Adore Trick of Beauty

Chapter 453 Return to the Palace

"My subordinate arrived late to save you, Your Majesty, please forgive me!"

The Xiaoqiying soldiers below knelt down and said. The uniform shouts of harmony made Mr. Lin, who was standing beside him in shock, stagger and fall to the ground.

Xiao Fengqing looked at the dozens of seriously injured thugs strewn about on the ground, and roughly guessed the general idea, and sneered: "Here come the crazy gangsters who don't know whether to live or die! Take them to the prison in the middle of the capital and wait for disposal!"

"Yes!" A guard came forward and tied them up one by one. When Master Lin's son, Mr. Lin, saw this posture, he was frightened out of his wits. He pointed at Nie Wushuang and stammered, "You, you... he... he is the emperor?"

Nie Minghu had long disliked him, and glared: "Asshole! The Emperor and Queen are here, and you are still so rude!"

"Emperor? Queen?" Upon hearing this, Mr. Lin's eyes widened and he fainted.

Xiao Fengqing stepped forward, kicked him, and said coldly: "Tie this one up too!"

After he finished speaking, he looked at Nie Wushuang: "The Queen is also frightened."

Nie Wushuang looked into his amber eyes and said calmly: "Thank you for your concern, His Highness Prince Rui. His Highness Prince Rui arrived in time."

A trace of complexity flashed across Xiao Fengqing's eyes, but soon the look in his eyes disappeared and he smiled lazily: "Of course I am worried that the Emperor and the Queen have not returned from their trip."

After saying that, he turned to Xiao Fengming with a solemn expression: "Your Majesty, please return to the palace quickly. Before the rumors spread."

Xiao Fengming nodded, turned over and rode on the sweaty horse, hugged Nie Wushuang and said to Zhang Orion beside him: "Brother Zhang, let's go back to Beijing together. I want to thank you very much!"

Zhang Orion was stunned for a long time and could not recover for a long time. Xiao Fengming smiled gently at him, stopped talking, and said in a deep voice: "Go back to the palace!"

The horse's hooves hit, and the wind and sand filled the sky. The man was like a dragon, and the horse was like a dragon, rushing towards Yingjing quickly.

Nie Wushuang returned to "Chenghua Palace". Yang Zhi hurriedly came forward to greet her. Seeing that she was safe and sound, he knelt down and said, "The Queen is finally back."

Nie Wushuang was helped by the palace maid to change and wash herself. After taking a short rest, she asked, "Is there anything unusual in the palace?"

Yang Zhi's heart trembled, he waved away the maids who were waiting on the side, and said in a low voice: "Nothing happened. None of the ladies in the palace knew that the emperor and the queen had not returned."

Nie Wushuang frowned and asked, "What about the morning court today? How should I tell the officials?"

Yang Zhi was slightly surprised. Nie Wushuang rarely interfered with government affairs, but she had already asked. He could only answer: "His Royal Highness Prince Rui made the decision and asked Eunuch Lin to tell the officials that the emperor will not attend court early today."

Hearing this, Nie Wushuang looked at Yang Zhi coldly with her beautiful eyes, and her voice was cold and low: "Did you tell His Highness Prince Rui the news last night?"

Yang Zhi was startled by the cold look in her beautiful eyes and was covered in cold sweat. Not knowing what she was thinking, he quickly knelt down and said, "I am also worried about the Queen. Yesterday, the Emperor and the Queen failed to return from riding in Shanglin Garden. Ouyang Ning, the commander of the Royal Forest Army, Not daring to delay, I quickly reported it to the commander of the Imperial Army, and then I went to find His Highness Prince Rui..."

Yesterday, when Yang Zhi saw that Nie Wushuang had not returned, he tried every possible means to find out from a guard in the Royal Forest Army that the emperor and empress were missing, and then he quickly informed Xiao Fengqing. Xiao Fengqing went to the palace overnight, but she was nowhere to be seen, and she informed Nie Minghu that night. Both the commander of the imperial army and the commander of the Royal Forest Army were loyal to the emperor. They knew that this matter was of great importance and someone needed to take charge of the overall situation. Xiao Fengqing happened to go to question him, so everyone obeyed his orders. Xiao Fengqing ordered two teams of people to follow Xiao Fengming's horse to search the place overnight.

There were intermittent traces of horseshoes, and finally a few feather arrows, a few weapons of unknown origin, and some blood stains were found on the cliff opposite. Seeing this situation, the commanders of the Royal Forest Army and the Forbidden Army secretly thought that it was not good, but thousands of people searched carefully but could not find the emperor and the empress, so they continued to search for a whole night with hope.

It wasn't until this morning in that small mountain village that people who looked similar to Xiao Fengming and Nie Wushuang were heading towards the capital, Feige sent a letter to inform Xiao Fengqing.

As soon as Xiao Fengqing heard the news, she immediately rushed out of the capital with Nie Minghu and Xiaoqiying, and then saw Xiao Fengming on the official road.

Naturally, Nie Wushuang didn't know about the twists and turns here, but when she saw the shadows under Xiao Fengqing's eyelids and the haggard look on her elder brother Nie Minghu's face, she knew that they must have had trouble sleeping last night. How can I feel at ease? Yesterday's assassination almost led to an earth-shaking disaster.

She thought about it and let out a long breath: "Don't let His Highness Prince Rui come forward easily in the future. If anyone knows that His Highness Prince Rui is exchanging information with the palace, you will not be able to escape death, and this palace will also be implicated!"

