My Lady Is Not A Demon

Chapter 515

Queen mother?

Hearing the eunuch’s message, Emperor Ji Min narrowed his eyes slightly, and a ray of cold light burst out of his eyes.

At this time, the empress suddenly came here, obviously because of Chen Mu.

What the little emperor didn’t understand was that she couldn’t really trust Chen Mu completely.

For a chess piece that cannot be controlled, the queen should be more vigilant than him.

Maybe this time, what signal is it to send?

Chen Mu looked out of the hall subconsciously.

Although I have been called by the Queen Mother several times before, I have never seen his true face. Every time, I am separated by a curtain.

At this time, hearing the arrival of the Queen Mother, a little anticipation arose in my heart.

The lady Bai Xianyu had told him many times before that the queen mother was very beautiful, all over the world, and she was only in her thirties.

Even if Bai Xianyu is exaggerated, the queen mother’s appearance will not be much worse.

However, to his disappointment, the queen mother, who was surrounded by the maids and maids, entered the Jinluan Great Hall through the side door, sitting in the inner hall separated by the bead curtain, and did not give Chen Mu the slightest chance to see her true face.

“The child minister pays homage to his mother.” The emperor bowed and saluted.

“Chen Mu sees the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose…”

Compared to the perfunctory salute to the emperor, Chen Mu was more respectful to the Queen Mother, although he still did not bow down.

“Your Majesty does not need to be polite.”

The queen mother has a majestic but beautiful voice, which warms the originally cold atmosphere in the Great Hall a bit, and no longer tensed.

The woman’s beautiful eyes looked at Chen Mu through the bead curtain and saw the truth: “Chen Aiqing, I heard that you are now the emperor of the Yin & Yang sect. I wronged you.”

Hearing the mocking tone of the queen mother, the young emperor was delighted.

He hasn’t touched Chen Mu, and what he most worried about was the level of trust the Queen Mother had in Chen Mu, otherwise he would have done it a long time ago.

At this moment, the queen mother satirized the other party in front of him, which has already explained her attitude.

Ji Min raised his chin slightly and looked at Chen Mu with a colder gaze than before. He even figured out how to punish Chen Mu, so that this nasty guy would taste the consequences of not respecting the imperial power.

“Listening to the words of the Queen Mother, do you want to give a humble post a high official?”

Chen Mu was stunned for a few seconds before waving his hand hurriedly. “The empress dowager’s gift has been accepted by the humble heart. This time I went to the Yin & Yang sect and failed to complete the task assigned by the queen dowager. I feel ashamed in my humble heart. How dare I ask the queen dowager for a reward again.”

The man’s cheeky and shameless face made the young emperor nauseous and sick.

How low can people be so not wanting face?

Need a reward?

Are you worthy?

However, what happened next was completely beyond his expectations.

The Queen Mother was not annoyed by Chen Mu’s silly jokes, but instead said softly: “Chen Aiqing is humble. This time Aiqing went to Yin & Yang sect by herself. The family was worried that they would encounter danger before, and she was uneasy. , But never expected Chen Aiqing to become Yin & Yang Zong Tianjun, which is amazing.

Now Chen Aiqing has returned to the imperial court even after becoming the emperor of heaven, mourning her family and her majesty as a courtier, which shows her loyalty.

So after thinking about it, I decided to reward you.

Just as your Majesty summoned you, the Ai family came to discuss with your Majesty, and proposed to grant Chen Aiqing the title of Anping Bo, without a title, not hereditary, how about Luding Qianshi? ”

The words of the Queen Mother fell like a blockbuster in the Great Hall, leaving everyone present in shock and speechless.

The smile on the young emperor’s face had not faded, and he was stiff and sluggish.

Even Chen Mu was a little dumbfounded.

What do you mean?

Gave me an earl? Queen Mother, is your old man’s brain flooded and dare to give this kind of reward? Go crazy.

Are you not afraid of being sprayed to death by the spit and scum of the Manchu civil and military officials tomorrow?

The reward of knighthood was actually not common in the Great Yan Dynasty. The main reason was that the founding emperor was tired of the drawbacks it brought and set up a lot of regulations to restrict it.

