Empress Yan was so frightened that she dared not cry.
"Empress?" The Emperor of Southern Xinjiang stared intently at Empress Yan, his burning gaze seemingly trying to envelop her.
She looked around.
No one was around.
The air was filled with the unsettling scent of sandalwood.
She frowned.
The next moment, the Southern Emperor grabbed her arm tightly: "I haven't even investigated the Empress's unauthorized departure from Jincheng yet."
"Your Majesty..." Empress Yan's face darkened.
"Just now, the Northern Chu sent a letter requesting that the Empress be married off to another state. I am still hesitating."
One sentence made Empress Yan tense up, but after a moment she gave in, closing her eyes and letting the Southern Emperor do as he pleased.
She trembled all over, feeling utterly humiliated.
Two full hours
The gates of Fengyi Palace were wide open, and sounds of pleasure could be heard from the bed from time to time. The Emperor of Southern Xinjiang was excited, while Empress Yan was trying her best to control herself.
Finally, unable to control himself any longer, he let out a strange scream.
Consort Xue listened with a smile from under the eaves, while Qingzhi was held down by two palace maids and had her mouth covered, forced to listen to the commotion inside.
It lasted a long time.
Consort Xue smiled and said, "It was not in vain that I gave His Majesty the tonics in advance. Our Empress is new to this world, and I wonder if she can withstand such favor."
Aokiji suddenly raised his head and looked at the Imperial Concubine Xue.
She looked down at Aokiji, who looked at her face and felt that it was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember where he was looking for it.
Looking at the confusion in Aokiji's eyes.
The Imperial Concubine Xue smiled elegantly and kindly reminded her, "My surname is Jiang!"
ginger?
Isn't that the Jiang family, the maternal family of the Third Prince's wife?
No wonder, the Snow Empress's eyebrows and eyes look just like the Third Prince's wife.
The Imperial Concubine Xue raised an eyebrow and, not forgetting to have the incense burner lit again, added a lot of spices.
She covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief and peeked over the shoulder.
Empress Yan's frail body was pressed down beneath him like a sail swaying precariously in a river, constantly being battered.
When Empress Yan looked up, her gaze met that of the beautiful and unparalleled Consort Xue, and she immediately recognized that her appearance was strikingly similar to that of an old friend.
She gripped the brocade quilt tightly, but before she could speak, the Emperor of Southern Xinjiang grabbed her ankle, exposing her completely without dignity to the Snow Empress.
At that moment, Empress Yan wished she were dead.
I have never been humiliated like this in my entire life.
They only let her go when the person on the bed could no longer hold on.
At that moment, with just a glance from the Imperial Concubine Xue, the palace maid immediately bent down and went in to clean the sandalwood incense burner, opened the window, and dispelled the smell from the palace.
Empress Yan trembled as she took the clothes and put them on. Her legs shook violently, and she collapsed to the ground as soon as she got down.
Aokiji broke free of his restraints and rushed over; "Your Majesty, the Snow Empress is a daughter of the Jiang family."
ginger?
Empress Yan's mind went blank for a moment, and she asked incredulously, "To seek revenge, you actually ruined your future and gave yourself to the Emperor?"
"Your Majesty, I am the esteemed Imperial Noble Consort, and I am not wronged at all." Imperial Noble Consort Xue looked Empress Yan up and down, and clicked her tongue twice: "Your Majesty's performance just now has truly impressed me. Unlike me, who fainted from pain on my first night with the Emperor."
Empress Yan glared at him; how could she not understand the implied meaning?
"How dare you make up such things about me?"
Consort Xue disagreed, bent down and squatted down, her gaze level with Empress Yan's: "Your Majesty, I congratulate you on receiving the Emperor's favor even after your defeat. It seems the Emperor truly loves you."
"You!" Empress Yan raised her hand to strike, but was stopped by Consort Xue and instead slapped.
Snapped!
Crisp and pleasant.
Empress Yan was stunned.
