Chapter 1158: Imperial City Crisis, Lin Family's Conspiracy (Part 2)
"I can't blame you for this..."
He also looked solemn.
Xia Lengling frowned and sighed softly: "No one expected that Xue Yun would die overseas..."
Hear the words.
Everyone sighed, and the sad atmosphere instantly spread to every corner of the hall.
There is no longer a roadblock like Xue Yun.
The people of the Lin family in Hudu once again took out their previous engagement and started making a fuss about it.
He even directly requested a decree from Emperor Yong'an, asking the Longdu An family to fulfill their previous agreement and marry the Lin family as soon as possible.
But this time.
The groom is no longer the uneducated Lin Aoran, but Lin Chen, who has become the designated heir of the Lin family!
As we all know.
People from the An family have always held the power of the Longdu War Preparedness Department.
The reason why the other party brings up old things again is that his goal is very clear——
It is precisely because they want to slowly penetrate into the power structure of Longdu through marriage, and then take advantage of the weakness of Longdu's overall strength to gradually erode Anjia's power.
Thus, the ultimate goal of seizing control of the Longdu War Readiness Department was achieved!
"It's too much to bully others..."
Zhao Lihua, who has joined the Longdu War Preparedness Department, has an angry expression on her face.
"If Beigong Mu and Xue Yun are still in Longdu, how dare these guys be so arrogant?!"
There is a lack of talent and there is a shortage of talent.
This is the current embarrassing situation in Longdu.
The original battle with the "Apostle of Judgment" consumed too much of Longdu's manpower and material resources.
In terms of material resources, strong administrative efficiency can also be used to make up for it quickly.
However, in terms of manpower, it was impossible to catch up to the level before the war in a short period of time.
The god of war has passed away, and power has changed.
A large number of effective combat forces were destroyed in one blow, and the remaining night watchmen in Longdu, apart from the still immature young people, were only elderly seniors like An Gufeng.
So much so.
Xue Yun's unexpected death finally became the straw that broke the camel's back.
There are no strong obstacles.
Yong'an Emperor Xuanyuan Longcheng had long been unscrupulous and finally began to extend his claws to the Longdu regime.
"Everyone, calm down..."
Close your eyes.
Hu Kui let out a long breath and pretended to be calm: "I am the city lord. When I come to the imperial city this time, I will definitely make the decision for Ruxuan. It is not that easy for the Lin family to get involved in the political power of Longdu."
As soon as these words came out.
Everyone then stopped talking, but they still felt a little worried in their hearts.
"Your Majesty has arrived~~"
A sharp sound suddenly sounded in the palace hall.
Everyone was slightly startled.
Everyone hurriedly knelt in the direction of the dragon chair in the hall to worship. Even Hu Kui, who was the city lord, did not dare to make any mistakes and bowed obediently.
Accompanied by the appearance of many maids and guards.
Yong'an Emperor Xuanyuan Longcheng, wearing a dragon robe, finally slowly walked into the hall from the side hall.
Behind His Majesty the Emperor.
Li Kuixing, dressed in brocade clothes, was following behind him respectfully with his body slightly bowed.
After seeing this internal manager who had a long-standing grudge against Longdu.
Everyone's hearts suddenly froze, and they all felt a chill.
Raise your hand and shake off the hem of your clothes.
Xuanyuan Longcheng sat on the dragon chair in front of him with a serious expression and dignity.
As for Li Kuixing, he stood quietly on one side, looking at everyone with gloomy eyes.
Looking down at the people in the hall, the aloof Emperor Yong'an asked in a deep voice.
"Which one is the daughter of the Longdu An family?"
In an instant——
The entire hall suddenly fell silent, everyone was as silent as a cicada, not daring to make the slightest sound.
Let’s get straight to the topic.
Xuanyuan Longcheng's actions instantly made everyone feel unexpected.
"An Ruxuan, please see Your Majesty..."
Secretly gritting his teeth.
In desperation, An Ruxuan could only kowtow silently and responded: "Long live His Majesty the Emperor, Long live the Emperor!"
The imperial power of Daxia is irreversible.
Even the princes who valued the city as a fortress had to put down their arrogance in front of the Emperor of Great Xia and could only choose to surrender unconditionally.
The girl stared down at the palace with a serious expression.
Xuanyuan Longcheng raised his hand to support his chin, and ordered in a deep voice with cold eyes: "Raise your head."
Don't dare to be negligent in the slightest.
An Ruxuan bit her lip lightly and had no choice but to raise her head. Although her eyes were wandering, she still did not dare to look directly into the eyes of the man on the dragon throne on the high platform.
"good."
A deep smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Xuanyuan Longcheng nodded silently and said: "Sure enough, she is naturally beautiful. If she and Lin Chen become a couple, they can be regarded as a pair of beauties made in heaven."
"Your Majesty is wise." Li Kuixing on the side quickly agreed.
In an instant——
The words of praise were like a biting cold wind, chilling the hearts of everyone in the hall on the spot.
An understatement tied An Ruxuan and Lin Chen together.
Everyone followed An Ruxuan and traveled thousands of miles to the imperial city of Hudu.
Its purpose was precisely to persuade Emperor Yong'an to take back his life.
But it was just a face-to-face meeting.
Xuanyuan Long, who was sitting on the dragon throne, took the initiative and expressed his attitude subtly, shocking everyone on the spot to the point where they did not dare to object easily.
Compared to Machiavellian tactics.
The combined total of all the people present was not as powerful as Xuanyuan Longcheng.
"His Majesty!"
Have courage.
Hu Kui suddenly raised his head and said in a deep voice: "Weak minister Hu Kui, I have something important to report!"
He raised his eyebrows.
Lift your chin proudly.
Xuanyuan Longcheng narrowed his eyes and looked coldly at the aggressive Hu Kui below, and also chose silence.
Inside the main hall, there was silence.
Everyone was waiting for His Majesty the Emperor's response. During this period, no one dared to make even the slightest noise and could only wait in place.
"Hu Kui?"
So he looked thoughtful.
Xuanyuan Longcheng, who was sitting on the dragon throne, frowned and asked with slight surprise: "When did I have such a number one person among my ministers?"
As the saying goes, murder kills the heart.
Emperor Yong'an was obviously trying to pretend to be confused and used this method to humiliate Hu Kui.
in other words.
This is also a warning to everyone in Longdu that they are nothing at all in the eyes of the imperial power.
"Your Majesty..."
Step forward silently.
Li Kuixing bent down and said respectfully: "This Hu Kui is the son of Hu Haiquan, the former lord of Longdu City. He is currently the lord of the fortress city of Longdu City and commands a territory."
"I see."
Put on a look of realization.
Xuanyuan Longcheng and Li Kuixing show off each other's acting skills, and the coordination between the two is perfect.
"Good guy..."
Prone on the ground.
Zhuge Gang lowered his head and complained in a low voice: "These two guys are asking questions here knowingly, wouldn't they feel a little embarrassed?"
"You don't understand this."
Also crawling on the ground.
Zhao Lihua quietly raised her head, looked at the two people on the high platform with unkind eyes, and couldn't help but whispered: "Since it is an acting, as long as they are not embarrassed, we will be the ones embarrassed..."
