"B*stard! How, how dare you..."
Emperor Jingxiao glared at Prince Chen Huanan Xin. In his blank eyes, two cold lights were bursting out.
Although he was stupid, Emperor Jingxiao realized what Prince Chen, his "dim-witted son" wanted.
"Guard, guard! Catch the b*st*rd..."
With trembling hands, Emperor Jingxiao pointed to Prince Chen, anxiously roaring and shouting.
Outside Qinming Hall, there were noises from far to near. Being escorted by several guards, an elegant woman in Phoenix Robe came in.
When Wenren Junzheng saw her, he only softly asked,
"Are you OK?"
The woman slightly smiled,
"I’m fine. Your members of Clan of Swords made a great difference this time."
Emperor Jingxiao frowned and stared at the woman in front of him, as he didn't remember his empress was in such features.
Before Emperor Jingxiao asked, the woman smiled,
The moon had arisen from the forest.The Palace of Da Yi was surrounded by large numbers of the capital army. They joined forces with the Honour Guards and brutally killed the thousands of the Clan of Swords followers who had entered the Palace to assassinate the Emperor.They fought violently in the Palace. The sound of fighting and howling were like waves constantly which mingled together and sounded extremely tragic. The air was filled with the pungent smell of blood.When the concubine Miaoyin led people into the Kunning Palace, the Fourth Princess Huanan Jiyan was awakened by her maidservants Yaoer and Yunjin. They took her out of the Princess' House and hid among the flowers.The night was dark and dreary. Huanan Jiyan was horrified to see many strangers in night clothes walking in and out of Kunning Palace. They rummaged everywhere.Then, a woman in full gorgeous dress entered the main hall of Kunning Pal
On the northern line of Bo Ku, the sky was densely covered with clouds, and the breeze was lingering.After receiving Ji Yaoguang's message, Leng Qingtang immediately assembled the army. Before dawn, he led 150,000 imperial armies and 30,000 Lang Armies to reach Xuede City.From far away, the sentinels of Bo Ku Army saw thick dust rolling on the whitening skyline, like a beacon smoke or a sea of dark clouds, covering the sky amazingly.Getting closer, they suddenly found that at the front of the army, the neatly organized team was actually hundreds of buffaloes covered in red cloth, with sharp knives on their horns. The scene was impressive but strangely funny.The Bo Ku people on the tower looked at each other, wondering what they wanted to do with these buffaloes.Since the enemy army came, they couldn't care about other matters. The commander in chief gave the order to open the gate to face the enemy immediat
The sound of waves woke Gu Yunxi from her deep sleep.The bed curtain was exquisite, and the faint sunlight fell on the purple silk. The dappled light and shadow highlighted the figures of a few carved hibiscus flowers on the window frames faintly.Gu Yunxi got out of bed in doubt, looked around, and found that the furnishings in the small room were luxurious.Where was she? What happened before?The girl closed her eyes, furrowed her brows, and hit her groggy head with her fists, searching every memory segment in her brain quickly.The door opened. Someone walked in in dark black clothes, followed by a damp and fresh cool breeze flowing into the small room.Gu Yunxi was stunned, staring blankly at the facial features of the visitor."...Master?"When she exclaimed in surprise, she suddenly remembered all the past.Didn't the man in front of her have already be
Gu Yunxi fell into the soft silk quilt embroidered with pine branches, and her whole body was instantly surrounded by chilly air.She looked at the cold face close to her with disconcerting eyes."What's wrong?"The man rubbed the girl's cheek with his fingertips playfully. His hand was as cold as porcelain, moving towards her delicate collarbone slowly.Her youthful and delicate skin was facing the morning sunshine. Because of the irresistible coldness, the soft hairs wrapped around her skin stood upright in an instant.He watched intently and asked,"Are you afraid of me?"Gu Yunxi wrapped her upper body tightly with the quilt and looked at his eyes in silence.The gentleness in his handsome eyes was gone, replaced by deep and endless coldness.The man lowered his eyes, trying to lift the front of the girl's upper garment with his fingertips. Seeing her tremb
"Open the door. Open the door!"A rapid knock on the door broke the silence of the night. The assistant of the inn rubbed his sleepy eyes and headed to the outer residence. The moment he opened the door, he was awakened by the crowd of torches."Sir, what's going on?"An officer rushed in with his subordinates, pushing and shoving at the assistant."Who are the people living in your inn? I was ordered to apprehend the criminals of the imperial court. Call out all the guests quickly and let me check them one by one!"The officer pointed his thumb at the bridge of his nose with an arrogant attitude.The assistant smiled flatteringly, bowed, and scraped."Okay. Okay. Sir, I will lead you the way."Soon, the guests in the front residence were awakened from their sleep. After careful inspection, they were found not to be the young man and woman the soldiers wanted.
