C46 destined (1/2)
Mo Hua was still sitting straight and unmoving. His cold and fierce eyes were slowly sweeping across Imperial Consort Qiong's, Imperial Consort Lan's, and Imperial Consort Hui's faces, as if he was trying to discern the truth of the matter.
The air seemed to be filled with an aura of death. Hong Yu's corpse was still lying there, blood flowing all over her face. Her eyes were wide open as she stared at the ceiling, as if she was unable to rest in peace.
The atmosphere was stifling.
”Your Eminence has arrived!”
Just as this heavy pressure was about to break the heartstrings of everyone, they suddenly heard a young eunuch's loud words!
— — Great Deity Official?
Everyone in the room was stunned.
As Great Deity Official was walking across the courtyard, Mo Hua had already stood up and smiled: ”Shen Qing, why have you come?”
Great Deity Official was still wearing his black mask, revealing only a pair of dark blue eyes that were like water. The purple robe was embroidered with masses of dark vein patterns, and the pitch-black hair hung naturally behind her head like a waterfall. Two strings of pearls extended from the bun to the sides of her ears, making him look even more mysterious.
”Your Majesty, Shen Qing is here.” While he was speaking presumptuously, he walked into the room without hesitation.
Imperial Consort Hui suddenly looked away, as if she did not dare to look at Great Deity Official.
Imperial Consort Lan's bright eyes met Great Deity Official's, and as she tried to guess the purpose of his visit, she could not help but chuckle.
— — The day to regain the favor of the Emperor was the day to get what he wanted.
She didn't forget a single moment of the Great Deity Official's prophecy.
Now that she had regained her imperial favour in place of the Phoenix Palm, it was obvious that the sudden arrival of the Great Deity Official was to help her.
As long as Imperial Consort Hui's crime is proven, she can be removed.
After all, the Curse Technique was the most taboo in this palace!
”You've come at the right time. I don't care about your other matters. I just want to see if you can help me restore this box of ashes.”
Mo Hua pointed at Ying Er who was kneeling on the ground, he immediately raised his hands above his head and raised the small box in his hands before Great Deity Official's eyes.
Great Deity Official casually glanced at it and said, ”Shen Qing is unable to restore it, but I can confirm that this is Blue Mist Palace's item.”
Hearing that, Imperial Consort Lan was startled, and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, ”What? Your Eminence, did you get it wrong? ”
”Is the Esteemed Empress Lan questioning my ability?”
The Great Deity Official's tone was cold, she did not even look at the Imperial Consort Lan, and only picked up the page that recorded the uses of the Polygonum multiflorum Thunb. After looking at it for a bit, she sneered: ”This kind of thing, is just some martial arts technique, how can it compare to the divine power that the Star Palace has?”
Imperial Consort Lan was shocked when she heard it, what exactly is Great Deity Official trying to do?
”No …” Your Eminence, this was definitely not what I meant … ”
Facing the Great Deity Official whose status was similar to that of an emperor, the Imperial Consort Lan did not dare to go against him. She could only let out a dry laugh, and then hurriedly pulled Mo Hua's arm as he helplessly said: ”But Your Majesty, even if this Hui Jin came from my Blue Mist Palace, chenqie, chenqie, chenqie, is really innocent.”
Mo Hua suddenly stood up and said: ”This matter still needs to be investigated.
The Imperial Consort Lan revealed a smile, as if nothing had happened before. Her soft voice carried a hint of a delicate tone, ”Then will Your Majesty be staying here tonight, or to follow chenqie back to the Blue Mist Palace? ”Chenqie specially cooked a bowl of tiger bone soup for the emperor.”
Mo Hua looked at Imperial Consort Lan's eyes which were filled with expectation, then turned and looked at Ye Qiongjiang, only to see her lowering her head in deep thought, not having the slightest intention to place her eyes on herself. She then turned back and said, ”Alright, tonight, I will go to your palace.”
The Imperial Consort Lan was overjoyed and wanted to drag the emperor out.
Mo Hua did not budge an inch, ”Go back first, we still have things to tell Shen Qing.”
The Imperial Consort Lan revealed her disappointment just in time and forced a smile, ”... Well then, chenqie will wait for you in Blue Mist Palace. ”
She called Begonia over, and the master and the servant both slowly left. However, they didn't want to leave, so they turned back a few times, filled with anticipation.
It was only until they came out of Jade Dew Hall that the beautiful smile on Imperial Consort Lan's face disappeared, and her eyes revealed a serious look.
”Empress, the emperor's intentions seem to be unclear.” Begonia was worried.
”Hmph, I'm not worried about the Emperor.” Xi Yan was dead, Hong Yu was dead as well, the thread had been broken. Even if Great Deity Official says that the Hui Jin belongs to my Blue Mist Palace, it doesn't mean anything. I just did not expect that the Great Deity Official would suddenly come.
Glimmers danced in her eyes as she glanced at the back of her eyes. She said in a dangerous tone, ”When you were dealing with the matter with the red jade, did you let anyone see it?”
”Empress, rest assured. Red Jade is willing to die in exchange for her brother's life. This servant has already sent someone to bring her little brother into the palace. As a young eunuch, I will be sending him to Blue Mist Palace to listen to the servants tomorrow. ”
Imperial Consort Lan put her slender jade hand on the Begonia's arm and smiled. ”Very good.”
After the Imperial Consort Lan left, Mo Hua turned around, glanced at the Imperial Consort Hui, gently waved his hand, and instructed: ”Qing An, you two can send the Imperial Consort Hui back to rest.”
