Chapter 159: The Storm is Coming

In Gyeongbok Palace, the eunuch palace maid stood respectfully on one side, in the dormitory, the Empress Dowager Chu wore a golden phoenix hairpin between her temples, and the colorful gemstone hairpin shone extraordinarily, she looked solemn, wearing a dark green embroidered phoenix peony palace dress, and the wide skirt was behind her, very luxurious and majestic, and slowly walked out of the dormitory with the support of the palace maids on both sides.

"Queen Mother, slow down, be careful of the threshold", Yanxiu, the palace maid who supported her, said cautiously.

Empress Dowager Chu glanced at her, smiled slightly and said, "You, you are the most intimate, since the mourning family has healed, even the emperor does not care about the mourning family as much as you."

"The queen mother, you will make fun of the slave maid, although the emperor has a lot of opportunities, but he remembers the queen mother very much, the slave can serve the queen mother, that is the slave and the maid ancestor accumulate virtue, how can the slave and the maid be compared with the emperor", Yanxiu hung her head shyly, and her hibiscus-like face was filled with a touch of agility.

"You, your mouth is the most in line with the mourning family, if everyone in this palace is like you, the mourning family will be able to put less effort into it", Empress Dowager Chu looked at Yanxiu's shy expression, and was in a good mood.

Empress Dowager Chu sat on the phoenix chair in the center of the main hall of Gyeongbok Palace with the support of the palace maid, and after a while, Nangong Lingmai walked into the hall with her slender legs, and the palace maid and eunuch hurriedly saluted on one side, and he said lightly: "Flat."

Then he walked to the phoenix chair and saluted the Empress Dowager Chu, "The emperor greets the Empress Dowager."

"Get up, the emperor came to see the mourning family in such a hurry, but is there anything important?" Empress Dowager Chu looked at Nangong Ling with a soft gaze and asked.

Nangong Ling glanced at the eunuch and palace maid behind him, waved his hand and shouted, "You guys go down first."

After a while, only Nangong Ling and Empress Dowager Chu and the palace maid Yanxiu were left in the hall, "If you have anything to say, the emperor will say it, Yanxiu is a mourner, you don't have to avoid it", Empress Dowager Chu pointed to Yanxiu with a solemn expression, looked at Nangong Ling and said in a deep voice.

Nangong Ling was the first to look at Yanxiu when she heard this, and this glance made a trace of waves in his heart, only to see that she had a delicate posture, her face was as bright as the autumn moon, elegant and refined, and her appearance and temperament were no worse than the concubines in the harem, at this time, she stood beside the Queen Mother very decently, and suddenly her eyes collided, Yanxiu's cheeks were suddenly extremely ruddy, and she hurriedly lowered her head, while Nangong Ling hooked the corners of her mouth.

Empress Dowager Chu saw it in her eyes and couldn't help but chuckle, Yanxiu is her favorite palace maid, no matter her character, appearance and temperament, she can't find faults, and the female red female training is even more convenient, and she is loyal, but the only shortcoming is that she is from a humble background, just a daughter of an official wearing a Jiupin county order, however, it does not affect her mind to give Yanxiu to the emperor as a concubine, such an outstanding woman, she is really reluctant to cheapen outsiders.

"The mourning family plans to give Yanxiu to the emperor as a concubine, I don't know what the emperor wants"? Empress Dowager Chu raised her eyebrows lightly and asked tentatively.

When Nangong Ling heard the words of the Empress Dowager Chu, she suddenly came back to her senses, her handsome face returned to normal, not enthusiastic but not cold, "The queen mother's words, the emperor dare not disobey."

"That's the case, that Yanxiu, you go and prepare first, you don't have to stay in Gyeongbokgung Palace tonight", Empress Dowager Chu nodded with satisfaction, looked at Yanxiu sideways and said softly.

