The beauty is delicate and soft, and he madly criticizes the powerful officials for taking her as th

When Yu Xiuyun heard that his sister was unwell, he finally couldn't help it and asked to see the queen after going to court.

Yu Xiuyun frowned when he saw the woman in the palace for the first time. There were palace people around him. After he saluted as usual, he said impatiently: "What's going on?"

"I didn't use rouge today. I look more haggard. The imperial doctor has said that I'm fine and don't need to take medicine."

The man in official uniform had veins pulsing in his forehead. Despite his patience, there was still some anger in his tone.

"Why did you use rouge before? It's not good to hide your illness and avoid medical treatment. How can you not take medicine if your health is so bad? Maybe it's because you are afraid of the bitterness of the medicine and refuse to drink it."

Yu Tingwan shook his head and whispered: "The pills sent by the Imperial Medical Office are not bitter."

Pingyang Hou glanced at Ruyi and asked, "So what exactly is the queen's illness?"

After Ruyi said a few words, Yu Xiuyun's face suddenly turned ugly. After looking around, he said softly: "Wan - the queen told her ministers last time that there is a pavilion beside Taiye Pond and the surrounding scenery is very beautiful."

After understanding what he meant, Yu Tingwan said, "Today, my brother and I will go to the Taiye Pond to relax."

She only took Ruyi with her. She walked to the pavilion and sat down. Marquis Pingyang couldn't hide the concern on his brows. He looked at his only sister and asked seriously: "Is your uneasiness because you are worried about Que Wen?"

Yu Xiuyun's tone is like striking jade, and it seems cold and refreshing in the warm wind, making people suddenly wake up.

"There is no need to feel sad about this matter. Your Majesty will leave the news to me." His smile was gentle and clear, "Brother has friendship with him and will not treat him badly."

"I know that you and Que Wen have no affection. Your Majesty doesn't believe you, which makes you feel wronged." Yu Xiuyun lowered his eyelashes, patted the shoulder of the woman next to him with his palm, and sighed with a little emotion: "But I also I didn’t expect him to be so courageous.”

Marquis Pingyang knew a thing or two about his sister's admirers. He thought that Yuan Ziyu would risk his life, but he didn't expect that there was someone who was not afraid of death. He was indeed a miracle doctor who was not even afraid of poisonous insects and miasma.

Yu Tingwan's face turned pale. Hearing the word "grievance", he shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter. He is the emperor. Thunder, rain, and dew are all your kindness. You can think whatever you want."

"Do you really regard him as the emperor?" Yu Xiuyun said softly: "When did Wanwan start to like His Majesty?"

After Pingyang Hou finished speaking, he noticed that his sister's reaction was not right, and said in a panic: "What's wrong? I was frightened into looking like this by a word."

He composed himself and smiled: "Wanwan, since you are the queen, it is normal for you to like His Majesty. I just want to ask you what you think."

"If you like it, if the Cui family continues to clamor for His Majesty to take concubines, I will knock them out with a jade wat at worst."

When the man with an elegant face suddenly looked like an immortal said this, he didn't realize anything was wrong. He did this when he was in Jinling. Now in Chang'an, he has to be more careful not to let the Cui family see his face.

"If you don't like it." Yu Xiuyun showed a relieved smile, "Then I will work hard on errands and be your backer. We can just let nature take its course and live our own lives."

Yu Tingwan's lips moved and her eyes were red. In short, there was no one else around except Ruyi. She suddenly threw herself into her brother's arms and choked with sobs: "How can I like him?"

When Marquis Pingyang heard this, he felt relieved in his heart. His sister had not lost her mind yet and knew not to be tempted by the emperor. She whispered: "Most emperors are ruthless, but it doesn't hurt to use some emotion occasionally. Just don't indulge in it."

"It's not because of this." She breathed quickly, interrupted her brother's words, and said with a trembling voice: "If I were like those who fell in love with him at first sight, fell in love with him when we were in Zichen Palace and followed him, I wouldn't feel pain , you will only feel stupid."

"If I had liked him before leaving the palace, I wouldn't have felt any pain. You know I don't care what those mean people say." Her long eyelashes trembled, "Why now? I feel deeply sorry for you."

Almost instantly, Marquis Pingyang understood who "you" were referring to.

Suddenly he felt a headache. He had already said that His Majesty and his sister were not the same people.

Based on Pei Zhi's temperament and style, if it hadn't been for Yu Tingwan, I'm afraid he would have forgotten the Jiangling Marquis and his ilk. There are many bones under the throne, and he has no shortage of lives in his hands.

