Chapter 191 The Empress Dowager Arrives

"There is something to say in the Ai family!" As soon as Emperor Jingxuan finished speaking, a powerful voice came from. Everyone turned around and saw the Empress Dowager wearing a palace outfit, the nine-tailed golden phoenix above the purple gold crown was lifelike. The golden tassel in the phoenix's mouth swayed rhythmically with her steps. On Feng Qiuhuang's golden hairpin, the blood-red gems were shining by the sun, and the light and shadow were everywhere.

She leaned on the dragon-headed stick personally given by the late emperor in one hand, and held a brocade box in the other hand, and entered the Golden Palace with her head held high and her chest raised.

When Emperor Jingxuan saw the dragon-headed stick in her hand, he frowned slightly. As the first female general in Nanling, she risked her life to rescue the late emperor from the siege of the Xifan rebels when she quelled the Xifan Rebellion. After saving the late emperor with her own blood, the late emperor returned to the court and gave it to her.

This dragon-headed stick is more effective than a gold medal for avoiding death. If you want to die, it is more sharp than a Shangfang sword. It can be loyal and kind, kill treacherous and slanderous, and beat the foolish and incompetent leader.

But the Empress Dowager never brought it out. Today she brought it to the Golden Palace, and ignored the Nanling ancestral system and women were not allowed to interfere in politics.

"Mother!" Emperor Jingxuan frowned and a deep voice, got up from the golden chair, and looked down at the empress dowager from a high place.

"The emperor does not need to be angry, and the ministers do not need to tell the Ai family that women are not allowed to interfere in politics!" The empress dowager glanced at Emperor Jingxuan, then turned around and rushed to the ministers who were already stunned.

"If you still remember the dragon-headed stick in the hands of the Ai family, you should understand that the Ai family is coming today on behalf of the late emperor!" She raised the dragon-headed stick in her hand and glanced sharply. The ministers who wanted to move out of the Nanling State system to persuade the Empress Dowager to return to the palace immediately stopped thinking.

The empress dowager turned around again, looked at Emperor Jingxuan, and said in a deep voice, "Emperor, the Ai family is here today to rehabilitate one person!" As she said that, she stretched forward with her hand holding the brocade box.

Emperor Jingxuan looked at the Empress Dowager with a calm eyebrows. She came on behalf of the late emperor, so today, she was determined to embarrass him? He is now the Lord of Nanling!

He narrowed his eyes and glanced at Tianaka. Tanaka understood and hurriedly ran down the steps, leaned down and bowed his head, took the brocade box from the empress dowager with both hands, ran up the steps, opened the brocade box, and presented it to Emperor Jingxuan.

Emperor Jingxuan slowly withdrew his gaze and looked at the brocade box in Tianaka's hand. There was only one book in it, which was a little yellow but very thick.

He reached out, took it out of the brocade box, slowly opened it, looking through page by page, the more he looked, the ugly the look became. At the end, his hands trembled and his face turned pale.

He shivered, put away the booklet, looked up at the Queen Mother, "Where did the Queen Mother get this thing?"

"Imperial Mausoleum!"

Emperor Jingxuan shook his body and frowned, "My mother has activated the imperial tomb mechanism?"

The Empress Dowager shook her head, "You forgot that since the founding of the country, every generation of kings will select the ministers of the regent, Onmyoji, and Emperor's rank, but there is also a Night Dragon Supervisor!"

Emperor Jingxuan's body shook again. Yelongjian, as the name suggests, is the person who monitors the prince's journey. His power is even greater than the dragon-headed stick in the hands of the Censorate or even the empress dowager. This person can directly impeach the emperor, reject the emperor's unreasonable decisions, and have the right to participate in the royal secret affairs.

In addition, this person's identity is mysterious, and only the previous monarch knows. If the monarch has no fault, this person's identity will be a mystery for the rest of his life and will not be stopped until death.

But now that the Empress Dowager said this, Emperor Jingxuan understood that the Empress Dowager was Ye Longjian selected by the late emperor. She had the right to participate in politics, had the right to enter and exit the imperial tomb, knew the secrets of the royal family, had the right to impeach the king and reject the monarch's decision.

