Xue Tianao frowned tightly and grabbed her hand, "It turns out that you came here for me, why?" Why don't you sue me? When you are helpless, you can come to me. ”

Xiao Wanyao still shook her head, "The matter has come to this, there is no need to chase so much again, not to mention, I am also for my family." There are many other things that I do hide from you. She lowered her head slightly, not looking at him, "I just want to use my own ability to control my own destiny." ”

Xue Tianao looked at her distressedly, hugged her tightly into his arms, and whispered in her ear, "Wan Yao, come with me, I will take you back to the Wei Kingdom, where you can do whatever you want, there is a city I built for you, and in that city you are completely free and carefree." Come with me, okay? ”

Xiao Wanyao wanted to follow him and let him bring herself into his promise, and really live that kind of free and carefree life, but she couldn't, there was still her concern here. What's more, despite the beauty of the promise, she couldn't believe it.

After he becomes the monarch of Wei in the future, what is the difference between him and Guo Ping? If she was really with him, she would only be one of the harems.

"Wan Yao, don't you believe me? Don't believe I can do what I say? Xue Tianao asked again.

She still shook her head, "I can't leave here anymore!" Tianao, go back, go back to Wei and get what belongs to you. I'll be here to pray for you, the two of us will never have a chance to be together again in this life, forget about me. ”

Just as Xue Tianao was about to say something, a sound of horses' hooves came from a distance, and the sound was coming towards this side. The two of them frowned at the same time, and Xue Tianao asked her again, "Are you really not going with me?" ”

Xiao Wanyao shook her head affirmatively, "Hurry up and get out of here." Go back to Wei! That's where you're going to be. ”

Xue Tianao looked at her for a long time.

"Wan Yao!" Shangguan Yunfan's voice came from a distance. Xue Tianao let go of her, took one last deep look at her, turned around and left before Shangguan Yunfan could find him, and disappeared into the vast night.

She stood there, staring in the direction he had left, unable to trace him, but she still stood there, staring up at the twinkling stars in the sky. Closing my eyes slightly, a tear slipped down again, this is the last tear I shed for you, I pray for you alone in this life.

Shangguan Yunfan rode to Xiao Wanyao's place, and was slightly relieved to see that she was safe and sound, but he saw her standing there staring in one direction in a daze, and as she looked into the distance, what he saw was also a night of stars, so he couldn't help sighing, and said faintly, "Do you know who the person who saved us is?" ”

Xiao Wanyao opened her eyes, all the tenderness turned into sharp cold arrogance, she is a hedgehog covered in thorns, from now on, no one can make her so tender like water, and she will have to fight every day in the days to come, for her, for Guo Rui, for all the people around her.

She turned around and looked up at Shangguan Yunfan on horseback, the corners of her mouth raised, hooking a daunting sneer, "No matter who saved us, the next thing is the point." Let's go back. ”

Shangguan Yunfan paused slightly, and smiled lightly, he had his own thoughts in his heart, but if she didn't say it, he wouldn't ask. He stretched out his hand to pull Xiao Wanyao on the horse, and when he was leaving, he couldn't help but glance in that direction again. After that, he took Xiao Wanyao back to his residence.

And in the night, the black figure stood there quietly, watching the two people on horseback gradually move away, and in the dark night, he couldn't see through his deep eyes. If Wei can't give you the freedom you want, then what about the whole world? Wherever you have ever stepped on, I will tread it flat.

Shangguan Yunfan took Xiao Wanyao to ride back slowly, on the horseback, he gently grabbed the reins in front of her, and the corners of his mouth hooked a faint smile, "I remember that we used to ride horses like this before." ”

Xiao Wanyao nodded and smiled slightly, "At that time, you were going to kidnap me and go to Hezhou to treat your brother." Something else happened in between. By the way, how is Yunqing's illness? Where is he now? ”

Shangguan Yunfan said, "His illness has been cured, he knows that you are already the queen of Chu, before I came here, he told me that if I have the opportunity to see you, I must say thank you to you, if it were not for you, he might have died a long time ago." ”

Xiao Wanyao said lightly with a touch of regret, "It's just a pity that I couldn't heal his leg, if I can make him stand up and walk again, I would be happy to accept his gratitude to me." ”

