Chapter 93: Demons and devils, each with their own hidden agendas
After the door squeaked, a series of light footsteps stepped on the gold bricks of the palace, walking toward the bed where Du Kang was sitting.
The thick darkness could not block Du Kang's sight. He could see Xie Wanqing twisting Niaoniao's waist, with a look of melancholy in her eyebrows, walking step by step to the side of his bed.
"The Tutor has covered the Night Pearl, does he like to sleep in the dark?"
The Empress Dowager of Daliang looked at Du Kang lying on the bed, silently turned her body to the table next to the bed, picked up the black gauze lampshade covered with luminous pearls on the table, and let the moon-like pearls in the lamp sway in the palace.
middle.
The silver pearlescent light shone on Xie Wanqing's face and body, and it could be seen that she had changed her outfit. She was no longer wearing the dignified formal dress with a phoenix crown and a halo, but now she was wearing a sky blue Yaluo skirt.
Her black hair is randomly tied up by a green hairpin, her face is as pretty as a peach in spring, and her temperament is as pure as a chrysanthemum in autumn. She looks indescribably elegant and refined.
Especially the melancholy expression between her brows makes people feel a sense of pity in their hearts.
Du Kang had always been a compassionate person, and he hated to see a beautiful woman sad. At this time, as the prince of the dynasty, he had the responsibility to share the worries of the empress dowager. He immediately sat up from the bed and asked.
"Shouldn't the lights be turned off when sleeping? Does the Queen Mother like to sleep with the lights on?"
Xie Wanqing held the fist-sized moon pearl in the palm of his hand and brought it close to his face to admire the beautiful lines reflected by the light in the pearl. He let the cold light illuminate his face as brightly as a flower and said in a low tone.
"I'm not afraid of Taifu's jokes when I say this. I've been afraid of the dark since I was a child, and I can't get rid of this problem even after practicing magic.
After entering the palace, my fear of the dark became even more serious. The high walls and secluded pavilions in this palace kept me awake night after night. It wasn’t until those years when I finally became the queen after all the hard work that I became better, and when Yun’er ascended the throne
After that, the problem was completely cured.
But emperors are always short-lived. In less than two hundred years, I first sent away my husband, then my son, and now I have to send another emperor to the throne.
It is said that the emperor can dominate the world, but in my opinion, it is nothing more than that. My Yun'er, who has always been strong, just because he sits on this throne, even my old mother can't survive..."
Two lines of clear tears slid down Xie Wanqing's cheeks and hung on his graceful mandible, reflecting the crystal clear colors under the illumination of the luminous pearls.
Xie Wanqing's use of the power of the demon has reached the state of transformation. Du Kang obviously did not feel any fluctuations in the spell, but the scene of the beauty crying in front of him still made his heart hurt.
Du Kang climbed up from the bed shirtless, knelt down on the gold bricks without even putting on his shoes, looked up and said to the woman with heartache.
"Empress Dowager, you can tell me what you are feeling. I am one of the three princes appointed by the late emperor during his lifetime, and he was a minister of the imperial court before the new emperor ascended the throne.
The family affairs of the emperor's family are the affairs of the world. As long as you speak up, I will definitely help you share your worries."
Hearing this, Xie Wanqing immediately lowered her head and looked at Du Kang. The excessive movement caused the tears of the devil on her chin to fall, and the drops fell on the night pearl, reflecting the dreamy light.
With a look of surprise on her childish face, she happily helped Du Kang up and said.
"The loyalty of the courtiers Yun'er left me can help me share my worries. Du Qing, are you really willing to help me with all your strength to implement the late emperor's last edict and let the real emperor succeed to the throne?"
Du Kang was helped to sit on the bed, and he immediately grasped the key to the woman's words.
"The Empress Dowager said that she wanted the real emperor to succeed to the throne. Could it be that the second prince passed down by the late emperor in his edict was not the real emperor who should ascend the throne?"
"The edict left by Yun'er was issued with my hands firmly in hand, so there is nothing wrong with it. He appointed the second prince to succeed him before his death, and I have no objection to this.
But when I returned to the palace just now, I received an unexpected news. Just when Indra attacked the capital and Baiyu Capital was in chaos, the second prince died in an assassin's assassination."
This news was beyond Du Kang's expectation. He asked tentatively with a solemn face.
"How could this happen? If the second prince dies, who should inherit the throne?"
