[Rebirth] Chronicle of the Two Capitals

As we all know, a one-word king is more noble than a two-word king. The title of the county king is false and the prince is real. .Yan, which means the land of Yan, an important town in Gyeonggi, is a gathering of talents from all directions, and it is not comparable to humble uniforms—if you put it more clearly, it is the difference between the mayor of the political and cultural center and the governor of a certain province.The emperor hated this son, so he sent him as far away as possible. It is impossible to say that he was exhausted halfway through the mountains and rivers to congratulate him. dog hair.

However, the king of Linchuan County never liked the emperor, but he entrusted him with a heavy responsibility if he didn't like it, which might be a sign of a sudden change.

Because it is a holiday, all officials are living in the house. The edict was drafted by Zhongshusheren without the Ministry of Rites. It was stamped with the seal and issued by itself. Everyone heard that it was a capitalized black question mark—except Yan Dang .There is no change in the words of gold, and it is too late to persuade.Yesterday, the game was turned back, Feng Shui took turns, and today it fell to the downwind, Xiao Shen was so annoyed, anger was anger, he had to do face-saving projects, so he ordered the staff in the mansion to write congratulatory forms and family orders to prepare congratulatory gifts, and give them away on a certain day Go to Yan Wang's mansion.

After all, personal strength is limited, Xiao Shen is not a person who presumptuously entrusts himself to greatness, he gave good orders, and wanted to find someone outside to deal with him, he thought the official sedan chair was slow, so he ordered someone to lead the horse.As soon as the words were finished, Ming Yanzhi, the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, was notified at the front door. Ming Yanzhi and Xiao Shen were good friends in the same imperial examination, and another cousin worked in the imperial hospital. The medical officer diagnosed and treated high-ranking officials. On the contrary, the ministers of power know it in detail.

Xiao Shen hurriedly ushered him in, the two talked while walking inside, the servant saw this and had no choice but to lead the horse back to the stable.

Ming Yan's appearance is gentle, his conversation is elegant, even if it is urgent, he said in an unhurried manner: "Your Majesty has been away from court for days, and everyone is worried about the body of the dragon. The pulse case is secret and cannot be investigated. My cousin was on duty yesterday and had a meeting with a certain person. Let me tell you something—" The two stepped into the main hall, Ming Yanzhi stopped, looked around, Xiao Shen spoke and retreated.Then, Ming Yanzhi whispered in his ear, "The prescription is changed again and again, and the nature is very strong." The emperor's pulse case has always been kept by the doctor of the imperial hospital, and it is confidential, but the prescription is discussed through the cooperation of experienced medical officers presided over by the doctor. The stronger the prescription, the worse the emperor's illness.

Xiao Shen's face changed slightly, Ming Yanzhi's words confirmed his guess.The emperor's illness has worsened, and he has plans to arrange his funeral. The young emperor has had enough of being held hostage by powerful officials. The emperor has had enough, and he does not want future generations to suffer this crime again. The sixth highness, Tang Dai, is only nine years old. Complementary.If it can last for a few more years, it should not be the current situation.

Guessing right, Xiao Shen was not even half complacent, but instead became deeply worried.

Seeing that his brows were tightly frowned, Ming Yanzhi comforted him: "King Yan is not the crown prince, and there is still room for him to return to the world." The emperor took one step forward and one step back, saying that he was arranging the funeral, but not doing it thoroughly. News, the smile is not very down-to-earth.A few years ago, the emperor's mind was easy to guess, but now, like an old and sick person, the emperor's mind is unpredictable.

Xiao Shen's complexion softened slightly, he sighed with his beard: "Right now, I just hope that no one will invite you to come out of the town." King Yan, going out of the town is the vassal, how is the vassal of Yan different from the crown prince?Suffering from a chronic illness, he couldn't stand the stimuli of others. If he used words to provoke the emperor to make an early decision-to establish a crown prince or become a king, it would be counterproductive.

Ming Yanzhi was slightly stunned, and then smiled and said: "How could it be. You are all sensible people, even Yan Dang. Because you can't grasp the king's heart, you may not be willing to give it a go." In case the invitation was made, the emperor felt regretful. , is self-defeating.

Xiao Shen remained silent, just shook his head, went inside, invited Ming Yanzhi to sit down, looked at the clepsydra in the corner, and suddenly asked: "The servant came from Wusha Lane, did you pass by Buerzhai?"

