Brother Huang, he has been planning for a long time

In the end, Dongming Kingdom and Xihe Kingdom could not escape the battle.

It is rumored that Xihe Kingdom signed a peace agreement with Dongming Kingdom and married the ninth princess of Dongming Kingdom.

But the Ninth Princess died just one year after she married to Xihe Kingdom. This is because Xihe Kingdom never paid attention to Dongming Kingdom and thus killed the young and beautiful Ninth Princess.

Therefore, the Emperor of Dongming State was furious and personally led troops to attack Xihe State.

There are also rumors that the reason why the Emperor of Dongming Kingdom was originally reluctant to establish a queen was because he admired his imperial sister Ninth Princess regardless of human ethics.

Xiheguo learned that in order to take advantage of Dongmingguo's weakness, he used a trick to forcefully marry the ninth princess.

The Ninth Princess married into Xihe Kingdom because she missed the Emperor of Dongming Kingdom too much, so she died of depression within just one year.

When the Emperor of Dongming Kingdom learned of the death of his lover, his head turned gray overnight.

To avenge his lover, he personally led troops to attack Xihe Kingdom.

There are different opinions as to whether the rumors are true or false.

After Xihe Kingdom lost to Dongming Kingdom more than ten years ago, it has been hiding its capabilities and biding its time.

Therefore, in this battle, the power of Xihe Kingdom is equal to that of Dongming Kingdom, and no one loses.

However, during this battle, hundreds of members of Ji Shangshu's family died inexplicably in the Western Capital City of Xihe Kingdom.

There are rumors in the Western Capital City that Ji Shangshu's family bullied men and women in the Western Capital City by virtue of their relationship with the Queen Mother. This time they were exterminated for no reason. It was because someone couldn't see it and acted on behalf of heaven.

There were rumors that their family had offended someone, so they were destroyed.

However, these things were overshadowed by the war between the two countries.

This war lasted for three years, and Dongming State declared a complete armistice.

Then it was reported that Emperor Yue Qinghe of the Dongming Kingdom abdicated inexplicably and passed the throne to Prince Teng Yue Qingzhou.

And he retired as regent.

Yue Qingzhou thought that after he suddenly passed the throne to her, she would no longer have to bear his cold face.

But he didn't expect that after he became the regent, he became more strict with himself.

It made him look for his queen every night to comfort his weak heart.

Two years after Yue Qingzhou came to power, when the Southern Jin Dynasty came to pay tribute to treasures, he suddenly sent an invitation.

Yue Qingzhou felt that something was fishy, ​​so he called Yue Qinghe to discuss it together.

"Lao Wu, look, the Southern Jin Kingdom changed its queen a few years ago. What does this queen mean when she suddenly sent us an invitation?"

He looked at the man in the palace who was wearing a crescent-white robe and a silver-haired jade crown, and handed the invitation to him personally.

In the two years since Yue Qinghe stopped fighting, in addition to recuperating, he spent more time searching for Yue Qingchen's whereabouts in the Southern Jin Kingdom.

Just two years ago, he was seriously injured on the battlefield, and Li Mo diagnosed that he was beyond recovery.

Fortunately, his mother came out of the palace immediately after receiving the news and rushed to his side.

"Qinghe, queen mother, please, you must live, that girl is not dead." His mother, who had always wanted to be strong in her life, knelt beside him with tears in her eyes, losing her aloof solemnity, and pleading humbly.

He sneered, not believing her words at all, thinking that he would soon be able to go down to find his Qingchen.

This battle had gone on for too long, and he had kept her waiting for too long.

He was so tired.

"What the Queen Mother said is true, you believe the Queen Mother." The person beside him held his big hand, fearing that he would not believe it and said quickly: "Yue Qingchen was taken away by her mother. She is not dead. Her mother She is not Ling Qi's sister at all, but the princess of the Southern Jin Kingdom! She did not die that year, she faked her death and left the Dongming Kingdom to return to the Southern Jin Kingdom. If you don't believe it, you can pick up her coffin after you recover from your injuries. , there is no trace of her bones in it.”

