Not to mention how Xiao Jinxuan was anxious, but she rushed back to Zhaoyang Hall to change the palace clothes with a very steady face.

Just said that this would be feared by the other party, so Shen Wenqing and Empress Chen both ate the closed door, and Xue Yi, the Empress Dowager of the East Palace, who was helpless at all.

She is now calm and relaxed, standing in the main hall of Fengxiang Palace with a thousand demeanors.

With one hand, she caressed the dazzling and dazzling statue in front of her, which was like a coral tree like a red jade that Yeying paid tribute to, and the smile on the corner of her mouth was even more graceful.

Empress Xue was born in the Prime Minister's family, and she has been on the phoenix seat for decades, and now she has precipitated the dignity and elegance.

Even if Concubine Liang is now the Empress Dowager of the West Palace, it is extremely difficult to surpass Empress Xue in this regard.

And looking at Empress Xue's demeanor of stroking the red coral, he stood on the other side of the coral tree and entered the harem on the pretext of offering a secret recipe.

I can see this Yeying monarch, and now he will completely ignore the precious coral tree in front of him.

His eyes were unabashedly and directly fixed on Xue Hou's body from beginning to end, as if he wanted to imprint the other party's smile and smile deeply in his mind.

And don't look at Empress Xue, she has never glanced at Fujiwara Xiu, but she has been up and down in the harem for decades, and she has long been trained to grasp everything around her at all times.

Therefore, after seeing that Empress Xue withdrew the hand that touched the coral, and took a sip of the fragrant tea handed by Zuo Wen, he immediately said without raising his head:

"Yeying Monarch, since your recipe for maintaining corals has now been delivered to the hands of Ben Hou. If nothing else, you can leave. After all, as the monarch of Fanbang, it is not appropriate for you to meet this queen alone. The Empress Dowager of the West Palace, and Concubine Shen have already come to make trouble, I don't want to disturb the harem because of you, isn't it the sin of the queen. ”

But when he heard Empress Xue's words, he saw that Fujiwara Xiu not only did not mean to step away, but laughed a few times in a low voice, and then said unhurriedly:

"Xue Yi, you and I are old friends. Just a good concubine who has been suppressed by you for many years, and now she is the queen mother of the West. plus a little concubine who can't make a climate, where can they get you. I entered the palace in person today, in fact, you should know that I didn't come here simply to offer the secret recipe. Ambushed Zhou Xianyu, but did not kill the other party, I do owe you an inescapable fault. And Benjun also hopes that this matter will not become an obstacle to our cooperation, after all, you can't do without Yeying's secret help, and Benjun is also indispensable for the assistance of the resources and weapons you provide. Therefore, we still have to work closely with each other, so I think it is the best choice. ”

Gently put the teacup in his hand on the coffee table on the side, and then Xue Hou looked up at Fujiwara Xiu.

Immediately after that, a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes, and her tone was also cold:

"Fujiwara-kun, since you are talking about business after you come to the same book, then I, Xue Yi, will also tell you straight to the point. It's because you failed to kill Zhou Xianyu last time, so that the other party was lucky and returned to Da Zhou unharmed. So later, my son Xiantai's forced palace to ascend the throne was greatly affected. Now my only son who can compete for the throne is dead, and the queen is almost trapped in the harem, **** is oppressed and restrained by Xiao Jinxuan's little slut. After all, this is all your Ye Ying's harm, such a stupid and useless ally, what do I Xue Yi want you to do! ”

Empress Xue's eyes were not only gloomy, but every word she said was even more full of dissatisfaction and anger.

But Fujiwara Xiu on the side didn't annoy or defend himself, but his eyes looked at Xue Hou's raised face with a slight obsession, and said in his mouth:

"Yi'er, we really haven't seen each other for decades, I remember when I was still a prince, I sent Da Zhou to meet you by chance in the market. At that time, you entangled with the vendor for a string of red coral bracelets for a long time, just because you, the young lady of the Prime Minister's house, sneaked out to play, but forgot to bring the silver taels, and could only watch the bracelet in a hurry but couldn't buy it. I, Osamu Fujiwara, will never forget how bright and agile you were at that time. From the first time I saw you, I was fascinated by your smile and smile. As long as there is your place, it is difficult to take my eyes off it. ”

Originally, Empress Xue, who was still angry because Zhou Xianyu was not dead and blamed Yeying, heard Fujiwara Xiu suddenly talk about the past.

Immediately, her expression was slightly stunned, and then a trace of melancholy and trance flashed in her eyes.

Then he raised his right hand and stroked his cheek, and said with a hint of vicissitudes and tiredness in his voice:

"Decades have passed, and Benhou is no longer the reckless little girl who caught you and borrowed money from Fujiwara-kun regardless of it. And now I am old and decrepit, and I have spent my whole life in this harem. The endless calculation of chips may indeed be physically and mentally exhausting in the future. But the sea was once difficult to turn into water, and the past was wiped away like a cloud of smoke. Since we can't go back to that age, there's no need to talk about the past. ”

Fujiwara Xiu saw that Empress Xue, who had been looking cold since he came to Fengxiang Palace today, finally showed a trace of melancholy on his face.

