Chapter 18
"Sister-in-law, don't worry too much. Ah Yue, a good person will have a good reward, not to mention that Bu Yi just said it, can he survive in desperate places? Let's think of a way together, we can't mess with ourselves. β
Yang Haolong clenched Xu Wu's trembling hands, she blamed herself for being so stupid and believed what Zhao Yinggang said, this matter had nothing to do with her. In fact, she should have thought a long time ago, but it has nothing to do with her, and it doesn't mean that Zhao Yinggang can be tolerant enough to let other people go.
His heart was tight, and Yang Haolong told Xu Wu: "Sister-in-law, you take good care of the child and don't trust anyone." I'll find a way to go to the dungeon, Ah Yue will be fine, you have to believe me. β
"Nope." Xu Wu's pear blossom and rainy face made people feel even more distressed. Just because of following her, how much suffering did my sister-in-law and Ah Yue endure? She also vowed to take them out of Zhao and live a good life.
Thinking of this, Yang Haolong's heart was full of self-blame.
"Master, you've done enough for us. It's not convenient for you to go to the dungeon right now, I don't know what it is, let me go. If something happens to Ah Yue, what will I do with my children? I'm going to save him. β
Listening to Xu Wan's words, Yang Haolong was amazed by the power of love, which made the originally weak woman gradually become fearless. She was happy, but she couldn't let her take the risk.
"Listen, it's enough for you to take care of the children. I'll find a way to save Ah Yue, and none of us will go to the dungeon to take risks, okay? β
finally calmed down Xu Wu's emotions and sent her back to her residence, so Yang Haolong was relieved. When a thousand things are pressed together in my head, it's really messy.
Now that only one person can rescue Ah Yue, no matter how much Zhao Yinggang is a bastard, as long as the Empress Dowager Rou speaks, he should not ignore his biological mother's orders. had promised that the Queen Mother would leave Zhao as soon as possible, and she had no other conditions in her hands.
"It's all about stalking, being a scoundrel." Yang Haolong thought about it, so he asked Xiao Yuan to take him to Yishou Palace.
Yishou Palace.
Jiang Taishi was holding his divination artifact in front of the Empress Dowager Rou, and the two tortoiseshell-like things were sometimes thrown on the ground, and sometimes they were sprinkled with something that was said to be holy water in their hands.
"Boom, the divine hexagram rises, and the evil star appears." Jiang Taishi had words in his mouth, and then took out a gossip map.
The man standing next to the Empress Dowager Rou was the one who spoke to her in the lotus pond that day. At this time, he was attached to the ear of the Empress Dowager Rou, covering his mouth with one hand and saying something.
After glancing at his actions, Jiang Taishi continued to close his eyes and threw the two pieces of tortoise shells on the Bagua Array Diagram. Empress Dowager Rou also squeezed her handkerchief tightly, waiting for Jiang Taishi to answer the above results.
"Returning to the Queen Mother, this hexagram is not good for what we want to divination. This hexagram shows that the state of Zhao has entered the disaster star, located in the southeast direction of Yishou Palace. If you don't get rid of it as soon as possible, not only the Queen Mother, but even the emperor and Zhao Guo are probably in danger. β
"Presumptuous." Empress Dowager Rou listened to it, the more this Jiang Taishi said, the more outrageous it became. But why was she so flustered? After all, I still believe in this thing.
Taishi Jiang was frightened by the angry rebuke of the Empress Dowager Rou and knelt on the ground, and he didn't dare to raise his eyes. His hands supported his body that almost lost his soul, he was old, and he was afraid of death if he couldn't withstand any wind and rain.
"The Queen Mother spared her life, the old minister just had the courage to tell the truth, the Queen Mother, the old minister has done his best for Zhao Guo for so many years, if he can, the old minister is naturally willing to serve the Queen Mother." Jiang Taishi begged for mercy repeatedly.
Originally, the Empress Dowager Rou wanted to summon him over for divination, saying that she wanted to measure the fortune of Zhao Guo, which is good. Jiang Taishi was still thinking that he could take this opportunity to take Yang Haolong into an army, but now seeing the hesitation of the Empress Dowager Rou, it seems that his plan is about to fall through again.
