Chapter 16
Chapter 16 — The Emperor gave me a wedding, the General publicly proposed me as his concubine, I threw away my veil and left
The Queen bent down and looked closely.
“The original seal was scraped off, then the Army archives seal was added.”
The Emperor asked the Minister of Military Affairs:
“That year, who was in charge of preparing Bac Canh's death records?”
The Minister of Defense's voice was tense.
“La Thua Nghiep at that time held the position of Deputy Envoy for Food Transport, and was also in charge of receiving documents after the war.”
"Han Thieu Hanh at that time was only a Principal Lieutenant following the army, not under the General's command."
Although Luc Canh Tham is no longer in the main hall. But his shadow still seems to weigh heavily on everyone. The Thai lady suddenly spoke hoarsely:
“Your Majesty, I have something to tell you.”
The Emperor looked at her. The Thai lady knelt lower.
"That year, after the battle to defend the pass, the fairy returned from Bac Canh to the capital."
“After returning, he fell ill, every night he was delirious that the gate would not open, the fire burned for three days and three nights without going out.”
My heart suddenly sank.
“Why has the Thai lady never mentioned this before?”
Tears rolled down her eyes.
“At that time, the Luc family was also standing in the middle of the storm.”
"The fairy said that the matter in Bac Canh is not something the Luc family can ask about."
"He also said, the Lam family is loyal, if you have the opportunity in the future, take care of the remaining orphans of the Lam family."
I ask word by word:
“So when Your Majesty proposed the marriage, the Luc family did not refuse?”
Lady Thai's face turned pale.
“The old man thought it was to repay the kindness from the past.”
"I didn't know that Canh Tham was raising Lieu outside, and I didn't know that they were hiding these things in the private courtyard in the west of the city."
I closed my eyes, my chest hurt so much. The Queen softly called out:
“Chieu Nha.”
“Goddess is okay.”
Miss Van quickly walked in from outside the palace, holding a small paint tray in her hand.
“Your Majesty, before leaving the palace, General Luc left behind this private seal.”
"He said, if on the way to capture someone holding the same seal to command troops, they must be considered fake and dealt with."
The Emperor picked up the fourth seal and looked at it for a long time.
“He also knows how to patch up loopholes.”
The Thai lady prostrated herself on the ground, her shoulders constantly shaking. I never said to help Luc Canh Tham. Today he hurt me, humiliated me. Although this situation was not created by him alone, it was also his hand that pushed me into the public domain. A person who refuses to see the malice right next to him. It cannot be said that you are completely innocent. The sound of watch drums rang out from outside the palace. It was still dark. The general manager of the inner city suddenly lowered his voice.
"Your Majesty, if there are really people still detained in the Black Stone barracks, La Thua Nghiep hastily exited the city like that, most likely going to kill everyone."
Those words were like a bucket of cold water poured down. I immediately raised my head.
“Your Majesty, I request you to immediately send someone to the Black Stone camp.”
His Majesty said:
“The Imperial Army has gone to arrest La Thua Nghiep.”
“What the goddess asks for is to save people.”
“Chasing him is just to catch him, but saving people must come before him.”
The Emperor was silent for a moment, then looked at the Commander of the Forbidden Army.
“Thirty flying taboo, take the northern route.”
“Order the troops guarding Ngoc Duong station to immediately block all exits into the Black Stone valley.”
The commander of the forbidden army received his orders. I bow person bowing his head.
“Goddess please also go.”
The Queen spoke almost simultaneously:
“No way.”
I raised my head to look at you.
“My lady, that is my eldest brother.”
The Queen's eyes were filled with pity, but she still maintained her composure.
"I'm still wearing my uniform, and I have a wound on my hand. Leaving the capital now will only slow down the journey."
I was about to open my mouth, but His Majesty said:
“Chieu Nha, I promise you, if we find someone, we will immediately bring them back to the capital first.”
“What if I can't find it?”
The main hall was silent for a moment. I stared at that page.
“If the Black Stone camp is empty, if people are no longer there, this goddess must at least see it with her own eyes.”
The Queen gently took a deep breath.
“First change your clothes.”
I was stunned. The person turned to Van and told her:
"Bring the cavalry equipment, prepare the soft armor, and then tell the Thai doctor to bandage her wound."
The Emperor frowned slightly.
"Queen."
The Queen looked over.
“Your Majesty, it can't be stopped.”
"If the Lam family's daughter could swallow that resentment at Luc Palace, she wouldn't be standing here tonight."
The Emperor looked at me for a long time, then finally said:
“You can go.”
“But you can only go to Ngoc Duong station.”
"If you go any further, there will be reinforcements from the forbidden army. Absolutely do not arbitrarily rush into the old barracks."
I bowed my head.
“The goddess receives orders.”
But in our hearts we understand very clearly. If senior brother is really at Black Stone camp, then even if I have to crawl, I will crawl there. When Miss Van helped me stand up, the sound of rapid footsteps suddenly rang out outside the palace.