Fujiwara Shu, who has been infatuated with Xue Yi all his life and has never forgotten each other even now, saw that he would stroke the coral tree on the side with one hand, and his mouth was full of affection:

"Yi'er, depending on what you say, in my eyes, whether it has been ten years, twenty years, or thirty years. You are still that little girl Xue Yi, even if you later abandoned me and chose to enter the palace to become the queen of the Great Zhou, and now you are the queen mother of the East Palace. But Benjun still hasn't forgotten that you like red jade coral, so over the years, all the congratulatory gifts sent by Yeying have always been indispensable to red jade coral. Others only think that the sea is rich in corals at night, but they don't know that in fact, every time the corals sent to Da Zhou are carefully selected by Benjun himself. Just so that one or two of them can get into your eyes and be worn by you, so I can be regarded as sending my love for you to Yi'er's side. ”

Since Xue Yi entered the palace, because the power of his mother's prime minister's mansion has become more and more prosperous at that time.

So in Emperor Ming's husband, all she got was vigilance and endless damage.

The child was forcibly knocked out, and Emperor Ming resolutely stated that the prince must not flow the blood of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and at that moment Xue Hou fell into infinite despair.

Later, he was forced to raise Zhou Xiantai, a child who had no blood relationship with her, even if he thought that he had sacrificed so much for the royal family, Xue Yi would silently think in his heart that Emperor Ming would naturally think of her good, at least give her more respect and grace.

But as Princess Daliang Huangfu Yingyue entered the palace and became a concubine, Empress Xue understood what it meant to be favored by three thousand.

And she also began to stay alone in the empty and dark dormitory for countless lonely nights, sitting all night, and many times she would not close her eyes and sleep for a while even in the morning.

His own flesh and blood were cruelly and forcibly drained, and he had to raise a bloodless child for the sake of the stability of the royal family, and Xue Yi endured all this.

But after looking at her being bruised all over her body, Emperor Ming gave all his heart to Concubine Rou.

Even Xue Yi had warned himself that as the master of the harem, he should be virtuous and generous, and he could not be jealous.

But she couldn't control her resentment, and eventually fell deeper and deeper into the lingering jealousy.

But in the end, in the past few decades, how ruthless and iron-blooded she is, she is still a woman.

And she is a woman who hates because she longs for her husband's love and affection and can't be satisfied.

So Empress Xue longed for something that she couldn't get from Emperor Ming all her life.

Now that I heard that the man Fujiwara Xiu, even though they are separated by two countries, but the other party has done so much for her silently, Empress Xue's heart is naturally touched.

Because of the failure of Yeying's ambush, this matter that made Empress Xue linger seems to be less important now.

Seeing Empress Xue, who had sealed her heart for too long, looking at the red jade coral in front of her, she couldn't help but sigh lightly and said:

"Fujiwara-kun, you said that if I was willing to give up my identity and elope, what would you and I be like now? For the sake of the family, for the glory of my Xue family. It was also because the Great Zhou Fengwei had a fatal attraction to me, so it was I who let go of your hand at that time. But when I became the mother of a nation, I found that this queen throne was not what I really wanted. Maybe I should have left with you in the first place, but sometimes I missed the opportunity, and I couldn't go back again in my life. ”

After listening to Empress Xue's words, Fujiwara Xiu couldn't help but have a trace of sadness flashing in his eyes.

He will never forget when he was in the Great Zhou, when he learned that Empress Xue was going to marry Emperor Ming and become the queen, he felt that the sky had collapsed.

And that Fujiwara Xiu was even willing to give up the identity of the prince of Yeying, and just wanted to elope with Empress Xue and leave the Great Zhou, and from then on, the great heaven and earth would stay for life, and they should not be separated.

But Fujiwara Shu never thought that Xue Yi, who had made a mountain alliance with him and promised to only be his bride in this life, did not come as promised when he prepared everything in the end.

In the end, Fujiwara Xiu, who had been waiting for seven days in the agreed place, left Da Zhou alone on the day he married into the palace under Empress Xue's wedding.

Although the two of them still exchanged letters because of their cooperation and alliance, they could not see each other again until today.

Even if Empress Xue is indeed deceased now, he can see that the other party has expressed his feelings.

Fujiwara Shu couldn't help but step forward excitedly, and he couldn't help but hold the other party's hand, and then said with firm eyes:

"It's not too late, we still have a choice for each other. As long as you are willing, now that the new emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty has ascended the throne, the foundation is not stable, and it is not impossible for this monarch to find a way to take you away. After all, you can cheat to death, and as long as you are willing to be the queen mother, I am willing to take you back to Yeying and send all the red jade corals of the whole country to you. We've missed it for decades, and in the rest of my life, I hope that the person who will be by my side can be you. ”

Just when Fujiwara Xiu saw a trace of tears and emotion flashing in Xue Hou's eyes, he was overjoyed in his heart, and he immediately said something sincere in his mouth, so as to completely impress the other party.

But at this moment, the door of the main hall was pushed open from the outside.

Then he saw that he was guarding outside, and Empress Xue's henchmen looked a little bad and said anxiously:

"Queen Mother, Concubine Xiao of Zhaoyang Palace is here. The minions have already said that you are not feeling well, and now you are receiving distinguished guests from Fanbang, and you have no time to meet others. But the other party did not leave directly like the Empress Dowager Xi and Concubine Shen, but brought a royal doctor, and wanted to come in to ask the other party for peace on the grounds that he was worried about Concubine Xue's pregnancy. Although the slaves and maids stopped them, the other party still broke into Fengxiang Palace. ”
