The First Empress - Chapter 311

Chapter 311 The Night Before the Conferment
Mirror appearance, shadow under the moon, partition curtain, awakened from sleep.

Linglong spent the night alone in Qianyuan Palace. This was the first time Linglong slept alone in Qianyuan Palace from the hidden residence to the imperial palace. She could not sleep peacefully. She would never forget that the Crown Prince was pulled out from here and never returned after being pulled out.

That sporadic howl and explosive jump made Linglong remember that she had no other choice but to kill him like this. She was not afraid that Hui Ye’s matter would be leaked, she was only afraid that Xie Yunxiao’s matter would be exposed. After all, Xie Yunxiao was here to protect her. Linglong looked at the heavy blanket on her body. The golden dragons on the blanket were dancing wildly, shocking and beautiful.

Linglong carefully looked at the surrounding furnishings. Beside her was a table. There was a mirror on the table. Linglong looked at the mirror. In the mirror, she had just opened her sleepy eyes. Her eyebrows remained motionless, and her lead pins were filled with innocence.

Linglong looked at her neck and other places. She was no longer a young girl. This was a wall of perverted lust. If she wanted to be smiled at by the Sovereign King, she had to know that she had to have the capital. Linglong knew better than anyone the reason why she was so beautiful when she flicked her finger. Every time Linglong thought of this, she felt a slight pain in her heart. She didn’t have time, she didn’t have time. It was best if she could leave the imperial palace with the green curtain and the golden golden palace wrapped in brilliance.

Suddenly, Linglong slightly rotated the mirror and a person appeared inside. This person was Hui Ye. He slowly walked over. Linglong felt bad and hurriedly turned around to hide under the cloud couch. She quickly put the pillow under the quilt and listened to the movements outside with breath held concentration. A person’s footsteps slowly walked over. Just as they were about to reach the bedside, they slightly froze for a moment before disappearing. Then, another person walked over. This person’s footsteps were relatively soft. It was obvious that he was proficient in inner martial arts. He walked two steps to the side of the cloud couch. He was probably looking at the quilt.

Linglong knew that it was impossible for her to survive like this. These Jianghu people had many tricks. As long as they couldn’t find her in bed, they would definitely want to find her in another place. Linglong was so anxious that she held the golden phoenix hairpin that the Emperor had left her. At this moment, Linglong suddenly felt nervous. Did Concubine Guyi come over to avenge the Crown Prince of Xi and the Crown Prince, or was it someone else?

However, Concubine Guyi did not know any martial arts. Not many people were able to walk straight through the Qianyuan Palace. Only a few of them were able to walk here like this. The guards outside were not private dead people. This point was even clearer. Linglong held the golden phoenix tightly. She only felt that a part of the golden phoenix was almost connected to her skin and flesh. It was faintly painful. It was clearly a cold golden ornament, but at this moment, there was an inexplicable scorching heat in her hand.

Because of her petite body, it was easy to hide. Linglong carefully looked at the pair of boots. It was a man.

This pair of boots slowly arrived at the cloud couch. Then, it immediately uncovered the wood beneath the cloud couch. Linglong knew whether it was a blessing or a curse. It was a curse that could not be avoided. It was always necessary to come. Even if you tried to dodge, it would be useless. Linglong straightened her heart and stabbed out the hairpin in her hand.

In the blink of an eye, someone grabbed the hairpin and wrist. Linglong knew that if this move did not work, she would be doomed. But Linglong wanted to see who this person was. Linglong knew that her chances were slim. This person was not masked. Only then did Linglong see clearly that it was Xie Yunxiao. Her heart immediately felt much more comfortable and she hugged Xie Yunxiao tightly without saying a word.

Xie Yunxiao’s sleeve had the fragrance of a hollow orchid. Shanshan walked over and gently held Linglong’s wrist. Linglong was finally not nervous anymore. The hairpin fell to the ground. Xie Yunxiao picked it up and gently pinned it on Linglong’s hair. Linglong’s face finally brightened. Xi Ning smiled peacefully. Xie Yunxiao held Linglong’s hair gently in his hand.

