A Female King’s Love Story - Chapter 57

“Your majesty.” Xiyue followed closely behind him and shouted, “You’re not giving Prime Minister Luo any face at all in front of all these officials today. You’re not afraid of him …”

“What are you afraid of?” Qiao however, pursed his lips and slightly raised his cold eyes: “I am the Emperor of the Qiao Country. No matter how much authority he has, he is still an official!” “Today is just like killing a chicken to make an example of a monkey. Who asked Prime Minister Luo to step out and stand up for this bird, it just so happens to quell his arrogance?”

Xiyue looked into Qiao Qiao’s eyes and couldn’t help but shiver. It seemed that the Emperor really wasn’t planning on hiding her, but this was good as well. Let’s see who would underestimate the Emperor in the future.

“Then will the Regent really investigate the Xi Mansion for the Emperor?” Xiyue asked, worried.

“Not for my sake, but for his own. He will go.” Qiao once again smiled. She believed that she would surely be able to suppress this matter!

“Reporting to your majesty, there’s a woman at the entrance with a medallion on her waist seeking an audience with your majesty.” The rumored eunuch replied.

Qiao still looked at the identity token in the eunuch’s hand, then his face suddenly lit up.

“Quick, spread it!”

“Yes.” The eunuch withdrew.

“Qingwu is back!” Qiao Qiao said happily. She knew that this return of Qingwu would bring her quite a bit of shock.

Within the inner palace of the Dry and Clear Palace.

Qiao Qiao’s face was still filled with joy. He pulled up the kneeling Qingwu, then dismissed the servant girl by his side, leaving behind only Xiyue.

“Qingwu, there are no outsiders here, quickly tell me what news you found outside the palace.” Qiao Qiao asked urgently.

Back to the emperor, ever since this servant left the palace, she had been inquiring about the whereabouts of the rumors that originated from the emperor’s birth. When the emperor landed, there was an abnormal phenomenon, and it was said that two rainbow-colored phoenixes circled the palace for three days, and when it rained the day after tomorrow, the emperor had specially sought out the State Grandmaster to test the heavens. The State Grandmaster thought that the phoenix was a good omen, that the sky was a bad omen. Qingwu said simply.

“State Grandmaster?” “Where is the Imperial Adviser now?” Joe continued to ask.

“After returning to the Emperor, this servant found out about this matter and inquired about the whereabouts of the Imperial Advisor. However, I heard that the Imperial Advisor was passed down through the generations of cultivators and had the ability to predict the past and the future. However, this person has no fixed home, and has not been seen by anyone ever since the late Emperor passed away.” Qingwu replied.

“Since this rumor originated from the imperial palace and my father died from poison, it seems that only Imperial Advisors will be able to find out what happened that year.” Qiao Qiao sighed to himself. But where could he find an Imperial Advisor?

“Reporting to Your Majesty, your servant has already found out the truth about your message.” She cupped her hands together and said.

“Tell me, what happened to Yan Mo Chen’s family all those years ago!” Qiao once again tensed up. It seemed that Qingwu’s trip was worth it.

“Reporting to Your Majesty, the Duke of Regent’s grandfather was originally the founding general of the Qiao Nation, and had made impressive achievements on the battlefield. The Supreme Emperor personally bestowing the title of the only prince with another surname, this is an honor that occurs only once in a hundred years.

However, one day, for some reason, the Grand Emperor suddenly went into a rage and dismissed the Flame King from his position, chased him out of the capital, and ordered him to never enter the capital. On the night that the Flame King wanted to leave, the Regent was only six years old, the Yan family was exterminated, the Yan family was not spared, and it was the Old King who risked his life to protect the Regent King.

This servant has heard that before the Regent was six years old, he was also an innocent child. However, ever since his family was exterminated, no one has seen him smile. ” Qingwu slowly said.

Qiao Qiao was still lost in thought as he followed Qingwu’s words. He didn’t expect that Yan Mo Chen had suffered so much since he was young. It wasn’t easy for him to reach this stage by himself.

“In that case, who was the Yan Clan’s member back then?” Qiao Qiao asked with a trembling voice.

“It’s the Demon Palace!” Qingwu replied.

“Devil’s Palace?!” Qiao Qiao was still shocked. Although she already had the answer in her heart, when the truth was revealed, she could not help but be extremely shocked. “Why?”

The late emperor ascended to the throne and ordered a sealing of the news. Only when the Flame King’s family had left the capital and the late emperor loved his grandson did they stay behind, and the ministers who knew of this matter all returned home. The matter regarding the Yan Residence was resolved, and this servant had searched through the officials of the Yan Clan for a long time before finally finding out that the Demon Palace had annihilated the entire Yan Clan. Qingwu replied.

Qiao Qiao still nodded her head, Qingwu knew that all of this was not easy.

“Qingwu, you should first return to your room to rest. I’m sure you’ve been tired for the past few days.” Qiao Qiao continued to speak to Qingwu with concern.

“Servant Your Majesty, it is this servant’s responsibility to serve you.” With a solemn expression, Qingwu cupped her hands as she spoke.

“Alright, with these words of yours, I feel extremely gratified. Quickly go back and rest. I’ve already asked Xiyue to prepare a courtyard for you. There’s no need for you to return to your original house.” Qiao Qiao said with a smile.

“Thank you, your majesty. Your servant will take his leave.” Qingwu bowed and then turned to leave.

“I never thought that Yan Mo Chen would have such a painful past.” Qiao Qiao muttered to himself.

Xiao Yue, who was standing behind Qiao once again, could not help but nod her head.

“Xiyue, you can go back as well. I want to be by myself for a while.”

“It’s the emperor. Your servant takes her leave.” Xiyue slowly withdrew.

“Sigh.” A heavy sigh echoed throughout the entire palace. Qiao Qiao did not expect that a black-clothed figure would appear outside the palace with a faint smile on his face.