One of the most important points is: where a noble is not a society, the military merits shall not be awarded, and the title shall not be granted for non-special purpose.

However, as time went by, many emperors in later generations began to confer meritorious officials on knights, and the ancestors’ orders were slowly forgotten. Even so, they were carried out under many restricted conditions.

A small official like Chen Mu, who is also the head of a sect, directly enshrines the knights, unprecedented!

Of course, the Queen Mother also specifically stated that there were only noble titles and Shilus, but no titles, and they could not be hereditary, which was a false name in the original sense.

But even with a false name, it was enough to set off a storm above the court.

The emperor’s childish heroic cheeks were slightly distorted. After being shocked for a long time before returning to his senses, he quickly said: “Mother, the son thinks–”

“Presumably Your Majesty has no opinion on the proposal of the Aijia, right?”

Through the lightly shaking bead curtain, the woman’s Leng Rui shot directly at the emperor with extremely oppressive cold light, making the latter’s back horrified, sweating, and slightly whiter cheeks.

Such a familiar and unfamiliar compelling gaze has not appeared for a long time.

The emperor was in a daze.

I remember the last time the queen mother used such a domineering attitude to oppress him, it was when he just turned ten years old.

When he was young and energetic that day, under the words of a certain courtier, he spoke harshly to the Queen Mother in the Great Hall, hoping to seize the power of the emperor. At that time, the queen mother looked at him with this kind of eyes and made his legs feel weak.

After returning to the palace, he was banned by the Queen Mother for almost half a year before he was free.

And the courtier who Guyan him was even cut off by the whole door, and his head was specially made into a lamp and placed outside the window of his palace.

Sometimes I think of it accidentally, as if disturbed by a nightmare.

Although the empress dowager’s temperament was greatly reduced, and she treated people more gently, but the look in her eyes was unforgettable for a lifetime.

The young emperor clenched his fists, bit his lip without saying a word, his mouth was filled with a faint smell of blood.

He wants to resist!

He wanted to refute loudly the absurd proposal of the Queen Mother!

He wanted to prove to this woman that he had grown up and was an emperor no longer controlled by anyone.

He even wanted to rush to the woman and choke her neck…

Then.

Then what?

The young emperor was a little confused.

After a long time, he squeezed a bitter voice from his throat: “The son and the minister have no objection, and all listen to the words of the mother.”

It was only then that he understood that the empress dowager came here suddenly not to humiliate Chen Mu, but to warn him the emperor, and use the absurd proposal of knighthood to solemnly express his trust in Chen Mu.

Why is this happening?

Isn’t the queen afraid that Chen Mu will one day become a vicious dog biting her master?

The little emperor couldn’t understand.

“Since Your Majesty has no opinion, it will be convenient for the court to make an announcement tomorrow. As for the reaction of the ministers, just ignore it.”

The Queen Mother said in a domineering tone.

Ji Min nodded hard: “Erchen understands.”

The queen mother smiled slightly, her beautiful face blooming like a fragrant flower, as if she had a rich and delicate fragrance, and she looked at Chen Mu tenderly, “Chen Aiqing, why don’t you thank your majesty?”

Chen Mu reacted, glanced at the queen mother weirdly, and apologized to the pale-faced little emperor: “Thank you, your majesty for the reward, long live my emperor.”

The emperor moved his lips to respond, but couldn’t say anything.

In the end, he just waved his hand, turned and left the Great Hall.

After returning to his bedroom, Ji Min rejected all the maids and eunuchs, only to feel the pain in his chest, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

Shaking all over, he looked at the blood on the ground, and slowly laughed, seeming a little crazy.

“why!”

He slammed a fist on the table, his expression grinning like a beast. “Why treat me this way!”

The emperor angrily smashed all the vases, until he was tired, he gradually slumped on the ground, his eyes dull.

I don’t know how long it took before he stood up shaking.

The look of lonely lost soul is like a drunk frustrated person.

Looking at a slightly hidden portrait in the corner, the young man closed his eyes wearily, before opening them after a long time, his eyes were full of contradictions of fiery heat and hatred.

He muttered to himself: “It doesn’t matter, I will prove myself, one day… the world and you will belong to me!”
