Chapter 2
Chapter 1: Empress
“Langjun sing, the lady will follow, you sing it and I will appear on the stage. A Niangci, daughter is filial, a demon in front of the emperor hall.”
In December of the first year of Yuanjia, a nursery rhyme spread throughout the streets and alleys of Dongdu. Chui Tiao children sang songs and played in the street. The pedestrians on both sides did not dare to talk, clamped their clothes, and hurried past. Only the children’s parents will be busy covering their children’s mouths, dragging them home and cursing: “Don’t kill me, do you dare to talk about that person? If you don’t be obedient, I will put you at the door and let you be demonized. Secretary’s monster caught it and ate it!”
The children didn’t understand what the ballads meant, but when they heard the town demons, they were so frightened that they cried and couldn’t coax them.
The first year of Yuanjia was also the eighth year of Suigong, and the eighth year of Empress Wuzhao’s accession to the throne. Also famous is the commander of the Town Demon Division, who recruited party members, organized crimes, framed countless unjust cases and wronged cases, and murdered the Anding princess, Li Chaoge, who did not know how many prominent families were ruined.
Li Chaoge knows that many people hate her, but don’t know how many people in Dongdu ask God to worship the Buddha, and look forward to her death day and night.
Her younger siblings, her cousins, and even her husband are all looking forward to this day.
Unfortunately, they will be disappointed after all. The female officials in red palace costumes knelt in front of Li Chaoge, drawing eyebrows, tracing lines, and smearing for Li Chaoge. Finally, they put the magnificent and magnificent diadem on Li Chaoge’s head and knelt together: “Long live your majesty.”
Inside and outside the Daye Hall, everyone knelt down, bowed their necks softly, and shouted, “Long live your majesty.”
Li Chaoge stared at the person in the mirror motionlessly. Thin and raised eyebrows, tall nose, beautiful and sharp eyes, wearing Dagon Mianzhu, beautiful teeth and claws, menacing. No matter how unbearable the outside world passed about her, no one could deny that it was a very beautiful face.
She is Princess Anding, a notorious princess who grew up in the folks and lived like a joke. But now, she is the new empress of Datang.
The great sage emperor Wu Zhao died violently last month. Before he died, he passed the throne to his eldest daughter Li Chaoge. Li Chaoge conformed to the times and succeeded to the throne. Today is her enthronement ceremony.
The female officials half-downed their eyes, and did not dare to look at Li Chaoge at all. The female officer of the Shangyi Bureau stepped forward and gave a solemn salute, and said respectfully: “Your Majesty, the auspicious time is coming soon, please move the Hanyuan Hall.”
Li Chaoge nodded faintly, and the twelve beads collided lightly, making a pleasant sound. Li Chaoge didn’t need help from the palace, so he stood up firmly from the pad. Just now Li Chaoge stood still, another female officer hurriedly walked over, her face turned pale, her eyes dodged, she didn’t dare to face Li Chaoge at all. Because of being too scared, the female officials were trembling slightly.
There is no need to speak, Li Chaoge already understands: “The royal husband has something to say? The ceremony is about to begin. If the royal husband has anything to say, wait until the ceremony is over.”
“No.” The female officer said tremblingly, “The imperial husband is not wearing a suit. The imperial husband also said that he wants to see your majesty.”
I didn’t wear it. It is a pity for Li Chaoge. The husband and wife have been separated for six years, and they have become enemies with each other. But even so, after she became the throne, she still wanted to make Pei Ji’an her only partner.
There is a widespread rumor that Li Chaoge is desolate and lewd, with countless faces, but Li Chaoge knows that he is the only one.
Li Chaoge sighed indifferently, and said, “Finally, since the imperial husband is in a bad mood, let’s postpone the ceremony. Come on, spread the word, and the enthronement ceremony will begin immediately.”
The female officer should be, and walk out with restraint. But they didn’t take two steps and were stopped by the movement outside. The eunuchs who guarded the gate were thrown into the hall door like sacks. The leading **** got up and tried to plead guilty to Li Chaoge: “Your Majesty, the slave is guilty…”
Li Chaoge raised his hand and said lightly: “Enough, I see. You can withdraw.”