Linglong stroked Xie Yunxiao’s clothes. The clothes Xie Yunxiao wore were very thin. It was almost Luo Xiu’s first order. Linglong rebuked, “Why did you come here so quickly? How did you guys get in here with so many guards?” Xie Yunxiao lightly tied a knot in her hand and let go, saying, “I miss you.”

Just these three words made Linglong suddenly cry like rain. Her shoulders gently shook as if the big red peony on Luo Qi Wenxiu was about to shake down. She looked at Xie Yunxiao in the darkness again and saw Xie Yunxiao’s eyebrows were as distant as a mountain. He was also looking at himself at the same time. Her beautiful crescent-like eyebrows twitched slightly. She held Xie Yunxiao’s hand with a charming manner like the wind and said, “Wear it thicker when you miss me in the future.” The two of them had never been so close to each other in the darkness. Xie Yunxiao smelled a fragrance that only women could smell. He couldn’t help but laugh and said, “It smells good.”

Linglong smiled and said, “Don’t joke. Sit down and let’s talk.”

Xie Yunxiao and Linglong sat beside the cloud bed. Linglong’s bright eyes looked at Xie Yunxiao who was standing in front of her. Xie Yunxiao smiled and said, “It’s like you don’t recognize me anymore. I just came to see you. I knew that you were alone in Qianyuan Palace tonight. The Emperor went to Beauty Shao’s place immediately. Only then can I come.” When Xie Yunxiao explained this, Linglong thought that the Emperor had recently been lucky enough to have another woman. She immediately became a beauty and smiled, “It’s none of my business where the Emperor is going. I just want to ask you, did you really miss me this late at night?” Linglong smiled and said, “I am us …”

Xie Yunxiao held Linglong’s hand and said, “Actually, I just wanted to come over to see you. After all, Xi He and the Crown Prince were just killed today, and Princess Zhenxi went back again. It’s a troublesome autumn. I wonder if she took advantage of the chaos to hurt you.” However, Xie Yunxiao looked at Linglong’s enchanting face and her beautiful eyes, saying, “However, you are really powerful. There is the Empress, Royal Teacher Mu, and now Xi He in front of you. These people are all scared by ghosts, yet you have a way to subdue them all.”

‘”The wicked always have the wicked grind–” After Linglong finished speaking, she felt a little disappointed. Looking at the darkness outside, she seemed to be defending herself, but what she said was not the slightest intention of defending herself. “I am a wicked person. To subdue a wicked person, I must be a hundred thousand times more wicked than a wicked person, do you know? I have never felt like a good person. For some reason, I have no principles. No is no. ”

Ling Bo’s jade feet trembled slightly in the air. Xie Yunxiao smiled and said, “Are you very nervous?”

‘”No–” Linglong said firmly. Xie Yunxiao pointed at Linglong’s trembling toes. Linglong put them away and remembered something. “Tell me something. Did I help you today?” “I mean, Hui Ye, his current status in the palace is quite special. I should be the one who helped him. Actually, you guys have always been in a dilemma about the throne. Anyone can take such a seat, right?” Linglong glanced at the dark distance. The figure that had just walked over had already disappeared. However, Linglong still smiled faintly. Liu Mei Ruyan trembled slightly and said, “Actually, you can tell Hui Ye that there is no need to fight openly and secretly. The throne has always been occupied by virtuous people. Emperor Huiqi did a good job.” Linglong said sincerely. At the very least, Huiqi did not cause chaos in the world. It could be seen that she had worked hard for so many years, sacrificed her ego, and achieved the unification of the world for ten thousand years.

“These things are not something we can grasp. The Seven Kings are back. The one in the Mausoleum last time was not Hui Ye. The real Hui Ye had already left when the Qianyuan Palace was burned down. You didn’t see it at that time. The last one who died … was a substitute.”