"Queen Mother." The man standing beside the Empress Dowager Rou spoke: "Actually, Taishi Jiang just told the truth about this matter, since he is the Taishi of Zhao State, he will definitely not spread rumors for no reason." The Queen Mother, please calm her anger. β
The man said, handing over the tea that had just been brewed. Empress Dowager Rou just took a shallow sip, then got up and approached Jiang Taishi, and was about to reach out to help him up, Jiang Taishi was so flattered that he stepped back, and waved his hand in a panic, "No, no, no, the minister doesn't dare to bother the Queen Mother." β
"Alright, hurry up. This palace understands your loyalty to the Zhao State, but the southeast position that the Taishi said is still not very understanding, can the Taishi reveal a little to show some points? Empress Dowager Rou's chin was slightly raised, and she turned around and walked to the window, playing with the peony on the desk.
Jiang Taishi's eyes rolled and he thought that he wanted to make Yang Haolong a good meal, and the old bones would be strong. patted the dust on his clothes, walked to the side of the Empress Dowager Rou, dipped his index finger in the water droplets on the flowers, and wrote a few strokes on the desk.
"What?" Empress Dowager Rou looked at Jiang Taishi in surprise, and then at the man behind her.
Jiang Taishi struck while the iron was hot, and added oil and vinegar to say it, all about the disasters caused by the calamity stars that had been divined. At this time, the Empress Dowager Rou's heart was even more turbulent, and Yang Haolong was really an ominous person. Mo is not a demon star, why would Zhao Yinggang be so desperate for him?
Before Taishi Jiang could say that he was happy, he was already stopped by the Empress Dowager Rou.
"This matter is related to the rise and fall of the Zhao Kingdom in the future, and this palace hopes that the Taishi can control his mouth well. It's enough for you and Bengu to know about this matter. Master, please go back. β
Now that the eviction order had been issued, Jiang Taishi had no choice but to pack up his things and leave. As soon as he walked out of the gate of Yishou Palace, he saw the person in the wheelchair from a distance. Isn't it Yang Haolong? What did he come to do?
Although he was curious, when he looked back, the man who had just followed the Queen Mother also walked out with him.
"Taishi is still not leaving? Do you still want to stay in Yishou Palace? β
"You!" Jiang Taishi knew that he didn't have the ability to speak on the Queen Mother's side, and he didn't dare to offend the person in front of him, and he didn't usually see him in Yishou Palace.
Under the man's sharp gaze, Jiang Taishi could only snort angrily and left. The man noticed Yang Haolong, who was about to come here, and he had been monitoring Long Xiang and the woman named Xu Wu for a day or two, and he really didn't find anything outstanding about Long Xiang.
Maybe it's just hidden deep, who knows?
"Xiao Kite, you just wait here, you don't have to follow me in. Later, if I don't come out after half an hour, you can go to the emperor. β
After Yang Haolong explained, he rolled into Yishou Palace in a wheelchair. Ling Wan happened to come over with a plate of good-looking pastries at this time, looked at Yang Haolong, and smiled.
"Dragon."
"Yes." Yang Haolong nodded, pointed to the Empress Dowager's bedroom and asked, "I don't know if the Empress Dowager is inside?" β
Lingguan walked in and put down the pastry, and asked the Empress Dowager Rou again, and then came out to help Yang Haolong get the wheelchair up the steps. Yang Haolong still didn't understand why there was a high step at the door of the Yishou Palace, and she would ask when she had the chance.
"Did the dragon change his mind? Hongu thought that he would never have the opportunity to see the dragon again. β
After seeing the hexagram of Master Jiang, Empress Dowager Rou learned that Yang Haolong was the disaster star of Zhao State, and she did not have the slightest kindness to her at this moment. I would persuade her to leave with good words before, but it seems that this trick is still too slow.
Yang Haolong didn't know at all, and when she came in just now, she still wanted to discuss Ayue's matter with the Empress Dowager Rou.
"It's such a queen mother, Xu Wu and Ah Yue, who the prime minister said to the queen mother before, are friends and relatives of the prime minister. Now Ah Yue was inexplicably imprisoned in the dungeon by the emperor, and this time he came to let the Queen Mother come forward and protect Ah Yue out. β
Yang Haolong didn't know what the result would be when he openly asked the queen mother of Zhao State like this. But for better or worse, she should do something. Instead of sitting in front of Zhao Yinggang!
Empress Dowager Rou's face darkened instantly, this person really had to inch in.