The topic jumped too fast, Ming Yanzhi was a little confused, so he smiled after a long while and said, "Your Highness the Seventh Prince is out on a trip, the martial law is near Buerzhai, so someone came here by detour." The emperor personally sent several teams of personal guards to surround Buerzhai , Drip does not leak, Xiao Xiang should not know, why do you have this question?Ming Yanzhi felt that it was even more strange. If he asked, it would be insulting to people's IQ, so he had to hold back.

Martial law is still in place, and there is no chaos yet, Xiao Shen said silently in his heart, everything must go well.

Ming Yan is actually an idealist, people are divided into three, six or nine, and IQ is also divided into three, six or nine, and there are many people who are confused among you.At this very moment, in the Jinshen Palace, there is a person who does not know whether he is dead or alive. He made an impassioned statement, and his words were fierce. He asked the King of Yan to leave the town—to ask the King of Yan to choose a vassal in another place, or to make the King of Yan the heir. Your Majesty Give me an accurate word!

This person is Zhang Xianzhao, who became famous four years ago with his call to crusade against the Yan family. He has three years of experience as an editor of the Imperial Academy.His intention of coming here was to force the emperor to withdraw his order, find an excuse, and change it to another title. Even if the emperor refuses to allow it and convicts him in anger, he will be famous forever without regrets.

The emperor was half lying on the couch, coughing continuously, and drinking a cup of American ginseng tea made it better.His complexion was pale, and his chapped lips were moistened with tea, and his color was beginning to show. Xu Dehai helped him get up from the bed.Seeing the emperor's inconvenient appearance, Zhang Xianzhao was really surprised, and after being surprised, he became more urgent. He stepped forward, knelt down, kowtowed, and said, "Your Majesty, conferring a king's vassal is a golden rule. There are rules to follow when you become an ancestor. You must not Violating the ancestral etiquette!"

The emperor put his hands on his knees, sat upright, and quietly looked at the mere seventh-rank young censor in front of him, with an imperceptible sneer on the corner of his mouth, even though he was seriously ill, his prestige was still there, this sneer was very creepy Fortunately, Zhang Xianzhao didn't look up, otherwise he would definitely break out in a cold sweat.

Xu Dehai waited at the side, looked at the emperor's face, and looked at Zhang Xianzhao with concern. The emperor ascended the throne when he was young, and was detained by the empress dowager first, and all the assistant ministers took care of him. The words suppress the emperor.There is a limit to everything, and the opposite is true if you go too far, but the courtiers knowingly committed the crime, just to fulfill their good reputation of being loyal and admonishing the Lord.

Zhang Xianzhao's head rested on the floor tiles, he hadn't heard the emperor's signal for a long time, and the hall was particularly quiet, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead unconsciously.The king's heart is like the sea, and it cannot be easily broken. After a while, the emperor smiled lightly and said: "Qing's chess skills are very good, why don't you play a game or two while you are busy."

Can... can you play cards according to common sense?I'm here to speak up and speak out, Your Majesty, play a crazy game!Besides... Zhang Xianzhao still didn't look up, bit his lower lip, he was really ashamed, he used to sit in a well and watched the sky, he boasted that he was an excellent chess player, Yanjing Hidden Dragon Crouching Tiger, for several years he knew how much he was, and the skills of a three-legged cat were not worth it It's a great mention.

The emperor's words are the imperial decree, dare not disobey, Zhang Xianzhao said respectfully, and stood up.The two sat across the table, holding black and white chess pieces, and when they were about to make a move to start the game, they suddenly heard the noise and voices outside the hall.Xu Dehai went out to check, and soon he rushed back and said worriedly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Seventh Prince was assassinated in Bu Er Zhai!"

The chess piece in the emperor's hand fell at the sound, and the black eyebrows became majestic as the emperor. He looked at Xu Dehai, and asked in a deep voice: "Really? Who did it?" The emperor tried his best to keep calm, but his words trembled slightly, as if he was angry .The guards he sent over were all brave men, and Bu'erzhai is located in a busy city, there are often guards from Shuntian Mansion patrolling with knives, even a fly may not be able to fly in, how could he be assassinated?

Xu Dehai's face was also full of panic, he pointed to the outside of the hall, and said anxiously: "The soldier hesitated, didn't say a single sentence, and his words were extremely vague, all he knew was that His Royal Highness Seventh Prince has been escorted back to the palace by General Liu, Your Majesty..." The emperor He got up quickly, pushed Xu Dehai away, and strode out of the hall with strides. After a few steps, his powerless pace slowed down again, and he held the edge of the table to cover his mouth and coughed for a while, his voice was very hoarse.Xu Dehai hurriedly stepped forward to help, summoned the dragon chariot, and moved it to Weiyang Palace.

