Seeing that Xue Feiye looked a little guilty, Xue Wuxia and Yun Ruoyue couldn't help but look at each other.
They always felt that the queen mother did not tell them the truth, but since the queen mother was unwilling to tell them, they naturally would not forcefully ask.
If she wants to say it, she will naturally say it.
"Queen, you are here just right. I have something to ask you." At this moment, an extremely deep voice came from the hall.
Several people looked back and saw Long Shitian, dressed in purple, leading a group of ministers towards them aggressively.
Xue Feiye immediately stood up, raised his head, and said arrogantly: "If you have anything to say, just say it!"
"I want to ask you, didn't you say that if you open the underground palace and you can see the treasures, you can bring wealth to the people? Why is this the result?" Long Shitian stared at Xue Feiye angrily, his eyes filled with murder.
meaning.
Xue Feiye raised her eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "I don't know either. This underground palace was passed down from our ancestors. I only know how to open the underground palace, but I don't know what's inside!"
"You are a queen and a saint from the previous generation. How dare you say that you don't know?" Long Shitian narrowed his eyes, looking furious.
He thought that after opening the underground palace this time, he would be able to monopolize the wealth of the underground palace.
Then use this wealth to expand manpower and armaments to enhance your own strength.
I didn't expect that when the underground palace opened, this scene would appear.
Now all his plans were ruined and all his ideas came to nothing.
He worked hard for so many years, but in the end he got nothing. Not only did he get nothing, but he also lost so many officials.
How can he not be angry?
Xue Feiye understood Long Shitian's anger, and she said in a deep voice: "National Master, I am indeed a saint. But the mission of my daughter and I is just to open the underground palace. Now that we have completed our mission, as for what is in the underground palace
It has nothing to do with us."
Elder Lin next to him said hurriedly: "Yes! Master National Master, the mission of the queen and princess is just to open the underground palace, and they have completed the mission as promised. The things in this underground palace were arranged by the ancestors of Xueyue Kingdom. Except for the ancestors, any
People don’t know, and it won’t help if you blame the Queen!”
"Elder Lin, how do you know the Queen did not deceive me?" Long Shitian stared at Elder Lin warningly.
Elder Lin hurriedly said, "I believe in the queen, and the queen will never deceive you."
Xue Feiye approached Long Shitian and said angrily in a low voice: "National Master, the princess's life is in your hands. Do you think I dare to deceive you?"
After hearing this, Long Shitian temporarily gave up his doubts.
He rolled his sleeves coldly and warned: "Okay, I will trust you for now. You'd better not lie to me! If I find out that you lied, you can't afford the consequences!"
After saying that, with a livid face, he led a group of people and left the place.
Seeing Long Shitian's powerful back, Xue Feiye raised her face coldly, also with a look of arrogance.
Xue Wuxia stared at Long Shitian's back and said angrily: "Mother, this Imperial Master is too arrogant! You are a majestic queen, and he doesn't take you seriously!"
Yun Ruoyue also said angrily: "Mother, you are the queen, why don't everyone listen to you and only listen to the imperial master?"
Xue Feiye sighed, "The Imperial Master is best at deceiving people. Ever since he founded the Lingyue Sect, he has attracted a large number of followers. Since those believers joined the Lingyue Sect, they all seemed to be possessed.
He takes the Imperial Master as his belief, so his power is getting bigger and bigger, and even I am not as good as him. Now the government is completely under his control, so many times, I can't do anything."
As she said that, she held Xue Wuxia and Yun Ruoyue's hands tightly, and blamed herself: "Yue'er, Wuxia, I'm sorry, it's all because the queen is useless. The queen failed to protect you well, so you are controlled by others everywhere."
"Especially you, Yue'er, it's all because of your mother's incompetence that she left you living outside and suffered so much." Xue Feiye looked at Yun Ruoyue sadly.
Yun Ruoyue said hurriedly: "Mother, this is not your fault. This is not your fault. If you are to blame, blame the Imperial Master. It was his greed for profit and his selfish desires that separated our mother and daughter. It's just that this time we didn't give it to the common people.
Bringing wealth will not improve people's lives, so I'm afraid they will blame us."
Xue Feiye said: "Yue'er, you don't have to be afraid. This matter is under the leadership of the Imperial Master. We are just following his orders. I believe that sensible people in this world will not blame us."
"Well, I hope so!" Yun Ruoyue nodded helplessly.
She said this, but she didn't have any hope in her heart.
She has not brought wealth to the people, and I am afraid that she will face many storms in the future.
"Holy girl, it turns out you are here. The young master is awake and wants to see you." At this time, Long Qi walked out of the hall.
Xue Wuxia immediately stood in front of Yun Ruoyue, "Long Qi, the saint has a noble status, how can others see her if they want? Now the saint wants to return to the palace with us, she won't tolerate guests!"
Long Qi said in a deep voice: "First Prince, you are none other than the Young Master. Moreover, the Imperial Master said that even if the Saint opens the underground palace, she will still have to live in the Imperial Master's Mansion and cannot return to the palace."
"You! Why? Yue'er has completed her mission, why don't you let her return to the palace? Let her reunite with our relatives?" Xue Wuxia's eyes were burning with anger.
Long Qi said calmly: "This is the order of the Imperial Preceptor. If the eldest prince is dissatisfied, he can ask the Imperial Preceptor. Don't embarrass us!"
"You! Long Qi, is this your attitude towards this prince? I tell you, don't think that I don't dare to hit you!" Xue Wuxia clenched her fists and glared at Long Qi.
"Forget it Wu Xia." Xue Feiye immediately stopped him, "He is just following orders. It's useless for you to hit him. Besides, even if we take Yue'er away by force, we can't protect her. Let Yue'er continue to live in the country.
Master, I believe that the national master will not treat the saint lightly."
As she said that, she gave Long Qi a meaningful look.
Long Qi frowned slightly and said nothing.
Xue Wuxia could only grit her teeth and said: "Okay!"
As he spoke, he pointed at Long Qi and warned: "Long Qi, don't be arrogant. Sooner or later, I will let you know who is superior and who is inferior!"
-
Soon, Xue Feiye also returned to the palace with Xue Wuxia and Wei'er.
After watching them leave, Yun Ruoyue turned back to the side hall to see Long Qianche.
As soon as she entered the side hall, Yun Ruoyue saw that Long Qianche had already sat up.
From a distance, she noticed that his skin was a little pale and his expression was a little weak.
She had never seen him so weak before. It could be seen that he must have used all his strength to protect her in the underground palace just now.
Thinking of this, she hurriedly walked over and looked at him with concern, "Are you awake? How do you feel now? Are you feeling better?"
