"Shangguan Chuque - you -" Blood stains immediately appeared at the corners of his mouth. The old emperor's eyes widened with hatred and his pupils gradually dilated.

"There is no father or son in an emperor's family." Shangguan Chuque reached out and brushed his eyes, turned around and left Fenglin Palace. The eunuchs cried and howled behind him at the same time: "——The emperor passed away——" He His eyes were filled with smiles.

*************************************************** ***************************************

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live—" the echo from the Golden Palace echoed through the sky.

Long Chang was also wearing a golden dragon robe and a crown on his head. His eyes were like daggers. He looked down at the ministers with a majestic air. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised: "All ministers are equal!"

"I would like to report to your Majesty that while the late Emperor was still here, the case of Pang Jian has not yet been decided. I would like to ask Your Majesty to investigate clearly and give justice to the brothers who died on the battlefield!" Shangguan Chuque took a step sideways and walked out of the queue.

"The evidence of Pang Jian's crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason is solid and well-founded. The Nine Tribes should have been punished. I remember that he had made a lot of contributions to the great Zhao Jiangshan, so I gave him death and all his family members were sent to the frontier fortress."

Pang Jian on the side was unusually calm and did not make any noise or fuss.

"The sixth prince Jingji and his mother's concubine Cao Guifei are suspected of interfering in the government affairs and shielding Pang Jian. Cao Guifei even killed the other concubines. Their methods are cruel and shameful. Please make your decision."

"Ms. Cao, do you know your guilt?" Long Changyi narrowed his eyes slightly.

"The guilty woman knows her crime, the guilty woman knows her crime. I hope the emperor will be merciful and spare the guilty woman." Your Highness's delicate woman looked frightened. She had long since lost her previous title of the most beautiful concubine.

"Now that you know your crime, how can I spare you?! It was you and other temptresses who deceived the government and allowed neighboring countries to take advantage of the imperial government. Take them out and kill them!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

"Mother, Empress, please forgive me, please forgive me. Brother, please have mercy." Jing Ji, who was kneeling beside him, kept kowtowing.

"Jing'er... I beg the Emperor to spare Jing'er. Jing'er is still young and he was not involved in everything. I beg the Emperor to spare Jing Ji!" At this point, Cao naturally understood what the anger in Long Changyi's eyes meant. That year She was fighting for favor in the harem, and intrigues were inevitable to protect her position. Her fault was that she forgot to eradicate the roots. At this time, the situation was changing, and he would not let her go. She only hoped that he would not involve her children because of this.

"Whether Jing Ji was involved or not is unsubstantiated, and further verification by the Ministry of Criminal Justice is needed."

"Your Majesty is wise -" Shangguan Chuque would jump out from time to time, and all the civil and military officials would also jump out.

"Pull it down!" Long Chang also closed his eyes slightly.

"Shangguan Chuque, you despicable villain! If you frame me falsely, you will destroy our country, traitor!" Pang Jian was escorted to Shangguan Chuque and glared at him fiercely.

"If you are honest, I will let you play with me for another year and a half. After all, being in court alone is too boring. But in order to get the colorful snow lotus, I can only end this game as soon as possible." Shangguan Chu Que Fu whispered in his ear.

"You... I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost -" His last tragic voice may only be saved on the execution ground.

"I'm waiting for you." His blue eyes are captivating.

Three days later, Shangguan Chuque went deep into the prison of the Ministry of Punishment and visited the sixth prince Jing Ji. The sixth prince Jing Ji knew that he had committed "serious sins and committed suicide out of fear of crime." He ended his splendid years at the age of eighteen with a foot of white silk.

All the rewards given to Concubine Cao were put into the national treasury, including countless gold, silver, jewels, silks and satins, but the only thing missing was the most precious treasure of the Zhao Kingdom - the colorful snow lotus. Everyone couldn't find it. Finally, with the emperor's pardon, she had to give up.

There seemed to be something vaguely pressing against her lips. Shixue tried hard to reject it, but something still slipped into her mouth - a sweet taste.

It didn't take long for my body to feel much better and the pain to be relieved a lot.

She slowly opened her eyes - the pink gauze curtain, the splendid patterns, the splendor that can only be found in the palace -

"Lian'er——" Long Chang also put down the spoon in his hand and half-hugged her into his arms: "You finally woke up."

"You - Prince -" She was hugged by him so hard that she could hardly breathe.

"Young lady, why are you still called Prince? Now it's time to change your name to Emperor!" Xiao Qinzi on the side corrected.

"Have mercy on the girl?" What's going on? After a good sleep, nothing seems to be right.

"Oh, no, no, I have to call you queen in two days." Xiao Qinzi smiled so hard that he could not close his mouth from ear to ear.

"I? Your Majesty, Crown Prince, Your Majesty, this——" Xi Xue pushed him away gently and looked at Long Changyi with a blank expression.

"Xixue accepts the order!" Long Changyi said with a smile on his face, took a step back and said seriously.

Xi Xue was startled for a moment, but still half-knelt on the ground, "Xixue accepted the order."

"The new emperor of Zhao Kingdom came to the throne. I appointed Shangguan Lianqing, the sister of Shangguan Chuque, the left prime minister of the dynasty, as my queen. They got married on the 23rd day of August. The whole world celebrates it! I give you this gift."

Why did she become Shangguan Chuque's sister again? Why did this happen? What happened? What he said to her during the coma was still in her ears. His deep affection and concentration made her blush when she thought about it.

