The First Empress - Chapter 322
Chapter 322 Golden Hairpin
Just as Linglong was about to leave, the person behind her walked over again. She was still wearing the same dressing, using the usual threatening action to hold Linglong hostage. “Get me out of here.” Hui Ye’s voice was also steady. After experiencing the separation of life and death, Hui Ye had already been a person for two generations. His actions were even more watertight. There was even more caution in his words of solitary courage. This made Linglong know that if she wanted to deal with Hui Ye, she had to plan everything out, but she couldn’t act too hastily.
“If you point your sword at me like this, how do you want me to take you away?” Linglong remained unmoved. Hui Ye really did not expect, Linglong was actually able to counter the threat, He was clearly the one with the sharp weapon, However, it was also him who was threatened. This ironic situation made Hui Ye at a loss. The reason why this woman was able to stay by the Emperor’s side for the eighth year without moving like a mountain seemed to be because of someone else’s superiority. Especially with those burning eyes, no one would have the chance to hurt her at all.
“If I let you off, you can call Blood Droplet over. This king is only using static braking and does not want to create any complications.” Hui Ye said. Linglong faintly smiled. The smile at the corner of her mouth was as beautiful as a Youbra flower. “Do you think this palace needs blood droplets to kill you? Do you believe that there are traps everywhere in the palace?” Linglong gently pressed her hand against a protrusion on the stone in front of her and said, “Seventh Prince, why don’t you give it a try?”
Hui Ye did not know what this button was for. He quickly removed the dagger from Linglong’s chin. Linglong still did not leave. Hui Ye asked, “Are you still not leaving?” Looking at the large area of lanterns and torches behind her, Linglong knew that Li Chen had come to patrol the night. She said, “I can’t leave anymore.”
‘”You–” If it weren’t for Linglong’s delay just now, Hui Ye would have already left, but Linglong left Hui Ye helpless. “This palace wants to kill you, but I don’t want to kill you like this. This palace has never liked others to work for you. This palace will save you. You, a dignified Seventh Prince, have escaped death more than once. Could it be that you are still afraid of this time?” Linglong’s tone was somewhat mischievous and mischievous. Hui Ye felt even more ashamed of himself and lowered his head. Linglong smiled and said, “Since you can’t leave now, why don’t the Seven Kings trust me again?”
Hui Ye had no choice but to believe Ling Long, because the torch dragon behind him had already arrived here and was already standing there. Li Chen walked over and said, “Empress, what are you doing here?”
Linglong glanced at the water surface and said, “I just saw the lotus flower here and dropped the golden hairpin in the water. I asked Qin’er to find something to salvage.”
Li Chen said, “He Zu Dao Zai, you and you go into the water to find a golden hairpin for the Empress.” The two soldiers had already arrived at the edge of the pond and were about to go down. Linglong said, “No, someone is helping me find it.” Hui Ye pointed to Hui Ye beside him. Hui Ye was shocked. He didn’t expect Linglong to tease him at this time. Hui Ye didn’t say anything and didn’t move like a sculpture. Linglong smiled and pointed at him. In such cold weather, it was really a bit fun for an enemy who hated him so much to fish for something unnecessary in the water.
“Why don’t you hurry up and go?” Li Chen walked in front of Hui Ye. Hui Ye was trembling with fear, but his gaze was still somewhat frightened when he saw Li Chen. He drilled into the pond that was mixed with dirt and muddy water. The fire shone like night. Linglong was afraid that the Emperor would notice it for a long time, so she could stop it. She smiled and said, “Haven’t you found it yet?”
“I can’t find it-Your Highness later-” Hui Ye said as he began to grope around. Linglong smiled as she looked at Hui Ye and Li Chen in front of her. “You guys should go on a night patrol. I don’t think I’m going to find it here.” When Li Chen was about to leave, He suddenly glanced at Hui Ye, This glance almost made Li Chen certain that the person Linglong was teasing right now was not some cat or dog. It was Hui Ye, the once famous Hui Ye. Hui Ye, the one where the war between the ruling and opposition parties raged on and the people suffered immensely. It was Hui Ye, especially those eyes that were eyeing him covetously. His pupils were almost shining with a flame. This flame was the big fire four years ago, right?
The fire was like overturning the furnace of the Zhurong clan in the Nine Heavenly Palaces. The tickets were rolled up and burned, licking the huge doors of the Qianyuan Palace bit by bit. After the fire was completely burned, could Hui Ye really miraculously disappear? Li Chen walked in front of Hui Ye and was about to take off his mask when Linglong walked over and stood in front of Li Chen.
“This human form is so crude that it is not convenient to reveal it in its true appearance. Why should the general be so aggressive?” Linglong’s words made Li Chen even more certain that this person was the person who escaped from the capital four years ago, so what kind of person was buried in the tomb of East Radiance Mountain? When he thought of this, he couldn’t help but break out in cold sweat. Those hands did not stop because of Linglong’s resistance to drinking. Instead, she reached forward. Hui Ye stood motionless in front of her. In an instant, the few of them were like sculptures, forming an inexplicably nervous aura within the torch. Linglong said, “General Li, this palace has always done things for my own good. You don’t have to worry about the matters here. Quickly go ahead and patrol the night.”
