Chapter 357: The Imperial Concubine is Pure and Elegant (One Hundred and Six)

As an imperial concubine, Cui Li's dress was quite simple, with very few accessories on her body, but the seven-tailed phoenix hairpin on her head was bright and eye-catching, which really set off her good complexion.

Cui Li is still as beautiful as before, but with a little more popularity and a little less aloofness.

She sat intimately beside the Queen Mother. The two looked like mother and daughter. The Queen Mother's eyes were full of love, and Cui Li also had the delicate demeanor of a little girl, but she would occasionally focus on her abdomen, showing a bit more tenderness.

Cui Li: "I heard that Young General Ji recaptured two cities in a row, and the news of his victory reached the court. His Majesty and the ministers were overjoyed. Now that General Ji is guarding the border, Young General Ji continues to charge into battle. He is truly a hero of our Daliang."

The Queen Mother was also very happy. She turned to the Queen and said, "Queen, your father and brother are both pillars of the country. The old general is a man of great vision and foresight; the young general is brave and skilled in battle. He is a man of integrity and a man of high character!"

Ji Shilan was also very proud of her father and brother. She rarely smiled recently, but now she smiled with pride in her tone.

Empress Ji: "Your Majesty, your praise is too great. My father and brother simply did what they were supposed to do as citizens of Daliang. Recovering lost territory is the wish of every citizen of Daliang. My father has always wanted to recover the lost Five Cities. Now that he has the opportunity to realize his wish, he is truly honored."

Ji Wei just sat down, and when she heard these words, there was a hint of surprise in her eyes.

What? Why would two countries go to war at this time?

In the previous life, the two countries lived in peace and there was no chance of war this year.

And didn't Qi have the power to fight back? Would they just let Daliang invade Qi and recapture the lost territory?

Who is the current emperor of Qi? Isn't it the eldest prince born to the Queen of Qi who will succeed him? The eldest prince of Qi is cruel and warlike. In his previous life, he was the one who took the initiative to attack Daliang.

Unfortunately, there was civil unrest in Qi. The two emperors' years of tyranny had led to widespread public resentment, and every day people rose up in rebellion and tried to invade the capital.

Under internal and external troubles, Qi was the first to be conquered by Daliang.

The emperor of Qi was dragged to the city gate by the angry people and hung there for public display.

I heard that the soldiers of Daliang were welcomed into the capital by the people of Qi.

Ji Wei thought about her previous life and really couldn't understand why there were such big changes in this life.

Such a big thing, why didn't she hear anyone around her talking about it? She only found out about it now.

Ji Wei suddenly realized that she was out of touch and had no idea about the major events in the world, but her last group of people could only continue to hide, and she did not dare to contact them rashly.

The Queen Mother thought of the assassination attempt on New Year's Eve and said unhappily, "Then let the old Emperor of Qi die. He left a backup plan behind, intending to get rid of Sheng'er. Fortunately, the Emperor's martial arts were so powerful that they didn't succeed. We should also thank Li'er for helping everyone detoxify. Otherwise, we wouldn't even be able to escape."

Cui Li waved his hands and smiled, refusing to take any credit.

Cui Li: "Aunt, Li'er dare not take credit for it. It was just an accident. Ever since I got injured, I like to carry some medicine pills with me when I go out, just in case. Who knew I would actually use them? This is all thanks to Court Judge Qiao. I asked him for a lot of medicine. Ming Zhaoyi was able to stop the bleeding in time, thanks to Court Judge Qiao's medicine."

The Queen Mother was a little surprised. It turned out that Qiao Yuanpan also contributed to this. She immediately assumed that the detoxification pills were made by Qiao Zhi.

After two months of rest, Ji Mingyue's abdomen has healed a lot. She has been bedridden recently to recuperate, which has made her feel a little depressed. She has been thinking all day about how to give Ji Wei a big gift.

When she heard this, she quickly stood up and thanked Cui Li, and said that she would give Qiao Zhi a backup gift.

Cui Li smiled and nodded, looking at Ji Mingyue with a hint of teasing.

Qiao Zhi has also prepared a generous gift for you. Once you see that gift, you will probably hate him to death.

But thinking about the recent discovery of Ji Mingyue's back-up plan, it was really exciting! It was worth it for her to spare Ji Mingyue's life.