"Why, are you so happy that you're stupid?" Long Chang also gently put his hands on his weak shoulders. "Are you satisfied with the identity of Shangguan's sister? In order to fill Baiguan's mouth, I can only wrong you!"

"Your Majesty, please take back your order!" She immediately knelt down.

"Why, you don't want to?" Long Changyi didn't understand her heart.

"Your Majesty, Xi Xue doesn't want to stay in the palace."

"You are now Lianqing, the lady of Shangguan Mansion!" he corrected.

"Neither Xixue nor Lianqing wants to stay in the palace."

"Why?"

"As soon as you enter the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea." She sighed sadly.

"Then can you bear to let me stay alone in the palace?" Long Changyi's voice suddenly became a little sad.

"The Emperor is not alone. He has seventy-two concubines in three palaces and six courtyards, and three thousand beauties to accompany him."

"As an emperor, I can't change anything, but I am Long Changyi, and all I want is you!" Long Changyi suddenly held her slender hand.

"Your Majesty, I am not, I..."

"Stay with me, okay? Don't let me face this ever-changing dynasty alone." Long Changyi suddenly hugged her tightly, fearing that everything in front of him was an illusion. In the past few days, he had been missing every day. He stayed by her side all night, fearing that something important would disappear from his life again, just like the death of his mother. He was really scared.

"Your Majesty—" Lian Qing hesitated, closed her eyes, and a pair of soft tears climbed up his back.

The room for two people was so quiet that you could hear the echo of a pin dropping.

"Don't say anything. You should have a good rest first. I'll come see you another day." Long Changyi's back disappeared from sight, and a person walked in happily at the door - it was Xi'er.

"Xi'er——" She had mixed feelings. Seeing this girl again felt like she had returned to her previous life.

"Miss, you scared Xi'er to death. How could you be so seriously injured? Are you still hurting now?" The girl had tears streaming down her face before she could even say a few words.

She shook her head slightly.

"Fortunately, the emperor brought colorful snow lotus, otherwise, Xi'er might never see the young lady again."

"Colorful snow lotus - he gave me colorful snow lotus -" Xi Xue's heart was startled.

"This colorful snow lotus is very precious. I heard that the emperor got it after he killed his adulterous concubine." Xi'er said softly.

Shixue shook her head helplessly. How could she not know the preciousness of this colorful snow lotus? "Long Chang, Ah Long Chang, you are such a great gift, how can I repay it?"

"Another infatuated lover. Didn't Mr. Mu also have a deep love for the young lady before?"

"Brother Mu—Xi'er, where is Brother Mu?" Xi'er grabbed Xi'er's sleeve.

"Mr. Mu left not long after the lady left. He said he couldn't let anything happen to the lady, but he hasn't come back yet." Xi'er pressed the quilt tightly for her with one hand.

"I don't need anyone to protect me." Xixue chuckled, and a familiar voice suddenly appeared in his mind - "Qinggong is good, keep going."

Is that idiot Xuanyuan Xuanyu still pestering people with strong martial arts skills?

Queen? Shangguan Chuque's sister? Why did she have so many troubles as soon as she woke up? If she had known, she might have been in a coma.

************************************************************************ ＊＊＊＊＊

"Your Majesty, there is a message from the north."

"Send it up."

"Oh - Jie State wants to send envoys to congratulate our country on repelling Xiang State and entering into a friendly peace treaty." Long Chang also closed the letter with satisfaction and turned to look at Shangguan Chuque. "What do you think of this matter?"

"Okay." Shangguan Chuque said without looking at him, minding his own business.

"good?"

"The first is to see the current situation in our Kingdom of Zhao, and the second is to explore the strength of our dynasty. Then don't be stingy and show it to them."

Shangguan Chuque played with the jade flute in his hand.

"Do you really think so?" Long Chang also looked at him suspiciously.

"Otherwise?" Shangguan Chuque asked lazily.

"There really is no better reason."

"Otherwise, do you think he will marry the princess to marry you and build friendship between the two countries?" Shangguan Chuque said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll take it as soon as he gives it to me." Long Chang also said with a smile.

"What about my poor - 'sister'? I haven't officially married yet, but I already have many beautiful sisters." Shangguan Chuque deliberately dragged out the word "sister" for a long time.

"Then I'd better give you those charming princesses. Don't you have a sweetheart yet? Just think of it as sharing the emperor's worries."

"Only villains and women are difficult to raise. Hahahaha." It was rare to see Shangguan Chuque laughing so heartily. Long Chang was really curious about what kind of woman could make him surrender at his feet.

There was a hint of sweetness in Shangguan Chuque's smile. Could it really be because of her - that innocent smile? This little girl is really troublesome. As long as she is alone, he will be too busy. He will play and dance for a while.

Hu committed suicide and ran away from home after a while. He also asked him to go to the cold-faced Yama in person to ask the person he wanted and when she would be able to calm down.

The fragrance of peonies is refreshing, like snow, your toes tap lightly on the water where the petals are attached, and a cloud of mist fills the room. She gently unbuttons her coat, takes off her white gauze skirt, and her embroidered inner clothes slowly fall off, and she fumbles with the jade brocade with her slender hands.

The hairpin is a perfect arc, and the long black satin-like hair pours down like a waterfall, adding a bit of charm to the purity.

She gently scooped up a small amount of water, and the water droplets kissed her white and smooth jade arms, and flowed down to her seductive collarbones. Under her closed eyes, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and were lively and active.
