Goddess Emperor Phoenix: Rebirth Against Heaven

Chapter 242: The Empress Phoenix: Rebirth Against Heaven Part 242

Before entering the main hall, I felt a strong sense of oppression. The originally bustling and prosperous world became extremely solemn at this moment. Huang'er narrowed her eyes and walked towards the center of the hall solemnly. Every step seemed to be stepping on soft clouds.

There were many figures in the hall, and everyone's eyes were fixed on her. Huang'er looked around and couldn't help but sneer. These so-called ministers had long been corroded by power and were left with only a hollow shell. They said they supported the empress, but in fact they only wanted to control the government and squeeze the people's fat.

"I'm here." Huang'er spoke lightly, her voice steady and unquestionable.

"The Empress has arrived. We welcome her respectfully." The ministers knelt down and responded respectfully.

Huang'er nodded slightly and sat down on the throne casually. Her mood was terribly calm at the moment, without any trace of the solemnity just now. On the contrary, she was even a little bored. Although these ministers were slick, she had already seen through them. Their tricks were no longer important to her.

"Today I have something important to discuss with you." Huang Er said calmly, her eyes sweeping across everyone's faces, "There have been frequent border wars recently, I wonder if you have any good ideas?"

As soon as the voice fell, the hall fell silent. The ministers looked at each other, obviously at a loss as to what to do about this problem. Huang Er snorted coldly and continued: "Isn't there anyone among you who is capable of solving this problem?"

"Empress... Please calm down. We are currently working on a solution." An old minister explained in a panic.

Huang Er sneered: "Research? Haha, I really want to know what you are researching."

The ministers lowered their heads involuntarily, fearing that they would be glared at by the empress. After a long while, the young minister who had been silent finally spoke up: "Empress, how about... sending me to inspect the border in person and make specific arrangements after understanding the situation?"

Huang Er stared at him for a long time before she slowly spoke: "Okay, you can go."

"Then...then I will set off right away." The young minister responded hurriedly, stood up, saluted, and left in a hurry.

After he left, Huang Er glanced coldly at the other ministers and said calmly: "You can leave. This is the end of my stay today."

"Yes, Queen." The ministers retreated in a hurry, fearing that they would offend the Queen again.

After watching everyone leave, Huang Er frowned slightly and fell into deep thought. Since she ascended the throne, government affairs have always been a headache for her. These so-called ministers are all mediocre people who only know how to scheme for power. They don't know how to benefit the people, but only know how to support the empress for fame and fortune.

Huang Er sighed and slowly closed her eyes. She originally wanted to seek happiness for the people in this position, but now it seems that it is not easy to achieve this goal. These ministers have undoubtedly become her stumbling blocks.

After an unknown amount of time, a burst of hurried footsteps came from outside the palace, interrupting Huang'er's meditation. She opened her eyes slightly, and saw the young minister running in breathlessly.

"Empress, something big has happened!" he said anxiously.

Huang Er raised her eyebrows and looked at him coldly: "What's the matter?"

"The border troops suffered a sudden attack and suffered heavy losses. I went to check it out in person and found that it was actually the rebels within our country who did it!" said the young minister nervously.

Huang Er frowned slightly, and after a moment's silence, she slowly spoke: "Since they are internal rebels, their purpose must be complicated. Go and find out their origins and purpose. I want results within three days."

"Yes, Queen." The young minister responded quickly and then hurriedly retreated.

Looking at his departing figure, Huang'er's eyes darkened. To say that this young man is still a capable minister, at least he is much better than those mediocre people who only know how to flatter. However, this rebellion may not be as simple as it seems.

Three days later, the young minister returned to the palace as promised and reported the results of the investigation to Huang'er.

"Empress, after our investigation, we found that the masterminds of this rebellion were actually some powerful people in the court. They joined forces with the border troops to rebel with the aim of overthrowing the rule of the Empress and establishing their own independent regime." The young minister said in a serious tone.

Huang Er's face darkened upon hearing this, and she said coldly: "I knew that these mediocre ministers must have other plans. In this case, I will completely eliminate these harmful ministers."

"However, Queen, although these ministers have a lot of soldiers under their command, they are not as strong as the border troops. We must act with caution and never act rashly." The young minister reminded.

Huang Er pondered for a moment, then said calmly: "In this case, it will be up to you to deal with these traitors. I will send elite troops to support you with all your strength, so you should coordinate well."

"As you wish, Queen." The young minister responded respectfully.

Watching him leave, Huang'er narrowed her eyes slightly. It was ridiculous that these traitors dared to covet her kingdom. She must catch them all in one fell swoop and would never show mercy.

At the same time, fierce battles were taking place in the border military camp. The rebels were numerous and good at using the terrain, causing the border soldiers to retreat step by step. Finally, in the fierce fighting, the commander-in-chief of the border army was shot and fell.

"With the death of the commander-in-chief, we are losing ground. I'm afraid it will be hard to hold on..." a soldier said sadly.

"Don't give up! We must persevere to the end and never let these traitors succeed!" another soldier shouted.

