Chapter 470

“Imperial brother, success or failure is at stake, no matter if it can be successful or not, please Imperial brother help his younger brother to try his best.”

“Okay, I’ll try, but it doesn’t always work.”

“It’s not a problem, please just do your best, Royal Brother.”

Because of the assassination of the Emperor of the Great Yue Kingdom, the heart of the Great Yue Kingdom’s military began to be in turmoil. Baili Junyi, after thinking carefully with the generals for a long time, finally decided to take the lead and recapture Yuncheng, the closest city to Suicheng first.

This side of the war is in full swing, the three princes and four princes in the court are trying to toss. Suicheng border army they can not intervene, can only in their hearts hope that the battlefield swords without eyes, the best let Baili Jun Yi in the battlefield can not come back.

Shen Ninghua spread the news of the great victory at the border all over Da’an, and many people cheered. They didn’t like war, but they were still extraordinarily happy to hear about the victory, especially with the Empress sitting in Kyoto, handling all the political affairs in a well-organized manner, and even a natural disaster as big as the snowstorm didn’t make them experience much loss.

Some accepted the three princes and four princes solicitation of the old school officials in the heart apprehensive, the emperor before he did not ascend the throne dared to take them to open the knife, do not care about and they against, and now if it is from the border to return in triumph, the court even more no place for them, it seems, really need to think of ways earlier ah.

Many of them thought from the grain on the foot, but unfortunately Shen Ninghua a long time ago to prepare, simply do not allow them to dip into the side of the grain, can only settle for the second best, so that the officials under the mess, the results did not wait to do it, it was Shen Ninghua inserted eye line to pull out. Shen Ninghua also do not care, directly to the people to declare the fault of this official, and then dragged to the beheading of the market, tossed a few times to find no effect, after the officials honestly.

In the palace, the water can not be splashed, political affairs also can not allow them to fool around, a time is calm and nothing. The next two months, good news continues to come.

First, the snowstorm relief in various places ended, the land had thawed and the people started to cultivate one after another, Shen Ninghua let the court provide grain seeds to help the people restore their fields, and for a while, he harvested the awe and gratitude of countless people. And then the news of the great victory at the border kept coming, Baili Junyi used Suicheng as the starting point and recovered five cities in a row, driving the army of the Great Yue Country outward for three hundred miles and killing countless enemies.

The new faction of officials in the courtroom had a complete advantage, and they extraordinarily embraced Shen Ninghua, making her more and more obedient and smooth in political affairs. Just when everything was getting better, an eight hundred mile expedited message broke this tranquility.

At that time, Shen Ninghua was playing with her three children when Hongling came to report, “Empress Dowager, urgent letter from the border, eight hundred li expedited.”

Shen Ninghua hurriedly asked the sisters to bring the child down, and then quickly walked to the front hall to see the messenger officer. The messenger officer was covered in wind and dust, and his face was even whiter, “My subordinates have seen the Empress Mother.”

Shen Ninghua frowned slightly, “You were sent by Ye Yi?”

“Yes, my subordinate is under the orders of Master Ye.”

“Bring the letter here.”

The crier raised the letter above his head before saying in a deep voice, “Please hold on, Your Highness, the Great An Kingdom still needs you to preside over the situation.”

Shen Ninghua’s heart trembled, a wave of uneasiness violently sprang up from his heart, and the action of opening the letter was a little shaky, “This … is true?”

Hongling hurriedly looked at Shen Ninghua, only to see her face turn pale with a brush, her body still trembling slightly, as if she had fallen into great helplessness and panic, “Your Highness, are you alright?”

The messenger officer reported back, “Yes, Ye Palmistress is sending people to search from person to person, hoping to find His Majesty as soon as possible.”

Shen Ninghua staggered backward two steps and sat violently on the chair, “How did the Emperor disappear, are there any clues?”

“Report to Your Highness, at that time, the Liang army was fighting in Qiyo, the Emperor used the terrain to block 20,000 Great Yue troops into the valley, wanting to wipe them out in one fell swoop, who knew that the ambush, the situation was too chaotic, the Emperor was injured, originally thought it didn’t matter, but the arrows were poisoned, Ye Palmistress and General Han Qi protected the Emperor to break out, was attacked by the rain of arrows, and the Emperor fell down the cliff inadvertently …”

Shen Ninghua’s heart seized with pain, and she forced herself not to collapse, “Find, even if you dig up the mountains along the border, you must find the Emperor!”

“Yes, subordinate lead.”

When the summoning officer retreated, Hongling stood to Shen Ninghua’s side with some concern, “Your Highness, are you alright?”

Shen Ninghua was in a trance and stood up somewhat frozen, and then her body shook and she directly fainted.

Hongling subconsciously held her up and exclaimed in a loud voice, “Imperial physician, summon the imperial physician.”

The movement in the palace could not be hidden from anyone, Baili Jinjing slapped the table and laughed, “Imperial brother, I really have to thank you, this time you have made a great achievement.”

Third Prince Baili Jin Yu was also full of smiles, “I also didn’t expect that the reclusive Tu Su family would be willing to make a move, this is great, Baili Jun Yi is dead, we can have some big moves.”