The horse walked slowly towards Shangguan Yunfan's residence, the two of them didn't speak for a long time, and suddenly Shangguan Yunfan broke the silence and asked, "You really don't want to sue me, who is the person who rescued you?" And who are those black-clad masked men? Did you know that they killed everyone who saw us. ”

Xiao Wanyao paused slightly, frowning, "He probably wants to protect us, so he wants to kill people." However, after this incident, some people have already guessed that we will steal the corpse, and it must have been planned for a long time, and we will have to be more careful in the future. Thank you for that, and I almost got you involved. ”

Shangguan Yunfan smiled lightly and said nonchalantly, "If you really want to thank me, just tell me who the person who rescued you is, he rescued you alone, he should be someone who knows you, and he must have something to say to you." ”

Xiao Wanyao stared ahead and did not answer. When he saw that she did not speak, he did not ask any more questions, but said to himself, "If I say that I have guessed who he is, will you believe me?" ”

Xiao Wanyao glanced back at him, "In the future, there will be no more such person here." There is no need to mention his name again. ”

This seemed to be a kind of acquiescence, Shangguan Yunfan got the answer he wanted, he knew that Xue Tianao would not die so easily, and if it wasn't for him this time, he would probably be in trouble. It seems that he is really gone this time.

Back at Shangguan Yunfan's residence, Xiao Wanyao reminded him not to mention this matter in front of Zhenling and them, because of the Zhentian matter, she was already upset enough, and she didn't want her to worry about other things.

Xiao Wanyao went to see Zhentian and checked the wound. The fever has gone away a lot, because of the effect of the drug, the person is still asleep. When she got up to leave, Zhenling personally sent her out, and Shangguan Yunfan was still waiting outside the main hall. Zhen Ling was slightly stunned when he saw him, and then turned his eyes to look at Xiao Wanyao beside him, "Why is Shangguan Gongzi still here so late?" ”

Shangguan Yunfan said, "Naturally, I'm worried about shaking the sky!" So come and have a look. However, just as he said this, his eyes couldn't help but look at Xiao Wanyao. This was naturally seen by Zhenling, but she didn't say anything.

Xiao Wanyao knew that Zhenling had something to say to herself, so she said to Shangguan Yunfan, "Shangguan Gongzi Zhentian is fine now, don't worry, it's getting late, if it's okay, let's go back and rest early." ”

Shangguan Yunfan nodded, "Then I'll leave first." Then he turned and left.

After he was gone, she turned to face Shaker, "I know you're going to ask Shaker about it. She sighed and said, "Earthquake can stand up and walk, or he can live on his own, but ...... He can no longer be a killer, and he can no longer hold a sword. ”

Zhenling was stunned, looking at her blankly, her lips trembling slightly. Xiao Wanyao knew what it meant to them not being able to hold the sword, she grabbed Zhen Ling's hand, "Don't worry, I will definitely find a way to get you out of here and find a safe place, no one can find you." Mingjun, they left it to me and Mingyu to deal with them. They will never find you. ”

Quakemon didn't speak, she couldn't think about those things. Xiao Wanyao didn't know how to comfort her at the moment. She turned around and walked towards the inner room, and when she reached the door, she suddenly turned to face Xiao Wanyao, "Miss, let me tell Zhentian about this matter, maybe I can persuade him to let go of some things and live the life of the two of us." Just ......"

Xiao Wanyao hurriedly said, "Don't worry, I'll be fine." There is also Mingyu here, and there are many other people who can help me, as long as you and Zhentian leave here safely and live the life you want to live. Don't worry about anything else. ”

Although he was a little reluctant, after hearing this, Zhenling nodded gratefully, and then went back to accompany Zhentian. Xiao Wanyao sighed slightly and left them, but as soon as she walked out, she saw Shangguan Yuanfan standing in the corridor not far away, as if she was still waiting for herself, so she walked over, "Shangguan Gongzi, why didn't you go back to rest?" Is there something you want to tell me? ”

Shangguan Yunfan nodded, "I already know the situation of Zhentian, he can't continue to stay here now, and then you will have one less person to do things for you outside the palace." ”