Li Chaoge knew that he had offended many people, so he cultivated party feathers, collected foreigners, and guarded them heavily outside the palace. But Li Chaoge also knew that these people only had some superficial skills, how could they stop Pei Lang, who used to cultivate both civil and military skills and was well-known in Chang’an?
The people in the palace knew that the queen and the royal husband had a lot of entanglements. After the attendants like Caiyun retreated, the Daye Hall was empty, magnificent, and there was a kind of silent loneliness and oppression.
At the entrance of the bright hall, a cyan figure crossed the threshold and stood in the middle of the hall, looking up at Li Chaoge coldly.
Li Chaoge wore a grand Emperor Mianqi, and looked at each other with Pei Ji’an. She was all dressed up, and Pei Ji’an was still wearing his most commonly worn Tsing Yi, with only a hosta and a long sword all over her body.
As seen at the beginning of the year. Li Chaoge still remembers that when she saw Pei Ji’an for the first time, Pei Ji’an was dressed like this. The gentleman dressed in Tsing Yi, like a breeze and bright moon, and a fairy under the moon, instantly captured Li Chaoge.
From that moment on, Li Chaoge tried every means to get him. But she appeared too late, and Pei Ji’an was already engaged to the imperial sister Li Changle. Li Changle is the mother’s youngest child, and the most favored princess in the palace. He grew up enjoying the beautiful clothes and fame and glory when he was a child. Pei Ji’an and Li Changle were married.
Only Li Chaoge refused to accept it. In order to beg her mother to marry her and Pei Ji’an, she did not hesitate to give up her dignity and conscience, from bright to dark, to do some ugly work for her mother. Some people oppose the Queen Mother’s coming to the court, some oppose women’s power, some oppose their mothers proclaiming the emperor, and it is inconvenient for the mother to come forward, so Li Chaoge condemns them and kills all those who oppose them.
Li Chaoge relied on these **** credits in exchange for a piece of marriage decree. She has been living among the people since she was a child, can’t get enough food, don’t wear warm clothes, and is accustomed to relying on snatching to make a living. She likes a person, but she doesn’t know how to tell him or how to make the other person like herself, so take him over and treat him well. Li Chaoge thought that as long as she saw people’s hearts, Pei Ji’an would definitely change her mind as long as she gave her sincere heart.
But no. Her favorite horseman, the noble royal husband, wore cold plain clothes during her enthronement ceremony and the ceremony of entrusting the royal husband.
Li Chaoge smiled at Pei Ji’an and said, “The royal husband, why are you here?”
“Don’t call me the royal husband.” Pei Ji’an looked at her coldly, her thin lips lightly opened, and every word she uttered was sharp as a knife. “This title makes me feel sick.”
“Okay.” Li Chaoge tolerated him with a good temper, and said to him, “Since you don’t like it, then I will ask you to be a concierge.”
Pei Ji’an’s face was still cold, he didn’t want to have any relationship with Li Chaoge, but his marriage relationship with Li Chaoge was clearly written on the imperial edict. Pei Ji’an thought of coming, cold eyes, and slowly asked: “Li Chaoge, this is the last time I have come to you on the initiative. I will not say these words again. I ask you, did you kill King Zhao? ”
The smile in Li Chaoge’s eyes dimmed, and his expression became cold. It turned out that this was his goal. If it were not for these people, he would not even bother to come to her palace.
The big man dared to act, Li Chaoge nodded without any hesitation: “It’s me.”
Zhao Wang Li Huai is the younger brother of Li Chaoge and the former prince. Since last year, the central government’s voice calling for the establishment of Zhao Wang Li Huai as his heir has become louder and louder. Many courtiers secretly speak for Li Huai. The terrible thing is that the mother also showed the tendency to pass the throne to his younger brother. Li Chaoge has offended so many people, she is not the emperor, she will die next. Li Chaoge could only frame Li Huai for rebellion, exile him, and kill him on the way.
It really was her. Pei Ji’an clenched his fingers into a fist, and blue veins burst out from the back of his hand: “The Great Sage Emperor died suddenly, was it you?”
The Great Sage Emperor is the mother Wu Zhao. Li Chaoge readily admitted: “It’s me.”