"Yes!" Yang Zhi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and bowed his head.

"Get up." Nie Wushuang softened his voice and stood up. It was already afternoon, and the maids had left after being served tea and meals.

Yang Zhi quickly helped her stand up. Nie Wushuang looked at the table full of dishes, but had no appetite at all. There was no warning about yesterday's assassination, and it also made people feel that there were many suspicious points. When she thought that the emperor's whereabouts were under the eyes of interested people, she couldn't sleep or eat well.

Seeing that she was upset, Yang Zhi helped her walk slowly along the corridor, her long skirt embroidered with phoenix patterns trailing behind her, and the "Chenghua Palace" was quiet and peaceful. Nie Wushuang looked at the flowers blooming in front of him, full of vitality, and felt that the world was like a dream. One moment he was running away, but the next moment he was sitting in the Phoenix Palace, safe and wealthy.

Sigh... She sighed lightly, turned around and asked, "Do you know Mr. Lin, the Minister of War?"

Yang Zhi was startled. Nie Wushuang was not just asking this simple question.

He thought for a while, lowered his head and said: "I know, Lin

Your Excellency was personally promoted by Lord Wang, Minister of War, and is a close confidant. Why does the Queen ask this? "

Lord Wang? It turned out to be Shu Fei's father.

Nie Wushuang stretched out his hand and picked up a hydrangea pink flower that was so long that it stuck out of the corridor. He smiled coldly: "He is going to be in trouble. Not just him, but also the entire military department..."

When Xiao Fengming arrived at the "Chenghua Palace", he saw such a lively scene: Nie Wushuang, dressed in phoenix clothes, with a decent smile on his face, and Zhang Orion and Zhang Shen who were sitting aside and trembling. say.

Zhang Orion's son and daughter were eating snacks accompanied by palace maids.

Nie Wushuang raised his head and saw Xiao Fengming coming back. He stepped forward to welcome him and bowed down and said: "I respectfully welcome the emperor."

When Zhang Orion and his wife Zhang Shen saw the emperor approaching, they quickly knelt down and shouted three times, "Long live the emperor."

Just after Xiao Fengming was furious with Long Yan in the imperial study, when he saw the Zhangs and his wife, his expression suddenly softened.

He helped Zhang Gui up with his own hands and said with a smile: "Brother Zhang, no courtesy!"

When Zhang Orion saw him wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, he felt that he was in a dream. He knelt down again with a puff, and kowtowed repeatedly: "The grass people... The grass people don't know that Long Live has arrived, the grass people..."

Zhang Shen also knelt down and said that he would die.

Xiao Fengming helped him stand up, talked to the couple for a while, and asked about the soldiers and bandits. Seeing his pleasant appearance, Zhang Orion immediately spoke much more smoothly. He just said whatever Xiao Fengming asked without hiding anything. After chatting for half a cup of tea, Xiao Fengming ordered someone to take them down and settle down properly.

Nie Wushuang saw that his brows were still a bit heavy, so she shook his hand and said with a smile, "I have already rewarded the Zhang family. Is there anything else that worries the emperor?"

Xiao Fengming's eyebrows were full of anger: "Military disaster! I didn't expect that in the peaceful and prosperous times, such a thing would happen under my nose!"

Nie Wushuang said softly: "Your Majesty, please calm down."

Xiao Fengming suppressed the anger in his heart, ordered the palace servants to present the royal meal, and did not mention it again.

The next day, Nie Wushuang knew the result of Xiao Fengming's treatment yesterday. Xiao Fengming and Long Yan were furious and issued an imperial edict to remove Lord Lin from his position as Minister of War and move three thousand miles away. Lin Jing, the son of Mr. Lin, was accused of gathering a crowd to cause trouble and offending Tian Yan. After autumn, he was asked to be executed. The thugs and evil servants gathered in the mansion were all taken to the prison to be executed on a certain day.

He was dismissed from the post of Minister of the Ministry of War, King Wang, for the crime of lax governance, and ordered to think about his mistakes at home.

In the "Chenghua Palace", Nie Wushuang sat on the phoenix throne, watching the concubines below whispering to each other, saying that she was ill and not coming to ask her regards. The concubines' discussions were even more unscrupulous.

Someone said: "This time I heard that the emperor Long Yan was so angry that the father and brother of Jingui concubine were called to the imperial study and scolded by the emperor!"

"Yes, yes. These dandy boys in Beijing have nothing to learn from, but they just want to imitate those soldiers, gangsters and refugees to fight against the 'Autumn Wind'..."

"..."

Nie Wushuang listened to their chatter, and there was no trace of impatience on his face. When a palace concubine saw that she did not rebuke her, she became more and more bold and stepped forward and asked: "Queen, my dear concubine, why didn't you come? Is there something in your heart that prevents you from coming?"

Nie Wushuang glanced at her lightly: "She sent someone to say hello and said she was sick."

The concubines below heard this and looked at each other, all snickering.

Nie Wushuang looked at their gloating expressions and sneered in his heart. They were all a group of incompetent people. No wonder Xiao Fengming no longer visited other palaces. Thinking about it, she excused herself and drove away the concubines.

At this moment, Xia Lan stepped forward and whispered: "Queen, your concubine is requesting to see your concubine in the side hall."

Nie Wushuang raised her eyebrows slightly: "Oh? She is here."