Gu Yunyao fell sideways with trembling limbs, staring at Imperial Mother Xiao in amazement. She looked sullen and startled. Her fingers trembled and she couldn't say a word anymore.Several eunuchs walked over. One of them carried the Seventh Prince, turned around, and left."I want Her Grace Yu. I want Her Grace Yu..."The Seventh Prince was frightened and started making noise. He raised his bloodshot face on the eunuch's shoulder and his little legs kept kicking. He kept beckoning to Gu Yunyao with his little hands, crying heartbreakingly."Lin'er... Give Lin'er back to me!"Gu Yunyao burst into tears on the spot, struggling to get up, but she was stopped by those eunuchs.Song Qin was shocked. Fearing that her master might get hurt, she stretched out her arms to protect her but was pushed out of the encirclement by a eunuch.Those eunuchs acted rudely and unscrupulously. They pressed
In the backyard of Funeral Palace—Five connecting rooms on the east side were filled with dozens of simple quad tables and backless benches.The eunuchs brought all the concubines here and forced them to sit down in wooden chairs.In front of each person were a set of green porcelain bowls, spoons, and glazed wooden chopsticks.On the table were chicken, duck, fish, and meat, which was a feast of fat things. However, most of the food was so cold that people had no appetite at all.At an important juncture of life and death, who could be carefree to enjoy the cold send-off meal?Gu Yunyao clung to the edge of the table with her fingers with tears on her long eyelashes.With incessant crying in her ears, her brain was also like a mess of cotton.In her life, she didn't know what death was like but she would experience it soon.She recalled that at the age of sev
Escorted by eunuchs and maidservants, Imperial Mother Xiao entered the hall. She glanced at the kneeling people with her phoenix eyes, and then looked at her son."I issue the imperial decree to kill Concubine Yu so that she can be buried alive with the deceased emperor."The woman said simply with fierce in her eyes in an aggressive manner,"When His Majesty was alive, he loved Concubine Yu most. Now His Majesty has gone, she, as a concubine, should do her duty and die for His Majesty."Prince Chen turned a little sullen and helpless.Chuckling and slightly lowering his head, he scratched his inner brows to cleverly conceal his emotions.Putting his hands down, the man calmed himself and gave a wee smile. He held his fists and bowed,"I pay my respects to Mother. What you just said makes sense. However, this time, during the south crusade to appease the chaos of An Guo, Imperial Mother
Terra Nova's ninth year of the Daedalic Years, early spring.Kamakawa Yusui is shocked and annoyed when he receives news of a coup at the Imperial Palace and the imminent ascension of Prince Fuchi Yasutaka to the throne as the next Emperor.Since the Kunhuang Island and Huananhe lost a battle, Kamachi sailors suffered a heavy blow, Kamakawa was forced to take the remaining troops retreated to the south of Kunhuang Island, Tsuneoshima stationed.Unexpectedly, just when he was trying to avoid the previous shame and had been intensifying the study of the new combat program, the country had a great turnaround.Can't think too much, Kamakawa by water immediately point all 10,000 Ying army, lead five Anzai ship and a number of ships, with enough artillery Furlong machine fire speed back to Ying, swore to fight with and Shigeru cuts a high and low winners and losers.One night, as Kamakawa's fleet secretly approached Mizumura Harbor in Kyoto, a thick fog sudde
In the banquet hall of the palace, the fire and candles were bright, four dancing girls lined up, green silk buns, colorful makeup, silk sleeves fluttering and swaying, dancing in a slow and rhythmic dance.Two or three male musicians are not far from them, playing strings, flute, drums, each person's face is calm and solemn, but in the eyes of God duh, seems to have the essence of the aura of a hidden flash.The dinner was organized to celebrate the fifteenth birthday of Emperor Fuchi Masaharu, but due to the defeat of the Terra Nova army in Weihai, many of the entertainments were temporarily canceled, and only the traditional Yehime songs and dances were retained.Profound Ya Qing was the main character of tonight's banquet, at this time he was wearing brand new scarlet damask silk clothes kneeling above the chief belonging to him, looking quiet and enjoying the songs and dances.On the seats to his left were the former Emperor's side consort, Daiji, with h
Terra Nova, Kyoto.As night falls, in a short house in the civilian area, the blind man is anxiously waiting for his mother-in-law to return home from work.She hadn't been back for a day and a night, and that definitely hadn't happened in the past.Could it be that the Ninth Princess has encountered something on her end?Rustling footsteps stopped unexpectedly at the door.The blind man's sense of hearing is much more sensitive than normal people, his eyebrows slightly gathered, and without moving, he got up and lightly rubbed his steps to the wooden cabinet, and touched a sharp dagger from the top of the cabinet and quietly hid it in the sleeve of his coat.The door of the room opened, and by the sound of the footsteps coming in there should be two of them."You're Suigo Show's man, aren't you?"The one who asked the question in Terra Nova was a young man.The blind man turned his head sideways, carefully recognizing the source