Chess player Zhang Xianzhao, who was alone, looked at the emperor's trembling back in a daze, and had a question in his heart: His Highness the Seventh?What about the "evil warding off sword" kept in Weiyang Palace?She is young, and she is a daughter, let alone her own daughter. Why does His Majesty care so much about this? It is very difficult to get up from the bed. Just send a confidant over to visit.Strange and weird...

When the emperor arrived at Weiyang Palace, there were already old palace people waiting there, leading the emperor to the bedroom.Walking along the way, the servants in the palace maid lowered their eyebrows and looked down, just like usual, orderly.With such an atmosphere, the emperor's mood calmed down, and his pace slowed down a bit. Xu Dehai supported the emperor, and secretly praised the empress for her good governance.Xu Dehai is a veteran of the two dynasties, and he was there when Empress Yuan was there. In fact, since the two empresses are sisters, there must be similarities. Otherwise, the emperor might not have approved the empress to be in the middle palace.

Xu Dehai lowered his head and muttered silently. Suddenly, the emperor hurried forward. He hastened to keep up with him. He raised his eyes to look, and was suddenly startled—the palace servant walked out of the bedroom. The palace servant held a copper basin with a silk handkerchief inside, and the silk handkerchief was soaked in blood After entering the water, circles of flocculent blood ooze out.Seeing Sheng Jia in person, the palace attendant knelt down to pay her respects, the emperor coughed violently, and hurriedly brushed past her, went straight into the hall, and rushed to the side of the bed.

The queen sat on the edge of the bed, holding a warm towel, and carefully wiped the sweat for Tang Yan, whose eyes were closed and his face was pale.She has always been cold and indifferent, showing neither emotions nor anger, but now, deep worry is buried between her brows and eyes, and she is even slightly guilty. Her eyes are fixed on Tang Yu's right arm, where there is a sword wound, It was about the length of a finger, not deep, and there was no turning of flesh. It was actually a minor injury.When the medical officer was treating the wound, she watched, cleaning, stopping the bleeding, applying medicine, wrapping gauze... Seeing each of them into the eyes, she felt pain in her heart, as if this child was really like her own flesh and blood. Then it hurt a lot.

The queen was fascinated, and she didn't hear the emperor's arrival, until the emperor's big man's hands touched Tang Yu's forehead to check the temperature, and then she came back to her senses and hurriedly got up to salute.It was also the emperor's permission for Tang Yu to go out to play in the palace. He had no intention of blaming the empress. He also knew that the empress had a cold temper. Seeing that her eyes were surrounded by red circles, his heart softened. The statement was a little reassuring: "It's just a flesh injury, the low fever is because she is weak, and her life is not in danger."

Fathers and mothers are always different. The slightest bump in the child makes the mother nervous to death, and when it comes to the father, she will lightly describe the scars of growth.At this moment, it was the same. The emperor had seen the child and knew that she was fine, so he turned around and shouted angrily at Liu Duo who had been trembling for a long time: "You come with me! Explain the matter clearly! Yanjing, at the root of the imperial city, Someone dares to assassinate the princess when she is traveling! I live in the Forbidden Palace, and I am under your protection, how can I be safe?"

The words came to his ears indistinctly, Tang Yu fell asleep, and the slightest movement of his right arm felt like a heart attack. The pictures in Bu Er Zhai repeatedly flashed in his mind, the pictures were intertwined, more and more chaotic, but more and more clear All the details of the front and back were organized together, clearly telling her the fact that it was impossible to be assassinated...

It couldn't have been an assassination.

After a brief lucidity, the screaming pain from all over the body cut off the flashing picture in his mind.

The sword wound on the right arm was probably caused by the medicine, and it gradually started to burn like a fire.The inside of the skull also seemed to be set on fire, and the firewood was thrown in one by one, and the fire became more and more fierce, burning all the way from top to bottom.Tang Yu felt as if she was in a stove, her body was so hot that it was almost smoking, and her throat was also very uncomfortable. She wanted to drink water, and when she drank a large tank of water, she opened and closed her lips subconsciously. struggled out of his throat, weak and mute.

