Chapter 355 After waiting for so many years, this day finally came
The entire palace was filled with a tense atmosphere.
Jiang Ruo and Xiao Chengjin held hands and strolled calmly in the palace.
Yu Beichen, An Yi and others stood guard on both sides, vigilantly observing the surrounding situation.
They secretly thought: before the master ascends the throne, they must purge the palace of dissidents...
The little phoenix flew in the sky, overlooking the entire palace with a smug look on its face.
It shouted to the frightened palace servants, "The Emperor and the Empress are here, why don't you come over and kneel down and pay your respects?"
Xiao Chengjin and Jiang Ruo: “…”
Xiaofeng has taken over all of Lin Dazongguan's work.
The palace maids hiding in the corner came out with their heads bowed, and knelt down one after another. "Your servants and servants pay their respects to the Emperor and the Empress."
Xiao Chengjin looked at the kneeling palace maids and said in a deep voice, "All of you, stand up!"
The palace maids stood there trembling, like poor little things who had been bullied.
Jiang Ruo looked at them and raised his eyebrows slightly.
A new emperor appoints new ministers, and even these palace ladies are no exception.
They must be very nervous.
Jiang Ruo pulled Xiao Chengjin in front of them and said, "What happened today was a bit too sudden. You may not be able to accept it."
"Don't be afraid, just do your job as before."
"Of course, if you don't want to stay in the palace, you can leave early."
"I'll give you three days to consider...whether to stay or go."
Upon hearing this, the palace maids looked at each other in bewilderment.
Can I leave the palace early?
This is something that needs to be carefully considered...
Seeing that they were not as scared as before, Jiang Ruo continued, "If you choose to stay, there are conditions."
"That means you have to be loyal."
"Those who choose to leave will be given enough money for their journey."
"Those who choose to stay, as long as you abide by your duties, you will not be treated unfairly."
"You all should communicate with each other and make a decision within three days."
After Jiang Ruo finished speaking, he waved his hand and said, "Alright, all of you leave!"
The palace maids knelt and kowtowed, saying, "Slaves and servants, take your leave!"
They secretly thought: How could the Queen be so kind?
No, she must be buying people's hearts.
Just like the deposed queen, who was virtuous in front of others but cruel and ruthless behind the scenes...
After the palace servants left, Xiao Chengjin whispered, "Ruoruo, let's go to Xihe Palace."
"good."
Little Phoenix looked at the two people leaving hand in hand and said in a hoarse voice: "Sister, I'm going to the cold palace to take a look."
"Don't worry, with Xiao Feng here, that Xiao Junze won't dare to cause trouble."
"Thank you for your hard work." Jiang Ruo looked back at Little Phoenix, feeling very happy.
Haha, having such a caring assistant around makes me so worry-free.
The group walked towards the Xihe Palace...
When he reached a corner, An Yi sensed a faint murderous aura pervading the surroundings.
He made a gesture, drew the sword in his hand, and quickly became alert with the secret guards behind him.
Xiao Chengjin's eyes flashed, and he protected Jiang Ruo behind him, "Ruoruo, there's an assassin."
"I will protect myself." Jiang Ruo took advantage of this opportunity to quietly take out a sword from the space.
"Come out everyone!" Xiao Chengjin shouted to the people around him.
As soon as he finished speaking, twenty or thirty men in black flew down and surrounded them.
Xiao Chengjin naturally knew that they were secret guards sent by Xiao Junze.
He looked at the men in black and asked in a cold voice, "Are you really going to take action?"
If you take action, there's no going back.
One of the men in black said, "We are only following the orders of our master."
The implication is: Even if we know it is a dead end, we will still take action.
Seeing this, Jiang Ruo drew his sword and whispered, "Let's start fighting. Don't worry about me."
"Okay." A faint smile appeared on Xiao Chengjin's lips.
He drew out the Dragon Soul Sword in his hand and said slowly, "Move."
In an instant, the sword flashed, and murderous intent filled the air...
Although Xiao Chengjin's side has the advantage in numbers, the opponent's fighting strength is also not bad.
Along with the sound of swords clashing, a bloody smell filled the air.
Jiang Ruo looked at the two men in black who were seriously injured but still rushing towards him, and immediately understood.
These people should be coming for me...
Xiao Chengjin smelled the strong smell of blood in the air and frowned slightly.
"Quick victory."
"As you command."
At this moment, Xiao Chengjin seemed to understand their intentions.
These people...are here for his Ruo Ruo.
Xiao Chengjin exuded a terrifying murderous aura...
An Yi and the others knew that Xiao Chengjin was angry, and their swordsmanship became more fierce.
.......
The secret guards sent by Xiao Junze fell to the ground one by one...
Jiang Ruo looked at the corpses lying all over the ground, and her stomach churned.
