There was no flattery on everyone's face. Zhao Li's face was watered with rain, and his heart was very cold.
Self mocking mouth, ah
No matter where you go, whether in the state of Zhao or the state of Mingyue, the favor of the emperor is the most important.
However, listening to the heavy bell on the top of the mountain, it means that the emperor of the bright moon country has climbed to the top of Fenghuang mountain, and the sacrifice will begin soon.
The light rain doesn't know when it will rain. Wait until the light rain is over. Maybe the sacrifice will be over. If he doesn't go to sacrifice and returns to the harem, his life will be more difficult.
In the past, when the female emperor stayed in his Qingquan palace every day, he never gave a good look to the men in the harem. These men have been eyeing themselves
If he doesn't accompany the sacrificial ceremony, he will be completely out of favor after returning to the palace. Even if he has a high seniority in the harem and has no backing behind him, he suddenly remembered the fate of his mother as a palace maid, and his body shook coldly.
I don't know where the strength came from. He pushed away the female officer who was blocking in front. His eyebrows and eyes were low, and his high and cold face completely disappeared.
"With you, what kind of thing do you dare to stop me?" He looked gloomy and roared. The state of Zhao respected men. In order to protect himself, he also practiced martial arts. After coming to the state of the moon, he dared not relax for a moment in the face of the women who coveted his beauty.
These female officials who were raised in the deep palace since childhood are not Zhao Li's opponents, although they are tall and powerful.
Soon Zhao Li broke through the siege.
"Imperial concubine! You can't go up! Your majesty has orders! People in the harem should wait until the rain stops. "
What must wait for the rain to stop before going up, which is clearly aimed at him!!!
He knew from an early age that although Zhao Jue had a good temper, he was the only one who asked for it!!
The empress might be afraid that other concubines would go up and Zhao Jue would be jealous, so she deliberately made such an excuse!!
Xu Xue was left in the front, and the conflict behind was naturally heard by him. She frowned and listened to the voice of her beloved's temper, tightening her heart.
What kind of grievance did this make him suffer, so that he could become such a gentle and cold person!!
Xu Xue clenched her lips tightly. Finally, after hesitating for a moment, she couldn't help coming forward. She looked at the arrogant female official with a cold face, scolded coldly and said, "what's going on here? You just a female official dare to stop the way of the imperial concubine!"
When the female official saw that Xu Xue was coming, the cold and impatient expression on her face immediately changed. She looked at Xu Xue with a smile. "The prime minister is not a slave or maid who deliberately embarrasses the imperial concubine, but a concubine of the imperial palace. You can't walk up the Phoenix Mountain to participate in the sacrificial ceremony until the rain stops."
"The rain hasn't stopped yet. If the imperial concubine goes up rashly and annoys his majesty Fengyan, we servants will lose our lives!!!"
"I hope the prime minister will not embarrass the slaves."
Zhao Li was trembling with anger. He was not well at the thought of what humiliation and treatment he would suffer after he could not participate in the sacrificial ceremony and returned to the palace.
He looked at Xu Xue with a resentful look.
Xu Xue couldn't help it. She almost came forward to hold people in pain.
If it hadn't been for his own identity, I'm afraid the female official who humiliated his sweetheart would have fallen to the ground.
"It's raining a little less now. We should let the concubines go up first." Xu Xue said slowly, "the sacrificial ceremony has always been the tradition of the bright moon country. The worship of the harem is indispensable. Your majesty is only concerned that the harem concubines will fall because of the rain and let the concubines wait here."
"But if you miss the time of the sacrificial ceremony because of your rigidity, you won't lose your head at that time. If you blame it, it's estimated that your family's life can't be saved."
Now she is not in the palace. The people she carries have long been hidden by the female emperor. If you want to do something outside the palace, your hands and feet will be open.
Xu Xue slowly lifted the corners of her lips. She understood that the female emperor must have brought many dark guards around this sacrificial ceremony. Although she could not let the female emperor die directly, at least she would not let the female emperor leave the sacrificial ceremony intact.
"This......" the female official's face showed a look of embarrassment. She looked at Zhao Li standing in front of her and looked at Xu Xue again. It was obviously moved by what Xu Xue said.
No one can guess your Majesty's mind now. It's a gust of wind and rain. If she really makes the concubines wait here on a whim and blames the concubines for the lack of worship at the sacrifice ceremony later, her whole family will die.
"Don't worry. The prime minister will bear the burden for you when something happens."
A gentle smile appeared on Xu Xue's face, but the murderous spirit towards the female official was hidden in her eyes.
The female emperor couldn't move because of her identity, but what was the identity of this little female official? She dared to humiliate Zhao Li in public.
After hesitating for a moment, the female officer gave up her body and let the people pass.
Xu Xue looked at Zhao Li with a smile, but Zhao Ligen, who had been humiliated at this time, didn't want to give any response. He directly sank his face and walked up the steps.
But at this time, a group of imperial guards ran down, invited all the ministers who were stranded to Fenghuang mountain, and then blocked the entrance steps to Fenghuang mountain.
Xu Xue's face suddenly looked ugly, "Your Majesty, what do you want to do???"
All the ministers went up, but left her a prime minister and a concubine of the harem here, waiting at the foot of the mountain??
The expression on the Imperial Guard's face was very cold. He just responded to his Majesty's order and didn't respond anymore.
Xu Xue's face suddenly became very ugly.
This woman definitely did it on purpose!!
She was so angry that she wanted to stamp her feet, but she had no way to face the resistance of the royal guards.
A little female official, she can deceive, but she can't get in at all because she has been controlled by the leader of the dark guard.
She subconsciously looked at Zhao Li. Sure enough, she saw a disappointed look on his face.
Xu Xue's heart was tight. She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she couldn't say it in front of so many people.