The struggle for imperial power has always been cruel. Du Kang was mentally prepared for the death of the princes, but he really didn't expect that the second prince, whose name he had never heard of, didn't even survive a day before he was killed directly.
.
For the living people, it doesn't matter how the second prince died, nor does it matter who killed him. What really matters is that all the forces can finally and justifiably push the prince they support to the throne.
Xie Wanqing turned around and sat down next to Du Kang, sitting side by side on the edge of the bed, and said with hazy eyes.
"I am also worried about this matter. Originally, Yun'er asked the second prince to succeed him. In addition to the fact that the second prince's temperament was most similar to his, the more important reason was because the second prince's mother and concubine died early.
After the second prince becomes the emperor, I can continue to hold the Queen Mother's seal. The Queen cannot compete with me. This is Yun'er's filial piety to my mother.
But now that the second prince has died without any explanation, Yun'er's princes each have supporters among the officials, and each has his own mother.
Once they succeed to the throne, what awaits me, an old woman, will be the outcome of handing over the Queen Mother's treasure seal and being driven to a palace for retirement.
Taifu, what do you think I should do?"
The scent of orchid and musk penetrated the tip of Du Kang's nose, making his heart beat loudly.
Du Kang glanced sideways at this beautiful woman, and felt that Xie Wanqing was both like a seductive witch, making people feel hot all over, and like an ignorant deer jumping around in the forest that could easily get hurt, making people lovable.
While talking, Du Kang resisted the urge to hold the woman in his arms and said.
"...The royal family should not behave like this!"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "The Taifu had such an idea because he did not understand the rules of the royal family."
Xie Wanqing's emotions were in vain. With tears streaming down his face, he subconsciously grabbed Du Kang's hand and said urgently.
"My princes in Daliang were all raised by the clan after they were born. They could only see their mothers every seven days, and they could only see their emperor father once a month.
The emperor and his son have never had a true father-son relationship, only the courtesy of a monarch and his ministers. If father and son are like this, they will naturally not be close to my grandmother.
Mr. Du, I also need to think about my future!"
The two of them were sitting side by side on the bed. Xie Wanqing's cold little hands were soft and tender, the hot breath coming out of his mouth and nose was sweet, and his petite body was bumpy... All the colors that Xie Wanqing possessed seemed to seduce Du Kang.
's heart.
"Don't be afraid, the Queen Mother. I will definitely protect you to the death."
The desire from the heart was so uncontrollable that under the efforts of Xie Wanqing, a demon, Du Kang finally couldn't bear himself anymore and pulled the petite woman into his arms.
Du Kang hugged the sobbing woman, as if he was hugging the most cherished treasure in the world and owning the whole world. His body and mind burst out with a feeling of bliss that rushed straight into the sea of consciousness. He couldn't help but said with a face full of obsession.
"Which prince the Empress Dowager wants to ascend the throne, Du Kang will definitely support it. Even if you ascend the throne and proclaim yourself emperor, I will do my best to help you ascend the throne. As long as...as long as you can not be bullied, whatever Du Kang does will be worth it."
of."
Xie Wanqing, who was in Du Kang's arms, raised her head timidly, bit her lower lip lightly with her teeth, and said with hazy eyes.
"Master, you are so kind to me."
The promise Du Kang was tempted to say, combined with Xie Wanqing's response, seemed to complete a ritual. Without him noticing, a dark demon seed quietly emerged from the depths of his underworld.
Not only him, but even the thousands of gods, big and small, in his body, none of them noticed the arrival of the demon species.
[Tao Heart Demon Seed]: The demon is a demon that manipulates illusions and confuses people's hearts. Those who are seeded by the demon will become puppets controlled by the demon, or meals reserved.
After the demon seed was planted, Xie Wanqing immediately burst into tears and smiled, showing a smiling face.
There was no way she could do it, she was just too happy.
Because after being parasitized by the demon seed, Xie Wanqing can know what the parasitized person is thinking at all times, and can also use the demon seed to influence their thoughts and behaviors, making them work for him.
And after the parasite loses its use value, the demon seed can still take root, sprout and branch out in their body to produce a demon fruit, condensing part of the parasite's power into the demon fruit for her to devour.
At this critical moment of the struggle for the throne, the Taifu who controls one of the four seals is an extremely important help. How can Xie Wanqing be unhappy when he can take down the Taifu so easily.
Under the influence of the demon species, Du Kang's eyes were full of firm love. When he saw Xie Wanqing smiling, he also smiled.
