On both sides of the pebble road outside the Kuntai Palace, peach trees are densely covered. Jing Yan wore a lilac long dress, wrapped around her delicate and slender figure, thinly powdered, green silk, and only two purple jade earrings were decorated on her ears.

In March, peach branches sprout. It won't take long for the peach blossom season to arrive, and this road will be paved into a sea of peach flowers. The peach is dying, scorching its glory. When the flowers bloom, where will that person be?

"The dynasty is looking forward to the immortal Gu, and the peach blossoms are smiling every day...... Spring comes in March, and the incense is sent, and it is the flower slave who asks Jun An......" Jing Yan muttered in a low voice, a touch of loneliness biting her heart, and there was a slight tingling pain.

Why is this palace so big? It's empty.

Jing Yan's plain white fingertips touched the buds on the peach branches, and there would never be a childish voice asking her expectantly: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law!" When will I be able to eat peaches? ”

She couldn't hold back her smile any longer, stroked the little man's hair, and told her, "The peaches on this tree are green and astringent, and they can't be eaten." Do you want to eat peaches? ”

The little man smiled and crooked, pulled her hand, and said happily: "Worry-free wants to eat big peaches!" Sister-in-law and worry-free go to eat big peaches together! ”

A gentle smile spread on Jing Yan's lips, "Okay, go eat big peaches!" ”

Bingbi was close and secretly surprised: Why did the Queen Mother suddenly come up with such a sentence?

After thinking about it, Bingbi was also gloomy, she knew that the Queen Mother was missing Her Majesty.

"Master, the wind is strong, ......" For the queen mother's phoenix body, Bingbi had to interrupt the queen mother's thoughts.

Jing Yan came back to his senses, suddenly felt lost, and said lonely: "Let's go." ”

Bingbi and Shimo glanced at each other, and they could see clearly the affairs of the Queen Mother and Her Majesty. They couldn't care about the master's affairs, but in their hearts, the two of them also felt sorry for Jing Yan, and they still looked forward to having someone to accompany her. There are still decades to live in a lifetime, how can a lonely person go on?

The Empress Dowager's guard of honor stopped outside the Shoukang Palace.

Yes, Jing Yan is here to see the Empress Dowager today. More than just to meet, but also to do a big thing.

The so-called "grounding" before the Empress Dowager has been in vain since the emperor personally conquered it. Jing Yan ran out of Kuntai Palace in a trance, Shen Quan, Bingbi, and Shimo chased them out, and later recalled, only to realize that no one stopped them. Until today, no one in the Shoukang Palace has ever appeared in the Kuntai Palace, and it is difficult to even see half a figure in the ordinary place, but it seems that the Empress Dowager has grounded herself in the Shoukang Palace.

Jing Yan knew that this was inseparable from Yuwen Rui, especially when she heard Shi Ran say that the emperor met the empress dowager before leaving, and the empress dowager smashed her forehead with a tea cup, obviously the emperor said something to the empress dowager that made her old man angry.

What can make the queen mother angry? Zuo is just worry-free and frankly confessed his affection for himself, as well as auspicious things.

Jing Yan asked Shi Ran carefully, and was slightly relieved to learn that Yu Wenrui was only suffering from skin trauma.

Ay! Old wounds have not healed, and new wounds have been added. When will this little enemy not hurt himself and be injured?

She went out with her wounds, bumpy all the way, poor diet in the army, and no one around her to take care of her, the wound will not worsen, right?

See, this man has this ability, and he can always make her worry about it, not for this or that.

After thinking about it, the attendant of Shoukang Palace had already turned back. Along with it, there is also a jade bi.

"The Queen Mother has been waiting for a long time;." Yubi gave a salute first.

"There's Aunt Law." Compared with Yujue, Jing Yan still has a good impression of Yubi. She stood where she was, owing herself.

Yubi said with a smile: "I'm afraid the Queen Mother will run for nothing." The Empress Dowager said that she was not in good health and didn't want to see anyone. Please go back to the Queen Mother. ”

The Empress Dowager's closed-door soup was within Jing Yan's expectations. If she flinched like that, it wouldn't be her.

"Please ask my aunt to tell the queen mother, and say that Jing Yan has something important to discuss with the queen mother."

Yubi was puzzled: "The Queen Mother knows the Queen Mother's temperament...... You still don't have to be a slave. ”

Jing Yan smiled lightly: "As long as my aunt says four words to the queen mother, the queen mother will definitely meet the mourning family." Perhaps, I will reward my aunt! ”

Seeing Yubi's confused face, Jing Yan leaned closer, opened her lips lightly, and spit out four words: "It's about Ruyi." ”

Yubi went away in disbelief, and the smile on Jing Yan's face disappeared.

