Thinking that Nine Emperor Uncle would definitely not speculate, Ji Ruhuan looked at Nine Emperor Uncle and asked, "Did you find something?"

Dugu Chiyan nodded with a slightly gloomy face, "The people who found out about the emperor sent a group of people away, no surprise, it should be Jin Buqu and his party." ”

Ji Ruhuan frowned, "This is simply a return to the mountain." ”

"But in the eyes of the emperor, it is his chance to get rid of us, after all, they have the same goal. ”

Ji Ruhuan was silent, what the Nine Emperor Uncles said was right, they are now completely against the emperor, and now the emperor and the Heavenly Xuanjiao do have the same goal, that is, to get rid of them.

Dugu Chiyan opened his mouth and continued, "I was still too careless, and I actually let them take advantage of the opportunity to catch up with the emperor." ”

Ji Ruhuan stretched out his hand and shook the hand of the Nine Emperor Uncles, and comforted, "You can't be blamed for this, who knew that the emperor would do this kind of thing for us." ”

Dugu Chiyan held Ji Ruhuan's hand and responded, "That's it, it's useless to say anything now, we can only follow this line and find out where Jin Buqu and his party went." ”

Ji Ruhuan nodded in agreement, "Didn't you say a year ago that you would go to Nanyang in person to deal with South Vietnam?

Dugu Chi Yan pursed his lips and replied, "I can't go for the time being, let's let it go first, and then talk about dealing with the Tianxuan Sect." ”

Ji Ruhuan nodded, "Then what should we do next?"

Dugu Chi Yan said, "Go to Dayan, join Zixun and them, and then go to the Dongwu border together." ”

Ji Ruhuan said in surprise, "Let's go to the nest of the Duantian Xuan Sect?"

Dugu Chiyan nodded, "This Tianxuan Sect is all over the Zhongzhou Continent, if you want to completely get rid of the Tianxuan Sect, you can only go to the border of Dongwu and find their lair." ”

Ji Ruhuan said worriedly, "This Tianxuan Sect is not simple, we have suffered a few losses in their hands, and we want to end their lair, but I'm afraid it will be even more difficult, can we do it?"

Dugu Chi Yan responded, "Zixun said, she said that she moved her two fathers and promised to go with us, and I also sent a message to the master, and then let the Jiang Alliance Lord also gather the forces of the rivers and lakes to go together." ”

Ji Ruhuan looked at the Nine Emperor Uncle with shining eyes, "It's amazing, this time we must take this Tianxuan Sect and see who this Tianxuan Sect Master is." ”

Dugu Chiyan nodded, "I'll leave after fifteen, and things in Kyoto will be hard for you." ”

Ji Ruhuan frowned and looked at the Nine Emperor Uncles, "What do you mean?"

Dugu Chiyan replied helplessly, "Don't go, just now that the emperor is doing it, Kyoto must be inseparable from people, you stay in Kyoto and watch him." ”

Ji Ruhuan decisively refused, "No, I have to go with you." ”

Dugu Chiyan still wanted to dissuade him, so he heard Ji Ruhuan continue to speak, "If you don't let me come with you, I'll go by myself, unless you lock me up." ”

Dugu Chiyan looked at Ji Ruhuan beside her, and seeing the persistence in her eyes, he finally replied helplessly, "That's it, just leave the matter of Kyoto to the three princes." ”

Since it was decided that he would set off after the fifteenth day, the affairs of Kyoto still had to be carefully arranged, Ji Ruhuan was actually not at ease, the Ji family was under the emperor's nose, and without them in the battle, who knew if the emperor would take the opportunity to threaten the Ji family.

So the two of them were busy again, this busy, in a blink of an eye, it was the fifteenth day of the first month, the Lantern Festival was held, but this year the palace actually held a Lantern Festival dinner, and the queen personally gave an invitation to Princess Xian Wang Xian.

For this queen's cousin, Ji Ruhuan couldn't refuse, so she had to respond, and went with King Xian on the evening of the fifteenth.

Many people were staring at the decision of their Xianwang Mansion, and seeing that the Xianwang was planning to attend the banquet, the others did not shirk it anymore and followed to the banquet.

As a result, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month was no longer as deserted as the 30th anniversary banquet, and it resumed its liveliness again.

When the emperor and the queen went to the night banquet together, looking at the banquet full of Ming Dynasty ministers, he said to the queen on the side with a complicated expression, "The queen is still more appealing than me, and the invitation sent by the queen, these people are here." ”

The queen replied in a low voice, "It's just that Princess Xian gave the cousin of the concubine some face, and the others are afraid that they didn't come here because of the concubine's face, but because they saw the movement of the Xian Palace." ”

The queen was telling the truth, but the emperor on the side sank his face, and it was not easy to refute it, but the hand that was holding the queen suddenly let go, and at the same time accelerated his pace, and walked to the dragon chair at the front of the banquet first.

The queen paused, and then followed behind the emperor without changing her face.

