Stunning Phoenix Emperor

Chapter 259

"It's unreasonable!" Su Hanxiao's eyes flashed with murderous intent. Although he had expected that Mei Guijun's death would break the delicate situation of mutual restraint between the Xuanming Palace and the hidden guards in the palace, he did not expect that Queen Feng's movements would be so quick. .But... just one day and one night.That person really endured it for many years, and finally he couldn't wait any longer.
While talking, Mei Ruoshui had already made tea, brought it over, and said softly: "It's been blowing in the cold wind for a long time, let's warm up first."
"Thank you." Bailiqing held the teacup in his palm.
Su Hanxiao casually picked up the stack of paperwork and flipped through it, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.
"It's windy." Bailiqing said softly, looking out the window.
The heat of the tea slowly floated up, causing a tinge of blood to slowly float on his jade-like face.
"Ruoshui." Su Hanxiao called back.
"Huh?" Mei Ruoshui packed the tea set and sat down beside her.
"When will the inheritance trial of Xuanming Palace start?" Su Hanxiao asked.
"You can do it at any time." Mei Ruoshui said calmly, "There is no specific time for the succession trial. As long as the person being tested is sure, he can mention it at any time. During the trial... life and death are irrelevant."
Hearing the last four words, Su Hanxiao suddenly felt his heart twitch, a dull pain.
"Don't worry." Mei Ruoshui knew what she was thinking, and said again, "It doesn't matter whether it is life or death, but the interior of Xuanming Palace is not so cruel. The elders will not really kill the heir easily, at most they will do it all over again next time."
"But, in this case, the difficulty of the trial should be more difficult than once?" Bailiqing interjected.
"Yes." Mei Ruoshui nodded.
"Sure enough, we still have to pass the test once." Su Hanxiao rubbed his temples with some headaches.
Intellectually, he knew that now was not the time. After all, at that time, Mei Guijun had strictly ordered Mei Ruoshui to train Wanmei Piaoxue to the eighth level, presumably that was the level of strength required to pass the trial.But in the current situation in the capital, because of Mei Guijun's death, she really needs all the power of Xuanming Palace.
Bailiqing and Mei Ruoshui looked at each other, and naturally knew Su Hanxiao's embarrassment.
"Smiling." After a long time, Mei Ruoshui finally said, "Lend me Qin Yue for a few days."
"Ah?" Su Hanxiao heard this, but didn't react for a while.
"Letting Qin Yue accompany me in the fight, he is not a merciful person, under such pressure, it is the best way to improve my swordsmanship." Mei Ruoshui said.
Su Hanxiao thought about it, although she was a little worried, at least the two of them could not really put each other to death, at most they would be injured, and the situation in the capital, if one fails, it would be a catastrophe, whichever is more important, of course she disagrees Be clear.
"It'll be fine." Mei Ruoshui assured.
"I trust you." Su Hanxiao finally nodded emphatically.

Not to mention where Mei Ruoshui and Qin Yue went to try their tricks, Su Hanxiao was staring at a pile of manuscripts left by Mei Ruoshui in a daze.
God knows, she has never practiced inner skills, how can she understand those "cheats" that are obviously not taught from scratch?
A lot of terms related to meridians, acupuncture points, etc. made her feel dizzy, so she finally went to the Imperial Hospital to borrow a few medical books and came back to study slowly. Figured out some ideas.
Of course, in the eyes of outsiders, Her Majesty the Empress Dowager was deeply saddened by the passing of her noble lord, and she was overwhelmed with grief. After locking herself in the palace for three days, when she reappeared, she looked haggard, as if she would fall down when the wind blows.
Both the Empress and the Phoenix Empress were startled, they came over to have a look, comforted them for a while, and rewarded many treasures, but this time they did not reward the beauties.
Su Hanxiao dealt with it calmly, but secretly sneered in his heart.
Although the queen has a sentimental look, it is not strong. Apart from Mei Hanxiang's status as the lord of the Xuanming Palace, there may be love between the two, but the queen of a country, the three thousand in the harem, even if there is love, it is too thin.As for Queen Feng, she is indeed the number one acting master. Even if Su Hanxiao tried to find fault with that kind of grief, she really couldn't find any faults.
However, in the past three days, even though he was in such a mess, the trajectory of the internal force in his body was still roughly clear.
Usually, you don't need to be too deliberate, the true energy will naturally form a cycle, and what she needs to master is just the method of free use. It seems that when Mei Ruoshui comes back, she can start learning Wanmei Piaoxue swordsmanship.
By the time Mei Guijun's funeral was over, the New Year's Eve was approaching.
The spies who came back from Southern Chu have already found out that the so-called assassin is really a product of the internal power struggle in Southern Chu. Su Hanxiao thought about it for a while, and then directly reported the incident and confession to the Queen. As for how the Queen should deal with it, She will not participate in the cooperation. The internal affairs of other countries and assassins are involved. It is too sensitive for the identity of the princess, so avoid it if you can.
And the gold medal bestowed by the emperor was exactly as Su Hanxiao expected, the queen didn't mention it, and she was happy to keep it and not hand it in.Regardless of whether the empress was out of guilt towards Mei Guijun or something else, leaving a gold medal would be very useful in the future.
The weather is getting colder and colder, and the snow that has fallen for five or six days has piled up, and the world is also covered with a layer of plain white, as if to wear mourning for the dead.
Su Hanxiao looked at the snow on the glazed tiles opposite, took a deep breath of the cold air, and ordered the guards to post messages to Shu Jie and Yuan Hong, after thinking about it, he sent someone to the Marshal's Mansion to inform Lan Chenyan.
Although it is very impolite for the empress dowager to entertain an old friend, a man who has a marriage contract is present, but there were not many people who knew about Lan Chenyan's deeds at Mingyue Pass. Good story, I believe Lan Saiying will not object.What's more, Lan Chenyan has been locked up at home for a long time, and there is no reason to visit her all the time, she really misses her a little.
