Chapter 2 Never Fail
Downwards and backwards.
Empress Jiang Chengwan returned to the Zichen Hall with a worried face, then lowered her head and cautiously asked an old eunuch with a withered face behind her, "Wu Daban, does the Queen Mother have any instructions today?" ”
Regarding the emperor's question, Wu Zhongxian, the old eunuch who was called Wu Daban, but was actually the eyeliner used by the empress dowager to monitor the empress, didn't even raise his eyelids, and said expressionlessly: "The empress dowager has a word, please prepare the jade seal pattern method immediately, and after the Hanlin Academy compiles and drafts the holy decree, it will be stamped with a big seal, and the madman who dares to roar at the court today and has no respect for humility will be expelled from the court as soon as possible." ”
Hearing this, Jiang Chengwan, who was facing back to Wu Zhongxian, quietly flashed an imperceptible cold light in her eyes.
At this time, there was no cowardice and timidity on her face, as if the puppet emperor in front of her who completely succumbed to the queen mother's obscenity was not her.
While the lips and teeth collided, the voice was still full of cowardice that was difficult for others to guard against:
"I... I... I know, please wait a while for Wu Daban, and I will do it immediately. ”
Wu Zhongxian raised his eyes and said indifferently: "Please hurry up, Your Majesty, the old slave has other important things to do later." ”
Hearing these words that disregarded the emperor so much, Jiang Chengwan's little hand under the dragon's robe suddenly clenched suddenly, and his face was full of coldness.
She took a deep breath quietly, forcibly held back the killing intent in her heart, and then said softly:
"Well... Good. ”
With that, she returned to the dragon chair, picked up the jade seal from the table, and then closed her eyes, and said something in her mouth.
Wu Zhongxian's nostrils were facing the sky, and he stood in place without fear, waiting for the empress to prepare the jade seal pattern.
He didn't notice that every time Jiang Chengwan mobilized a trace of spiritual power to pour into the jade seal, a painful entanglement flashed in her eyes, and the hands holding the jade seal trembled slightly, as if what she was holding in her hands was not a jade seal, but a boulder as heavy as a thousand pounds.
Personally admitting Lu Chen's obviously fabricated guilt, and expelling this extremely valuable loyal minister from the court was undoubtedly a great torture for her.
However, there is nothing she can do to stop it all now.
At least not yet.
After a while, she put away her trembling hands, then raised her head and whispered to Wu Zhongxian, who was not far away, who gradually revealed impatience:
"Wu Daban, I'm ready."
"Hmm."
Wu Zhongxian answered unhurriedly, then walked to the table and waved his hand unceremoniously.
In the next second, lines of text appeared in an instant from the originally blank holy decree.
There is no doubt that the content of it is Lu Chen's culpability, and the disposal is to directly dismiss the official and exile him to Qiongzhou.
"Your Majesty, please."
Wu Zhongxian said expressionlessly.
Jiang Chengwan's shoulders trembled slightly, and then she lifted the jade seal and gently covered it on the holy decree.
Swish!
As soon as the big seal was stamped, the holy decree was directly taken away by Wu Zhongxian.
"If Your Majesty has no important orders, the old slave will retreat first."
"Hmm..."Jiang Chengwan said resignedly: "Wu Da accompany you to get busy, I don't have anything important." ”
Wu Zhongxian nodded naturally, as if it was a matter of course for the emperor to be so in awe of her, and then walked out of the Zichen Hall with such a loud voice, and before leaving, he also told the guards outside that he must do his duty and ensure that His Majesty is "thorough".
Syllable!
The moment the door of the Zichen Hall was closed, the original humble color on Jiang Chengwan's beautiful little face suddenly disappeared, there was no expression on his face, and the corners of his eyes were filled with a wisp of profundity that seemed to understand everything in the world.
She gathered her dragon robe, sat down on the dragon chair, and slowly closed her eyes.
In the next second, an incomparably mysterious special power slowly surged out of Jiang Chengwan's body.
