The hall was filled with killing intent. The surrounding palace maids and eunuchs already knelt on the ground and trembled in fear. Once Tao Hong's words were confirmed, none of them who had heard the secret of the royal family would have a chance of survival!
The maidservant Tao Hong fell to the ground clutching her belly. She sensed the solemnity and her face went blank.
Shen Ninghua stood at the side. Looking at Madam Qin's desperate expression, her eyes shone coldly. She and Madam Zhou did not have the slightest connection, nor did she think of having interactions with the Second Prince in any way. Madam Zhou had set up a poisonous plot to kill her based on some false speculations, so there was no need for her to show mercy. Whether the Zhou family could escape from this calamity depended on their luck.
Baili Qingcang's deep gaze swept across Madam Qin on the ground. The anger in his voice was so overwhelming that people could not breathe.
Shortly after Shen Ninghua left, the Crown Prince walked out from behind an artificial hill beside Ningkun Palace. Seeing Shen Ninghua's departing figure, he waved his hand and ordered the dark guard. "Keep a close watch on the Second Prince's Mansion and the Prefectural Princess Mansion these days. Nothing is allowed to happen between her and Baili Jinchuan. Otherwise…eradicate…"The Crown Prince's voice carried boundless coldness, but the dark guard seemed to be used to it. He replied calmly, "Yes, Master."After returning home, Shen Ninghua immediately called Hong Ling over, "Hong Ling, is there any news in the capital recently?""Miss, there is nothing special." Hong Ling shook her head.Shen Ninghua frowned. She always felt that the empress's attitude was a little strange, but she couldn't say exactly how. Three days later, a shocking piece of news came over."The Great Yue Kingdom will send an envoy to the capita
The eyes carried a clear smile, as if they were filled with spring flowers. The moment they met with Shen Ninghua's gaze, the brown pupils slightly shook, like the surface of a lake that had been wrinkled by the breeze, shining with the glistening light of waves.There were obviously quite a few people between them, but with a single glance, Shen Ninghua was sure that Bu Jinglan was looking at her. She turned her head and her delicate eyebrows took on a trace of coldness.Bu Jinglan's mother and Baili Jinze's mother were both of a low status, but their fates were completely different. Baili Jinze's mother died right after giving birth to him. Baili Jinze had no choice but to be brought up by other imperial concubines. Bu Jinglan's mother, however, was extremely clever. Not only did she succeed in protecting her child, she also managed to rise to the top by relying on this child. The Emperor of Great Yue even made an exception for her and personally let her,
Bu Jinglan was stunned. Obviously, he hadn't expected Shen Ninghua to refuse him so bluntly. An almost invisible light flashed in his eyes. "Your Highness, think carefully. I won't disturb you anymore." As he spoke, he stood up and left, without giving Shen Ninghua the chance to speak again.Shen Ninghua put down the teacup in her hand and gently stroked her wrist. Such a straightforward test. This Sixth Prince was indeed an interesting man.People gathered in the main hall and sometimes cheered for Baili Anning, who was performing Guzheng. Bu Jinglan chose a spot not far away and stood there with a smile on his face. Occasionally, he would show an appreciative expression.After a while, Baili Anning's performance came to an end, and the crowd immediately burst into cheers. For some unknown reason, the Ninth Princess Baili Anqing staggered. She lost her balance and almost fell to the ground.Bu Jinglan hurriedly stepped forward and
Baili Jinchuan almost couldn't control the anger in his chest. "Men and women should keep proper distances? Haha, you don't want me to touch you. Who do you want to touch you? Baili Jinze or Bu Jinglan?"Although Bu Jinglan did not say anything explicit in the palace today, everyone could tell that he was very interested in Shen Ninghua. If he asked to marry Shen Ninghua, His Majesty would most likely agree for the sake of the friendship between the two kingdoms. What should happen then?Shen Ninghua frowned tightly. She didn't conceal her disgust, and her face was cold like ice. "Have you come to my mansion to make a scene? Do you want me to call the Governor of Capital Guards to watch and see how far you can go?"As soon as he finished his words, Baili Jinchuan regretted it. Because of his contribution to disaster relief in Jiangnan, he was conferred the title of Prefectural Prince. The people loved and supported him, and he could be said to
Shen Ninghua looked at Chu Junyi seriously. Her gaze was very extremely careful, as if she wanted to figure out the real character of the person in front of her.Chu Junyi's heart throbbed, and he could hear a clear thumping sound of his heart. Sweat unconsciously oozed from his palms, creating a wave of ice-cold and sticky feel.The two of them remained silent for a moment, but Shen Ninghua was the first to move her gaze away and said calmly. "Since that's the case, I will take more care with this banquet. You should also take care."Chu Junyi's heart suddenly relaxed. But he did not feel as relaxed as he had imagined. Instead, he felt as if his heart was completely empty and boundless.To be honest, if Shen Ninghua had pursued the question regarding his identity, he didn't know how to answer. He didn't want to deceive her, but it wasn't the time to confess yet. However, now that she didn't ask anything, he felt even more lost in
