Starfall

Chapter 90 The Emperor

There are more and more ministers in the main hall of the Night King's Palace, and those who can be personally received by General Zhentian in this hall are at least princesses, ministers of the imperial capital! As for the nobles in other places, they are all placed in the side hall! After all, the rank of Mengyang nobles is still very strict! In some places, nobles can't even see emperors in their lives.

The nobles in their big belly pushed the cups and exchanged cups, toasted the generals and presented precious gifts one by one! As they said flattery, they carefully observed the general's expression, afraid that the gift was not precious enough to be given to the general's heart.

"General, you will be the celebrity around your majesty in the future. Please say more words beside your majesty. My position as a minister of the people is very unstable. The new majesty greets the emperor and a courtier. I'm afraid I won't even see the sun tomorrow..." The sad nobleman complained to the general in a low voice. I don't know that the general is not in the emperor these days. Now one-third of the ministers in the dynasty have been killed, and all of them have been killed. Whether they are honest or corrupt officials, whether they support the new emperor or not, they will all be killed! Every day, someone disappears and changes into a new face... Now it may be my turn one day... Alas..." He sighed deeply, and his eyebrows were cloudy, and then said, "The gift to the general today is a night pearl that recently came out of the East China Sea. It is as big as a fist. I ordered people to polish and throw it. The light, with the ginned base, has been handed over to your servants in the palace. I would like to ask the general to say more words in front of your majesty, and I am very grateful!"

The general smiled faintly and said, "Well, after all, accompanying you is like a tiger... It's not easy to be an official in the court. It's not easy!" Saying that he should send the minister of the people to the main hall, he did not say help him or refuse, so he spoke with a smile on his face. This is the way of being an official, and it is also the result of his dealings with these people for so many years.

Ye Yuanhong whispered beside him, "Father, I haven't seen these imperial ministers to be so polite to you before. Aren't they very retracted when they see you? Now..."

"Humph" Ye Mingshan sneered, "These people are all maggots of tarbias and tend to be attached to the situation. In the past, Mengyang's aristocrats were divided into two types, one was the imperial capital aristocrats and the other was the prince aristocrats. The imperial aristocrats were compladened by being close to the royal family and living in the heart of the empire, and looked down on the princes and nobles. The princes and nobles felt that the imperial aristocrats were all people who danced and confused the court, and also looked down on them. It is divided into two factions. One faction is a literary minister led by Prime Minister Ling Fenglie, and the other faction is a general led by me. Often these two rows of disputes can influence the emperor's decision. This is also the reason why the empire has been unable to respond effectively in the early stage of the invasion!"

Ye Yuanhong felt a dry throat and never knew that Mengyang's high-level relationship was so chaotic. He has always grown up under the aura of his father, General Zhentian, and has not suffered any grievances. If he really wants to deal with these alone, he may be so anxious and embarrassed.

"The new emperor is determined to change such a scene, so you can see that in just one month, the princes of Mengyang are leaving the night kingdom, and most of the princes and kings have died. A large number of imperial ministers were also killed, especially when Ling Fenglie, the prime minister of Zuo, even skipped the basic steps of making the imperial edict and handing it over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice and killed him directly! The new emperor is determined to control every detail of Mengyang, and the imperial power is superior! The minister just asked me to say a few good words in front of the emperor? Do you think I, the general of the town, is beautiful? Mastering Mengyang's most powerful light armored brigade, he is the most powerful general, the emperor of the army, and has received the emperor's Jiuxi... The scenery is infinite? But the night country is only a few hundred kilometers away from the imperial capital. Do you think the emperor will tolerate me to hold heavy troops near the heart of Mengyang? Maybe one day, the butcher's knife of the royal family will fall on the head of the Night Kingdom. You should know all this!" The general said in a heavy voice, the higher he stood, the more afraid he was to fall down. This was how he felt. The new emperor was too young and arrogant. Mengyang's centuries-old rules were broken without fear, which made him very uneasy. Ye Yuanhong is only two years younger than Emperor Lin Xi, but regardless of means, mind and courage are far worse!

