Chapter 696

Cao An didn't dare to disturb the empress who was in pain. He quietly bowed out of the emperor's bedroom, listening to the sad sobs coming from inside, his heart was also in pain.

Originally, he wanted to keep the empress quiet for a while, but Cao An just stayed at the gate for a while, and then he saw the bodyguard who was in charge of guarding the Palace door running anxiously.

"What's the matter?"

He stepped forward and stopped the guard. Cao An's face was very blue. He didn't want to let people in to disturb the empress.

"Mr. Cao, it's not good. All the ministers waiting outside are quarreling. They have to come in to meet your majesty..."

The sweat of the bodyguard's head, I don't know whether it's the hot sweat because of anxiety or the cold sweat because of panic.

Cao An's face was dignified. He knew that the empress would have to go out to meet the officials at this time to hold these people down.

However, let him go in now, Cao An also can't bear it.

"Duke Cao?"

The bodyguard doesn't know how to deal with this kind of thing. If the officials make trouble again, I'm afraid the situation will be difficult to clean up.

Cao An also hesitated. Can the empress, who is in great sorrow, really meet the ministers as usual?

"Cao An."

A cold voice came out of the bedroom. Cao An turned his head in a hurry, but was surprised to find that the queen came out.

The tears on his face had been wiped clean, and the momentum of his cold face made people have the illusion of seeing his Majesty in person.

"Queen."

Cao An knelt down in a hurry. He didn't dare to look at the cold cheek. It was a pair of cool eyes.

"Take my palace to meet the ministers and take the blood edict with you."

Huo Mingzhu's voice has no ups and downs, as if the woman crying in front of Xuezhao was not herself.

But her hoarse voice and the swelling of her eyes eventually betrayed the emotion she wanted to hide in her heart - those courtiers, now that Baili Jingqi is not dead, do they dare to demonstrate around the palace gate?!

This is the land of Dayong. He used his life to settle down for himself and his sons and daughters. Can they touch and talk to each other?!

With a steady step, the empress walked out of the room, cool and resolute. Cao An was frightened, but she didn't dare to disobey her orders and hurriedly followed her.

Tears will always dry up

Now that man has fallen down, he can no longer become a bulwark against the wind and frost for himself. He has done everything he can, and the rest of himself, who has no dependence, needs to be strong for a pair of children at this moment.

Huo Mingzhu's hands tightly clasped in her sleeves, and her eyes became colder and colder as she looked closer and closer at the noise, just like the hundred Li Jingqi standing in the position of the ninth five.

"Here comes the queen."

Cao an exhausted his strength and cried out indignantly from his chest. His heart was also full of pain and uneasiness, but he felt more distressed for the empress.

Those ministers, who were still talking, knelt down on their knees when they heard the voice. They buried their heads on the ground respectfully. Only from the corner of their eyes could they see a bright yellow robe sweeping in front of them.

"Your Majesty's blood edict"

After looking at the empress standing still, Cao An stooped slightly to her body and raised the warm blood imperial edict in his arms in front of her.