Like sleepwalking, he kept repeating vague demands in his mouth.She vaguely heard the sound of bowls touching each other, the sound was clear and messy, and she seemed a little anxious and worried. The next moment, a spoon was pressed against her lips, and another hand gently pulled her chin, and then slowly Pour over warm liquid.

The long drought meets the rain, she is in such a state right now.Extremely thirsty, she drank whatever was fed, and when the hunger and thirst subsided, her nose seemed to breathe a bit more, and she smelled a familiar fragrance, which was cold and light.Without opening her eyes, she also knew who was taking care of her. Therefore, her anxious emotions during the injury and illness were relieved, and her disordered and rapid breathing gradually calmed down.

Paradoxically, when the spoon came close again, she subconsciously gritted her teeth and refused to drink any more.

This is instinct, the instinct of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages that almost all living things possess.There was still chaos in her mind, and many details were suddenly blurred. At this moment, Tang Yi only remembered the juice she drank before she passed out.

Over the past few years, the queen has taken care of her food and daily life in every possible way, and often told her not to eat indiscriminately outside. Today I went to Buerzhai, and the food was also prepared by the chef of Weiyang Palace.Logically speaking, it was the safest place, but the problem happened here. She drank the syrup and became unconscious. At that time, there were no assassins, and she didn't know where the sword wound on her right arm came from.

Perfumer is a talented profession, and practitioners often have the most sensitive sense of smell. Although Tang Yu has changed his body after rebirth, his sense of smell is not as good as in his previous life, but he has the ability to identify flowers, plants and trees that ordinary people do not have.The juice is mixed with a few flavors of strange fragrance, which can make people fall into a deep sleep.After drinking it, she realized something was wrong, but it didn't help.Why did she drink the juice?Because the juice was prepared by Weiyang Palace, and Weiyang Palace was ruled by the queen, she trusted the queen and drank it without any precautions, but did this trust almost put her in danger?

The queen mother actually wanted to harm her?Tang Yu fell asleep, his consciousness was unclear, and almost all his actions were out of instinct.Before the doubts had time to ferment in his heart, he was violently suppressed by the intensifying pain at the wound, and the whole person was completely placed in darkness, unconscious.

On the other side, the anxious Liu Duo was playing against the emperor.As the commander of the pro-guard army, although he did not go in person, he failed in his errands, and he was rarely charged with two charges of "lax governance" and "negligence in duty".How to punish the crime is decided by the emperor, and the emperor's attitude depends on His Royal Highness's injury and Liu Duo's own statement.

Since His Royal Highness's injury is not serious, the key breakthrough lies in how to make a perfect statement of "it is the minister's fault but the main responsibility is not with the minister".Since Liu Duo has Yan's blue eyes and is worthy of being a son-in-law, there must be something special about him, and it's not a bag of wine.In addition, the emperor's dragon body is weak, and now he can only hold on for a while, so he may not be able to deal with him patiently, as long as he clearly reports the ins and outs of the matter, and his words are humble and appropriate.

The emperor sat high on it, and because he had just walked around for a while, he was furious again, and his face was very bad.He pressed his fist to his lips and coughed violently for a moment. Xu Dehai wanted to caress his back, but he waved his hand to stop him. He just stared at the top of Liu Duo's head condescendingly, and listened to him speak in detail: "All the checkpoints related to Buerzhai in the downtown area have been sent away." Soldiers are on guard, and no one is missed. However, there are many capable people and strange people in the market, and it is unknown if there are people who can hide their eyes and ears.

Liu Duo bowed to the ground, and said with deep sorrow: "My negligence and negligence have caused His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince to fall into danger. Ten thousand deaths will not be able to overcome it! I am willing to take responsibility and make atonement for my sins. I hope Your Majesty will agree."

Even if the assassin was captured and brought to justice, it was only to make up for his mistakes, so where did he get the credit?The courtiers were used to tricks, and the emperor was not surprised. He just chuckled lightly, but couldn't tell how to appease his anger: "It's very good that you have this intention. If I miss the chance with you for three days, I will come to see you."

Liu Duo froze in place as if struck by lightning, not even knowing when the emperor would move away.When he woke up, he was sweating profusely, his legs were weak and he had to sit slumped, his mind went blank, and the next moment, he touched the head on his neck in panic, knowing that it was all right, and finally put his mind at ease. Come.Not daring to slack off for a moment, he hastily left the palace to look for the members of the Yan family. He already had some clues—the soldiers were guarding the outside, and there were only Tang Yu, Yu Sheng, and Shang Zan in Bu'er Zhai. Slightly injured, no property was damaged, the assassin escaped, neither seeking wealth nor killing life, with such kung fu, if you want to be famous in the world, it is better to assassinate the emperor sooner.