Xiao Chengjin took the blood-stained sword from Jiang Ruo's hand and handed it to the secret guard beside him.
"Clean this place up." After giving the order, Xiao Chengjin took Jiang Ruo's hand and walked forward.
"Yes, Master." Yu Beichen propped his sword on the ground and spat fiercely, "Bah, you dare to cut me, you are so capable."
Jiang Ruo took a few steps and suddenly thought of the injured people.
"I left them some medicine for their wounds."
Xiao Chengjin nodded, "Give it to me!"
Jiang Ruo took out a few porcelain bottles from the space and handed them to Xiao Chengjin.
After Xiao Chengjin took it, he turned around and walked back.
He handed a few porcelain bottles to the secret guards and sighed softly, "Those who are seriously injured should go down and heal first."
"Yes, Master."
Xiao Chengjin and Jiang Ruo arrived at Xihe Palace covered in blood, and the first thing they saw was Gu Bo with tears streaming down his face.
Uncle Gu wiped his tears and called to several palace servants, "Come and pay your respects to the Emperor and the Empress."
Several busy palace servants put down their work and followed Uncle Gu forward, kneeling and kowtowed, saying, "Your servants respectfully welcome the Emperor and the Empress."
"Everyone, get up!" Xiao Chengjin gave Uncle Gu a light support.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Uncle Gu looked at the blood on the two men and said with a hint of worry, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, are you all right?"
"We are not injured." Jiang Ruo replied with a smile.
"I'm relieved." Uncle Gu breathed a sigh of relief and said respectfully, "I've already asked someone to prepare hot water..."
Xiao Chengjin curled the corners of his lips, "Ruoruo, let's go take a bath."
Uncle Gu couldn't help but burst into tears as he watched the two of them leave hand in hand.
After waiting for so many years, this day has finally come.
Then he wiped his tears and went to the kitchen.
"Hurry up and prepare meals for the two masters."
"Uncle Gu, we understand."
Cold Palace.
Under the provocation of Little Phoenix, Xiao Junze, who had just woken up, fainted from anger again.
The little phoenix standing on the roof deliberately screamed, "Oh, the deposed emperor fainted again."
At this moment, the exhausted Manager Ji could no longer cry.
He looked up at the little phoenix and pleaded with a tired face, "Master Feng, please, please spare my master!"
Alas, the secret guards sent by the Emperor may never return...
The little phoenix blinked and muttered, "Alright, since you're so loyal, I'll let him go for now."
Manager Ji bowed to Little Phoenix to express his gratitude.
"You two, quickly help the emperor and the master into the hall."
The two young eunuchs dejectedly helped Xiao Junze up and staggered into the dilapidated palace.
Little Phoenix looked at Xiao Junze who was being helped away and said sarcastically, "Tsk tsk! You're such a petty person and you still want to be the emperor."
By the way, Xiao Junze’s concubines are also in the cold palace.
I have nothing to do, so I go for a walk.
At this moment, all the concubines were looking at the door of the cold palace with eager eyes.
"Why hasn't the new queen arrived yet?"
"When she comes, we'll beg her and she'll let us out of the palace."
......
The little phoenix landed on the roof and greeted enthusiastically, "Hi, are you all waiting for my Queen sister?"
"If you have anything to say, you can tell Master Feng, and Master Feng will help you convey it."
When the concubines heard the voice, they all looked towards the little phoenix on the roof.
They asked in unison, "Are you telling the truth?"
The little phoenix patted its chest with its wings and said proudly, "I believe in Master Feng. Master Feng never lies."
One of the concubines said, "We want to leave the palace. Could Master Feng tell your sister, the Queen?"
Little Phoenix blinked her eyes and complained in her heart: Keeping so many women in the cold palace must cost my sister a lot of money!
Forget it, just do as they say!
"Don't worry, as long as you promise not to cause trouble outside the palace, the Queen will satisfy your request."
After the little phoenix finished speaking, it spit out a flame.
The concubines have been in the harem for many years, so of course they know what Xiao Fenghuang means.
This flame...is a naked threat!
The concubines waved their hands quickly, "Don't worry, Master Feng, we promise we won't cause any trouble."
"To be honest, we've long had enough of this harem."
Little Phoenix nodded pretentiously, "Oh, Xiao Junze is such a selfish person, he must have caused you a lot of injustice!"
The concubines echoed, "Yes, we have suffered a lot of grievances."
Little Phoenix suddenly remembered that he had not yet told the people what happened in the Golden Palace.
It flapped its wings and said loudly, "You guys should eat and drink. Wait patiently. I will come to see you when I am done."
"I have important things to do, so I'll leave first." The little phoenix said, spread its wings and flew away.
The concubines looked at the somewhat unreliable Little Phoenix and smiled bitterly.
Alas, this will take a long time!