Xiao Wanyao stared at him strangely, and when she saw him with a wicked smile again, she couldn't help but squint her eyes, "Shangguan Gongzi seems to have something to say, without Zhentian and Zhenling, could it be that Shangguan Gongzi wants to help me?" ”

He didn't hide it, and nodded sincerely, "That's right, I'm going to help you." I'm not a killer, but don't underestimate a businessman, maybe my network is stronger than theirs, and you're sure to need me sometimes. ”

This made Xiao Wanyao a little surprised, Shangguan Yunfan is not the kind of person who helps others in vain. chuckled, "The favor I don't want to owe in this world is yours." I know I owe you 100,000 taels of silver, and I promise to give you another benefit. As long as I return to the palace, I will fulfill what I promised. It's just that Shangguan Gongzi just said that he wants to help me, so what about the conditions? ”

Shangguan Yunfan lowered his voice mysteriously, "Do you believe that I can predict the future?" ”

Xiao Wanyao couldn't help laughing, "You don't want to sue me, you used to jump a big rope, right?" ”

He laughed, "I know you don't believe it, but it doesn't matter, that's not the point anyway." Most of my business is in Wei and very few in Chu, I want to develop my business here, and I want to cooperate with the government. This requires the strong support of the queen. ”

Xiao Wanyao frowned, Shangguan Yunfan had mentioned this matter to herself before, but she hadn't had a chance to talk to Guo Ping about it, because of Xue Tianao's matter, she and Guo Ping had a very unpleasant quarrel, and in the palace, everyone was rumored that she, the queen of Wei, was becoming more and more unfavored, and there were even ministers who talked about it in the court.

This is definitely not a good omen, she doesn't know how long she can go in the harem of Chu State, the person who really has the strength to be the queen must have a strong maiden family as a backing, and she has almost nothing here.

Chapter 235: Trouble

She sighed, "I really want to help you, but you should have heard some news, I am not the most favored person in front of Guo Ping, not to mention that I am still the queen from afar." There are no ministers in the DPRK and China to support me, and many times I am unable to protect myself, so what can I do to support you? ”

Shangguan Yunfan seemed to have expected her to say this, and he also knew Xiao Wanyao's situation at this time, and said, "I didn't want you to help me speak in front of Guo Ping, but I just asked you to help me find out the news." ”

Xiao Wanyao paused slightly, staring at him, Shangguan Yunfan continued, "As the queen in the harem, if Guo Ping has any important decisions, you will definitely be able to help me find out the news." As long as I can know the news before anyone else, I'll take care of the rest. ”

Xiao Wanyao finally knew what Shangguan Yunfan meant. Although she can't help him, she can help him grasp the information earlier, which is crucial in business. She curled the corners of her mouth slightly, nodded and said, "No problem, I can do this." ”

Shangguan Yunfan also smiled and said, "So we made a deal." ”

Xiao Wanyao smiled, she could still do this. Although Shangguan Yunfan is sometimes unpredictable, after this incident, he is indeed a friend worth making, and he is qualified and more capable of being her friend.

Xiao Wanyao disguised herself as a guard He Hu and blended into the palace again. This time she has been out for a few days, and I don't know what the palace looks like now. Hopefully, nothing had happened, but when she returned, she realized that it was far from being as simple as she thought.

After Yan Ran left smoothly, Zhu'er hurriedly said to Xiao Wanyao, "Queen Mother, why are you only coming back now, do you know that something is wrong." ”

Xiao Wanyao was stunned, thinking that there was no news in the palace and that she had already passed the test, she frowned slightly, looking at Zhu'er's anxious appearance, it seemed that the matter was not small, "What happened?" ”

"Concubine Xian's baby has been miscarried!" Pearls said in a low voice.

She was stunned for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "What does it matter to me that she has a miscarriage?" As long as the emperor doesn't know about me secretly leaving the palace, other things are nothing. What's more, people like Huo Yongdie will suffer the consequences sooner or later. ”

Since Xiao Wanyao knew that Xue Tianao was not dead, she was in a much better mood. And she decided to fight back, and she would definitely not be the obedient Xiao Wanyao in the past. Now she has to do everything she can to protect the people around her, so that Rui'er can grow up by her side.