He looked at the empress dowager and seemed to have no idea about her. The kind-hearted empress dowager on weekdays was so thrilling today. He forgot that she was a female general who had been born and died with the late emperor and wiped out the rebels. She was the female Rakshasa who was frightened by the West.

"The Ai family didn't want to participate, but just wanted to enjoy their old age in the harem. When they arrived in the nine springs, they could explain to your father. But to this day, the Ai family couldn't stand it anymore. Although the two imperial masters had already passed away, I hope the emperor will take this matter to heart, for the Nanling Mountains and the people of Nanling!"

"After today, the Ai family will invite him to Ganbao Temple, where he worships Buddha and recites scriptures, prays for the emperor, and prays for my Nanling!"

After saying that, the Empress Dowager squatted, gently placed the dragon-headed stick in her hand on the ground of the Golden Palace, stood up again, took a deep look at Emperor Jingxuan, and turned around and walked out of the hall gate.

Emperor Jingxuan was still stunned. He stared at the dragon-headed stick lying on the golden palace, and looked at the empress dowager's back as she left. For the first time, he knelt on both knees and leaned over and kowtowed, "Son Master, I respectfully send my mother to my mother!"

"While waiting for the Empress Dowager to see you off!" The ministers also knelt down and bowed down to kowtow.

The Empress Dowager left the Golden Palace.

After a moment, Emperor Jingxuan raised his head again, and the empress dowager was gone. He stretched out a hand and Tanaka immediately stepped forward to help him up.

"The Queen Mother is leaving, let's get up!" he said.

"Thank you, the emperor!" The ministers kowtowed again and stood up.

Emperor Jingxuan turned his gaze to Gong Lingjun again, his eyes less sharp than before.

Gong Lingjun let him look at it, and his face stood coldly.

"Retreat!" He waved his sleeves, turned around, glanced at Gong Lingjun again, and glared at Gong Lingrui again. He was so smart before, and seemed to pull Gong Lingjun into the water, but... the empress dowager appeared so promptly. He squinted his eyes, "You two, come with me!", he said coldly.

After talking, he walked away angrily.

Gong Lingrui looked at Gong Lingjun with a slight smile on his lips, and followed him with a slight smile. Gong Lingjun also raised his steps and followed closely.

After entering the imperial study room, Emperor Jingxuan ordered Tianzhong to guard the door outside, so he picked up the memorial on the jade desk and smashed it at Gong Lingrui with a crackling sound. "You are so brave!"

Gong Lingrui easily avoided Emperor Jingxuan's sudden attack, bowed to pick up the memorial on the ground, blew it, put it on the jade table, and smiled and said, "Uncle, carefully, don't be angry!"

Emperor Jingxuan stared at him, snorted coldly, and turned his face away. He waited until he suppressed the anger in his heart, and then turned his head to stare at him, "You arranged this?"

Gong Lingrui shook his head.

"What's going on with that booklet?" Emperor Jingxuan asked again.

"Is the booklet given to you by Grandma Huang, or is it the same book?"

"What do you think?" Emperor Jingxuan's heart rolled in anger again.

"If the Emperor Uncle said that book, I don't know!" Gong Lingrui shook his head and said, "You saw it last night. I took the little beauty to the emperor's palace to treat her. I spent the whole night in Yongshou Palace!"

"A person around me, a man who was intercepted and killed by Gong Lingquan and Rong Yue'er on the way to Lin'an to investigate the case. He was seriously injured and forced to disappear by Gong Lingxue. He was always with me last night!" He spread his hands, "So, I don't have time!"

Emperor Jingxuan glared at him.

"If it were the book given to you by Grandma Emperor today, I wouldn't know even more!" Gong Lingrui said again.

"I met Grandma the Emperor in Yongshou Palace last night. She heard that I took a woman there and went to see the little beauty. She said that she liked each other very much, and then left! As for what was in the brocade box, I don't know!"

Emperor Jingxuan stared at Gong Lingjun again.

"I don't know that last night, my son was always beside my father!" Gong Lingjun spoke Wenliang.

Emperor Jingxuan said nothing, looked at him and was struggling to show them the booklet? But even if the booklet was recorded in it was true, he looked at the son in front of him. Even with his current ability and support in the court, he was afraid and guarded against him.
