Chapter 463: Simply Outrageous
Lying in the arms of the maid who came with her dowry, the concubine's eyes were full of hatred.
She was waiting to get married at home, and in three months she would marry her lover and live a happy life.
It's a pity that the old man in the palace was so useless that he was paralyzed by this vicious man.
When the present emperor ascended the throne, he issued an imperial decree on the same day, requiring officials to send women into the palace.
The first is to expand the harem to give birth to heirs for the royal family.
The second purpose was to threaten court officials so that they would not act recklessly.
When her father found out about this, he immediately wanted to send her out and then find a maid to replace her in the palace.
The man had anticipated this and immediately sent many young eunuchs to each mansion to tie up the noble ladies and bring them into the harem.
Since that day, they have been living a life worse than death, but they dare not commit suicide for fear of implicating the thousands of people in their clans.
"One day, I will personally poison this disgusting person to death."
The little maid was startled and she quickly looked outside the door and covered her mistress's mouth.
The suppressed crying voice was full of heartache: "Miss, you must not say such treasonous words, otherwise the master and the lady in the mansion will not be able to live.
Next time, if the emperor comes again, please push me out.
Anyway, I am your dowry maid, so it is my duty to suffer for you."
The beauty shook her head with a determined look, held her hand and said seriously: “No, if he is a good person who can be trusted.
I would definitely be willing to do so, but unfortunately the emperor is a scumbag and a villain, and I absolutely cannot let you fall into the quagmire.
You remember, when the emperor comes again you must keep your head down and make yourself look as ugly as possible.
When we can leave the palace, I will find a good family to marry you off. Between us master and servant, one of us must be able to live a good life.
This way, your lady can die without regrets, understand?"
"Miss..." The little maid helped her apply medicine while crying, and her hatred for the emperor grew stronger.
Once the seeds of hatred sprout, they will grow into towering trees.
The noble ladies who were captured in the harem all knew that one of their sisters was injured tonight, so they asked the people around them to secretly send some medicine over.
At the same time, they also sent out a secret letter, which was their unique way of contacting their families. They wanted a large amount of poison, just waiting to kill the Dog Emperor one day.
The group of men in black traveled cautiously, changed their clothes several times, and finally disguised themselves as beggars for convenience.
After seven days, they finally arrived at the capital of Nanxu. However, they were stopped because a dozen beggars would surely attract the attention of the soldiers guarding the gate.
A clever man in black rolled his eyes and thought that it would be impossible to meet Emperor Nanxu, and it would even alert the enemy.
He held up the rice bowl and said, "We are the people from forty cities, and we want to thank the princess for coming all the way here.
Only those who are robbed on the road will be so miserable. Please, sir, can you please tell the former left prime minister that we can meet each other."
After these words were spoken, the soldiers guarding the gate became even more nervous, because everyone knew that everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion was a key protected target.
The palace was worried that someone would come to assassinate them, and it would be difficult to explain when the eldest princess returned.
His eyes scanned them up and down like a radar, trying to find a big hole in the dozen people in front of him.
"Okay, but you have to wait at the door and not walk around, otherwise..."
The words were full of threats and distrust. The man in black nodded quickly: "Okay, we'll stay here and not go anywhere."
Soon someone delivered the news to the palace. Upon hearing this, the new emperor frowned tightly, thinking that the people in the forty cities were poisoned.
He was also worried that there were some remnants that had not been killed and might come back to seek revenge.
He immediately sent more than a hundred guards from the palace to the Prime Minister's Mansion and told Xia Yunle the news. When the group came back, the men in black were frightened.
There were so many people coming that they thought they would lose their lives here today.
Xia Yunle walked out of the protection circle, but didn't get too close. He looked at the group of people and felt that something was weird.
He didn't look like a person from the Forty-Nine Cities, and secretly glanced at the guards around him.
After receiving it, the latter was very alert, and silently adjusted his position to get into the best position so that he could attack at any time.
This action naturally did not escape the eyes of the men in black, and they hurriedly explained it in a low voice.
"We are not from the Forty-Nine Cities, but from Western Shu.
The master in the mansion asked me to come here overnight to deliver the message. In order not to attract the attention of the Emperor of Western Shu, I had no choice but to say that I wanted to see you.
This is a letter written by the master himself. Please read it and give it to the new emperor."
When he heard that it was from Western Shu and that so much effort was spent to deliver the message, Xia Yunle's face darkened even more when he thought of a possibility.
"I will deliver this letter to the palace immediately, but you will have to endure some injustice and stay in the small courtyard for a while."
Then he instructed the people around him: "Serve them good wine and food, and prepare some bathing water and clothes for them.
The rest will be discussed after I come out of the palace."
The men in black knew that they had no right to refuse, so they said nothing and followed the man without struggling at all.
In the palace.
The new emperor, who had been waiting for news, saw him come back with the letter and was relieved after observing that he was safe and sound.
After reading the contents of the letter, he was even more furious: "How dare the Emperor of Western Shu? Is it true that the Grand Princess is gone and we have no one left in Nanxu?
Nowadays, not only the two generals of the Shan family are powerful, but Nanxu has trained many generals over the years.
Haha... Since he wants to launch a sneak attack, I will just catch him off guard.
It's a good opportunity to test how well those generals have learned. Whether they have the ability or not can only be determined on the battlefield.
When the eldest princess comes back, she won’t have to work so hard anymore, and she might even praise me for my ability.”
Xia Yunle: ???
He looked at the new emperor speechlessly. Just that one word "old man" was enough to make Ning Bao turn hostile and turn the palace upside down.
However, he is the emperor after all, and he would not say anything even if he knew the girl's personality.
As a human being, you have to endure some hardships.
He had already made up his mind that when Ning Bao came back, he, as her father, would tell her every word the new emperor had said.
Hehehehe······
The new emperor sitting on the dragon throne felt a chill on his back. He always felt that someone was plotting against him, but he had no evidence.
"The new emperor doesn't need to be angry, Xishu was going to be taken anyway.
Although Nanxu will not bully other countries at will, it is never afraid of trouble.
The Emperor of Western Shu has become increasingly restless in the past two years and has been testing the border. It would be better to just take him over directly.
So as to avoid causing trouble all day long and making it difficult for the people to live a peaceful life. "
"Indeed, what you said makes sense. Moreover, he was disrespectful to the eldest princess. For this reason alone, I cannot let him go."
