Narada world

The Queen Mother's birthday is celebrated every year in the palace, and only officials above the third rank can participate.A high platform was set up in front of Fengqing Palace for the birthday banquet. Officials from the four divisions and eight divisions were all present, and all the elite soldiers and generals of the Imperial Forest Army were in place.

As the night approaches and the moonlight shines lightly, Biluoting is the backyard garden of Fengqing Palace, where the banquet is held.The originally quiet night became increasingly lively as court officials entered.

"The emperor is here, the queen mother is here." With a high-pitched shout, everyone bent down and knelt down, and saw Yiqing Huan wearing a bright red floor-length robe, with golden silk embroidered auspicious clouds on the neckline and sleeves, Elegant orchids are scattered and casually scattered on the whole robe, which looks dignified and elegant.Although Shaohua has passed away, the spirit of ruling the six palaces is still there.

Qin Junlan is dressed in a bright yellow robe, with silver and gold threads outlining a few swimming dragons, which are likely to soar into the sky. She puts on a little makeup, her slender eyelashes flutter slightly, and her crescent eyebrows are thinly brushed with Qingdai, reflecting her cold eyes.The majesty overlooking the world, the unattainable and luxurious temperament, has the momentum of dominating the world.

"Long live my emperor, long live long live, long live long live the queen mother." Everyone kowtowed, and Qin Junlan slightly raised her bare hands, "Stay flat."

"Thank the emperor, thank the queen mother."

Qin Junlan raised her hand, and Li Ruo brought a picture scroll to present. She held the picture scroll herself, bowed slightly, and saluted Yi Qinghuan, "I will draw a picture for my mother. I wish my mother a blessing like the East China Sea and a longer life than Nanshan."

"The emperor's son is so filial, and the Ai family is very pleased." Yiqing's laughter continued undiminished, and birthdays are always the same every year. What she wanted most and what she wanted to see most, after all, she couldn't get it.

Qiu Shui opened the painting scroll, his eyes lit up, his face showed joy, and he presented the painting to Yi Qinghuan, "Queen~"

Yi Qinghuan glanced away inadvertently, his expression changed slightly, and he stood up. The person in the painting was dancing a sword in a loquat forest. With that sassy figure and familiar charm, who could it be if it wasn't his sister Yi Qingyu?Qin Junlan knows that she misses her sister very much, so she has already drawn a picture of her chic demeanor, just waiting to give it to her as a birthday gift.

"Yu'er..." Yi Qinghuan touched the picture scroll, her emotions haven't subsided for a long time, her normally serious eyes were full of sadness.

"Empress Dowager, this servant will hang back in your bedroom and appreciate it slowly. It's time to accept the gift of the virtuous king." Qiu Shui specially reminded that it is not appropriate to show too much emotion on such an occasion. gift.

"Thank you for your filial piety. The Ai family likes it very much." Yi Qinghuan shook Qin Junlan's hand, and Qin Junlan stretched her eyebrows, "It's good that the queen mother likes it."

Everything was in accordance with court etiquette. After Qin Junlan, the virtuous king Qin Junhao and princess Yunjin presented gifts. They brought Xiaojun Wang Guoer together to congratulate, "I wish my mother a happy life and a healthy life."

"Jin'er wishes her mother all the blessings and prosperity, and the blessings will last forever. The concubine and the virtuous king specially selected the Fengqi sycamore jade carving to present to the queen." The eunuch accepted the exquisite jade carving and presented it to the queen mother for viewing. Yi Qinghuan nodded, "The meaning is very good. The gift chosen by Jin'er will definitely make the family feel sad."

"Jin'er has always cared for her mother, and has been preparing for this ceremony for half a year. She personally supervised the sculptor to complete it. Jin'er's filial piety makes all the ministers feel ashamed." Qin Junhao's eyes kept falling on Yun Jin as he spoke. , that infatuated expression and hot gaze only made Yunjin feel uncomfortable, but she could only return it with courtesy, "The prince has praised me absurdly, this is what a concubine should do." After speaking, she involuntarily glanced at Qin Junlan.

The corners of her lips were smiling, her brows and eyes were slightly upturned, and her alluring face was even more elegant behind the dragon robe.You always need to look up to see that lofty posture, but Yun Jin is content to be able to see it.

