Chapter Ninety-Four: The Blind Date of the New Emperor of the Northern Underworld
Northern Hades.
"Luo'er." Bei Minghao was awakened in his sleep. Beads of sweat ran down his cheeks.
"Your Majesty." Murong Qingyi came to Bei Minghao's bed in a flash." I'm having nightmares again."
Ever since Lo'er disappeared. Bei Minghao is often woken up by nightmares. In a dream. He watched as Lore fell into Death Valley. But he couldn't catch her. Luo'er's helpless and desperate eyes lingered in his mind. He wanted to jump with Lore. I found that I couldn't move my legs at all. I can only watch Luo'er fall little by little. His heart fell with hers.
Bei Minghao's breathing was a little short. The heartbreak in a dream doesn't go away when you wake up. On the contrary, it is getting more and more intense. It made him so painful that he couldn't breathe.
"It's fine." Bei Minghao waved his hand weakly. At this time, he was completely sleepy. Lift the quilt and get up and get out of bed. He turned and walked towards the bath.
Murong Qingyi hurriedly called the palace maid to prepare hot water for him. It's his habit. Every time I wake up from a nightmare. He couldn't sleep again. So he would go to the bath room to take a bath.
The heat fills the entire bath room. Bei Minghao sat quietly by the pool. Eyes tightly closed. I kept recalling the days when we lived together in the Valley of the Gods of Medicine. Luoer. Luoer. His heart kept crying. It seems that this is the only way. His heart is filled with endless sorrow so that it does not spread.
The next morning towards the back. Inside the Imperial Study.
"Your Majesty. The Emperor ordered someone to come and spread the word. Let the emperor go to Yongxiang Palace." Gonggong Li, the chief eunuch beside Bei Minghao, said in a respectful whisper.
Bei Minghao couldn't help frowning slightly. How could he not know the purpose of his father in calling him to the past.
"It's not empty."
"But......" Grandpa Li wanted to say something. But he was forced back by Bei Minghao's cold eyes." Be. Servants obey." After that, he quickly withdrew.
"I don't think the stubborn Emperor will stop there." Murong Qingyi's voice of some schadenfreude came out of nowhere.
"I've seen you've been too idle lately. News came from the border pass. There was a group of bandits who often descended the mountain to plague the people of the nearby villages. Why don't I send you to suppress it." Bei Minghao buried his head in the fold. Said coolly.
"Forget it, senior brother. You know, my duty is to take care of your old age. So where are you. I was right there." Murong Qingyi smiled awkwardly.
Bei Minghao didn't answer. Murong Qingyi had to obediently close his mouth. Alas. Ever since my brother sat on the throne. He followed his brother in the palace all day long. I'm almost sick.
"The Emperor has arrived." Outside the door, there was a loud and sharp shout from Gonggong Li.
Bei Minghao's sword eyebrows furrowed even tighter. And Murong Qingyi chuckled lightly without knowing whether he was alive or dead. This made Bei Minghao feel more and more irritable.
With the voice of Grandpa Li. The door to the study was pushed open. The leader who walked in the forefront was naturally his own father, who was too emperor. Although slightly dissatisfied. But Bei Minghao has always respected his father very much. So he got up and went up to meet him.
"Sons, see father."
"Hmm." Unexpectedly, the emperor didn't even look at him. Then he turned to a petite figure beside him and said, "Xue'er. I've wronged you. Since the emperor doesn't accept the love of an old man like me. That's the only one who came over." The Emperor's words were clearly dissatisfied.
Emperor Taishang said so. Only then did Bei Minghao notice that there was a delicate woman standing next to the Emperor. Her appearance is like a flower. It is also a rare beauty embryo. However, Bei Minghao only glanced at it in a hurry. Then he looked at his father a little helplessly and said, "Father. Erchen really has a lot of twists and turns that haven't been approved. It's not a deliberate excuse to shirk."
"Even so. It's lunchtime now. No matter how busy it is. You have to eat the rice. It's hard to think that I can't even move this little bit of time." The Emperor is such a foolish person.
"It's Erchen who is too focused. I didn't know it was time for dinner."
