The emperor hugged Concubine Qi's body and shed tears on his back with Yan Yunnuan on his back. Yan Yunnuan is uncomfortable, why do lovers evolve like this, creating and making people. After burying Concubine Qi, the emperor was much older, and sat in the imperial study to correct the folds. Yesterday, he went to the prison to see Uncle Lian Huang, and after learning of Concubine Qi's death, he died in the prison that night. What he pursued all his life was not to give Concubine Qi happiness.

In the end, it was all empty, Concubine Qi was not all for the emperor, even if there was a misunderstanding and estrangement between them, Concubine Qi's heart was always on him. After all, he was one step too late, and now he is staying in the prison, and the life he lives is not what he wants, it is better to die, and it is a hundred. The twists and turns are piled up, the emperor doesn't have the heart to look at it, there are too many things that have happened in the past few days, he needs to take his time, close his eyes and rest.

Hearing what the eunuch said, Yan Yunnuan asked to see her, and immediately opened his eyes and went out to greet her. The only bloodline between him and Concubine Qi is Yan Yunnuan, and the emperor attaches great importance to it. "Nuan'er has seen the emperor's grandfather, long live, long live, long live. "The emperor's grandfather or the emperor asked Yan Yunnuan to shout, Yan Yunnuan knew that he was in a bad mood, and he didn't want to disturb him, but there was no way, Yan Yunnuan was really worried about Mo Linzi. I had to come to the emperor to find out what news came out of his mouth.

"Be polite to the imperial grandfather, get up, let the imperial grandfather see, the warm look is good. The emperor looked at him affectionately, and then asked Yan Yunnuan to sit down and speak. Yan Yunnuan took a few deep breaths, "Grandpa Huang, I know the whereabouts of the eldest prince. The emperor frowned, how could she know. Then Yan Yunnuan told him about the second princess's bedroom that night, and if it wasn't for that night, she went to the cold palace on a whim to see Concubine Qi, Yan Yunnuan probably wouldn't know her life story so quickly.

Concubine Qi hugged Yan Yunnuan and cried bitterly that night, venting the grievances she had suffered in her heart for thirty years, as well as her deep thoughts about Tian. In the end, she reluctantly sent Yan Yunnuan away, telling her not to make a noise for the time being. Yan Yunnuan is not stupid, of course she knows, if she tells her identity, who will believe it? It is up to the emperor to announce her identity to the world.

"This panicked thing, thanks to you, otherwise it would be troublesome to cause discord between the Northern Qi Kingdom and the Eastern Zhou Kingdom. Nuan'er, in this way, you hand him over to the imperial grandfather and let me deal with him, okay?" The emperor spoke to Yan Yunnuan very cordially, and there was no arrogance on the emperor's shelf. Yan Yunnuan nodded: "Well, Grandpa Huang, Nuan'er listens to you, but Nuan'er still has something to ask for." ”

The emperor replied with a smile: "You don't have to be polite with the imperial grandfather, if you have anything to say directly, the imperial grandfather will definitely do it for you." She was very fond of Yan Yunnuan, Yan Yunnuan leaned over obediently: "Nuan'er thanks to the imperial grandfather, in fact, the reason why Nuan'er came to the Northern Qi Kingdom is that I heard that the husband seriously injured the Marquis of Pingyang in the Northern Qi Kingdom, and also took refuge in the Northern Qi Kingdom. "Keep an eye on the emperor, wanting to see his subtle expressions.

"Hahaha, what a joke, Mo Linzi is a good talent, I really want to take him in in the Northern Qi Kingdom, but he doesn't want to, and I don't force it. If I had known earlier that he was my grandson-in-law, I am afraid that I would have used all kinds of means to keep him and not let him leave. "There is no need for the emperor to deceive Yan Yunnuan, so in this way, where did Mo Linzi go?

"So that he is now gone, and I have ordered those who have seen him in the palace to paint his appearance, draw his portrait, and search the whole city, and there will be news soon. You can stay in the palace for the time being, and if you need anything, just tell the palace people, if they don't listen to you, tell me, and I will clean them up. The emperor's eyes were full of tenderness, Yan Yunnuan bid farewell to the emperor and left the imperial study.

Her identity has not yet been announced by the emperor to the Northern Qi State, and there will be an edict in the next two days to canonize her as the Qinghe County Lord of the Northern Qi State. With this layer of identity, after returning to the Eastern Zhou Kingdom, the eldest princess will be afraid. There were also Tian Wen and them who stayed in the inn, and Yan Yunnuan sent someone to send them a letter to inform them that they should stay at the inn for the time being, and they should not take action without her order.