"Can you ask Long Xiang to tell Bengong, why does Bengong want to offend Bengong's son because of a friend of yours, he is the emperor of Zhao State. Naturally, he has his own ideas about everything, the palace is just the queen mother, and he can take charge of the harem, and the palace has no right to interfere and does not want to interfere in the affairs of the previous dynasty! β
How could she not know that Empress Dowager Rou was pretending to be weak in front of her, who didn't know that Zhao Yinggang still had to avoid her under any circumstances? It must be not easy to invite the Empress Dowager to be a mere subordinate.
Empress Dowager Rou looked at Yang Haolong's frowning appearance, she could understand the mood of a person who was anxious to do something, just like herself, at this time, how much she hoped that Yang Haolong could be expelled from Zhao State in a tough way.
If it weren't for the fear that she would not be able to explain in front of Zhao Yinggang at that time, where would she need to be so twisted and pinched?
"Long Xiang, don't worry about this matter. Accompany Hongu to play a game of chess, right? After the Empress Dowager finished speaking, she called Ling Guan to prepare the chessboard.
Yang Haolong looked at the green jade chess pieces on this couch, which was very exquisite. It's a pity that her current mood is not suitable for such a brain-consuming activity, and the Empress Dowager Rou's hospitality is difficult to resist. What exactly does this woman want to keep her for?
"The Queen Mother's chess skills are exquisite, and she is ashamed of herself. Now can the Queen Mother promise to save Ah Yue? The prime minister promised the Queen Mother's conditions before, and he will definitely fulfill it. If Ah Yue has something in this palace, the queen mother must believe that she will do everything for the sake of her family. β
Empress Dowager Rou was displeased, looked at Yang Haolong solemnly and said, "Are you trying to threaten me?" β
"Don't dare." Yang Haolong raised his hands and shook them.
Xiao Kite, who was still waiting outside at this time, saw that the master had not come out yet. Her palms were already sweating anxiously, and she remembered what Yang Haolong had told her, so she immediately ran to the main hall to find the emperor.
When she was asked to come over to serve Long Xiang, the emperor had specially instructed that if Long Xiang had any accidents, he must be informed in time. Otherwise, even Xiao Yuan's own life will be in danger.
The chess in Yishou Palace continued to be played, one was anxious like sitting on pins and needles, and the other was calm as if watching a good show. Yang Haolong had to admire Empress Dowager Rou's methods, and if he couldn't agree to things immediately, he would put it off.
Whoever is impatient first loses.
"Queen Mother, you still won this game. You know that you have no intention of playing chess today, but you are still so difficult, is this the way the Queen Mother behaves? Yang Haolong's eyes were about to erupt with sparks, she just couldn't see this kind of schadenfreude who took human life seriously.
Just when Yang Haolong couldn't hold back his temperament and wanted to further force the Empress Dowager Rou, Xiao Yuan broke in with Zhao Yinggang. This girl really listened to her words, but it shouldn't be now.
As soon as Zhao Yinggang came in, what she saw was Yang Haolong holding the hand of the Empress Dowager Rou, which was the same as the position where she saw Xu Ying's hand injured. She held on tightly, and the Empress Dowager Rou also grabbed Yang Haolong's other hand, so she was deadlocked.
"The Queen Mother." Zhao Yinggang ran over and pushed the Empress Dowager Rou away.
"That's how you treat Hongu? In the emperor's heart, this palace is no better than an outsider now? Empress Dowager Rou had to admit that she was a little cold at the time.
At this time, Yang Haolong was also shocked, Zhao Yinggang is this for himself? So why did he still imprison Ah Yue behind his back?
"Mother, it's not what you think." Zhao Yinggang knew that explaining at this time would only add to the confusion, so he turned to Yang Haolong. pushed her into the large courtyard of Yishou Palace, and the surrounding girls and eunuchs came out to watch.
"Long Xiang, you offended the Queen Mother today, can you be guilty?"
Yang Haolong snorted disdainfully, expressing her great contempt for Zhao Yinggang. The surrounding girls looked at the attitude of the dragon towards the emperor and began to discuss. At this time, Zhang Kai ran in, looking at the scene in front of him and the spectacular scene around him.
immediately went to evacuate the next person, and called Xiaoyuan and Lingguan away.
In the empty Yishou Palace, everything that needs to be said can be said.
"Dare to ask the emperor, Mo Min behind his back wonderfully put people in the dungeon, what crime did he commit?" Yang Haolong glared at Zhao Yinggang, in fact, she knew that it was because of the man in black, Zhao Yinggang had no place to be angry, so she went to poor Ah Yue.
