I can redeem the merit template

Wang Yuan's expression moved slightly, and his eyes fell on Taoist Huobo, who was rippling with brilliance, in a blink of an eye, and his eyes moved slightly.

Wang Yuan had vaguely guessed the person behind this letter!

"It's really watertight!"

"Then let's see, it's time to see!"

Wang Yuan put away the letter casually.

……

In Yanfu Palace, the lights are still brightly lit at this time

The palace, illuminated by candles as thick as a child's arm, was magnificent and bright. Empress Liu was marking notes on the imperial case. Empress Liu rarely reviewed notes in Yanfu Palace, and most of them were in Daqing Hall or Chongzheng Hall.

Looking at a large pile of playbooks in front of her, the queen held the imperial pen in her hand, frowned from time to time, sometimes showed an angry look, and sometimes nodded, but when she saw something unsatisfactory, she even threw the playbooks heavily on the ground.

Mingyu, who was next to him, had been waiting by the side. Seeing this, she went forward to pick up these playbooks silently. At this moment, she looked up from the corner of her eye.

"Are you worried, or... anxious!"

Mingyu lowered her head. She has served the queen for many years, and the queen has rarely shown such emotions over the years. Usually, even if a minister scolded her for plotting rebellion, she would not be so angry, let alone Moods change so often.

"That's right, the empress is probably also worried, whether that Tanhualang will recognize her as a mother..."

"Although the queen is strong and cold, she is also a mother!"

Mingyu hoped that the prince would not be misunderstood when they met this time!

Chapter 122

Fan Lou

Fanlou is one of the most prosperous restaurants in the capital.

Many dignitaries like to hold banquets in Fanlou for teachers and friends.

There are also many people who regard Fan Lou as a place to inquire about news.

The restaurants in the city are so high that they cook dragon and phoenix flavors.

Gongsun got off his horse and got drunk after smelling the fragrance. He would spend tens of thousands of dollars on a drink.

Invite distinguished guests, attract high sages, and play music and orchestral upstairs.

All kinds of delicacies, railings and painted eaves on all sides.

This is to describe the prosperity of Fan Lou at this time.

It is rumored that at its peak, Fan Lou paid two thousand yuan in liquor tax to the government every day, and these two thousand coins gradually prospered Fan Lou.

However, Fan Lou is probably just a big piece of fat in the eyes of the government.

It can also be seen from such a high wine tax that the people behind Fanlou are probably not simple. Not everyone can hold such a big piece of fat.

It is said that there is also the royal family and even the shadow of the forbidden palace.

Wang Yuan walked in from outside the fan building, and he could see the bustle above Fan Lou from a distance.

Fanlou is not just a building, but a complex of buildings. In addition to the main building, there are also sub-buildings.

"It's not without reason that some people compare this building with the royal palace..."

Thinking this way in Wang Yuan's heart, he himself came to the third floor surrounded by the friendly servants of Fan Lou.

Many geisha in Fan Louzhong around recognized this young Tanhualang. These geisha are gorgeously dressed, not only bright and charming, with various styles, but also good at singing and dancing.

In the distance, when they saw Wang Yuan coming upstairs, they twisted their slender waists and walked over, but Wang Yuan ignored it, and went up to the third floor before all the girls came around.

……

On the third floor, far above, Empress Liu has already seen Wang Yuan's figure. This time she is dressed in an ordinary lady's attire, and she also wears a cloak. Seeing Wang Yuan dodging these singers with ease, she is entangled. , can't help asking.

"Is there a maid near him?"

Hearing this, Mingyu thought for a while and said, "Ma'am, there is no maid by Tanhualang's side, it is said that there are only two schoolboys who take care of him in daily life!"

"is it?"

The lady in the cloak smiled slightly. Usually, the young masters from rich families already have their own people in the room at this time!

"It's time to add some caring people. If there is no one in the room, people will inevitably be gossiped about. Mrs. Sun doesn't even know this, and she doesn't know how to be a mother...!"

The lady's voice was flat, with a trace of irritation.

Hearing this, Mingyu's words were hard to answer.

The lady quickly turned around and left, leaving Mingyu alone.

"Sir, this way please!"

After Wang Yuan came up, he blocked Wang Yuan's way and led Wang Yuan to an accordion next to him.

Wang Yuan nodded slightly, and immediately followed the woman in the cloak towards the Accord next to him. On the way, Wang Yuan asked with a smile.

"May I ask what this lady's name is, and which mansion is the honored guest who invited me to the banquet this time?"

At this time, Wang Yuan knew what to ask.

Mingyu said with a smile when she heard the words.

"My concubine is Mrs. Mingyu, you don't have to worry about Tanhualang, you'll know when you get there!"

"Really? That's exciting!"

Madam Mingyu also asked:

"I heard that Tanhualang was born in Langya County King Tongpan Mansion, ranked second, and there is an elder brother on top. Tanhualang has already been named on the gold list at his age, and he is not bad at all!"

Wang Yuan said calmly: "Ma'am is wrong about this point, my elder brother is not very interested in official career, and his heart is towards the Western Pure Land, he has already become a monk early..."

Mrs. Mingyu didn't feel embarrassed when she heard the words, she just kept silent for a moment and said, "Young Master, have you ever doubted your true identity?!"

"Why did Madam say this?"

Wang Yuan looked serious, and cast a glance at Mrs. Mingyu.