After Li Huai’s death was passed to the palace, his mother vomited blood and her condition suddenly worsened. In November, her mother asked Li Chaoge to come before the collapse and asked her what was going on with Li Huai’s rebellion.
What can Li Chaoge do? At this point, she has no retreat. She could only kill her mother, and Joe played the imperial decree and made herself emperor.
“My Pei family has been famous for a hundred years, and the grandfather’s family has made great achievements, but in the end it ended up with the destruction of the family and the exploitation of officials. Did you do it?”
“it’s me.”
Pei Ji’an’s foreign family is the grandson family, a well-known and prominent family in Chang’an. The emperor Wen and Gao were highly regarded by the emperor Wen and Gao who had been a queen in the Changsun family. If his mother wanted to lift the curtain of beads and become an emperor on her own, she had no choice but to destroy the Changsun family. Pei Ji’an’s father was ignorant and helped the eldest Sun’s family speak, and was also convicted. Li Chaoge has tried his best to save the lives of Pei’s family.
Pei Ji’an’s eyes were red, and her eyes were splitting, and she couldn’t wait to swallow the woman in front of her alive. Over the years, whenever he thinks of everything his grandfather, cousin, and Pei family have experienced, he can’t wait for self-determination and disappear from this world forever. It’s all because of him that provokes this woman and brings endless disasters to the family and maternal ancestors.
Pei Ji’an closed her eyes forcibly and forced herself to continue to ask: “Chu Yue was attacked from the road on the way into the palace, and the car was destroyed and killed. When she died, she was still pregnant for three months. This is also what you did. of?”
When Li Chaoge spoke earlier, his eyes were clear and his tone was firm. She knew that she had killed people, and knew that if she didn’t kill them, Li Huai, her mother, and the eldest grandson would kill her. It’s just a political struggle. Whoever loses will admit it. What kind of grievances can be called? But only this time, Li Chaoge was silent.
Pei Chuyue is Pei Ji’an’s younger sister, and she has a good relationship with Li Changle. They can be regarded as playmates who grew up together. When Li Chaoge ordered Pei Chuyue to be killed, he didn’t know that she was pregnant.
But what about it. Killing is killing. Li Chaoge did not defend himself, but admitted: “Yes, it’s me.”
This sentence was like the last straw, which completely crushed Pei Ji’an. Pei Ji’an stared at Li Chaoge bitterly and bitterly: “Why? Li Chaoge, why are you doing this? If you hate me, you can come at me as much as you can. Why do you want to hurt my family and insult my family?”
Li Chaoge didn’t want to answer this kind of question. The conversation was really unpleasant. Li Chaoge turned around, straightened his sleeves from the bronze mirror, and said: “It’s auspicious hour, and the officials are still waiting outside. I’m going to Hanyuan Hall. If you want to come, you don’t want to. Come with me to the ceremony, then, sir, please go back.”
Li Chaoge turned his back to Pei Ji’an, and didn’t know that Pei Ji’an’s eyes were faintly red, demon and crazy, not like a mortal at all. With the last trace of luck, Pei Ji’an asked, “Where is Chang Le?”
Li Chaoge’s hands arranging sleeves stopped. She lowered her eyes for a moment, slowly lowered her sleeves, curled her lips and smiled: “It’s me too.”
She killed so many people, only when she killed Li Changle, she was happy.
Pei Ji’an’s last illusion was also disillusioned. When he asked this sentence, he even begged Li Chaoge to deny him, even if she lied, it didn’t matter. However, she didn’t even bother to lie to him.
This woman is so vicious and unfeeling.
Pei Ji’an’s back fell suddenly, he fell two steps later, collapsed and asked: “Li Chaoge, what do you want to do? She is just an innocent princess, carefree all her life, not even willing to trample an ant to death. She It won’t interfere with you at all, why did you kill her?”
Li Chaoge laughed angrily when he heard these words. Why kill Li Changle? It’s also a shame that Pei Ji’an can say such a thing.
Li Chaoge endured Li Changle for a long time, but she finally chose to do it, first because of political factors, and second, because Li Changle really offended her bottom line.