Zhao Yinggang looked at Yang Haolong's eyes in a daze, and caught a trace of panic in her eyes, she was still a fox and a fake tiger after all.
"Your room is hiding the man in black, since you won't tell me his identity, can't I inquire myself?" Zhao Yinggang's voice was neither humble nor arrogant, his brows were deeply locked, and his eyes were full of determination.
"What is his identity, the emperor can naturally go and ask, but Ah Yue is my person, and I ask the emperor to raise his noble hand, after all, as the king of a country, he actually used such indiscriminate means against a nobody behind his back, if it is announced to the public, it will definitely make the world laugh." The more Yang Haolong spoke, the more angry he became, on the one hand, she was anxious, and her chest moved up and down rhythmically because of shortness of breath.
Unexpectedly, because of a man in black, Yang Haolong's attitude towards herself was almost disgusted, and now because of an irrelevant Ah Yue, she was so angry.
Her various reactions made Zhao Yinggang feel that it was a great insult to herself.
Yang Haolong's tone of speech was rapid and sharp, all of which were questioning, which made Zhao Yinggang difficult to talk about for a while, he had always been domineering in front of her.
After the two confronted each other for a full minute, Zhao Yinggang shook his head and turned around.
"Hey, you ......" Seeing that Zhao Yinggang was leaving, Yang Haolong was a little at a loss, after all, Ah Yue was still in the dungeon, if he was really angry and left, then Ah Yue would be in danger.
But Zhao Yinggang left without looking back, leaving only one sentence: "It seems that Long Xiang was disturbed by the assassin, and he did not rest well, so I will visit Long Xiang in a few days." β
"Hey! You're back! Yang Haolong looked at Zhao Yinggang who was far away, and suddenly softened in the wheelchair, she just wanted to question him, but she didn't expect to be angry with him, what should I do now.
Thinking of the anxious face of the sister-in-law, the little face with pear blossoms and rain, Yang Haolong felt more and more sorry for her.
For today's plan, I have to ask the Empress Dowager Rou again, but there may only be one bargaining chip.
She tried her best to shake the wheelchair to the inner outer surface of the Empress Dowager Rou, looking at the steps and sighing, at this time, Ling Yun came out of the inner room of the Empress Dowager Rou, and saw Yang Haolong who was struggling to get up the steps.
She paced forward and helped Yang Haolong push the wheelchair to the top of the steps.
"Empress Dowager Rou, Haolong sincerely asks to see you, and please appreciate your face." Yang Haolong reversed his usual attitude of speaking, and his tone was full of humility.
"Oh? Our dignified dragon face still has something to ask me, this old woman, and the sun really came out in the west. The snarky tone reached Yang Haolong's ears, and she couldn't wait to turn around and leave.
But thinking of Ah Yue, who was still in the dungeon, and the worried sister-in-law, she had to endure it.
Originally, I wanted to wait for the Empress Dowager Rou to speak before picking up the curtain and entering the inner room, but now I see that this old woman will never know how to respect, no matter how polite you are, she will not enter, on the contrary, every time she breaks in, she looks very helpless.
"You! Come on, send the dragon back home, I must be tired! The Empress Dowager Rou obviously didn't want to wade into her troubled waters, so she directly issued an eviction order.
"Wait! Empress Dowager Rou, as long as you are willing to help me, I guarantee that I will disappear in front of your eyes after the matter is completed, and I will never set foot in the Zhao Kingdom. Yang Haolong said neither humbly nor arrogantly, but she was actually very worried in her heart, after all, it is unknown whether this matter can be coerced by the Empress Dowager Rou.
Empress Dowager Rou was originally leaning on him, planning to close her eyes and recuperate, but when she heard Yang Haolong's words, she sat up as if she had been electrocuted.
Regardless of his identity, he asked anxiously: "Is what Long Xiang said true?" β
"A gentleman's word is quick and a whip!" Yang Haolong said indifferently.
"Okay, you say, what's the condition?" Empress Dowager Rou had already regarded Yang Haolong as a thorn in her side, and she had long wished for her to leave, but today she heard the words of Master Jiang, although the old man said that it was evil, her heart was full of doubts, but to a certain extent, it also aggravated her idea of desperately wanting Yang Haolong to leave.
Unexpectedly, this old guy wanted to leave so much, the corners of Yang Haolong's mouth rose slightly, and a smile flashed on his face.
"It's simple, promise me two things." Yang Haolong said simply.
