Chapter 208 The Ninth Emperor
Qiqi strode like flying, sent Xia Ze's body into the imperial study, and then exited the door.

The imperial study room is open, and the dojo has already been set up.

Countless little Taoist priests are circling in reverse along the imperial study room.

He was muttering in his hands, but he didn't know what he was muttering.

However, candles with thick arms are indispensable.

Bright yellow talisman paper is also indispensable.

Seasonal fresh fruits and dishes newly brought into the palace were laid out on the table slowly.

Xia Ze lay down in front of the altar, inside a crystal coffin.

The ears were filled with the sound of this strange incantation.

Sitting behind the translucent bead curtain, the national teacher could only see a rough outline of him.

It seems that he is closing his eyes and meditating.

At the gate, a gloomy wind blows, making people shudder, Commander Shui said: "Only after 49 days on July [-], the national teacher will be able to leave the customs, guard this place carefully."

She was stunned.

Commander Shui said: "You are in charge of guarding the national division, I need to go back to Nanzhao."

Goose Mountain has long been inexplicably bombed.

What else can he do when he goes back.

Just as she was about to say something, countless soldiers and horses rushed towards the other side of the palace road, looking at their posture, it seemed as if they were going to swallow them alive.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly straightened her back.

"Ze'er...Ze'er...my son, you can't die, wake me up!" The crying person was the Empress Dowager Changsun.

She was wearing a bright yellow cloak, galloping over like a cloud.

Jumping off the horse, he was already crying.

She staggered into the imperial study, her eyes red and swollen like peaches.

She kicked open the bead curtain and grabbed the skirt of the national teacher: "You!"

She yelled loudly: "You killed the emperor, you sinister Taoist priest who specializes in deception, you kill the emperor, you give back my Ze'er, you give back my Ze'er..."

She was crying loudly.

It was even harsher than the bell that just rang.

Today's longevity banquet, she thought that the emperor was just messing around like before.

She thought that the longevity pill was just an excuse made up by the national teacher, and it could not be true.

Even if Concubine De was refined into elixir, even if the Eleventh Prince was pecked clean by vultures, she still felt that they just deserved it.

These uneasy royal relatives should have been eradicated.

With the help of the national teacher, she was even relieved.

It's a pity... Seeing the emperor lying in the crystal coffin at this moment, I just realized how ridiculous everything is.

She cried until her heart was broken, but the national teacher threw away her hand, like throwing away the dirtiest straw sandals in the world.

He stood up coldly and looked at the queen mother.

"Your Majesty has become an immortal, ranked among the immortals, and was conferred the title of Nine Yin Saint Immortals. He will ensure the peace of the Great Xia Kingdom forever and the prosperity of a hundred generations. The Empress Dowager should be happy, how crying and crying has ruined the Taoism of the Saint Immortals."

"Shut up, you lunatic! If you hadn't lied to the emperor, how could the emperor listen to you..." The queen mother grabbed her and tried to break the face of the national teacher.

The national teacher escaped.

He said coldly: "The queen mother is invited to leave the palace. The journey of the holy immortal is magnanimous, and women are not allowed to mess around."

He glanced at the people at the door.

The water guard jumped out, grabbed the Queen Mother's arm, and dragged her out of the imperial study.

"Stop!" Outside the imperial study room, on a war horse, a man with white beard and hair shouted loudly, "This king is here, who dares to act recklessly!"

Qiqi's eyes flashed, but she didn't recognize this person.

But the queen mother burst into tears with a "wow": "My lord... save Ze'er, the most beloved child of the late emperor is Ze'er, and he can't die for no reason. You are the younger brother of the late emperor and Ze'er's relative." Uncle, you must make the decision for Ze'er!"

It was only then that Qiqi found out that this person was actually the half-brother of Emperor Wuwei, King An Xia Yun who had been stationed on the western border all year round.

Xia Yun nodded, with the long sword above the head of the whole country, he said loudly: "Catch this demon way and save the emperor!"

A group of soldiers behind him immediately drew their swords out of their sheaths and followed his horse.

Seeing that it was a fight.

"Leading troops into the palace without authorization will be punished as treason according to the law. Doesn't King An know the rules of the palace?" Behind the soldiers, someone spoke from a distance.

Qiqi looked over and saw Dongfang Xiu's indifferent face.

