Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Purpose of the Palace Feast

"Mom? Why are you here? Xue'er rubbed her eyes, just now she seemed to smell the smell of her master in a daze, but when she opened her eyes, only her mother looked at herself worriedly, and Ling Zhi, that guy, actually looked at herself with a strange expression, well, how to say, there was distress? When will this guy feel sorry for himself? Xue'er thought she was dazzled, but when she looked closely, she looked cool again.

"Xue'er, it's a big night, why did you come here by yourself, the night breeze is cold, go back with your mother so that the queen mother is unhappy" Nalan Xinyue looked at the darkness around her, only to feel a chill coming, and took Xue'er's hand and left.

Yixing Yan Shan held Nalan Xinyue's hand, Xue'er raised her head, "Mom, isn't the banquet over yet?" Cher wanted to go back. ”

Looking at her daughter pulling her sleeve, Nalan Xinyue's heart hurt fiercely for some reason, and even Ling Zhi looked at Xue'er who was so listless, and his eyes showed doubts.

has always been full of vitality, and in front of herself, she is also a very coquettish daughter who even lies and is naughty and naughty in order to achieve her goal, and suddenly begged herself so aggrievedly, let Nalan Xinyue squat down, looked at Xue'er with a tired face, reached out and touched Xue'er's face, and said with a smile: "Okay, wait for a while, wait for my mother to take a free time, tell the queen mother, and take you back, but before that, Xue'er can't run around anymore, you know?" ”

"Well, Xue'er knows, mom is so good." Hearing that Nalan Xinyue agreed to herself, Xue'er's face finally showed a smile.

"Well, Cher is so good." Nalan Xinyue stopped Xue'er and took Ling Zhi back to the New Year's Hall in a hurry, just as the current emperor Dongfang Hao was talking to everyone.

"Everyone, Aiqing, this time I suddenly called everyone because I had a dream last night, because the dream was too mysterious, so I found all Aiqing and explained this dream with me, I wonder if you Aiqing are willing?"

I saw Dongfang Hao with a smile on his face, just like a Maitreya Buddha, looking at all the ministers and family members around the main hall. It's just that if you look closely, there is no smile in the depths of the crooked eyes, on the contrary, there is a sharp coldness hidden in it.

As soon as Xue'er sat down, she heard such a speechless golden mouth, is this ancient emperor sick, had a broken dream, and asked the monk Qin Tianjian to interpret the dream, why did he toss all the ministers and even his family members, thinking of this, Xue'er's head was buried even lower. It's too boring, it's better to sleep.

The other ministers, seeing that the emperor was so Yaxing, hurriedly complied one by one, only Ling Xiaotian held the wine glass and did not make a sound.

Dongfang Hao turned his head to look at Ling Xiaotian, raised his eyebrows slightly at Ling Xiaotian's silence, and a trace of incomprehensible eyes flashed in his eyes,

"Burial Emperor Star?!" The prayer hall was in an uproar, and the originally quiet banquet suddenly became noisy. Because of Dongfang Hao's sentence to bury the emperor star, the ministers immediately began to speculate and debate together.

The chief lieutenant Sun Wuyuan (Wuyuan) and the first assistant minister of the cabinet, when the prime minister Ouyang Wentian and the two of them, looked at each other at the same time, and there were thunderstorms and rolling waves in their eyes.

The burial of the emperor star is not ominous, but it is better than ominous. That's because it's like a sword hanging over the head of every Son of Heaven, it's the nemesis of the True Dragon Son of Heaven, and it's a star that was born specifically to replace Zi Weixing, that is, the Heavenly Destiny Constellation of the True Dragon Son of Heaven.

As far as the people are concerned, it may become a new emperor and a new dynasty, but for the royal family, it is absolutely not allowed to appear, and once it appears, it will rather be killed by mistake than let go. Could it be that the emperor's dream is related to the burial of the emperor? Or has it been a little too peaceful in this world, and it's time for the demons to move?

Ling Xiaotian knew that this question could not be answered, and if anyone answered this question at this time, then it might be the first to attract the emperor's speculation. Of course, Ling Xiaotian didn't want to answer, but someone was eyeing him, or rather, Ling Fu.