Immediately after, the originally calm air around her suddenly shook, forming a faint air current, bringing up her long black hair, swaying back and forth with the twelve jade rays, making her look inexplicably exuding an unfathomable aura.
Then, she suddenly took a deep breath and said silently in her heart: "Brother Huang." ”
"The minister is here."
In just a moment, there was a response in her mind.
"What does Your Majesty command?"
For the voice in her mind that only she could hear, Jiang Chengwan's face was as usual, obviously this kind of exchange of ideas was used to her.
"Are you ready?"
"Back to Your Majesty, the 30,000 soldiers of the most elite Xuanwu Guard in the Cangming Realm are fully prepared and ready to fight at any time."
Speaking of this, the man who was called "Imperial Brother" by Jiang Chengwan paused for a moment, and then said:
"The Praetorian Guard in Beijing has been peaceful for a long time, the armament is relaxed, and it has been deeply affected by the chaos of the demon queen for six years, and the generals have little combat power, plus Your Majesty helps Xuanwuwei maintain the Holy Spirit Power, the Praetorian Guard is by no means an opponent of Xuanwuwei in a head-on battle, just wait for Your Majesty to build a great battle with the supreme holy power contained in the jade seal, and teleport Xuanwuwei into Beijing, the soldiers will be able to control Ziji City in the shortest possible time, capture and kill the demon, and help Your Majesty regain power and reorganize the world."
"Hmm."
Jiang Chengwan responded and said silently:
"At three o'clock in the afternoon tomorrow, it will be the once-in-a-decade Ziji Heaven, and at that time, you can use the extremely strong crape myrtle qi to start the Douzhuan Great Array, bother the imperial brother to prepare the Holy Spirit Technique in advance, and let the soldiers rest well tonight, recuperate, and prepare for war with all their might."
"Obey."
The man replied heavily.
"There's Brother Lao."
"Your Majesty is serious."
The man answered, and then suddenly smiled, and said in a rather emotional tone:
"Hehe, who would have thought that an inconspicuous emperor who was supported by the demon queen six years ago in order to facilitate control would be able to open the Holy Dao inheritance in the jade seal and become the third supreme in history who is qualified to command the Holy King."
Jiang Chengwan raised her eyebrows.
"Brother Huang, aren't you also the first royal family to be chosen by the legendary holy relic to become a holy king in thousands of years, and you are also the youngest holy king in history."
"Hahaha~" The man laughed heroically: "Your Majesty is laughing, the minister can't compare to Your Majesty." ”
After a pause, he sighed again and said, "Alas... It's a pity that now the Luojingshi people are prosperous, arrogant and extravagant, and the wind of loyalty is gradually declining, otherwise if anyone can be loyal to His Majesty before His Majesty takes control of the situation and reorganizes the situation......"
"Yes."
The empress's voice suddenly softened.
"Huh?"
There was a muffled sound with a slight stunnedness.
The Empress shook her head, not explaining anything.
After cutting off the sound transmission technique, she slowly walked to the window, looked at the eunuchs and palace maids who were in a hurry outside the window, and gradually appeared in her mind that Fang was in the court, the figure that stood up desperately for her, and faced the domineering Ling Tianfengwei of the Queen Mother alone.
Once she also had expectations and longings, looking forward to someone standing up for her and fighting the Queen Mother.
Even if she can't change anything, as long as she has this intention, she can feel the warmth of being lonely and helpless in this cold Purple Pole City.
She even secretly swore that as long as someone dared to stand up for her bravely when the Queen Mother was in power, if she could take power in the future, she would never lose up in this life no matter what.
As a result, six years passed, nothing changed, and gradually, her heart began to become cold.
However, just when she was about to completely abandon all illusions, take off the cowardly mask she had worn for six years, reveal the courage to look down on the world, and rule the world with the posture of a true emperor, there were loyal ministers in the court who once only existed in her fantasies.
Thinking of Lu Chen's death-defying appearance, Jiang Chengwan couldn't help but tremble in her heart, her little hand on the windowsill tightened slightly, and her eyes gradually became hazy.
"Your loyalty, I should remember it in my heart, and in this life, I will never let it down!"
