Chapter 53 This broken sword is really useless!
Two days later, the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

In the hall, incense smoke curled up from the incense burner, filling the air with a quiet fragrance. The surrounding walls are covered with gorgeous silks and precious paintings and calligraphy, demonstrating the nobility and luxury of the royal family.

All civil and military officials were dressed in solemn court uniforms and arranged neatly according to their rank. They wore black gauze hats, brocade robes embroidered with exquisite patterns, jade belts around their waists, holding wat tablets in their hands, with solemn and expectant expressions.

On this crucial day, there was a tense and solemn atmosphere both inside and outside the palace.

With a majestic bell ringing, the adoption ceremony officially kicked off. Chu Lu walked in wearing a dragon robe and took a seat on the throne.

The Minister of Rites held a golden adoption edict in his hand and read out: "By God's blessing, the emperor's edict says..."

After the reading, the queen led the cold nuns in.

Originally, there should have been a ceremony here to light incense and offer sacrifices to heaven, earth, and ancestors, but the queen was impatient, so a lot of the ritual procedures were simplified.

The queen brought an adoption letter to Chu Lu.

"Press your thumbprints, Your Majesty." The Queen said with a very mocking smile: "After pressing your fingerprints, let her kowtow to you a few more times. You will have a daughter from now on."

Chu Lu looked at the adoption letter. The content was nothing more than saying that Xu Liniang could not give birth to a child, and that for the sake of Dayan's peace, she would adopt one from the clan. Although he is not his biological child, he still enjoys all rights.

He looked at the civil and military officials below again.

Perhaps they felt that it was impossible for Chu Lu to turn over, and they no longer cared about etiquette. They all looked up at Chu Lu, with no concealment of sarcasm, ridicule, and urgency in their eyes.

"Your Majesty, press quickly. What are you writing on?" the Queen said.

So Chu Lu looked at the queen again, who had a similar expression, with the condescension of a winner and a hint of urgency.

He then looked at the adopted daughter, who lowered her head obediently and looked very innocent.

"Stop looking around. Your Majesty, aren't you still expecting someone to come and save you?" The Queen whispered, "Just give up on this idea. Just be obedient! If you cooperate honestly, I can still spare your life."

Chu Lu withdrew his gaze and took the adoption letter.

"That's right." The queen said, "Just press your fingerprints."

At this moment, under the gaze of the queen, his adopted daughter, and all the civil and military officials, Chu Lu looked at the adoption letter, smiled slightly, and used his hands hard.

A tearing sound.

He tore the adoption letter in half!
The sound echoed in the silent palace.

The queen's eyes suddenly widened, and her adopted daughter subconsciously raised her head.

All the civil and military officials were stunned.

"What are you doing?" The next moment, the Queen's sharp voice rang out. She pointed at Chu Lu and said, "Xu Liniang, what are you doing?!"

Chu Lu stood up from the throne and said expressionlessly: "Let's end the adoption. The queen conspired to frame the noble concubine, poison me, and seize the government. She is guilty of the crime. Today I will do justice for heaven and kill the queen. !”

All the civil and military officials were in an uproar. No one expected that Chu Lu would fall out at this time.

The queen was so angry that she sneered: "Ha! You're not pretending anymore, are you? I knew you wouldn't give up so easily!"

She took two steps back, pulled out Shang Fang's sword and said, "Fortunately, I brought the sword with me."

"Xu Liniang!" The queen called her by her first name and said, "Did you see it? This is the Shangfang sword given by the late emperor. It can kill the faint king at the top and the treacherous ministers at the bottom. Why don't you kneel down!"

Chu Lu looked at her posture, laughed out loud, and walked directly towards her.

The queen was startled, suppressed by Chu Lu's posture, and shouted angrily: "You still don't stop! I had a lot of worries in the past few times, so I didn't take action, but this time it's different!"

"Oh? Then do it." Chu Lu said. "I really want to chop him off!" the queen said angrily.

The officials and adopted daughter present all watched this scene nervously.

That's Shang Fang's sword!

There's no way Chu Lu wouldn't be afraid!
However, to their surprise, Chu Lu did not flinch, and even shouted angrily: "Cut it!"

"Ahhhhh!" the queen shouted and chopped down.

Everyone was shocked and widened their eyes.

The next scene shocked them all.

Chu Lu stretched out his hands and caught Shang Fang's sword with his bare hands. Then he twisted and pulled the sword with his hands and snatched it away.

Then Chu Lu's hands were like eagle claws and he exerted force. Only a few crisp sounds were heard, and Shang Fang's sword was unexpectedly broken.

When the queen saw this scene, she was so frightened that her legs went weak and she sat on the ground. She stretched out her trembling right hand and pointed at Chu Lu and said: "That, that is the Shang Fang Sword given by the late emperor! You actually, you actually... aren't you afraid that the late emperor will die with his eyes open?!"

"There's something I've wanted to complain about for a long time." Chu Lu shouted ventedly: "Isn't the late emperor my mother? If my mother sees you holding her sword and hacking her daughter to death, then she will die with her eyes open, okay? ?! How dare you threaten me with her name?"

"Eh?" The queen was stunned, with a look of confusion as if she were a scumbag looking at advanced mathematics.

But then she came to her senses and said: "That's enough! Don't think that you won without Shang Fang's sword! I have decided to hold the adoption ceremony today. I have hundreds of civil and military officials, and I have support..."

Puff.

The cold nun opened her eyes wide and covered her neck, then fell to the ground and died.

The queen looked at this scene and was so frightened that she even forgot the next words.

"I understand what you mean." Chu Lu said slowly: "You have the support of civil and military officials, and you have a suitable candidate to raise a daughter, so you think you are sure to win, right? But it doesn't matter, I have already thought of a countermeasure."

He turned sideways and looked at the officials in front of him and said, "Wouldn't it be better to kill them all?"

The faces of all the civil and military officials turned pale.

"Hehe, hehe, hehe!" The queen looked at the cold nun's body and was stunned at first, and then gradually started laughing wildly.

"Crazy! Crazy! I think you are crazy!" the queen said loudly: "You alone can kill us all? What sweet dreams! Royal Guards! Where are the Royal Guards! Come here quickly!"

A burst of neat footsteps suddenly sounded, and a flow of black people poured in from outside the palace. They were a group of fully armed soldiers.

"Did you see that?" The queen stood up, her face turned ferocious with the anger of losing her new favorite, "The Imperial Guard is in my hands! Who can you kill with a sword by yourself? You're just a clown!"

At this time, the Royal Forest Army had already divided into groups. Some of them blocked the exit, and some of them passed through the civil and military officials and came to the two of them.

"Look at me!" The queen smiled proudly, and then shouted at the soldiers, "The army is listening to the order. The emperor is suffering from hysteria and has gone completely crazy. You don't have to worry about it. I will kill her...chaotic! Knife! Divide!" corpse!"

The last four words were said through gritted teeth.

The general leading the team approached Chu Lu, and then suddenly knelt down on one knee.

The queen was stunned when she saw this, and then shouted angrily: "Why are you kneeling to her! Kill her quickly!"

The general showed no reaction and simply took off his helmet.

Su Muyun said in a deep voice: "Fortunately, the general has lived up to his command and fulfilled His Majesty's instructions. The Royal Forest Army is now in His Majesty's pocket!"
