Chapter 123: Half-Human, Half-Demon
Concubine Yi said, deliberately pretending to be jealous: "The concubine has heard that with the former identity of the queen's mother, it is not worthy of you, at most you can only be a side concubine, but the emperor would rather not take the throne and marry her as a concubine, which shows how much the emperor cares about the queen." ”
"The concubine can't be compared!" After Concubine Yi finished speaking, she also squeezed out two tears.
The emperor was very distressed, and hurriedly comforted her: "I met the empress when I was young, at that time, people were young and impulsive, and they could do whatever it took for a woman, as for now...... I am the Ninety-Five Supreme, and the rules left by my ancestors have to be abided. ”
"The emperor's words are wrong, the rules left by the ancestors may not all be right, the emperor, you are now the ninety-five supreme, naturally you have the final say." Yi Guifei hurriedly said.
If she can become the queen and her son becomes the crown prince again, then their mother and son will be better able to control the entire Great Yan Dynasty.
At that time, she will do whatever she wants, and no one in this world can stop her.
Whether it is the Great Yan Dynasty or the Lonely Abyss Kingdom, it will become her bag.
Whether it is a human or a demon, they must prostrate at her feet and be obedient.
"The queen passed away not long ago, next year...... Next year, I will discuss this matter with those princes of the Zongren Mansion, you can rest assured...... In my lifetime, I will definitely make you queen. The Emperor laughed.
"Thank you to the emperor, the concubines know that the emperor is the best for the concubines." Concubine Yi hurriedly leaned on the emperor's arms and coquettishly.
In fact, she didn't want to touch the emperor at all.
When people get old, their physical bodies slowly go downhill, and there will always be a smell on their bodies.
Especially a special existence like her, who is half human and half demon, has a very sensitive sense of smell, and the smell on the emperor's body really makes her disgusting.
The two of them were tired for a while, and then they heard that Qi Xuan was back.
"Emperor Qi, concubine Niangniang, the lord of Shun'an is back, waiting outside to say hello to the emperor and Niangniang." The palace maid stepped forward and said.
"Let her in." Concubine Yi hurriedly got up and said.
A moment later, Qi Xuan came in surrounded by several palace maids.
"Xuan'er greets the emperor's grandfather and grandmother." Qi Xuan stepped forward and saluted, with a smile on her face.
"Where did Xuan'er go to play in the afternoon? Smiling so happily made Hongu very curious. Yi Guifei smiled and spoke.
"If you go back to your grandmother, Xuan'er just went out for a walk casually, and came back after a circle in the imperial garden." Qi Xuan hurriedly replied.
Concubine Yi didn't believe it when she heard this, but because the emperor was here, she didn't ask much.
"It's getting late, you go and rest." Yi Guifei said softly.
"Yes!" Qi Xuan bowed her head slightly.
"Xuan'er, you have to remember your grandmother's kindness to you and be filial to her." The emperor frowned slightly: "If she hadn't interceded for you this time, I would have punished you well, even if you have been passed on to the eighth child, you are still the biological daughter of the ninth child, and you are not allowed to be unreasonable to your biological father." ”
"Xuan'er remembers, thank you for the teachings of the emperor's grandfather!" Qi Xuan didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of the emperor, and nodded obediently.
"Go ahead!" The emperor waved.
Qi Xuan blessed her body and retired with a few palace maids.
"Your Majesty, Xuan'er is still young after all, don't be too harsh on her, besides...... It was Lao Jiu who didn't listen to the emperor's words, so he ended up in the point where his wife was separated like this, he would rather protect the evil seed of the abolished prince, rather than the emperor's father, not his own princess and daughter, according to the concubines, he is not filial to the first, and he does not blame Xuan'er for not recognizing him. ”
The emperor's face was a little unsightly when he heard this.
Concubine Yi didn't know if he complained that he was talking badly, or if he was getting more and more annoying to Qi Jiu.
However, she didn't dare to provoke the emperor at this time, so she hurriedly ordered someone to prepare hot water and personally serve the emperor to freshen up.
After waiting for the emperor, Concubine Yi was also a little tired, and just closed her eyes, but the emperor's voice came from her ears.
"Why are you protecting that Xie Peng from the Cloud Palace?"
Concubine Yi was a little annoyed, but she still relied on her temperament to reply: "The concubine is not protecting him, but this Xie Peng is still useful, the ten major gates have existed much longer than our Dayan Dynasty, and they help each other, and they move the whole body, even if that Xie Peng really uses some evil arts to practice, he is forced to be helpless." ”
Concubine Yi said, turned around the emperor's waist, and said softly: "The concubine heard that if there is a lack of spiritual energy today, it is not easy for Taoist priests to practice, and because of this, some people have taken a detour, but ...... As long as we are not a big traitor, we can actually turn a blind eye, after all...... The combined power of the ten major gates should not be underestimated, so we don't need to worry about them. ”
"Once some rules are broken, something can happen." The Emperor frowned.
If it weren't for Yi Guifei's intercession for Yunxiao Palace and Xie Peng this time, he would not only have sent the master of Xuantian Temple, but would definitely send all the other principals of the Nine Great Dao Gate to Yunxiao Palace to check on him.
"Don't worry, the emperor, if something really happens, you can send an army to suppress all the ten major gates, or ask for help from Taiyimen, they can't afford to turn over any storms, just keep Xie Peng first, the concubine is still useful." Yi Guifei said with a smile.
"What good can he do?" The Emperor asked in a deep voice.
Concubine Yi knew that he was unhappy, and hurriedly said: "Although this Xie Peng's strength is not the strongest, his alchemy skills are stronger than those other masters, and the emperor can keep him and make alchemy for us." ”
"Speaking of pills, when will your brother be able to deliver the longevity-prolonging pills I said earlier?" The emperor has been looking forward to it for a long time, if it drags on like this, when will he get the elixir?
Concubine Yi was stunned when she heard this, and then smiled: "My eldest brother said that the pill needs a lot of natural materials and earthly treasures, and it ...... The quality requirements for the treasures of heaven and earth are very high, the Zhu Guo and Ziyun Beads they found before are not big enough, and the aura contained in them is insufficient, it is difficult to become a Dan, and they need to continue to look for it, and the concubines also sent people to find those famous mountains and rivers in our Dayan Dynasty, and they should be able to do it next year. ”
"I promised you before that I would make the eighth prince the prince, but the premise is that ...... That elixir must be there. The emperor said and smiled: "You know, among the many princes, the eighth is not outstanding, if it weren't for your sake, if it weren't for the elixir, I wouldn't have set him up." ”
After hearing his words, Concubine Yi was very disdainful in her heart, but she still smiled and said, "Please rest assured, the emperor will send someone to urge." ”
When the emperor heard this, he was about to close his eyes, and then he heard Concubine Yi say, "By the way, the emperor...... The concubine heard that you promised King Duan to pass the throne to Qi Chengshuo? ”
"Yes!" The emperor nodded: "King Duan is the brother of my mother's compatriots, and when he was young, he also fought in all directions, and made great contributions, I don't plan to demote the knighthood, and directly let Chengshuo inherit the throne of the prince." ”