"Grandmother wishes the emperor's grandmother forever young and beautiful, and never grows old. Grandson draws a picture and dedicates it to the emperor's grandmother." Guo'er's immature childish voice made Yi Qinghuan very happy, "Guo'er can paint, Who is the teacher?"

Guo'er took a peek at Qin Junlan, said with a smile on her face, "Naturally, it's Aunt Huang. Aunt Huang's paintings have the potential to swallow up mountains and rivers. The country is strong and prosperous, and Aunt Huang is imperative to unify the world. Guo'er pays homage to Aunt Huang. I look forward to seeing you one day." To be like her."

"Oh, look, Jin'er must have taught our little county king to be so good at talking." Yi Qinghuan was full of praise for Guo'er. She has decided to personally train him to become a talent.

For Yi Qinghuan, this year's birthday is different from usual, and she is happier than in previous years.Because she saw that Guo'er has become a little adult, quite a gentleman, and more importantly, that painting of Qing Yu.She hadn't seen Yi Qingyu for a long time, even if she went to the loquat forest with Qin Junlan occasionally, Yi Qingyu would not even see Qin Junlan when she knew she was there.

In these years, even hearing her voice is an extravagant hope. Ching Yu probably has long forgotten his own birthday.He ever remembered that when he was a child, the two sisters always gave each other gifts on each other's birthdays.Although they are only three years apart, the two sisters have always depended on each other for life, but now because of a woman, the relationship has become so twisted, which is really sad.

Celebrating like this every year, Yi Qinghuan feels dull and boring, but today I miss Yi Qingyu very much, with mixed feelings in my heart, and endless melancholy.Sisi orchestral music played the birthday party, and the court ladies danced like a frightened bird, like a dragon swimming.

Thousands of grand occasions are nothing more than this, and there is a lot of chatter and laughter here, and the occasion of the exchange of toasts and cups is full of arty talks in the court.On the other side, turbulence began to appear at the four gates of Dragon City, and the guards of the Imperial Forest Army also made waves.

After the red tape, singing and dancing, the prime minister specially arranged a huge firework show.The gorgeous fireworks rushed into the sky, decorating the entire Fengqing Palace with lights and festoons, and the moment of youth was fleeting in the air.

The light of the fireworks covered one layer after another, and the brightness dazzled people's eyes. They never noticed that many men in black suddenly killed in mid-air.Hiding in the night sky illuminated by fireworks, it is inconspicuous.Qin Junlan was holding the wine glass, seeing the slightest shake on the surface of the wine, she raised her sharp eyes, turned the wine glass, and bounced it heavily into the air from her hand.

"Touch!" A sharp sword shattered the wine glass, and Qin Junlan flicked the glass to block the bow and arrow that was aimed at her.This broken sound seemed to be a signal, which attracted everyone's attention.

"There are assassins, protect the empress dowager!" Li Ruo shouted, drew out his sharp sword, and stood in front of Qin Junlan.Before he finished speaking, several flying arrows came quickly, and he turned the hilt of his sword like a whirlwind to block the attack.

More than a dozen men in black descended from the sky. They held crossbows and placed them horizontally on their arms. They flew up with lightness skills and aimed at the high platform.Suddenly a sharp arrow flew towards Yiqing Huan, and Qiu Shui hurriedly stood in front of her. At the very moment, a figure flew over and blocked the assassin's attack with his sword.

"Protect the Empress Dowager." Chen Qing gave an order, and several imperial guards stood in front of Yi Qinghuan like a human wall.

"Kill Qin Junlan!" the assassin said loudly, drew his sword, and fought with the Banquet Imperial Forest Army.The assassin's martial arts were so strong that it was difficult for the imperial guards to resist, but Li Ruo was able to resist. Li Yue stayed by Yun Jin's side all the time, not daring to leave even half a step.

The target of all the assassins was Qin Junlan, who came in menacingly, but the rescue of the Yulin Army came late, and the escort team that was supposed to appear at the first time was nowhere to be seen.

"Prime Minister, where is the Imperial Forest Army? Come and escort them!" Yi Qinghuan shouted loudly, Yi Hongchuan sneered, and saluted calmly, "Your brother obeys the order."

