Fire Concubine: Demon Lord, too presumptuous!

418 Chapter 3 A Love Affair [-]
Everyone in the main hall raised their heads and looked at the people from far to near.

That person was wearing a flamboyant red palace robe with dragon patterns embroidered on the hem of the skirt. The beautiful dragon head came to life with the manipulation of her robe. She wore a golden crown on her head. Indifferent, red lips without spots, noble temperament, the emperor's demeanor can be seen at a glance!
Followed by many guards, each holding a red box in their hands, they walked through the long corridor and came in front of everyone.

For a while, the scene was dead silent.

Shen Xi's mind went blank, and he just stared straight at the stunning woman in front of him.

When Prime Minister Shen came back to his senses, he immediately pulled Shen Liang to his knees: "I will pay my respects to the Queen, long live the Queen!"

King Nangong didn't expect to meet the empress, so he also pulled Nangong Yurong to kneel down, "I...greetings to the empress! Long live the empress!"

All the members of the Shen family knelt down to worship, including Yue Chun, Lin Kai and others who came with him.

Only Shen Xi was still standing there.

Di Jiu looked at him, the sharpness in his eyes disappeared, and a layer of softness appeared in his eyes.

"Shen Xi." She called softly.

Shen Xi didn't move.

After a while, he lifted his robe slowly, knelt on his knees, and pressed his head against the cold ground, his voice was hoarse——

"Shen Xi, the son of Prime Minister Shen, pays homage to the empress, long live the empress... long live the empress."

He didn't expect that Mo Jiu was... actually the current Empress.

That female emperor nine who was passed down as a magical person by the imperial capital!

As a daughter, she had disguised herself as a prince for more than ten years, and fought in all walks of life for the imperial capital.

When seizing the throne, he even tried his best to seize the throne and beheaded the other princes and princesses who coveted the throne.

Some people say that she once had a pair of children...

Some people also said that she and the original national teacher were in a pair...

And in the last ten years, she has been busy with government affairs, consolidating the foundation of the imperial capital, getting along with all walks of life in peace, and even more closely interacting with the underworld.

She is an out-and-out empress through the ages!
Di Jiu wanted to stop his movement, but just as she stretched out her hand, she restrained her.

With a wave of his sleeves, "Excuse me."

"Thank you, Her Majesty the Queen!"

Everyone stood up, Di Jiu took a high seat, and after she sat down, the rest of the people took their seats one after another.

Nangong Yurong looked at Di Jiu who was sitting there and was so shocked that she couldn't speak. Isn't she a commoner?
How... how could she be the current empress?

Not only her, but Lin Kai, Jiang Fu, Yue Chun, and Shen Liang couldn't catch their breath until now.

Di Jiu's brows were tinged with chill, he looked at Prime Minister Shen, "Why should I apologize to him?"

Prime Minister Shen couldn't answer for a while, his face was pale.

It's not for anything else, it's just because the empress has always targeted the four big families, but now that King Nangong came to Beijing, he must have not informed the empress, if the empress suspects that his Shen family is involved with the four major families, then the Shen family... really I can't keep it.

No matter how loyal he is, it's useless.

"Your Majesty, old minister... old minister..."

"Prime Minister Shen." Di Jiu narrowed his eyes and his voice was low and hoarse, "You have to remember that you are an official in the capital and the prime minister of the imperial capital, and you don't need to compliment anyone except Zhen, huh?"

Prime Minister Shen's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he nodded repeatedly, "Remember, old minister!"

"And you." Di Jiu's sharp eyes fell on Nangong Wang.

Nangong Wang was short of breath, he swallowed nervously, his complexion was uglier than that of Prime Minister Shen.

"My officials, when are you going to humble yourself? You came to the capital to show off your might, because you think I'm dead?"

Di Jiu had been on the battlefield for nearly twenty years, and the killing spirit could be revealed unintentionally in his eyes, and he had been in power for the same twenty years, the pressure and aura of the emperor could be withstood by King Nangong.

Nangong Wang fell to his knees with a plop, his voice trembling: "I hope the queen will forgive me!"
