A dark villain came to Jinting Bulaoxiang

Chapter 252 Killing someone with a borrowed knife

Upon seeing this, the good concubine snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "At your age, what use can you be? No!" After that, she moved her fingers away without hesitation and continued to look for the next target among the ministers.

"You!" This time, the concubine pointed her finger at a burly general. The general frowned, and a flash of anger flashed in his eyes, but he still suppressed his dissatisfaction and did not flare up.

The good concubine seemed to want to provoke him on purpose. She walked around him, then tapped his chest with her finger and said tauntingly, "Looking at your big and strong appearance, I'm afraid you only have brute force. Humph, that won't work!"

The general clenched his fists tightly, and the veins on his arms bulged, but he finally loosened his fists and lowered his head silently.

The concubine seemed to be very satisfied with her behavior, with a smug smile on her face. She continued to point her finger among the ministers, and every time she pointed at someone, she would say something sarcastic.

"You look like a decent person, but unfortunately you are just a idiot!"

"You, who only know how to be submissive all day long, what great things can you achieve? No way!"

"And you, you look so cowardly, it makes me upset just looking at you!"

……

After being arbitrarily instructed by the good concubine, the ministers had different reactions.

Some ministers had red faces, clenched their fists, and veins popped out on their arms, obviously trying their best to suppress their inner anger. Their eyes revealed strong dissatisfaction and indignation, but due to the majesty of Emperor Yuxuan, they dared not vent their anger and could only grit their teeth and endure silently.

Some ministers looked helpless, shook their heads and sighed. They knew the concubine's arrogance and Emperor Yuxuan's indulgence, and knew that resistance would be useless in this situation. They could only choose to accept this humiliating treatment silently. Their eyes were full of disappointment and helplessness, as if they were extremely sad about the current situation in the court.

There were also some younger and more vigorous ministers, with anger flashing in their eyes, staring directly at Concubine Hao, as if they wanted to argue with her.

But when they saw Emperor Yuxuan's cold eyes, the anger in their hearts was instantly extinguished. They could only suppress their anger, turn their heads away, and no longer look at the disgusting scene.

The veteran officials who had been in the officialdom for a long time were relatively calm. There was not much emotion on their faces, they just stood there quietly with their eyes downcast.

They knew that in this court, power was the key to everything. Resistance at this time would not only fail to change the status quo, but might bring them even greater trouble. They chose to endure and wait for the right time.

The ministers' faces became more and more ugly, but they all knew Emperor Yuxuan's temper, and no one dared to stand up and confront the evil concubine at this time. They could only silently endure the humiliation of the good concubine, their hearts filled with anger and helplessness.

The concubine seemed to be completely immersed in this wanton pleasure, her fingers kept moving, and her words became more and more vicious. The whole hall was filled with a depressing atmosphere, as if a storm was about to come.

Finally, the concubine seemed to be tired of pointing, she stopped, breathing heavily. Her eyes swept among the ministers, and then suddenly fell on Han Mingguang. Her eyes lit up, and a strange smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, as if she had found the target she had been looking for.

"Oh, it's so difficult to choose. I'm really exhausted." Good Concubine said coquettishly. After that, she deliberately turned her head away and acted coquettishly to Emperor Yuxuan, "Your Majesty, did I choose well?"

Her eyes never left Han Mingguang, and they were full of provocation and conspiracy.

Han Mingguang felt the hostile gaze of Concubine Hao, and his heart tightened. He knew that he had always been regarded as a thorn in the eyes and flesh by the Emperor and Concubine Hao, and this time she must be deliberately targeting him.

But he did not retreat, but straightened his back and met the good concubine's gaze without fear. His eyes were full of determination and confidence, as if announcing to the good concubine that he would never be easily defeated by her.

Emperor Yuxuan looked at Concubine Hao's actions with a satisfied smile on his face. He seemed to enjoy the feeling of being in control of everything. Not only did he not stop Concubine Hao's behavior, but he also fanned the flames.

"My beloved concubine has made a good choice. Let's start with him!" Emperor Yuxuan's voice echoed in the hall, like a thunder, breaking the last peace. The ministers couldn't help but sweat for Han Mingguang. They knew that a storm was about to sweep in...

Emperor Yuxuan sat high on the dragon throne, a symbol of supreme authority, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe. The five-clawed golden dragon embroidered on the robe seemed to come alive under the sunlight, baring its fangs and waving its claws, showing its majesty.

He wore a crown with sparkling beads hanging down in front of his forehead, swaying slightly as he moved, adding a touch of nobility to his appearance.

At this time, Han Mingguang, who was in the court, held his head high with a hint of unruly smile on his face, and laughed loudly at Emperor Yuxuan: "Hahaha! Isn't it just inviting the second young master? What's so difficult about that?"

His laughter echoed in the empty hall, and the nonchalance in his tone seemed to mock the emperor's making a fuss.

In his opinion, the emperor's move was really too drastic. It was just to invite someone, but he made such a big fuss. It was simply unbelievable.

Han Mingguang's arrogant attitude really stunned Emperor Yuxuan. A hint of surprise flashed across his originally deep and majestic eyes, and his brows slightly wrinkled, as if he was thinking about something.

Emperor Yuxuan thought again, he had been working with Xiao Sizhe for some time. Although Xiao Sizhe usually behaved a little crazy, they had built up some friendship.

Now that he had started with Han Mingguang, who was close to him, perhaps it was not appropriate. He secretly regretted that he should have let those who had not had much contact with Xiao Sizhe, or even never spoken to him, do the job first. Perhaps this would have achieved a better deterrent effect.

However, when Emperor Yuxuan realized this and wanted to call Han Mingguang, he found that it was too late. Han Mingguang had already walked away with big strides and did not look back. Emperor Yuxuan's eyes could only helplessly follow his back, and gradually, the back disappeared at the corner of the hall.

Emperor Yuxuan slowly withdrew his gaze, a complex emotion surged in his heart, and he couldn't help but begin to doubt his own judgment.

Emperor Yuxuan's eyes subconsciously looked at the good concubine beside him. The good concubine was wearing a gorgeous palace dress today. The dress was embroidered with exquisite patterns. The patterns outlined with gold and silver threads sparkled brightly in the sun.

She wore a phoenix crown on her head, which was inlaid with countless dazzling gems. It swayed gently with her movements, making a clear and pleasant sound. The face of the concubine was exquisite and beautiful, her skin was as white as snow, her eyebrows were as black as distant ink, and her eyes were as clear as autumn water, but there was a hint of indifference and arrogance in her eyes.
