"You, kneel down for the mourners!"

Jing Yan stared at the face in front of him, which was three points similar to himself, but obviously had an old posture, and a sense of desolation passed through his heart.

She was mentally prepared, and the Empress Dowager's anger and questioning had long been expected by her, she asked her to kneel, and she knelt.

The Empress Dowager stared at her kneeling and still straightening her back, and the anger in her heart did not subside: How familiar is this scene? Thirteen years later, is history going to repeat itself?

Thinking of the past years, her heart was mixed, and pain and hatred surged up. Over the years, she retired to Shoukang Palace, ignoring political affairs, only occasionally meeting old ministers or clan relatives, reminiscing about the past, and passing the time when she couldn't use up no matter how she used it. She asked herself that she had taken all the past lightly, and even at a certain moment she suddenly felt a sense of being separated from the world, as if that qiē was not something she had personally experienced. I thought it was light and light, but when a similar scene reappeared, the former Empress Dowager Duan was still ...... It's unbearable.

"Queen Mother!" Jing Yan took a few steps forward on his knees and supported the crumbling body of the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager felt dizzy in her head, if it weren't for Jing Yan and Yu Jue's eyes to quickly support her, I am afraid that she would have fallen to the ground. She suddenly woke up, bowed her head slightly, and was surprised that Jing Yan's hand was supporting her, and she was furious: "Let go!" ”

Jing Yan shook his hands, subconsciously withdrew his hands, and hung his head silently.

The Empress Dowager was supported by Yu Jue, sat on a chair nearby, and she waved her hand to order Yu Jue to step back.

Yu Jue was not at ease, and said, "Master, your phoenix body ......"

"The mourning family is not old yet!" The Empress Dowager interrupted her sharply.

Yu Jue, although she was worried about her, she didn't dare to disobey, so she had to bow and retreat, stay outside the hall, and listen carefully to the movements inside, lest the Empress Dowager feel unwell.

Outside the hall, Shi Mo peeked at Yu Jue, his heart was full of anger, but he dared not speak angrily. The Empress Dowager obviously came prepared, but she lived in a simple house, how did she know what was going on outside? It must be the eyes and ears of this one!

She gritted her teeth secretly, hated and worried about the safety of the Queen Mother, and she didn't expect how the Queen Mother would treat the Queen Mother. Now, the only thing that can be counted on in this palace is His Majesty Xià-

Shi Mo was very anxious in his heart. Bingbi has been gone for a long time, why hasn't there been a response?

At this moment, she is not the only one who is full of anxiety?

Outside the Chongyang Palace, Bingbi was so anxious that he paced back and forth in place. The two little chamberlains on duty couldn't help but look at her, but no one dared to let her enter the hall.

The aunt who served the Queen Mother closely, where did they dare to provoke? But Rao was so, and they didn't dare to agree to this aunt's request.

As soon as the emperor got out of the court, he summoned several important ministers to discuss politics in Chongyang Palace, which were all military affairs, and irrelevant people, if they listened to one more sentence, they were afraid that they would lose their heads. What's more, the emperor seems to be very irritable recently, and even the chief manager of Shen Quanshen has just been reprimanded for being a little late for serving tea. They don't dare touch that mold! Allowing the queen mother's maids to grind outside the Chongyang Palace, they already feel that they have a lot to do with it.

"Two little brothers! I beg you to be accommodating, there is really a big matter, and I have to tell Your Majesty! Bingbi couldn't help but beg again.

The two of them were just about to open their mouths and beg her not to embarrass themselves, when the door of the palace opened, and Shen Quan came out of it with a tea tray.

Bingbi seemed to have seen a savior, stepped forward, and grabbed Shen Quan, "Quick!" Go and tell your majesty! ”

Shen Quan was also surprised: "Aunt Bingbi? You ......"

Bingbi didn't have time to be polite with him, so he pushed him back to the hall and lowered his voice in his ear: "Go and report to Your Majesty!" The Empress Dowager suddenly went to Kuntai Palace to be embarrassed to be the Empress Dowager! ”

Shen Quan was stunned, knowing that this matter was not trivial, he did not dare to delay, and returned to the palace without touching the ground.