A cold wind cut through the long, narrow corridor, and the lights flickered dimly.The man's ragged gasps continued to spill out of the closed wooden lattice barricade door, accompanied by the occasional few hushed cries of pain from the woman."Haru, come on, I'll accompany you to your room."Looking at Yuan Ya Qing's stagnant and godless clear face, Yun Shi's heart seized more than just pain as she tugged on one of his arms.The commotion in the room was in no way suitable for a teenager to be listening in.The teenager's eyes were lax as he took two steps with her, speaking quietly in Chinese: ."...Master, you have to trust me as well...it wasn't Mother and I's idea to march into Da Yi."Yun Shi suddenly became miserable inside, opened and closed his nose and said."I believed you, never had a doubt, and it was for that reason that I traveled across the river and across the sea to meet you in person in Terra Nova."The two co
"Yue Xilou, you traitor shall not die!"Qi and blood surged, and a strong hatred that had never been felt before invaded Yun Shi's consciousness.She jumped up with her eyes heavy with red and lunged at her enemy with all her might, reaching for his neck.Yue Xilou laughed scornfully and kicked her backwards with a flying leg.Yun Shi fell out onto the hard floor a few feet away, choking on blood and letting out a pained _groan_.Wamochi stretched his neck to look at it, grinning imploringly.Tsukishiro looks at the samurai on either side :)"Don't just stand there, take her down and keep her under good guard, she'll be of great use in the future.""Slow down ......"Yun Shi forced to endure the pain of bones about to break trembling climbed up, far away from looking at the abyss Ya Qing, the expression of desolate:"Your Majesty, I have something to say to you, please send the counselor."Empress Yuanya immediately s
The fact that the mute applicant, Yun, who was originally scrubbed out of the test, has been recognized by the Emperor as the Imperial Chef, shocks the entire Grand Cookhouse early the next morning.The cooks and handymen who had looked down on her earlier were now gathered in front of the stove in the cooking room, watching intently as she operated it herself.Even in the past days always rigid board a big white face of apricot leaf female master, this time all people before and after chasing after Yun Shi everywhere running, flattery, mouth like a river, all do their best to please. At sunrise, Yunshi was wearing a green coat and pants, put on a large apron to the stove to do the work.With white flour rolled out and crabmeat and shrimp mince and red fish roe in the filling, the meat buns are pinched out with absolutely thirty-three folds.Chicken breast, corn and green beans are sauteed in oil, thickened with soy sauce and pan-fried wine, and wrapped in so
He is, after all, the Emperor!Following the direction of Master Apricot Leaf's kneeling, Yun Shi looked at the teenager, his eyes filled with astonishment.The standing tasseled crown and the yellow coat are indeed the symbols of the imperial nobility of Terra Nova.But, this young man, he is actually the Emperor."Mute, why don't you kneel down!"The apricot leaf matron raised her eyes to the unresponsive Gu Yunshi and chided."Eh, forget it, forget it ...... Master Chief, you get up too."Meeting Yun Shi's eyes, the teenager's face flushed red and blushed as he explained: ."Granny, I don't mean to deceive you ...... I, I didn't eat well in the evening meal, and I was really hungry just now."Yun Shi's complexion returned to normal, pursed her lips and waved her hand, indicating that she didn't mind.Heh, how could she mind?She was begging for it!The hostess rises obsequiously and comes up to nod at the tee
The night fell slowly, blotting out the last rays of red light in the sky.The entire Western Garden was silent.Cloudseeker stood in the tiny compound under the endless sky, raising his head to look up at the dark inky colors of the night sky.In the field of vision, that heavy darkness seems to carry some kind of adsorption magic, only teaching people to look at a glance, want to look through.She failed the test to become a chef and lost her chance to enter the palace and meet the Emperor.Such a result directly disrupted all her latter plans.After losing her temper for a while, she thought of Hua Nanhe, who is still fighting in the battlefield, Yingyu, who is trapped in the palace of Dayi, and brother Mu Xiu, who is waiting for them to return home.Yun Shi's eyes burned as she quickly regained her fighting spirit.Now is not the time to be discouraged, since one way does not work, then find another way.The hour was already
Terra Nova, outside the Abyssinian Palace, West Court.The large cooking room was busy with players in white shirts and blue pants around wooden cases and stoves.In five days, Emperor Fuchiya's fifteenth birthday will be celebrated, and not only will there be a large-scale celebration dinner at the palace, but an all-day parade and festival will be organized throughout Kyoto."Faster, faster, the hour for the king to pass the meal is almost here, and later on your handmade delicacies will be the basis for whether or not you can stay as a loose cook."The woman in charge, Apricot Leaf, is in her thirties, with a purple shirt and pants, wandering around every corner of the cooking room with a stern look, urging the contestants with her mouth, and repeatedly scrutinizing their cooking techniques with her cold and warm gaze.The twenty casual chef applicants came from Terra Nova folk, both men and women, and most of their referrals were cooks and assistant