Behind him, many soldiers followed.

King An yelled angrily: "Little Huangkou, don't think that this king doesn't know your origin. This king brought troops into the palace because it was King Qin's act. Why did you bring troops into the palace?"

Dongfang Xiu sneered, jumped out with one step, stepped on the horse's head, and chased after him in just a few steps.

He was a latecomer, passed over King An's head, stood beside the guards Qiqi and Shui, blocked the door of the imperial study, and shouted: "The Nine Yin Saints have already explained that the Ninth Emperor is here among the people, and ordered me Wait until you leave the palace to welcome the new ruler. You...don't dream!"

Old Wang An's face was flushed: "Wu, that kid, guess at my king's good intentions randomly, and eat my sword!"

After saying that, he killed him fiercely.

Immediately there was chaos outside the imperial study room.

Qiqi hurriedly led the Imperial Forest Army to meet him, protecting the Imperial Study Room from attack.

The battle was stalemate, the queen mother stood among the crowd and shouted: "Don't fight anymore, it's important to save the emperor first, come here, send the imperial doctor quickly..."

Of course, no one paid any attention to her.

King An's eyes were red with anxiety, and he was fighting Dongfang Xiu to the death.

Qiqi turned her head and was grabbed by her: "You... Hurry up and send the imperial physician to save the emperor, hurry up, Aijia orders you, quickly go to the Imperial Medical Office to send the order to the imperial physician, the longevity pill must be poison, that's why you died of poison Your majesty, hurry up..."

Qiqi looked at her weeping face coldly, calmly threw away her hand, and said disdainfully: "The saint is already in the class of immortals, and has been conferred the title of Nine Yin Saint Immortal, don't ruin his immortal journey and disturb everyone else. Xia Sheng and Shi Taiping."

The queen mother was shocked, and finally couldn't help crying "Woo la", "You are all crazy... You are crazy... Come on, come on..."

The battle is stalemate.

Dongfang Xiu and the water guard are not vegetarians.

Soon, King An was defeated.

"Let's gossip the people and murder the emperor, disturb the order of the royal family, and fear that the world will be chaotic, and you will not end well. If you kill the emperor, this king will confiscate your family and exterminate your family..."

He shouted, his white beard fluttering in the wind.

No one paid any attention to him, Dongfangxiu cut his hands behind his back and threw him to the Imperial Forest Army.

Immediately someone took him away.

Ready to go to prison.

There was silence outside the royal study.

The queen mother had already fainted from crying, and collapsed beside the palace road, no one took care of her.

Qiqi looked at the dojo that was still going on in the imperial study room, and suddenly her eyelids twitched.

The national teacher turned his head: "Notify the six ministers, discuss state affairs as usual, and enjoy the power of Zhu's approval. In addition, immediately find the ninth emperor and welcome him into the palace."

When did the national teacher actually make such a decree?

However, no one disobeyed his will.

Soon, the imperial study room was emptied of people outside.

Dongfang Xiu had already led the troops out of the palace.

Qiqi stood at the door, looking at the specious figure behind the bead curtain, as if she was watching a play.

This scene has nothing to do with her.

She shook her head not to be careless, and became alert.

Almost, the identity of the person behind the bead curtain has been confirmed.

The person who has made countless twists and turns.

It has appeared in her dreams countless times.

However, within a few days, calm was basically restored in the palace.

The six ministers governed the court and discussed state affairs.

Not controversial for now.

In the inner garden of the palace, the concubines of various palaces walked around frequently, trying to get more news.

However, no news leaked from the Imperial Study Room.

The national teacher has to wait for the ninth emperor to enter the palace.

The ceremony for the emperor's ascension to immortality has not yet been prepared.

At the end of the month, the weather was cloudy and cold, with the first snow in winter.

Outside the imperial study room, there was a blanket of silence.

Xia Ze's corpse was still lying in the crystal coffin, neither decayed nor rotted, lifelike.

The national teacher is still sitting behind the bead curtain, and many people have not eaten or eaten.

Feeling something was wrong, Qiqi couldn't resist entering the door to check, but was stopped by Daotong before she reached the bead curtain.

Do not enter.

She had no choice but to guard the imperial study, not daring to be careless.

It was the water guard who left within a few days.

I heard that they are going back to Goose Mountain.

