The Phoenix Arises

Chapter 199: The final punishment

Views:

In the imperial study room, Xuanyuan Lie was reviewing the memorial, and Eunuch Hu was waiting on him carefully.

Guo Huier rushed all the way to the royal study, followed by several palace maids and eunuchs who were also walking in a hurry.

The palace maids and eunuchs outside the imperial study immediately bowed and saluted when they saw Guo Huier, "See you, Queen Mother."

Guo Huier ignored the court ladies and eunuchs who were saluting. She wanted to enter the imperial study, but was stopped by two eunuchs outside the imperial study.

Seeing this, the eldest palace maid behind Guo Huier immediately stepped forward and glared at the two eunuchs and scolded, "You are so bold, you dare to stop the queen, don't you want your head?"

The sharp voice was very arrogant.

Xuanyuan Lie in the imperial study frowned suddenly when he heard the sharp voice. He glanced at Eunuch Hu beside him and said displeasedly, "What's going on? Who is outside?"

Upon hearing this, Eunuch Hu immediately bowed and said, "She seems to be the Queen."

He just seemed to hear the voice of Wen Xin, the eldest maid next to the Queen.

When Xuanyuan Lie heard this, his frown deepened, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his dark eyes. He threw down the memorial in his hand and walked out of the imperial study.

Upon seeing this, Eunuch Hu immediately followed.

Outside the royal study, the two eunuchs did not show any fear when they heard Wen Xin's reprimand.

One of the eunuchs bowed to Guo Huier and said, "The emperor has decreed that no one is allowed to enter the imperial study without summons."

Upon hearing this, Guo Huier glared at the eunuch who spoke with a pair of triangular eyes, and said angrily, "Wen Xin, slap your mouth."

"Yes, Queen." Upon hearing this, Wen Xin immediately stepped forward and slapped the eunuch hard twice.

Xuanyuan Lie came out and happened to see this scene. Two balls of anger flashed out of his dark eyes. He raised his hand and slapped Wen Xin on the face with a mysterious force.

"Pah!" Wen Xin didn't even know what happened, and he was already slapped against a pillar on the side.

Wen Xin felt a burst of blood and energy spurting up from his heart. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.

Everyone was also startled by this sudden scene. When they saw Xuanyuan Lie with a gloomy face, they all knelt down and said, "Meet the Emperor."

Guo Hui'er was also frightened by Xuanyuan Lie's slap. She didn't care about the embarrassment and immediately said to Xuanyuan Lie Fu Shen, "I am here to see the emperor."

Xuanyuan Lie stared at Guo Huier with a pair of dark eyes, making Guo Huier's half-crouched body become extremely stiff and she broke out in a cold sweat.

"Did the queen just want to resist the decree?" The deep voice was filled with terrifying anger.

When Guo Huier heard this, she immediately knelt down in fear and said in a trembling voice, "I don't dare, I, my concubine."

Xuanyuan Lie looked at Guo Huier who was kneeling on the ground, a glimmer of light flashing in his dark eyes.

"Come here, drag that bitch down to me and beat her to death with sticks." He stared at Guo Huier, but it was Wen Xin who was dealing with her.

Upon hearing this, the guards on the side immediately stepped forward and dragged Wen Xin down.

As soon as Xuanyuan Mo and Duan Muxi arrived outside the Imperial Study Room, they saw two guards dragging an unconscious palace maid out. They glanced at Guo Huier who was kneeling on the ground and Xuanyuan Lie who was looking angry, and they felt a little understanding.

When Xuanyuan Lie saw Xuanyuan Mo and Duan Mu Xi, his originally angry face immediately softened a lot, "Mo'er and Xi'er are here."

Xuanyuan Mo didn't answer, but Duan Muxi couldn't help but ignore him. He stepped forward and bowed slightly to Xuanyuan Lie, "See my father."

Xuanyuan Lie looked at Duan Muxi and couldn't help but look at her belly. He immediately wanted to help her get up, but felt it was inappropriate. He turned to Xuanyuan Mo and said, "Hurry up and help your wife get up."

Xuanyuan Mo raised the corners of his lips slightly when he heard this, and directly pulled Duanmu Xi to his side.

Guo Huier, who was kneeling on the ground, was originally afraid that Xuanyuan Lie would punish her, but now that she saw Xuanyuan Mo and Duan Muxi, she immediately forgot her fear.

Seeing Xuanyuan Lie's preference for Duan Muxi, Guo Huier immediately felt angry in her heart. Thinking of the purpose of her coming here, her back stiffened even more, and she stood up regardless of Xuanyuan Lie not asking her to stand up.

"Your Majesty, I have something to dissatisfy."

Xuanyuan Lie looked at Guo Huier after hearing this, and saw that Guo Huier actually stood up on her own. The faces of Xuanyuan Mo and Duan Muxi that had softened immediately became gloomy again.

Guo Hui'er didn't pay attention to Xuanyuan Lie's ugly face, and said to herself, "I heard that the emperor has decreed that Xuanyuan Mo, the scoundrel, will host this year's sacrifice ceremony."

"Pah!" Before Guo Huier could finish her words, she was slapped hard by Xuanyuan Lie.

The palace maids and eunuchs who were kneeling on the ground did not dare to express their anger, and all lowered their heads. It’s true that the Queen, knowing that the Emperor loves Prince Zhan the most, actually calls Prince Zhan a scoundrel in front of the Emperor. Isn’t this a way to seek death

Xuanyuan Lie's face at this moment was no longer as simple as gloomy, but looked furious, and his scarlet eyes seemed to want to eat people.