At this time, the two had reached the door.

Taoist Mingyu stood aside: "Tanhualang, let's go in!"

"In addition, my concubine reminds Tan Hualang that no matter what Madam says, don't be disrespectful to Madam!"

Hearing this, Wang Yuan paused, and immediately opened the bamboo curtain.

The private room is huge when you enter it, and it is very elegant and clean.

Far away, Wang Yuan had already seen a figure also wearing a white cloak.

Although she was wearing a white cloak, she couldn't hide the graceful and luxurious look on her body. Wang Yuan didn't open his eyes, but he still felt an invisible pressure in his heart.

This is not because of the majesty and majesty of the superior in the body of this figure.

Rather, it comes from the identities between each other.

Just seeing this figure, Wang Yuan knew that this must be the one he had guessed in his mind.

He guessed it right!

Wang Yuan's gaze was slightly complicated.

Slightly silent, Wang Yuan spoke first: "May I ask you what your name is?"

Empress Liu looked at Wang Yuan with her eyes, and said softly. "Young man, are you curious why I suddenly entertained you here? You should also be curious about my identity?"

"If I said, I am your biological mother, would you believe it?"

Hearing this, Wang Yuan's eyes moved, but above his expression, he shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm afraid Ma'am is joking!"

It's just that Wang Yuan didn't walk away, his face was very flat.

This expression made Empress Liu feel a little strange. She couldn't help wondering whether Wang Yuan already knew her identity and guessed that this day would come.

Will Mrs. Sun tell Wang Yuan?

"It should be impossible!"

Empress Liu felt that this possibility was very small.

"Then he noticed it himself?"

But this possibility is even lower!

Empress Liu felt weird, but she still said softly:

"Before we get down to business, can you listen to me tell a story first!"

Without waiting for Wang Yuan to agree, he told the story of exchanging the civet cat for the prince from the beginning to the end.

I just told it from the perspective of a queen!

Wang Yuan was one of the witnesses, he realized that Empress Liu was indeed impartial, without any exaggeration!

Empress Liu talked about the past with a calm face, while observing Tanhualang in front of her.

She couldn't help standing up until the last part:

"...In order to protect herself and keep her two sons, the queen reluctantly sent them away. One was given to a highly respected royal prince, and the other was given to the queen's senior sister. Her senior sister was named Sun. She was also the main wife of the fifth house of the Wang family in the Northland, at that time Wang Shaoheng was a county magistrate on Jingxi Road not long after he became a Jinshi!"

"The eldest son of the emperor, the little baby is you, Wang Yuan Wang Tanhua!"

At the end, Empress Liu looked directly at Wang Yuan.

Wang Yuan's face was still calm, and he said lightly: "Madam's story is very vivid, but Madam may have misidentified the wrong person. The son of the fifth house of the Wang family in Xialangya is not a prince!"

Wang Yuan felt that he was already a master of drama.

But he had to.

Between the queen and the prince is the most peculiar pair of mother and son in the world, especially the mother is such a strong and cold person.

It is difficult for royal people to have real family affection.

Even if there is family affection, most of the time power begins to override family affection.

Wang Yuan would never put his own future on this kind of game that is likely to lose!

Empress Liu saw that Wang Yuan didn't believe her, and said again: "I have tokens to prove this matter, Wang Langjun, if I expected it to be true, did you wear a dragon kiss jade pendant since you were a child?"

"How do you know that the jade pendant I keep close to me?" Wang Yuan was surprised, and at the same time took out a broken Dragon Kiss jade pendant from his waist pocket.

The dragon kiss jade pendant was crystal clear, and the dragon pattern embroidered on it was lifelike.

Seeing this, Empress Liu couldn't help being excited, and took the broken Dragon Kiss jade pendant.

"That's it. When sending you two brothers away, the queen left a token on each of you. It was a token of love bestowed by the government to the queen, a pair of mandarin ducks and dragon kiss jade pendants!"

As she spoke, Empress Liu also took out a small piece of the Dragon Kiss Jade Pendant from her sleeve, which happened to be a pair with the Dragon Kiss Jade Pendant in Wang Yuan's hand.

"How could this be?"

Wang Yuan whispered, it seemed that his complexion changed, and his three views were broken...

"Besides, I know exactly where you have moles and birthmarks..."

When Empress Liu said this, she was already very emotional. She had a strong personality, and even after so many years of fighting in the palace, her personality tended to be indifferent, but she still couldn't hide her emotions when facing her own son.

"Then the identity of the lady is..."

Wang Yuan's face was calm, it seemed that he tried his best to conceal the injustice in his heart.

In fact, Wang Yuan is really calm at the moment!

It's not that he didn't look forward to the recognition of mother and child. In fact, for more than ten years, whether it was the establishment of the Black Wing Organization or the initial hard study, it was all for this moment.

Maybe sometimes I look forward to more, but this moment becomes calm, as if it is natural.

"Yes, I am Empress Liu!"

Empress Liu couldn't help taking a step forward, Wang Yuan casually held her up, and then slowly let go after a while.

At the same time, he distanced himself, cupped his hands and said: "My minister will serve as Jiancheng Wang Cunhou to pay homage to the saint!"

Seeing that Wang Yuan walked further away, Empress Liu showed a trace of sadness on her face: "Huanger, you really don't want to recognize me as a mother, are you resenting your mother for giving up your two sons for your own future? ...!"