"The Empress Dowager, do you also think that with the support of my ministers, you will not be bullied again?"
"That's natural. I believe in Taifu's ability."
Xie Wanqing lay in Du Kang's arms, wiped away her tears, and finally revealed her ultimate goal in what she thought was a safe environment.
"Everyone knows that, except for the royal bloodline of this country, no one with a foreign surname can be recognized by Dragon Qi. Taifu will never say such nonsense again in the future for me to be enthroned.
However, apart from Yun'er, I also have a daughter who is still alive. Since the grandchildren are unreliable, I can only support my daughter to ascend the throne and become the queen of the generation."
The luminous pearl in Xie Wanqing's hand shone softly on the two of them, making them look like a sweet couple whispering.
"When the discussion on the crown prince is held in the palace tomorrow, you and I will... cooperate like this... like this."
"I understand."
"It's getting late now. I've had a big battle with dragon energy before, and I'm very tired even if I think about it. I'll have a good rest in the remaining hours tonight. I'm afraid it will be difficult to rest in the next month."
After explaining tomorrow's plan in detail, Xie Wanqing, who had achieved his goal tonight, stood up and wanted to leave here and return to his palace.
But Du Kang suddenly tightened his arms and had no intention of letting the woman go.
"The Empress Dowager has said that we need to have a good rest, so why not sleep here tonight.
Chen is a master of massage, who is good at relaxing muscles and activating blood circulation. He is not only good at massaging the surface of the body, but also the inside of the body. He will definitely give the Queen Mother a good sleep."
"No, I have important things to do today, so I can't delay here any longer. I will definitely receive the master's massage skills some other time."
As Xie Wanqing spoke, he quietly aroused the demonic seeds in his body and used the demonic seeds to influence Du Kang's mind, lest he lose his virginity.
Ding--
Just like the crisp sound of morning bells and evening drums resounding in Dukang's Yin Shen, the fluctuations in the mind that can make people sober and apathetic quietly emanate from the demon seed and sweep through the entire Yin Shen.
But I don’t know what’s wrong with the devil. After this pure voice, Du Kang’s desire was not extinguished. Instead, it ignited an even more raging fire of desire like adding fuel to the fire.
Reflected in reality, Du Kang gasped and said with divine fire burning in his eyes.
"The Empress Dowager, I still don't know your name?"
Demons are a race that is not good at physical combat. Xie Wanqing tried his best, but was unable to break free from Du Kang's restraint. He could only lift up his pretty face from the messy bun and said.
"My maiden's name is Xie Wanqing. Master, please wake up first. I know your feelings, but we can't do that..."
"Wan Qing, don't be afraid, I will protect you!"
"Wait for me……"
Before Xie Wanqing could finish her words, something blocked her. After a while, she heard her voice continue to sound.
"Well, I am indeed feeling a little tired, so I would like to learn my master's massage skills."
Dang, grunt, grunt -
The night pearl fell to the ground and rolled along the gold bricks to the bottom of the bed, plunging the palace into darkness.
"Why is the Empress Dowager not afraid of the dark now?"
"You don't talk when you eat, and you don't talk when you sleep. Does Taifu talk so much during sleep?"
…
Du Kang, who was rushing deep into the spiritual energy sea, walked out of an evil god's cemetery that had just been plundered, trembling all over.
"Hiss—this ancient god of ice and fire is so powerful. The last move of the Nine Heavens of Ice and Fire was even a bit unbearable for my body."
With his body trembling slightly, Du Kang's body began to analyze the information sent from the calligrapher one by one.
"From the fact that Xie Wanqing planted a demon seed on me, we can boldly speculate that Ji Yun probably didn't tell his mother that I possess the two super-grade magic weapons 'Qian' and 'Qi'.
Otherwise, Xie Wanqing would never be stupid enough to take action against me who possesses two super-grade magic weapons to suppress my luck.
But nothing is absolute, and maybe Xie Wanqing, a devil who is good at playing with people's hearts, is playing a dangerous game with me..."
"To be able to be planted with a demonic seed by the Empress Dowager of Daliang, and to be able to invite the Empress Dowager to sleep with me, I should be able to get ahead in the Daliang court..."
"After Ji Yun's death, the inner treasury of the royal family was taken over by the Empress Dowager. With the friendly relationship between me and her, it shouldn't be difficult to get some jade money in the inner treasury for cultivation, right?