This damn woman dared to insult his Mo'er. Not only did she insult Mo'er, she also insulted his Yan'er, the woman he loved most and owed the most to in his life. He just executed the palace maid just to remind her, but he didn't expect that she was not afraid of death at all.

Duan Muxi also glared at Guo Hui'er angrily. This woman dared to insult her Xue. If it wasn't for the sake of her father, she would have killed her.

Xuanyuan Mo, on the other hand, acted like a fine person, without anger or anger.

He had heard words like "evil breeder" and "half-demon" a lot when he was a child. He didn't care at all what these unimportant people thought of him. On the contrary, seeing his father and his wife protecting him so much, he felt very warm in his heart.

Guo Huier caressed her face and looked at Xuanyuan Lie in disbelief. He actually hit her. She had been married to him since he was a prince. Although he could not be said to be doting on her over the years, he had never said anything harsh to her. , and he didn't even touch her. He didn't expect that he would hit her today because of that evil bastard Xuanyuan Mo.

"You did it for that evil"

"Pa" came another crisp slap, this time Xuanyuan Lie's slap was filled with profound energy.

Guo Huier's face instantly swelled up like a bun, and bright red blood flowed from the corners of her lips. He fell to the ground slumped, his head hung low, not knowing what he was thinking.

Even after slapping Guo Hui'er twice, Xuanyuan Lie was still angry. He glanced at Guo Hui'er who was lying on the ground and said angrily, "The queen has lost her virtue and will be imprisoned in Le'an Palace for life."

Hearing this, Guo Huier suddenly raised her head and looked at Xuanyuan Lie in shock.

Xuanyuan Lie's dark eyes flashed with murderous intent. If it weren't for She'er's sake, he would kill her directly.

Seeing the murderous look in Xuanyuan Lie's eyes, Guo Huier no longer held out any hope, and a sarcastic smile appeared on her lips. What's the difference between being imprisoned for life and being thrown into the cold palace? Does he care about that woman that much? How long had that woman been with him, two years at most, could it compare to the relationship she had with him for more than twenty years

She never believed how affectionate he would be for that woman, until today she finally understood that no matter how long she stayed with him, it would never be as good as the two years that woman stayed with him.

He could even stay away from other women for twenty years for that woman. In fact, he no longer favored her after she had a son, so she was happy that he had not favored other women for so many years, but none of this was for her. , but for that witch.

The news that Guo Huier was imprisoned for life soon spread to Yonghe Palace. When Zhou Manyun heard the news, he just narrowed his eyes and wondered what he was thinking.

The sacrificial ceremony was not affected by Guo Huier's incident and was held as scheduled. With the Queen's presence, no one dared to object to Xuanyuan Mo's hosting of the sacrificial ceremony.

Duan Muxi did not follow him to the Tiger Roar Palace, but accompanied Xuanyuan Lie to play chess in the Imperial Study Room.

After the sacrificial ceremony, Xuanyuan Mo went to the Imperial Study Room and took Duan Muxi away.

Xuanyuan Mo did not take Duanmu Xi back to the Palace of War, but to the Tiger Roar Palace.

Duanmu Xi looked at the majestic palace in front of her and frowned, "Axue, why did you bring me here?"

If she guessed correctly, the Tiger Roar Hall should be the same place as the Fengming Hall and the Longyin Hall. As a place where the Xuanyuan family worships their ancestors, even if she has married A Xue, she cannot enter as a person with a foreign surname.

"Let's talk after we go in." Xuanyuan Mo directly carried Duan Muxi to the Tiger Roar Hall.

Duan Muxi only hesitated for a moment before following Xuanyuan Mo into the Tiger Roar Hall. Since Axue can bring her in, there is nothing to be afraid of.

Zhou Manyun knew as soon as Xuanyuan Mo and Duan Muxi entered the Tiger Roar Hall.

Zhou Manyun's charming eyes narrowed slightly, a sneer curled up on her lips, and she raised her hand to summon her personal maid.

The Tiger Roaring Hall is similar to the Fengming Hall and the Longyin Hall, with the same solemn atmosphere and the same spaciousness.

Xuanyuan Mo took Duan Muxi directly to the row of white tiger emperors. Duan Muxi originally thought that he would kneel down and worship, but he didn't expect that he just frowned for a while, then waved his sleeves, and in an instant a white teleportation array appeared in front of him. In front of the two of them.

Duanmuxi blinked, feeling a little magical. Before she could speak, Xuanyuan Mo took her into the teleportation array.

In just a few breaths, the two of them arrived in another space.

Duanmuxi looked at the vast white area and stroked her arm unconsciously.

Xuanyuan Mo saw Duanmu Xi caressing her arm, and immediately took out a black cloak from the storage ring and put it on Duanmu Xi.

He gently hugged Duanmu Xi into his arms and transported the profound energy into Duanmu Xi's body. "How are you? Are you feeling better?"

Duanmuxi nodded, "Much better."

It is indeed much colder here than outside. In fact, the White Tiger Country is already cold enough. I didn't expect that there is a place even colder than the White Tiger Country.

"Is this where the white tiger beast lives?" Although she asked Xuanyuan Mo, Duanmuxi had a definite answer in her heart. The teleportation array and this other dimension just met her in Fengming Palace and Longyin Palace. Like Hong Ling and Qing Feng, this should be the place where the white tiger beast stays.

When Xuanyuan Mo heard this, the corners of his lips raised slightly, "My lady is very smart."

Xuanyuan Mo said, turning around and looking at the vast white snow, "White Tiger, you haven't come out yet."

The sound seemed to have the effect of ice and snow, and it seemed even more cold on the white snow.
