Chapter 2: First Meeting with the Ministers
When Luo Weiqing woke up from his coma, it was already two hours later and the sky had darkened. He felt groggy before he even opened his eyes. He moved his body uncomfortably and instantly felt a touch of cold light. He woke up and his body stiffened. Please remember our website
The room was very close, and he couldn't hear any other sound except his own breathing, but his intuition told him that there was someone else here, and that person was looking at him at this moment.
She stood up, a little weak, but still gritted her teeth and sat up, then suddenly knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, I am terrified."
Without looking, he knew who that cold look came from.
"Get up." Putting down the book in her hand, Qianhe Liyou said in a flat tone. Just now, during the time when Luo Weiqing was still unconscious, she found a few books to read in this bedroom. The contents of the books were similar to the Classic of Mountains and Seas, which she found quite interesting.
"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty." Luo Weiqing stood up, but his body was extremely weak. Even though he tried hard to hold it in, he still swayed unsteadily.
Qianhe Liyou looked at the pale face and frowned slightly.
"Come here"
The door was gently pushed open, and Feng Ying, the emperor's personal attendant, walked in and knelt at the door.
"Your Majesty, what do you want?" Feng Ying is in her thirties this year. She is a maid who has watched Qian Heliyou grow up. But even so, she still doesn't understand this master she has watched grow up. She is also afraid of her master from the bottom of her heart. In other words, no one in the entire dynasty is not afraid of this tyrannical emperor.
"Ask the imperial physician to prepare some blood-replenishing medicine and send it over as soon as possible." Feeding "food" is something that many zombies like to do. She once fed several humans, but they all committed suicide in the end because they couldn't bear it. She lost interest in it then. After all, it is difficult for normal humans to tolerate becoming food for zombies, and this refers not only physically but also mentally. She has seen some zombies' "food" unable to withstand the stimulation and become crazy.
"yes"
Feng Ying retreated, Qian Heliyou stood up and walked towards Luo Weiqing. Luo Weiqing stood there at a loss, with his head slightly lowered, his mind full of thoughts.
"Do you know what happened?" Qian Heliyou said in a calm tone, but his fingers had already covered the teeth marks on Luo Weiqing's neck. There were only two very faint teeth marks there now. The amazing recovery would never disappear. For zombies, no other zombie was allowed to taste her food. These tooth marks were the proof of possession.
"I don't quite understand this." Luo Weiqing said hesitantly. He only knew that the emperor bit him, and then he felt the blood flowing out very quickly, and the obvious sucking action on his neck made him a little frightened, but he was not sure.
"You really don't understand? It tastes very good." Qianhe Liyou pointed it out without hesitation. She was never afraid of others knowing her own affairs. She always believed in one sentence: in the face of unshakable strength, all conspiracies and tricks are useless. Even if these people really wanted to do something to her, what could they do?
Qianhe Liyou looked at the man in front of her. He was taller than her. Although he lowered his head, she could still see the fear that flashed across his face. Although he tried his best to conceal it, it still could not escape her eyes. She had seen this kind of expression many times, but at this moment she felt it was a bit regrettable. As for what it was a pity, she didn't want to think about it.
"Your Majesty" Luo Weiqing knelt on the ground again. He was afraid and confused. He didn't understand why the queen, who had always been cruel, would become so weird. Why would the queen, who had always hated him so much, be so close to him? Although this closeness made him want to escape in fear, what did the queen want?
The room suddenly became unusually quiet. Qian Heliyou stopped talking. She just looked at the man kneeling on the ground with dark eyes. She paused for a moment, then turned and left. She wanted to go outside the hall to see that the zombies liked the night and the slightly cool breeze under the moonlight.
"Your Highness, long live the emperor!"
As soon as she walked out of the door, Qianhe Liyou saw people kneeling on the ground outside the door. She looked one by one and found that there were concubines in the harem and ministers of the court. After thinking about it, she understood one or two things. One was that she was sick and unconscious, and the other was that she locked up that evil concubine as soon as she woke up. She also kept the queen in the bedroom and didn't know what she did. These people all had the same idea.