"It's really a good embroiderer...... "The Empress Dowager casually picked up a plain purse next to the table, on which was embedded with a cluster of clear and elegant wooden trees.

"Jing's! You are guilty! She slammed her purse on the table and shouted.

When Jing Yan heard this, although he was kneeling, his back was straighter, like a cold plum in the ice and snow, and his bones were awe-inspiring.

"If the queen mother says guilty, she is guilty." She is neither humble nor arrogant.

The Empress Dowager seemed to be choked by her, took a sharp breath, and laughed angrily: "The mourning family has wronged you?" ”

Jing Yan said solemnly: "The child doesn't dare!" The queen mother is the empress dowager of the Great Zhou, the mother-in-law of the child, and the aunt of the child. ”

"Huh!" The Empress Dowager sneered, "What a 'respect for the elderly'!" In the end, you're still complaining that your family has wronged you! ”

Jing Yan was silent.

The Empress Dowager was even more angry and pointed at her angrily: "Do you remember that the mourning family is your mother-in-law!" What are you when I am Zhe'er! ”

Jing Yan heard the other party mention Yuwen Zhe, moved, choked up: "The queen mother's Zhe'er is naturally the child's husband......"

"Hah! Husband! The Empress Dowager gritted her teeth and said, "Zhe'er of the mourning family is a woman!" Woman! ”

Jing Yan's eyes were red, "Yes!" She is a woman, but she is the one whom children love deeply! ”

"Nonsense!" The Empress Dowager interrupted her with a pant, "Beloved? What do you say to your mourners now? Back then, how did you answer the mourning family! ”

Jing Yan stagnated.

The Empress Dowager shouted to herself: "You are pretending to be confused with the mourning family!" ...... year Back then, you also knelt in front of the mourning family. The mourning family asked you if you were guilty, and you also said to the mourning family, 'If the queen mother says that she is guilty, she is guilty'! The mourning family asked you what your relationship with Zhe'er was, and you were silent with the mourning family! Pretending to be confused with the mourners! Are you really a mourner? The mourning family was not confused back then, and now they are not old and confused! ”

Jing Yan always hung her head slightly, did not speak, let alone argue, only the clusters of water that were smashed on the gold bricks in the hall exposed her feelings at the moment.

"The mourning family is not confused! The mourners can see your tricks back then! You pushed everything to Zhe'er, didn't say anything, didn't bear anything...... You are behind your back, but you let Zhe'er go out and beg the mourning family to marry you into the door! Poor Mourning Zhe'er! Blinded by your fox! In order to marry you, he did not hesitate to shake his face and speak cruelly with his mourning family! The mourning family worked hard to raise her to adulthood, and exhausted all their efforts to help her ascend to the throne, she actually ...... I was so sorry for you like that! ”

The Empress Dowager said, she couldn't help but think of all the disputes that Yu Wenzhe had with herself back then, and thought of the white-haired person sending the black-haired person, and her only daughter was already separated by yin and yang, and she couldn't help but burst into tears.

Jing Yan's heart ached like a knife when he heard it. Not only because the Empress Dowager mentioned the first emperor, but also because the other party denounced herself as a "fox girl"! Since she was a child, she has always been known for her knowledge, dignity and elegance, and now, her aunt actually said that about her!

However, she couldn't refute it, just as she faced the questioning of the person in front of her thirteen years ago, she could only choose to remain silent-

She never thought that Yu Wenzhe would take all the responsibility for the two of them to love and stay together, she loved Zhe, she only wanted Zhe to be good, and naturally she didn't want Zhe to have trouble with her biological mother. At that time, she thought that Zhe and her aunt were mother and daughter, what could not be said and untied between mother and daughter? So, she chose to remain silent, she didn't want to embarrass Zhe because she had an argument with her aunt.

However, this thought, in the eyes of her aunt, became a secret pouting and pushing everything to Zhe!

Aunt! Scold! Is she really a sister to her mother?