"Come on, guard...driver!" He raised his eyebrows and gave a wicked smile. He saw a large group of men and horses appearing, holding spears and swords, blocking the water around the banquet, but they did not stop the assassin. Just watched Qin Junlan suffer with cold eyes.

At the banquet, only Li Ruo, Chen Qing and others fought hard to resist, and the few guards were also killed by the assassins. Qin Junlan's safety was in jeopardy, but no one from the Imperial Forest Army stepped forward.

"What are you still doing in a daze? You haven't taken down the assassin yet!" Yi Qinghuan was impatient, pointing at Yi Hongchuan and yelling. Until now, she never thought that her own brother would rebel on her birthday.

"A few assassins just want to hurt the emperor, don't even think about it!" I saw Chen Qing flying up, with the sword flying in the air, and the sword energy was flying around. When he was flying, he killed three assassins. He winked at Liyue, as if asking for credit.

Li Yuebai glanced at her, no matter what time he dared to tease her.Li Yue cast her a disgusted look, and said, "Quick battle!" She and Li Ruo used both swords together. Although the brother and sister's meteor swordsmanship was not unique in the world, it was as fast as lightning. Almost all killed.

During a birthday banquet, blood flowed like a river, and the corpses of assassins and guards were lying on the ground, and the smell of blood filled the air.Yun Jin had been blindfolded to Guo'er, who knew that he had already secretly opened Yun Jin's fingers, and secretly watched the bloody killing through the fingers without fear.

Qin Junlan began to sit in the dragon chair calmly, keeping his expressions.She glanced at the corpse on the ground indifferently, then looked at the prime minister, grinning lightly, "Prime Minister, is this the guard you arranged?"

"Haha, Your Majesty, do you have trouble with your eyesight? Do you know anyone in this large group of Imperial Forest Army?" Yi Hongchuan flicked his sleeves lightly, walked out of the banquet, and saw the Imperial Forest Army collectively bowing to him, "See prime minister."

"Exemption." Yi Hongchuan's face was full of complacency. He had already replaced the Imperial Forest Army with his own soldiers and personal guards. Not only that, he also recruited a third of the Imperial Forest Army, and specially arranged to do it on birthdays.

"Yi Hongchuan, what do you want to do?" Yi Qinghuan finally realized what was going on, got up from the phoenix chair, and shouted sharply: "Do you want to rebel?"

"That's right, Eldest Sister, Eldest Sister, you once ruled the Six Palaces and held great power, why can't you even control your own daughter. If I don't do something today, I'm afraid my family members will soon lose their foothold. Please forgive me, my brother is also forced to."

"You, you are too presumptuous! How dare you commit such a serious crime!" Yi Qinghuan couldn't believe it, pointed at Yi Hongchuan and cursed, "Don't forget, whose blessing do you have today? Outrageous!"

Yi Hongchuan sneered, and took a few steps forward, surrounded by two masters in black and white robes, who kept him safe at all times. His facial muscles twitched slightly, and his smile couldn't be concealed, as if victory was in hand, completely disregarding any status and etiquette, "Hmph , Without me, would Qin Junlan sit on the throne of God? This position is not suitable for girls at all. Starting today, this prime minister will abolish the system of women being officials in the country of Ji, and the country of Ji should change its surname."

"Yi Hongchuan, you want to sit in my seat, have you asked all the officials?" Qin Junlan was not flustered, and looked at the dozen or so officials hiding beside him, no one dared to stand up against him.She just wanted to see who was a loyal minister and who was a traitor at such an emergency.

"Your Majesty might as well just ask them." Yi Hongchuan looked at the dozen or so officials, and smiled slyly: "This prime minister wants to change the sky and reform the country of Ji, do you have any objections?"

"The prime minister's trip is against the way of a monarch and his ministers. It is really not tolerated by heaven and earth." Mr. Ribu Shang was the first to stand up to object. Before he approached the prime minister, he saw a flash of sword light, his eyes widened, and blood spurted from his neck , fell in a pool of blood.

Qin Junlan stood up and saw a loyal minister die in front of her eyes. A gleam of coldness flashed in her originally calm eyes. She glanced at the ministers and saw that Master Ji was about to stand up and resist. She hurriedly signaled him with her eyes and shook her head slightly.Ji Qiuchen understood what Qin Junlan meant, so he had no choice but to retreat.