"That's it. I have ordered food to be delivered. Let's dine in the side hall of the imperial study today." The Emperor waved his hand. Motioned to the father-in-law next to him to go to the imperial dining room to pass the meal. Then he led the beautiful woman to the side hall of the imperial study.
"This is too much for the emperor to look like he is really in a hurry. I actually came to this imperial study on a blind date." Murong Qingyi didn't know when he appeared by Bei Minghao's side. There was a playful twist in his words.
Bei Minghao glared at him coldly. Then he reluctantly followed. Murong Qingyi pursed his lips. Although it is a terrible thing to annoy my brother. But it's not his style to go and join in the fun. A cross-heart. Die and die. The big deal is to be demoted to the border to suppress bandits. So Murong Qingyi followed with a quick step.
Soon. Lunch was served.
The Emperor naturally sat on the throne. And the nobody sat on the left hand side of the Emperor. And Bei Minghao sat on his right hand. Next to Bei Minghao sitting. Naturally, I just came to see a lively Murong Qingyi. Although this Murong Qingyi is only the hidden guard of Bei Minghao. But this Murong family is the largest hidden guard family in the world. Not everyone can invite someone from the Murong family to be their own secret guard. And the reason why Murong Qingyi became the hidden guard of Bei Minghao. It's because the emperor was young. He once saved the wife of the head of the Murong family. That is, Murong Qingyi's mother. That's why we have this relationship today. To know. The ancestral precepts of the Murong family stipulate. A generation of heads of a family can only become the hidden guards of a king. Other words. In Murong Qingyi's generation. Their Murong family is the reserve army of the Northern Underworld. So this Murong Qingyi's status in the Northern Netherworld. and no less than any official of the dynasty. Naturally, I was able to sit at the same table with them.
"Come on. Cher. Eat more. Look at your little thin body." The Emperor looked at her with a distressed face and said.
"Yes." The beauty called Cher finally spoke. It's just one word though. But her voice was like the soft cry of a yellow warbler. Pleasant with delicateness.
The Emperor Taishang turned his gaze to the body of Bei Yinghao on the right." That's right. I forgot to introduce you. This is the eldest grandson of Su Taishi. SU Yingxue. She's a well-known talented woman in our Northern Netherworld. And it looks like a shy flower. How many nobles came to the door to ask for relatives. Just for the beautiful wife I wanted." The Emperor's meaning couldn't be more obvious.
And Bei Minghao slowly put down the chopsticks in his hand. Then he said unhurriedly: "Erchen didn't know that his father's hobby turned out to be a matchmaker."
"You." The Emperor Taishang stared at Bei Minghao with raised eyebrows. And that's not because of you stinky boy. It's almost 28 years old. It's been so long since I ascended the throne. There was not a single woman in the harem. Even the queen was never canonized. Are you going to leave us with no successor?"
"The minister has his own opinion on this matter. Don't bother you." Bei Minghao was unmoved. His eyes never stayed on Su Yingxue for half a moment.
"You have your own opinions. Wait until you have your own opinions. I'm afraid that you will also have no children under your knees. There is no successor and he has been removed from the throne." The Emperor was furious. He just couldn't figure it out. Why don't you let him marry a queen? Have an heir? How it feels like it's going to kill him.
"Then we'll have to see if they have what it takes." Bei Minghao said disdainfully.
"You, you, you. Why are you so stubborn? Isn't it just for you to set up a queen? Is it that hard?"
"The queen of the sons. The sons and daughters have to choose for themselves."
"Then you'd rather choose. Look at Cher. What's wrong. There are very few that can compare with it in the Northern Netherworld. What's more, she is still the grandson of the Taishi. In terms of status, this queen is also well deserved. What else are you not satisfied with?" The Emperor Taishang glared at Bei Minghao angrily. If it weren't for his body, his bones would still be quite tough. It is estimated that he has long been angry with him.
"Erchen doesn't like it." Bei Minghao simply omitted the nonsense. bluntly refused.
"No. I don't like it." The Emperor's teeth rattled. And Su Yingxue on the side heard that sentence after disliking. I was stunned at first. Then there was a hint of grievance on her pretty face. And tears began to roll in his eyes.
