The great wise man pondered for a moment, and finally said, "Let her in!" Anyway, after all, she is still the queen of the empire, and her status is higher than ours after all, and now the situation is delicate, if she makes too much trouble with the other party, it will be bad after all! ”

"It's nothing to let her in," Fang Mengyan said indifferently, "But we have to carry out a comprehensive inspection of them, God knows if she still has those concubines, is she secretly preparing some dirty and shameless means?" ”

Feng Lanxi looked at her, sighed in her heart, and said in her mouth: "Okay then!" You're in charge of that! ”

Fang Mengyan's face was happy, and she immediately agreed.

The emperor's camp returned to the imperial capital, and according to the previous practice, the empress and civil and military ministers who stayed in the imperial capital must be greeted with the most solemn etiquette. It's just that this is an extraordinary time, Feng Lanxi didn't officially issue an announcement at all out of prudence, and those officials and nobles who were hesitating were happy to pretend to be confused!

Of course, for the few people who can really be trusted, Feng Lanxi has still contacted them privately, but these people no longer include the current Empress Xiao, and she was able to learn the news, and she still relied on the family's eyeliner around the Tianhua Star Domain to do so.

Bing Xue is smart, she naturally understands that because of the actions of the people in the family during this period of time, Zhong Qianying and Luo Qiyue have been estranged from her, except for the routine greetings every morning, the two daughters basically no longer interact with her, and even the major event of dispatching the Praetorian Guard to welcome His Majesty back to the dynasty this time was not informed to her, and the decision of Feng Lanxi and the others was also unexpectedly consistent!

Looking at this posture, the other party basically excluded her from this decision-making circle! The dignified Empress of the Empire, the biological mother of the first heir, is now in such an embarrassing situation, which really makes her a little helpless! But what can she do? On one side is her own family, and on the other side is her own majesty, no matter who she hurts, it is not what she wants to see!

Perhaps, after meeting the great wise man, find a way to talk to her alone, anyway, everyone serves the same man, and the interests of each other should be the same, and the position should naturally be the same!

Therefore, she took Yun Qixuan and the concubines who stayed in the imperial palace and set off together.

"Is there a response over there?" In the main control room of the ship, Xiao Muhan on the phoenix seat hugged the little princess and asked the female officer next to her with some trepidation.

"Back to Her Majesty, Concubine Feng has already agreed, but ......" The female official hesitated for a moment before saying:

"They said that this is an extraordinary time, in order to prevent people with bad intentions from secretly sabotaging, so they can only let the queen's ship enter the palace!"

Xiao Wenyue, who was standing beside her, suddenly became angry and scolded angrily: "How can this really be true? Her Royal Highness the Empress and Princess of the Empire are here, and they just came to see them, and they dare to be so arrogant and rude, disregarding the laws of the Empire! Are they trying to ......?"

"Okay, can you say a few words?" Xiao Muhan glanced at her, turned to the female official and said:

"Go and tell them that as long as they can see Your Majesty, no matter what they ask this palace to do!"

……

The huge ship landed smoothly in the mooring base in the palace, Xiao Muhan and the others walked out of the hatch, and saw a large number of heavily armed palace guards silently rushing over to surround the ship, and Fang Mengyan, who was the leader, looked at her and the many imperial concubines behind her expressionlessly, looking unkind. Xiao Wenyue's face changed slightly, and she stepped forward and pulled the little princess over to protect her in her arms.

Xiao Muhan raised her eyebrows and asked calmly, "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, what are you going to do here?" ”

"It's just a routine check, don't mind, Sister Queen!" She replied calmly, took out a delicate and small multi-functional spatial transmission scanner, and unceremoniously aimed at Xiao Muhan.

Suddenly, the faces of all the concubines led by the queen became a little unnatural, this kind of detection instrument that claims to be able to ignore all energy shielding is generally used to screen high-risk items and track down important criminals, Fang Mengyan used this thing on the imperial queen, and it can be said to be extremely rude and offensive in ordinary times!

Xiao Wenyue said angrily: "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, are you going too far?" Standing in front of you is the Empress and the first heir to the throne of the Empire! Are you doing this clearly not taking the laws of the empire into account? ”

"Who are you?" Fang Mengyan glanced at her and asked disapplaudedly.

She had a cold face and replied firmly: "Xiao Wenyue, the fifth heir of the Xiao family, the queen's cousin!" How? What are your thoughts? ”

Fang Mengyan said lightly: "It turns out that she is just a woman who doesn't even have a noble title!" You are neither an imperial concubine, nor an important minister of the empire, nor any position in the palace or in the court, and even in your own family, you are just an ordinary heir at the bottom of the ranks! I'm talking to the Queen, when will it be your turn to interject? ”

Xiao Wenyue's face suddenly turned red, gritted her teeth and said angrily: "You are just a princess of the previous dynasty, your father and your sister are gone, what are you?" ”

"My brother is the Emperor, the Emperor of the Starlight Empire!" Fang Mengyan raised her head slightly and glanced at her disdainfully:

"Miss Xiao Wenyue, this is the Imperial Palace, not your Xiao family's private domain! Don't think that if Your Majesty is trapped, this empire will become your family as a matter of course! ”

The queen's face was gloomy, Fang Mengyan seemed to be quarreling with her sister, but in fact, she was just venting her dissatisfaction with some of the Xiao family's recent actions! I'm afraid it's not just her, all the concubines and civil and military officials in the palace have this opinion.

