Chapter 2960 Counterattack of the Cowardly Empress 28

Everyone's faces no longer had the flattery they used to, mixed with the rain pouring on Zhao Li's face, his heart was extremely cold.

Self-deprecating lips twitched, huh...

No matter where he went, whether in Zhao or Mingyue, the emperor's favor was the most important thing.

However, listening to the heavy sound of the bell on the top of the mountain, it means that the emperor of Mingyue Kingdom has already climbed to the top of Phoenix Mountain, and the sacrifice will be started in a while.

I don't know when the light rain will fall. When the light rain is over and then go up, maybe the sacrifice is over. If he doesn't go to the sacrifice and returns to the harem, his life will be even more difficult.

In the past, when the Empress stayed in his Qingquan Palace every day, he never gave a good look to the men in the harem. These men were already eyeing him...

If he didn't accompany him to the sacrificial ceremony, after returning to the palace, it would mean that he had completely fallen out of favor. A person who fell out of favor, no matter how senior he was in the harem without a backer behind him, he suddenly remembered the fate of his mother as a palace maid, His body shivered coldly.

I don't know where the strength came from, and he pushed away the female officer who was blocking him in front of him. His eyebrows were low, and that cold face completely disappeared.

"Just rely on you, what are you guys, dare to stop me?" He roared with a gloomy expression, Zhao Guo respected men, and in Zhao Guo, in order to protect himself, he also practiced boxing skills, After coming to Mingyue Kingdom, facing those women who coveted his beauty, he didn't dare to relax even for a moment.

These female officials raised in the deep palace since childhood, although they are tall and tall, they are not Zhao Li's opponents.

After a while, Zhao Li broke through the siege.

"Concubine! You can't go up! Your Majesty has an order! The people in the harem have to wait for the rain to stop before going up."

Why do you have to wait for the rain to stop before going up? This is clearly aimed at him! ! !

He knew from a young age that although Zhao Jue has a good temper, he is the one who demands the only one! !

Maybe the Empress was afraid that other concubines would go up and Zhao Jue would be jealous, so she deliberately made such an excuse! !

Xu Xue was left in front, and he naturally heard the conflict that occurred later. She frowned, listening to the voice of her beloved losing her temper, her heart tightened.

What kind of grievance did this make him suffer to make him such a gentle and cold person become like this! !

Xu Xue bit her lip tightly, and finally, after hesitating for a while, she couldn't help but step forward, she looked at the arrogant female official with a cold face, and scolded coldly, "What the hell happened? , a female official in your district dares to block the way of the imperial concubine!!"

When the female officer saw that Xu Xue was coming, the indifferent and impatient expression on her face changed immediately, she looked at Xu Xue with a full smile, "The prime minister is not a servant who deliberately embarrassed a noble concubine, but a concubine who has ordered the harem, must be We have to wait for the rain to stop before we can walk up Phoenix Mountain and participate in the sacrificial ceremony."

"The rain hasn't stopped yet. If the imperial concubine rushes up and provokes His Majesty Fengyan's rage, then our little lives as servants will be in danger!!!"

"I also hope that the Prime Minister will not make it difficult for the servants."

Zhao Li was trembling with anger, and when he thought about how humiliated and treated he would be after he couldn't participate in the sacrificial ceremony and returned to the palace, he was in a bad mood.

He even looked at Xu Xue with a kind of resentment.

Xu Xue couldn't hold it any longer, and she almost came forward to hug someone in distress.

If it weren't for his own identity, I'm afraid this female official who humiliated his sweetheart would have fallen to the ground long ago.

"It's raining less now, so the concubines should go up first." Xu Xue said slowly, "Sacrificial ceremony has always been a tradition of my Mingyue Kingdom. Harem worship is indispensable, and Your Majesty only cares about the concubines in the harem. The concubines will wait here because of the rain and fall."

"But if you miss the timing of the sacrificial ceremony because of your rigidity, then it won't be a matter of losing your head. If you blame it, it is estimated that your whole family's life will not be saved."

Now that she is not in the palace, the people she brings with her have already been hidden by the Empress. Outside the palace, if you want to move, your hands and feet will be open.

Xu Xue slowly raised the corners of her lips. She understood that this time, she must have brought a lot of dark guards with her to the ceremony. Although she could not let the Empress die directly, she would not let the Empress directly kill her. Leave this sacrificial ceremony intact.

"This..." The female official had a look of embarrassment on her face. She looked at Zhao Li, who was standing in front of her, and then at Xu Xue. She was obviously moved by what Xu Xue said.

No one can guess His Majesty's current thoughts. There is a gust of wind and rain. If it is really a whim to let the concubines wait here, and the sacrifice ceremony will be blamed for the lack of the concubines, she is indeed the whole family. fatal.

"Don't worry, when something happens, the Prime Minister will take care of it for you."

A gentle smile appeared on Xu Xue's face, but the murderous aura towards the female official was hidden in her eyes.

The Empress couldn't move because of her status, but what kind of status was this little female official who dared to humiliate Zhao Li in public.

After hesitating for a moment, the female officer moved her body away and let everyone go.

Xu Xue looked at Zhao Li with a smile on his face, but Zhao Li, who was already humiliated at this time, didn't want to give any response at all. He directly lowered his face and walked up the steps.

But at this time, a group of royal guards ran down and invited all the ministers who were stranded on the spot to go up Phoenix Mountain.

, and immediately blocked the steps at the entrance to Phoenix Mountain.

Xu Xue's face suddenly turned ugly, "Your Majesty, what are you trying to do???"

All the ministers went up, but she left the prime minister and the concubines of the harem here, waiting in place at the foot of the mountain? ?

The expression on Yulin Jun's face was very indifferent, but after responding to an order from His Majesty, he did not respond again.

Xu Xue's face suddenly became very ugly.

This woman definitely did it on purpose! !

She was so angry that she wanted to stomp, but faced with the obstruction of the Imperial Forest Army, she had no choice.

A little female official, she can fool around, but she has no way of getting involved in the Imperial Forest Army, which has been commanded by the dark guards to control the power.

She looked at Zhao Li subconsciously, and sure enough, she saw a look of disappointment on his face.

Xu Xue's heart tightened. She opened her mouth to say something, but in front of so many people, she couldn't say it.