Up to now, the general still remembers that Emperor Lin Xi wore Emperor Shinra's armor and fought to defend the city with a sword! He fought head-on with the king of Chinasi. He cut off one arm of the king of Chinasi. Although he was also seriously injured, his courage was enough to compare with the emperors of Liu Nian and the emperor of Bihai! Finally, when dealing with the body of the war dead warrior, Emperor Lin Xi roared loudly beside the burning body, and the shock from the depths of his soul was unforgettable in his life. At that time, I only felt that this emperor was the hegemon of heaven and earth, because of his existence, which made heaven non-human!

But when they are old, they will give the power to Yuanhong and Xingchen. Can they afford to face such an emperor? If the emperor attacked them at that time, could they stand it? The general didn't expect it to be so far away, so he had to slowly penetrate the two children into the way of being an official!

"Oh, Minister of Salt Transport, come here!" The general smiled cheerfully, and the whole hall was full of his Haipai laughter, extremely bold, "This is my son. Come on, I've met Uncle Wang!" With that, he introduced Ye Yuanhong to the imperial minister.

The Minister of Salt Transport arched his hand and said flattering words with a flattering smile on his face. Whether these compliments come from the bottom of their hearts or not, everyone loves to listen to them, and the people who listen to them feel relieved! This is human nature! Like greedy scavengers, the faster it decays in the turbid reality, the more flattering it is, and in the end, there is only an empty body...

But in the hall, two pairs of resentful eyes stared at Ye Yuanhong and his son at the door of the hall. Their eyes are also as dark as night, but there is more envy and hatred. Their eyes seemed to speot fire, and seemed to shoot countless arrows with bronze and iron poison, shooting them devastated.

"Hmm, Ye Mingshan... What qualifications do you have to get this seat? It's just because you are a disciple of the clan that you can inherit the position of Lord of the Night Kingdom and General Zhentian. This is your good life! Humph, but really, which point can you beat me? Ye Qingshan said hatefully.

His son Ye Xinghan clearly felt the huge hatred in his father's heart and couldn't help getting angry. The centipede-like scar on his face made his face more and more ferocious. He knew that his father had two most difficult things to let go of in recent years. One was that 12 years ago, Ye Mingshan insisted on marrying an unknown but beautiful mysterious woman as the queen, abolishing Ling Yunyao's throne, and also abolishing the throne of Ye Yuanhong's son. At that time, the strongest opposition to this matter was not Ling Fenglie, but his grandmother, that is his father and Ye Mingshan's mother... At that time, not long after Ye Mingshan became the lord of the country, he was young and strong and insisted on marrying this woman of unknown origin. After all, such a thing is very taboo among the nobles! It damages the reputation of the family, especially the Ye family, which has been passed down for more than 300 years, almost equivalent to the history of Mengyang!

In the end, his grandmother was pissed off! After this incident, Ye Qingshan basically stood opposite to Ye Mingshan, and the contradiction between the clan and the division became deeper and deeper.

Another thing that is difficult to let go is the inheritance method of the lord. The inheritance of the night lord has always been the most eye-catching. Because it is not only a title, but also the inheritance of the supreme military power of 'General Zhentian'. But from the current status of Yeming Mountain, we can see how terrible the name of "General Zhentian" is! But the throne of the Lord of the Night Kingdom has always been inherited by the clan, just because he was born two years later than Ye Mingshan, and he was a disciple of the family. And the status of the lord and general can only belong to Yeming Mountain.

But he can fight immediately and dance under the horse. Which one is not as good as Ye Mingshan? Why do you give such a dazzling position to people because of the separation of the clan? Especially twelve years ago, when Ye Mingshan abolished the queen Ling Yunyao at that time, it also meant the abolition of the throne of Ye Yuanhong's son. Ye Yuanhong was a branch disciple. The clan will be the eldest son of the woman of unknown origin, that is, the current son of Ye Xingchen. When he saw Ye Mingshan wantonly change the throne of the son, his heart became more and more unbearable, and his resentment became deeper and deeper.