"Okay, please!" Empress Dowager Rou stared at Yang Haolong's eyes, hoping to read something from her eyes.
Yang Haolong turned his head away from the sharp eyes of the Empress Dowager Rou, and said, "You help me rescue Ah Yue, he is now locked in a dungeon by the emperor." β
"He is the person the emperor wants, and the palace is afraid that it is not easy to ask for people, but this matter is not impossible......" Empress Dowager Rou's voice was not loud, and she seemed to be talking to herself.
"The Queen Mother is Chitose and wise, only under the emperor alone, this little thing is difficult to think of the Queen Mother." Yang Haolong patted the old woman's ass at the right time.
Sure enough, no matter what age or age a woman is, she likes to listen to such exaggerated sycophants.
She said with a smile: "It's hard to come to this palace, what is the other condition?" Say it all along! β
"This other condition, it's even easier, Benxiang's legs have been a little conscious in recent days, and Benxiang hopes that the Queen Mother can let Zhao Guo's miracle doctor help Weichen resume walking." Yang Haolong was obviously not polite, and directly offered the conditions.
I thought that the second condition would not be agreed to by the Empress Dowager Rou no matter what, but I didn't expect her to agree without showing too much hesitation.
This made Yang Haolong a little puzzled, could she have a way to treat her? Or did she not really want to leave Zhao Guo?
No, she wanted her to leave sooner than anyone else, preferably the kind she would never meet.
In fact, Yang Haolong just muttered about her disgust in the Empress Dowager Rou's heart, she really as long as Yang Haolong can leave, no matter what conditions are offered, she will try her best to meet them.
The first step is just to heal the leg injury, and there are countless famous doctors who want to come to Zhao State, and they will definitely be cured, so let her get out of the way when the time comes.
"Empress Dowager Rou, did you really agree? You won't regret it, will you? Yang Haolong confirmed that she always felt that the Queen Mother agreed too simply, and according to her previous character, it would not be so easy to compromise.
Although the Empress Dowager Rou tried her best to maintain it, the years still left traces on her face, and she frowned and said a little gloomily: "What if you don't agree, if the palace doesn't agree, can you leave willingly?" How can I, Zhao Guo, allow you, a calamity, to continue to plague the court. β
"Scourge?" The first time he heard this word, Yang Haolong was still a little surprised, who came up with a crooked idea to get rid of her?
Remembering the face he saw when he first came in, it seemed that this calamity star was undoubtedly from his mouth.
"The Empress Dowager Rou is also a person who has experienced wind and rain and has seen the world, how can she listen to the words of the Taishi." Yang Haolong did not intend to save face for Jiang Taishi, but said it in one word.
Empress Dowager Rou's face was a little red, and she seemed to be a little embarrassed to be recognized.
"Long Xiang, in fact, you don't have to be angry, even if the disaster star says that this palace doesn't believe it, but you can't just stay in Zhao Guo, you should know it. It's just that Hongu has made your moves ahead of schedule. The Empress Dowager Rou turned around and walked to the edge of the collapse and sat on her legs.
"Someone!" The Empress Dowager called softly.
"The slave is here." Ling Yun walked in from the outside curtain lifting.
"What does the Queen Mother command?" Ling Yun has been following the Queen Mother for many years, and she is very clever, she bowed her head and saluted the Queen Mother.
Empress Dowager Rou said: "You help Long Xiang and let her sit on the couch too, I want to have a good chat with Long Xiang." β
Yang Haolong was very surprised when this remark came out, what is there to talk about between them? However, for the sake of Ah Yue, she couldn't refuse, so she could only sit on the couch with Ling Yun's support.
Thinking about this situation, even if he was served tea and sent away, it was expected, but Yang Haolong did not expect to receive such courtesy. The soft couch was covered with fine dark satin, her tentacles were slightly cold, she shivered, and the Queen Mother called Lingguan to take a thick material to cover her legs.
"Bring the chessboard to Hongu." Lingguan responded to Shi Shiran and went out, and came in with a chessboard in a blink of an eye. I don't know which play this old fox is singing, so it's better to wait and see what happens. Yang Haolong was silent, only raised his hand to play with the white jade chess pieces in his hand. It's also good jade.
Before Yang Haolong could speak, the Queen Mother spoke first: "The mourning family is also very boring, and I think you are also a person who wants to travel far away in a few days, so it is better to play a game of chess with the mourning family." looked as usual, but these words were like very elders, not the queen mother who was eager to crush herself on weekdays.