She raised her head and stared at the three words "Shoukang Palace" on the plaque, the glyph was soft and deep, like a mother's gaze, staring at the huge forbidden palace. Here, since the time of the previous dynasty, it has been the place where the sons of heaven have adopted their mothers and demonstrated filial piety. Now, it is her mother-in-law and her aunt who live inside. And she wants to do something that is contrary to filial piety.

Sure enough, this time, Yubi almost trotted back, and when she saw Jing Yan, she couldn't wait to say, "Queen Mother, please!" ”

Jing Yan chuckled. She knew that as long as the queen mother heard those four words, she must be even more impatient than Aunt Yubi at the moment.

"I've seen the Queen Mother! Mother Wan'an! Jing Yan bowed down meticulously and made a big salute.

But the Empress Dowager sat on top and did not speak, let alone let her get up and excuse herself.

Jing Yan seemed to be unconscious, as if he had entered a no-man's land, and after saluting by himself, he still knelt on his knees, raising his eyes to the face of the Empress Dowager Tieqing, "The queen mother is sick, and the child is late, and she is guilty." ”

The Empress Dowager sat cross-legged on the Luohan couch, staring at Jing Yan with a pair of phoenix eyes, eager to pierce two holes in her body.

After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Good means!" ”

Jing Yan was unnatural for a moment, pursed his lips, and immediately returned to calm.

The attendants on both sides have already smelled the smell of the mountain rain coming and the wind filling the building. Yu Jue obediently blessed the two who were sitting and kneeling, led everyone to retreat, and covered the door outside.

Jing Yan looked at the Empress Dowager calmly and said lightly: "The Empress Dowager is too famous. The child did not have any outstanding means, but he was bent on how to keep the inheritance of his ancestors and ancestors, and he did not dare to slack off in the slightest. ”

"What a 'mind to think'!" The Empress Dowager said hatefully, "You work hard! ”

"The child doesn't dare to call it hard, for the sake of the Great Zhou, even if he is tired to death, the child is also willing."

"For the Great Zhou Dynasty? It's for your selfishness! The Empress Dowager couldn't help but scold.

"No," Jing Yan shook his head slightly, "The child is for the queen mother......"

As she spoke, she raised her head slowly, her eyes glued to the empress dowager's haggard and sick face, and she said word by word: "In order to fulfill the affection of the queen mother for the deceased." ”

The Empress Dowager trembled her missing blood-colored lips, "She...... Is it still alive? You...... What are you going to do to her?! ”

Jing Yan felt a pain in his heart, was silent for a moment, his heart was horizontal, and he kowtowed: "It's not what the child wants to do, but what the queen mother does." ”

The Empress Dowager was stunned for a moment, and laughed angrily, "Okay! All right! Jing's, the mourning family really can't imagine that your mind is so vicious! What do you want to do with her life and threaten the mourning family? ”

When Jing Yan heard this, his nasal cavity was sour. She shrugged her nose lightly, forcibly suppressed the surging sense of grievance, and lowered her head slightly, not letting the Empress Dowager see her hot and sour eyes, "How dare the child threaten the queen mother?" ”

"Huh? Don't you dare? So what are you doing at the moment? The Zhe'er of the mourning family is destroyed in your hands, and the Arrow of the mourning family is also trapped in your confinement...... It's been more than ten years, and your mind can't be hidden after all? Go ahead! Is it an eyesore for the mourning family? Do you want Da Zhou to have the surname Jing? ”

Jing Yan's tears burst out of his eyes. Yes, more than ten years. It's been more than ten years, and the queen mother doesn't believe in her sincerity!

"It has been three years out of ten for the child to marry into the heavenly family. Whether the queen mother believes it or not, from the day she became the daughter-in-law of the Yuwen family, all the thoughts and thoughts of the child are based on the Yuwen family and the Great Zhou Jiangshan first. Heaven and earth can be learned! Big tears slammed down on the ground, but no one could tell that she was in tears.

The back of the Empress Dowager sank like water, silently staring at the top of Jing Yan's hair who was kneeling on the ground.

Jing Yan pressed the chaotic feelings, and the conversation changed sharply, straight to the point: "Children don't admire wealth and envy the country, but they only want to have a heart and stay together." Even if you do nothing in your life and only guard that person, it is sweet...... It's a pity that the child is not blessed, and the sky does not allow it. The child sighed helplessly, thinking of the women in the world, the greatest wish is not this, the queen mother...... No exception. ”

When the Empress Dowager first heard her say "children are not blessed", her chest hurt, and when she heard her words, she smiled coldly: "What do you want to exchange her with the mourning family?" ”

Jing Yan was stunned, she didn't expect the Empress Dowager to agree so happily. It seems that the weight of Shi Ruyi in the heart of the queen mother is much heavier than he originally thought. This realization made Jing Yan feel even more uncomfortable. She asked herself that she never disdained coercion, but what was the difference between what she was doing at the moment and coercion?