She picked up the teacup in front of the table and lowered her head to drink tea, and listened to Zhu'er say, "The emperor really didn't notice that you left the palace, but the child in Concubine Xian's belly was lost because of the queen." ”

Xiao Wanyao didn't drink the tea in her mouth, so she raised her head and asked, "Why is it because of me?" What happened? ”

Zhu'er locked her eyebrows and said, "After Concubine Xian Niangniang became pregnant, the emperor has always been used to going to her, plus the noble Shi who came to her heart stood with her, the emperor was very kind to them, you also know Concubine Xian's personality, what she hates the most is the queen's mother, and she will naturally come to the queen to show off after she is favored." But ......"

Zhu'er bit her lower lip and sighed, "If you were here, this would not have happened, but who made the people here Yan and not you." ”

Xiao Wanyao suddenly had an ominous premonition, then put down the teacup and asked, "What did Yanran do to Concubine Xian?" ”

Zhu'er continued, "Miss Yanran couldn't stand Concubine Xian's arrogant appearance, so she pressed her as the queen, and as a result, she knelt outside Xiyun Palace for two hours. was also slapped twice until Concubine Xian fainted outside. ”

Xiao Wanyao gasped and stood up suddenly, although she couldn't stand people like Huo Yongdie, she did things in a measured manner, at least she wouldn't get into trouble herself. Huo Yongdie was pregnant with the emperor's child, which is well known to Zhou, the queen punished her to kneel outside, obviously intentionally to get rid of the child in her belly, if this crime is really suppressed, the consequences will be unimaginable.

She frowned tightly and complained, "How can this be, doesn't it make you optimistic about Yanran?" You should know about Concubine Xian's pregnancy. ”

Zhu'er nodded, and she was also very anxious, "The slave maid knows, but at the beginning, Miss Yanran didn't know that Concubine Xian was pregnant, and after she was punished by Yanran to kneel outside Xiyun Palace, the slave maid told her, she said, the queen spoke a word, and there was no way to take it back, so let her kneel there all the time." ”

Xiao Wanyao couldn't help but hold her forehead with her head, oh my God! This happened. Yan Ran is gone now, and the rest of the mess has to be cleaned up by herself.

But there was no way, she had to face the following things, "How is Concubine Xian doing now?" ”

Zhu'er said, "The emperor was with her all day yesterday, and Concubine Xian naturally hated the queen's mother, after all, she had been looking forward to a child for many years. Moreover, the emperor allowed Concubine Xian's family to visit the palace, and Concubine Xian's father, Huo Fanghao, scolded you angrily in front of hundreds of civil and military officials in the early days of the court, saying that you ......"

Xiao Wanyao waved her hand, "Forget it, don't talk about the rest of the story!" She supported her forehead with her hands, leaned sideways on the table, and Yan Ran was really going to get into trouble.

Zhu'er looked at her and was very anxious, Huo Yongdie was difficult to deal with, coupled with her father's pressure above the court, Xiao Wanyao's position was in jeopardy. Recently, she has been at odds with the emperor again, but fortunately, Guo Ping is still in love with Xiao Wanyao, and temporarily helped her suppress this matter.

But everyone knows that if Guo Ping doesn't give an explanation, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the Huo family to calm down. Huo Yongdie just said a few words in front of Yanran that she couldn't listen to, and she didn't make any big mistakes, so she shouldn't let the pregnant Huo Yongdie kneel outside.

It is indeed a bit far-fetched to talk about the royal rules.

Zhu'er couldn't help but ask, "Queen Mother, what should I do?" After the accident, the emperor has been with Concubine Xian and has not come over, but sooner or later he will come, at least he has to find a way to give the emperor an explanation. ”

Xiao Wanyao naturally knew that she had to give Guo Ping an explanation, but how to say it? She took a deep breath, now that she couldn't escape in the harem, she finally spoke, "There's no way, no excuse. Since he will come to Hongu, then admit what he has done, and then bear the consequences that he should bear. ”

Guo Ping comforted Huo Yongdie for a long time, and also accompanied her for a long time. He was really angry about this matter, watching Huo Yongdie cry day and night, he also knew what this child meant to Huo Yongdie. The reason why he didn't leave here was because he didn't want Huo Yongdie to commit suicide in despair.