The sound of falling children sounded from time to time. Yang Haolong is good at chess on weekdays, and he doesn't want the Queen Mother to be a good chess player, and it is difficult to distinguish between victory and defeat for a while.
"The Queen Mother plays a good hand of chess." Yang Haolong's words carried a bit of admiration.
"It's just that I'm usually alone, so I have to think about this." The Queen Mother was also fascinated, only bowed her head and looked at the chess game, and didn't look at her much.
It took a lot of effort for Yang Haolong to hold back and snort coldly. She was favored when she was young, and after her abdication, she drilled into camps, where would she be idle?
However, he was already stumbling on the chessboard, and he was very embarrassed, so he only responded casually, "The position of the queen mother, it is really rare to be idle." β
"Why don't you let the mourning family let you have a few sons?" The Queen Mother raised her eyes to look at her, her expression was different from usual, there seemed to be something, but she couldn't see clearly. "No, you don't."
Yang Haolong couldn't figure out what the Queen Mother was thinking today, and he didn't want to think about it, so he raised his hand and landed in the center of the chessboard. You may not be as good as others in chess, but you can't change if you lose and don't lose the battle.
"I don't know what the Queen Mother said today? Chen really can't understand the sound outside the strings. β
This act of trespassing did not move the Queen Mother in the slightest, her expression was still in a trance, looking at the chessboard, but it seemed to remember something. opened his mouth to urge again, and then he suddenly realized, and picked a black jade chess piece and landed in a square.
"When the mourning family was drafted...... her expression looked very dazed, it turned out that she was thinking about the long past.
"I was favored by the saint at that time, and I was unusually crowned, and I was favored for a while." Yang Haolong fell, and he didn't know how to respond, thinking that it would be better to listen silently at this time.
At that time, the palace should have been as magnificent as it is now.
And this vermilion door, I don't know how many people's blood was soaked in to build; The faded color is only the blood that coagulates the dark.
The morning bell dawns, and the singing and dancing are leveled; The crow in the twilight of the day, I don't know who it was for.
Suddenly, I thought of the battle in the palace, and I had only heard about it, but talking to such a person who had been on the battlefield for a long time was another experience.
If anyone gains anything in this house, it must be taken from someone else, which makes people disgusted.
Since he is already the winner of the high position, why should he think about the old days?
Yang Haolong, who thought too much for a while, lost a son unconsciously, like a horse stumbling on the front hoof, it was already evenly matched, but now that he has lost a son, I am afraid that he will collapse in the future.
This made her regret for a while, but now it seemed more important to listen to the person in front of her. If you miss these, you won't have a chance again? She no longer thought about how to respond to the chess game, she only looked at the jewel on the queen mother's head.
"It's also the mourning family, who was young and vigorous at that time... was framed and sent to the cold palace in one day. β
Even if it is such a mother and a person in the world, it is impossible to escape the open and secret battles in the palace.
She has seen heroes fall and beauties in the twilight, but she doesn't know that people who are usually-for-tat with themselves have such secrets.
Not only was I surprised, but I also had a lot of admiration for the person in front of me. After thinking about it, this person wanted to say this after he claimed that he would not return to Zhao after the matter was completed, maybe he intended to make people feel compassion for her.
Let's hear what she wants to say.
Thinking like this in his heart, he coped with the words, "The Queen Mother's mother has encountered such a thing, and the sky is pitiful." "There are still no waves on the face.
I didn't want the Queen Mother to just take the talk. "It's just that when I see your legs, I think of those things about the rotten grains of Chen sesame seeds. It's the mourning family who has lost his temper. β
is very polite, and the fall has no previous momentum, probably both of them are not on the chess game.
She sent someone to collect the chess, and took away the pretended politeness and talked eloquently.
"At that time, food, clothing, housing and transportation were all controlled by others, and the traitors framed the root of the disease, and when it rained on a cloudy day, the whole body was painful. The problem of physical weakness cannot be made up for no matter how much medicine you take. β
These words were like thunder in Yang Haolong's ears.
"Actually... This kind of thing..."What happened to the Queen Mother, how can you guess it."
Probably living in a remote house without a heater and suffering from rheumatism.
As for the weakness, I don't know when and who took the opportunity to take what medicine to reach that level, just the food and water were deliberately neglected by the subordinates, and it was not so difficult to cure.
Is this really what this powerful person in front of him has experienced? Thinking of his own experience, Yang Haolong was even more heartbroken for a while.
