The First Empress - Chapter 332

Chapter 332 Death Of Lan Shuyu-2
“You want me to choose one of three?”

Lan Sou Yu couldn’t believe what she saw in front of her. She read the edict carefully, Linglong was afraid that Lan Sou Yu would miss it and even handed the torch to Qin’er. Lan Shuyu gently tapped on each word with her fingers. Her lips moved and she chanted. She laughed as she chanted. The beautiful Jade Body who had once been like a Jia Fu actually wanted to put herself to death now and then. Who knew that this matter was unbearable in her heart? Lan Shuyu smiled faintly.

The smile at the corner of his mouth deepened. Linglong looked at Lan Shuyu’s face. Lan Sou Yu’s face was as ashen as ashes. The loess-like face was filled with an inexplicable seriousness and understanding. Slowly, Ling Long extended her hand and handed the vermilion tray to Lan Sou Yu. She had originally thought that Lan Sou Yu would throw away the things inside and destroy them. Ling Long avoided it slightly. After all, it was dangerous to give Lan Sou Yu a knife.

This woman was once seen by Mount Jade, but now, she did not get a smile from the Sovereign King. Actually, it was also possible to forgive Lan Sou Yu. However, the Emperor and Ling Long were unwilling to forgive her. Ling Long could tell from Lan Sou Yu’s face that Lan Sou Yu had forgotten all her worries and had an expression of utter delusion. She looked at Lan Sou Yu again. The imperial edict had already been thrown away by Lan Sou Yu. The dirty water slowly drenched the imperial edict. The handwriting on it became dull. On the other side, Ling Long saw that the paper said, “I bow unbearably. Lan Sou Yu has committed many evil deeds … I admire this …” Ling Long looked at it and couldn’t help but grip her sleeve. The Tian Clan was fortunate, as thin as if it was a piece of paper.

Linglong stared at Lan Sou Yu tightly. Lan Sou Yu stretched out her hand and held the knife in her hand. She said, “This palace still has a sentence for Your Majesty to convey to Your Majesty. Please, Your Majesty must … must … must let Your Majesty know …”

Linglong nodded and looked at Lan Sou Yu. Lan Sou Yu’s face was covered with a cold and fierce smile. That smile was clearly not in her eyes. She looked into Ling Long’s eyes and said, “Tell Your Majesty, I will not blame Your Majesty for this life.”

Linglong was slightly surprised. After all, she didn’t open her mouth to say anything. Lan Sou Yu lifted her lips and said, “It’s more difficult to choose one of the three.” She reached out and gently stroked the bright yellow bottle. Thinking about how Huiqi had prepared these things for her, she felt like she had a hot potato in her hand. She quickly put the bottle away. He looked at the knife carefully, The knife was not sharp, but Lan Sou Yu knew that in this world, as long as it was a knife, one could kill people. She loosened her hand and the knife landed on a tray made of cinnabar. There was also a white silk. Lan Sou Yu held the white silk in her hand and the white silk was dirty. Lan Sou Yu smiled faintly and threw the white silk away.

“Your Highness, why don’t you help me choose one?” Lan Sou Yu looked at Ling Long with a pity look on her face. Suddenly, Linglong felt a little stinging pain in her heart. I don’t know why, In short, that kind of pain was pierced by Lan Sou Yu’s beautiful eyes. Ling Long had always thought that Lan Sou Yu was a person who was afraid of death, but today, she knew that grief was greater than death. When things were in front of her, one person could be defeated by another person in the past. Lan Sou Yu could be said to treat death as if she were returning home.

Linglong was unwilling to come into contact with Lan Sou Yu’s gaze. “If you want to be happy, it is naturally the knife, followed by the poisonous poison, and then the white silk.”