Liu Duo felt that this act was probably a plan to set blame, and the person behind it must be Xiao Dang. If he fell into the trap, he only needs to wait for a few impeachment memorials to be submitted to the imperial case. host!Investigating the case or something, naturally put it aside first, there are a lot of homeless refugees in the ruined temples in the suburbs of Beijing, just find one, and just go up to it.

Shang Zan regarded himself as a hermit, and was trapped by his official position and could not enter the mountains, forests, plums, wives, and cranes. The compromise method was to build a small courtyard in the middle of the city, untie his clothes, entertain himself with flowers and plants while drinking wine in the wind.Hiding in the forest, hiding in the city, and hiding in the court, although only the location is different, the difference is huge.For example, at present, Bu Er Zhai, one of the seven scenic spots in Yanjing, is full of people. Colleagues and friends greet each other with gifts, and see if the old man who was frightened by the assassination is well.Shang Zan has an eccentric personality and doesn't like to hire servants, but the huge Bu Er Zhai needs someone to take care of him. When he was young, he could still do it by himself, but as he got older, he couldn't do what he wanted, so he hired an old servant to act as a housekeeper.

At this moment, the old servant greeted the Lord on behalf of the Lord, and only received greetings, and no gifts were accepted, even the gifts of the emperor and empress.Shang Zan is an old man who is used to laxity. When others give gifts, he needs to return gifts in the future. Once a gift is received, it needs to be recorded in the record. There is something to check when the gift is returned. A single dog with a specialization in art, he can't do it and finds it troublesome, so he simply abandons it.

It wasn't until sunset that human feelings slowly passed away, and the narrow alleys gradually became silent. The old servant was tired and tired, so he closed the door and bolted it.He walked slowly to the kitchen to prepare dinner, and when he was collecting firewood, he glanced out and thought, Xiang Xiang stayed for a long time today, do you want to stay for dinner?

In the room, Shang Zan and Xiao Shen sat across the table, he shook the back of his gauze-wrapped hand to Xiao Shen, and said with a wry smile: "Xiao Xiang, Xiao Xiang, I borrowed a carrier pigeon, and it caused a bloody disaster. If I get twice the result with half the effort, I will be angry I'm so angry." Shang Zan just teased, he has been tinkering with flowers and plants all year round, fighting viciously with pests that damage roots and leaves, his skin is rough and his flesh is thick.Xiao Shen obviously didn't take it seriously, he just stroked his beard and laughed loudly: "Speaking of the carrier pigeon, I forgot to tell you——Yuan Kang received the letter and saw that the pigeon was plump and fat, so he kept it for stewing soup. Later, he heard that the carrier pigeon came from a different place. Erzhai, deeply regretful, collected his ribs and feathers, buried him in the courtyard, and set up a wooden plaque, euphemistically called "Fuer Pigeon". Waiting for the future, Brother Shiquan will travel to Yongzhou and go to pay his respects! Hahahaha—"

Hearing this, Shang Zan was not angry but happy, and he felt a little bit of sympathy with this strange man who had never met before, and secretly put the tomb of Bu Er Pigeon in Yongzhou on his travel wish list, and wanted to exchange food for the pigeons he raised Weight loss meal.He thought about it, did not forget the important thing, and said seriously: "Yan Dang should have planned to protect himself and fight back, what is Xiao Xiang's plan?"

Xiao Shen squinted his eyes and smiled, mysteriously said: "He planned it himself, and the impeachment memorial will be accumulated for several feet tomorrow, making him sure that we only want to bring Liu Duo down." Do you think Xiao Shen is stupid?With Yan's ability, kicking away one Liu Duo, there are tens of thousands of Liu Duo, the purpose of the queen and him is elsewhere, what is a mere personal guard?

It was already three o'clock at night, and the candles were brightly lit in the bedroom where Tang Yu lived.

The emperor was sick, fearing mutual infection, so it was inconvenient to stay for a long time. After returning, he sent someone to bring nourishing medicinal materials and snow muscle cream to fade away scars.Concubine Zhong and Tang Dai also came to visit in person, and later, the mansion of King Yan also prepared medicinal materials to strengthen the foundation and cultivate the essence, and chatted with his cousin.For the rest, the clan relatives and wives all greeted them.