Xiao Huanxi looked at Shen Ninghua and the hatred in her eyes gradually grew stronger. What was so good about this person? Why did Brother Junyi like her so much? Not only did he want to protect her all the time, he was also constantly practicing drawing her portrait in the study. The full scroll of manuscripts made her so jealous that she wished to destroy Shen Ninghua on the spot!"Greetings, Prefectural Princess Zhaohua." Madam Song went forward to greet Shen Ninghua. Seeing that Xiao Huanxi didn't move, she hurriedly stretched out her hand and pulled her.Xiao Huanxi suddenly restored her senses and bit the tip of her tongue fiercely. She tried to use the pain to suppress the twisted hatred in her heart. "Greetings, Prefectural Princess Zhaohua.""No ceremonies, Madam Song and Miss Xiao."Xiao Huanxi stood up and looked at Yang Yingxue. She took a step forward and hugged her arm intimately. "This must be Miss Yang. I've heard o
Everyone immediately looked at Shen Ninghua.Yang Yingxue was Shen Ninghua's cousin. The object that her cousin gave her was poisonous and hurt the Eldest Young Lady of the Xiao family. No matter how they interpreted it, they felt a hint of conspiracy.Shen Ninghua's expression was calm, so calm that Yang Yingxue felt a burst of panic in her heart.Xiao Huanxi had invited her to see the birthday gift. The birthday gift was locked so well that the key couldn't open the box. Xiao Huanxi became anxious and took the hairpin to poke the keyhole. However, her hairpin was made of jade and was not suitable. Yang Yingxue pulled out her hairpin and gave it to her. Unexpectedly, the hairpin cut Xiao Huanxi's hand and made her faint.Yang Yingxue was completely panicked. Seeing Shen Ninghua coming over, she subconsciously turned to her for help.Xiao Jingran strode forward and carefully helped Xiao Huanxi up. "Please forgive me, d
Chu Junyi said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, the person who got my sister Xiao Huanxi poisoned is him."Shen Ninghua's eyes suddenly trembled, and endless ridicule was hidden beneath her trembling eyelashes. Her heart was filled with a wave of coldness that seemed to freeze her entire body. Chu Junyi was really going to clean up the mess for the Xiao family.Xiao Jingran was also stunned. A lad servant plotted against the Eldest Young Lady of the Xiao family?Baili Qingcang paused for a while and slowly said, "He is just a lad servant. Why did he plot against Miss Xiao?"Chu Junyi turned to the lad servant who was kneeling on the ground and said, "His Majesty is asking you. Now confess."The lad servant seemed to be frightened out of his wits. "Your Majesty, I didn't know that it was poison. I accidentally broke Miss's lock while helping her carry the birthday gift box. I was frightened and bought a new lock from out
Bu Yonghan looked up, without the slightest bit of pride of being a princess in her eyes, there was only the fear and hatred that haunted her.Shen Ninghua looked at her with a cool expression, "It really didn't occur to me that our meeting again would be like this."Bu Yonghan sneered, "Now that I've fallen into your hands, I'll do as I please if I want to kill you.""Is that so? Listen to your tone as if you are not afraid of death, but your eyes tell this palace that you are afraid.""Oh, I would be afraid of you?"Shen Ninghua lowered her eyes, a cold smile flashed in her eyes, "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you, after all, you're also Prince De's rightful consort, I'll have someone send you back, and Tai Consort Qi and Prince De will naturally settle you down properly."Thinking of the desperate scene of being locked inside the empty room before, Bu Yonghan's body shuddered violently, "I'm not going back, I'm not going back!""It'
The Daan Kingdom's army garrison was quiet, and Slaughter Shadow, wrapped in black clothing, felt his way toward the garrison's source of drinking water.This time, the place where the army of Daan Kingdom is stationed is not far away is a river, the whole army usually water, are taken from the river, the soldiers guarding the river patrol day and night to protect the river safety, for fear that someone in the water to do something.At this time, the soldiers guarding the river did not realize in the slightest that someone had already taken advantage of the night and the cover of the grass to touch the river. Because he was worried that killing these guards would arouse the suspicion of the Great An Kingdom, Tu Ying could only creep into the grass and quietly open the box he was holding in his arms.The jade bottle emitted an ethereal blue light, and a hint of relief flashed through Tu Ying's eyes that had always been devoid of fluctuations. As long as he helped th
How could Bu Linglong not expect that she would see Shen Ninghua again at this time. At this time, she was in a sorry state, bound by ropes around her wrists, weakly kneeling on the ground, her eyes gripped with blackness. Knowing that at this time, she was completely without any advantage or credentials, she still tried hard to open her eyes wide and looked at Shen Ninghua who was sitting above her.Shen Ninghua came to the border city with Baili Junyi only yesterday, after a night's rest, her spirit recovered, because of her relaxed mood, the whole person seemed to be carrying a soft light in general, sitting up beautifully as if she didn't look like a real person, "Princess Linglong, I didn't expect that we'd meet again in such a way."Bu Linglong tilted her head and looked at her with an arrogant face, "Empress Mother, I also didn't expect that you would follow the Emperor to the border city."Shen Ninghua smiled faintly, "Is the princess's body alright?"