Behind him, the imperial concubines who stayed in the imperial palace looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

"Enough! Is there any end to it? Xiao Muhan shouted angrily and stopped the quarrel between the two women.

Then, she patiently said to Fang Mengyan: "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, due to well-known reasons, some things recently may be a misunderstanding formed by poor communication between each other!" ”

"So now, this palace hopes to have a good talk with Concubine Feng and Marshal Yang Wentao, no matter what, Your Majesty is the hope of the empire, and it is also our lifelong reliance, and we must not afford to lose! This palace thinks that there should be no estrangement between us! What do you think? ”

Fang Mengyan looked at her a few times, and finally nodded: "Okay then!" Marshal, they've been waiting for a long time! ”

……

In the Secret Temple.

Xiao Muhan and the imperial concubines looked at the pitch-black demon coffin located in the center of the big array, their faces were pale, and they were speechless for a long time.

The large array was already in full operation, and dozens of circles of soft halo of white and rich life breath emanated from the tall crystal platform, wrapping the pitch-black demon coffin layer by layer, slowly but resolutely dissipating the weird and domineering energy above, neutralizing and melting its dead qi!

It's just that the energy on the demon coffin is extremely tough and abundant, and the black cloud qi is constantly neutralized and consumed by the ru white halo, but more black cloud qi is still derived from the strange patterns on the surface of the demon coffin, resisting the erosion and assimilation of the white halo!

The energy of the two different attributes had been stalemate for nearly a month, and every two days, Yun Yingxue would instruct the creators to replace all the high-purity crystals and jade talismans embedded in the formation diagram to ensure the normal operation of the large array.

Each crystal used in the Great Array was a treasure that could be used as the energy core of a six-star ability equipment, and now thousands of pieces were consumed every two days, and with the replacement of other materials, the overall consumption had reached an extremely staggering number.

But despite the fact that so many days have passed, although the power of the demon coffin has decreased, there is still no sign of energy exhaustion! Originally, according to common sense, the dark energy lost by these Heavenly Demon Coffins was already equivalent to all the energy essence contained in at least twenty artifacts!

"How long will Your Majesty have to be trapped inside before he can really get out?" After being silent for a long time, Xiao Muhan finally asked.

Feng Lanxi looked at her expression and replied calmly, "Maybe it's tomorrow, maybe a month later, or even three or five months!" ”

"What? Unexpectedly...... It takes so long? Xiao Muhan bit her lower lip and asked:

"Isn't there a faster way to use it?"

The great wise man shook his head slightly: "Not yet, of course, we are researching, I hope there will be a breakthrough!" ”

"What do you need me to do?" She asked again.

Feng Lanxi didn't answer, but asked her rhetorically, "What do you think you should do now?" Your Majesty, the Queen! ”

Xiao Muhan's face became more and more pale, he bit his lower lip stubbornly, looked at the little princess in his arms, and then looked at the demon coffin in the big array. It seems that he is going through a very fierce struggle inside.

The great wise man did not rush, but waited patiently.

Fang Mengyan quietly had two more phantom war puppet beads in her palm, and communicated with Zhong Xuanying with mental fluctuations: "Do you want to take this opportunity to ......?"

Zhong Xuanying thought for a few seconds and shook her head slightly: "No, the consequences of doing this are too serious, don't be impulsive." ”

Fang Mengyan snorted unwillingly and gave up her plan to make a move.

Xiao Muhan was indeed very conflicted in her heart, of course she understood that Yun Haoyu's safety was the first thing she needed to consider, as the queen of the empire, her life and death honor and disgrace had long been tied to her man, and now that the situation in the imperial capital was sinister, her choice did not need to hesitate.

If Your Majesty can get out of trouble in time, it will naturally be the best! She didn't have to worry about it anymore.

However, once His Majesty really falls, then the problem in front of her is much more complicated, although the little princess is the first heir, this big position should be taken over by her, but whether she can get her wish, I'm afraid only God knows!

So she must do it as soon as possible now, take precautions, and pave the way for the little princess to ascend to the throne smoothly! So she had to rely on the power of the people in her family, and she could only selectively ignore some of their lawless behavior, but such behavior seemed to outsiders to be just a despicable act of rushing to seize power.

She knew it in her own heart, but what could she do if she didn't? If the little princess can't compete for that position, then no matter who the new emperor is, the Xiao family will inevitably face the fate of raiding the family and exterminating the clan! The fate of her and the little princess is naturally extremely miserable!

"I will use all the resources at hand to help our Majesty get out of the shackles as soon as possible!" After thinking about it for a long time, Xiao Muhan finally said firmly:

"In any case, Your Majesty is the foundation of the Empire! Only Your Majesty can neatly clean up the current situation in the imperial capital, so our purpose is the same! Isn't it? ”