All the people came to give favors, and left after finishing the etiquette. Only the queen waited by the bed non-stop.Tang Yu was still in a coma. When he was in a coma, he was extremely stubborn and clenched his teeth. He couldn't feed soup, medicine or porridge. Occasionally, he would wake up for a while.Taking advantage of this moment of waking up, the person relaxes and can feed a few spoonfuls of soup and porridge. She is talking in her sleep, saying something confused, calling "A Niang" for a while, and "Queen Mother" for a while, no matter what, in the dream They are all queens, but the dream is probably not good.

The dew is deeper and the weather is a bit colder.There was half a cup of decoction left, the queen took a spoonful, took a sip, and handed it to Lian Dong: "Take it and heat it up."

Liandong took the porcelain bowl, but didn't move, hesitated for a moment, and persuaded in a low voice: "Your Highness, the servant is guarding, you go and rest." The queen said nothing, only looked at the sleeping child who was frowning, and got up again , took a warm towel from the copper basin, and wiped the wet tears from the corners of her eyes with such gentle force that water almost flowed from between her fingers.

Seeing this, Liandong knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he could only leave as he said.When she walked to the door, the queen suddenly stopped her: "Mr. Shang and Mr. Yu, have you sent someone to see it?" Yu Sheng works in the imperial hospital and is a medical officer. Only in private, the queen calls her Asheng.

The queen is the lord of the middle palace, and she has never neglected human etiquette, but today's situation is unprecedented.Liandong stopped, turned around and replied respectfully: "The two places have sent palace officials to visit, and the etiquette is also considerate. Your Highness can rest assured."

The queen nodded, and Lian Dong stepped back, and after a short while, warm soup was served again.The queen held it in her hands and ordered her to rest by herself, extinguished several copper lamps, and placed the remaining one beside the bed, with the light source close to it, completely reflecting the blackness of the queen's eyes.Liandong saw that her tiredness could not be concealed under her exquisite face, but she was still holding on, and she couldn't help but persuaded again: "Your Highness, the servants are here to guard, if your little Highness wakes up, you will have to drink water or eat. You stay up all night, I was haggard the next day, my little Highness is filial, and I will definitely feel guilty when I see you."

Liandong was also familiar with the queen's temperament, knowing that she didn't care about her body, she moved Tang Yu out, and understood her with emotion and reason.

The queen smiled lightly, and stroked the child's soft temples with her fingers: "She wakes up, neither looking for drink nor food, she calls for mother, what should you do? You can go down, I'm fine. "

Crying for mother, ten honeysuckles are no match for the queen alone, so honeysuckle has no choice but to resign.

Tang Xi didn't know how long he had been asleep. He seemed to have woken up several times in a trance, but his consciousness was still vague, and he couldn't even tell whether the queen in front of him was illusion or reality.The rising sun and the long moon rise and fall alternately, and the passage of time makes the boundary between dream and reality more and more chaotic.

She was trapped inside, her limbs were as heavy as iron, and it was difficult to move an inch, every step was like wading through mountains and rivers.Suddenly, she walked to a place, ten steps away, Yan Xun and the empress seemed to be having a secret conversation, and also seemed to be arguing, Yan Xun was aggressive, with fierce eyes, and the empress would not give in, her aura was fierce and decisive.When there was a stalemate, Yan Xun angrily pointed at one place, probably wanting to threaten him with something, and the place he pointed coincided with where Tang Yu was standing.

Tang Yu looked around, and she was indeed the only one.The queen also looked over. She looked at Tang Yu, the coldness in her eyes was subdued by gentleness, and her aura was at a disadvantage.The next moment, Yan Xun laughed treacherously, handed the dagger to the queen, the queen took it, the dagger was pressed to the waist, the cold blade sank inch by inch, the dark red blood oozed drop by drop, and a pool of blood gradually accumulated on the ground .

Tang Yu was very anxious, her eyes were red and bloodshot, she struggled to move forward, but it was always in vain, as if her limbs were bound tightly by someone, and she was fixed in place.She watched the queen fall down, lying in the pool of blood, looking at her, then lightly closed her eyes, the culprit Yan Xun waved his sleeves away, and the laughter of his successful plot echoed in the world.The sharp and ear-piercing laughter caused several trapped beasts in Tang Yu's heart to grab the ground with their heads and collide with all their might, taking her a few steps away.

