Xiu Yunjin looked at the osmanthus cake in front of him, it was still steaming slightly, with a faint fragrance of osmanthus flowers, but she had not moved a piece since the maid sent it.

Her eyes were cold, and she was lying on the couch on her side, as noble and proud as an ice lotus.

Today's temptation, she also understood the meaning of the cloud cultivation mirror. Her good brother has been weak since he was a child, although he is not tortured by illness, but as far as the stump legs are concerned, he is also tortured, trapped in a wheelchair all day long, how can a waste man be a monarch.

Although he has no intention of taking the throne, as a descendant of the dynasty's bloodline, it is impossible to get out of it. He must respect an emperor and trust, assist, and support her.

And who is this candidate for the emperor? Is it themselves, or their little sister who lives among the people?

Xiu Yunjin's struggle for the throne when she was seriously ill was something she had never thought about, and she felt that as long as she lived, it was God's greatest favor for her.

But now that she is well, like a phoenix being reborn in Nirvana, she can't help but fight, this is what she should have. She had no other worries about this battle for the throne.

If it is true, as people say in private, that the queen mother wants to consider marrying herself to someone else, then isn't she a political burial?

It's not fair to her. Why can my sister enjoy her father's love since she was a child, grow up carefree and healthy, and now she is cared for by her mother, and even inherit the throne.

And he lacks the company of his father, his mother doesn't love and neglect him, and now he is being left out in the cold! She is not reconciled, she does not want to be dominated, ignored, deprived of her right to choose!

So she's going to fight! You must not be someone else's marionette and be controlled by others!

"Nurse, tomorrow is the ceremony of sealing the king, find a few guards in private, and take the opportunity to search the palace to the bottom, it is bound to find out the little emperor."

She is still ageless at the age of forty, her skin is white and beautiful like an eighteen-year-old girl's nurse, and her eyes are also full of scheming, she knows what her eldest princess thinks, and she supports her idea.

Why did the noble princess who was raised by herself with her heart be left out in the cold, and she was seriously ill and bedridden for several years and never received the pity of others. A little emperor who came back from the folk is about to compete for Xiu Yunjin's favor.

He said "yes" and walked back.

The royal city, which seems to be as calm as water, is actually accumulating strength, preparing for tomorrow's feudal ceremony. The palaces began to get busy, whether it was the Luanhuang Palace, the Chaoyang Palace, or the Zhaoqing Palace, they were all sending their respective guards to wait for tomorrow's ceremony to take the opportunity to search for the missing Luo Yunying.

In the main hall of the priest's mansion, Xiu Yuzhen and Qi Ying are lighting the lamp and having a long talk, in order to be the king ceremony tomorrow.

Wu Chung is a Miao person, as a descendant of King Miao, he originally came here with a friendly mentality, but he was unexpectedly controlled by his own selfishness. He wants to win Xiu Yuzhen's heart, and he wants to establish a foothold in the imperial capital and become the most authoritative man.

He coveted Xiu Yuzhen's beauty, and was even more greedy for this peaceful and fertile land. He's going to stay here and be the king here.

But he never thought that he was already calculated, and as soon as the feudal ceremony was messed up, he was randomly found a reason to be confined. It's a few years.

Wu Chung seemed to have disappeared, and he was never seen again in the imperial capital.

Xiu Yuzhen thought that now that he was in his hands, it was irreparable to make him a Fengjun.

At present, the frontier is in turmoil, and he may take this opportunity to let Miao Jiang see his sincerity and help himself when necessary.

Wu Chung will definitely not ignore it.

A gust of cold wind blew, causing Xiu Yuzhen to cough lightly, the disease was getting more and more serious. As soon as the wind blew, she felt that the headache was unbearable, and she must quickly ask for Wu Chung's antidote.

She didn't want to die yet, and she was even more unwilling to give up the throne to others. Whether it is a foreign race or her descendants, it is better not to have any.

Next to the two stood Aoki's mother-in-law and the guard Huai'an.

"What else does the empress have to explain to tomorrow's throne ceremony?"

"The high priest knows, divination must be carried out on every big day, and tomorrow's divination will have to bother the high priest."

"Empress, this is what I should do."

Xiu Yuzhen nodded and looked at the purple-eyed man in front of him, he was the high priest of the imperial capital.

At the beginning, he desperately recommended him to take over, which aroused the opposition of all the courtiers, and later if it were not for those few proverbs and his performance, I am afraid that he would really not be able to step down.

The position of high priest varies from a hundred years to a few years. Who can be left to rest is left to the foreknowledge and later cultivation of the previous priest.

The position of high priest symbolizes the prosperity of a country, and in the many years that Qi Ying has been in power, the world of the imperial capital has been smooth, the grains are abundant, the frontier is no longer invaded, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.

On that alone, he's doing a good job. What's more, he has a life-saving grace for him, and Qi Ying is even more respectful to himself.

Xiu Yuzhen admired him in terms of ability, and even felt that Qi Ying's position was better than Luo Qinghe at the beginning.

It was as if he were the chosen one, and he inherited the position of priest without any training. His privilege today is as if the priesthood had been tailor-made for him by the gods.

The legend of the High Priest has always been there, and it has been passed down for thousands of years. She was also curious about what the first high priest was like, and what would the high priest with different pupils do now?

The candlelight on the candle stand flutters with the cold wind and can be extinguished at the slightest carelessness.

"How many years has the high priest been in the imperial capital?"

"More than six years."