"Your Majesty, look at what you said so mysteriously, according to the concubines, this question is not difficult to answer at all, and there must be someone here who can answer it." The bewitching voice echoed in the prayer hall, and Ling Xiaotian chuckled in his heart when he heard it, and a bad premonition arose. is the biological mother of the third prince, the jade concubine.

"Oh? But the concubine said, look, who in this hall can answer my question? Dongfang Hao raised his eyebrows slightly, grabbed the bewitching Jade Guifei sitting on his right hand, and asked with a doting face.

"Huh...... Your Majesty, I heard that the little daughter of Ling Mansion, although she is young, but she is well-read and intelligent, and she can almost argue with the master of Taixue Mansion, I think that Ling Mansion's daughter must have the true inheritance of General Ling, and she will not be allowed to shave her eyebrows at a young age, and she will be the first talented woman in my Tianlong Dynasty. ”

After Yu Guifei finished speaking, the fox's eyebrows were raised slightly, and she looked at Ling Xiaotian with a charming smile, but in the depths of her eyes, bursts of ice blades flashed, as if she was going to cut Ling Xiaotian with a thousand knives.

"Lingfu's daughter? Oh, Concubine Ai didn't say that I forgot, the old general didn't know if he could bring Ling Qianjin today, a few days ago in the imperial study, I felt that Ling Qianjin was very smart, and now Yu Guifei is so strongly recommended, why don't you let Ling Qianjin answer a try? ”

Dongfang Hao looked at Ling Xiaotian with a smile, looking like a virtuous monarch. Ling Xiaotian looked at this, hurriedly put down the wine glass in his hand, stood up and bowed to Dongfang Hao and Yu Guifei at the top, "Thanks to the emperor's love, the little girl has just entered the Taixue Academy for two days, and there is no talent and intelligence that the mother said, and the ministers are also anxious about the inferior girl's knowledge every day, I am afraid that the emperor and the mother will be disappointed, and the little girl will make amends to the emperor." After speaking, he knelt in front of Dongfang Hao.

At this time, the prayer hall was already silent, and there was silence. Ouyang Wentian and Taiwei Elder Sun Wuyuan looked at each other, and Qi Qi chose to keep silent. It seems to be waiting, waiting for the emperor's reaction.

Dongfang Hao looked at Ling Xiaotian who was kneeling on the ground, and the smile on the corner of his mouth deepened, hum, old and immortal, even if you are the god of war enshrined by the Holy Ancestor, in front of me, the true son of heaven, you still have to kneel down to worship?! Seeing that you have been arrogant for so many years, this time, I just took advantage of the inference made by the high priest this time to take away your military power! Thinking of this, the smile on Dongfang Hao's face deepened, and he quickly got up, walked down the steps, and personally helped Ling Xiaotian up. This move immediately provoked the gasping sound of all the ministers in the hall.

"Old general, what is this doing, it's just a dream of mine, if the old general doesn't want to embarrass his daughter, if not, why do you have to make such a big gift, please get up quickly."

These words made Ling Xiaotian's bad premonition suddenly deepen a lot. If he really responded to the emperor's words like this and didn't let his daughter come out to answer the questions, I am afraid that on the next day, in the world, it will be rumored that he is a master of Lingxiao Tiangong, regardless of the request of the saint, in front of all the civil and military officials, denying the face of today's son.

But if Xue'er is asked to answer this question, let's not talk about whether Xue'er understands the meaning of this burial emperor star, as long as her daughter speaks, then the jade concubine on the stage must have already thought of countermeasures, and I am afraid that it will not be easy to get out of this palace at that time.

Moreover, the burial of the emperor star, such a sensitive and strict matter, one wrong answer, that is, the great crime of stealing the family and exterminating the clan, should not be answered by a child at all. But the emperor and the jade concubine actually bit the Ling Mansion to death and killed Xue'er, I'm afraid this is the main purpose of tonight's banquet, could it be that the emperor is ready to move the Ling Mansion? Or is it simply to vent for Concubine Yu and the third prince? Or did he already know the God of War Order?

Ling Xiaotian frowned, and was thinking about it, when suddenly a childish voice resounded in the Hall of Prayer. "Your Majesty the Emperor, if Xue'er answers, will it be the moon of the high priest in the palace to our Ling Mansion?"