Yu Xiuyun was silent. Even in Jingzhou, when Pei Zhi and him were at war with each other, and he wished he could count every account in detail, His Majesty never mentioned a word about the deceased soldiers of the Yu family who died in Chang'an.

Just like the Marquis of Pingyang never mentioned the Dragon-Slaying Guard who died in his hands.

In troubled times, human life can be measured on a scale, and the importance depends on the value. Fu Xun once intercepted and killed Pei Xu's most valued cousin, which did not prevent him from gaining trust and importance after joining the Pei family. Pei Xu asked him to teach his eldest son, those The Pei clan even held their noses and called Fu Xun "General."

In His Majesty's eyes, since mortal hatred can be resolved and become mutually beneficial between the monarch and his subjects, then between husband and wife, there was nothing to care about in the past. They were just subordinates that even the Marquis of Pingyang didn't care about, and their death was as light as a feather.

Only if Yu Tingwan didn't have him in mind would he care about this.

After figuring out the key, Marquis Pingyang suddenly understood why his sister had such obvious affection for His Majesty. She specially selected a bird from Xie Xuan to give to him. He also insisted that the Queen and Que Wen had an affair.

When His Majesty was still the King of Wei, or even earlier, when he was still the Crown Prince, he was already used to others giving up everything they had because of his words or looks, no matter whether they were nobles or poor families, civil servants or military generals. As for the women who admired him, there is no need to mention it. .

Yuan Qi lived in seclusion for several years just waiting for the King of Wei to come. Zhang Yuan worked tirelessly in Youzhou because of the important task entrusted by the King of Wei. Zhang Ji risked his life and rushed to the front line because of the saying "The long clouds can seal the wolf in Xu". , As for the scholars who were admitted this year, Han Chuang studied hard for ten years, only to be favored by the emperor.

The king is used to others' natural devotion and demanding absolute loyalty from others, so any addition of anything else to the affection of the person next to him will appear particularly glaring and disloyal.

Yu Xiuyun didn't know how long he was silent, and asked in a low voice: "As long as everything goes well with you, there is no need to consider others."

When he was in Jinling, he watched with cold eyes for the first time as the accusations were woven into a huge web, and his colleagues who used to talk and laugh happily were hanged. He often had nightmares at night, dreaming of his father saying sadly: "Ayun disappoints me so much."

The guilt for his parents always flooded his head like a tide. At the worst time, he used incense on himself to fall asleep.

Guilt is more torturous than pure love and hate. Pingyang Hou didn't want his sister to have the same experience as him, so he said in a panic: "It's my fault. I shouldn't have used that method in the first place."

He used the bones of dead soldiers to pave the road, and even used them to their best advantage. He let them steal some information about King Wei and caused Pei Zhi a lot of trouble. Therefore, he didn't think about them when he let them come to Chang'an. You can go back alive.

"Brother, why should I take all the blame on myself for my feelings?" Yu Tingwan stared at her brother's eyes that were similar to her own, "If King Wei hadn't gone on the expedition himself, how long could you have lasted?"

"I later saw Jingzhou's food reserves and military strength. Based on the previous battle situation, if His Majesty hadn't suddenly sent troops to fight on two fronts, you would have been able to last at least three years by keeping a low profile." Yu Tingwan never cared too much when talking to his brother. , said seriously: "Although His Majesty will still attack Jing Yi in the future, you will not be able to defeat him by then, but at least you will have more chips."

Her brother was very cautious in political matters and would think of eight escape routes for himself at every step. Even if he surrendered, he would not end up in such an embarrassing situation.

When Yu Xiuyun heard the last sentence "can't beat him", his eyelids twitched, and he took a deep breath and said: "Even if I keep a low profile for three years, the benefits I can get from His Majesty will not be more than what I am now."

He said softly: "Wanwan, I don't know what others think. In short, I don't want you to feel guilty because of me. Whether you like the emperor or the beggar, they are both my sisters and will never change."

Yu Xiuyun gently touched the head of the woman in front of him and asked, "So what do you think of His Majesty?"

There were still water drops hanging on her eyelashes, and her tears were still falling down like strings of beads, hitting the back of the man's hand and breaking into pieces.

"I don't know. The more I like him, the more painful it becomes." She looked up at her brother, "I can't even see him. Can such a feeling be called liking? It doesn't seem like this to fall in love with someone."

Pingyang Hou was speechless, and after thinking for a moment, he said honestly: "I don't quite understand, then... don't worry about it for now. Your majesties have not entered the harem recently, so you can think about it later."

He took out a handkerchief and asked his sister to wipe away her tears. After watching the queen leave, he walked to the low wall next to the pavilion. The partition wall said slowly: "Your Majesty, don't listen to indecent remarks."
