knew that the gap between her and Zhen Xi was getting bigger and bigger. It’s getting harder and harder to eliminate, It’s impossible to grow virtue and benefit, As for Imperial Concubine Rui Yi, it was like drawing biscuits to satisfy her hunger, Linglong knew that she was a lover who wanted to help someone, but she was unable to do so. The more she thought about it, the more sad it became. Zhenxi must hate her in her heart. She must want to shred herself into pieces. At this final moment, could Linglong really not even ask for a reward?

Linglong’s heart was also sad …

“What’s on your mind?” Huiqi stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Linglong. Linglong quickly regained her composure. Huiqi said, Linglong could only nod her head and say, “Battalion begged for absolute freedom. I don’t blame you, but I definitely won’t give her a Consort Rui Yi. Without a Consort like this, there wouldn’t have been a Consort in the history of the Dali Dynasty.” Looking at the minister, it was still early. Because Huiqi was angry earlier in the banquet, he probably didn’t even eat well. Linglong didn’t want to affect her and Huiqi’s mood because of these things. She asked leisurely, “The Emperor ate a stomach full of anger just now. Is he hungry now?”

“If you don’t tell me that I haven’t felt it yet, then I feel hungry. Now let the kitchen cook some delicious dishes. I’ll have a good meal with you.” Huiqi instructed, and immediately sent someone to do it.

Linglong Yu Huiqi was leisurely talking about something. Linglong wanted to try her best to find some fun in the topic, so she talked about the secret history in the palace. The two of them ate and laughed. Huiqi quickly finished eating. Linglong was also full, so she sent Huiqi away.

After Huiqi left, Linglong was sickly, Sitting in the inner hall, he didn’t say anything, Like a wooden sculpture, Qin’er brought someone over to clean up the table. Seeing Linglong’s worried expression, She hurriedly brought Linglong a cup of Snow Top Hancui. Linglong held the cup of tea. Qin’er said, ‘”What exactly is the Empress thinking? It’s funny that she doesn’t seem to be in a good mood-” Linglong then noticed that she hadn’t changed her posture for a long time. ‘”You don’t know, Zhenxi means to let the Emperor chase after Concubine Xian De today, but the Empress is furious, and I can’t help Zhenxi too much. I’m afraid that Zhenxi will blame me for it afterwards, so I’m thinking–”

“Actually poor state is not, presiding over the situation has been decided, in the harem of the empress is uncrowned king, the emperor has said, let the empress as the empress, although the throne of the palace is used, but according to servant see still don’t help Concubine Mude. After all, Concubine Mude had committed many evil deeds, and even servant was almost killed by the sword. Why would such a person chase after him? ” Qin’er said righteously, Linglong listened, He frowned slightly. “You said it in a well-organized manner, but how could you and I have predicted what would happen outside? Even if Zhenxi did it well, she would not miss this palace. If she did not do it well, Zhenxi would hate this palace to the bone even more.” Linglong sighed faintly. “This palace thinks that it is appropriate to resolve the enemies and not make them, so I plan to help Concubine Mude obtain a title. However, you have also seen the Emperor’s attitude. This matter is even more difficult.”

Qin’er said, “The empress can already think back to the time when ZhenXi just married to the present empress that month is not a piece of paper eight lines of cold and warm sentence repeatedly said, “If it weren’t for the fact that Prince Tuoba Rui was already in a group of wives and concubines, she wouldn’t be grateful to the Empress for hurting her like this. Even this servant would have felt wronged for her.”

“Are you saying that this Human Origin Palace has offended us?” Linglong turned her head. The autumn leaves on the branches still hadn’t fallen on the tree. Suddenly, Linglong felt a slight pain in her heart. Even the big tree knew that she was lingering around her mother at this time, not to mention a person with a fleshy body. The ancients also said that the wild bird in front of the eaves could only leave the cage after death. When Linglong thought of this, she suddenly regretted, “This palace should have left Concubine Mude alive. But even if this palace had intended to leave Concubine Mude behind, the Emperor would not have been able to justify it. He was happy to see people in this world. It was so pitiful.”

Qin’er smiled and helped Linglong up. “The autumn light outside is picturesque. It’s easy for the Empress to walk outside. The concubine forgot about these thoughts. The left is just a matter of the boat reaching the bridge. It makes the Empress look worried.” Linglong could only follow Qin’er outside.

Linglong hasn’t cleaned up since the banquet, It was still a bun of flowing clouds with the Golden Wings of the Water Dan Five Phoenixes waving on its head. The long purple jade wreath hanging from the corners of the golden phoenix’s mouth shook softly as she walked. She walked out like a phoenix dancing in the nine heavens. Just as she arrived at the Spring Wave Bridge, a ball of paper suddenly flew down from above her head. Qin’er thought that it was a hidden weapon that instinctively grabbed onto Linglong’s side. Seeing it was a ball of paper, she hurriedly held it in her hand.

Linglong knew that this paper ball must have been sent by Xie Yunxiao, so she hurriedly opened her mouth to take a look. She couldn’t help but gnash her teeth in hatred. The thin pearl tassels trembled slightly above her head. Qin’er looked at Linglong’s unsightly expression and hurriedly asked, “Your Highness, what is this? Who exactly sent it over?” Linglong put the paper into her sleeve and said, “Take a good look and see where Zhenxi is. Is she with Lan Sou Yu?”

Hearing this, Qin’er hurriedly nodded her head. If Zhen Xi and Lan Sou Yu worked together, wouldn’t there be endless troubles in the future?

Linglong waited until Qin’er had left before she spread out the note and carefully looked at it. From the look on the note, the content was naturally to help her. Her handwriting was strong and penetrating, and Linglong could still recognize it. This was Xie Yunxiao’s handwriting.

Linglong looked around and saw that there was no one around. Naturally, the guards did not find Xie Yunxiao. She felt a little relieved and returned to the Cloud Phoenix Hall to wait for news of Qin’er’s return.
