20 The Emperor's Night Edict Ling Dong Dance

Who knew that when the lantern was held at night, another holy decree came down, and the emperor wanted Ling Dongwu to enter the palace, as soon as Ling Dongwu heard this holy decree, he was immediately frightened, and Mu Zicheng also lost his composure, they all thought of the worst thing at the same time, the matter of Ling Dongwu's daughter was already known to everyone, and the emperor naturally knew,

They all know that the current emperor likes women, and since he ascended the throne, he has wantonly collected folk beauties and filled the harem.

Ling Dongwu panicked, Mu Zicheng stretched out his hand and held her hand,

No matter how scared you are, entering the palace is an unavoidable thing,

Mu Zicheng was not worried that Ling Dongwu would enter the palace alone, and rode a horse with her to the outside of the palace, and as soon as the two arrived at the palace gate, they had already seen the internal officials and marquis on the side from a distance, and said loudly: "There is holy will,"

The two hurriedly got off their horses and knelt down to listen to the order: "According to the emperor's instructions, Miss Ling will enter the palace in a sedan chair,"

Mu Zicheng listened to the holy decree announced by the internal official, breathed heavily, and his pupils contracted slightly, the emperor was treating Ling Dongwu as a woman, so what was he going to do next, when he looked up at Ling Dongwu again, he saw that Ling Dongwu's face was as white as paper, and there was no blood on her lips, and the cloak she was wearing was trembling,

"Dong'er," Mu Zicheng saw that Ling Dongwu was so afraid, his heart ached, and he stepped forward to hold Ling Dongwu's cold cold, "Dong'er, don't be afraid, I will wait for you here all the time, if you don't come out after half an hour, I will rush in to save you,"

Ling Dongwu only felt as if Mount Tai was overwhelmed, and still smiled at Mu Zicheng soothingly: "No, Brother Zicheng, you are waiting for me here, don't worry, I must have a way to deal with him, even if he messes around, I will have a way to get out of it safely, but you must promise me that you can't mess around,"

Mu Zicheng nodded suspiciously, and watched Ling Dongwu get into the sedan chair with the internal official,

The internal official led the sedan chair that Ling Dongwu was riding through the mezzanine, and then through the heavenly street, and walked for a long time, this is the first time Ling Dongwu entered the palace, she opened the curtain of the sedan chair, looked carefully at the passing road, entered the Zhaode Gate, raised her eyes to see the brilliant golden eaves, and went away continuously, through the straight heavenly street, the long palace wall was black and heavy, and it was pressed down layer by layer, so that she was breathless, almost suffocated,

Only she knows that now she is also a fish on the board, there is nothing she can do, the reason why she said that is just to appease Mu Zicheng, she doesn't want him to risk death because of herself, and the only way she can think of is the bow and crossbow on her wrist, the other weapons on her body, and the swords were confiscated as soon as she entered the palace gate, but the small bow and crossbow in her hand was not discovered, and at the most critical time, she could use it to kill people, or she could use it to commit suicide,

The sedan chair finally stopped in front of a palace, and the internal official laughed, his eyes narrowed into a slit, his face was full of joy, and he said in a shrieked voice: "Please Miss Ling enter, Long Live Lord is already inside,"

Ling Dongwu looked around, saw that the flowers and trees here were sparse, the birds were crying and the flowers were idle, it was very quiet, not far away was the red palace wall, but there was no sound in the four places, it turned out that this was already the emperor's harem, Ling Dong danced on the white marble steps, and a pair of female officials smiled and greeted her, Qi Shi turned around and led her into the palace,

The hall is very quiet, the gold bricks are covered with a thick blanket, the soft gold crown of the female official standing has wings trembling, the emperor is already sitting at the table, wearing a yellow robe, wearing a crown, his face is handsome, elegant and chic, but between his eyebrows, because of the long-term absurdity and obscenity, revealing a kind of yin aura that is very incongruous with his face, he smiled and beckoned to Ling Dongwu, "Come and sit down, Miss Ling," Ling Dongwu walked to the table hard,

There are all kinds of dried fruits, candied fruits, fine snacks on the table, a table of exquisite food, the emperor is holding a wine glass in his hand, and the sleeves embroidered with gold dragon patterns slide down, he looks at Ling Dongwu with a smile, only to see her face charming, eyebrows and eyes are full of dripping, and her heart is fluttering, but she has never seen such a gorgeous smile in her life, and she secretly scolds herself in her heart for being stupid, such a beautiful woman, why has he never seen that she is a woman, he immediately wanted to hold Ling Dongwu's hand: "Miss Ling, come, sit down with me,"

Ling Dongwu dodged back slightly, tugging at the corners of his mouth and smiling, "Your Majesty, the last general should still stand and speak,"

The emperor saw that Ling Dongwu's cheeks were delicate, as if they were smeared with a layer of brilliance in the candlelight, and the whole person was like a flower that bloomed just right, which was a completely different type from those warblers and warblers in the harem, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and suddenly felt that even the three thousand beauties in the palace were not as good as Ling Dongwu's color, and his voice was even more tender: "Miss Ling, please forgive me for being clumsy, I have never seen that you are a woman, these days have made you suffer, and you are mixed with those soldiers all day long, it is really difficult for you, now I know that you are a woman, That's going to be easy, and I must let you live a prosperous and prosperous life from now on,"

Ling Dongwu looked at the emperor's handsome face that resembled Xia Wenxuan, and sneered in his heart, sure enough, it was Jin Yu who was ruined on the outside, but it was a pity that such a good skin was a waste, but he was a waste.