The Empress Dowager was a fiery temper when she was young, which was very different from her sister's gentle and tactful temperament. She was disgusted with Jing Yan's silence, thinking of her daughter under Jiuquan, and remembering all kinds of grievances and grievances with her sister when she was young, all of them were intertwined in one place, and the anger like a volcanic eruption was piled up in an instant-

"Good! It's been thirteen years, and you're playing with the mourning family again! There were tears on her cheeks, but the words she said were as sharp as a knife blade, "Who are you going to calculate this time!" ”

Jing Yan was angry and in pain, gritting his teeth, and desperately supporting his body, so that he would not tremble from helplessness, crying and pain.

Today's events, since they happened, she knew that she couldn't get out of it all. So let it be!

The best, the Empress Dowager gave herself to death. From then on, there was no longer any need to suffer from that double torment.

"Don't speak? The mourning family will speak for you! What's going on with the Stargazing Observatory? What's the matter with the Emperor Qingqing and me? The Empress Dowager became more and more aggressive, "Are you blind when you mourn!" When the mourners don't know your mind? The emperor and Zhe'er look alike, have you thought about it? Zhe'er has been gone for ten years, you can't stand it, right? ”

Jing Yan looked up in amazement, his eyes filled with tears, and he could hardly believe that such words came from the mouth of the most noble woman in the Great Zhou.

She was moved by her mind and thought about Yu Wenrui, but she was not so unbearable!

Seeing her reaction, the Empress Dowager said coldly: "It's a pity that the mourning family only allows you to raise the emperor and call it a sister-in-law, which is actually better than the relationship between mother and daughter." The mourning family is relieved of your affection for Zhe'er, and you will take care of and get close to the emperor, who would like to ...... Who would have thought that it would be a tiger for trouble! ”

When Jing Yan heard this, it was difficult to control his feelings, and the big balls of tears fell silently, and his delicate body trembled. Rao was like this, she gritted her teeth and didn't let herself make even the slightest sound, like a silent confrontation.

The Empress Dowager became more and more talkative, pointed at her, and said: "Zhe'er has been gone for ten years, if you have a mind about others, the mourning family may be able to turn a blind eye and endure it." But you shouldn't! You shouldn't be thinking about Arrow who mourns the family! Did the Yuwen clan owe you in the previous life, or do they owe you the Jing family? ”

She gasped sharply and continued: "It's a big mistake for you to think about Ari, but you still want to slander the reputation of Zhe'er of the mourning family!" She's gone! He was your pillow man! You ask yourself, don't you feel guilty? ”

When Jing Yan heard this, he forgot his sadness, and asked urgently in a dumb voice: "Why did the queen mother say this?" ”

The Empress Dowager stared at her, a dangerous light burst out of her eyes, and said word by word: "Are you pretending to be confused with the mourning family again?" What happened when the emperor went to Monan in person? What's going on with the kid who lives in Zhilanxuan? ”

Jing Yan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help arguing: "That child is the daughter of the old Yi Wang Yuwenda and the county lord of Mo Nanchang......"

"But there are rumors in the court and the opposition that it is the bloodline that Zhe'er left in Monan!"

Jing Yan was stunned.

The Empress Dowager hated: "Don't tell the mourning family that you don't know!" Without the instructions of the palace, the mourning family does not believe it, who dares to spread such news! Without your idea, the mourning family doesn't believe it, the emperor will do it! ”

Jing Yan was shocked.

How could she give the emperor such an idea? This is simply detrimental to Zhe's reputation!

Who is it......

Her mind was in turmoil for a while, and she only heard the Empress Dowager say sadly: "My Zhe'er, when I was alive, I was confused by you. Now that you're gone, you won't let her live in peace! Even with the mourning family, you are also humiliated! The seed left by the son of the maid, a basin of dirty water was poured on my Zhe'er's head! Jing's! What kind of heart do you have! ”

The more she spoke, the angrier she became, "I can't wait to mourn my family...... I can't wait to ......"

In an instant, the blood hit the door of the head, and the anger was uncontrollable, and the Empress Dowager raised her palm and pumped it against Jing Yan's cheek-

There was no expected harsh sound, no expected pain, only a muffled sound that shook the ears of the two men.

The Empress Dowager was stunned and realized that her palm had slapped on a certain piece of clothing, which was from the person in front of her.

She shook her head and found that it was Yu Wenrui, standing between herself and Jing Yan.
