Chapter 143 The Storm Is Coming(1/2)
At night, there was no breeze in the palace, and it seemed extremely hot.
Liu Xia was sitting in the imperial study room reviewing the memorials. The room was so quiet that one could even hear the sound of the ice cubes used to remove the summer heat melting.
Chen Mo stood behind Liu Xia as before, hunched over, head lowered, dozing off.
Summer has arrived before you know it, and the hot temperature makes people feel a little more irritable.
Liu Xia rubbed her temples, put the memorial to one side, and stretched.
Liu Xia has made rough calculations these days. As an emperor, he has to review about three thousand memorials every day.
Among them, memorials from ministers from all over the country accounted for 90%.
The content is also varied, including memorials, memorials, thanks and congratulations, etc.
These memorials took up most of Liu Xia's time.[
Chen Mo heard Liu Xia's voice and hurriedly opened his eyes. With a wave of his hand, the little eunuch on the side put the tea into Chen Mo's hand.
"Your Majesty, drink some tea to refresh yourself."
Chen Mo said with a smile.
"It's getting late today, you should go back and rest. Tomorrow is the big day for the funeral. Don't make any mistakes."
Liu Xia said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I understand. Then I will resign."
Having said this, Chen Mo bowed his head and walked towards the door.
Just as he walked to the door, he heard a young eunuch coming in a hurry and saying, "Your Majesty, Prince Hui has something important to report."
Liu Xia couldn't help but be stunned.
Because there is a mourning for the emperor, although the palace doors have been closed these days, there are still royal relatives in the palace.
However, at this time, it must be a big deal for Prince Hui to ask for an audience.
"Let him in."
Liu Xia said.
At this time, after some communication, Prince Hui entered the main hall.
When he saw Liu Xia, he hurriedly saluted.[
Prince Hui was less than forty years old. Speaking of which, he was of the same generation as Liu Xia. His father supported the emperor's accession to the throne many years ago, so the emperor did not make things difficult for people in their lineage.
Now Prince Hui successfully inherited the throne.
The emperor was quite kind to Prince Hui and his family. Liu Xia met this man twice and felt that he was fighting against the world but not annoying.
"Prince Hui, why don't you rest?"
Liu Xia walked over with a smile, helped Prince Hui up and asked.
"Your Majesty, the humble minister is guilty."
At this moment, Prince Hui was kneeling on the ground and did not dare to get up.
"Where does this come from?"
Liu Xia asked curiously.
"The sin of a humble minister deserves death."
Suddenly, Prince Hui burst into tears.
Liu Xia couldn't help but look at Chen Mo.
These royal relatives are all good actors, but at this moment, Prince Hui, with runny nose and tears, showed his true feelings.
"Whatever you say, I forgive you."
Liu Xia hesitated and said.
When Prince Hui heard this, he said with relief: "Your Majesty, this matter is a long story. Twenty-two years ago, Wei Chen fell in love with the daughter of a merchant in the eastern suburbs. The two fell in love for a long time, and they made a lifelong commitment.
I planned to inform His Majesty, but His Majesty granted me a marriage earlier. I was helpless, so I broke off the engagement with someone else. As a result, after Mei Niang heard about it, she threw herself into the lake and committed suicide.
My wedding was about to happen. After hearing the news, it was like a thunderbolt struck me. As for Mei Niang’s family, they started to make trouble after being grieved. I originally wanted to give them some money to solve the problem, but they refused to give up. When they were in a state of distress, Tuoba Lingyun
He came to me and told me that the royal family’s face was important and that he was willing to come forward to resolve the matter for me. I felt relieved and handed it over to him.”
Having said this, Prince Hui wiped his tears and said: "In the end, I didn't expect Tuoba Lingyun to kill them all. When Wei Chen found out, he was extremely angry. He went to Tuoba Lingyun to explain. Tuoba Lingyun told Wei Chen
, if the emperor knew about this matter, he and I would be involved. The ministers were afraid, so they hid the matter. But I never thought that from now on
After that, I boarded Tuoba Lingyun's pirate ship. Not only did I help him recruit troops and horses, but I also secretly conspired to rebel many times. I know that I have sinned deeply. Tomorrow, Tuoba Lingyun will take advantage of His Majesty's funeral to seize the Dragon City. No.