"If she really faked her death and left Dongming Country, why didn't she take young Qingchen away with her?" Yue Qinghe grabbed her wrist and asked.

Ran Yu saw that he seemed to have the idea of ​​​​surviving, so she could only tell the truth, "Maybe it is because of Yue Qingchen's biological father."

"What do you mean by your mother's words?" Yue Qinghe was about to struggle to get up, but was held down by Ran Yu.

"Yue Qingchen is not the flesh and blood of the late emperor at all, but the son of Ling Yi who was defiled by bandits while trying to save the late emperor in the Southern Jin Kingdom. The late emperor loved Ling Yi too much, and in order to repay Ling Yi's life-saving grace, Only then did he take Yue Qingchen into the palace and raise him as his own child."

After hearing this, Yue Qinghe collapsed on the couch, "The queen mother deceived her son so miserably. You knew a long time ago that Qingchen and I are not brothers and sisters at all, but you have been using our status as brothers and sisters to break us up!"

"My mother doesn't know... you have such deep feelings for that girl. If I had known you would be in such pain, my mother would not have separated you. That girl is a kind-hearted person, but my mother realized it too late. Qinghe, please forgive my mother. , live well and stop torturing yourself with fighting, she is still alive...may be in the Southern Jin Kingdom now."

Ran Yu's words lingered in his mind. After hearing the news, Yue Qinghe also stopped the war with Xihe Kingdom and sent all his men to the Southern Jin Kingdom to find Yue Qingchen's whereabouts.

It's just that in the past two years, their people have been unable to sneak into the imperial palace of the Southern Jin Kingdom.

Therefore, there was no way to find out what was going on in the palace, and there was no trace of Yue Qingchen's whereabouts in the Southern Jin Kingdom.

Yue Qinghe lowered his eyes and looked at the invitation handed over by Yue Qingzhou, with a meaningful smile on his handsome face, "Then just send someone to the Southern Jin Kingdom to accept the invitation."

Yue Qingzhou was worried about this matter, "Who would be better to send?"

The seventh person familiar with the southern side has been dead for many years.

"My king, let's go."

"You?" Yue Qingzhou shook his head when he heard this, "No, no, if this is some conspiracy of the queen, you will be in danger. I absolutely cannot let you take that risk."

Yue Qinghe reached out and patted his shoulder, "Don't worry, I will be careful."

After that, he put away the invitation and turned around to leave the imperial study.

"Hey, Lao Wu, can you listen to my advice?" Yue Qingzhou wanted to call him to stop him, but he didn't listen to him at all and left the imperial study room.

……

After Yue Qinghe received the invitation, he immediately set off for the Southern Jin Kingdom.

There are not many people with him, they are all people he trusts.

As for Yue Qingzhou being protected by heavy flames, there should be no problem.

After Yue Qingzhou ascended the throne, although Ran Yu was still the Queen Mother, she was not as prosperous as before.

Most of the time, she sat in meditation in the Buddhist hall set up by Mingshou Hall and ate mostly vegetarian dishes.

When she learned that Yue Qinghe was leaving for the Southern Jin Kingdom, she invited him to the Mingshou Palace.

"Mother." When they arrived at the Mingshou Hall, Yue Qinghe saluted her and raised his eyes to look at the sitting woman. In the past few years, her body was not as good as before, and her face became more haggard. He couldn't help but frown slightly, "Mother. If you feel unwell, you can ask the imperial physician to take a look at you."

"My mother is fine, it's just a minor problem." Ran Yu's eyes still fell on his silver hair, and her eyes still contained distress, "It's just your hair, what can Li Mo say?"

"It's just external, it doesn't affect it."

"Are you determined to go to the Southern Jin Kingdom?" Ran Yu took a deep breath and asked the key points.