The chess pieces in this hand and the silk on the seat are just the right amount of coolness, and the bleak coldness of a down-and-out woman's residence at that time, it is like two heavens. 's own situation has also made me melancholy for a while, and when I heard that the queen mother was more embarrassed than I was at the beginning, I had mixed feelings. The outcome of the chess game is really incomprehensible.
"I really didn't expect such a thing......"
She sighed, seeing that she had reacted like this, and the Queen Mother did not see any joy on her face, it seemed that there was a little more possibility that this matter was true, but now she couldn't take care of it. Yang Haolong was only shocked for a long time and couldn't reply.
The Queen Mother also lost her mind a few times during her words just now, probably thinking of the prosperity and bleakness of those years, and the fact that one person's grace overturned her fate in an instant.
Summoned Lingguan to make a new pot of tea. The tea, which has not been touched by the two of them for a long time, has cooled a lot.
She didn't look depressed for too long as Yang Haolong imagined, the wrinkles between her eyebrows stretched out in an instant, and she returned to her usual cold look.
"I don't need to be so sympathetic. After that, I returned to my original position and threw the concubine into the cold palace. I heard that when he died, he was covered with sores and not a good piece of skin. β
At this time, the Queen Mother's eyes were as heavy as midnight, and a flash of fire suddenly flashed. Seeing the enemy end up like that, no one will inevitably laugh.
However, at this time, Yang Haolong only wanted to ask one thing, which made her almost interrupt the Queen Mother's speech.
"Then did the Queen Mother hate the first emperor?"
The Queen Mother was also shocked when she heard this, and then her expression became sad, which made people can't help but imagine what kind of flower-like appearance she had when she first entered the palace.
However, the years have passed, leaving only a little grace for people to hang on, and the rest are hardened and decisive.
"Hate? How can I and him be the same hateful word to speak? That look is the real sadness.
This is someone Yang Haolong has never seen before, and it is the first time she has seen such a look on someone else's face.
"He just let me be bullied like that," he forgot for a moment even what he claimed, and his tone became eager.
"How can I not hate? The day's love was exhausted. After that, I was favored again, but I no longer had the affection I had at that time. β
"It's human nature. If you are an ordinary person, I am afraid that you will inevitably break up. At this time, it was not the queen in front of her, but just an ordinary woman who had lost her lover.
The sense of distance that usually sits in the high hall has also been broken, and only the sympathy of the same woman remains.
"But I still depend on that man for my survival. I can also think clearly about the stakes, even if there is only resentment left, I can only study how to please him every day. β
"The emperor lives up to his wishes...... Ahh......h By chance, I finally returned to my palace, where the servants were scattered and the courtyard was deserted... He sent people to bring food, clothing, spices, rouge and gouache. It's better than before I was in the cold palace... But where can I go back..."
Speaking of which, her usual demeanor supported her from tears, but her body trembled, and the jewels in her hair shook slightly.
"He still can't be as naΓ―ve as I was then, and I was affectionate at that time. He can't repay the sins that Bengong has suffered over the years......"
Yang Haolong didn't know how to respond, and he was at a loss.
This person's usual image seems to be a high platform that has been in disrepair for a long time, but there are signs of collapse for a while. It's just that tears oozed from the corners of his eyes, and he didn't know how to deal with it.
And what happened to her, how could others solve it in a few words?
Yang Haolong has always been decisive about his own affairs, and he is nothing more than a move; Even if you want to rescue the imprisoned people now, it doesn't matter if you have to leave the country yourself.
However, she realized that it was only because she had no worries, and she had a lot more freedom than ordinary people. I haven't had the experience of being controlled by others, is it worth satisfying?
After thinking about it, she could only say in a deep voice, "The past is all over the past, and the Queen Mother should not be too sentimental, it will consume your precious body." "I know it's a scene that won't help, but I can't just say nothing at this time.
Rao thought about such a thing, and the queen mother is still the queen mother, the master of the harem who stepped on countless corpses.
She quickly restrained her grief, the tearful young woman before was gone in an instant, and now sitting here is the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother she knows.
"What Hongu said today," she said she had also put back her hair, as neat as the jewels and jade on her sideburns now, "don't say a word...... But also, you're going to leave for another country soon, and I'm afraid you won't have anything to talk about. β
"The minister is clear."
