Chapter 068: Confrontation

In Jingren Palace, the fire is burning, the queen mother holds the stove in one hand and holds the incense cheeks in the other, half lying on the soft couch to rest, the incense burner on the table is burning with soothing incense, and is spitting out curling green smoke......

The palace maid Minhui knelt on the ground and rubbed her calves for the queen, there was a slight sound of footsteps outside the door, she turned her head to look, and saw Tian Rong's father-in-law come in, so she made a silent gesture, and only said when Tian Rong got closer: "The queen is tired, just fell asleep......"

Tian Rong nodded: "His Royal Highness came back late, it's not easy to persuade him, and he is waiting at the door......

"But...... Niangniang just fell asleep ...... "Before Minhui's words were finished, she felt that the queen's body moved slightly, and while the two were talking, the queen woke up.

"Coming back? Did the people bring it? The queen mother still squinted, and asked softly with her lips lightly. Tian Rong hurriedly stepped forward and knelt on the ground and responded: "Back to the queen, the second highness has come down and is waiting at the door......

"Hmm...... Let him in......"

"Yes......" Tian Rong said and retreated.

Min Hui stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Niangniang...... Do you use some tea? The queen mother said "um", her voice became more and more lazy, her eyes were still closed, Minhui poured the tea, and just when she was about to present it, Leng Yang walked in with Tian Rong.

"The son asks the queen mother to be safe...... I don't know what's the important matter of calling my sons in the middle of the night? Leng Yang knelt on the ground and saluted.

The queen mother stretched out a hand, and Minhui hurriedly stepped forward to help her sit up. "Get up...... Came back so late ......."

"Empress Xie's mother......" Leng Yang stood up and continued: "The princess of the Kelan Kingdom invited me to swim with my eldest brother on the lake and boat, but it was difficult to delay my enthusiasm...... What is the important thing about the queen mother? Need your son to come late at night to discuss? ”

The queen mother took the tea presented by Hui Hui, pinched the tea lid with her slender jade fingers, stroked the tea soup, and gently plucked the tea leaves in the cup, and the tea was fragrant......

The queen said with a smile: "This tea is the edelweiss paid tribute by the Kolan country, the tea leaves stretch like edelweiss, and there is a dense layer of white mist when it is first brewed, and it needs to be soaked in this jade cup to bring out its color, fragrance and taste......"

"Erchen doesn't understand...... If the queen mother has something to say, she might as well say it directly...... "Seeing that the queen mother was in a hurry to call herself, but she only said something innocuous and trivial, Leng Yang couldn't help but feel a little irritable.

"Doesn't the emperor understand what the queen mother means?" The queen mother took a sip of tea as she spoke, looked up at Leng Yang lightly, Leng Yang hugged her fists and bowed her head and responded: "I don't know, I also ask the queen mother to ...... it."

"The meaning of the queen mother is very simple, a good horse with a good saddle ......"

As soon as these words came out, Leng Yang immediately understood what she meant, and couldn't help but feel disgusted again: "Which single surname woman is the queen mother going to introduce to me?" ”

"Yang'er, don't be so resistant, the queen mother is for your good, and you have seen Yu Ning just now...... Such a young and beautiful woman will definitely be able to help you unify the six palaces in the future, the two of you are really a match made in heaven......"

Leng Yang's head was exposed, and this was the result of guessing, the queen couldn't help but be anxious again, she had just met with Shan Yuning, so she called herself to discuss the marriage, and the resistance in her heart was particularly strong: "Queen Mother, I don't think about Princess Yuning, and I ask the Queen Mother not to speculate at will......"

"A woman like Yu Ning, how many princes and nobles have snatched their heads, do you still have to be picky?"

"Queen Mother...... It's not that the princess is bad, it's that the retainer is not worthy of the princess......" Leng Yang strongly retorted.

