Smiling Phoenix Overwhelms the World - C328
When he was about to leave, Wind Blade couldn’t help but ask.
“Today is the day of Shen Hansheng’s Ascension Ceremony. Tomorrow, His Royal Highness will raise his arms and rebel against the Yellow Dragon.” After throwing down those words, Feng Dao immediately opened the door. As the door closed, he heard a “thank you” sound coming from Xia Hou Yu’s mouth. After a moment of shock, Feng Dao quietly closed the door and left.
The next morning, the hot topic of discussion in the throne room was that Shen Hanxin occupied the border and colluded with Zhou Chuxiong to raise troops and raise rebels. On the Dragon Throne, Shen Hansheng had never expected to let Shen Hanxin be the first to reach the throne. Now, Shen Hanxin was aiming at him for disobeying the rules and seizing the throne, while keeping his Imperial Father under house arrest, an outrageous act. Before even entering the Imperial City, there was simply no other way to know the truth other than listening to hearsay. Moreover, the first impression was that Shen Han Xin had done a lot of work to ‘advertise’ for him, and with the support of Zhou Chuxiong, a highly respected person, they naturally believed in the truth.
“Your majesty, Shen Hanxin’s wolf ambition is obvious and obvious. Since he’s raising his troops to rebel, this old official believes that the most urgent task is to dispatch troops to kill him, so as to eliminate any future troubles!” Wang Yi spoke straightforwardly, his eyes filled with a cold light.
“Your majesty, as the commander of the three armies, this old official naturally won’t let you go. This old official will definitely kill all the traitors and robbers in this expedition!” In return for the Emperor’s kindness! ” Dan Long had already predicted this day would come when Shen Hansheng had conferred him the title of commander of the three armies.
“Good!” We will follow your wishes! I have also decided that I will personally come to the battlefield and cheer for the warriors of the three armies! ” Shen Hansheng’s gaze turned solemn as he spoke coldly. He had to accomplish something when he ascended to the throne, especially in the confrontation with Shen Han. He had to be extra careful.
Coming down from the throne room, Shen Hansheng called for Wang Yi in the imperial study.
“Based on your understanding of Zhou Chuxiong, is it his idea for Shen Hanxin to send out troops so quickly?” Judging by the time, Shen Hanxin would not be able to act so quickly even if he wanted to raise his troops against him. He needed to have a thorough plan and analysis of the situation, and he had just come up with a plan with Wang Yi, yet Shen Hanxin had beaten his to it.
“This old official thinks that there is some trick to this, according to my understanding of Zhou Chuxiong, he would not act rashly without any preparation, and Shen Hanxin can only rely on Zhou Chuxiong, so this matter must be the intention of Zhou Chuxiong!” But why was he moving so fast? Could it be that he knows our plans? ” Wang Yi calmly analyzed and was at a loss.
“No!” This is something only you and I know. It’s impossible for the news to reach his ears! Forget it, since we’ve lost the upper hand, we can only face it head on. This time, I will be going with the army to produce a film, and you will have to take full responsibility for the matters of the imperial government. Thank you for your hard work! ” Shen Hansheng’s face was calm as he spoke sincerely. Hearing this, Wang Yi fell to his knees.
“Your majesty the emperor is too serious. This old subject is duty-bound to serve the emperor!” A sonorous and forceful voice echoed. Shen Hansheng nodded his head slightly. To be able to successfully ascend to the throne, Wang Yigao’s contributions must have been great along the way.
After what had happened yesterday, he did not know how to face Duan Muyan. However, tomorrow, he would have to set off with the army, and if he did not say something, he would have to wait until the end of the war. He truly could not afford to wait.
Just as Shen Hansheng was hesitating, Duan Moyan pulled open the door from the inside. The first thing that entered his sight was Shen Hansheng’s slightly embarrassed face. Duan Moyan did not have much of an expression on his face as she simply parted her lips.
“Is the Emperor looking for Meng Yan?” Shen Hansheng nodded his head upon hearing Zhang Xuan’s words, and his eyes subconsciously shot a glance at the room. Duan Mu Yan naturally understood his intentions, and promptly turned to the side, gesturing for Shen Han Sheng to enter.
“I wonder what is the emperor looking for Meng Yan for?” After closing the door, Duan Muyan turned and faced Shen Hansheng, yet she didn’t take a step forward. In her opinion, maintaining a distance was extremely important to her.
“Tomorrow, I will go to the battlefield with General Dan Long to fight against Shen Han Xin. I don’t know how long this battle will last, but I’ve come to bid you farewell.” Her voice was clear and melodious, her voice filled with an unwillingness to part. Shen Hansheng stared emotionlessly at Duan Moyan, his eyes shining with a resplendent light.
“Then, Meng Yan offers her best wishes to the Emperor.” Without showing any expression, Duan Mu Yan calmly spoke. However, her heart was already surging like an unstoppable wave.
“You … You have nothing to say to me? ” A hint of disappointment flashed across Shen Hansheng’s eyes.
“What does the Emperor want to hear?” Shen Hansheng was speechless. That’s right, after what happened yesterday, he was still yearning for his to say anything to him.
“I was being rude yesterday. I swear that I will not cross the line without your permission from now on!” But… “I hope to return once more. You can give me a chance to be my empress …” Shen Han Sheng gazed at Duan Mu Yan with anticipation, his heart feeling increasingly perturbed. After a long moment of silence, Duan Mu Yan finally spoke up.