Yanxiu still hung her head, her heart was like a deer crashing, fluttering and jumping, the Queen Mother had said that she would serve the emperor, but she always thought that those were just jokes, but unexpectedly, now that the Queen Mother said a word, she is no longer a slave, but a master, she is still a little shy under the joy, and even forgot about thanks, nodded in a panic and trotted out.

Nangong Ling looked at Yanxiu's back, and the corners of his mouth hooked, there were so many palace maids in the palace, but there were few in his eyes, and this Yanxiu was an exception.

After Yanxiu closed the palace door, Nangong Ling's face suddenly sank, his eyes flashed with a ruthless color, and he said in a deep voice: "The emperor has already grabbed Nangong Yu's handle, which is enough to put him to death, this time, the emperor has laid a net of heaven and earth, and it will be difficult for him Nangong Yu to fly out of the capital."

Subsequently, Nangong Ling told the Empress Dowager Chu about the letterhead and the rumors of Yingdu, and after listening to the Empress Dowager Chu, a touch of ruthlessness flashed on her originally dignified and beautiful face, and at the same time she looked at Nangong Ling, and said with a look of admiration between her eyebrows: "The cunning fox can't escape the eyes of the hunter, but these two things alone are not enough to convince everyone, if you add Nangong Yu's assassination of the Empress Dowager, the name of this chaotic minister and thief can be detained on his head, this time no matter what, he can't be allowed to turn over, and he must get rid of the future trouble forever." ”。

Nangong Ling nodded and sneered: "Don't worry, the queen mother, this time the emperor will be fully deployed, as long as Nangong Yu is eliminated, I will not hesitate to pay a price."

"It's a pity that Concubine Yun, in the end it's just a crime of implication, plus she has a gold medal from the first emperor, but it is a little difficult to get rid of her as well", as soon as the words fell, Mrs. Chu said with a worried look at the back.

"The emperor understands what the queen mother means, but this matter can't be delayed any longer, in case Nangong Yu is prepared, as for Concubine Yun, it is not too late to get rid of Nangong Yu first, and then slowly rectify her, if she plans to use the gold medal to save Nangong Yu, it will be a big mistake, even if the first emperor is alive, he will not dare to risk the disapproval of the world to protect Nangong Yu, the chaotic ministers and thieves, everyone will be punished, why be afraid of that little gold medal."

When Empress Dowager Chu heard this, her brows stretched, her worries dissipated, and she smiled proudly: "This time the emperor is very thoughtful, seeing that the emperor is so smart, the mourning family is relieved, it's just the girl of Shui Lianyue."

Empress Dowager Chu didn't continue, looking at the hesitation on Nangong Ling's face, she knew that he was determined to like the woman, for a long time, she sighed lightly and said: "If you really like it, bring her into the palace, and you still need to call her dead to the outside world, after all, she is carrying the secret of the treasure of the Golden Spirit Palace, and there is some use value, if others know that she is dead, the secret of the treasure will definitely die, at that time, as long as the emperor is attentive to her, why worry that she will not confide the truth to you?"

"She only has hatred for the emperor, but no love, the emperor has promised her half of the country, and she is not moved by the queen's position, how can she be willing to sue the emperor", while speaking, Nangong Ling frowned slightly, and seemed to be a little melancholy.

Empress Dowager Chu's eyes flickered, a touch of coldness flashed quickly in her eyes, and she said indifferently: "Don't think that the mourning family doesn't know, the reason why Nangong Yu is willing to marry her is just that you are forced to press her with a holy decree, and the reason why she is willing to marry Nangong Yu is also because you use her mother as a threat, you can think of these things, the secret of the treasure of the Golden Spirit Palace, are you still worried that she will not sue you?"

Nangong Ling was slightly stunned after hearing this, then sighed lightly, and stopped talking, in addition to the secret of the treasure of the Golden Spirit Palace, he wanted to get her more, whether it was body or mind, he had never had such a strong sense of conquest for a woman, in the face of her arrogant temperament, beautiful and cold face, he really wanted to tear it all apart, and see what she was like inside.