“I see.” Lan Shuyu held the knife. Lan Sou Yu’s eyes became blurry as she looked at it. She wiped the water stains on her eyes. Ling Long coughed slightly and threw her brocade handkerchief beside Lan Sou Yu’s hand. When Lan Sou Yu saw the golden phoenix embroidered on it, it was as if she had seen another knife. “Your Highness, please give me a clean towel.” Linglong asked the jailer to give Lan Sou Yu a clean towel. Lan Sou Yu used the towel to wipe off the dirt on her face and took a light in the water.

As if he was very satisfied, he sighed for a long time.

“I’m very beautiful. Naturally, I’m more beautiful even if I die.” Lan Sou Yu pleaded with Ling Long not to bring the white silk over. Linglong removed the white silk. Lan Sou Yu quickly opened the bottle of poison. After finishing the poison, she stabbed the dagger into her chest. Linglong looked at Lan Sou Yu’s seven orifices bleeding and walked to Lan Sou Yu’s side. She said, “This palace will arrange a burial for you. It will make your mausoleum beautiful. You can rest assured.” After Linglong finished speaking, she reached out her hand to close Lan Sou Yu’s eyes and said, “Someone, collect the corpse of Lan Jiu Concubine.” After a while, a few people walked over from the darkness and respectfully pulled out the knife from Lan Sou Yu’s chest. Then, they wiped the blood off her face cleanly. Ling Long said, “Bring it to the Imperial Temple and give the Empress a good grooming. You must dress up beautifully. This palace will return the decree.” If things are not done properly, I will naturally ask you the only question–“After Linglong finished speaking, she closed her eyes and a sparkling tear fell from her eyes. It just happened to fall into the pond where Lan Sou Yu was lying, so her face quickly shattered into pieces.

“Let’s go out. The Yin Qi here is heavy.” Linglong turned her head and Qin’er walked over. Walking beside Linglong, the two of them arrived outside.

As soon as she walked out, she saw Huiqi standing under the vine. Huiqi was dressed in a bright yellow Gun Dragon robe. Linglong looked at Huiqi, who was covered in flowers and small noodles. She couldn’t help but smile bitterly and walked to Huiqi’s side. Huiqi asked, “Are you alright?”

Linglong nodded and said, “Your Majesty’s sacred will naturally needs to be carried out properly. As long as Your Majesty can rest assured, I still have one more thing I want to convey to Your Majesty.” Linglong looked at Huiqi. Huiqi said, “I was originally a blessed person, so I should cherish my blessings. However, I have never done anything good in my life. It is only natural for Lan Sou Yu to hate me. There is no need for you to say it.” ‘”Your Majesty, Lan Sou Yu did not say that she hated the Emperor. Lan Sou Yu only told her concubines to tell the Emperor that she did not hate the Emperor from beginning to end.” Ling Long smiled sadly when she saw that Huiqi had such a deep preconceived prejudice towards Lan Sou Yu. Huiqi couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows. “Is what you said … true?”

Linglong said, “Really.”

Huiqi pushed the jailer aside and was about to rush inside. Linglong reached out and grabbed Huiqi’s sleeve. “Your Majesty, we’re already there.” Only then did Huiqi turn his head and lose his soul. “Yes, I’ve already gone. I can’t renew Lan Sou Yu’s life from King of Hell. I’m confused.” Linglong did not know where Huiqi was confused. Did she kill Lan Sou Yu because she thought she was confused or did she really regret killing Lan Sou Yu?

Or was he still confused that he knew that Lan Sou Yu was already dead and was still obsessed with not changing his mind to go …

Linglong thought a lot for a moment, but in the final analysis, she only said, “The Emperor did not do anything wrong from beginning to end. All these bad things were done by this concubine, and I am willing to bear all the blame.” Huiqi knew what Linglong meant and nodded. Linglong smiled slightly, “Your Majesty, please bury Lan Sou Yu properly. This way, the concubines will be spared the sinister virtues of their subjects and concubines.” Huiqi nodded. Linglong looked at Huiqi and said, “Your Majesty, go back and have a good rest. Now that the world is peaceful, everything is fine. Your Majesty can rest easy.” Huiqi closed his eyes and walked away.