But Qiqi doesn't know what he needs to do when he goes back to Eshan.

For a moment, the entire palace looked peaceful, as if Xia Ze had never ascended to immortality.

No one knew who was manipulating everything behind this calmness.

Keep everything in the Great Xia Kingdom as usual.

After more than a month, the imperial palace was under martial law, and foreign officials were not allowed to enter at all.

Qiqi was planning to get news from her parents, but Shuang'er actually begged to see her outside the palace gate.

Now, the national teacher is in retreat, Xia Ze is promoted to immortality, and the commander of the Imperial Forest Army is not around, everything is actually under Qiqi's control.

The Imperial Forest Army reported Shuang'er's request to see her, and she agreed after a little thought.

After waiting for a short time, I saw Shuang'er coming.

The deliberately made up face is abnormally fair, and the beauty has a different taste.

It is no longer the little maid in the imperial dining room.

Looking at each other, Qiqi saw the intention of coming from her eyes.

"Princess Shuang'er asks to see the national teacher, I wonder if the national teacher can meet?" She was gentle and pretty standing under the steps, not taking a second look at Qiqi.

Qiqi's eyes flashed, but she didn't make a sound.

Shuang'er raised her head slightly, and smiled faintly: "Shuang'er just wanted to ask the emperor's elder brother about his ascension to immortality, and he didn't have any malicious intentions. I also...wanted to see the Empress Dowager, and talk to her about family matters."

Her expression is humble, as a princess of a country, she is so polite to a soldier.

If it were someone else, he would have answered her questions long ago.

But Qiqi lowered her head and rejected her.

Just stood there, neither of them said much.Shuang'er's gaze was always on the national teacher behind the bead curtain.

She looked at it for a long time, and suddenly said: "This little brother's official position is not small, but it doesn't seem to be big enough. I have a message here, which can make you rich and powerful for the rest of your life. Would you like to tell me about it?"

Qiqi's eyes trembled, puzzled.

Shuang'er smiled and looked at her.

Because of the disguise, because it was a military uniform, and because the two of them were standing outside the power center of the Great Xia Kingdom, Shuang'er failed to recognize her.

She nodded.

Suddenly, I was a little curious about what Shuang'er was going to say.

Shuang'er took a step forward, moved closer, and said in a low voice: "My princess has the family of Princess Xiaoyang's parents and soldiers. If you take their old couple, it will not be difficult to catch Princess Xiaoyang."

She smiled slightly and added: "Princess Xiaoyang has lived and died for a long time, but she is still alive. Once the news comes out, the whole Daxia will be shocked. If you threaten her parents, you will be able to catch her. Maybe... Can capture King Xiaoyang."

She tilted her head: "You said, is it rich and powerful?"

It is indeed a splash of wealth.

Regardless of Xia Ze's attitude towards King Xiaoyang.In the imperial court, those who witnessed Feixue in June would definitely not want to see King Xiaoyang himself again.

If Jiang Qiqi's parents are caught, then Jiang Qiqi is caught, and finally King Xiaoyang is caught.

No matter who you are, you can't be crowned king or minister, at least you can live your life without worrying about food and clothing.

Live a life where you can do whatever you want, and don’t do whatever you don’t want to do.

Not many people in the entire Great Xia Kingdom know about such a secret.

Shuang'er's face was flushed, beautiful and delicate, and I don't know if it was from the sun.

Qiqi looked at her coldly, and wanted to speak but didn't know what to say.

After staring at each other for a long time, Shuang'er asked in confusion, "Brother, would you like to be so wealthy?"

Qiqi said: "I don't want to."

It caused Shuang'er's complexion to change dramatically.

"You... what's your name?" Shuang'er refused to let it go.

Qiqi smiled, her tone was cold: "Qi Shuang."

Shuang'er didn't recognize this person, so she couldn't help but froze on the spot.

Qiqi stretched out her hand to block her way, and said disdainfully: "The princess is bothering you. But in today's world, there are quite a few people who know that the princess is still alive. No, some people saw her come back from Nanzhao and brought her brother with her. Your little gossip, the national teacher has already figured it out."

Shuang'er was shocked.

Qiqi's eyes turned cold, and she took a step forward, facing her directly: "Tell me, where are you imprisoning the Jiang couple? If you make it clear, I might be able to pass it on for you."