"Emperor, the last general has witnessed the rampant domineering of the Northern Desert Army many times, and is determined to fight for the safety of the people of Nanzhao, so the last general feels that it is better to stay in the army and show his life's will,"

The emperor didn't care about what Ling Dongwu said, stood up, walked to her side, and took Ling Dongwu's hand, only to feel that Ling Dongwu's little hand in his palm was like congealed fat, smooth and delicate, he was even more confused, and muttered: "Miss Ling, sit down,"

Ling Dongwu hurriedly withdrew his hand and arched his hand: "The last general doesn't dare," Ling Dongwu has been calling himself the last general in front of the emperor, just to remind the emperor that he is his courtier, but seeing that the emperor is now looking like a ** attacker, he doesn't take his title to heart at all,

Although Emperor Nanzhao can't govern the country and lead the troops, but he is a master on the Fengyue field, he gestured with his eyes, and everyone who was waiting in the house quietly retreated, only he and Ling Dongwu were left in the house, Ling Dongwu saw that the people in the house were going out, knowing that things were going to be bad, she secretly looked at the door of a room, and it was also closed, she was flustered for a while, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, it's getting late, and the last general has retired,"

The emperor took Ling Dongwu's hand again, only to feel that the tentacles were soft and greasy, as if there were no bones, and said softly: "Miss Ling, there is a sentence, I want to say to you today, I am very ......"

Ling Dongwu was held tightly by him this time, no matter what, he couldn't break free, he was anxious, thinking about you, don't say it, if you say the next words, what should I do,

At this time, I suddenly heard Xia Wenxuan's shout from outside the hall, "Brother Huang, Weichen has an urgent matter to report,"

"Lord, the emperor has something important to do now, do you have something to do tomorrow," the eunuch's voice came in a low voice, already with a hint of panic and anxiety,

"Brother Huang, Weichen has something important to report," Xia Wenxuan's voice was a little louder, and he was much less calm than usual, revealing a trace of anxiety, as if he couldn't wait for the eunuch to report, and he was about to break in.

The emperor's face showed obvious displeasure, let go of the hand that was holding Ling Dongwu, and said in a cold voice, "Come in,"

The door of the hall was pushed open all of a sudden, and the cold wind outside also blew in, causing the candle flame to shake for a while, Xia Wenxuan immediately glanced at Ling Dongwu after entering the house, and saw that she looked a little uneasy, but fortunately she was standing there neatly dressed, he was obviously relieved,

Ling Dongwu knew that Xia Wenxuan must have heard that he was summoned to the palace by the emperor at night, and guessed the emperor's intentions, so he came to save himself, since he was rescued by Xia Wenxuan in the desert, she felt that he was wise and benevolent at first, and she had the idea of "death for the confidant" in her heart, and followed him with Mu Zicheng at the end of her life, but these days, what she saw and heard about Xia Wenxuan made her good impression of Xia Wenxuan quietly disintegrate little by little,

Seeing that he could still save himself like this tonight, Ling Dongwu's upright heart softened again, and he was full of satisfaction with Xia Wenxuan's well,

Xia Wenxuan was just about to speak, "There are assassins," the eunuch's screams suddenly came from outside the door, and then he heard a loud noise from the garden outside, as if someone was fighting there,

Only a few voices were heard coming from the left, middle and right directions, and then a series of footsteps, and the guards in armor rushed over, "Come on, protect the emperor," Xia Wenxuan shouted, standing beside the emperor, Ling Dongwu thought about it, such a chaotic juncture, wouldn't it be a good time from God, at this time, if you don't leave, she said to the emperor: "The last general will go outside to see what the situation is," and hurriedly rushed out,

As soon as Ling Dongwu ran out of this room, he immediately felt a burst of relief, after taking two deep breaths, he identified the direction, pretended to run in the direction of shouting with everyone, and ran halfway, only heard a few "whoosh" sounds, and a few hidden weapons hit the person in front, only to hear a low scream from the guards in front, and then a loud 'boom', white smoke came out, and it was impossible to tell which one was an assassin and which one was a guard,

The white smoke dissipated, Ling Dongwu followed the guards to look around, only to see a few guards who fell to the ground, and did not find the body of an assassin, on the body of the guards who fell to the ground, Ling Dongwu looked at the dark dart and was stunned for a moment, Yi Zhikuo, this difficult demon, how did he enter the palace,

Ling Dongwu was frightened, anxious and afraid, looking around, seeing that there was no trace of Yi Zhikuo, she put her mind at ease and followed everyone back to the emperor's bedroom, but this time she cleverly hid in the middle of everyone and did not enter the house.

After such a fuss, it was already the middle of the night, the emperor looked panicked, drank a sip of shocked tea, and had no interest, waved his hand, and let everyone retreat,

Ling Dongwu and Xia Wenxuan walked side by side outside the palace gate, Ling Dongwu looked at Xia Wenxuan and smiled, and said sincerely: "Lord, thank you for saving me,"