In addition, she told the commander of the Imperial Forest Army where the eldest prince was, and brought it back to the palace to be disposed of by the emperor. The second princess heard that the emperor was very kind to Yan Yunnuan, and when Concubine Qi died, Yan Yunnuan was still wearing linen and filial piety, what was the relationship? At the beginning, she introduced Yan Yunnuan to the emperor, no, she wanted to see Yan Yunnuan. "The concubine body is to say hello to Concubine Li. ”

Yan Yunnuan was stopped by Concubine Li before she could lean over: "Okay, no need to be polite, this palace has something to ask you." Why can you live in the palace, and you are still favored by the emperor. In addition, don't forget, you came to the Northern Qi Kingdom for Mo Linzi, not to enjoy it in the palace. The second princess actually reminded Yan Yunnuan, pursed her lips and smiled: "Thank you Concubine Li for your concern, the concubine understands that she will not forget her original intention." ”

"In that case, then what are you still doing in the palace, could it be that you have some deal with the emperor?" The second princess's eyes flashed slightly, if this was the case, she should pay more attention to Yan Yunnuan, and she couldn't trust her words too much. couldn't tell the second princess everything, Yan Yunnuan quickly perfunctory and sent the second princess away. Before leaving, the second princess asked her to hand over the eldest prince to her, so what can she do.

The eldest prince has been given to the emperor by the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, she can only smile and say: "It's better to stay with me first!" "You, don't forget, if the palace tells the emperor that the eldest prince he has been looking for for so hard is hidden by you, do you think you can stay in the palace?" The second princess gritted her teeth and said, Yan Yunnuan smiled in her eyes: "I'm afraid I don't know about this, why don't you try it?"

"Don't think that this palace doesn't dare, this time for the sake of us all coming from the Eastern Zhou Kingdom, this palace will give you a chance to find Mo Linzi as soon as possible and take this palace away. The second princess completed the agreement with Yan Yunnuan and introduced the emperor for her. "Yes, Concubine Li is waiting for the news of the concubine in the dormitory. If the mother walks slowly, the concubine will not be sent. Looking at the back of the second princess leaving, Yan Yunnuan breathed a sigh of relief and went back to sitting.

As soon as the eldest prince opened his eyes, he found the emperor sitting in front of him, and hurriedly stepped forward: "Father, why is the son here?" Thinking in his mind, he clearly remembered that in Concubine Li's bedroom, he had already ordered someone to arrange everything. Why did he miss and be taken captive, did someone have already planned it and waited for him to drill into it? Did he underestimate Concubine Li, in front of the emperor, the eldest prince did not dare to let out the anger in his belly.

The emperor glanced at him: "Shouldn't you know this best, you asked me what to do, have you forgotten what you did, do you want me to remind you?" No, how could the emperor know, what he did was so hidden, could it be that Concubine Li told the emperor that she really didn't want the peace between the Eastern Zhou Kingdom and the Northern Qi Kingdom, if that was the case, after he succeeded to the throne, he would be the first to take out the anger of the Eastern Zhou Kingdom.

"Father, don't look at your sons like this, how can your sons know?" The eldest prince and the emperor were sloppy, and the emperor slapped the table hard: "Hmph, you don't know, I haven't died yet, and you are worried about the concubines in my harem." If I die, what dare you can't do!"

He is still alive, the eldest prince is still like this, if he is not there one day, and the Northern Qi Kingdom is handed over to such a virtuous person, he will not be at ease under Jiuquan, and he will go to see the ancestors and ancestors without face. The throne must not be passed to him, the emperor has already decided. The eldest prince smiled: "Father, don't listen to Concubine Li's nonsense, she is provoking the relationship between her sons and her father, you are wise and martial, you can't be succeeded by her, and your sons ask your father to find out." ”

When he leaves the palace, he must kill those who know about it, so as to prevent future troubles. The emperor only had Concubine Li's confession alone, and he couldn't cure him. Moreover, he was the only son of the emperor, and he could not bear to punish him. Because of this, the eldest prince dared to act recklessly. "No need, I've already found out clearly, and I can't allow you to quibble. ”

The emperor made a final decision, which made the eldest prince very dissatisfied, and pouted: "Father, you can't listen to the words of the villain, the son is wronged, and I implore the father to make the decision for the son." The mother knows the character of the sons best, and if the father does not believe it, the sons can ask the mother to leave the palace. ”

By the way, the eldest prince still doesn't know the news of Concubine Qi's death, and after hearing what the emperor said, the eldest prince took a few steps back. said again and again: "Impossible, impossible, this is impossible, my father and mother will not die." The mother will live a hundred years, no. "The eldest prince knows the emperor's favor for Concubine Qi, even if she is in the cold palace for more than 30 years, the emperor still has only one woman in his heart.

He once saw the portrait of Concubine Qi in the emperor's bedroom, and with the emperor there, he would not let Concubine Qi have anything to do. Although his mother did not protect her, as long as she was in the day, the emperor would read in her face and would not dispose of him. If Concubine Qi is gone, there is really no guarantee, after all, people go to tea and cool. Looking at the appearance of the eldest prince, the emperor felt ridiculous, and at this time, he was still pretending to be a filial son in front of him.

He had visited Concubine Qi in the cold palace several times and had dinner with her a few times. "Okay, you go back to the house to pack your things, and then you can leave for the fiefdom, and you will not be allowed to enter the palace for life without my order. "The emperor is benevolent to the eldest prince, and this is also for the sake of Concubine Qi. Although he is not his biological son, there is a father-son relationship, and there are some things that he doesn't need to know.

