The Emperor gave Xia Sizhu a appreciative look. He was very satisfied with her ruthlessness. If she didn't treat the enemy ruthlessly, she would be harming herself.
"I …" Yan Aoxuan glanced at Yan Tianhua, not knowing what she should do. She wasn't willing to die just like that, she had yet to kill that slut.
But dad doted on her so much, without dad, how could she earn money?
However, when she saw Dongfang Ye looking dotingly at Xia Sizhu, her nerves completely broke.
"I want to live." Yan Aoxuan shouted out loud. She wanted to live on and take away everything from Xia Sizhu.
"This subject has a few more words to say before the emperor issues his decree." Yan Tianhua wanted Yan Aoxuan to live on, but his heart ached when he heard her choice.
"En!" The emperor responded faintly.
"Xuan`er, in the future when your father is not by your side, you must be careful at all times. Stop being so reckless; if something happens, there won't be a second father to help you take responsibility." Yan Tianhua said as he looked at Yan Aoxuan.
"Empress Dowager, Xuan'er's mistress is the Empress's sister, and this subject is begging the Empress to give him a hand. Xuan'er was born without a mistress, and I hope that the Empress can give her some maternal love in place of her mother. This subject will kowtow to the Empress and express my gratitude."
Yan Tianhua kowtowed to the empress. Everyone who saw Yan Tianhua's appearance felt that he was of no value to Yan Tianhua.
He treated his daughter so well and protected her from every angle. In the end, his daughter chose to live by herself to kill his father. He was truly heartless.
Xia Sizhu had only given them a choice, but the one they had chosen was Yan Ao Xuan herself. Therefore, the other ministers didn't have much resentment towards Xia Sizhu.
The corners of Xia Sizhu's mouth curled up. The innocence had disappeared, the will of the people had disappeared, and so had her father. Yan Ao Xuan wanted to see what else you could do.
"I understand." When the Queen said this, she clenched her sleeves into a fist, looking at Yan Tianhua with a hint of apology in her eyes. The hatred in her heart also disappeared.
If he could do this for Yan Ao Xuan, what else could she hate about him? In the end, he had given her a chance to get close to Yan Ao Xuan; she was already too weak to get up.
"Your majesty, chenqie will bring Xuan'er to find a place to stay!" The empress calmed herself down and said.
"I don't feel comfortable watching you take her down." The emperor waved his hand, indicating for the empress to bring Yan Ao Xuan away.
"Follow me." The Queen came down from her seat, stretched out her hand and pulled Yan Ao Xuan up, then walked towards the entrance of the hall.
The empress held onto Yan Aoxuan's hand, the corners of her mouth slightly raised. This was so great! In the future, she would be able to love and love her without any scruples.
"Remember, it was your own choice that caused your father's death." As Yan Ao Xuan walked past Xia Si Zhu, Xia Si Zhu whispered into Yan Ao Xuan's ear. In exchange for a gaze full of hatred, Xia Si Zhu didn't mind.
However, she did not expect that Yan Ao Xuan's mother and empress would actually be siblings, but this did not change anything.
"Everyone here has seen it, I do not wish to see a second Yan Tianhua father and daughter." After Yan Tianhua was dragged away, the Emperor looked at the ministers and spoke.
"As you wish." The ministers all knew that the emperor was warning them not to have any ill intentions towards Xia Si Zhu.
"I've let the Second Prince down." One matter had come to an end, but there was one matter that had not been dealt with. It was Prince Xi Ling, who was still in the great hall.
"Where are you going? His Majesty's actions are against those who want to harm him, and Qing'er's men deserve to die."
The words of the Western Tomb Beitang were very calm, but they were filled with killing intent. Coupled with his reserved aura, it was surprisingly harmonious.
"Qing'er?" Since when was the Second Prince so familiar with Si Zhu?
"Father, this is how it is." Xia Si Zhu told her about how the Western Tomb Beitang had saved him.
After hearing this, the Emperor felt a trace of goodwill towards the Western Tomb Beitang.
"Is there something important to discuss with the Second Prince?" Although he was the one who saved Si Zhu, he still had to ask.
"Of course it's something important." The corners of the Western Tomb Beitang's mouth curled up as he took out a jade box from his chest.
"A cold jade box." The Empress Dowager immediately saw through the jade box that the Western Tomb Beitang had just taken out.
"Yes, this box contains a thousand-year snow lotus. This is a gift from me to the emperor. Many thanks to his imperial brother for taking care of me."
When the Western Tomb Beitang took out the jade box, a eunuch came down and took the jade box and gave it to the Emperor.
"Second Prince, you've troubled yourself." The Emperor glanced at the snow lotus in the jade box presented by the eunuch before smiling as he spoke.
This snow lotus was a good item, not to mention a thousand years old.
"My royal brother is going to register himself as Emperor in the next two months. I've come to find him to deliver the invitation letter on my way back."
The Western Tomb Beitang took out another invitation letter from his bosom, and the eunuch handed it over to the emperor.
"At that time, I will definitely send someone over." The emperor took the invitation and glanced at it before putting it down.
"Little Zhu, accompany This Dowager for a walk and let them discuss the matter." Her Majesty stood up and said.
On the other side, the Queen was currently leading Yan Aoxuan to her own palace. Along the way, she greeted Yan Aoxuan warmly, as if she was her own daughter, and was very concerned about her.
"Xuan'er, you can stay here for now. I will help you settle the rest of your matters in the future." The Queen brought Yan Aoxuan to a room, patting her shoulder as she spoke.
"Many thanks, esteemed empress." There was no expression on Yan Aoxuan's face, her expression was terrifyingly calm.
Her mind was still filled with memories of the past, as well as the scene of Yan Tianhua being dismembered by his horse. Her mind was in a mess.
"Mufei, your son has come to see you." As soon as Dong Fang Li stepped into the empress's palace, she saw Yan Aoxuan in a slightly sorry state not too far away.
"Xuan'er, you rest first. I have something to discuss with the crown prince." The Queen turned to Yan Ao Xuan and said.
"Yes." Yan Aoxuan nodded her head obediently. She had nothing left now, so she could only rely on the Empress.
"Who was that person just now?" After leaving her line of sight, Dongfang Li asked. He remembered that he had never seen her by his mother's side before.
"She is the daughter of General Yan." The empress had told all that happened to Yan Tianhua to Dongfang Li.
"So she has nowhere to go?" Dongfang Li's eyes flashed. She had an idea in her heart.
"What does Li'er want to do?" When the Queen saw Dong Fang Li's expression, she knew that he had a plan in mind.
"Leave her in my house!" Dong Fang Li gently sipped her tea, and said indifferently as she raised her eyes to look at Yan Ao Xuan who was some distance away.
"Yan Tianhua is dead, but he still has his loyal subordinates. Although Yan Tianhua died because of Yan Aoxuan, they won't let Yan Tianhua lose his heir. This son of his will bring her to the Crown Prince's Palace, which will greatly benefit their future recruitment."
Dongfang Li slowly spoke, bit by bit. The yearning in her eyes for the future, and her desire for power.
When the time came, as long as he let Yan Aoxuan apologize and cry, those subordinates of General Yan would definitely know that General Yan doted on this daughter of his and would definitely not ignore her.
"I'll listen to you!" Take her with you when you go back! " The empress wanted to be good to Yan Ao Xuan in the palace, maybe the empress dowager and emperor would harm her and send her out.
Xuan`er was in the palace, so he might have been careless and had been set up by someone. Once that matter had been exposed, everyone would die together.
Dong Fang Li and the empress chatted for a while longer before Yan Ao Xuan was brought back.