Empress Dowager Chu saw that Nangong Ling no longer spoke, she knew his thoughts, once, she also saw a beautiful face, arrogant temperament of a woman, this woman was born, it attracted the favor of all men in the world, subverted the country, poured out the world, scattered all the wealth, just for her, even if only look at her, then the body and mind sank, can not extricate themselves, although this water ripple moon is not as good as the woman, but eight times out of ten, any man sees her, he can no longer let go.

Such a woman makes all the women in the world jealous, envious, jealous and hateful, she is like a poison that slowly erodes the human body, it will make people crazy and crazy, she doesn't want her son to fall into it, thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and the domination of the world is still waiting for him to achieve.

"You go and prepare for Nangong Yu's affairs first, as for Shui Lianyue, as the mourning family said, if you like it, you can secretly bring it into the palace and treat each other well, until you find out the secret of the treasure of the Golden Spirit Palace, you can make other plans", Empress Dowager Chu slowly calmed down and comforted Nangong Ling and said.

She must first stabilize the emperor's heart, after all, the emperor has already been hooked by Shui Lianyue, so she can't force it, otherwise she can only destroy the relationship between their mother and son, as long as Shui Lianyue enters the palace, she still can't find a chance to get rid of her?

Nangong Ling came back to his senses and nodded, everything is a fantasy now, as long as he gets rid of Nangong Yu, everything is still under his control?

It is said that after Nangong Yu returned to King Yu's mansion, he called Qingyuan Moyun to the study of Jinhuaju.

The room was unusually silent, Qing Yuan and Mo Yun looked at Nangong Yu with worried faces, after returning from the prince, they didn't say a word, just sat on the chair and pondered, but looking at the expression of the prince, they knew that it was very unpleasant to enter the palace this time.

"Lord Wang, what did Nangong Ling say at today's banquet? Why is the prince at a loss when he returns home"? Half-loud, Qing Yuan couldn't hold back any longer, and asked softly, with a hint of anxiety in his tone.

Mo Yun nodded approvingly, Nangong Yu sighed lightly, his black eyes suddenly became cold, and he said with a gloomy face: "Nangong Ling has doubts about this king, I believe that he has already read the letter, at today's banquet, although this king and him did not tear their faces, but from his words, he still noticed a trace of abnormality, for many years he has not been able to catch any handle of this king, now such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, I believe he will definitely not let it go, I am afraid that something big will happen to King Yu's mansion."

Qing Yuan frowned deeply, thought for a moment, and analyzed: "If you want to cure the prince's sin with just a letterhead, I'm afraid it's not that simple, if Nangong Ling really takes action, I'm afraid there are other articles in it."

Nangong Yu glanced at Qingyuan, nodded slightly, and his expression was even more solemn, "The matter of Yingdu will not be blocked for long, with Nangong Ling's person, if he hears a hint of wind and grass, he will make a big fuss, and this king still needs to go to Yingdu to deal with this matter as soon as possible."

"The subordinates have already sent people to Yingdu, and the flying eagle has passed the book to Lingyunmen, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, everything needs to be prepared in advance."

"At dusk, this king will rush to Yingdu, and the affairs of the house will be handed over to you and Moyun to take care of, as for Tao Ranju, the dead dead, the wounded, the unconscious, there should be no problem for the time being, but you still can't take it lightly, understand?"

When Qing Yuan and Mo Yun heard this, they immediately said respectfully in unison: "Yes, Lord Wang."

As the sun sets, the golden light sways throughout the Yuwang Mansion, the breeze blows, the blue water ripples slightly, and the willow branches keep swaying, adding a touch of quiet and peaceful atmosphere.

However, the wind and rain are coming, and the tranquility and tranquility are only on the surface, at this time, the Yuwang Mansion has been surrounded by the Imperial Forest Army dressed as ordinary people, and the Xiao Cavalry Battalion is ready to go, and the capital is surging in private, just waiting for the emperor's order.