He looked down at his son, stroked the ferocious scar like a centipede on his face, and said, "Xing Han, look at their smiling faces and remember those two faces. They are the culprits who took away everything from their father. You have to remember their disgusting appearance!" His voice is very light, but it is as fascinating as a magic spell. The scars on your face will accompany you for a lifetime, so you have to remember who left you such pain and who is laughing at your broken face! Use your own ability to prove that the separated children are by no means worse than the children of the clan family! As long as there is a chance to pull the clan into the water, even if it is a little chance, you can't let it go, you know?"

The night star nodded. He couldn't help touching the huge scar on his face from his left eye to his right cheek... He was originally an extremely handsome child, but now he doesn't even dare to look in the mirror! His fingertips stroked the red scars, and he looked ferocious incompatible with his age.

The buds of resentment grow in the depths of your heart! Like a cancer, it has been growing slowly until it swells. On that day, the venom inside will kill him completely! But who can be accurate about such a subtle thing?

In an instant, the hustle and hustle andtle hall suddenly calmed down, as if everyone had stopped breathing. Those who were sending the wine from the glass to their mouths also stopped, and the wine in the glass was poured on their chest without notice. His eyes were stunned, as if he had seen something unbelievable!

"Beautiful...beautiful!" A minister's eyes were round, as if they were about to fly out. Others followed his eyes, with the same dull face, with an incredible look!

The eyes of everyone in the hall fell on a woman, with a plain gauze robe outlining an extremely graceful body, and the arms exposed to the air were white and delicate, like a pot of milk pouring out. The exquisite face is like a maid coming out of the mural, and her facial features are like the gods deliberately created for this woman, but the coral-red eyes with slightly upturned corners of the eyes are so bright that people dare not look at them. The woman has an indifferent smile on her face. Although she is smiling, she leads people's thoughts to the lonely and distant snowy mountains in the north of the wilderness and mountains! Beautiful and soul-catching! The beauty of not eating the fireworks in the world has completely shattered the worldview of these prosperous and beautiful nobles who have been established for many years! There is only this woman in my eyes.

And the woman's hand is still holding an equally exquisite little boy, which makes these ministers and nobles can't help pounding their chests and feet, sighing that the sky is eyeless! How can such a woman be a wife and mother? This should be a golden statue built for it to be worshipped!

That's right! It was Queen Baiyan and Ye Xingchen who suddenly turned pale in the whole hall! After all, she, the queen, is also going to come forward for such a big event. As the son of Xingchen, the future Lord of the Night Kingdom can't come forward!

It took a long time for the atmosphere of the hall to recover. Then these ministers talked about this woman. They couldn't help looking at her secretly. The beautiful edge seemed to be a kind of blasphemy.

Ye Qingshan looked at Queen Baiyan coldly and squeezed out two words from her clenched teeth, "Bitch!"

Men are born with a sense of admiration for such women. Although his face is sanctimonous and serious, his heart has long been ungrateful and ungrateful! But he can't get it! At this time, there will always be evil people who try their best to slander and insult. Ye Qingshan is such a person! He has always been jealous that Ye Qingshan can get such a woman, such a perfect woman!

He watched Queen Baiyan take Ye Xingchen's hand and walk to Ye Mingshan, look at the prince Ye Xingchen, and then look at his son. It seems that I saw myself and Ye Mingshan when I was a child! Night Star, Night Star Cold, these two ordinary children got a completely different fate because of the difference between the clan and the split family!

I couldn't help but feel resentful and said fiercely again, "Bitch!"

But the noise of the hall was broken again, this time not because of the sharp beauty, but because of the dominance of the mountains and rivers. It seems that as soon as that person's name appeared, they all had to kneel down. In fact, they were going to kneel down, because the people of the palace ordered outside the hall shouted: "Emperor Lin Xi is here!"

For a burst of unbearable depression, the ministers put down their cups in their hands, bowed their heads and knelt down, waiting for the person they loved, feared, admired and feared to appear. No one dared to speak out, because they knew that the four words 'Emperor Lin Xi' had the weight that could crush the earth.

Ye Qingshan hissed, "Do you want to see the emperor?" With that, he took his son's hand and knelt down.