"Something happened." Qian Heliyou looked at everyone coldly, with a hint of subtle sarcasm on his face.
"Your Majesty, you are awake. How are you?" The first person to speak was a man kneeling in the front. He was dressed in a simple blue shirt. Even when kneeling on the ground, he did not look humble at all. He was as proud and self-admiring as a pine tree. He was Qin Ning, known as Concubine Ning, a man from the underworld. The concubine once said that the queen pretended to be noble because of her love for her, but she never said a word about him in front of this truly noble and arrogant man. One reason was because of the emperor's love for this man, and the other was because this man was so arrogant that he did not take anyone seriously. When he entered the palace, he told everyone not to mess with him, otherwise he would be killed without mercy.
"Yeah." Qian Heliyou responded lightly, her mind was full of memories about this man. It turned out that this man named Qin Ning had saved her soul, and this soul was fascinated by Qin Ning's charm. It was just that Qin Ning had no feelings for her at all. The reason why she entered the palace was also an agreement between the two. She helped him escape the constraints of the family and married him as a concubine, but she could not force him. If her soul used to hate Luo Weiqing and doted on the demon concubine, then she loved and hated this man, because until now she still hadn't got him.
"You guys, if you have something to say, just say it. If not, just go away." She wanted to look at the night, but if someone was upset, she would not hesitate to take some time to deal with it.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report." Kneeling in the third row, dressed in military uniform, was none other than Situ Changqin, the mother of the evil concubine Situ Hongyu.
"Hmph, go ahead."
"I dare to ask the emperor, what crime did I commit and why was I imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison?" Situ Changqin was the commander-in-chief of the Qianhe Dynasty army. He held military power and had 500,000 soldiers under his command, accounting for half of the entire army. If there was anyone who was not afraid of the emperor, this person must be one of them. Otherwise, he would not dare to stand among the ministers and ask the emperor rudely in a questioning tone.
"How dare you, Situ Changqin, is this the tone you use when talking to me?" Qian Heli You shouted coldly, his expression of pretending to be unhappy was very obvious, and his words were actually full of obvious threats, which made all the ministers tremble all over, and they all felt that a storm was coming.
The Situ family is the first family of the Qianhe Dynasty. Under the protection of Situ Hongyu, almost everyone in the Situ family is an official. It can be said that if one person succeeds, everyone in the family will be promoted. Moreover, these people have lived up to Situ Hongyu's care. It can be said that the Situ family holds one-third of the power of the Qianhe Dynasty. The emperor was extremely afraid of them, but because he doted on Situ Hongyu and was not interested in government affairs, he had never had any major conflicts with the Situ family. However, he never thought that today the emperor would actually put Situ Hongyu in the sky prison and loudly scold Situ Changqin in front of all the ministers. Smart people almost immediately knew that something was going to happen.
“I dare not, but my beloved son Hongyu has always been well-behaved and is deeply loved by your Majesty. Even if he did something that displeased you in a moment of confusion, I hope that you can consider Hongyu’s careful service to you and the Situ family’s loyalty to you and can bypass me. The environment in the prison is bad and Hongyu has been weak since childhood. I dare to ask Your Majesty to show mercy and release Hongyu.” The emperor is the emperor after all. Even though Situ Changqin was unwilling, she still avoided it in front of the ministers and did not want to have a bad reputation. However, her words were still threatening. She had been arrogant for too long. Apart from the title of emperor, she did not take the emperor seriously at all. Her Situ family was more powerful than the emperor and had 500,000 elite soldiers. Even if she wanted to take the throne, it was not impossible.
Thinking of this, Situ Changqin's expression became even colder. He stopped kneeling on the ground and slowly stood up, looking at Qian Heli You in front of him with extremely deep eyes.
