Chapter 50: Past Events
"Ah?" Jinli was confused for a moment.
“I am now in Yi Guan Jin, and I have recruited a group of younger brothers.
The strength of these brothers should be okay, and they should have no problem defeating Sima Ting.
Do you want me to send someone to help you?" Qi Yuan always kept Jin Li's current situation in mind.
Now that we have subdued the Yibu Imperial Guards, we should send them to help Jinli as soon as possible. Delaying for even a day may lead to irreparable regrets.
"Ah?" A huge surprise surged into Jinli's heart. If Qi Yuan was by her side, she couldn't imagine how crazy or abrupt her actions would be at this moment.
She dared to devote herself to him, but was afraid that she was not worthy of him.
"Are you happy?" Qi Yuan said proudly, "I'll help you cheat."
He suddenly felt like he was a player who spent tens of millions of RMB.
Jinli is just an ordinary player.
The gaming experience for ordinary players and also RMB players.
Of course, more importantly, when he was seriously ill and living alone, Jinli was the only ray of light he saw.
“But if I send someone over, I think the speed will be quite slow, and we have to attack from outside the city. There’s no one to protect you, and Sima Ting might do something desperate.
How about this, you build an altar, perform sacrifices, and the Imperial Guards will appear.
Probably, three days will be enough!"
Qi Yuan told Jinli in detail the method of summoning the Yibu Imperial Guards, which took about half an hour.
Qi Yuan was extremely tired and finally logged off.
Xiao Jia hugged Qi Yuan quietly, without moving, as if Qi Yuan was everything to her.
…
"Summon the Imperial Guards!" A smile appeared in Jinli's eyes.
Among them, there is the joy of surviving the disaster, and also the joy of being able to see... Qi Yuan.
"Come here, call the Minister of Rites Kong Qi..." Jinli started, and as she thought about it, she added another name, "Call Duke Yu!"
About half an hour later.
In the palace, Kong Qi and Duke Yu stood at the foot of the hall.
Aunt Qin, Hua Xian and others also stood aside.
They looked at Queen Jinli with a hint of doubt in their eyes.
"Minister Kong, I want to build an altar. Here is the blueprint. How many days will it take to complete?" Empress Jinli handed a blueprint to the flower fairy, who handed it to Kong Qi.
This picture was drawn by Jinli himself.
Kong Qi took the drawing and looked at it carefully.
After looking at it for a while, he had a puzzled look in his eyes: “Your Majesty, this altar can be built in four to five days.
I wonder, Your Majesty, what is the purpose of building this altar?"
Kong Qi was very puzzled.
Duke Yu, who was standing next to him, was also somewhat puzzled.
Now, Sima Ting has such a wolfish ambition, he shouldn't be thinking about how to deal with it or escape, why would he build this altar? Jin Li's face changed, becoming cold and majestic: "Just do it, don't ask why!"
"This..." Kong Qi's face became embarrassed, "Although I am the Minister of Rites, the Ministry of Rites... is actually under the control of that villain Sima Ting.
If I want to mobilize manpower and material resources to build the altar, I need to find a suitable reason. "
Aunt Qin was a little dissatisfied when she heard this: "Is it not okay for His Majesty to personally decree it?"
Although, she didn't understand why His Majesty did this.
However, she would definitely agree with what Your Majesty did.
"The reason... is that I want to offer sacrifices to God and my ancestors. Is this reason enough?" Jinli said, feeling a little uncomfortable inside.
Indeed, she had no control over the six ministries at all.
She is like a mascot.
Life and death depends entirely on Sima Ting's mood.
"Your Majesty... I'm afraid... it won't work." Kong Qi knelt on the ground, prostrating himself on the ground, his face full of shame, "I have failed your majesty's grace!"
Although he was a great sage and had a good reputation in Nanqian, he could not even control the Ministry of Rites.
However, Kong Qi raised his head again: "Your Majesty, the most urgent task is to leave the imperial city.
Building an altar is not a big deal.
Your Majesty, please consider the overall situation, discuss a plan to leave the capital, go to Yanbei Pass, and order General Tianqi to fight the enemy!"
In Kong Qi's opinion, what's the point of building an altar?
The most urgent task now is for Your Majesty to leave Beijing.
As long as General Tianqi remains loyal to Nan Qian, Your Majesty will still be Your Majesty!
Jinli said nothing.
It is very important to build an altar for worshipping gods.
However, she could not tell anyone that she could summon the Yibu Imperial Guards, otherwise Sima Ting might hear about it.
This incident sounds very strange and far-fetched, but what if Sima Ting had been more cautious?
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Duke Yu stood aside and whispered, “Your Majesty, it is better to leave Beijing at this moment.
Only by leaving Beijing can we have a chance of survival!"
However, most people present knew that it was almost impossible for His Majesty to successfully leave the capital.
But this is also the only possibility to survive.
Jinli's face was gloomy: "Build an altar for worshiping the gods!"
At this moment, she must be stubborn and tough!
Seeing this, Kong Qi felt somewhat disappointed with Queen Jinli.
Although the late emperor was also sidelined, he always wanted to break free from the cage and acted like a wise ruler.
But Queen Jinli...
Kong Qi was in agony. Seeing Jin Li's stubbornness, he burst into tears and said, "I am useless and cannot help your majesty. I am willing to donate 370 taels of silver to help your majesty raise funds to build the altar for the gods."
Three hundred and seventy taels of silver is a lot for ordinary people, but it is not enough to build an altar.
Duke Yu, who was standing by, sighed when he heard this: "Your Majesty, are you going to fall with the country? I am willing to donate 80,000 taels of silver and 800 craftsmen to build an altar for your Majesty. This is also the last thing I will do for Nan Qian."
At that time, his daughter, Concubine Xi, was pregnant, and the queen was also pregnant. The two were enjoying the flowers together, and the palace maid brought a bowl of apricot blossom snow and a bowl of ordinary soup.
Imperial Concubine Xi always liked to drink Xinghuaxue, so the Queen gave some to Imperial Concubine Xi.
Unexpectedly, someone put drugs in the soup, and Concubine Xi had a miscarriage after drinking it. She eventually died of depression.
It can be said that if there had been no Concubine Xi, the one who drank the bowl of soup would have been the Queen. In that case, Empress Jinli would never have been born.
It can be said that Concubine Xi and the child in her belly saved the life of Empress Jinli.
Of course, there were rumors that Concubine Xi was poisoned by the Queen out of jealousy, but Duke Yu knew that it was Sima Ting's work.
Therefore, when Empress Jinli came to Duke Yu's mansion to borrow books, Duke Yu broke the law and asked Jinli to kneel before his daughter.
Because her daughter and the grandson she had never met died for Queen Jinli.
Sometimes, he even treated Empress Jinli as his own granddaughter.
Jinli naturally didn't know all this, but when she heard Duke Yu's words, she was delighted.
"Thank you, Duke Yu!"
Silver is important, but the craftsman is the most important.
Duke Yu provided eight hundred craftsmen, which almost solved all the problems.
How could Jinli not be happy?
Duke Yu looked at Queen Jinli, stood up and said, “Your Majesty, I don’t know why you are doing this.
But I want to say that your life was earned at the cost of countless sacrifices! Your Majesty's life and death is related to the safety of the Nanqian Kingdom!
Your Majesty, please put the country first. I will stay in the palace and build the altar for the gods!"
What he meant was that he would use it as a decoy to build the altar, and then Empress Jinli would secretly leave.
When Empress Jinli heard this, no matter how dumb she was, she understood the meaning of Duke Yu's words. She said, "I can forget about it."