"I remember when I first met you, you were a young man, and now you are a man. After so many years, I would like to thank you for your dedication to the imperial capital. ”

"It's all as it should be, it's because I want to thank the empress for saving her life, as well as the love and acceptance, that I have the opportunity to show it."

Xiu Yuzhen's phoenix eyes looked directly at the smiling man opposite, his purple eyes were as bright as gems, and the smile in his eyes seemed to be able to swallow people, making people fall into nostalgia and couldn't extricate themselves.

It's really a good pair of eyes, really rare eyes.

I'm afraid these eyes are where his magic lies.

Qi Ying's narrow Danfeng's eyes were full of arrogance, and his eyes were full of coldness and indecisiveness, as if he was above all living beings. With a faint feeling of looking down on all beings like a god, he is a god, a god who is generous to all beings.

In comparison with that arrogant and innate royal temperament, Qi Ying is not inferior to Xiu Yuzhen, but slightly better.

He is also a man who can be called a king and an emperor. It's just that his identity is too special, and he can't fully trust him. How did Qi Ying appear in the back mountain, after so many years, he still didn't give himself a clear answer.

He is the same as the majestic Panlong Mountain, full of fascination, which makes people want to explore, but have to consider the consequences. What is his relationship with that sacred mountain?

"The High Priest lives here alone, but I don't see you going out, but the outside world is pretty good."

"No matter where you live, happiness is the most important thing. I am attached to the landscape, so why bother with other things, I have to go to the crowd to see it. ”

"Didn't the high priest feel lonely when he lived alone for many years? Ordinary men are very yearning for Hongchen's old love, but the high priest seems to have escaped into an empty door, without any thoughts. ”

"In life, it is a personal choice to love or not to love. What's more, the deity remembered that there seemed to be a rule in the priestly law that if you have love, you no longer have power. Does the empress want me to fall into the mortal world? I believe that the empress has also seen the end of the priests of the past who violated the law. ”

How could she not know.

Her original husband, the previous high priest. For the sake of love, give up everything, what do you get? Not only emotional regret, but also backlash against the rules.

Any high priest who violates the law will be ruthless and loveless in this life, and he will die without true love. In severe cases, it is not allowed to exceed birth. This was a rule that had been in place since the first high priest appeared.

The legend of the first high priest has been sung for thousands of years, and although she did not have true love, she was forever blessed by the faith and blessings of all beings, and enjoyed the supreme incense.

It was a legend, a legend from a long time ago, so long ago that it was impossible to distinguish the truth from the false.

No one knows whether what happened to the first high priest is true or not. Is that sacred mountain the embodiment of her physical body?

Qi Ying was stunned, made her tea again, and said.

"Empress, I know what you're thinking. You can rest assured that I, as High Priest, will serve until the next High Priest is found. ”

Although the originally destined high priest was Huai'an, his appearance disrupted everything, and the next high priest was not sure who would be the next high priest.

"Qi Ying, you are kind to my imperial capital dynasty, and my cultivation of Yu Zhen is unforgettable. If something happens to me one day, I hope you will take good care of my little daughter Luo Yunying for me. ”

Although Xiu Yuzhen fancies power, she is ruthless and loveless in the first half of her life, and now her life is worrying, and she doesn't know when she will be in danger. She also has to use the rest of her life to protect the people around her.

Even if she is reluctant to take power now, she must find someone who reassures her. It has to be Luo Yunying, she wants TOEFL to Qi Ying, TOEFL to Luo Qinghe, and let them assist Luo Yunying to jointly lead the Imperial Capital Dynasty to glory.

Qi Ying watched Xiu Yuzhen put down the shelf, begging sincerely with his face, and he also figured out something in his heart.

It seems that she really plans to pass on the throne to Luo Yunying, but it is too early to say this. According to her ambitions, it seems that she will not let go of the royal power until the last moment. Why did you suddenly talk about it now?

Thinking of this, Qi Ying looked at Xiu Yuzhen through his eyes again, although his face was ruddy, his eyes were dull, and his face was not naturally red, but like a dull red on rouge. His lips were also a little chapped, his forehead was black, and his face was full of must.

It's an ominous symbol. It seems that Xiu Yuzhen has really been plotted.

He knew that Xiu Yuzhen was also wooing himself by telling him this, hoping to help her pass on this lineage. When she is overwhelmed, give the power to someone she is comfortable with. But why didn't she consider Xiu Yunjin? It's obviously the same bloodline.

Does everyone think that Luo Yunying is very special?

"I know what you're thinking. Yunjing's body is weak, his personality is gentle and weak, and he can't see the suffering of the people. Although there is a heart, it is powerless. Unfit to be a king.

And I have already prepared for Yaoyao. She was not a man fit to be a king. Although he is ambitious, he is too anxious, brave and unplanned, and it is difficult to achieve great things. In addition, she is not in good health, and as a mother, I owe it to her, and I don't want her to work hard because of the royal power.

And Ning Ning is different, she is still young, plastic, naturally smart and thoughtful, Luo Qinghe taught her very well, she has lived in low-level folk since she was a child, she understands the suffering of the people better than Yaoyao, and is more sympathetic.

After Ning Ning succeeds to the throne, Luo Qinghe will stay by her side to assist her, and I believe that Ning Ning will definitely be a better empress than me. As for Yaoyao, I've already considered finding a family for her, and I'll discuss it with her another day. ”

Xiu Yu Zhen explained, and Qi Ying suddenly became enlightened. It turned out that she had already planned all this, including the future direction of everyone.

What principles can the children of the emperor have, but they are born and choose to accept the responsibilities given to them by God.

For a moment, Qi Ying didn't know who to sympathize with.
