The woman only said this one sentence, and the whole scene was controlled and quieted down.

She was in a silver dress, standing there in such a quiet manner. She looked pure and clean and had a beautiful face which made people unable to violate her.

As if looking at her was an insult to her, this person turned out to be the famous female immortal Zui Linglong!

People were whispering and discussing her identity. Who was she? She actually dared to ask the imperial envoy to stop at the execution ground. Someone recognized her and shouted with amazement.

“Female immortal! The female immortal in here.”

As if a pot of boiling water had been poured in the crowd, they suddenly became noisy.

“Zui Linglong, the real female immortal!”

“I didn’t expect that I finally saw the living female immortal!”

“Female immortal, please bless us!”

“Female immortal, please bless us!”



For a time, all the people were kneeling down on the ground, and they asked for blessing by kowtowing to Zui Linglong.

Zui Linglong slowly stepped onto the platform as if she were entering a temple instead of a penalty platform.

She went up and stood in the center of the penalty platform, looking at the imperial envoy sitting in the seat and slowly said,

“Let him go.” Her voice sounded as cold as her appearance, but it was her style.

The imperial envoy did not figure out the situation for a moment. First, the Empress asked to release Helian Jue with an imperial edict, and then Lengmei ran out to accuse the Empress’s edict was false.

Now some female immortal showed up and asked him to release the criminal. The imperial envoy felt that his brain had been burned. He was shocked by the people who suddenly knelt, so he did not know how to respond to Zui Linglong.

Lengmei, who stopped tussling, was still angry and her wounds caused by Tang Xia hurt! She was pissed off when hearing that Zui Linglong asked to set the man free.

Immediately, she widened her eyes and put her hands into her waist, waving her hands toward Zui Linglong and yelling fiercely,

“Who the hell are you? You suddenly came here and terrified me! How dare you ask him to let go of the former emperor! Who do you think you are?

“How can you do that? Why do we have to release him as you said? Do you think you are the emperor? You are just a yellow-haired girl. How dare you!”

While she speaking, Lengmei pointed at Zui Linglong fiercely and continued to say, “You quickly get out, or I will ask the soldiers to drag you down.”

Zui Linglong gave a faint look at Lengmei and did not respond to her or say anything, but these people who knelt beneath heard and saw Lengmei clearly.

They cursed Lengmei and said,

“You are a vicious woman. This is the female immortal! Quickly widen your eyes and kowtow to apologize!”

“Hey! She is too venomous and disqualified to kowtow to female immortal! I mean she is disrespectful to female immortal and she should die.”

“Right! Kill this mean woman!”

“She dares to say that female immortal is a bad person. I say Lengmei is the real evil!”

For a time, the people down were all moved up, and all of them were filled with indignation as if Lengmei insulted them instead of Zui Linglong.

Some people raised the leaves of the rotten vegetables and eggs that had been used to throw to Helian Jue and wanted to hit Lengmei.

Lengmei was really not aware of the identity of Zui Linglong, or she would not say such words!

When she saw the actions of the people below, she panicked at once. She was an imperial concubine!

She was going to make a Queen in the future! If the common people threw the rotten leaves and eggs at her, how would people see her?

It would be impossible for her to be a concubine quietly, not to mention her dream of beating Tang Xia and being a queen. Without any reputation, it would affect her whole life!

Since Tang Xia saw Zui Linglong, she had been shocked there, completely ignoring the wounds hit by Lengmei.

She couldn’t figure out when Helian Jue had a relationship with Zui Linglong, and Zui Linglong offended Lengmei for him. As the saying went, people would rather offend an evildoer than a woman. Lengmei was both an evildoer and a woman.

However, when Tang Xia looked at the people who were under the platform, and Zui Linglong who looked like a beautiful fairy and the embarrassed Lengmei, she felt funny and admired Zui Linglong more.

“Zui Linglong is a smart woman. She is just standing there and does nothing and Lengmei is punished.”

Just when the people were so excited and wanted to throw something at Lengmei, a bright yellow carriage appeared in front of everyone. The driver was Little Orange and the emperor’s mark was engraved on the carriage.

“This… this is…”

“The Emperor! It is the Emperor!”

“It is really the Emperor!”

“I didn’t expect to see female immortal and the Emperor today!”

The people all fell to the ground, and shouted in unison, “My emperor, long live!”

