Chapter 91 The Emperor's Decree
Seeing that the corner was so wronged, Lin Yi was furious, and his fist in his sleeve had been clenched. He subconsciously rushed forward to leave the arrogant and fierce queen behind him. Jiao had already sensed Lin Yi's behavior. The hand in front of Lin Yi pressed Lin Yi's arm in an impercible manner, and shook his head slightly to Lin Yi with a side face. He gave a look and motioned Lin Yi to watch the change.
The queen saw bright red blood oozing from the corners of her lips, and a satisfied look appeared in her eyes. The corners of her lips gently rose, turned around and walked to Lin Yi, looking around: "I think the emperor has chosen thousands of choices for the most beloved nine princes, and this is nothing more than that! I just don't know what the mystery is in this small body? As she spoke, she stretched out her slender index finger and pinched Lin Yi's cheek. Then she shook her long sleeves in disgust and turned to the woman who came with her and shouted, "Take it away to me!"
"Yes!" It was the woman who began to torture the maidservant. She respectfully saluted the queen, walked to Lin Yi's side, grabbed Lin Yi's arm, and was about to drag her away.
"Empress, the princess ordered me to take care of Miss Chen's safety. I can't leave Hetian Palace for half a step without the princess's order!" Although there was a front row where the maidservant was punished by the queen, the other three maidservant stood up desperately when they saw that the queen was going to take Lin Yi away.
"Presumptuous!" The queen stared at the three maidservists in front of her, looked angry, and gave a wink to the women and maidservant around her. The women immediately went forward to drag the three maidservant.
The three maidservant seemed to be very heartfelt to Princess Nalan. Even so, they still stood in front of the queen and had no intention of retreating. The queen was even more angry. As soon as she raised her hand, the two maidservant appeared two bright red palm prints on her left and right faces.
"I want to see if this palace is my palace or her Nalan's palace!"
"This palace is not my Nalan's palace, but it is not your queen's palace, but today's holy palace!" As soon as the queen's words fell, Princess Nalan quickly walked into the palace gate. As soon as she entered the palace gate, she confronted the queen. Her momentum was not inferior to the queen of Zhou at all, and even more majestic and inviolable than the queen's.
As soon as the maidservant saw Princess Nalan, they seemed to see a savior. They breathed a sigh of relief and stood beside Nalan. One of them obediently told Princess Nalan about the queen's decision to take Lin Yi.
"Lin Yi is the princess selected by the royal brother for Jiu'er. Today, because she was frightened, the royal brother was specially ordered to stay in my palace to rest. The royal sister-in-law came to bring people without authorization. I don't know if there is the royal brother's decree?" After listening to this, Nalan raised his eyebrows with doubts in his eyes.
"Today's favorite ninth prince disappeared on the day of the wedding. As the mother of the ninth prince, the lord of this harem naturally has the responsibility and obligation to investigate this matter clearly! The phoenix seal of this palace is Yizhi!" The queen is not willing to show weakness.
"Don't forget that although the royal sister-in-law is the queen, even the queen will obey the orders of the royal brother! I am ordered by my brother to take care of Miss Chen, and I will never give anyone a chance to hurt her!" As Princess Nalan said, she had walked to Lin Yi's side and stared at the woman who twisted Lin Yi's arm. The woman involuntarily let go of her hand, and her body subconsciously took two steps back and bowed her head and stood solemnly. Nalan took the opportunity to gently take Lin Yi behind him to protect him.
The two most powerful women in the Zhou Palace are tit-for-tat for themselves. Although Lin Yi knows his importance to Zhou Xiong, he can't judge the thoughts of these two people. It's just that Nalan should not be the one who wants to harm her, but the queen's words 'I don't know what the mystery' just now made Lin Yi more suspicious! However, since Nalan has taken action, now she will calmly watch the change!
"You..." The queen was anxiously by Nalan, and her body trembled. The maidservant and the woman around her hurriedly stopped her, and then calmed down, and then said with a sarcastic smile, "It's really funny. You have been taken back to the palace by the emperor for several months. Has the emperor ever seen you? If it hadn't been for the wedding of the ninth prince, the emperor would have temporarily relieved your claustropho for the sake of the royal face. If you ask me for the emperor's decree, then I would like to see if you, your own sister, who has not been favored by the emperor for a long time, can take out the emperor's edict? After a pause, the queen probably expected that Princess Nalan could not come up with the imperial edict, so she took a step closer to Nalan: "If Princess Nalan has the emperor's oracle, you might as well let me have a look!" If not, I have reason to suspect that you secretly colluded with the Chen family to kidnap the ninth prince to blackmail the current emperor!"
No one expected that as soon as the queen finished her words, Princess Nalan really took out a roll of yellow paper from her sleeve. Even if Lin Yi had never seen what the edict of the State of Zhou looked like, she had never eaten pork and had never seen the pig run away!
"With the imperial edict!" Nalan's words were sonorous, and everyone in the palace and the queen had to kneel down in front of the imperial edict.
"Did the royal sister-in-law hear it clearly? Do you want to verify the authenticity of this edict in person? Nalan looked at the queen and said coldly.
"I hope the princess will not live up to the emperor's trust!" The queen's beautiful face had long been angry and blue and white. She gritted her teeth and reluctantly left a sentence. In a blink of an eye, she looked at Lin Yi's eyes and was even more vicious: "Since the emperor is worried about the safety of Miss Chen's family, you should stay outside Hetian Palace and guard it. Don't let Miss Chen have any damage!" At the same time, he ordered the two women around him to go out of the Hetian Palace Gate with the maidservant in his palace without waiting for her opposition!
"The queen didn't embarrass you, did she?" As soon as the queen left, Nalan asked Lin Yi with concern.
"Fortunately, the princess came back in time. I was fine, but the corner was slapped by her for me!" Returning to Nalan's words, Nalan was at ease, and Lin Yi went to check the injury of the corner.
"Miss, don't worry, I'm fine!" Fortunately, the corner itself is good. Although the slap is not strong, it only hurts a little fur. After confirming that Jiao's injury was not serious, Lin Yi asked, "Does the princess have anything to say to me?"
"Let's go into the house and talk about it later!" Nalan said and glanced at the two women outside the palace door. Lin Yi immediately agreed and entered the door with Nalan's arm, guarding the corner at the door.
"Lin Yi, thank you for saving my life!" As soon as he entered the door, Lin Yi bowed his knees and sincerely thanked Nalan.
"You don't have to thank me!" Nalan waved Lin together before saying, "Since Jiu'er disappeared, I feel that this matter is strange, but I never thought that the queen would make trouble you at this time! If I hadn't asked for the imperial edict first, I wouldn't have saved you now!"
"Your Majesty, is he all right?" The ninth prince has always been favored by Zhou Xiong. Lin Yi knew it, otherwise he would not be so arrogant and domineering. In this case, how could Zhou Xiong be safe and sound about the disappearance of the ninth prince? Moreover, he was still poisoned, but looking at Nalan's expression, he didn't seem to be strange. This makes her very puzzled!