In July of this year, the current situation is full of turmoil. Every day, many ministers are convicted and imprisoned. The crimes sent out by Li Chaoge are even less common. Li Chaoge thought that she hadn’t seen Pei Ji’an for a long time, and what happened to the Pei family was that she couldn’t stand Pei Ji’an. Therefore, she wanted to take the opportunity of Pei Ji’an’s birthday to apologize to Pei Ji’an and ease the relationship between husband and wife.
On the sixth day of July, Li Chaoge specially asked for a day off and quietly went to Pei’s mansion to celebrate Pei Ji’an’s birthday. Since two years ago, Pei Ji’an has moved out of the princess mansion and separated from Li Chaoge. Li Chaoge ignored the hostile sight of Pei’s subordinates, personally made a table of birthday dishes for Pei Ji’an, and then sat in the room happily and waited. She waited all night, the dishes were cooled, heated, and cooled again, Pei Ji’an did not come back.
Li Chaoge’s heart also became cold. She dumped all the food. The next morning, she put her eyes on her sleepless night and asked people to check Pei Ji’an’s whereabouts. The guard of the city gate reported that Pei Langjun went out of the city early in the sixth day of the sixth day to celebrate the birthday of Princess Li Changle at Jingting Mountain.
Li Changle’s birthday was on the seventh day of July, only one day away from Pei Ji’an. While Li Chaoge was waiting in Pei’s mansion, Pei Ji’an was waiting with Li Changle for his birthday. The spies also reported that after the time passed, Pei Ji’an was the first to give Li Changle a blessing. The princess was very touched, and the two of them drank alcohol and rolled onto the bed.
Li Chaoge was completely angered. Pei Ji’an said that he felt disgusted when he heard the title “Imperial Husband”, but Li Chaoge felt dirty from the heart when he saw Pei Ji’an. As soon as she saw Pei Ji’an, she would think of him and Li Changle rolling on the bed, almost disgusting.
Later, Li Chaoge single-handedly led the Zhao Wang conspiracy case, and Li Changle was implicated. Within a few days, Li Changle “feared sin and committed suicide” and hanged himself in the Shangqing view.
Now, Pei Ji’an asked her why.
Li Chaoge had a lot of anger and disappointment in her heart, but when she spoke, she omitted the questioning words, and wrote lightly: “I want to kill, so I killed.”
I wanted to kill, so I killed.
This sentence completely drove Pei Ji’an crazy, and Pei Ji’an suddenly drew his sword and flew towards Li Chaoge. Li Chaoge just turned sideways unhurriedly and clamped Pei Ji’an’s sword with two fingers.
Li Chaoge didn’t move his body, only the bead on the top of his head shook lightly. Li Chaoge’s fingers pressed slightly, and he pushed Pei Ji’an away with his sword. Pei Ji’an stumbled back to the hall. Li Chaoge was condescending, looking at him with tolerance and pity: “I have broken through to the realm, my body and sword are united, my body and skin are invulnerable, and there is nothing in the world that can hurt me. Pei Ji’an, you can’t kill me. mine.”
Pei Ji’an stretched out his hand and wiped the blood line from his mouth. Of course he knew that this woman grew up in the mortal world, but for some reason she learned a lot of height and skill. She was able to fly over the walls, drop demons and exorcise demons. It was because of her omnipotence that she was reused by the Queen, and the Demon Division became popular. In recent years, Li Chaoge has offended many people. I don’t know how many people hired to kill her. Unfortunately, no matter how famous the killer was, no one survived. And soon, the murderer will be madly retaliated by Li Chaoge.
The Town Demon Division can stop children from crying at night, to a large extent, because of Li Chaoge. When everyone in the court mentioned Li Chaoge, no one was irritated, but terrified.
Not even Pei Ji’an. He attacked Li Chaoge with a sword, and Li Chaoge was unscathed, but Pei Ji’an was shocked by her powerful infuriating qi, causing severe pain in her meridians.
Li Chaoge experienced a very unpleasant conversation. For the first time, he has stopped the consort from killing her, and his heart is exhausted. Obviously today is a great day for her to ascend the throne.
Because he moved his hands just now, Li Chaoge’s dress was in chaos again. Li Chaoge turned to sort out his jade pendant, and said to Pei Ji’an indifferently: “You go back now, I can pretend that today’s things haven’t happened, and you can still be my royal husband. You are obedient, Pei family and eldest grandson. Only the rest of the family can continue to live.”
