Chapter 556: The Empress's Decision
In the emperor's opinion, he is the only one who can get the news of the zombie army as soon as possible. But this is not the case.
Not only did Concubine Yun get the news, but even the queen would soon get the news.
At this time, the queen's body was lying on the bed, and there was a maid next to her who kept shaking a fan for her, this maid was naturally a cronie she brought from the Xu Mansion, and she could be trusted enough.
It was already three o'clock in the morning, but she hadn't slept yet.
Although she is a queen, she knows better than anyone that the reason why she became a queen is not because she is virtuous enough to be able to honor the world.
The reason why he was able to become the queen was because she had a huge family behind her, the Xu family, which controlled almost half of the forces of the Zhongzhou Empire, and had been guarding the Xu family in the north for thousands of years.
Moreover, she also knows very well that once the Xu family collapses. As a queen, she will immediately be stripped of the title of queen, and then permanently sent to the cold palace.
Tianyong City does not believe in tears, only in strength.
Therefore, the most important thing for the empress in Tianyun City is to monitor everything in the palace to ensure that the emperor's will does not harm the interests of their Xu family.
"How did you do that?" the queen squinted at Yun Yi who was standing in front of the bed, her only daughter.
At this time, Yun Yi's face had become the same as usual, a face had become fat, covered with blue and purple pimples, and Yun Yi, who originally had a graceful figure, became ugly because of this face.
However, the queen didn't care much about the ugliness on Yun Yi's face, the only thing she cared about was whether the strength of the Xu family could continue.
Just like she told Yun Yi before.
"I didn't give birth to a son for Mingde, but the emperor has already appointed three princes as the crown prince, that is to say, in the future struggle for imperial power, there is no matter of our Xu family. ”
"Moreover, you are a daughter, and you should also know that in the future royal family, you will not be trusted and reused. Therefore, if we want to maintain our current power in the future, the only thing we can rely on is the Xu family. ”
"The battle in the palace is far beyond your imagination, so maintaining our strength is the most important thing. ”
Whenever Yun Yi saw the queen, she could always remember what the queen said to her. At the beginning, she still recited with infinite resentment in her heart, that is because you have no ability to give Mingde a son.
But now that he has grown up, he still understands that even if the queen gives birth to a son for Mingde, he will not be made the crown prince. The position of the emperor was originally a compromise reached by weighing the forces of all parties.
If the heirs of the Xu family and the royal family are made princes, the remaining Li family and the Jin family will inevitably be united tightly. When the time comes, it is even possible that the entire Zhongzhou Empire will fall into a civil war.
Therefore, the best model for the four major families of the entire Zhongzhou Empire is to divide but not separate, and unite but not to be one.
"She didn't say yes to me. Yun Yi replied respectfully.
On the one hand, the queen is her mother, and of course, on the other hand, the queen is the only person who loves her in the entire Tianyong City, and as for his father, who is the current saint Mingde, he won't even look at her.
"Then we have only one choice. But don't worry, I've already put you in touch, and the Demon Clan's Dark Blade will marry you. At that time, with the Dark Blade as your backing, no one will dare to go wild against you. ”
The queen was not surprised that Qin Tian rejected her daughter's marriage. In fact, the people who have reached her point have long been prepared for the various outcomes of the matter.
"And what did he do?" Yun Yi asked.
"Do you mean Qin Tian?" there was a hint of mockery in the queen's voice.
Yun Yi didn't speak, just nodded.
The queen's eyes suddenly sharpened, and she read another meaning from her daughter's unusual behavior.
Yun Yi likes this Qin Tian.
"Do you like him?" asked the Queen.
Yun Yi neither admitted nor denied it. Just looked at the queen: "I just want to know what will happen to him." ”
"We don't have a choice about what to do with him, he is the young sect master of the Xuanyun Sect, if we let him and Yun Guifei get mixed up, it will form a terrifying force. When the time comes, the emperor will definitely use this power to weaken us. ”
"So, you're going to send a killer and kill him?"
"Yes. The queen did not refuse.
"He is the young sect master of the Xuanyun Sect, if you kill him, do you think the Xuanyun Sect will stand by and watch?" Thinking that the Xu family would be the enemy of the entire Xuanyun Sect in the future, Yun Yi's body trembled.
After all, the Xuanyun Sect has been the most powerful sect in the entire Zhongzhou Empire in the past 10,000 years, and its underlying strength is even more terrifying than that of the imperial family.
"But we let it go, do you think the Xuanyun Sect will stand by and watch?" The queen said coldly: "The best way to do it now is to kill him and coerce the royal family to stand with us." In this way, we can continue to maintain our good relationship with the royal family, and we can also prevent the strength of our Xu family from falling. ”
"I know you're afraid of the strength of the Xuanyun Sect, but I also want you to understand that real power is earned by fighting, and if you only rely on stratagem, you will only become a pawn in the hands of others. ”
Yun Yi nodded. As the daughter of the queen, she has a deep understanding of this.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps, and the man in black rushed into it. The queen just wanted to express her anger, but quickly calmed down, because it was the Xu family's unique secret envoy who came in.
Only when a major change occurs will the Xu family send a secret envoy into the palace.
Looking at the letter handed over by the secret envoy, a sense of unease rose in the queen's heart. Could it be that something big happened that made the Xu family desperate and asked the secret envoy to send him a letter.
However, when he opened the letter, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
"God help me. ”
"What's going on?" Yun Yi asked.
For his daughter, the queen did not have any reservations, he directly handed the letter to Yun Yi.
Yun Yi took the letter and was shocked when she saw the contents of the letter.
The letter said that the county ordered Li Liyang to lead an army of 200,000 zombies to Tianyong City, and the counties along the road could not be stopped.
As soon as Yun Yi wanted to say something, the queen's voice sounded in her ears: "To treat this force, I believe, it is bound to gather the power of the whole world." ”
"And if I kill Qin Tian at this juncture, then even the Xuanyun Sect must not dare to embarrass me. ”
Yun Yi looked at the queen a little dumbfounded, as if she couldn't believe that these words actually came from her mother's mouth.
She was just about to say something, but she heard the queen herself say: "Yunyi, you remember, this is politics." ”