She hurried over and knelt down on the ground, the queen's body was as cold as a dead thing.From now on, there will be no one who regards herself as a treasure, no one who will stand up in the snowy night just to wait for her to return from afar, no one who will gently rub her soft hair and hold her in his arms, Whisper in her ears.Is it a dream, or reality?Tang Yu couldn't tell the difference, she was trapped in a nightmare, struggling, crying, whining like a little beast left alone, arousing love and affection.

The queen was sitting beside the bed. She had been sitting quietly for a day and a night without feeling sleepy.Seeing her like this now, she knew she was having a nightmare again, the queen held her little hand tightly, and bent down, wanting to comfort her.Unexpectedly, Tang Yu suddenly opened her eyes, her slender eyelashes were dotted with crystal teardrops, and her eyes were filled with hot tears. With the movement of opening her eyes, the hot tears lingered inside and never fell. The surrounding furnishings, when she gradually realized where she was, she hurriedly set her eyes on the queen. She looked at the queen, her eyes flickered a few times in disbelief, and hot tears fell down, hanging on the bed that was flushed red due to the long-term low-grade fever. on the face.

"...Ah...Auntie?" Tang Yu asked in a trembling and hoarse voice.She stared at the queen closely, if the queen suddenly disappeared, she would only regard it as a dream—as before, it must be just a dream, she would sleep again, having thousands of dreams, until she found If she can't find the exit to reality, she will let herself be trapped in a dream, and stay with her mother day and night, never waking up.

The queen stretched out a hand, wiped her tears, and said with a light smile: "Well, it's good to wake up." She was extremely happy in her heart, but she was also guilty. Nothing more than a frown and a smile.The assassination of Buerzhai was planned by her and Xiao Shen, where and how the wound was injured, how deep and how long the wound was, all of which were pre-determined.Tang Yu suffered minor injuries, but her body was weak, and even this minor injury seemed to hurt Ben Yuan. She had a low-grade fever and kept talking in her dreams. The queen watched and worried all night, but fortunately, nothing happened now.

Soon, the empress discovered that the child's tears could not be wiped away. After wiping and falling, it seemed that the emotions accumulated for a long time burst out suddenly, like a mountain torrent.The queen didn't wipe her tears anymore, she just watched her cry quietly, the palace servant went to fetch water and brought a towel, the queen held it in her hand, and was about to wipe the face of the colorful cat.The painted-faced cat was lying on the bed, rubbing her eyes with the back of her hands, and tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes. She choked up and said, "Mother, can you hug me..." Hug me and make me sure that the dagger and the pool of blood are really a dream.

No matter how unreasonable the child's request is, the parents will only agree and never refuse.The Queen's hand holding the towel paused, then handed it over to the palace servants, avoiding her wounds, gently hugging her into her arms, and said in a warm voice: "I had a nightmare all night, I never cried like this, the dream What did you see?"

Tang Xi snuggled into the warm and warm arms of the queen, and the real sense of touch made her turbulent mind really calm down, and the cold and indifferent fragrance lingered in her nose.The queen guarded her all night, only to find out that she had a night of nightmares. In the past few years, when she was sick, the queen was also guarding her. If she wanted to harm her, there were opportunities everywhere, so why go around?A mere strange fragrance is not fatal.The day before yesterday, before my cousin left, she told her to "be filial to your aunt, no matter when", this sentence meant something, did it refer to this matter?

She was thinking about something, her sobbing stopped, and she looked up at the queen again, who looked down at her, still waiting for her to answer.Tang Yu didn't know how to state the dream, and she didn't want to mention the word "death" again, for fear it would become a prophecy.The tears stopped at first, but after thinking about the dream, the sour feeling surged up again, Tang Yu buried his head, put his arms around the queen's waist, and sobbed: "I dreamed that you don't want me anymore..."

She was talking, crying, rubbing her little head up and down, left and right, and the tears that gushed out instantly soaked the Queen's clothes.The queen was helpless and distressed, she gently stroked the child's back, she sobbed, and her back trembled, the queen comforted: "Nanke has a dream, Huaxu has a dream - and so on, I have told you many times, dreams are not real You know it’s a dream, so why believe it? Besides, why don’t I want you? It’s always been the case that only children grow up, get married and start a business and leave their parents. There is no reason for parents to abandon their children.”

Tang Yu shook his head again and again: "My son will never leave his mother, never will." I will never leave you, will be filial to you, and will trust you, forever.

The queen was slightly startled, and then said seriously: "'Forever' has no fixed date, so don't make promises like this."

