Fengming Tianxia's Concubine Empress

Chapter 111 What Happened

Back in the small courtyard where she lived, Su Mei stopped in the courtyard and said to Su Yuqing who was behind her, "Brother, you have been tired all day today, go to rest early today." After finishing speaking, she went straight to her room go.

Su Yuqing looked at the back of her leaving, and suddenly had a feeling of taking her away immediately, as if as long as she returned to nature, all the unhappiness would dissipate, as if only those mountains, rivers, and beautiful scenery would not sad.

With a low sigh, he turned and walked to his room.

Su Mei returned to the room and sat quietly by the bed, thinking about what happened in Fengxianju today.

She remembered that the man in Tsing Yi once said that the Dragon Feather Kingdom was no match for the Shanghuang Kingdom at all, and that the country would be destroyed sooner or later.

She still remembered that the man in Tsing Yi said that Dragon Feather Kingdom had lost two cities in a row since it developed with Shanghuang Kingdom.

She kept thinking about what the man said, and the more she thought about it, the more upset she felt.What happened today was so sudden that she didn't know that such a thing had happened during this period of time.What's more, she didn't expect that her princess identity would be leaked, and a war between the two countries would be provoked, causing the people of Li to be in dire straits. This was the last thing she wanted to see.But now, even if the emperor of Longyu Kingdom told the whole world about her real identity, saying that she was actually his illegitimate daughter and a real princess, no one would believe her.

Dragon Feather Kingdom Palace.

The news of successive defeats that came continuously before the battle made Yu Mingqi very angry. He sat on the dragon chair with a gloomy face, and his eyes were sharp and frightening.His gloomy face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, and the coldness that burst out from the eyes under the eyelashes was comparable to the ice in the extreme north. It was so cold that it seemed to kill people. As if frozen.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the entire Qianhe Hall was icy cold and frightening. Everyone stood there tremblingly, motionless, not daring to make any noise, let alone speak, for fear that if they were not careful, they would offend Longyan. Invite yourself to kill yourself.

The commander in front is the current Crown Prince Yu Haomo, who is also well-versed in poetry and art of war. If even he can't win the battle, then who else can take on this important task?Therefore, several ministers looked at me and I looked at you, and they all wisely chose to keep their mouths shut, but how did they know that what Yu Mingqi was going to talk about was not about the war, but about the nasty things they did.

Looking at the lazy expressions on their faces, coupled with the report from the secret guard just now, Yu Mingqi was even more angry. The few ministers in front of him actually didn't know what to say in the mansion, that's fine. , but they dared to deduct the military salary privately and let the soldiers in front go to the battlefield hungry. This is really abhorrent!

Yu Mingqi swept the cheeks of several ministers coldly, his voice was icy cold, "What do you want to say about this memorial?" Yu Mingqi threw the memorial in his hand at the feet of those few people.

Those few people saw the four big characters "withholding military pay" revealed on the memorial, and trembling all over, they hurriedly knelt down on the ground and shouted in unison: "The emperor calm down, the emperor and his ministers have been wronged!"

Seeing them dying without repentance, Yu Mingqi became more and more angry as he thought about it, he couldn't help but slapped the dragon case suddenly, the anger in his eyes seemed to be able to spew out fire, frightening the ministers standing below and hurriedly lying on the ground. On the ground, tightly against the ground.

"Injustice? I think it's me who should be called injustice!" He just heard him snort coldly, and then said: "The enemy is in front, and you are drinking and having fun at home, and entertaining guests. I, Longyu Kingdom owns you trash, it's really The misfortune of the country! Come, drag them down to me, and behead them one by one for the public to see!"

"Your Majesty, please forgive me!" Several ministers begged for mercy.

The sound of their begging for mercy gradually faded away, Yu Mingqi sat on the dragon chair with a livid face, his eyes were fierce and sharp.

How could Yu Mingqi give them a chance to survive? The soldiers in front were fighting bloody battles, and no one knew how many people they had sacrificed, but these moths in the court were looking for fun in the mansion all day long, how could he possibly Will these moths stay?

Today's Dragon Feather Kingdom is no longer what it used to be, and now there are no generals in the court, which makes him even more anxious.Although the crown prince Yu Haomo is familiar with military books, after all, it is only on paper and has never been practiced at all. How could he possibly win the battle?
Seeing Yu Mingqi's increasingly livid face, Eunuch Li, the chief eunuch standing aside, was very anxious, but he couldn't say anything.

Connecticut City.

What happened yesterday was too sudden, she was not mentally prepared at all, and she did not expect that things would turn out like this, but she became a sinner through the ages.After returning from Fengxianju yesterday, Su Mei locked herself in her room and didn't eat dinner.She just sat by the bed all night.

Early in the morning, Su Mei came to the courtyard and sat quietly on the stone bench with a dazed expression.

When Su Yuqing came over, she saw Su Mei in men's clothes, sitting quietly on the stone bench, looking very tired.

Su Mei raised her head when she heard footsteps, forced a smile and said, "Brother."

"Little sister, why are you dressed like this today?" Su Yuqing smiled and came over to sit down.

"Morning brother, I want to go out today."

Su Yuqing was taken aback for a moment, obviously she didn't expect Su Mei to say that she wanted to go out when she opened her mouth. It seems that what happened yesterday has dealt a heavy blow to her.

