After Chu Tiankuo dealt with affairs of state the next day, the scene of last night played back continuously in his mind.
Chu Tiankuo became angrier and angrier, so he decided to vent his anger!
"Little Orange, deliver my decree: Helian Jue will be punished."
After hearing Chu Tiankuo's words, Little Orange was so afraid that he knelt on the ground and said in a loud voice,
"Your Majesty, please think twice! As Helian Jue is the emperor of the former dynasty, some remaining evils haven't claimed the allegiance and some secrets are still unknown. You shouldn't kill Helian Jue now!"
Little Orange knew that Chu Tiankuo wanted to kill Helian Jue because of the empress. However, troubles would definitely arise from the former dynasty if Helian Jue was dead!
It was not worth letting troubles arise from the former dynasty and hiding the unknown secrets just for a woman! Moreover, the empress would definitel
Hearing that Chu Tiankuo would execute Helian Jue the next day, Tang Xia flushed angrily with her beautiful eyes wide open and thought, "I did it for you! How could you irritate me like this?!" Tang Xia fixed her eyes on Chu Tiankuo, "I have told you not to kill him! What do you mean?!" As Chu Tiankuo turned his back to Tang Xia with his hands behind, he composed himself and said with deep eyes to a servant who lowered his head, "Don't you see that my empress is tired now? Hurry to send her back!" "Chu Tiankuo, what do you mean by saying so? Are you imprisoning me?" Tang Xia questioned Chu Tiankuo loudly with an unconvinced appearance. Chu Tiankuo did not respond to Tang Xia's words. He just squinted at the servant who just stood aside. At this moment, his eyes were filled with extreme coldness, which was quite terrifying. That servant was so frightened by Chu Tiankuo's coldness that he
Another room in the palace. Thin vapor emerged from behind the screen, making the whole room misty. With her beautiful hair loose and wet, Lengmei stood up in the bath tub and stepped out with the help of a maid. As soon as she left the tub, another maid dried her body with a towel and wrapped her in a bathrobe. And another maid wiped her hair carefully with a handkerchief of flower fragrance. Lengmei walked up slowly to her dresser and looked at herself in the mirror. These days she lived a comfortable and carefree life, and her beautiful face turned more charming than before. At this thought, her lips curled to a smile. Her smile turned into happy laughter as she contemplated her increasing beauty in the mirror to her satisfaction. After a while, she asked the maid on her side while combing her hair, "What's the Queen doing these days? What about His Majesty?" One of the maids replied instantly.
Tang Xia was wearing a bright yellow long dress, and her beautiful little face looked solemn. Her jade hand was holding a yellow cloth, which was undoubtedly the imperial edict. "I am here to announce the imperial edict. All of you, kneel down!" Tang Xia's melodious voice sounded with the momentum that people had to surrender. Hearing that there was an imperial edict, people in the execution ground all knelt to the ground. Tang Xia proudly stood there, looking at the people kneeling under her. She spread out the imperial edict and read loudly, "By the mandate of heaven, the emperor decreed hereby that the case of Helian Jue has so many doubts and that he can be temporarily exempted from the death sentence and will be kept in prison until the truth is found out and a conclusion is made. That's all." "Long live! His Majesty." The imperial envoy of the execution ground wiped off his cold sweat and felt very confused. The person who wanted to ki
The woman only said this one sentence, and the whole scene was controlled and quieted down. She was in a silver dress, standing there in such a quiet manner. She looked pure and clean and had a beautiful face which made people unable to violate her. As if looking at her was an insult to her, this person turned out to be the famous female immortal Zui Linglong! People were whispering and discussing her identity. Who was she? She actually dared to ask the imperial envoy to stop at the execution ground. Someone recognized her and shouted with amazement. "Female immortal! The female immortal in here." As if a pot of boiling water had been poured in the crowd, they suddenly became noisy. "Zui Linglong, the real female immortal!” "I didn't expect that I finally saw the living female immortal!" "Female immortal, please bless us!" "Female immortal, please bless us!"
Hearing Zui Linglong's words, Chu Tiankuo turned and saw her standing there quietly. Even if there were people in the ominous execution ground, she looked unique and independent. The sun shone on her like a cover of gold. Even though she was not the most beautiful woman in the world, she was qualified to be the female immortal with her temperament. Thinking of this, Chu Tiankuo suddenly understood why the people in the world called her female immortal, and she was worthy of the reputation. This kind of person had to be treated well and could not be offended. So, thinking through the critical point, Chu Tiankuo nodded and said, "Since the female immortal invites me, even if I'm busy, I must make time for you." Hearing this, Zui Linglong looked calm without any expression as if it was a common thing that Chu Tiankuo agreed to her request. She slight nodded to Chu Tiankuo and said faintly, "That's very good. Then ple
There was the red carpet extending over five thousand meters along with the music of traditional stringed and woodwind instruments and the deafening sound of gongs and drums. And the bride was welcomed by the large sedan chair carried by eight people together with a massive groom's procession. All of a sudden, the streets were full of people who stopped and watched the joyful event. Some people even got here just for the grand wedding from thousands of meters away. Crowds swarmed around the guard of honor, which made the broad road tightly packed at once. As too many people gathered here, it was quite normal for disputes to arise. In the end, the special means was employed for the guard of honor to pass. The local officers and soldiers were sent to solve the traffic problems in the end as numerous people were watching the wedding. So it could be imagined how grand the wedding was. People could see from afar that t
As Lyuyou came with Tang Xia's cloak, she heard someone call for help faintly, hurried to check it out, and found that it was Tang Xia. After inhaling some water, Tang Xia flopped about in the river. When she was quite terrified, Tang Xia finally saw someone coming. "It is Lyuyou!" Tang Xia was so moved as the hope was reignited in her heart. So she shouted, "Lyuyou, help! Help me!" Lyuyou rushed to the water's edge hurriedly. "Your Grace, hang... hang on! I'll have someone help you soon." Lyuyou was so terrified that she went limp and fell to the main road. She shouted in a trembling voice, "Help! Someone! Help!" Seeing the palace lanterns at a short distance, Lyuyou knew there were many people and shouted in a trembling voice. "Someone! Help! The empress fell into the water!" Servants were attracted by Lyuyou's voice and all jumped into the water like dumplings into the pot. They saved Tang Xia fin
"How hateful it is!" Lengmei picked up the exquisite vase on the shelf and smashed it onto the floor. Then she smashed her censer and cosmetics to vent her anger. "Please calm your anger, Your Grace." Her palace maids and eunuchs all knelt on the ground apprehensively and kowtowed. "Calm my anger? How can I calm my anger?" Lengmei shouted angrily, "How could His Majesty ground me without any explanations or reasons? Ha! How powerful he is!" As Lengmei's ruthless eyes were as sharp as knives, she kicked off the chair and toppled the table suddenly with a sneer. "When had I been bullied like this? Who can bully me like this? I cannot take this any more!" Lengmei gasped and was about to go out. "No! Please stop, Your Grace!" Palace maids and eunuchs were all so terrified that they screamed out. Some servants even jumped up and grabbed Lengmei's clothes so that she could not leave. "Damn! L