Hearing the words, Tang Yan became more serious, with faint signs of making an oath. She raised her head and looked at the queen with wet eyes: "As soon as the son is alive, he will accompany the queen mother for a day." She was very serious, but the queen felt a little melancholy .The child trusts her, relies on her, and is filial to her, but she has involved her in many conspiracies from the very beginning, and even designed to put her in danger. If she finds out in the future, she must hate her, so why should she be with her?

The two cuddled tightly without saying a word.After a while, Tang Yu suddenly called out: "Mother's Queen." She stopped crying, but she had a nasal voice, which sounded extraordinarily soft and glutinous, like a Yuanxiao dumpling, with a ruddy face, probably made of red bean stuffing.

The queen answered.Tang Yu giggled a few times, and called again: "Aniang." The queen answered again.Tang Yan nestled in the queen's arms, smiling so that his cheeks were dimpled, and then, without stopping, he called "mother queen" and "aunt" in turn. When the queen answered her, she would smile, and if she didn't, she would be so delicate. He pestered the queen all the time to respond to her, and was completely proud of his illness.

The queen was also a child when she was a child, so how could she not know this trick, it is about a sudden emptiness in her heart, calling someone, and when someone answers, the feeling of loneliness will subside a lot—it also needs to be a very close person.She knew this trick, but she couldn't bear to talk about her, and played with her tirelessly. For a moment, the bedroom was filled with Tang Yu's sweet and sticky "mother queen", "aunt" and the queen's helpless and pampering faint "um".

Therefore, when Lian Dong entered the palace, he was very ashamed, and the little highness woke up, and he really didn't look for food or drink, and only asked for his mother.She stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, Prime Minister Yan is waiting in the side hall."

Tang Yu clearly saw that the smile on the corner of the queen's mouth stopped instantly, the brows and eyes were still faint, but the air pressure around her body suddenly became much colder.She didn't say much, and told the wet nurse a few words to let her take care of His Highness the Seventh Prince, and then left surrounded by the palace people.An idea came to Tang Yu's mind. Her father always wanted to visit her because of her illness. Why not make a small request to her father by taking advantage of her illness, not to let Yan Xun go in and out of the middle palace at will. It's a foreign relative, and this move is inappropriate. Most importantly, when he comes, the queen mother will be unhappy.

It's just that she needs to organize her words, and she can't raise it hastily, otherwise she will leave a bad impression of not knowing etiquette.

Tang Yu pondered, on the other side, the empress had already met with Yan Xun——she was still a member of the palace, very secretive.

Yan Xun didn't know if it was because of the arrival of his nemesis Yu Sheng that everything was not going well for him recently, and Yan Dang only gained the upper hand over "King Yan" once, and this advantage was not stable.This morning, the impeachment of Liu Duo was submitted one after another to the imperial case. He thought that the means of the Xiao party were nothing more than that, so he laid a trench last night-picked one member of the Xiao party to impeach him, and he occupied an important position in the upper straight guard. It's also a place where prodigal sons like Shangzhiwei gather, how can it be white and flawless?

What Yan Xun had in mind was that if he wins, he will lose, and if he loses, he will have to fight to the death before giving up!

Unexpectedly, he miscalculated.Among the memorials that have been accumulated for several feet, there is a letter drafted by Wang Boyuan, Minister of the Ministry of Officials.Only this letter didn't mention Liu Duo at all, like a spot of green among thousands of flowers, it immediately stood out in front of the emperor's eyes, just now, Jinshen Palace has ordered to summon Wang Boyuan, presumably, it must be for this matter.

The Yiluan Division was created by Sejong, and there was a Luanyi Guard under it. Because it was a female army, it had more troops than the male army, with a total of 2 horses, which was twice the size of the current guards under Liu Duo's command!

Wang Boyuan was in charge of the Ministry of Officials, and he was dissatisfied with the many policies that benefited women created during the reign of King Sejong. It must have been instigated by Prime Minister Xiao, and the many memorials to impeach Liu Duo were just blindfolds.The more Yan Xun thought about it, the more he was wrong, as if he was being led into a trap by someone. Something happened to Buerzhai, and in just one night, Wang Boyuan planned to write the memorial. It can be freely played, the memorial needs to be well-founded, and it needs time to plan. From the beginning to the end, it is a trap!

Yan Xun took a step forward and forced the queen into a corner. He was about to burst into tears, and shouted angrily: "When did you secretly collude with Xiao Shen? Tell me!"
