Chapter 232: Facing Wu Yan's questioning

In the early morning, a thin autumn rain fell on the imperial capital.

Yaoling, who had slept peacefully all night, didn't know what happened last night, and she didn't find any trace of the wind and moonlight when she went around the front and back yards, so she immediately turned around and walked towards the small courtyard where Wu Yu lived.

She wanted to ask about Wu's mother, she had been back for a few days, and she was free today.

In the autumn rain, she held a red oil paper umbrella and walked slowly on the path of the courtyard, listening to the ethereal sound of the autumn rain ticking, and the appearance of the old woman with a slightly yellow face flashed in her mind.

Thinking that she looked at her eyes full of warmth and love, and the tears that were dodging behind the eyes, her heart ached slightly.

"Mother Wu, where have you been, why don't you wait for me to come back?" he sighed secretly, his mood was as sad and clear as the autumn rain outside the umbrella.

"Something?" Suddenly, a faint question came from the side, and when he turned his head, he saw Feng Ze, who was dressed in blue and white brocade clothes, holding a blue oil-paper umbrella, and looked at her quietly with warm eyes, and his expression was as gentle and peaceful as ever.

Seeing Feng Ze, Yao Ling smiled at him shallowly and shook his head.

"Are you going to see Wu Yu?" she asked.

"Yes. Feng Ze replied, looking at her with a search in his eyes.

"Think about Mother Wu again, huh?" he asked again.

Yaoling was a little surprised, "How do you know?"

Feng Ze smiled gently, "Wu Yu said that Mother Wu is gone, you will be sad." He said softly.

Yaoling's expression darkened.

"Mother Wu must have her reasons for leaving, and maybe there are some things she can't face. At least you can't tell outsiders, even if she treats you as her daughter in her heart, the more she is like this, the more sad she is, and the more she needs to bear it. All you can do is go with the flow. Presumably, she is such an old man, who has lived in the imperial capital for a long time, she will not be far from the palace, you can't see her, but she will be able to watch you silently in a place where you can see you, pray for you and bless you. "The sorrow of the autumn rain is the soft and soft words of the wind.

A tear rolled down Yaoling's eyes. Raising her hand, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. She remembered her mother. I don't know if my mother is also like Wu's mother, who is deeply guilty and sad for her lost daughter.

Turning around, she returned to the way she had come.

"Tell Uncle SΓΉ, I'll go see him tomorrow. "The back under the umbrella is slender and delicate.

"Little master, you can come back, someone from the palace said that you were asked to enter the palace to see a doctor for the queen's mother. "As soon as I entered the courtyard gate. A pale blue grass greeted him and reported it.

Xiumei's brows were slightly twisted together.

"Hmm. Prepare the carriage. I'll go into the palace now. ”

"Niangniang, Princess Rongyu is here. Queen Wu Yan was at the wide table, drawing a painting of flowers and birds. The colors are gorgeous and rich.

"Let her in. After listening to Gong'e's briefing, she never raised her head to order.

In the jingling bells, there was a little damp Yaoling, dressed in a pink skirt, white brocade pants, and a pair of red deerskin boots.

When she walked in front of Wu Yan, it was a lady's owe.

"No courtesy," Wu Yan said before she could bend down.

"Rong Yu, can you come and see what I painted?" she picked up the pen and looked at her own painting intently. said to Yaoling very kindly.

Yaoling stepped forward to look at the painting, the flowers and plants in the painting were gorgeous and charming, and the painting was exquisite, which made Yaoling a little surprised.

"Niangniang" wanted to say something of praise, but before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Wu Yan: "When the palace was not married, the name of the painting was spread above the court, and it was because of this that the emperor chose to marry the current saint." Putting away the pen, she glanced at Yaoling and said a little arrogantly.

"I heard that you mentioned marriage to the emperor on behalf of Jiang Liguo?" After a change of words, she asked Yaoling straight to the point about marriage.

Yaoling was slightly stunned, and then reacted: "Yes, Jiang Li is a small country and wants to marry Dalong, but there is only one princess in the Dalong royal family, so she can only retreat." She replied, seemingly nonchalantly.

"Heh, so you still don't like Min'er very much?" Wu Yan's demeanor had a little contempt, which made Yaoling very uncomfortable.

She pursed her lips and smiled lightly: "If compared with the royal princess, Qin Min's status is a little worse, but the emperor agreed, and when Jiang Li's ambassador arrived, he would give Qin Min the title of a princess, and let her marry Jiang Li instead of Princess Dalong." When she said this, she looked a little happy, "The emperor still values the marriage between DΓ  Long and Jiang Li." ”

Obviously, Wu Yan didn't expect that Yaoling and the emperor would have such an agreement, and the expression on her face was obviously stunned for a moment, and then there was a faint anger and jealousy on the delicate face.

After a while, she said, "Don't you know that Min'er is the concubine selected by the palace for He'er?"

Yaoling opened her mouth slightly with a look of surprise,

"Niangniang, I remember that you said that Miss Qin is the future Princess Ping, but I haven't seen the emperor's decree to marry for so long, presumably the princess Ping in the emperor's heart should be someone else, so I dared to mention the marriage to the emperor, and the emperor agreed, it seems that my guess is right." ”

Her straightforward appearance made Wu Yan's teeth itch with hatred in her heart.

