Summoning the Mythical Eternal Emperor

Chapter 1133 Unfavorable

At this time, Li Buhui was dressed in a red robe with eight phoenixes embroidered on it, which was only one more solemn than the empress's nine phoenixes. He was holding a cup of incomparably exquisite tea and sipping tea.

The makeup is very deep, dark red and thick, very oppressive and majestic!

Li Buhui himself was born in a military camp and grew up in the Xiliang Border Gate. Compared with the other concubines in Weiyang Palace, he was a bit more ruthless and ruthless.

In those cold and aloof eyes, it seems that he can no longer see the savagery and delicateness when he was the princess.

"Li Shi, has there been a reply from the Western Tianyu?" Li Buhui put the teacup aside, raised his eyes, and glanced coldly at the senior minister in first-grade court uniform who was kneeling on the ground.

Li Shi knelt on the ground, fearful and trembling, said:
"Return...return to empress, there is no response yet, I am afraid that it will be the same as before, and His Majesty still refuses to accept it."

Those who can wear first-grade civil official court clothes are naturally not ordinary people.

This Li Shi is none other than one of the assistant ministers of the current cabinet, the majestic Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and a first-rank court official with real power in his hands!
Officials!
That is the important department of the imperial court that governs the evaluation and promotion of officials, officials and civil servants!

In fact, it was not long before Li Shi was promoted to the post of Minister of the Ministry of Officials, only three years, and he had always been the Minister of the Ministry of Officials before.

In addition, Li Shi's background is also closely related to the current Guozhu Palace. He can be regarded as an offshoot of the same clan, and he is able to exist today because of the care of the Guozhu Palace.

It is precisely because of this that Li Shi is absolutely loyal to Li Buhui, the core figure of the current Guozhu Palace, and he is the leader!

Li Buhui frowned when he heard this.

Immediately, he sighed lightly, shook his head, very puzzled, and said:

"It doesn't make sense. This time, half of the court signed a joint letter. Even that old fellow Zhang Juzheng came forward. It is impossible for His Majesty not to respond!"

At this time, an old man who bowed to the side came out, his face was a little uneasy, and his expression was quite frightened.

This old man is none other than Uncle Gong, the personal guard of Guozhu King Li Hetu back then, and the old housekeeper of the current Guozhu Palace.

It's just that Uncle Gong is very old now, his temples are gray, and even his waist is bent together.

"Ma'am, this old slave is a little worried..." Uncle Gong said in a deep voice.

"What are you worried about?" Li Buhui frowned.

"Your Majesty has deep affection for the Empress, and when the Empress returns, Your Majesty may..."

"There is no possibility! Mengye Qingyou has been absent for 11 years, and he is no longer worthy of the position of empress. Besides, this palace gave birth to a prince for His Majesty. Tai'er is smart and promising. He should have been crowned prince long ago. Even if you insist on going your own way, you can't ignore the hearts of the courtiers and the will of the people!"

Li Buhui snorted coldly.

When he said this, there was a hint of resentment and resentment in his eyes, and the hand that was caressing the armrest of the phoenix chair had five fingers deep marks.

Then, he got up suddenly, walked down the hall, and stood facing the outside of the hall with his hands behind his back.

"It's been 11 years, and the Han people have long forgotten about the so-called empress. In the past 11 years, this palace has been helping His Majesty solve problems, taking charge of the Six Palaces, and comforting the world!"

"In terms of the hearts of the subjects, I am conscientious and conscientious, and I am a loyal minister of the country! In terms of contribution, I raised Tai'er single-handedly, with extraordinary literary and military strategies!"

"It's not that the palace is persecuting His Majesty, but the hearts of the subjects are unstoppable!"

Li Buhui said angrily.

Uncle Gong was silent.

Li Shi knelt down and said repeatedly:

"Your Majesty's words are very true. The empress of the Great Han Dynasty should belong to your Majesty in the first place! The Li family of Guozhu has devoted everything to the Han family, and the eldest prince Wentao Wulue is the candidate for the crown prince that the people want!"

"You don't need to compliment me, you...retire!"

Li Buhui turned around and said coldly.

After Li Shi kowtowed, he bowed and retreated.

Uncle Gong remained silent, and there was an indescribable complex meaning in his old eyes.

He always felt a sense of uneasiness, always felt that Li Buhui this time...or that he had really changed too much in the past few years, and he didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing.

And in fact.

Uncle Gong also felt a sense of resentment.

Over the years, Your Majesty has really owed the Li family and the empress some debts!
"Uncle Gong, you should step down too." Li Buhui glanced at Uncle Gong.