The next five days
Empress Yan served the emperor every day, but was confined to his bed by the emperor of the Southern Frontier. The emperor also had many quirks, which Empress Yan resisted to the death.
A cup of wine, the herbal remedy for dispelling joy, is drunk down.
Empress Yan could no longer maintain her former dignity and elegance, and gradually lost her rationality, allowing the Southern Emperor to manipulate her.
Sometimes, when the palace servants of Fengyi Palace were present, Empress Yan was both ashamed and angry, but she could not withstand the strength of the Southern Emperor.
Day 10
At that time, three cities in the southern border had been captured in succession, and the Northern Chu army was advancing with unstoppable momentum. It was about to reach Jincheng, and the civil and military officials knelt in the Fengyi Palace.
But what could be heard was Empress Yan's unrestrained groans.
The officials, both civil and military, blushed and were furious upon hearing this.
The Southern Emperor suddenly awoke, looked at the unsatisfied Empress Yan beneath him, his eyes filled with disdain, and left in anger.
The war was brought before the eyes of the Southern Frontier Emperor.
The Emperor of Southern Xinjiang was furious: "Why is it taking so long to report this?"
"Your Majesty, it was you who ordered that the document not to be presented..." Before the guard could finish speaking, he was killed by the Southern Emperor with a single sword stroke. In an instant, blood flowed like a torrent, staining the Phoenix Palace.
Five more days passed.
The Northern Chu army was at the city gates, only a few miles away from Jincheng.
Jin Cheng panicked
Zhao Jiahua looked at Jin Cheng, who seemed both familiar and unfamiliar, raised an eyebrow, and curled a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth; "Finally back again."
She had waited two long years for this moment.
The Emperor of Northern Chu set up camp on the spot and sent someone in to deliver a message: those who surrendered voluntarily would not be killed!
The city was attacked the following morning.
Those who harm innocent civilians shall be killed!
If the city gates are open, the people may enter and exit freely without being made difficult.
"Your Majesty, the Northern Chu army is already at the city gates. The most important thing now is to negotiate peace."
The officials in the main hall were already in complete chaos.
The Emperor of Southern Xinjiang ignored him and asked, "Where is the seventh prince? Quickly find the seventh prince!"
"By my decree, the seventh prince is hereby appointed as the Great General of Divine Valor, and shall immediately lead troops to confront the Northern Chu! We must drive the Northern Chu out of the southern border!"
"No, I want the head of the Northern Chu Emperor!"
The voice of the Southern Emperor echoed within the main hall.
An official, still indignant, stepped forward and said, "The Seventh Prince died two months ago!"
"Dead?" The Emperor of Southern Xinjiang was stunned, looking at the eunuch beside him in disbelief. The eunuch nodded, and he asked again, "When did he die? How could I not know? Where is the body?"
"His Highness should be buried on the spot after his death."
"Then it was Huo Xi."
"General Huo is also dead."
"The second prince..."
"Your Majesty, the Second Prince has been killed by the Emperor of Japan."
The Southern Emperor shuddered, belatedly realizing that all those who could be of use were dead. He felt as if he had just taken a nap and that not much time had passed.
How did the southern border suddenly become besieged by enemy troops?
He was terrified and looked at the official who had spoken earlier: "Then what are we waiting for? Let's negotiate peace immediately!"
"Your Majesty?!" Everyone was astonished.
It was a mix of admonition and disappointment.
Some people advised them to negotiate peace and not to make a futile struggle.
Some people felt sorry that the emperor of the southern border was so disrespectful and lacked backbone.
Despite the objections of many, the Emperor of Southern Xinjiang sent people out to negotiate.
The Northern Chu Emperor quickly responded: "Send the soldiers out of the city, and have all civil and military officials line up in a row. The Southern Frontier Emperor has lowered his status and been granted the title of Marquis of Loyalty."
The Southern Emperor was initially angry, but quickly agreed.
an hour later
The soldiers of the Jinwu Guard in the southern border region laid down their weapons and left the city gate.