“If the Emperor is victorious, Meng Yan will do as you wish and become the Empress of the Southern Yue …” Duan Mu Yan had given Shen Han Sheng hope. With this hope, Shen Han Sheng had not given up until he was heavily injured, but in the end, what he got in return was a heart-tearing and lung-splitting despair!
“You … You really agreed to it? ” At this moment, Shen Hansheng suddenly stood up, his handsome face blossoming into a naive smile akin to a child. That smile reached the depths of his heart. Looking at Shen Hansheng’s innocent smile, Duan Mu Yan suddenly felt sarcastic. Could it be that there was no shadow in Shen Hansheng’s heart? After killing his own brother, Shen Hansheng was still hoping that he would fall in love with him? This was the biggest joke in the world!
“As long as the Emperor can return alive!” Duan Mu Yan replied with determination once again. It was impossible to describe the joy in Shen Hansheng’s heart. At this moment, he was so overjoyed that he didn’t notice the coldness in Duan Mu Yan’s eyes at all.
“Don’t worry, I promise you that I will come back as soon as possible to meet you!” Shen Hansheng was so excited that he could no longer control himself. The corners of his lips curled up into a smile as he left the room.
In the morning of the next day, the entire imperial city was filled with citizens who wanted to have a look at the dragon’s face. On both sides of the streets, there was an extremely crowded crowd, and among the crowd, there was a figure hiding in the crowd with a white veil covering his face and the woman dressed as a maid next to him also covered her face with a white veil.
“Miss … Shall we go back? ” Xing’er looked around warily, her heart filled with worry.
“I won’t go back without him!” Qing Que’s eyes turned cold as she stared at the direction of the palace door. Not long after, a grand group of people appeared in the north, led by a single dragon, dressed in a military uniform, with a blood-red thousand li horse and a heavenly halberd behind it, adding to its majesty. Behind the dragon, a few of the vanguards were fighting for power, as though they were determined to win the battle, and what caught their attention was the man Qing Que’s hatred and love, the man in the red thousand li horse, dressed in a golden battle robe, her eyes were piercing, his hair was black, his head was covered with a purple crown, and her eyes were sharp like a blade.
The moment Shen Hansheng appeared, the entire crowd kneeled to the ground and kowtowed reverently. If it weren’t for Xing’er pulling him, Qing Que would have been frozen in place, and when she realized that she had lost control of herself, Qing Que would have bent down as well. However, her eyes never left Shen Hansheng’s face. Shen Hanshi, I, Qing Que, am acting for you. Have you never been moved by my words before? What kind of ruthlessness do you have for you to be so unmoved by me and actually chase me out of the palace?! Do you think that in your heart, I don’t even have the qualifications to look at you from afar?
Only when the great army left the Imperial City did the crowd slowly disperse.
“Miss, let’s go back …” “There are too many people here, it would be terrible if we were to be recognized!” Xing’er whispered. Right at this time, Qing Que’s eyes suddenly lit up, before Xing’er could react, Qing Que had already walked towards the alley opposite her.
“Miss!” Seeing that Qing Que had left, Xing’er hurried to catch up, but this was not the way to the outskirts of the city.
Outside the alleyway, Xing’er was panting heavily as she caught up to Qing Que. However, in the next second, Qing Que had covered her cherry lips with her hands, following the direction that Qing Que was looking at, Xing’er couldn’t help but look over, and saw Eunuch Zhou in the palace. And in front of him, stood a few masked men dressed in the attire of guards.
“Listen up, the emperor has an order! Once he found the Great Concubine Qing, he would be done with it on the spot! This is something that must not be revealed to anyone! ” Eunuch Zhou said with a cold voice, looking in the direction of Qing Que out of the corner of his eyes.
“Your subordinate commands!” The black-robed guard immediately cupped his hands and saluted as he heard the order. He then leapt up and left. Eunuch Zhou then turned around and looked around before walking towards the palace.
“Did you see that it was Eunuch Zhou?” She had only known that Shen Han Sheng was heartless, but she had not expected him to be the same as Shen Han Xin, wanting to silence her. He should know her intentions, so by doing so, how could she endure!
Miss, Xing’er saw that it was none other than Eunuch Zhou! What should he do now? Since the emperor wants to silence us by killing us, do we have to move far away? ” Her eyes were filled with fear.
“Move away? Could it be that in this world, where can we move to?! Come back with me and pack your things! We’re moving back to the Imperial City! ” She was unwilling. There would be a day when she would personally ask Shen Hansheng why he treated her in such a manner! Xing’er looked at Qing Que in surprise.
“No way, Miss. Are we moving back to the Imperial City? “They …”
“The most dangerous place is the safest place. No matter what, they did not expect me to be in the Imperial City! I’ll wait for Shen Hansheng to come back and see how he’s going to explain his promise to me! ” Qing Que said fiercely, the coldness in her eyes could make people tremble uncontrollably.
After Qing Que and Xing’er left, that figure slowly walked out from the darkness.
“Master, looks like they believe!” Zi Min was dressed like a eunuch as she stood by Duan Mu Yan’s side. In her hands, she held the imitation of Eunuch Zhou’s face.
“I just remembered. When we were at the Great Mo Yi Spring Academy, you made me a face. Meng Yan, she was also named after that time!” Her gaze followed Qing Que’s direction as she looked over. At that moment, within Qing Que’s resentful eyes, Duan Mu Yan finally understood why Qing Que chose to change the name on the imperial edict to Shen Hansheng instead of Shen Hanxin.
