Chapter 17: The Past of the Emperor and Empress (3)
The humid wind of Ningguo blew all over the land, although it was winter, but a small half of the territory was borderline, and there was the largest basin in the Hanze continent inland, and after the water vapor evaporated, it could not go out, and it turned into frost and dew, rain and snow fell, and the air remained humid.

Because of the cooling in winter, this dampness is even worse under the cold of winter, and people who do not put braziers in the house will be soaked in dampness and cold, and some women will even freeze into dampness and cold diseases.
The capital is in the north of the center of Ningguo, belongs to the cold zone, although the day before the snow has just cleared, the climate is colder than when it snows, this chill with the invasion of moisture, people have nowhere to hide, for the people who can't afford to wear fur mink fur, the cold is like a knife and axe that penetrates the ice, can be carved into the bones of people.
King Ning's current mood was like this bone-chilling cold, and his heart sank uprightly.
"What did you say?" He was stunned, looked up at Mu Qingrong, as if he didn't hear what she said: "What do you mean that our fate is over?" He muttered again, vaguely understanding, "You want to leave me again?" Want to leave this Ning country? Where are you going? No way! I tell you, you better know that you are not allowed to go anywhere without the permission of the widow! β
The impatient roar carried a kind of impatience, as if if he could stop all this from happening and prevent this woman from escaping from here, he didn't have time to think about anything, he just wanted to use all means to make the woman in front of him retract her mind to leave. Although the more this happens, the farther she is away from himself, he only knows that he can't let go of her, even if she hates herself again, even if his anger and toughness can only trap her people, he has to do it, otherwise he has everything today but can't share it with the woman he loves the most, what's the point of all this?
If this makes her hate herself, then hate it, anyway, hasn't she been hating herself for so many years.
However, Mu Qingrong was not frightened by King Ning's ferocity, she looked at him with heavy eyes, did not change color with his irritability, pointed to the letter in King Ning's hand from a distance, and talked about Fang Cai.
"Let's not talk about this first, you have seen the content of this letter, this is the so-called high-ranking family of the husband you found for Jin'er, don't tell me that you don't know what you said in the letter, even if no one tells you, with the level of the royal family spies, it is easy to understand such a thing. Even if you can't be sure whether the news is absolutely accurate, you should be aware of it, under such conditions, does Your Majesty still think this person is good? β
Song Yucheng's face was ugly when he saw the content of the letter, he knew that he was biased and ignored by Song Jin, and he was already weak-hearted, and he had nothing to say when it was exposed in front of him. Mu Qingrong's words to leave had already made him feel numb, and he couldn't organize any convincing reasons to excuse himself in response to such a question.
"Qingrong is not what you think...... I did hear the inside story of the Han Yan royal family, but I didn't know as much as the letter...... Although the situation in Han Yan is indeed more complicated, what country does not have such a thing,......" King Ning's voice was low, he didn't dare to look directly at the woman, and explained weakly, "Jin'er is bound to marry Qingliu or nobles in the future, isn't this kind of marriage a very normal arrangement for a princessββ"
"Normal? The current Empress Han Yan is not the biological mother of the Prince of Han Yan, the three sons born to the previous queen, the two little princes all died early, only the eldest one remains, the marshal of Han Yan is the brother of the current queen, most of the civil and military generals of the entire Han Yan have obviously taken refuge in the side of the queen, support the abolition of the current prince, support the fourth son of the queen as the prince, Jin'er married in as the daughter-in-law of the former queen, then Han Yan is nothing less than the tiger's den in Longtan for her, you still say that this marriage is good? Li'er is very happy, because you will never let her marry into such a family, and Yu Guifei's careful love, I am very relieved, but Jin'er is my eldest daughter, it doesn't matter if you don't care about her, I can just care, now I will tell Your Majesty that Jin'er will not marry such a family! β
Song Yucheng's sadness provoked by Mu Qingrong diverted her attention from these words, he glared at the queen in disbelief, and retorted in a deep voice: "How is it possible! Prince Han Yan has been sent to our country, and the two ceremonial officials exchanged the eight characters and Geng posts of the two, and now the whole world knows that the two of them are going to marry, you say cancel, how to cancel? Isn't it ridiculous and generous, so that the lords of all countries in the world will laugh at the treachery of the royal family? β
Someone outside the door was talking to Rong Yu, and the voice came faintly, as if there was something to come in and return to the queen, but the two people in the room didn't seem to have heard it, they were glaring at each other, and they didn't give in to each other.
After a while, the sound outside the door disappeared, and it should be Rongyu who arranged people to wait in the side hall, and the silence around them returned to death.
For a long time, Mu Qingrong's eyes fell, she laughed as if she was self-deprecating for a while, no longer confronted King Ning with tension, and sighed lightly: "Ah Cheng, in fact, since many years ago, you are the real you." Actually, it's not that you've changed, it's that I've never seen you clearly. β
"Eighteen years ago, I went to Qianzhou Pass to find you with a sense of grievance and hope, and I beg you to help me take revenge, help me save my relatives, and help me. And you, imprison me here for eighteen years at a time, and don't let me go out, or I will see anyone outside the palace. Do you think I don't know that Jin'er was surrounded by masters before she was ten years old? You know I can't live without her, and to catch her is to control me. It is only today that I understand that no one else can compare to your ambition in your heart. You have always thought about yourself, touch your conscience and speak, you say that you have a deep affection for me, but in fact, you are just using my existence to convince yourself, you are not a person who is selfish to the extreme. β
"Enough! I won't let you say any more, no one will allow you! Song Yucheng was like an antelope that had been stabbed, jumped up suddenly, reached out and brushed off the teacup on the table, Mu Qingrong's words were like a needle, piercing into the part of himself that he had carefully hidden to the deepest part of himself for so many years, he didn't want to see, didn't want to hear, and didn't want to be exposed by anyone. He walked up and down the house like a raging beast.
He wanted to say something, but he was speechless, he became more and more angry, walked a few laps, he took a few deep breaths, sat down, and rubbed his forehead with one arm on the table. In recent years, the migraine has become more and more serious, as long as I am a little emotional, there is a place above my head that jumps suddenly.
He rubbed tiredly, slowly calmed down, and after a while, a low voice sounded: "So, you broke with me because of Jin'er's marriage and wanted to leave the palace?" β
"No", Mu Qingrong still leaned slightly on the side of the warm couch, and did not look up, she looked at the teacup in her hand, and the soft voice seemed to dissipate in the air when a gust of wind came.
"I've been preparing for this for a long time, just waiting for an opportunity, and now, this opportunity has come, and you and I can't stop it."
