Qiu Xiang walked out of the chamber in relief only after she heard the empress, Shangguan Que Xue, say so.

Before long, the Vice Commander of the imperial guards walked in by himself.

"This official greets the empress. The empress has lived for thousands of years." The Vice Commander of the imperial guards was still very respectful to the empress, Shangguan Shunxue, and couldn't tell from his gloomy expression that he had brought his sabre to guard the camp tonight.

"Exempt." The reason I called you here so late is because I wanted to discuss some other things with you. and did not disappoint me. " Queen Shangguan Guangxue said.

"Empress, don't worry." "This is an important matter, so this official will definitely act according to the Empress' wishes. I wonder if the Empress has any other orders?" The Vice Commander of the imperial guards said.

"This time, you caused such a huge trouble. I've done my best to help you. If I didn't see you working so hard for so many years for Sir Shangguan, I would never care about your life. However, I hope that you won't be so impulsive in the future. Those who achieve great things not only have to take it lightly, they also have to make a prompt decision.

If I hadn't taught you to deal with those two disasters, you and I wouldn't have been here talking so leisurely tonight. You should know by now that the Yuwen Imperial Concubine isn't an ordinary character. This time, I just happened to get in the way of Yi Fei, who had a good relationship with imperial concubine Yuwen.

Imperial Concubine Yuwen is already fighting with me to the death. Next time, if I am to confront imperial concubine Yuwen head on, I do not want you to be cowering at a crucial moment like this. If you dare to ruin my affairs, you have followed me for so many years. Do you understand? " Queen Shangguan Guangxue said.

After the Vice Commander of the imperial guards heard the words of the empress, he knew that Shangguan Canxue still needed to make use of him, so he would not be punished for now. When the imperial guards knew Shangguan Longxue was still useful, they wouldn't kill him. But when a person was no longer useful in Shangguan Longxue's eyes, he would ruthlessly abandon that person, or even kill him directly.

"This official thanks the empress for trusting this official as before." Right now, this official was just being lenient. Since the empress doesn't blame this official, then this official must be grateful for his kindness, and work properly for the empress and Sir Shangguan in the future. I hope the empress can still take care of this matter as before. This official cannot thank you enough. " The Vice Commander of the imperial guards knew that the matter had been cleared up when he heard the words from the empress Shangguan Congxue, so he hurriedly expressed his loyalty again in front of the empress.

"As long as you know. The reason I called you over today is precisely for tomorrow's Blessed Ghost Exorcist Ceremony. I believe that you also know that I personally managed this Great Wishing Ghost Exorcist Ceremony. I want to use this Blessed Ghost Exorcist Ceremony to build up my prestige as the empress. You should know that although Empress Dongfang back then is already dead, whether it is in the heart of the emperor or the concubines of other palace maids, my influence and deterrence are still far below that of Empress Dongfang's.

Therefore, you must help me properly in this trip to the Devil's Exorcist Hall. Of course, I will instruct you to do something. You must follow my instructions and do it properly. This can also be considered as me making up for the mistake you made last time. I hope that you can take good care of this matter, understand? " The empress was half serious and half joking as she spoke.

However, when he heard the words of the Vice Commander of the imperial guards, he knew that although the Empress's plan had been disrupted by the imperial concubine of Yuwen, she didn't seem to have received any major blow to her. Instead, she was ready to regroup and fight with the imperial concubine of Yuwen.

"Empress, please rest assured." This official had already carefully thought over my unwise actions before coming to Phoenix Palace. This time, I will definitely change my mind and work properly for the Empress. "Esteemed Empress, don't worry. I was hoping that after receiving the empress's news tonight, I'll immediately behead field officer Wang Jin and offer him to the emperor. Although field officer Wang Jin has been with this official for many years, this official knows that I have no other choice."

This official's death is nothing to lament, but this official can't involve the Empress' safety just because of some personal feelings, so this official wanted to kill him. This official once again had to thank the Empress for all her arrangements, so that this official could prepare in advance. Otherwise, in a sudden situation, this official might not be able to be ruthless enough to kill field officer Wang Jin.

"Esteemed wangfei, if there's anything you need to tell this official, this official will definitely do things properly for the empress." To go through fire and water, and not say a word. " The Vice Commander of the imperial guards said.

"Alright, since you say that, then I can leave some things to you without worry. The ceremony of the Blessed Ghost Exorcist is about to begin. Send someone you trust and trust to help me collect a few items outside the palace. "Remember, this matter is classified as top secret, and only you, as the deputy commander of the imperial guards, who was sent out to make a guess would not arouse so much suspicion. This is also my test for you." Shangguan Tianxue became more cautious as he spoke.

"Esteemed Empress, please rest assured. But this official doesn't know what items this official needs from you." "This official will definitely choose a trusted person to take care of this important matter in the palace. I don't know what items esteemed empress will want, but I'd like to ask esteemed empress to clarify this matter." The Vice Commander of the imperial guards said.

"A few days ago, when I was chatting with the Ghost Catcher Grandmaster, I heard that there was a type of medicine that could confuse one's mind. Only after I read through a lot of ancient books did I discover that the original name of this medicine was' Three Laughing Frenzy Powder '. Go and help me prepare a few more things. There was also a potted plant called Mystery Bamboo that was helping me collect it. "You can send someone to prepare these things later. I need to see these things before the prayer ceremony for the blessings of tomorrow morning's Wishing Ghost Exorcist Ceremony ends." The empress Shangguan Canxue said after thinking for a while.

"Esteemed Empress, this official has never heard of these things before. May I ask, esteemed empress, what are these two things used for?" The Vice Commander of the imperial guards asked with a frown on his face.

"Haha!" It's okay to tell you, but you'll know tomorrow. However, this matter is of great importance, so I should still be more careful. Tonight, I have ordered Autumn Fragrance to send a red piece of clothing to Yuwen Imperial Consort's Wutong Palace. As for the other matters, I will not talk about them. If you can guess them, then it will be your own intelligence.

Since it's important, I can only tell you so much. Tomorrow is the Revelation Ceremony. After nightfall, I will get Qiuxiang to summon you again, depending on the situation. "You have to do your job well. After this grand ceremony, I will come with Sir Shangguan to reward you. Do you understand?" Shangguan Manxue said this in an unclear tone.

"Yes, this official understands." This official will do his best to collect these two items for the Empress to return to the palace. This official was just curious for a moment, I hope esteemed empress doesn't blame me. " The Vice Commander of the imperial guards said with fear and trepidation.

When the empress saw the expression of the deputy commander of the imperial guards, she felt quite satisfied with the deterrence she'd maintained. Shangguan Canxue only wanted to give this Vice Commander of the imperial guards in front of him a good beating. After all, the reason why Shangguan Bian Xue had trained so painstakingly for so many years was to make everything that could be used as a tool for him to call the wind and summon the rain in the harem.

Tonight, when Shangguan Tianxue saw the proud look on the vice commander's face, he felt a bit unhappy. Shangguan Canxue had prepared in advance to take advantage of the name of the emperor's Xuan Yuan, Chen Mo. He was prepared to slowly subdue the vice captain under his own name as well.

He didn't expect that today's Emperor Xuanyuan Chen Mo would intentionally go against him. Not only did he obey Yuwen Yanran's words, he even treated her with kindness in front of himself, or in front of so many officials and concubines in the hall.