The doorway opened.
The Northern Chu army entered in unison, marching straight into the palace. The Southern Emperor had already removed his dragon robe and knelt on the ground.
The Emperor of Northern Chu sneered and scorned, but was mostly furious.
If it weren't for the person in front of him, why would Zhao Jiahua be forced to come for a marriage alliance?
Damn!
“Now is not the time to kill him,” Zhao Jiahua stopped him.
The Emperor of Northern Chu nodded: "Don't worry."
The previous dynasty was handed over to the Emperor of Northern Chu.
Zhao Jiahua was also going to settle scores with his old friend. He took his men to Fengyi Palace, where the Imperial Concubine Xue was already waiting under the eaves.
"Jiahua," she called out.
Zhao Jiahua's expression changed slightly when he saw her pale face and the bloodstains seeping through her skirt.
"I didn't expect you to arrive so quickly." She smiled slightly. "Don't forget what you promised me."
"Don't worry, I will clear the name of the Jiang family, exonerate your brother, and give the Jiang family an important position," Zhao Jiahua said.
The Snow Empress's smile deepened: "Don't worry, the person inside isn't dead. I wouldn't dare kill her if you hadn't come."
"Thank you."
Zhao Jiahua sent someone to take Consort Xue to receive medical treatment: "Send her to the Jiang family to recuperate."
The two parted ways.
The servants of Fengyi Palace were all kneeling outside, with Qingzhi at the head.
As Qingzhi watched Zhao Jiahua arrive with her men, he realized that the woman before him had become somewhat unfamiliar after more than two years. Dressed in silver armor, she looked as imposing as a female general.
Zhao Jiahua turned her head to look at Aokiji.
The pheasant was so frightened that it hurriedly lowered its head.
"Considering that you protected the young prince, I will grant you some decency."
Aokiji was stunned.
After the Third Prince's wife died, the young prince was left unattended. It was Qingzhi who suddenly took pity on him and sent the young prince to the Jiang family.
A cup of poisoned wine was presented.
Aokiji was trembling, wanting to cry but unable to. He bit his lip tightly, and in fear, he tried to beg for mercy, but someone grabbed his chin and poured a cup of poison down his throat.
He died instantly.
Dying was not painful at all.
Zhao Jiahua pointed at several more people: "Beaten to death!"
"Seventh Prince's Consort, spare our lives!" the crowd begged.
They were all gagged and beaten to death on the spot.
Zhao Jiahua had no sympathy for these people. They were accomplices to evil, doing all sorts of despicable things, and their hands were stained with countless amounts of blood.
She withdrew her gaze and stepped into the Phoenix Palace.
The woman on the bed still had a flushed face and was making love with a guard. When she came, the guard was scared half to death.
Empress Yan, completely naked, clung to the guards and refused to give up.
Seeing this, Xiu Shu took the antidote, pinched Empress Yan's chin, and poured it down her throat. She then sent someone to take the guard away.
After a short while, Empress Yan gradually regained consciousness.
She looked down at herself, her face changing drastically. Recalling the absurdity of the past few days, she was so angry she almost vomited blood.
He raised his head to look at the person who had come, gritting his teeth: "Zhao Jiahua!"
Zhao Jiahua pursed her lips: "It seems that Her Majesty the Empress has been living quite comfortably these days."
"You!!" Empress Yan glanced at the doorway, which was full of guards from Northern Chu. She immediately realized that Northern Chu had occupied the southern border.
The tide is gone.
She clenched her fists tightly: "You hate me so much, do whatever you want with me, kill me or torture me, it's all up to you!"
Seeing her defiant expression.
Zhao Jiahua raised her delicate eyebrows, and the first thing she did was to have someone break the tendons in Empress Yan's hands and feet so that she could not commit suicide.
Empress Yan, her face deathly pale with pain, cried out, "If you have the guts, then kill me!"