I beg your majesty to have mercy on me, and for the sake of my high-density affairs today, I beg your majesty to let my whole family go. I am willing to shoulder the responsibility of my sins."
When Liu Xia heard this, he dragged Prince Hui up hard and said with a smile: "If you know your mistakes, correct them. There is no greater good. At this time, you can step forward to save my Duan family, country, country, and the country. It shows that you can still be saved. Let's do this.
, I will give you one
This is an opportunity to fail. You tell me the details of tomorrow's rebellion. I will keep you alive. After tomorrow, you will write a memorial and let your son inherit the throne. Your life, follow me.
More important things."
When Prince Hui heard this, he immediately knelt down and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."
Later, Prince Hui told Liu Xia the details of the rebellion one by one.
After listening to this, Liu Xia pondered for a moment, and a sneer appeared on his lips.
I thought to myself: "Tuoba Lingyun, Tuoba Lingyun, tomorrow is the day you die!"
————————————————————————
The moonlight is like water, flowing thousands of miles.
Outside Longdu City, there was a dead silence.
In the darkness, a ray of purple light fell from the sky and fell into the Hidden Dragon Abyss.
When the purple flame slowly dissipated and merged into the darkness, Yao Wenxin's pretty figure was slowly revealed.
He stared at the reed swamps as far as the eye could see, and his thoughts seemed to go back to the scene when she followed Liu Xia to come here for the first time.
I just didn't expect that things in the world would change in the blink of an eye.
These days, she wandered around Longdu Continent, looking for memories of the past.
Although she is a heavenly demon and holds the demon king's treasure seal, she is the leader of the demon clan.
However, what she misses the most is not the time when she was all-powerful in the distant period, but the period after she met Liu Xia and lost her memory.
Two short years, to her, was just a blink of an eye.
But in the past two years, she had forgotten everything before and was worried every day. She just wanted to stay with Liu Xia for the rest of her life and be a peaceful little woman.
For the first time, I felt that life could be so beautiful and so simple.
However, at this moment, when all the past events came to mind, her heart was filled with mixed flavors and mixed feelings.
It turns out that loving someone is so beautiful.
She sat on the shore of the lake in despair, and put a pair of beautiful feet into the water. The calm lake surface suddenly caused ripples.
If she could do it again, she would not regret meeting Liu Xia.
To this day, he still remembers the scene when Liu Xia stood up for him regardless of everything.
She knew in her heart that Liu Xia loved her, but she was a demon and Liu Xia was the human emperor.
Yao Wenxin frowned involuntarily, a little annoyed, and stirred the calm lake water as if to vent his anger.
At this moment, Yao Wenxin suddenly waved his hand, and a purple light burst out.
"boom!'
There was a loud noise, and from behind the hill in the distance, a young man fell out in embarrassment.
After rolling to the ground, the young man hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "I'm here to see His Majesty the Demon King."
Yao Wenxin turned around and saw a very familiar face - Yao Yun.
"Is it you? You are following me secretly. What do you want to do?"
Yao Wenxin said angrily.
"Your Majesty, I'm just worried about your Majesty's safety."
"Really? You are thinking about the Demon King's Seal, right?"
Yao Wenxin smiled disdainfully.
"Your Majesty, there has long been no place for my demon clan in the Dragon Soul Continent. This time, I came to the Dragon Soul Continent to find the demon king seal of my clan. Since my demon clan evacuated from the Dragon Soul Continent,
I found another place to live at the far end of the world. However, my demon clan has been torn apart since then. There are powerful enemies looking around outside, and there is internal strife within the demon clan. The war continues, and the people live in dire straits. Still.
Please, Your Majesty, come back with me."