"Nonsense, where is the son of this palace unworthy of others! Yang'er, don't be willful, the queen mother will naturally take care of the marriage for you, but you also need to be careful...... You can't just rely on the queen mother to do it in such a hurry! ”

Leng Yang's eyebrows twisted together and said: "Queen Mother, although I am not disgusted with Princess Yuning, but I don't have the slightest love between men and women, you mess up the mandarin duck spectrum like this, and the most harmful thing is the happiness of the princess's life!" ”

"Yu Ning, this kid is well-behaved and sensible, and she naturally understands her mission and responsibility, and she is the best candidate for the future queen...... This matter is so decided, you can't resist it! The queen was also in a hurry, and the teacup was pressed heavily on the table, and the tea overflowed......

"The Queen Mother! What are you calling me for such unreasonableness? From childhood to adulthood, it's all up to you, whatever you say, and you've never given me a chance to choose! This time too! I don't want to marry a loveless woman by my side! Even if she wants to impose it on me, I won't touch her at all! Rather than being a widow like this, it is better to dispel this idea as soon as possible! Leng Yang was anxious, and his words were aggressive.

"You rebel! He didn't even listen to the queen mother, did he? Wings stiffened, huh? The queen mother was also anxious, straightened up and scolded angrily, and Minhui on the side hurriedly stepped forward to comfort: "The queen mother is angry...... The Second Highness must have been confused for a moment to contradict the mother like this......"

"Get out of the way! Where is your turn to speak! As soon as the queen shook her hand, she threw a loud slap on Minhui's face...... Five fingerprints immediately appeared on Minhui's face, and she hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "Niangniang spare her life, the slave doesn't dare to talk more......"

"Queen Mother, you are so angry with a palace maid, is this what the queen of the country should do?" As soon as Leng Yang's words came out, Tian Rong on the side was shocked and sweated, and hurriedly stepped forward and pulled the sleeve of the Second Highness and whispered, "Second Highness...... Say less...... The mother is getting up......"

Leng Yang pulled back his sleeve and ignored Tian Rong, at this time, the queen mother had already come down from the soft couch and walked straight to Leng Yang: "Repeat what you just said again?" ”

"Why not! You are so angry with a palace maid, it is not what the queen of Wanqing Kingdom should do......" Before the words were finished, a loud slap slapped Leng Yang's cheek...... Suddenly, a hot pain struck, Leng Yang turned his head to stare at the queen mother in front of him and sneered: "You are really the mother of the world!" ”

"Rebel! Unfilial son!! In vain, I gave birth to you and raised you for so many years, and you are so disobedient to this palace! Seeing that the situation was becoming more and more uncontrollable, Tian Rong's father-in-law hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the queen's mother and persuaded her: "Niangniang is angry...... Don't hurt the phoenix body......"

"What? Am I not right? Leng Yang was still glaring and almost wanted to resist, but Tian Rong hurriedly ran over and persuaded: "Second Highness, just say a few words...... The queen is also for your good...... Besides, Niangniang has been very weak recently, and she always can't sleep at night, if you continue to make trouble like this, if something happens, you will regret it too late......"

As soon as Tian Rong said this, Leng Yang's irritable mood eased a little, and he saw that the queen mother was holding her chest and panting, her face was pale, and she seemed to be really uncomfortable, so she realized that she was really a little excessive, and she drank a lot of wine on the boat today, although she was not guilty, but she did speak a little.

Thinking of this, Leng Yang saluted and said: "The queen mother rests, the sons and daughters will retire first...... "After that, he didn't wait for the queen mother to answer, so he turned around and left."

The queen was so angry that she wanted to chase after her, but was stopped by Tian Rong: "Niangniang...... Let him go, you put out the fire first, this kind of thing is not to be rushed...... If he doesn't agree, we naturally have other ways to make him agree, why bother to make such a fuss, hurt the phoenix body, the minions can't afford it......"

"Oh? Is there any other way you can make this stubborn donkey change his mind? The queen mother came and asked softly.

"There is naturally a way, but it is not bright enough...... Tian Rong smiled evilly, and said a few words in his ear to the queen's mother, and the queen's face suddenly showed a smile.

"Very good, just according to the arrangement you said......"

"Yes!" Tian Rong responded, and the evil smile on the corner of his mouth became thicker and thicker.