"Not many people know about these things. Over the years, the palace has searched for the imperial doctor, and also invited a lot of rural langzhong, but the previous illness has been deposited for several years, and there is no prescription for the medicine stone, only the way to cultivate one's self and self-cultivation, which is not the solution of the solution. Therefore, the palace rarely goes out, and when I am alone, I just copy the scriptures and recite the Buddha, and play chess with the maid to relieve my boredom. However, if one or two of the people looking for can help you, it will not be in vain. β
"Minister...... Appreciate. Yang Haolong lowered his head and said yes, but after listening to the words of the Empress Dowager Rou, he seemed to know another her, and his heart was a little confused for a while.
At this time, there were people outside the palace who were in the same state of mind, and since early in the morning they had heard the screams of birds contending, and the noise made the people in the house upset.
"Damn...... How could Ah Yue be locked up. Li Dingqing was alone in the room and was so anxious that he paced back and forth.
What does Zhao Yinggang mean by this, is it possible that he thinks that it was Ah Yue who did it last time. No, you must save Ah Yue, Zhao Yinggang must know what Ah Yue knows, maybe he will be tortured. If you're a few steps late, you don't know what's going to happen.
"What should I do?" The knuckles of the fingers were clenched, and the brow was furrowed unusually obviously.
The emperor didn't know who he was, maybe he was waiting for him. Do you have to go to prison robbery? Of course, I understand the danger of robbing a prison alone, but at present, I can't care so much about saving people, is there any better way?
However, the palace is heavily guarded, and it is even more difficult to go to the heavenly prison to rob the prison, if you just enter and take something to deliver a message, you can just give up, but it will definitely be difficult to succeed in robbing the prison by yourself, someone must help, but who should you find.
Prison escape is a matter that must be done with people you trust, and martial arts must also be excellent. Who can go with him to save others?
Li Dingqing thought carefully in his heart, and finally had a candidate. "Maybe I can go to her." The beautiful face came to his mind, and he closed his eyes and sighed, there was no time to hesitate now.
Even if he was reluctant, Li Dingqing stood in front of You Shengnan's door, but he didn't dare to enter when he looked at the door. I am sorry for You Shengnan, I know clearly that she loves her, and if she asks for it, she will definitely not have any excuses.
But, that's exploiting! How can I take advantage of a woman who loves me so much in order to save others, is this what a man does?
Li Dingqing's heart was burning at this time, he just thought of coming to You Shengnan on impulse and couldn't care about it so much, but now that he thought about it, he found that he was really selfish.
What to do, saving people is obviously just your own business, how can you drag others into the water. Thinking of this, his hand in front of the door hovered in the air and stopped.
Now that Ah Yue is in danger, no one knows what kind of treatment he received when he was locked up in prison, how could he hesitate anymore.
He took a deep breath and raised his hand again to knock on the door, but his hand seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and he couldn't make the next move, and his inner struggle made a mess in his brain.
After all, I still can't do it, so I'll go and rob the prison alone tonight. Thinking of this, Li Dingqing turned around and wanted to leave, but he heard someone's voice coming out of the room - a beautiful female voice.
"Who's out there."
Li Dingqing's departing footsteps stopped, sighed, and then turned around and replied, "It's me." β
What is he doing here, will he actually come to see me, You Shengnan already recognized who was standing outside the room as soon as he heard this voice.
"Since you're here, why don't you come in quickly." You Shengnan has always been bold, but at this time, like a little daughter-in-law, he hurriedly straightened his hair. Sure enough, it is said that in front of his beloved, he is a person, and he will always pay attention to his image.
You Shengnan knows this bold look, men will definitely not fall in love with her, but she has always been like this, if she has to change herself, as long as he opens her mouth, she can do anything.
When he opened the door, You Shengnan saw Li Dingqing standing outside the house. There was an anxious look on his face.
"What's wrong?" Don't look at You Shengnan's bold style, but after all, she is a woman, and a little detail can attract her attention, as soon as she looks at Li Dingqing's appearance, she understands that there must be something to ask for, and it must be a big deal if she finds herself. "Let's talk about it in the house first, it's not convenient to talk outside."
"Katsuo." Li Dingqing opened his mouth, but he didn't know where to start. In the final analysis, Ah Yue was arrested and caused by himself, but it has nothing to do with You Shengnan, how can he open this mouth to ask the woman in front of him to help.
"Tell me, what the hell is going on. You know I'm going to be able to help you with anything you do, unless you don't treat me like a friend. You Shengnan saw his hesitation, smiled and comforted someone to pour him a glass of water.
