Chapter 2689

Chu Fengyi clenched the exquisite box in her hand, bowed respectfully to the tablets on the desk again, then turned and left with big strides.

After she left, the mausoleum fell into a deadly silence again, only the flickering candles in front of the tablet still exuded a ghostly and gloomy atmosphere.

Holding the exquisite wooden box, Chu Fengyi quietly retreated out like she did when she entered the mausoleum before.

The picture of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains returned to its original position. If it hadn't been known in advance, no one would have believed that there was actually a secret door leading to the royal tomb hidden there.

This night, Chu Fengyi finally did not have any more nightmares, but slept very peacefully.

In the dream, she seemed to be back when she was a toddler, and she fell into an extremely warm embrace.

She didn't even need to look to know who that embrace belonged to.

That was the mommy she was most attached to, not the queen mother who suddenly changed her temperament a few years later and treated her like a stranger.

The sky brightened quickly, and the rising sun slowly jumped out of the clouds, casting golden light on the ground, warming the entire country of W.

Chu Fengyi woke up quietly, slowly opened her eyes, and there was no longer any melancholy on her face.

After a brief grooming, Chu Fengyi changed into the magnificent imperial dress, and went to the daily morning meeting as usual.

The ministers had been waiting there for a long time, and briefly stated the major issues that needed to be decided by Chu Fengyi, and more than half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

"Well, these things will be handled according to what you said above. Besides, the day after tomorrow is a good day for everything. I want to personally hold a grand wedding for Lan Xin and General Ke Jia."

As soon as Chu Fengyi's words fell, many ministers praised her one after another, "Miss Lan Xin can be married by the queen herself, it is such a blessing that I can't make it in three lifetimes!"

"Yeah, such a great honor is simply a blessing!"

"It's been a long time since we in Country W have been so lively. We will definitely be there when the time comes, and celebrate with us."

Hearing the boasting of the ministers one after another, Chu Fengyi raised a condescending smile, "Well, then this matter is settled, do you have anything else to ask? If not, go down and help Let's prepare for Lan Xin's wedding!"

As she said that, Chu Fengyi slowly waved her hand, indicating that the ministers can leave.

How dare the ministers present have any objections? They all left the hall one after another.

Curtis walked at the end, walking very slowly.

He always felt that there was something wrong with the queen today, and occasionally cast cold eyes on himself, obviously he had something to tell him.

Sure enough, before Curtis reached the door, the Queen's calm voice came from behind, "Curtis, you stay."

"Yes, Your Majesty the Queen." Curtis turned around in response, and came to Chu Fengyi respectfully.

Chu Fengyi glanced at the empty hall, and signaled the maid beside her to leave, "Go down first, I have something to discuss with General Curtis."

"Yes."

The maids retreated in small steps, not forgetting to close the door of the main hall.

The heavy door was slowly closed, and in the huge hall, only Chu Fengyi, who was sitting on a high seat, and Curtis, who was standing there respectfully, were left.

Chu Fengyi looked at Curtis coldly, stood up slowly, and asked in a deep voice as she walked towards him, "Curtis, are you sincere to my daughter Lingxi? Can you treat her better than her?" Is your own life more important?"

Curtis immediately nodded heavily, "Queen Mingjian, from the moment I saw Princess Lingxi, I have all eyes and hearts on her, and I will never marry Princess Lingxi in this life! For Princess Lingxi, I am willing to marry you." Throw your head and blood, and work hard for her happiness for the rest of your life..."

"Okay, put away your high-sounding words," Chu Fengyi waved off Curtis before he could finish, "I can see that you really like Lingxi, but I don't know that you How heavy this kind of liking is. But it doesn't matter, as long as you can give Lingxi happiness, I will naturally give you all the glory; if you dare to make Lingxi unhappy in the slightest, I will definitely let you see what it means Thunder method!"

Chu Fengyi's voice was extraordinarily cold, and even the gaze she cast on Curtis was undeniably cold and unquestionable.

Curtis was both surprised and delighted, knowing that the reason why Chu Fengyi beat her side drum like this must be because she had already made some decision.

Could it be that she has decided to marry Princess Lingxi to herself?

As soon as this thought popped out of Curtis's mind, he directly knelt down in front of Chu Fengyi happily, "Don't worry, queen, if I can't take good care of Princess Lingxi, I'd rather be imprisoned in a dark and damp water prison. And there will be absolutely no complaints!"

"Well," Chu Fengyi nodded indifferently, "Forgive me that you don't dare to do anything to make Lingxi sad."

"Don't dare, I don't dare!" Curtis expressed his attitude repeatedly, for fear that he was slow to speak, and Chu Fengyi didn't seem to believe it.

"Well," Chu Fengyi was obviously satisfied with Curtis's answer. Slowly nodded, "Very well, since this is the case, I can safely hand over Princess Lingxi to you. Now, I still need you to do things for me, no, to be precise, I should do something for you. "

Curtis quickly responded, "Your servant is panicked, please ask the queen to express it."

Chu Fengyi subconsciously glanced at the empty hall, and then took out an exquisite wooden box from the wide phoenix robe.

This box is only the size of a palm, and the workmanship is very fine. There are also beautiful and complicated patterns on it. At first glance, it looks like a rare handicraft.

Curtis had already seen the box, but he didn't dare to ask further questions, and waited quietly for Chu Fengyi's next words.

"The day after tomorrow will be Lan Xin and Ke Jia's wedding day. What you have to do is to seize the best opportunity."

As Chu Fengyi said, she handed over the wooden box she was clutching in her hand, "As long as you take advantage of the chaos of the wedding and take Ping Shun down, Lingxi will be your fiancée from now on."

"Thank you for the Queen's grace, I assure you, I will definitely complete the task!" Curtis quickly took the wooden box, only feeling that the palm-sized small box was heavy, and he didn't know what was inside, so he asked curiously Sentence, "I don't know what's in it?"

The corner of Chu Fengyi's mouth raised a cruel smile, "It's nothing, it's something that can help you drive away that foreigner from Pingshun."

Curtis became more curious, looked down at the delicate wooden box in his hand, and was about to open it to see what was inside.

He guessed that it must be the royal family's secret poison, but isn't this heavy weight a bit too much?

"Don't open it without authorization. The things inside are very powerful, and once opened, it will explode." Chu Fengyi stopped Curtis from opening the box without authorization, "What you need to do is to find a way to make Ping Shun alone Open this box."