Ji Ruhuan followed everyone to greet the emperor together, but his eyes kept looking at the two people who came over here, and saw the interaction between the two in his eyes, Ji Ruhuan couldn't help but leaned into the ear of the Nine Emperor Uncle and whispered, "This emperor and the queen are only afraid that they are no longer the loving couple they were in the East Palace, and they seem to be separated from their hearts." ”

Thinking of the sacrifice made by this cousin for the seriously ill prince at the beginning, Ji Ruhuan couldn't help but sigh, feeling worthless for this cousin.

waited for the emperor and the queen to go to the first place and sit down, and called everyone to be flat, and everyone returned to their respective positions and sat down.

The emperor began to say a congratulatory message with a wine glass, and Ji Ruhuan took the opportunity to bite his ear with the Nine Emperor Uncles, "How did you say that this cousin suddenly invited the emperor to do it? Could it be that he was threatened by the emperor and forced to do it?"

Dugu Chiyan glanced at the queen sitting next to the emperor, even the gorgeous makeup couldn't hide the haggard queen on her face, and shook her head.

Who would have thought that the husband and wife, who should have been in deep love, have come to this point because they have sat in a high position?

Ji Ruhuan was about to bite his ear with the Nine Emperor Uncles, but was interrupted by the first emperor, because the emperor raised his wine glass towards them.

Even though water and fire have long been incompatible, the emperor still did not forget to do enough at the banquet and said enough scenes.

As for Dugu Chiyan, he didn't open his mouth the whole time, but he still picked up the wine glass and drank the wine very face-savingly.

After the emperor finished drinking a circle of wine, the queen, who had been silent on the side, suddenly stood up and walked to the middle of the hall.

Everyone looked at the queen who suddenly got up, and didn't understand what she was planning to do when she walked to the middle of the hall.

I saw that the queen suddenly knelt down towards the first emperor, crossed her hands and raised the top of her head to bow down to the emperor.

The emperor was also confused by the queen's sudden operation, and he didn't understand what the queen wanted to do with such a big gift?

But he quickly reacted and said, "What is the queen doing? ”

After speaking, he got up from the dragon chair and planned to come down to help the queen in person.

However, the queen's next words made the emperor pause and look at the queen in disbelief.

I heard the queen speak, "The concubine has been married to His Majesty for many years, but nothing has come out, for the sake of the royal heirs, the concubine invites herself to go to the court, and since then the concubine will go to the imperial mausoleum, accompanied by the ancient Buddha of the green lantern, to pray for Your Majesty and the royal heirs." ”

The queen's sudden words not only stunned the emperor, but also the Manchu civil and military who participated in the banquet were also in disbelief.

The emperor who stood on the stairs in a daze came back to his senses for a while, looked at the queen who was still kneeling in the center of the hall, and said, "Yu'er, don't mess around. ”

This is when she was still the crown princess, the crown prince called her, since she ascended the throne and became the emperor, except when something asked her, she basically didn't call her Yu'er anymore, most of them called her the queen.

It's a pity that she was disappointed again and again, and the queen will never be soft-hearted because of this title, she crossed her hands again, and said loudly, "Please Your Majesty put the overall situation first, and the heirs of the Ming Dynasty first, and agree to the request of the concubine." ”

Most people are still immersed in the absurdity of the queen's invitation to the court, but there are still people who stand up and agree, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks what the queen said is not unreasonable, Your Majesty has been married to the queen for several years, but there has been no heir, and now Your Majesty is the son of the great tomorrow, and he has to think about the heirs of the royal family." ”

The emperor looked at the man who spoke with a gloomy face, and rebuked coldly, "Shut up. ”

The minister fell to his knees in fright, not daring to speak again.

The emperor walked quickly to the queen from the steps, personally helped the queen who was lying on the ground, and persuaded him in a gentle tone, "Yu'er, don't mess around, if there is anything to do after the banquet is over." ”

The queen was helped to kneel up straight, but she didn't intend to get up from the ground, and answered, "Your Majesty, the concubine is not messing around, and your Majesty is concerned about the overall situation and agrees to the concubine's request." ”

Seeing that the queen was so persistent, the gentleness of the emperor could not be maintained after all, and gradually became stiff, until he completely sank his face and said in a cold voice, "You are fooling around, I don't agree." ”

The expression on the queen's face gradually began to change into sadness, the emperor looked at the expression on her face, suddenly felt very flustered, regained his gentleness again, reached out to help the queen, and coaxed softly, "Yu'er, don't make trouble, hurry up, is it that I have snubbed you recently, so I am angry? ”

With so many courtiers in the hall watching, the emperor can coax the queen in such a low voice, which can be regarded as giving the queen enough face.

However, he still failed to help the queen up, nor could he dispel the sorrow on the queen's face, and then the queen suddenly began to cough non-stop, and the people in the coughing hall were flustered, as if they were about to cough and die at any time.

However, the next scene surprised everyone again, and they saw that the queen suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, and sprinkled it in front of her, between her and the emperor.

The emperor was really panicked this time, and hurriedly shouted loudly, "Quick, call the imperial doctor." ”

However, the queen took out a silk handkerchief from her sleeve unhurriedly, wiped the blood from her lips lightly, and said, "Your Majesty, there is no need, the concubine's body, the concubine's body knows it herself." ”