Yun'er behind Wu Yan pinched Wu Yan's shoulder, and a trace of streamer flashed in her eyes, and it happened that that streamer was seen in Yaoling's eyes.

A trace of doubt quietly rose from the bottom of my heart.

"Niangniang, let me give you a pulse again, I see that your face is gloomy and dull, and you must have something to worry about in your heart, so if you continue like this, it will cause your old disease, and it will be difficult to cure it. Turning her eyes to look at Wu Yan, she looked very concerned.

"That's it, Hongu's body is very good, so you don't need to look at it. Wu Yan got up and flicked her sleeves and walked to the couch behind the curtain.

Then Yaoling retired. Yaoling looked at Wu Yan's back and was a little helpless, she really wanted to take the pulse for Wu Yan and improve from Wu Yan. She could already see that her old illness had flares up again, and it was far more severe than before.

In her heart, she also knew the reason why Wu Yan was angry, she would rather Qin Min marry her brother than marry Feng He. At least his brother Rong Jianghai didn't have a problem beating women. Although he didn't like Qin Min in his heart, he didn't want her to fall into the clutches of Wind River.

After Yaoling left, Wu Yan suddenly tore off the painting of the lady she had just drawn, "Swing, this palace is going to meet the saint." ”

In the imperial study, she said to Feng Qing with an annoyed face: "Why did Your Majesty marry Qin Min to Jiang Li, the concubine once begged His Majesty to give Min'er to He'er as his concubine, does it mean that He'er doesn't have the same status as Jiang Li's princess in His Majesty's heart?"

Feng Qing glanced at Wu Yan coldly. "Is this how the Empress talks to me?" said in a cold and majestic tone.

Wu Yan paused. I had no choice but to bow and salute: "The concubine has seen His Majesty." ”

Feng Qing snorted with her nose, and then said coldly: "Taifu Qin is unwilling to marry his daughter to Fenghe, do you want me to marry forcibly?"

"But Your Majesty, don't all the women in this world have to be selected by the royal family first? Aren't you afraid that the other ministers in the court will criticize?" said the angry Wu Yan without hesitation.

"Queen, do you want to participate in politics?"

Wu Yan, who was bluffed with a low and majestic angry shout, hurriedly knelt down.

"The concubine didn't dare. ”

glanced at Wu Yan who was kneeling on the ground. A wisp of disgust slipped through Feng Qing's eyes.

"Hmph. I know your thoughts, marrying that Qin Min is nothing more than valuing her father and brother. He'er is the eldest son of the royal family, and his heart is gloomy and fickle, lacking in eloquence. If you are in charge of the world of the great dragon, it is inevitable to be rash. Miss Qinfu is arrogant and loves Yuening, even if she marries He'er, it will definitely cause unnecessary trouble, and when the time comes, the court will be turbulent, can the queen be sure that He'er has the ability to control the chaotic situation?"

Wu Yan, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly raised her eyes to look at Feng Qing, and the expression on her face was indescribably complicated. She understood what Feng Qing meant. After a while, she asked weakly, "Then when will Your Majesty give He'er a marriage?"

"Get up. Feng Qing commanded coldly, and watched Wu Yan get up before he continued: "He'er is uncertain, and he must first sharpen his anger." In the future, I will find a gentle, courteous and comforting woman for him to be his princess. ”

When these words came out, Wu Yan's heart seemed to have a thousand rays of light, and the corners of his eyebrows and lips instantly smiled.

"That's fine. ”

Feng Qing glanced at him coldly, "Sue SΓΉ He'er, think about it behind closed doors, he is the eldest son of my Dalong royal family, you must have a good example, you are not afraid of doing wrong things, you are afraid that you will not know how to repent." ”

"The concubine knows, and the concubine will go and say. Because of her excitement, Wu Yan's voice was much lighter.

"Okay, let's go down, don't spread what I said. ”

"The concubine knows. Wu Yan agreed, stretched out her hand and let Yun'er on the side help her and was about to walk out of the door.

"Wait" At this moment, Feng Qing stopped her again.

raised his eyes and looked at Yun'er, who was supporting Wu Yan on the side, and a light like an eagle's eye flashed in his eyes, and Yun'er felt a trace of fear.

"Your name is Yun'er?"

"Yes," Yun'er replied in a low voice.

"Can you hear what you just said?" the cold and unwarm words made Yun'er's retreat tremble.

The slave and maid heard nothing. She hurriedly knelt down and answered the amorous question in a trembling voice.

Feng Qing's bottomless eyes flashed with a bright and extinguished light.

"Bring my words to He'er, and let him think about how he has dealt with the strife and mutation in the court. ”

Yun'er was frightened for a while, she didn't know how to respond to the question of the supreme emperor in front of her.

Even Wu Yan on the side had fear on her face.

Feng Qing looked at Yun'er kneeling on the ground silently, the invisible coercion of the emperor made Yun'er breathless, and her delicate body trembled.

"Get up, there is a lack of self-management in the river, you go. After a while, Feng Qing said coldly.

Wu Yan was stunned for a word, and Yun'er was also in disbelief.

"Emperor" Wu Yan wanted to say something, but he didn't say it.

"Go, there is no shortage of competent maids in the queen's place, and you will be in charge of the Pingwang Mansion from now on. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty," for some reason, Yun'er's eyes couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Stand down. ”

Feng Qing waved his hand a little tiredly. (To be continued......)
