Great Chu Dynasty.

It was midsummer, and waves of heat wave after layer of summer wind were blowing in. The ground and the visible green bricks and green tiles were scorched by the scorching sun on the top and glowed white.

On the branches by the roadside, the leaves were wilting, as if all the water had been drained.

Shengjing City and its surrounding areas have been in drought for eight consecutive months. The crops are hardly harvested.

And just when the civil and military officials were at a loss, two days ago, their national teacher watched the sky at night and revealed an astonishing message.

The reason why there hasn’t been a drop of rain in Da Chu’s capital for several months is that God is punishing Da Chu, but there is a way to solve this problem, that is to find a virtuous and virtuous daughter of Da Chu to sacrifice to the sky, and then the punishment of God can be relieved , Appoint the Dragon King to rain.

Since then, people in the court have been panicking, and they are all discussing, this lady, which official lady should be pushed out?

But the meaning of the national teacher's side was intentionally or unintentionally pointing to the most noble woman in Dachu, that is, the empress empress Ye Jinshu who is the mother of the world.

-

Night, very quiet.

The sky seemed to be covered with a gray curtain, with a few remnant stars dotted in the corners, which could not be seen clearly. Even at night, the air still carried the hot and scorching heat of the day.

Royal study.

The youngest emperor of Great Chu, Jiang Chengjue, looked at the following memorial admonishing the empress to be the candidate for this sacrifice, and he almost overturned the imperial case, "These old men, do you think I am dead?"

As long as he is in power for one day, it is impossible for his queen to be the tribute to the heaven.

National Division……

When Jiang Chengjue thought of Shen Xunfeng, his eyes flashed fiercely. He actually checked Shen Xunfeng's identity secretly. The other party was the third prince of Liang Kingdom, but he had been lurking in Dachu for many years—

The late emperor took a fancy to Shen Xunfeng, was impressed by his ability, trusted him even more, and gave him the supreme status and honor, which led to the fact that this young national teacher was known to everyone in their great Chu. of.

Not only has prestige in the court, but also a god-man in the eyes of the common people, and is believed in.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chengjue's eyes showed a bit of murderous intent. He sat on the throne of the emperor not long ago, and his foundation was not stable. Even with the status of the Ninth Five Lord, he still couldn't easily execute Shen Qunfeng.

Originally, he wanted to proceed step by step, and when he found more evidence that Shen Xunfeng was lurking in Dachu with impure purposes, he would make it public, and then use the laws of Dachu to execute this person.

However, he didn't expect that the other party would actually put his idea on his own queen. Why should he speak wildly, saying that the drought is God's punishment for Da Chu?

Oh, but a mystic!

He didn't believe a single word, and what's even more hateful is that Zhen Shen Xunfeng actually explicitly and secretly specified that A Jin should be a tribute to the heaven?

No one can swallow this breath in exchange for it!

Jiang Chengjue stood up, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe on his body, very mighty, he said in a calm voice to Xiaopingzi next to him, "Go to the National Teacher's Mansion."

"Yes, Your Majesty—"

However, before Jiang Chengjue walked out of the imperial study, there was a rush of footsteps outside, "Your Majesty, it's bad, a group of refugees flooded up outside the city, and they made a fuss in the city. people--"

Jiang Chengjue's face was so ugly that he took a deep breath, "Let Jin Yiwei handle it!"

"Your Majesty, Commander-in-Chief has already gone, but this group of refugees seemed to be ordered by someone on purpose. They didn't listen to persuasion at all. Instead, they fought with Jin Yiwei. As soon as our people made a move, they lay on the ground and yelled, saying that our imperial court The military officer tortured and killed them and these people..."

Jiang Chengjue had no choice but to deal with this matter first, "Bring those refugees who took the lead in fanning the flames to the palace, and I will interrogate them myself."

……

Fengyi Palace, in the sleeping hall.

Ye Jinshu couldn't sleep, and she had heard about the rumors outside today.

Worship the heavens——

Now, people outside are whispering, saying that she, the queen who is the mother of the world, is willing to be a tribute to the heaven for the sake of the people!

The noble woman stood up from the bed and sighed. Da Chu suffered from drought and the common people were in dire straits. As a queen, she was naturally worried. However, she did not believe in the saying of offering sacrifices to heaven.

National Teacher... Shen Qunfeng!

What on earth is he trying to do?

Ye Jinshu frowned, wondering if the emperor was still reviewing the memorial in the imperial study, she had something to discuss with him.

Suddenly, boom—

Ye Jinshu's heart skipped a beat, and when she looked towards the door of the bedroom, her pupils shrank instantly.

I saw Shen Xunfeng walking in wearing a black robe that dragged the floor. He stepped down from the white jade steps with a dignified posture, with one hand in front of his belly and the other behind his back. The corners of his raised eyes were slightly reddish, There was an indifferent look in his eyes, filled with treacherous and ever-changing deep meanings.

But when she looked at Ye Jinshu, the indifference in her eyes was replaced by a pathological possessive desire, "Empress, why are you still not resting so late? But you are waiting for someone?"

There was a wolf-like glint in Shen Qunfeng's eyes, which made Ye Jin feel relieved and the alarm bells rang.

"Presumptuous, this is Fengyi Palace, how can you come in? Get out of this Palace immediately!"

Ye Jinshu's whole body was trembling, this person is very dangerous——

"Your Majesty, you are so angry that you don't want to see this minister. If this minister sees you, you will feel uncomfortable." He walked towards Ye Jinshu step by step, feeling oppressed.

Ye Jinshu suffocated for breath. He could walk in like this, which means that the people outside were dealt with by him.

Damn!

"You still know that you are a courtier and this palace is the empress. If you still don't know etiquette, you are not afraid. The emperor will punish you." Ye Jinshu forced herself to calm down. She didn't understand what Shen Xunfeng was relying on?No matter what the reason is, he will be punished for entering and leaving the harem like this.

"Of course I'm afraid, but rather than being punished, I want to see the empress, and I want to talk to you, the empress, to reminisce about the old days, and to rub our ears together." After the words fell, Shen Qufeng had already walked up to Ye Jinshu, who was nervous. Tensioned, he picked up the vase next to him and threw it at his head, but was easily snatched away by Shen Qunfeng.

"Your Majesty, don't waste your efforts in vain. Today, I came prepared." He raised his hand, and suddenly, a very faint fragrance hit. Dodge, "Come on—"

"Your Majesty, you are so smart, you should have thought that the people outside have already been dealt with by me."

"You—Shen Xunfeng, what did you do to me?" Suddenly, Ye Jinshu felt that her body had lost its support, she couldn't stand up at all, and she had no strength in her body. Just when she was about to fall to the ground, a pair of strong arms Reached out, picked her up horizontally, and walked towards the bed...

"Your Majesty, don't worry, I just gave you a little medicine, and your body will not be able to use your strength for a while." He curled his lips into a smile, and the mandala between his brows was lifelike and extremely charming.
