The moon is bright and the night is still young

Chapter 27

Gao Qi, the third prince of the Ji Kingdom, succeeds to the throne and proclaims himself king. Following the original agreement, he canonized his concubine Mu Xiwen as the empress, bestowed the seal of the Phoenix, and honored his mother to the world.

In order to make meritorious deeds for Gao Qi, the Queen took off her phoenix robe and put on a battle armor as soon as the Queen's Conferment Ceremony was over, and led the troops to the border with her father on a tall horse.Ji Guo's banner fluttered in the wind with the cold wind and snow, inspiring the morale of the army.When the horn of attack sounded, General Mu took the lead with his saber, followed by the queen, who was no less impressive, carrying a long gun.

Although Li Guo was good at fighting, he was still unable to match Ji Guo's huge camp, and he was defeated after struggling for two days.The cunning royal family sent the last wave of fierce generals to form a human defense wall, trying to delay the third army's quiet retreat.How could this kind of trick fool the experienced General Mu, he led people away from the crowd, the queen took the opportunity to ride straight in, and broke into the depths of the Li Kingdom's royal family alone.When General Mu led his men and horses to kill the defense line and chased into the palace, the palace was already in a mess, the blood soaked the thick carpet, the queen's armor was completely red, and the blood flowed down the forehead. The shattered hair dripped down, like a ghost crawling out of hell.The spear had been broken in two, and Kong Ling with the long whip had become discolored.Seeing that the reinforcements had arrived, the queen fell to the ground and fell into a deep coma.

The queen's injuries were serious, and her vitality was severely damaged. She woke up after being in a coma for three whole days. There was a long wound on her face. Although the imperial doctors tried their best, the wound still left an eye-catching scar.The queen sacrificed her beauty in exchange for the complete surrender of the officials to the monarch.

The afternoon sun was warm and bright, and Mu Xiwen, who had sent off the imperial doctor, leaned on a soft chair in the sun, with a blanket wrapped around his lower body, admiring the winter snow-wrapped palace walls outside the window.

"Empress Queen, are you looking for me?" Yan'er walked in and saluted humbly, Mu Xiwen turned his face sideways, and said with a friendly smile: "You are here, you and I don't need to be polite. I'm really sorry that I haven't thanked you well yet." After saying that, she stretched out her hand, Yan'er got up and walked over, and Mu Xiwen held her hand affectionately. "If you can serve your empress, your servants will do anything they want." Mu Xiwen stood up and walked to the table, and picked up an exquisite pearl chain, "This palace specially selected it, do you like it?" .” Yan’er’s eyes were full of longing, but her mouth hadn’t lost her mind.Mu Xiwen smiled and put the necklace on her neck, "It's up to Ben Gong to decide whether to make it or not. Look, how beautiful this necklace is with you. Come, Ben Gong will put it on for you." Mu Xiwen Walking behind her, he wrapped the necklace around her neck, "Everything is settled now, I think about it, and I think I should thank you very much." Mu Xiwen put his hand into the blanket, "Your Your parents, Ben Gong, have already sent people to settle down. The money is enough for them to die. Don’t worry, they still think you are alive and well, and no one will tell them the cruel truth. You must be pious for Ben Gong’s intentions. Take it."

Before Yan'er could react, Mu Xiwen nimbly pulled out the long string hidden in the necklace, and strangled Yan'er's neck severely.

Mu Xiwen's strength was merciless, the woman just struggled a few times, then gradually twitched and softened.

When Gao Qi stepped into the palace, he saw Yan'er lying on the ground with his eyes turned white and his face ferocious, half of his neck was strangled.As if Mu Xiwen had just slaughtered a chicken or duck, he calmly restored the necklace to its original state and threw it on the corpse.

"You're crazy!" Gao Qi was irritated by the scene in front of him, he held onto the table in horror to barely support his body. "She participated in the most important process and is the biggest hidden danger. She must not be left behind." Mu Xiwen's tone was calm, "It's fine if you get out of the palace. Are you so proficient in killing people now?" Gao Qi asked again. Surprised and angry, he stared at Mu Xiwen in front of him. Facing this wife who shared the same bed, he felt deep fear and loathing in his bones. "Your Majesty, have you ever thought about what will happen to Your Majesty and my concubine if her involvement is revealed?" Mu Xiwen stroked the scar on his cheek, "The concubine crawled out of the dead, and with both hands It's already covered in blood, and it bears the lives of all the people of the Li Kingdom. For crimes like these, it's fine for the concubines to come, and you don't have to worry about it." Mu Xiwen called for a few attendants, and asked them to wrap the corpse in a sack and drag it out of the palace. to bury.

Gao Qi slowly sat down on the side of the bed, holding his forehead without saying a word.After dealing with this matter, Mu Xiwen approached happily, took Gao Qi's hand and placed it on his stomach, "I have good news to tell Your Majesty, the imperial doctor came to give Chenqie's pulse and said that Chenqie is pregnant gone."
