Chapter 10 Pressure, I will die sooner or later anyway
This is an era where imperial power is supreme. If the emperor doesn't ask you to get up, you can only keep kneeling!
Ji Yunkai knew this very well, so even though she was reluctant, she knelt on the ground and waited for the emperor to call.
However, the emperor seemed to have not seen her and was still kneeling, and said to himself: "It's not like I haven't seen her before. Take off the mask."
Ji Yunkai asked: "Your Majesty, is this an imperial edict?" He obviously vomited when he saw her and asked her to take off her mask. The Emperor obviously had bad intentions.
"My words are of course an imperial edict." The young emperor had a smooth journey and was naturally extremely arrogant.
"My daughter obeys the decree." Ji Yunkai raised his head, took off his mask, and looked directly at the emperor without fear.
If you’re not afraid, just watch enough!
"You, you, you..." Even though he was mentally prepared, the emperor's face changed in shock.
Wearing the mask, Ji Yunkai was still the most beautiful woman in the apocalypse, but once he took off the mask, he suddenly looked as ugly as a yaksha. This gap was too big, and the emperor could not accept it.
"Your Majesty, are you okay?" Ji Yunkai spoke openly, without a trace of timidity or anxiety, as if there were no injuries on her face.
What kind of woman can be calm and composed despite having a Yaksha face? Not caring at all?
Obviously before, he would still look uneasy, timid and inferior, but now he seems to be fine, without any trace of gloom.
What happened to Ji Yunkai? Why did he think about it so quickly?
"Bold, who dares you to look directly at Long Yan!" How could a majestic emperor be frightened by an ugly girl!
"Your Majesty, please forgive me." Ji Yunkai sneered and lowered his head.
She could understand the emperor's shock. If it hadn't been for the original owner, this black spot would have appeared on the emperor's face. The emperor didn't want to vomit when he saw this black spot.
"Since it is your first offense, I won't argue with you." The emperor's face was cold and unhappy: "I heard that you hurt Ji Lan, is this the case?"
"No!" Ji Yunkai rejected without hesitation.
"How dare you lie in front of me." The emperor threw out his cup without any warning. Although it didn't hit Ji Yunkai, it was really scary.
It's a pity that Ji Yunkai is not scared. She really didn't notice the emperor's quarrel: "Your Majesty, I did not hurt Ji Lan."
"If you hadn't hurt Lan'er, where did the injuries on Lan'er's face and body come from? Did she fall by herself?" The emperor was furious. He had always hated Ji Yunkai, and he hadn't liked it since he was a child.
"Returning to the emperor, Ji Lan's injuries were indeed caused by her own fall. She tripped when crossing the threshold, broke the bridge of her nose, and crooked her chin. As for her waist injury, if I remember correctly, it should be
It was Mrs. Ji who caused it." Ji Yunkai did not pay attention to the emperor's anger at all and narrated calmly.
"Strong words, if you hadn't thrown the vase and injured Lan'er, how could Lan'er have fallen and been injured?" Obviously, the emperor knew what happened in the Ji family.
"Your Majesty, I didn't throw the vase. If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can ask my father." Ji Yunkai told lies with her eyes open, but she was not afraid of being exposed.
Family scandals should not be made public. Ji Dishi is such a face-conscious person, and he will help her cover it up. Otherwise, if the news of her suicide really comes out, Ji Dishi will not have a good life.
"Okay, I'll record this for now." The emperor had already asked Master Ji before, and Master Ji's words were almost the same as Ji Yunkai's. If not for this, he would not have asked Ji Yunkai at all and directly issued the order.
Just reduce the penalty.
"I sincerely ask the Emperor to investigate clearly and clear my name as soon as possible." She acted obediently because she got an advantage, which meant that Ji Yun was in trouble, but the Emperor couldn't do anything to her now.
The emperor suppressed the impatience in his heart and said: "Yunkai, where is the Fengpei? Didn't you say you want me to get it myself? I'm here now, why don't you hand over the Fengpei quickly."
Sure enough...it's Feng Pei.
Ji Yunkai was not surprised at all, and of course she was not in a hurry.
"Your Majesty, the Phoenix Pei belongs only to the future Queen of Tianqi. I can only give it to Queen Tianqi." The Fengpei is not only symbolic, but its practical value is much higher than the symbolic meaning, so the Emperor deliberately wanted the Fengpei.
"I have not yet established a queen, you can just leave it to me." It was precisely because of the great value of the phoenix that the emperor was reluctant to marry Ji Yunkai, but he never thought of making someone else his queen.
"Your Majesty, the Phoenix Pei can only be given to Queen Tianqi." Ji Yunkai did not explain, but just repeated this sentence.
The emperor was extremely angry and immediately slapped a big hat on Ji Yunkai: "Bold, the phoenix pendant belongs to my Tianqi royal family. Do you want to keep it for yourself?"
"I don't dare to embezzle it for myself. I just follow the instructions of the virtuous queen." The virtuous queen is the mother of the current saint, who has passed away.
"Come here, search for me!" The young emperor was not a good-tempered person, and Ji Yunkai's repeated excuses made him angry.
"Your Majesty, are you sure you want the guards to search me?" Ji Yunkai picked up the orchid mask on the side and put it on. He stopped kneeling and stood up to look at the Emperor.
As soon as the guard walked in, he saw the emperor confronting Ji Yunkai, and for a moment he didn't know whether to step forward.
The emperor ignored Ji Yunkai and directly ordered: "What are you still doing? Search!"
"Yes!" The guard stepped forward, but unfortunately he only took one step when he heard Ji Yunkai say: "Your Majesty, I am not afraid of death!"
"What do you mean?" The emperor's face changed slightly. The guards did not dare to move rashly when they saw this. They froze in place, either moving forward or retreating.
Ji Yunkai said calmly: "Your Majesty, you should know the rules of the Yanbei Palace. I only have a few days to live after marrying the Yanbei King. If you force me, you are just forcing me to die early." In the eyes of everyone,
, she is a dying person, so no one will care about her, and no one will treat her as a human being.
When a person dies, there is nothing left. No matter how dissatisfied or angry she is, she will never be able to take revenge in the future.
"Are you threatening me?" The young emperor laughed angrily, looking at Ji Yunkai as if he were looking at a dead person.
Ji Yunkai had no doubt that if possible, the emperor would definitely order her to be cut into pieces.
"No, I'm just telling you, Your Majesty, that I will die sooner or later, and I'm not afraid of death. So... don't force me, all of you." If she dies, the Emperor will have nothing to gain.
The founding queen of Tianqi, after her own son died tragically at the hands of a palace woman, built a phoenix guard that was not controlled by the emperor. As long as she was the queen of Tianqi, she could use the phoenix pendant to mobilize the phoenix guard to protect the queen and the queen's legitimate son.
Of course, the founding empress had made it clear that the phoenix and the position of queen were indispensable. It would be useless to have the queen without the phoenix; it would be useless to have the phoenix without being the queen.
As for how powerful Feng Wei is, Ji Yunkai doesn't know. She only knows that the queens who have received Feng Pei can live peacefully until old age and die, and will not be in vain after death, nor will they be deposed by the emperor. But it is not that big.
At least he cannot compete with the emperor, cannot influence the court, and cannot decide the succession of the throne.
Ji Yunkai didn't understand why the emperor wanted to take back Fengpei, but since the emperor wanted Fengpei wholeheartedly, he would not force her to death. Because once she died, the emperor would never be able to get Fengpei... (To be continued)
