Chapter 2022: Calm and Collected?
walk away slowly.At this time, Qin Madam looked at the steward.The steward immediately turned around and rushed to An Xuetang's side, blocking her way.An Xuetang narrowed her eyes, this steward had li...After hearing Mo Yunjing's words, the emperor remained silent for a long time before gritting his teeth and speaking to Mo Yunjing, "Since you already know that the jade seal is in Bai Feng's hands, I now command you, no matter what, spare no effort to kill Bai Feng. And... be sure to get the jade seal from him."
Hearing the emperor's matter-of-fact order, An Xue Tang almost burst out laughing.
Does the emperor think that Bai Guang Palace or Bai Feng are easy to deal with
Although Bai Guang Palace has only tens of thousands of soldiers under its command, they are the elite troops left behind by the previous emperor. These soldiers are far superior in skill to ordinary soldiers.
One of the Bai Guang Palace's subordinates could probably take on ten Imperial Guard soldiers in a real fight.
If they could be so easily wiped out, how could the Northern Border王府 have suffered so many losses at the hands of those in Bai Guang Palace all these days
< If it was just that, An Xuetang wouldn't have needed to say it at this time. >
The emperor was already furious. If she splashed him with cold water now, it would only fan the flames of his anger.
Mo Yunjing, of course, knew this as well, so in the face of the emperor's order, he only bowed and replied, "My son understands."
After finishing the stories of Yun Rui Shi and Bai Feng, the emperor suddenly remembered what An Xue Tang had said earlier.
He suddenly looked up at An Xuetang, his dangerous ice-blue eyes narrowed, staring straight at her and demanding, "What did you just mean Are you trying to smear Zhi Gui Fei's reputation, or did you discover something"
An Xuetang let out a cold snort in her heart. She knew the emperor would definitely ask about this.
The emperor had already begun to suspect Ji'er, and everything that had happened in the imperial study just now must have seemed full of suspicion to him.
Therefore, the emperor would surely want to find out exactly what happened.
After the emperor asked, Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang subconsciously glanced at each other. An Xuetang raised her eyebrows at this moment and leisurely looked at the emperor and said, "I've already said what should be said and shouldn't be said. Whether you believe it or not is your Majesty's business."
The emperor's eyes were still filled with doubt. He gritted his teeth and stared straight at An Xuetang, suddenly saying, "Since that's the case, dare you swear on your child's life that not a single word you just said was a lie"
"What's there to be afraid of" An Xuetang snorted, saying without hesitation, "Just after Zhi Gui Fei stepped into the imperial study, His Majesty's eyes suddenly became vacant, and his behavior became quite strange."
"He slapped himself out of the blue. Not only that, but Your Majesty also swiftly picked up the broken sword from the ground and was about to stab it into his heart. If it hadn't been for my King of Beijng's timely intervention, Your Majesty would have already harmed himself."
"If any part of what I have said is a lie, then let our entire family be destroyed without burial."
Having said that, An Xuetang’s eyes held a hint of provocation. “Well This time, Your Majesty, are you willing to believe it”
The emperor did not say whether he believed or not. His eyes became clouded, and he suddenly lowered his head, gazing deeply at his own hands.
He remained silent for a moment, as if contemplating something. Then, he waved his hand at Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang, saying, "I'm tired, you may leave."
It was strangely unsettling for An Xuetang to think that the emperor could calmly dismiss them.
But there was no point in wasting any more time here. After she and Mo Yunjing performed a perfunctory bow to the emperor, they turned and left the imperial study.
At this moment, the guards at the door were bowing their heads and pricking up their ears.
Fearing he might miss the emperor's voice.
But these people waited for a long time, and they didn't hear any commands from the emperor in the Imperial Study.
They were astonished, but watched silently as Mo Yunjing and An Xue Tang.
More than just An Xue Tang finding it hard to adapt, even this group of Imperial Guards found it unbelievable.
Is the Emperor today, so mild-tempered
As always, when the Emperor summoned the King and Queen of Beijiang, the three of them would make a great ruckus.
Every time, the emperor would almost be infuriated by the King and Queen of the Northern Border to the point of trembling, and he would gnash his teeth in anger, ordering his imperial guards to teach the King and Queen of the Northern Border a lesson.
Can today's emperor just let the King and Queen of Beijang go
It's unbelievable.
Although everyone was surprised, no one dared to discuss the emperor.
……
Less than a quarter of an hour after Moyun Jing and An Xuetang left the imperial study, the emperor walked out with a gloomy face.
The two eunuchs guarding the door immediately bowed and stepped forward, both wanting to walk over and support the emperor.
At this moment, the emperor shook his sleeves, sending the eunuchs standing to his left and right flying away.
The emperor let out a cold snort and asked, "Where is Concubine Zhi now"
One eunuch hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, the Empress has returned to her bedchamber."
The emperor, clenching his fists, said, "Go, take me to find Imperial Concubine Zhi."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
This eunuch had just about to shout and put on a show, but at that moment, the Emperor suddenly changed his mind. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Wait a moment, I'll go to Kunning Palace first."
The eunuch immediately changed his tune, "Serving the Kunning Palace."
……
At this moment, the Empress was lying on her bed in Kunning Palace. She looked lifeless.
He looked utterly dejected.
When the Empress thought of this, she was furious. The Emperor was going to make her, the Empress, move to another palace for the sake of a new concubine! She couldn't even stomach her meals just thinking about it.
Not only was she unable to sleep or eat properly, but the palace maids and eunuchs she had sent to investigate the news about the new imperial concubine were also silenced.
The newly promoted concubine so brazenly harmed her eunuchs and maidservants. She intended to use this incident to file a complaint against them with the emperor.
Who knows where the emperor's heart had wandered to, he actually thought those eunuchs and maidservants deserved their deaths, refusing to seek justice for his palace staff.
This is just the tip of the iceberg; the emperor even wants the Empress, in all her dignity, to vacate Kunning Palace for that vile woman.
She hasn't come up with any solutions to this problem since it happened.
And her father told her to keep calm and wait patiently.
In order to avoid immediately moving out of Kunning Palace, she had to feign illness today and lie in bed.
The deadline for the Empress to move out of Kunning Palace was approaching, and throughout the day, the Empress anxiously awaited what would happen.
The longer she waited, the more restless and agitated she became.
Just as she was about to ask her trusted confidante to seek out her father again, a voice suddenly rang out from outside the palace chamber, "The Emperor has arrived."
These few words caused the empress on the bed to suddenly sit up in alarm. She turned her head to look at the palace maid standing beside the bed, "Did you hear the sounds outside Did I misunderstand"hough we don't know what tricks he might pull. We still need to find a way to force the worm out of A Tang as quickly as possible."To force out the parasites from An Xue Tang's body, Mo Yun Jing was a...