This personal expedition of Baili Junyi drew extra attention from the people of the entire Da An Country. In the nearly one year since he ascended to the throne, the Great An Country had experienced a lot of turmoil, but in the end, it had all come through unscathed. Nowadays, the emperor emphasizes pragmatic subjects, strictly combats corruption and bribery, and the official atmosphere of the entire Da An country is exceptionally clear.When the officials are clean, the lives of the people underneath will naturally be better. They treated Baili Junyi as a bright ruler, and now, this bright ruler is going to go on a military expedition, and with the Empress in tow, which is really heartbreaking.Many of the people who originally had little feeling for the Great Yue Country began to loathe them, believing that if it wasn't for them messing with the border, the Emperor and Empress Dowager wouldn't have had to put themselves in harm's way.Just as they were discussing
Baili Jun Yi dynasty announced that the future no longer consorts, the only queen of the harem one person, although the officials on the spot have different thoughts, but after repeated thought, they all tacitly choose to shut up and do not say anything.The emperor and the empress is happy, they do the subjects, or not what hope. Otherwise, think of those who jumped before the great officials down, and go to great lengths to let the emperor will be held in the election, and then, the election is not over, their official position is not, after that, implicated in the Palace of the daughter, even if it is the show girl is not also gray back to the Palace of the?They also sort of saw that the Emperor had no intention of bringing new people into the harem from the beginning.Originally, those courtiers dared to openly call the Emperor's bluff by virtue of their influence in the court, but now they have all been driven out of the court, and their fate is pathetic. The
Prince Yi stared wide-eyed, his eyes flashing with full shock, “How could the Tu Su family be related to the Great Yue State?" These ambassadors of theirs were locked up in the post house and were extremely misinformed on weekdays, and to this day, they still hadn't figured out the reason for the Tu Su family's overnight defeat.Baili Jun Yi hooked the corner of his lips, the two countries are once again at war at the border, and these messengers are no longer necessary to maintain the surface peace, he is even more lazy and he circled:"This matter I ordered to seal the mouth, Prince Yi naturally not clear, well, there is no more other things, you will step Linglong lead back, go back after a good sharpening of temperament, the next time a similar thing happens, I will not look at the face of the Great Vietnam lightly forgiven."Icy cold words were heard in his ears, shocking Prince Yi couldn't help but tremble in his heart, "Your Majesty, this king has taught his
Bu Linglong swept a glance at Xiao Bao, only to feel that this child was just as annoying as her mother, this was just a small age, and she was this vicious.At this point, she had completely forgotten that the reason why she had received this beating was entirely of her own making, and, for someone of her age to be reckoning with a three year old, she didn't know who the truly vicious one really was!Shen Ninghua's five senses were extremely sharp, sensing Bu Linglong's hidden anger and hatred, a cold light flashed in the bottom of her eyes, originally she didn't want to be concerned, but now she wanted to make things clear, otherwise, wouldn't it be better to let Xiao Bao have to bear a bad name at a young age?"Princess Linglong, is what Luo Yao said true?"Bu Linglong hurriedly defended, "Empress Mother, how could I have such thoughts, the reason why I stayed in the palace in the first place was because you invited me, and later on, it was even more so be
Within the palace, the palace examination began. Many officials pondered to wait until the end of the palace examination, must be written to submit a good chapter to the emperor, so that the emperor will be released from the palace daughters.For such a long time, they also sort of see that the Emperor said that he was starting a draft, but he did not mean to leave anyone in the harem.Today, half of the showgirls have been sent out of the palace. Most of them were implicated because of the fall of the previous officials, and not many of them are still in the palace today, and, moreover, all of them are the kind of family mediocre, even if they are in the palace, there is no hope of being favored.Moreover, some days ago, the eldest prince turned three years old, the emperor appointed the university scholar to enlighten him, looking at this situation is from a young age is going to treat the eldest prince as the depositary training. The eldest prince Baili Yong Che
Shen Ninghua frowned slightly, also somewhat unable to find a clue, “The Tu Su family has existed for more than a hundred years, started in the former dynasty, and the words of the former dynasty ... does it mean that the Tu Su family had a relationship with the Great Yue State in the former dynasty? Even to the serious speculation, Tu Su family is the nail that the Great Yue State has planted on our side."Baili Junyi gazed in contemplation, "What you said is extremely possible, a family that has developed a bit too legendary, moreover, if the Tusu family has no other purpose, why would they be so eager to control the courtiers and make a name for themselves?"Shen Ninghua nodded, "If what we've guessed is true, then the mind of the Tu Su family is simply too terrifying."If not for Baili Junyi's deep affection for her, then the Tu Su family's plan to have Tu Su Qingli approach him could have succeeded. That kind of cold beauty of a woman, to him to give up their