Uncle Gong wanted to say something more, but in the end he still didn't know how to start, so he simply bowed and retreated.

Inside Xuanhe Hall, Li Buhui was left alone.

The most powerful and prestigious woman in the Han Dynasty closed her eyes suddenly, and two lines of tears fell down.

"Why? Why exactly?"

"Zhao Yuankai, Zhao Yuankai, what is it about me, Li Buhui, that I am sorry for you? And how can I be inferior to Mengye Qingyou?"

Li Buhui asked himself and burst into tears.

Suddenly, she thought a lot.

That was the first time she met His Majesty when she traveled thousands of miles to Chang'an following her father's order. She was so proud that she resisted and disdained him at the beginning, then slowly admired and admired him, and then fell in love with him at first sight without hesitation.

She loves that man very much.

Her love has never been less than Ye Qingyou's, let alone cheaper than hers.

Maybe it was when we first met, I really went too far, but I can't blame her, because before that, Zhao Yuankai was really weak and incompetent.

For this, Li Buhui has always been guilty, so she has always been humble, in order to make that man happy, to please him, she even abandoned all dignity and arrogance.

Mengye Qingyou can go to die for His Majesty.

How could I, Li Buhui, not be like this?
How many sons of the Guozhu Li family died for the Han Dynasty?

I, Li Buhui, am not an ordinary person, but a majestic princess of the Han Dynasty. I am a woman who loves red makeup even if I say a thousand dollars and ten thousand dollars.

May I ask, with thousands of years of history in the Han Dynasty, is there any noble princess who grew up in a place like Xiliang and practiced hard like a boy in the barracks?

Li Buhui has been trying to curry favor.

But I have never seen His Majesty's gentleness.

Even if His Majesty granted her the title of concubine with grace, Li Buhui knew in his heart that it was not voluntary, but his father and concubine tried their best to persuade her.

After all, the Li family is the family of Guozhu, and Li Buhui was born as a princess after all.

The two are destined to be married.

although……

All of this looked more like a kind of charity Zhao Yuankai gave to their Li family and to her Li Buhui.

But that's okay.

She, Li Buhui, did not resent.

She was so happy on the day she entered the palace.

His Majesty favors the Empress alone, and she, Li Buhui, is not jealous.

She has a special liking for Wu Tingfang, and she, Li Buhui, is not unhappy.

Even if His Majesty treats Xu Xintian with tenderness and treats her like Li Buhui as something else, that's fine.

When Li Buhui sees them, he will call out his sister.

Although none of these people has her noble birth.

But so what?

She doesn't care.

All she cares about is that His Majesty is happy.

On the dragon bed, she took the initiative in every possible way, asking for His Majesty's good, she can do anything.

And then.

The empress disappeared mysteriously.

At that time, Li Buhui had no other thoughts.

She just feels bad.

Every time I see His Majesty going in and out like a different person, I feel distressed, and I just want to share something for His Majesty.

but……

His Majesty did not give her a chance.

No matter how many people are left in the harem, she, Li Buhui, will always be the last one His Majesty thinks of.

Xu Xintian gave birth to a little princess for His Majesty. On the day of Zhao Anping's birth, Li Buhui stood aside. She looked at His Majesty bewilderedly, and found that His Majesty was so happy.

Ever since, she was tempted.

She almost begged to please His Majesty.

at last.

She got her wish.

But also that year.

Li Buhui's only close relative, her father, had not survived the battle wounds all over his body. Before Zhao Antai was born, he died with all kinds of unwillingness and regret.

Li Buhui cried a lot that night.

Li Jiagui is a prince, what a prestige and status, but in fact, in this Guozhu Palace, she and her father depend on each other for life.

All the close relatives were buried in the Tianshan Mountains while guarding Xiliang.

Now, Li Buhui is the only one left in the Li family.

She was so helpless, so lonely, how she wished that man could be by her side that night, as long as he could give her a hug, just tell her softly, don't be afraid, there will be me in the future... She was content.

but!
Nothing.

That man bestowed unprecedented glory on the Li family, gave unprecedented honor to his father, and in the name of the national pillar, forged a height of glory that would be difficult for a man of the Han Dynasty to achieve forever!

But she just ignores the lonely woman who is still pregnant with Liujia in the mourning hall...

At that time, Li Buhui still had no complaints.

And then.

Little Antai was born.

This is His Majesty's eldest son, and also the eldest prince of the empire.

It happened not long after the king of the country was buried, and the death of the country had not yet fallen, and the birth of Xiao Antai was of great significance. Everyone in the government and the opposition was delighted and excited, and lamented that the heavens had eyes.