Coupled with the rhetoric of the ministers of the DPRK and China, it is said that Xiao Wanyao is blushing, deliberately mutilating the royal heirs, causing trouble in the harem, and some people have even put forward the idea of abolishing the queen. It's just that Guo Ping hasn't seen Xiao Wanyao yet, and he has to listen to her in person before he can make up his mind.

Guo Ping finally let Huo Yongdie sleep quietly, and then hurriedly came to Xiao Wanyao.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Xiao Wanyao standing at the door, "The concubine sees the emperor." ”

Guo Ping's eyes narrowed, and he ordered everyone to go down, and no one could come in without his order. When the others went out, Guo Ping's eyes never left Xiao Wanyao.

It wasn't until there were only the two of them left in the room that he suppressed the anger in his heart and asked, "Empress, do you know why I'm here today?" ”

Xiao Wanyao's face did not change, and she stood aside, "The concubine knows, because of the matter of the virtuous concubine." ”

Seeing her indifferent look, Guo Ping finally couldn't hold back the anger in his heart and yelled at her, "Do you know how difficult this child is for Concubine Xian, you are also a mother now, you should be more aware of how painful it is to lose a child as a mother." Why are you doing this? ”

Xiao Wanyao lowered her cheeks slightly, "The concubine knows this feeling, if anyone dares to attack the concubine's child, the concubine will definitely do whatever it takes to deal with her." ”

"Then why do you want to do this to Concubine Xian? Do you know why she is so prejudiced against you? It's because since you entered the palace, I have put all my thoughts on you, as a woman, she is a little jealous and says something excessive, can this make you so painful to kill the killer? ”

Xiao Wanyao raised her eyes and looked at Guo Ping, "That's why the concubines want that kind of free and easy life more, and they don't like to live in this palace, they are deceitful, and they will do whatever it takes to compete for a man's favor, but this man's heart has never been on a woman." ”

Guo Ping gritted his teeth and stared at her, looking at the grief in her eyes, "You will never be satisfied with what I gave you, what else do you want to say?" That's your excuse? Don't you feel like you're doing something wrong? ”

Xiao Wanyao took a deep breath, "The concubine didn't feel that she had done wrong, if the emperor thought that the concubine had done wrong, the concubine was willing to be punished." Saying that, she slowly knelt in front of Guo Ping, although she knelt down, she was still cold and arrogant, and her tone did not make people feel that she was repenting at all.

Guo Ping didn't want to admit that Xiao Wanyao would be such a vicious person, he slowly walked up to her, lifted her chin, and let her look at him head-on, "Why do you want to do this?" Just to compete for favor? ”

"The reason why the concubine is like this is just to follow the rules, the only fault is that she didn't expect such a consequence. Not for favor, but for the concubines themselves. Xiao Wanyao said lightly, but Guo Ping couldn't see a trace of remorse in her eyes.

Guo Ping put his hand on the gurgling sound, as long as she pleaded in front of him, he might be able to forgive her. He already knew the ins and outs of the matter, if Huo Yongdie didn't deliberately provoke Xiao Wanyao, in front of everyone, she wouldn't give her any face, presumably she wouldn't do such a thing.

Therefore, as a queen, she also has extenuating circumstances. It's just that her sentence 'It's not about competing for favor.' But it hurt his self-esteem, he is no longer the identity of the prince, but the ninety-five supreme, but he has nothing to do with his queen.

He grabbed her and pulled her in front of him, glaring at her angrily, "Sue sù me, what am I in your eyes?" Could it be that I have given so much to you, but I can't get your sincerity at all? ”

Xiao Wanyao looked at him like her, and at this moment she really saw through that Guo Pingyuan was not as simple as she thought. Especially in his matter with Xue Tianao, he may hurt the people around him at any time. Especially the person he cares about, the only way is to make him stop caring about himself. Or, after the abolition is actually not bad. R1154