Li Chen was puzzled, but he quickly said, “Your Highness, there is no need to be afraid. If this person dares to threaten Your Highness or touch one of her fingers, I will definitely not forgive him!” Linglong smiled, her face was like Fu Rong, her eyebrows were like willows. “General, just go yourself. This palace is here to protect you.” The eyes of the people in the pond revealed an inexplicable sense of gratification and respect. Hui Ye did not expect that she would let him off so easily. However, Hui Ye knew that since she could let him off so easily, she would naturally be able to catch him back casually.
Li Chen left, But the pressure Li Chen left behind and the burning light in his eyes still hadn’t left, Hui Ye walked out of the lake with a “hehe” sound. Linglong had only hinted a moment ago that Li Chen would capture Hui Ye. Linglong was not moved by sympathy. She would still need Hui Ye in the fight with Lan Sou Yu’s cronies in the future.
At this time, you can’t use your emotions.
“This palace wants to let you understand one thing. The golden hairpin fell into the lake. It is yours after all. Either it is yours or the monkey fishes for the moon like you. You should understand this principle. Seventh Prince should be more sour and bitter than ordinary humans in both lives. You mustn’t disappoint this palace.”
Hui Ye smiled coldly and said, “Your Highness is a capable person. This king has already thought of all means to win over Your Highness. Your Highness alone has 100,000 Guards Legion Corps left.”
Linglong looked at the sky and said, “The laborers are controlled by others, and the laborers are governed by others. This palace is no different from ordinary people.” He said, “Leave early. This palace can let you off this time. The next time, there will be no such good luck. You should know that this palace is also a person who will definitely repay you for your grievances. This palace and His Highness complement each other and have similar achievements.” After Linglong finished speaking, she left on her own. As for the golden hairpin, it was a fake matter. It was a waste of time to think so much.
It was destined to be an unusual night, Linglong walked to the front. She reached out and touched her cheek. Her face, which was even more charming than peach blossoms, was slightly pale. She had always been bold and courageous. After all this time, she had become the mainstay of the turbulent river water. All the storms were just a passing cloud. Linglong knew that she could stand firmly and would continue to stand steadily.
After crossing the Spring Wave Bridge, Qin’er greeted him. Linglong had already told Qin’er that she didn’t need to follow her, so she walked back alone. Qin’er glanced sideways at the back, but before she could say anything, Huiqi’s shoulders were already on the fork of the road beside her. Linglong felt bad, so she was in a dilemma for a moment, so she could only bow first.
Huiqi bowed from his shoulder and didn’t say why he came. He looked down at Linglong condescendingly and said, “Let’s talk inside.” Linglong looked behind her, could it be that Li Chen …
No, Linglong always looked at people with great accuracy. Li Chen shouldn’t be such an ungrateful person. After all, he had saved him, so he wouldn’t. Linglong clenched her fists and observed Huiqi’s expression. However, she rarely looked at Huiqi’s expression without restraint. Linglong knew better than anyone else. If she wanted to know Huiqi’s heart, she couldn’t look at Huiqi’s expression. This person’s mind was like the Netherworld. It was too deep and unbelievable.
Linglong took a cup of tea from Qin’er and walked to Huiqi’s side. The pearls on his head shone with a particularly dazzling light in the candlelight. Red Crispy Hands, Yellow Vine Wine, But then he handed it to Huiqi, It was unknown if Huiqi was unwilling to continue or if Huiqi deliberately missed the right direction and touched the teacup. Linglong was also a prophet. She put her wide-robed sleeve in the air and did not spill a single drop on Huiqi. Linglong hurriedly apologized, but Huiqi’s hand still stopped in mid-air.
Linglong started to feel a little scared, “This concubine is going to change her clothes.”
Linglong glanced at Eunuch Lu with her eyes. Eunuch Lu stepped on the small steps and prepared to follow Linglong out. Linglong’s heart was in chaos. She could only seek medical treatment in a hurry. Eunuch Lu had always been an indispensable person in the Western Bureau. If Eunuch Lu could help her, then it would be quite good. As a result, Eunuch Lu had just taken a step forward and was stopped by Huiqi. “The Empress, go change her clothes. What are you going to do as a eunuch?”
“Old servant–old” Eunuch Lu didn’t want to touch the bad luck, but Linglong said disapprovingly, “Your Majesty, it’s just that this concubine is in a bad mood. I want to ask Eunuch Lu where did this concubine offend the Emperor or, or did someone offend the Emperor? Don’t be angry, Your Majesty.” Linglong looked at Huiqi’s stiff face and couldn’t help but lose confidence. When she was about to turn around, Huiqi said, “There’s no need to change. Wait here.” Linglong’s bright red lips rose slightly. She immediately disguised herself as a faint smile. In order to make this smile look as if nothing had happened, dust had already fallen from her heart. No matter what, she … had to be steady. Even if today’s matter was exposed, she was not afraid. At least Huiqi would need her. No one would kill her right-hand man if she did not succeed.
Linglong dared to gamble. Huiqi would not do such a thing as relatives hurting enemies. It could not be that she would not do it.
‘”Wait for Li Chen to come–” Huiqi suddenly said. Linglong really didn’t know whether she should cry or laugh. Li Chen, could it be that she really saw the wrong person? Li Chen had just disappeared for a while, and he had already gone to ask for rewards so quickly, so there was no need for him to be so quick, was there? Linglong thought for a while and a dozen thoughts collided in her mind like wild horses running out of control. She wanted to give Qin’er a glimpse and ask her to find a few reinforcements, but it didn’t seem possible. She could only hold her head and wait.
