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
Lengmei was never so tactful. Even though Tang Xia suspected Zui Linglong's involvement in this plot, she had no evidence for the moment. If she went for Zui Linglong now, it was bound to be herself who was going to suffer losses. Should it happen, she would be countercharged by Zui Linglong and got embarrassed. Worse still, it would confirm the accusation that she was a devilish woman, and even Chu Tiankuo would be unable to save her under the pressure from the officials. "Let's go and pay Lengmei a visit. Let's see what tricks they are playing." "Zui Linglong is a calculating person and is not to be trifled with, but she made use of Lengmei, the greatest troublemaker. Now that they have called my bluff, I must get hold of some evidence to my advantage." When she arrived at Lengmei's chamber, Lengmei was having lunch with maids serving at her side. One of the maids accidentally dropped a cabbage leaf on her clothes. With her f
The clear sound of the slap echoed around the deadly quiet chamber, and Lengmei's face was burning with pain. With her face still tilted to one side, she stared at Tang Xia's phoenix pattern gold embroidered shoes. "She slapped me? She slapped me!" The very idea of her getting slapped was repeated in her mind, and she shook her head unbelievingly. "When did I ever suffer such humiliation? When was I treated like this before?" She was filled with rage and abruptly raised her head, her hand about to slap Tang Xia on the face. "Your Grace! No!" Her maid was almost scared to death and leapt over to hold her arm, "No! Your Grace! You can't do that! She is the Queen! She is the Queen!" "Stay your hand! Leave me alone! Stay your hand!" Lengmei glared at Tang Xia with blood-red eyes and struggled in an attempt to pounce on her. "Calm down, Your Grace! If you slap back, you will be in great trou
The old maid knelt on the floor on both knees, her fingers trembling slightly and her face turning pale. After a while, she slightly raised the edge of her lip, her body shivering, and said tentatively. "The altar... Your Grace, where did you learn about it?" The old maid's reaction aroused doubt and curiosity in Lengmei. She asked. "Nothing serious though. I just overheard it from the chat of several maids and felt confused, so I sent for you, and hopefully you should know about it." After hearing Lengmei's explanation, the old maid got less nervous than just now. She calmed down and replied. "It is not serious itself, but the name is not very pleasant. It has been a long time since it last happened." "There should not be anyone who knows about it now, and I was too surprised just now. Perhaps it was a young maid who overheard it somewhere, gossiped about it and disturbed you." Lengmei
It was late into the night. Chu Tiankuo walked into Lengmei's chamber. "Are you happy now?" he said sarcastically as he walked in under the moonlight. "I am very happy." Lengmei was wearing a thin silk robe, her snow-white skin smooth as jade, partly seen and partly hidden under the robe, making her more glamorous than ever. She was sitting on the edge of the bed with curled feet, her snow-white nape standing out in the darkness. She slightly cocked her head and said with a seductive smile, "It is my greatest victory to keep you at my side." "Even though I don't like you, you're still my concubine. I hope you will be discreet and behave properly, and stop being frivolous like a prostitute." Chu Tiankuo's words were full of coldness foreboding a windstorm. "You!" Lengmei stood up abruptly and pointed her hand at Chu Tiankuo. "How dare you! You're just one of my concubines. How dare you be impolite with me?" Chu Tia