Li Buhui was also very happy.

She thought that Xiao Antai's appearance was of unparalleled significance, and she was destined to attract the attention of the public and be given a great mission.

But she never expected...

The man who once loved Xiao Anping so much didn't seem to love Xiao Antai as much as Li Buhui imagined.

In fact it is.

The man is biased.

How could she, as a mother, not be aware of the difference that even civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty could perceive?
Even so, Li Buhui still has no regrets, just like her name.

She felt that Xiao Antai was not good enough, so she didn't please His Majesty. Boys and girls are different after all. It is understandable that His Majesty has higher requirements for Xiao Antai.

Because higher requirements mean higher expectations.

Li Buhui told himself so.

Therefore, she did everything possible to cultivate Xiao Antai.

Xiao Anping was unruly and mischievous since childhood, but Xiao Antai couldn't do it. Li Buhui, who was born in the military clan, had an iron-like sense of discipline in his bones.

While babbling, Li Buhui found the most famous teacher in Chang'an for Xiao Antai.

When he was a toddler, Li Buhui ruthlessly asked Uncle Gong to take little Antai to the battlefield. At that time, little Antai was still ignorant and always cried.

Little Antai cried, and Li Buhui's heart ached, but he still gritted his teeth.

Because there is no way.

Because you are the eldest prince of the empire, you still have the blood of the Li family, the pillar king of the empire, who is the pinnacle of the empire's ministers.

Most importantly, you were born without favourites.

So, child, you can only do this, and mother can't help it...

Fortunately.

Xiao Antai did not disappoint Li Buhui.

After all, this is His Majesty's dragon species, after all, she is Li Buhui's own flesh and blood.

He was able to read at the age of two, and joined the martial arts at the age of three. Now he is only eight years old, and he has already completed all the courses before the Ping School in the four-level school system of the Kingdom Dynasty, and his martial arts cultivation has even entered the eighth level of the inner family.

This seems to be amazing!
Looking at Han soil, it is also second to none!
The most important thing is that little Antai is not proud and conceited because of this. On the contrary, under Li Buhui's strict teaching, he is humble and polite at a young age!
As a wife and mother, Li Buhui felt that he was truly worthy of that man, even if it was the emperor's family.

Every time Xiao Antai made progress, Li Buhui went to find that man full of anticipation, hoping that the man would give him a compliment.

But it seems that every time that man is so busy, he always seems so careless.

Regarding this, Li Buhui still has no complaints.

Who is she?
After all, she is the queen of Guozhu King.

Maybe she once had the unruly and willful period when a girl deserved to die, but the top political consciousness endowed by her birth and family background has not been discounted in the slightest, she knows the seriousness!

That man may not be that partial to Xiao Antai.

But the civil and military people of the Manchu Dynasty are completely different.

After all, Xiao Antai is the eldest prince of the empire. Although his mother is not the empress, she is Li Buhui, the daughter of the most respected and honored national pillar of the imperial family!
Originally, he came into this world with thousands of expectations, and lived up to expectations. In the hearts of civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and the people of the world, Zhao Antai is clearly lucky to be a big man with eyes in the sky!

The original Li Buhui really didn't think too much.

She also really raised her children out of the instinct of a mother, out of the basic consciousness of an imperial concubine and daughter of a meritorious national pillar.

but slowly...

she found.

Since the fall of the father, the Guozhu Palace, which has gradually become empty at the door, does not know when, the number of people visiting the door suddenly increased.

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, especially those high-ranking and powerful veterans, are also gradually approaching her, a noble concubine who was originally on the edge.

In the past, the Li family fell apart because of the war, but slowly, there were always people who looked through the genealogy and tried their best to get involved with the Li family with unresolved relationships.

Li Buhui didn't give any clear instructions.

However, it was discovered that those family members who were related to the Li family had sprung up like mushrooms in the important positions of various departments in Chang'an.

In the harem, this change is even more significant.

After the empress mysteriously disappeared, many affairs in the harem were generally handled by Wu Tingfang of Qiushui Palace. After all, this concubine Fang had served as the chief official of Beirong Prefecture before entering the palace.

In fact, no matter whether it is the Qiushui Palace or the East Palace, there is no clear decision, but the Qiushui Palace is located in Weiyang's harem, so it is more convenient for the inner court officials.

But I don't know when, the wind direction also changed, the inner court ministers would rather cause trouble for themselves, no matter how small or big, they insisted on going to the East Palace to kowtow to the concubine Xiangfei.