“Not bad, this matter imperial brother should be credited with a great merit! I’ll gather my men and make a trip to the palace to see what Shen Ninghua will say!”

“Fourth brother, don’t be reckless, the news is estimated to have just entered the palace, if you go over at this time, isn’t it obvious that you are telling Shen Ninghua that you are involved with Baili Junyi’s death?”

“Imperial brother, at this point in time, there is no need to hide, could it be that we brothers, joining forces, still can’t deal with a woman? Even if Shen Ninghua has a thousand skills, without Baili Junyi, she is nothing!”

Susanna Chen helped Shen Ninghua tie the needle, her brows furrowed tightly, “Empress Dowager has been unusually exhausted since this period of time, coupled with the sudden stimulus, this time, the months of conditioning have been wasted.”

Hongling was filled with worry, “Lord Chen, is it important?”

“It can’t be helped if it matters …”

Before the words were finished, the green sparrow walked in with a sullen face, “The third and fourth princes have gathered outside of the Chengqian Hall with a group of ministers, requesting an audience with the Empress.”

“What are they doing here at this hour? Could it be that they know about the Emperor’s disappearance?”

“I’m afraid so.”

“No, at this time, we can’t let them rush the Empress Mother, let the men of the forbidden guards block them, the Empress Mother is in a coma now, no one is to be seen!”

Hongling’s words just finished, Shen Ninghua slowly opened her eyes and struggled to get up, “Green Bird … don’t need to block, let them go to the Chengqian Hall … This palace goes to see them, Hongling, help me comb my makeup. ”

“Niangniang!” The two exclaimed out in shock, rushing forward to help her up, “You are not well now, go see them at this time …”

Susanna Chen sighed and helped Shen Ninghua re-diagnose her pulse, “Your Highness, you need to take the medicine in half an hour, you need to rush back in time.”

Shen Ninghua raised her head and glanced gratefully at Susanna Chen, “Thank you, Lord Chen.”

“Your Highness …” Hongling was extraordinarily worried, at this time the Third Prince and the Fourth Prince and others came obviously with bad intentions, there might even be a conflict in the hall, the Queen has just fainted from the blow, if she is stimulated again… …

Shen Ninghua got up, will be an empress court dress over, carefully put on one by one, and then used the rouge powder, let the pale face appear to be a little bit of redness, straighten the spine pace steadily walked out.

She didn’t believe that something would happen to Baili Junyi, he promised that he would come back, and he also promised the children, so he wouldn’t go back on his word, and he couldn’t go back on his word either, so at this time, she had to stabilize the dynasty, and anything that would try to shake up the dynasty, and subsequently affect the borders, she wouldn’t allow to happen.

The third prince and the fourth prince old God stood in the Chengqian Hall, thinking about later Shen Ninghua panicked appearance, can not help but hook his lips and laugh lightly, so long, was her house arrest and bullying, really think they have no fire in their hearts ah, hum, today let her see, see their means.

“The Empress has arrived.”

The people in the hall turned their heads at the same time to look over, Shen Ninghua was dressed in a gorgeous queen’s phoenix robe, which was generally the same as in the past, and even looked even more stunning and compelling because of the lipstick and powder she had used.

The following many ministers heart doubt, the emperor and the empress of the feelings they are aware of, does not seem to fake ah, how the empress heard the news of the death of the emperor, a little performance is not? Or is it that they have been deceived, the emperor is simply fine? Think of Baili Jun Yi that treacherous nature, the heart suddenly cooled a bit, damn, the emperor really dry out.

Shen Ninghua sat on the dragon chair, his eyes coldly swept from the crowd, “In the past days on the court also did not see all the adults this active, today is what happened, about to come to the Chengqian Hall?”

The Fourth Prince let out a cold laugh, “Empress Dowager, it’s come to this, do you still want to hide it from us?”

“Concealment, what does the Fourth Prince mean by that?”

“News has come from the border that His Majesty has been killed in a shipwreck, don’t say that Your Highness didn’t receive the eight hundred miles of urgency from the border.”

Shen Ninghua’s eyes flashed with murderous intent before she let out a light laugh, “How come this palace doesn’t know when the Fourth Prince’s messages are more timely than the 800-mile expedited? If you have special summoning skills, why don’t you say and share them, so that in the future, it won’t take so long for this Palace to communicate with the Emperor.”

“Empress, don’t change the subject, with the death of the Emperor, the Great An Kingdom can’t be without a ruler for a day, it simply can’t be left in your hands as a woman!”

“How dare you!” Shen Ninghua shouted coldly, “Fourth Prince, you’re cursing the Emperor, who gave you the guts!”

“Empress Mother, you are dead set against admitting it, do you want to take this opportunity to hold the imperial government and disrupt the Great An Kingdom?” The fourth prince decided that Shen Ninghua was colorful, and spoke with no politeness at all, his eyes staring at the throne of the emperor without blinking, his greed was unmistakable: in no time, this position would be his!

Shen Ninghua looked at the officials below, “You have also come to force the Palace to surrender the power of the dynasty after hearing about the Emperor’s accident?”
