"Alright, stop arguing." Baili Qingcang frowned and shouted coldly. He frowned and looked at Lin Yue and Zhao Kun, who knelt on the ground with awkward expressions. His tone was extremely dissatisfied. "You just said that there was a huge amount of silver in Chu Junyi and Shen Ninghua's mansions. Now do you know where it came from?"
Lin Yue and Zhao Kun's expressions became even more awkward. Not only did they fail to cause any harm to Chu Junyi and Shen Ninghua this time, they even made His Majesty have more sympathy and trust for them. Well, what they did was a perfect example of going for wool and coming home shorn.
"Your Majesty, I am guilty."
"Humph, you entered the imperial palace aggressively. Do you think you can quit just by admitting your mistakes? If Princess Zhaohua and Chu Junyi were not able to defend themselves in time, wouldn't I be deceived by all of you?"
"Your Majesty, calm down."
Shen Ninghua looked
The Imperial Guards incident seemed to be a reminder to the Emperor and all officials of the Da'an Dynasty: the authority of the Emperor could never be challenged. Even though he was old and weak, he still controlled the lives of millions of people. Even if the Emperor's sons, who were second only to the Emperor, had to bow down before him when he was in wrath.The Crown Prince and several other princes restrained their actions and did not dare to recklessly provoke Baili Qingcang anymore. Many officials who had already picked a side also began to take a firm stance and support Baili Qingcang's policy.For a moment, the political atmosphere in the entire Imperial Court improved a lot and Baili Qingcang did not treat his son too harshly. After punishing the Crown Prince, he ordered people to secretly sweep up other princes' forces that were hidden in the Imperial Court. As the princes prostrated with fear, he did not investigate them any further.
In the restaurant beside the road that Princess Zhaohua's bridal procession had to pass through, there was a slender young man sitting by the window. He was holding a wine cup in his hand and his figure was as tall and straight as a pine tree. Young women would flush after seeing his handsome appearance. It was said that he was Baili Jinchuan who had recovered from his injuries.Baili Jinchuan's face was still a little pale. He raised his head and drank all the wine in the wine cup. The pain on his forehead caused the look in his eyes to sink. He couldn't help but raise his hand to caress his forehead. There was a scar on it. The wound was so deep that it was impossible not to have a scar. When he heard this news, the pain in his heart was almost unbearable.What made it even more difficult for him to believe was that most of the anger and heartache that was almost unbearable to him didn't arise from the fact that he would no longer be qualified for the thr
"Ninghua, it's my fortune to have you as my wife."The gentle voice was low and deep, but it gave her a lingering sense that caused her heart to soften. Under the red veil, Shen Ninghua blinked and smiled. She didn't respond. Instead, she followed the guide of the nurse before her and stepped out of the bridal sedan.The music became even more joyous and louder. Chu Junyi held onto the silk tied with red flowers. He felt that all the noises around had disappeared. Only the red silk in his hand and the person at the other end of it were real.The officials and their wives who attended the wedding had already been waiting in the main hall. When they saw the new couple arriving, they all stood up to welcome them.Shen Ninghua was a princess. Although she was not the Emperor's biological daughter, as long as Baili Qingcang admitted her, she would be no different from his biological daughters. Empress Zhao Huiying sat upright at the sea
"Amitabha!"A melodious Buddhist chant came from the gate. The voice was calm and mellow, and it brought people back to the peaceful Buddhist world all of a sudden, causing their minds to become sober and calm.Shen Ninghua, however, was not affected at all. She raised her head to look at the entrance of the hall. Snow was flying in the sky. A monk dressed in Buddhist attire slowly stepped into the main hall step by step from the entrance.Only when he reached the door did Empress Zhao Huiying regain her senses and stand up. "Master Liaochen."Liaochen put his palms together, and the Buddhist beads in his hand glowed warmly. "Greetings, Your Majesty.""Master, please dispense with formalities."Liaochen bowed to greet the people aside. Everyone nodded and greeted back. Finally, his gaze fell on Shen Ninghua.When she looked at his eyes, Shen Ninghua's gaze couldn't help but shake. There was cl
Liaochen raised his eyes that had not flickered much since he came. There was finally a trace of stir in them. "Princess Zhaohua is really eloquent."Shen Ninghua slightly moved the corner of her lips. "A lot of people said that to me." Unfortunately, those people had already been dead.She remembered that in her previous life, after Baili Jinze ascended to the throne, Liaochen was conferred the title Teacher of State. This highly respected and knowledgeable senior monk in the eyes of people used all possible means to accumulate wealth after taking power. In order to expand his power, he even framed important officials in the imperial court. At that time, she advised Baili Jinze several times to kill this monk, but unfortunately, Baili Jinze had never listened to her.Seeing his hypocritically virtuous manner now, she felt nothing but disgust for him.Chu Junyi stood beside Shen Ninghua, and he looked coldly at Liaochen. "Master Li
Shen Ninghua raised her eyes that curved as beautiful as a bright moon. Chu Junyi's shadow was reflected in the clear eyes, which were bright, resplendent, and majestic.Chu Junyi raised his hand and stroked her eyes. He felt itchy in his palms as he touched her slender eyelashes. He felt as if there was a feather in his heart, which was soft and warm. He leaned forward and hugged Shen Ninghua in his arms. "Ninghua, don't worry, I will definitely give you another wedding and let everyone in the country offer their blessings to us!"Shen Ninghua smiled gently. "Chu Junyi, I don't care if people give their blessings at our wedding. I'm destined to have no blessings. What I care about is your heart."I would only give you one chance, Chu Junyi. I didn't want to make the same mistake again. I didn't look forward to any true love and lifelong companion. I only believed in all the things I had at present. I hoped you wouldn't let me down…
Shen Ninghua followed Fangxue into Ningkun Palace. A faint fragrance came from inside, which was very refreshing."Greetings, Your Majesty.""As you were. Fangxue, give her a seat.""Thank you, Your Majesty."When Shen Ninghua sat down, Zhao Huiying slowly said, "Ninghua, I left too early yesterday. Fortunately, those officials were sensible. Otherwise, I would feel very guilty."Shen Ninghua smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you worry too much. It's not a big deal."Zhao Huiying smiled faintly. Looking at the smoke rising from the incense burner, she said, "Ninghua, I heard that you are proficient in medicine and are also good at incense making. I have been feeling out of spirits these days. I feel that I cannot concentrate my mind when dealing with the palace matters during the day, and it is always difficult to fall asleep at night. I heard that you have concocted some incense that is good for sleep. Plea
Shen Ninghua was going to hold a plum banquet at the princess' mansion. She invited madams and young ladies from various aristocratic families to attend the banquet. It was said that she would teach everyone to make Ice Soul Incense.When this news spread out, the number of people who came to ask for incense immediately decreased. Many people were carefully preparing, waiting for the plum banquet to come and see just how miraculous the incense praised by the empress was."Miss, everything has been done according to your instructions. All the invitation cards have also been sent out."Shen Ninghua nodded and put aside the chess manual in her hand. Listening to the wind outside the window, she frowned slightly. "The weather these days is not good.""Yes, the weather is very cold these two days. It looks like it will snow in a few days. I wonder if those plum blossoms will continue to bloom after the snow."Shen Ninghua p
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