"I won't kill you!" Zhao Jiahua's smile grew even brighter as he gently patted Empress Yan's face: "Help Empress Yan with her makeup!"
Empress Yan was puzzled.
She was forced to redo her makeup and dress up, wearing a phoenix crown and a phoenix robe, with exquisite makeup on her face, but her distorted expression ruined some of her beauty.
"Prepare a spacious carriage. Starting today, we will take Her Majesty the Empress on a tour of the streets from Jincheng until we have traveled all over the southern and northern borders!"
Empress Yan struggled violently: "You might as well kill me! I'm the one who harmed your children, poisoned your daughter to the point of insanity, and tortured your son to death. May they suffer a fate worse than death for the rest of their lives..."
Zhao Jiahua's face darkened, and a murderous aura surged within him for a moment, but he quickly suppressed it. He glanced at Empress Yan's crazed appearance and laughed, "Your Majesty is a woman of unparalleled beauty and noble birth, not to be defiled. How could I let you die so easily?"
"Somebody come!"
Xiu Shu stepped forward.
"Prepare aphrodisiac powder for the Empress to take daily. After the parade, whoever touches the Empress's phoenix skirt can favor her."
"Zhao Jiahua, you might as well kill me!" Empress Yan was shocked and furious, cursing loudly. She would rather die than suffer such an insult.
Zhao Jiahua narrowed his eyes: "Let's start from today!"
Xiu Shu quickly retrieved the aphrodisiac powder and forced it down her throat.
"Give the order: if Her Majesty the Empress dies at the hands of anyone, I will punish them severely!"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty." Xiu Shu felt that such punishment was not excessive for Empress Yan at all.
Empress Yan was led to a soft couch.
The roof was openwork on all four sides, with only the top open. It was pulled around the city by a carriage. The people were furious when they saw the empress Yan posing and acting coquettishly. They kept pointing and cursing at her.
Empress Yan heard all the insults she had never heard before in her life. She opened her mouth to refute them, but only moaned, her natural charm and humiliation making her wish she could die immediately.
Half rational, half physically uncomfortable.
Empress Yan simply could not accept herself in this state.
When passing through Caishikou.
Prime Minister Yan and his entire family were executed.
Empress Yan screamed in shock, as if she had gone mad, but the effects of the medicine soon took hold and she forgot again.
A notice was posted at the back of the carriage, clearly stating the severe punishment for Empress Yan, who had harmed too many girls over the years.
Some people were furious and threw the beggar forward.
Empress Yan was so frightened that she shouted, "Get out of the way!"
The beggar boldly touched Empress Yan's face, his eyes gleaming with lust.
A swarm of beggars gathered around.
Empress Yan's delicate face was pinched red, and she bit her lip tightly, not daring to cry out.
All her pride was trampled underfoot; she was easily bullied by everyone.
three days later
The Northern Chu Emperor officially annexed the Southern Frontier into part of Northern Chu, and sent the Southern Frontier Emperor to the Seventh Prince's residence, where he was heavily guarded.
There are far too many people who want to kill him.
Ten days later
The Emperor of Southern Xinjiang went mad, clutching the memorial tablet of the Seventh Prince and weeping bitterly, regretting his own foolishness in losing the Southern Xinjiang kingdom.
At the same time, the Emperor of Northern Chu proposed to marry Zhao Jiahua as his empress.
A grand wedding was held amidst the adoration of the masses.
A carriage had just finished its procession and was heading to the next city. Her phoenix crown and robes were still intact, and her gaze was fixed on the emperor and empress receiving homage on the city wall.
Extremely unwilling to accept it, wanting to die but powerless to do so.
"So this is the Empress of Southern Xinjiang."
"Pah! What empress? She's just a viper. The real empress is right there."
As several travelers passed the carriage, they spat in disgust, but when they turned to look towards the city wall, their faces lit up with smiles, and they couldn't help but exclaim, "The Empress is truly a celestial being descended to earth..."
"Yes, I have never seen a woman more beautiful than Her Majesty the Empress."