Linglong looked at Huiqi’s back and said, “It has been almost ten years since I entered the palace. I have been facing the Emperor day and night. I still don’t know what the Emperor is thinking.” Qin’er smiled. “Your Majesty’s heart is unfathomable. Why would Your Highness have to guess at the Divine Will?”

Linglong asked, “Do you think the Emperor will agree to this palace if this palace wants to leave?”

‘”Absolutely not. According to the Emperor’s interest, these words are the root of the trouble. Your Highness should still seek to advance steadily. Although things will be calm in the future, it will be even more difficult for you to take each step. Your Highness must take each step step as a camp. You can’t lose because of a small loss. Then wouldn’t all of this be lost?” After Qin’er finished speaking, she smiled and Linglong nodded.

“As soon as I entered the palace, I knew that the heavens and the earth are going against each other, so there’s no need to seek more prosperity. You’ve grown quite a bit over the years.” Qin’er smiled faintly and said noncommittally, “In order to avoid suspicion, it is naturally inconvenient for me to show myself. You must be careful, Lan Sou Yu’s funeral cannot be careless.” After Linglong finished speaking, she said, “Are you ready for the things over there?” It turned out that Linglong had asked Qin’er to inquire about Hui Ye and Xie Yunxiao the day before. Qin’er said, “Left is only a few days. This is an opportunity for the Emperor to worry about internal and external troubles.”

Linglong naturally knew that this was an opportunity. However, if she wanted to seize this opportunity, it would be an opportunity to experience and turn around. If she missed it for no reason, then it would be nothing. Everything was built on the sand. Linglong frowned as she looked at Qin’er. Qin’er pointed at the city wall in front of her and said, “Your Highness, there is someone blowing on the Vermillion Bird Sect. Listen.” From afar, Linglong could see Xie Yunxiao’s figure standing upright in the setting sun. She didn’t know why Xie Yunxiao hadn’t been chased away by any soldiers. Perhaps it was because these people who had been guarding the city gate for many years also felt lonely in their hearts.

They needed such a person to vent their frustrations, and this was best not to happen anymore.

“Has the Emperor gone to the Qianyuan Palace?” Linglong asked, and Qin’er nodded. “Eunuch Lu took His Majesty to the Qianyuan Palace.” Linglong pointed at the tall and thin figure in Xi Yang’s halo and said, “Let’s go find Big Brother Yunxiao.”

Qin’er glanced at the sky. Although it was the Golden Crow West that had fallen into the nest, it was still in broad daylight. Could it be that the Empress really didn’t want to die? Qin’er struggled, her eyes filled with unusual worry as she looked at Linglong. Linglong smiled disapprovingly and said, “Don’t be afraid, the Emperor won’t come.” Qin’er helplessly brought Linglong to Vermillion Bird Sect. Xie Yunxiao’s purple clothes were flipping slightly in the wind. Bu Mingyue was at the Heavenly Quarter, and he was at the River Pavilion.

Linglong followed the steps paved with bluestones to the top of the city wall step by step. Xie Yunxiao was blowing Tao Xun alone in an empty space. Linglong took out the jade flute on her waist and began to play. The sound of the flute mixed with the sound of blowing Xun. After a long time, a clear sound came from the sky. Linglong raised her eyes and saw that a snow-white egret had already flown over from the city tower.

The egret gently shook its body. Soon, it was filled with an arrow tower and a few others landed around them. Linglong did not expect to attract so many creatures. She could not help but smile slightly. Xie Yunxiao also smiled. The two of them slowly approached.

Linglong looked at Xie Yunxiao and said, “It’s good that we can live together for generations. Life is like this, isn’t it?” Xie Yunxiao nodded and looked at Linglong who walked out of the herd of egrets, saying, “Your Highness, please stay.” Linglong glanced at herself and then at Xie Yunxiao. They were dressed so badly that Linglong could only sigh from afar. This person was close but far away from the horizon.