Su Yuqing smiled and said: "Okay, you can't stay in this small courtyard all the time, or you will be bored. Wherever you want to go, brother will accompany you."

"Okay, thank you, brother." Su Mei planned to go alone, but seeing Su Yuqing's irresistible gaze, and she was not familiar with this place, she had no choice but to nod in response.

Throughout the ages, the teahouse has always been a place loved by everyone, and it is also the best place for everyone to chat, so the teahouse is the most suitable place to inquire about news, and only there, Su Mei may be able to find out what she most wants to know.After all, there was a mixed bag of fish and dragons, and there were everyone there. Most of the news and gossip came from the teahouse. Therefore, Su Mei came to the door of the teahouse under the guidance of Su Yuqing.

"Little sister, this is the most famous teahouse in our Kangzhou city. The tea here is the best in the entire Kangzhou city, and the dim sum in the building is even better." Su Yuqing stood still and looked up at the Tea House in front of her. Said softly.

"En." Su Mei nodded in response, then looked up at the teahouse, and walked in.

Seeing her so anxious, a clear look flashed in Su Yuqing's eyes. It seems that he guessed right. The reason why Su Mei came to this teahouse was indeed to inquire about the news. Wouldn't it be good to ask him directly about the country's war?Does he know no less than these people in the market?Is there anything else?Could it be to inquire about Princess Chaohua?Thinking of this, Su Yuqing's heart was shocked. You must know that Princess Chaohua, who was wearing a red wedding dress, was buried with his own hands. If she knew that her master, Princess Chaohua, was dead, would she forgive him for not telling him about it?Will he call him big brother again?

Su Yuqing hesitated and followed in.

What the two of them didn't know was that when they stepped into this street, they were already watched by the man in Tsing Yi from yesterday. Watching them walk into the teahouse, the man in Tsing Yi showed a sinister smile on his face, and then quietly left.

Su Mei didn't choose to go to the private room, but randomly found an empty seat in the hall and sat down, and Su Yuqing naturally sat down too.

"Two guests, what can I order?" The waiter in the shop hurried over to greet two young men with extraordinary bearing when they came in and sat down.

Su Mei was thinking about something, and she didn't hear what the waiter said at all. She only saw Su Yuqing smiled slightly, and said to the waiter, "A pot of Lapsang souchong, and a plate of dim sum."

"Okay, here it is for you."

"What are you thinking about so preoccupied?" Su Yuqing asked with a smile, her eyes full of doting.

"Brother, it's nothing. By the way, what tea did you order?" Su Mei said calmly.

"Brother doesn't know what kind of tea you like to drink, so I ordered the best tea in Kangzhou City on my own, Lapsang Souchong, plus a plate of special snacks."

As soon as Su Yuqing finished speaking, the waiter came over with tea.

"Excuse me, two guest officers. This is the Lapsang Souchong you ordered, as well as special dim sum. Please take it easy, both of you." Said the waiter and backed away.

Su Yuqing picked up the teapot one step ahead of Su Mei, and said softly, "Come on, try it, and see how it tastes?"

The moment the tea was poured out, Su Mei smelled the fresh tea fragrance, which reminded her of the scene of drinking tea in the teahouse in Cangyue City half a year ago.

Things are different, and now the two countries are fighting each other.

She sighed almost inaudibly in her heart, but she never thought that Su Yuqing would still notice it.

"What's wrong? Why does your face look so haggard?" Su Yuqing asked with concern.

Su Mei subconsciously stretched out her hand to her cheek, and said with a faint smile, "Maybe it's because I didn't sleep well last night."

Su Yuqing smiled knowingly, "Girls should pay more attention to rest."

"Well, I see, big brother." Su Mei said with a slightly red face.She remembered that in her previous life, whenever she had dark circles on her eyes, her elder brother Tang Feiyu would say the same about her.

In fact, the reason why she came to the teahouse was not only to learn about the situation of the war between the two countries, but also to see if she could find out about Yan Cui. After all, if Yan Cui knew about the war between the two countries, she would definitely come out to inquire about her news.

"The latest news is that the Dragon Feather Kingdom fought against the Shanghuang Kingdom and lost two cities in a row. The Emperor of the Dragon Feather Kingdom was furious and beheaded several important court officials."

"This is really an anecdote throughout the ages. It's the first time I heard that this person who lost the battle and beheaded the minister."

"You are so ignorant. Those ministers who were beheaded were all people who took advantage of the battle ahead to have fun in the manor and deducted their salary. You said, those soldiers fought with their lives in the front. But the people in the rear are so pretentious, they are really self-inflicted, and it is no wonder that Longyu Kingdom is about to perish, it is really unfortunate for the court."

"Didn't you send the prince to fight? Why did you lose so badly?"

"You don't know yet, this prince is just a display. It's really a waste of reading so many military books. When it's time to use it, he really can't do anything. He sacrificed so many soldiers for nothing."

The more Su Mei listened, the more frightened she became. She never expected that she would bring such a catastrophe to Longyu Kingdom. Although she was not responsible for all this, it was her existence that gave Shanghuang Kingdom a reason to raise troops .

Suddenly, a person's next words brought her back to reality.

"I heard that the emperor of the Dragon Feather Kingdom is still secretly sending people to look for Princess Zhaohua. After all, no one is alive or dead. I really don't know if Princess Zhaohua is dead or not?"

"Fell off such a high cliff, how could you still be alive?"

Su Mei stood up abruptly and walked out the door.