Chu Tiankuo picked up the curtain and looked at the people who were worshipping on the ground.

Seeing the Emperor coming, Lengmei was happy, and her smug smile appeared again. She forgot the previous lesson and said to Zui Linglong fiercely,

“The Emperor is coming! The Emperor comes to support me! Everyone knows that the Emperor hates Helian Jue most. You are just a little person and dare to ask to release a criminal! You are waiting to be detained!”

Lengmei turned around, and then said to Tang Xia in the same tone, “And you! You faked an imperial edict and announced it. You wait for the Emperor to throw you into the cold palace!”

Chu Tiankuo came down from the carriage and walked over to the penalty platform. He looked at the deplorable Lengmei and his smart-ass Queen, Tang Xia who faked an imperial edict, frowned and asked,

“Queen and Lengmei, why did you come here, instead of staying in the palace to play?”

“Your Majesty!”

Lengmei rushed to the front of Chu Tiankuo and complained when Tang Xia was shocked by Chu Tiankuo’s appearance.

“Your Majesty, the Empress forged an imperial edict against your will, and she wanted to release Helian Jue. And this woman,” Lengmei pointed at Zui Linglong,

“She came from nowhere and asked to release Helian Jue. She incited people. Look at them; they are bullying me. You have to help me teach them a lesson.”

Hearing Lengmei’s words, Tang Xia was a little flurried. She looked up at Chu Tiankuo and saw that he was looking at her. She felt ease, so she said back to Lengmei,

“Lengmei! What are you talking about? This imperial edict is obviously from the emperor. The emperor wrote it and then stamped it with the imperial jade seal! You are in public. How can you cry like this?”

“He-he.”

Lengmei turned to sneer at Tang Xia,

“The Emperor is here now. He is the most understandable person in the world. Is your imperial edict forged? Have you colluded to bully me? The Emperor is clear in his heart! Let the Emperor come to judge! ”

“Enough!”

Chu Tiankuo shouted angrily, and his peach eyes looked closely at Tang Xia. He seemed to try to figure out what she was going to do. On the second look, he became a little exasperated.

Under his gaze, Tang Xia felt guilty, but she still looked into Chu Tiankuo’s eyes stubbornly. Her beautiful eyes were full of determination as if she had made her mind up to save Helian Jue.

After looking at her for a while, Chu Tiankuo removed his eyes and said,

“Lengmei, are you so available that you came here to question the imperial edict that I asked Queen to announce?”

Lengmei immediately retorted back,

“Your Majesty, please don’t cover the Empress. It is clear that she has forged the edict!”

“Stop! How can a concubine like you know my edict?” Chu Tiankuo did not bother to give Lengmei a glance.

“Releasing Helian Jue is my temporary intention. If you don’t know the truth, don’t talk nonsense! Do you want to rebel?! How dare you defy my words?”

Chu Tiankuo paused and said to Tang Xia, “Queen, you are not doing this right.”

Tang Xia was moved when Chu Tiankuo tried to protect her. Suddenly she heard Chu Tiankuo yelling at her and looked up at him with confusion.

“You are the mother of a country and the imperial queen. This kind of mission should be handed over to the servant. You don’t have to come here and…”

Speaking of this, Chu Tiankuo glanced at Lengmei, “You are trapped by some villain.”

As if she was enlightened, Tang Xia nodded to Chu Tiankuo,

“You are right. I’m negligent. After returning to the palace, I will voluntarily accept the penalty.”

Hearing the conversation between Chu Tiankuo and Tang Xia, Lengmei knew that Chu Tiankuo must stand on the side of Tang Xia, and her face turned pale…

She almost did it. She almost pulled down Tang Xia, who always went against her, from that position. She didn’t expect that the Emperor favored her so much!

Thinking of this, Lengmei became more and more unwilling to get up. She loudly shouted, setting aside etiquette,

“Please think over about it, Your Majesty! You are the king of a country and manage the affairs of the world. You should keep your word. Since ancient times, the king’s words are to be taken seriously.”

What you said and decided can’t be changed. It is inappropriate that you release Helian Jue like this and it is against the rules left by the ancestors! You will be disgraced!”

Lengmei repeatedly refuted Chu Tiankuo’s words, which made the latter very angry. He was just about to ask someone to bring her back to the palace. At this time, Zui Linglong, who had been standing on the side, talked,

“Your Majesty, are you available?”