The emperor's words made the eldest prince go to hell completely, and begged bitterly: "Father, don't, don't go back to the fiefdom." You can't do this to Erchen, you just let Erchen deal with Jiangnan's twists and turns, and you have to make Erchen the prince. You can't just let your sons leave, and your mother won't feel at ease under Jiuquan, your father, your sons are wrong, can't your sons change it? ”

The eldest prince climbed in front of the emperor and hugged his leg tightly and pleaded, no, the emperor can't be merciful, if he is merciful, he is not responsible for the people of the Northern Qi State. "It's wrong now, it's too late, okay, don't cry in front of me, hurry back to the fiefdom!" The emperor turned his face away and didn't look at the eldest prince, "Father, the son-in-law begs you, don't do this to the son-in-law, give the son-in-law a chance, even if it's for the sake of the mother, okay?"

There was no choice but to ask the emperor to agree. It's a pity that the emperor was very resolute and called the guards outside the door to come in and take the eldest prince away. The brain hurts badly, and the next thing is to consider the candidate for the prince. The eldest prince returned to the palace and sent out a lot of anger, and the staff were shocked, the eldest prince was the only bloodline of the emperor, and now he was going to be driven to the fiefdom. How can this be done, we have to think of a way to give advice to the eldest prince.

The second princess was pruning the branches and leaves of the peony, and when she heard the news, she was not happy, and the eldest prince could not inherit the throne. Unexpectedly, what Yan Yunnuan said in front of the emperor was very useful, and she should be more careful in the future. The people sent out to find out the news had not yet come to Hu Lai, and they did not know the relationship between the emperor and Yan Yunnuan. Before her people returned, she knew that Yan Yunnuan had been canonized by the emperor as the lord of Qinghe.

After staying in the palace for five days, the emperor didn't give her any news, Yan Yunnuan couldn't sit still, after all, it was important to find Mo Linzi. At this moment, in the imperial study, the Marquis of Pingyang knelt down and begged the emperor: "I want to ask to marry the lord of Qinghe, and ask the emperor to give him a marriage." The emperor frowned, didn't he know Yan Yunnuan's identity, he had already married Mo Linzi. This time, I also came to the Northern Qi Kingdom to find Mo Linzi, and I have to thank him for it. If it weren't for that, he wouldn't be able to let Concubine Qi look away, and find his granddaughter.

Taking advantage of Mo Linzi's disappearance, the Marquis of Pingyang actually came to the palace of the Northern Qi Kingdom to propose to him, and the Marquis of Pingyang did not squeak when he saw the emperor, and then told the emperor that he and Yan Yunnuan had a marriage contract, 1510. "Pingyang Hou, it's not that I don't agree to you, you should know that the county lord of Qinghe is a married woman, it's not that I don't agree to you, I really can't do anything. ”

Yan Yunnuan, who happened to be outside the door, heard it, put his finger to his mouth, "Shhh, don't make a sound, don't tell the emperor, the county lord has come." "Pingyang Hou still doesn't give up, Yan Yunnuan still leaves, it's not good to bump into him. The eunuch knew the emperor's favor for Yan Yunnuan, so naturally he would not sue. The Marquis of Pingyang returned with a feather, and before leaving, he also looked back at the palace of the Northern Qi Kingdom.

He will not sit still so easily, and will always think of a way to make Yan Yunnuan obediently surrender to him. Ye Qing in the inn didn't want to wait any longer, and said to Ye Mei: "Sister, otherwise we will sneak into the palace at night and go to see the second young lady." "Find out what the situation is, why didn't Yan Yunnuan come back, and was canonized as the lord of Qinghe by the emperor of the Northern Qi Kingdom?

Ye Mei glanced at her: "I know you're worried about the second young lady, we're all worried." But you have to remember the instructions of the second young lady and wait for news at the inn. "Everyone is in a hurry, it's just Yan Yunnuan's order, they have to obey. Well, that's all there is to it, but in the evening, she sneaks out. After the Marquis of Pingyang left, Yan Yunnuan went to see the emperor and bid him farewell.

"Nuan'er, can you stay and stay with the imperial grandfather for a long time? The imperial grandfather finally found you, and your imperial grandmother has only passed away for a few days. With pleading in his eyes, Yan Yunnuan was anxious to find Mo Linzi as soon as possible, and seemed to guess what she meant. The Emperor continued: "Grandpa Huang knows that you are desperate to find Mo Linzi, and I have already sent someone to find it, and I believe there will be news soon." You just stay and stay with Grandpa Huang a little longer, okay?"

Looking at an old man in his twilight, Yan Yunnuan could only nod in agreement. After all, the emperor is a little pitiful, and the son he has loved for many years is not his own son. The beloved woman Concubine Qi also died, and Uncle Lian committed suicide in the prison, it was easy to die, but the living were tormented. If it weren't for the worries of the government, I am afraid that the emperor would also go with them.