Xie Yunxiao gently patted Linglong’s back, but he could clearly feel her back trembling. Looking at Linglong’s dazzling face, Xie Yunxiao said, “It’s good that you know. We don’t have to worry about the change of dynasties. When the time comes, I just want to take you away.”

Linglong nodded and wanted to say something. Suddenly, the bells and drums rang outside. Linglong heard the noise outside and knew that someone was causing trouble outside. She hurriedly pushed Xie Yunxiao. Xie Yunxiao coldly looked outside and said, “Whatever should come is always coming. Why don’t I take you away now?”

“Big Brother Yunxiao, I haven’t avenged yet. I haven’t-” Linglong looked at Xie Yunxiao pleadingly. Xie Yunxiao suddenly softened and walked over with a faint smile. He gently stroked Linglong’s soft and elegant hair. “Don’t worry, I’ll hide it.” Then she walked to the pillar in front and hid it. Linglong quickly closed her eyes and slept on the bed.

The room was filled with orchid smoke. Xie Yunxiao could not help but feel his heart sink when he smelled this scent. He sometimes laughed at himself for being affectionate, but for Linglong, it was all worth it. After the commotion outside, Linglong hugged her knees and sat on the bed. He trembled slightly. Then the palace door opened, Two people walked in, one on the left and one on the right. Two bright yellow lanterns illuminated a faint light in front of them. Huiqi walked over from behind. From the light, one could see Huiqi’s bright eyes and thin eyebrows. Although it was in the darkness, Linglong could still see Huiqi’s hurried footsteps. Huiqi walked over in three or two steps. Linglong saw Huiqi walk over and rushed over. She also hugged Huiqi in her arms.

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty” Linglong cried out to Huiqi in panic. Huiqi held Linglong’s hand and patted Linglong steadily. “It’s good that you’re fine. Just now, an assassin came to Kunde Palace.”

“Kunde Palace?” Linglong knew that the Kun De Palace had been filled with moonset beams since the late Empress left. Now that Chen Chongyi was living in the Kun De Palace, she was afraid that Chen Chongyi would be busy. Linglong hurriedly asked, “Sister Chongyi, is there anything wrong?” Huiqi smiled and said, “It’s good that you’re fine. Why are you still asking people?”

Linglong held Huiqi’s hand and felt that Huiqi’s fingers were cold. It was as if she was holding a cold piece of ice. “Your Majesty, you …”

“I can’t sleep well today, just like you. The ones in this palace who can’t sleep well tonight are not me and you, right? Compared to Concubine Guyi, I can’t sleep well. I’m sorry, Concubine Guyi.” As Huiqi spoke, he walked over and suddenly looked alertly at the bedside. Because Huiqi’s cloud couch was soft and velvety, he could see a mark on it. This mark was clearly made by someone who had just sat down.

Linglong knew that Huiqi could tell that someone had come here. She hurriedly said, “I was scared just now, so I sat there all the time. I wanted to find the Emperor. I heard that the Emperor is with Shao Beauty, so … so …” Linglong blushed. Huiqi smiled and said, “Beauty is like a flower across the clouds. I only have you in my heart. Don’t think too much. I will accompany you now.” Suddenly, Linglong subconsciously glanced at the corridor. There was Xie Yunxiao hiding there. Wouldn’t Xie Yunxiao be unable to escape at this time? Linglong was embarrassed for a moment and said, “Your Majesty, this concubine wants to take a look outside.”

“Oh?” Huiqi asked, “What’s out there?”

Linglong said, “I wanted to go out just now, but I didn’t have the guts. Now that I have the guts, I want to go out and take a look. There was someone walking outside just now, why don’t the Emperor accompany me to take a look?” As Linglong was about to leave, Huiqi patted Linglong’s shoulder and said, “Deep into the night, the wind and dew are heavy. What are you going to see? The blood droplets are here to protect you. What can you have?” Linglong nodded and said, “Your Majesty, rest early.”

Blown out the candle.