Pei Ji’an swallowed the blood foam in his mouth and smiled sarcastically. What is he in her eyes, a canary without dignity and opinion? Pei Ji’an knows that there are many people in the DPRK who want to recommend themselves to Li Chaoge. Li Chaoge is top notch regardless of appearance or power. But Li Chaoge didn’t even sweep his eyes, and over time, the people below didn’t dare. Everyone admires Pei Ji’an’s great blessing, but Pei Ji’an can’t wait for Li Chaoge to linger in the flowers and nurture his face.
He couldn’t bear such a blessing.
Li Chaoge did not shy away from exposing his back to Pei Ji’an, because in her cognition, no one in the world except Old Man Zhou could hurt her. But she forgot, the world can’t, how about that day?
Pei Ji’an wiped his fingers on the blade and stroked it hard. The blood gurgled through the Qianyuan sword, and what was even more fascinating was that this ordinary-looking sword had absorbed the blood without any leakage.
Qian Yuanjian was full of blood, and suddenly became a red light. Li Chaoge felt a fierce murderous intent coming from behind, his realm is far beyond what people can do! Li Chaoge was shocked, and immediately turned around, offering all his skills to resist. Unfortunately, it was still too late.
A sword pierced through the heart, and the cold blade passed through the gorgeous dress and through Li Chaoge’s warm body. Li Chaoge stretched out his hand to hold the sword, and stared at Pei Ji’an persistently regardless of the pain: “That’s how you want to kill me? Don’t hesitate to sacrifice the sword?”
Li Chaoge has been in charge of the town’s demon department for so many years. I don’t know how many things I have seen about demons and ghosts. How can she not recognize it? This is a fierce sword. The owner of the sword seems to have done many killings, and the evil spirit on the sword is already enough to cut through the half-immortal barrier. Such a sword cannot be used casually.
Pei Ji’an was able to drive the fierce sword, and what was even more surprising was that he did not hesitate to sacrifice the sword with blood. Once the fierce sword has opened its ring, he will never give up without absorbing the blood of the activator.
Pei Ji’an has been preparing for today for a long time, before coming, he considered every possibility. But when he really did this step, and after he really pierced the sword into Li Chaoge’s chest, there was a huge barrenness in his heart.
He really killed her. He really got rid of her.
Pei Ji’an stared at her, almost unable to blink. He felt that he had lost consciousness all over his body. He was holding his hand on the hilt of the sword, and he should take the opportunity to go deep, but he could not use it for a long time: “I’m sorry. In the next life, please don’t love me anymore.”
Li Chaoge looked at Pei Ji’an and suddenly laughed uncontrollably. She married him for six years, but in the end, he said please stop loving him. Their marriage brought a lot of pain to Pei Ji’an. For Li Chaoge, why not?
Li Chaoge suddenly slapped Pei Ji’an without warning. Her heart is broken and she can’t live, but the person who killed her without reason can live well. Li Chaoge has never done a few good things in his life. He only repays gratitude and revenge. He never treats his benefactor badly, nor does he spare his enemies.
Even if Li Chaoge likes him, what if she is dead, Pei Ji’an don’t want to live.
The slender camel is bigger than the horse. Even if Li Chaoge is about to die, Pei Ji’an can’t bear her palm. At such a close distance, Pei Ji’an couldn’t hide at all. In fact, he didn’t hide.
Pei Ji’an was hit by a palm in his central lung, and his internal organs suddenly shattered and his breastbone broke. Pei Ji’an spouted a mouthful of blood, was beaten for several meters, and fell heavily to the ground. Li Chaoge also affected the wound. She clutched the bleeding sword hilt and slowly fell to the ground.
In her whole life, she was separated from her family when she was young, and the teenager was abandoned by Old Man Zhou. It was so easy to find her family, but it became an existence that everyone hated. She killed her younger brother, sister, mother, husband’s grandfather, sister-in-law, her mother-in-law, and grandma to death. She became the emperor, but she had nothing.
In the end, she was also killed by her husband.
Everything is Li Chaoge’s choice, and Li Chaoge does not regret it. But if you do it again, she doesn’t want to go this way again.
Especially, she stopped liking Pei Ji’an anymore.