"The mother's love is deep, and the child is respectful." Jing Yan kowtowed again. The vicissitudes of the sea, time has passed, and the person who is still concerned about it is still the only one in his heart, Jing Yan is sincerely convinced.

The Empress Dowager didn't buy her account: "You don't have to say these nonsense and clichés with the mourners, just say what you want!" ”

"The child needs to be replaced." Jing Yan met the eyes of the Empress Dowager.

In the bright sunlight, there were still tear stains on her cheeks. The Empress Dowager's heart moved, she didn't realize that Jing Yan was crying so badly before, and she suddenly felt uncomfortable. This thought was only fleeting, and the Empress Dowager wondered: "Who? What identity? ”

"The child asks the Empress Dowager to admit that Yu Wentang is the daughter of the first emperor and the county lord of the south of the desert."

"Yu Wentang?" The Empress Dowager's eyes narrowed slightly, bursting with hatred.

"Yes. The child's name is auspicious. ”

"The granddaughter of that is also worthy of the surname Yuwen!" The Empress Dowager was furious.

"That child is the granddaughter of Emperor Renzong after all."

"Huh! Are you with Emperor Tirenzong of the mourning family? The Empress Dowager sneered coldly, "Back then, the mourning family and the cheap maid were called the master and servant, but the mourning family treated her more than her sisters, and she actually had the face to do such a thing behind the mourning family;!" If she hadn't seduced Emperor Renzong, how could she have given birth to that pair of evil seeds! ”

This is the first time Jing Yan has heard about what happened back then. In fact, it was just that Empress Duan favored the harem back then, and her close maids wanted to win wealth and nobility, and Emperor Renzong was also tired of the queen's interpretation flower for a long time, and the two of them hit it off, and it became that thing.

"May I ask the Queen Mother, do you care about Emperor Renzong?" Jing Yan said bluntly.

"Jing, is this what you should ask!"

Jing Yan was not afraid: "What the queen mother is worried about is probably not losing the favor of Emperor Renzong, right?" What the queen mother is afraid of is that Yusu may give birth to Lin'er and shake the position of Zhe's crown prince, right? So the queen mother sent someone to ......"

"Shut up!" The Empress Dowager scolded. I am very afraid that she will reveal the old things, and no one is willing to face the self who once harmed his mother and abandoned his child.

Jing Yan said from the kindness: "The queen mother will stop talking, and the child will stop talking." It's just that it's not what it used to be, and it's impossible for the Kirin Twins to threaten that dragon chair anymore. But after all, Jixiang's body is bleeding with the blood of Emperor Renzong, and the world doesn't know the existence of the Qilin twins, and the queen mother is reluctant to bring up the old things again. Yes, please recognize that auspiciousness is the flesh and blood of the first emperor! Only in this way can auspiciousness be justifiably entered into the genealogy and inherit the Great Zhou Dynasty in the future. ”

"Humph! You're all talking! ”

Jing Yan knew that the "you" referred to by the Empress Dowager were her and Yu Wenrui, so she simply admitted: "It is also the emperor's intention to establish auspiciousness as the heir." ”

The Empress Dowager said coldly: "She wants to establish an heir, why don't she give birth to herself?" ”

She has always doted on Yu Wenrui, and such a tone has been angry to the extreme.

Jing Yan lowered his eyes and said in a low voice: "Even if the emperor wants to do that, the child will not allow it." ”

The Empress Dowager was slightly stunned. How discerning is her mind? After just a thought, he understood, his face was red and white for a while, and he shook his hand and pointed at Jing Yan angrily, "You, you...... You've ......"

Jing Yan was astringent, kowtowed, and said, "Yes." ”

"You...... Are you worthy of Tetsu'er? ”

Jing Yan was gloomy: "The child knows that she is sorry for her, but ...... But the child must ...... Protect the Emperor! She...... She is in the Spirit of Heaven...... Would be considerate ......"

"Ridiculous! You are ridiculous! The Empress Dowager was furious, and waved the tea set and pen inkstone on the ground.

Jing Yan listened to the chaotic sound of "dang dang dang chang", but she held on and did not move.

"In your eyes, is there still a mourning family? You guys...... What is it to be a mourner! ”

"The queen mother is the master of the harem." Jing Yan said respectfully.

"The master of the harem? Empress Dowager Jing, are you slapping the mourning family's face? The Empress Dowager's chest rose and fell because of anger, "You have such means, what are you doing here to mourn?" You can do whatever you want, and whoever you want to be the queen woman is the queen daughter! ”

Jing Yan was bitter in his heart, but he still said respectfully: "The queen mother is the master of the harem. ”

"You go! The mourners don't want to see you again! The Empress Dowager pointed angrily at the door.

Jing Yan's back was straight, "The queen mother's wish will definitely be fulfilled by the child." ”