Brother. You're too direct, aren't you? It hurts people's hearts like this. Is it really good? Murong Qingyi on the side swallowed in some surprise. When receiving a warning gaze from Bei Minghao. Unconsciously lowered his head and began to chop rice.
"You don't even like a girl as outstanding as Cher. What do you like?" The emperor stomped his feet in a hurry. hated iron and looked at his son.
"Erchen has his own plans in his heart. Don't bother with your father." Bei Minghao doesn't plan to waste time by staying here any longer. He stood up and walked out the door.
"Stop." Smoke came out of the emperor's nose.
Wenyan. Bei Minghao, who was just about to step out of the door, really stopped. Just when everyone thought he had changed his mind. Bei Minghao said coldly: "In the future, my father should not do this kind of red-line thing. The son is afraid that his father will do it a few more times. I'm really going to get sick from my son." After saying this. Leave a room full of stunned people. Bei Minghao disappeared from everyone's sight.
Murong Qingyi came to his senses. The heroes who saw this play are gone. It didn't mean anything for him to stay. So just get ready to oil the soles of your feet. But he was caught by the emperor.
"Qingyi. Where are you going?"
"Uhhh Listening to the emperor's weird yin and yang voice. Murong Qingyi knew that he was finished. He turned around with a handsome little face. Said flatteringly: "Back to the emperor. Qingyi is already full. So."
"Come on, come on. It's okay to be full. Talk to Emperor Ben Tai for a few words." A wicked smile appeared on the face of the Emperor.
"Uh. No. No, I can't. The ancestors have words. The guards are not allowed to leave their master for half a step. So Qingyi has to follow the emperor." Murong Qingyi's scalp was numb. He didn't want to stay here.
"What else will happen to him in this palace. Come on, come on. Let's just talk a few words." The Emperor Taishang beckoned to Murong Qingyi.
Murong Qingyi slowly moved over in resignation.
"Do you say that Hao'er has a woman you like?" So many beauties can't look down on it. Then that's the only thing that makes sense.
"Ahh Not. Not really." Murong Qingyi said a little vaguely.
"Not really." The Emperor's eyes narrowed into a slit. It seems to be judging whether he is lying or not.
"Anti. Anyway as far as I know. Be. No, there is none." Murong Qingyi was sweating all over. How could it not be. But what could he say? He can tell the Emperor. Did his son fall in love with the princess of another country?
"Good. Then is he ......?" the emperor still wants to ask something. But he was interrupted by a sudden voice.
"Murong Qingyi. Get out of here. I have something for you to do." Bei Minghao's voice seemed so abrupt at this moment.
"Good, good. I'm going to get out of here." And Murong Qingyi was like a pardon. Rushed out of the side hall like a flyer. Only the Emperor Taishang, who was still half-open, and Su Yingxue, who had a complaining face, were left.
Mysterious place.
"Su Yingxue also failed." Qingrou looked unwilling at this time. I didn't expect this Bei Minghao to be so stubborn. So many beauties can't get into his eyes."
"I told you a long time ago. You have to start with Bei Minghao. I'm afraid it's not that easy. You don't believe it." Qin Yuxuan said coldly.
"Hmph. Luckily, I prepared with both hands. Our people have successfully married into the royal palace of the Northern Underworld. I'll see when the time comes. Two tigers fight. Who dies first?" A hint of murderous intent flashed in Qingrou's eyes.
"What about the Land of All Saints."
"Saint Lingxiao is the same as Bei Minghao. Not interested in women. It is said that it is because Saint Lingxiao had a woman he loved deeply. It's just that it suddenly disappeared for some reason. So we didn't start with the Holy Heavens. It's the same as the North Stygian. Placed our people next to a few uneasy princes in the Land of All Saints. Waiting for an opportunity to provoke."
"Good. As for the Nanshu Kingdom. Although the current emperor Nangong has won the hearts of the people. But he is suspicious by nature. It's not bold enough. As for Nangong Liye, the backbone of the Nanshu Kingdom, he has no intention of asking about the government. So you immediately go to Nanshu Kingdom. Kill Concubine Li and replace her." Qin Yuxuan said coldly.
And Qingrou was stunned at first. In the end, he laughed helplessly. Didn't expect. In order to complete his hegemony. She was destined to give everything.