At this moment, a thunderous shout suddenly rang out: "Lead the army, come to support us quickly!"

Suddenly, a nimble female cavalryman appeared over the battlefield, covering the entire battlefield like a gust of wind. Holding a long sword, with a cold light in her eyes, she led the cavalryman to charge at the enemy formation again and again, causing the rebels to be defeated.

"Who is that? How could he lead the cavalry to such a fierce killing!" The border soldiers could not help but be shocked.

"She is the commander-in-chief of the Empress. It is said that she is the best hunter who has never been defeated. She must have come here at the instruction of the Empress!" said an old veteran excitedly.

At this moment, the empress's commander rode up on horseback. She glanced at the devastated battlefield and said calmly, "My fellow soldiers, the empress has ordered that instead of lingering here, you should follow me to annihilate those traitors!"

"With the help of the Empress, we will be able to wipe out the rebels and seek justice for the Empress!" The soldiers shouted and followed the Empress's commander to rush to the enemy line.

In this way, under the leadership of the female emperor's former commander, the border army quickly turned the tide of the war and wiped out the rebels. During this period, the female emperor's former commander rode alone into the enemy camp, relying on his superb swordsmanship and amazing strength, and killed his way into the enemy camp and directly attacked Huanglong.

When the battle was over, her body was covered in blood and dust, but she was still heroic, like an inviolable god of war. Seeing her so majestic, all the soldiers could not help but surrender to her.

"Long live the Empress's Commander!" They cheered, winning the battle for her.

The commander in front of the empress nodded slightly after hearing this. Then she looked stern and said coldly: "My fellow soldiers, as far as I know, the masterminds of this rebellion are the powerful people in the court. The empress has ordered that they must be caught in one fell swoop, and there must be no mercy!"

"Yes, sir!" The soldiers were immediately excited and shouted as they prepared to set off.

"You guys rest here first, I'll go ahead." The empress's commander said lightly, then turned and left.

Looking at her heroic figure, the soldiers could not help but stand in awe. This woman was undoubtedly a true god of war, and they could not help but submit to her might.

When the female empress's commander rushed to the imperial city alone, Huang'er was sitting in the palace, staring coldly at a memorial on the table. This was sent by the young minister, and it recorded the whole picture of the rebellion in detail.

Looking at the treachery of those ministers, Huang Er sneered. It was ridiculous that they dared to usurp her throne. However, it seemed that this rebellion also gave her an opportunity to deal with these harmful ministers.

At this moment, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the palace, and then the palace maid reported: "Empress, the commander-in-chief has returned and is waiting for an audience in the outer hall."

Huang Er nodded slightly, then stood up to greet him. She saw the empress's commander standing outside the palace, his military uniform covered in dust, but still looking heroic.

"Empress." She bowed respectfully.

"Well, I know you won. What about those traitors?" Huang'er asked indifferently.

"I have already sent people to capture them all, and they are being escorted back to the palace." The empress's commander replied.

Huang Er nodded slightly and said, "Very good, I will discuss with you how to deal with those traitors."

"As you wish, Empress." The Empress's commander responded respectfully.

Seeing her so serious and responsible, Huang Er couldn't help but feel a little admiration in her heart. She is indeed a rare talent, worthy of her cultivation. But I don't know if she can be loyal to me, instead of just seeking power like those ministers.

Soon, the rebellious ministers were escorted back to the palace. Looking at their embarrassed appearance, Huang'er sneered in her heart. These people are really ridiculous. They actually thought they could shake her kingdom. It's really wishful thinking.

"You despicable villains, you actually dared to commit treason, you deserve to be put to death!" Huang'er said coldly, her eyes as cold as ice.

"Empress, we just want to... want to..." The ministers looked terrified and made incoherent excuses.

"What are you thinking? Want to usurp my throne? Ha, that's ridiculous!" Huang Er sneered, and then his eyes became stern, "Since you have committed such a heinous crime, there is only one outcome for you!"

After that, she waved her hand to signal the imperial commander: "Take them to be beheaded!"

"Yes, Queen." The imperial commander responded respectfully, and then took his men to take the ministers away.

After watching them leave, Huang Er let out a breath. The series of rebellions finally came to an end, but she also knew that this was just the beginning. Next, she had to be more cautious and guard against those powerful people who were eyeing her covetously.

Just as Huang'er was lost in thought, a palace maid came in respectfully and reported: "Empress, the border troops have all returned to the capital and are waiting outside the city to be reviewed."

Huang Er nodded slightly, then stood up and headed out of the city. She saw a nimble army lined up neatly, looking heroic. Huang Er looked around and finally caught a glimpse of the figure of the empress's commander in the crowd.

She walked slowly to the Imperial Commander and said calmly: "I am very satisfied with your performance this time."

"I will obey the Empress' orders," the Empress's commander said respectfully, "but there are still many doubts about this rebellion, and I need to investigate further."

Huang Er nodded slightly and said, "Very good, then you will be responsible for this matter."
