The queen lowered her head, covering her crying face, and carefully returned to her bedroom. Along the way, she was thinking: What happened to her just now?
But the memory of that period is blank, I can’t remember it no matter how much I think about it!
"Empress!" Xiao Guizi hurried out and called her suddenly, which made the queen tremble with fright.
"What are you doing in such a hurry?" The queen glanced at him, scolded him, and ordered arrogantly, "Go get me a basin of water, I want to wash my face!"
After saying that, he passed Xiao Guizi and walked inside.
"Empress!" Xiao Guizi followed up anxiously and blocked her way. Before she could get angry, she lowered her voice and announced, "The Lord is here."
"What?" The queen's face turned pale, and the anger that had just been brewing instantly froze on her face.
The Lord has never been to the palace before! Why suddenly...
Moreover, this palace was heavily guarded, but the Lord could "come" so easily? The Lord's strength once again made her panic!
She quickly straightened her clothes, not daring to neglect at all, and ordered to Xiao Guizi: "Go and guard outside, don't allow anyone to come in! If the emperor comes, find a way to drag him away!"
"Yes." Xiao Guizi nodded, with a serious look on his face, and quickly followed the instructions.
The queen wiped two handfuls of it on her face randomly, straightened out her embarrassed face, then took a deep breath and walked into the house...
In the bedroom.
A tall figure stood with his hands behind his back, standing quietly with his back to her. He was covered with a pure white cloak, like snow in winter, adding a bit of chill to people.
Yan Luo's two close subordinates were standing on the side, one dressed in black and one in white, and they also gave off a cold aura.
"Your Majesty, she is back." Seeing the Queen coming in, a subordinate next to him reported respectfully.
"Yes." Nodding, Yan Luo raised his hand gently and gestured to the two people around him, "You guys step aside first, and while you have a cup of tea, bring over what I want."
"Yes." The two of them said in unison, flew out, and disappeared immediately.
The queen lowered her head and did not dare to speak, but when she heard Yan Luo say, "Bring me what I want," she couldn't help but wince - what did the lord come to the palace to get?
Although she was curious, she still had the sense not to ask.
"Your movements are quite fast. You almost killed the emperor after not seeing him for a day." Yan Luo said calmly, without any emotion in his voice, as if he was stating a simple fact.
The queen couldn't help but feel uneasy.
Her eyes were wandering around, wanting to observe Yan Luo's expression, but she didn't dare to meet his legendary pair of deadly purple eyes, so she could only stammer in reply: "I...I still failed.
He...is not dead."
"He's not exhausted yet, so how can you kill him with a hasty plan?" The fingertips in Yan Luo's sleeves moved slightly, he thought about it for a moment, and then spoke calmly.
"What the Lord said is true!" The Queen responded quickly, feeling anxious, and immediately knelt down towards him, "Please give me some advice, Your Lord."
"I am not a scheming person..." With a low sigh, Yan Luo threw something in front of her, "It is better to rely on strength than to rely on strategy."
The queen was stunned, and the next second she quickly picked up the thing wrapped in brocade cloth and opened it - a small stone with a strange shape appeared in front of her eyes instantly, and it was glowing with a faint green light.
This is... a spiritual stone?!
"Lord?" The Queen said in surprise, almost crying with joy. She held the spirit stone tightly in her hand like a treasure, and kowtowed to Yan Luo, "Thank you, Lord! Thank you, Lord!"
The spiritual stone is her greatest hope!
Only spirit stones can easily open the imperial mausoleum. Otherwise, she can only think of ways to make the people who can be buried in the imperial mausoleum die, and that method will definitely make her suffer from the condemnation of her conscience for the rest of her life...
"There's no need to thank you too much." Yan Luo said indifferently, showing no emotion at all to the queen's kowtow. "If it was just to send a spiritual stone, I wouldn't come to the palace in person."
"What does the Lord mean?" The Queen was startled, her scalp tingling for fear that the Lord was trying to thwart her revenge plan.
"Just open the imperial mausoleum with peace of mind and take out what you want to avenge you." Yan Luo chuckled and slowly walked out step by step. The white figure walked into the night, leaving only a faint sentence,
"I just suddenly discovered that there is something I need in the imperial mausoleum..."
He gave the spirit stone to the queen and asked her to open the imperial mausoleum according to her identity and get what she needed.
A move that completely benefited him.
The queen froze on the spot, feeling Yan Luo walking out, so she dared to look at his back secretly. Seeing his cold figure disappear into the night, the queen's hand holding the spirit stone began to tremble - she couldn't help it.
No revenge! But what is the Lord... going to do?
She couldn't help but pray: I hope the Lord will not cause a killing. In that case, even if her revenge is avenged, her heart will be tortured and she will regret it for the rest of her life.
Yan Luo walked out of Fengyi Palace and did not leave the palace immediately. Instead, he wandered around the palace as if no one else was around. With his strength, the guards here did not need to be taken seriously at all.
He sat down at the stone table in the imperial garden and waited for something quietly until two figures, one black and one white, landed next to him——
"You guys are half a cup of tea late." He gently stroked his sleeves and spoke calmly.
"Your Majesty, forgive me!" The woman in white knelt down and spoke in a low voice, and at the same time presented the thing in her hand, "Your Majesty, I got it!"
