Mo Ziyu couldn't sleep well in her sleep, and in her sleep, she couldn't sleep steadily, dreaming that Mulan City was broken, the people were displaced again, and the fire twenty years ago once again surrounded the palace.

The fire was so big that half of the sky was red, and she stood on the edge of the fire at a loss.

She woke up from her sleep, soaking wet.

It was already dark, and there was only a dimly lit candle in the room.

It turned out to be a nightmare!

Mo Ziyu took a few deep breaths, calmed down, felt very thirsty in his mouth, and was about to get out of bed to drink water, but he saw that there was a person next to the bed who was taking a nap, his brows were furrowed, obviously even in his sleep, it was not a good dream.

Mo Ziyu observed Liu Xu's sleeping face, stretched out a finger, and gently pressed his eyebrows.

At this time, Liu Xu suddenly raised her hand and held her hand, she couldn't pull it out, and sat a little stiffly.

Liu Xu slowly raised his body and smiled at Mo Ziyu with sleepy eyes: "Awake?"

Mo Ziyu nodded: "I want to drink water." ”

Liu Xu rubbed his eyes, then got up, poured a glass of water on the table, handed it to Mo Ziyu's hand, and said softly: "Drink." ”

Mo Ziyu lowered his eyes and held the water glass: "Why are you here?"

"I'm with you. Liu Xu said naturally, "Just like when I was recuperating in Mulan, you took care of me day and night." ”

He looked at the beads of sweat on Mo Ziyu's forehead, took out a square towel, wiped it for her, and asked softly: "Have you had a nightmare?" It's all over, with me here, don't be afraid of anything." ”

"Go back. Mo Ziyu said, "Whether you return to the battlefield or the capital, you are needed more there." ”

"What about you?" asked Liu Xu.

"Now that Mulan's crisis has been lifted, you are no longer needed here!" Mo Ziyu said lightly, "I am very grateful for you to be here, and I am very touched that you can come here in person." ”

"You want to drive me away when you run out? Liu Xu smiled and pinched Mo Ziyu's nose affectionately, "I plan to leave after dawn." ”

"Hmm. Mo Ziyu was still blowing his eyes, and the shadow of his eyelashes left an irregular pattern on his face, "Xie Xuan's matter, I'm sorry." ”

Liu Xu raised his eyebrows: "I'm sorry for what?"

"She's your queen, I just want to help Changqing deal with the crisis at that time, I don't want to force her to death. Mo Ziyu said.

"I understand. Liu Xu held Mo Ziyu's hand and sighed softly, "Don't think too much about the affairs of Northern Xia, you just need to know that you have helped me a lot, not only me and Changqing, but all the people of Northern Xia will be grateful to you." It's still early, so you can sleep a little longer. ”

"Nope. Mo Ziyu got up and said, "I'm almost asleep, go see how the wounded soldiers are doing." By the way, how are you recovering?"

Liu Xu smiled slightly, lifted his sleeves, and handed his wrist to Mo Ziyu: "Don't you know when you touch it?"

Mo Ziyu gave him a pulse: "The recovery is not bad, I still have to continue to take the medicine I gave you, but the frequency can be reduced." Slowly adjust, your body will return to normal. ”

"Can't I still believe in your medical skills?" Liu Xu said with a smile, "But my palm is not in vain, and I will always get it back from Tuoba Yu." Aren't you going to see the wounded soldiers? Go ahead, I'll say goodbye to you here, but we'll see you again, and I'll take Changqing to see you when the dog is over. ”

"My father and brother ...... You have to take care of them!" Mo Ziyu advised.

Liu Xu hooked his lips and smiled: "My father-in-law and eldest brother, I will naturally take more care of them, don't worry, when the war here is over, I will immediately organize my troops to support." ”

"Who is your father-in-law's uncle!Phew, it's shameless!" Mo Ziyu took a sip and left with a slight blush.

Liu Xu looked at her somewhat shy back and laughed heartily, he hadn't been so happy for a long time.

Mo Ziyu continued to treat the wounds of the wounded, originally the sudden attack of Nanchu was partly caused by her, but with the arrival of victory and the fact that she had always been hands-on with the wounded soldiers, these dissatisfaction slowly disappeared.

"With good cultivation, the wound will heal. Mo Ziyu said, "Don't worry about your family's life, we won't let them starve." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Most of the wounded had already been accommodated, and Mo Ziyu turned around and left without missing anything.

"Liu Xu is gone. ”

Situ Jiexing and Qin Yi were resting in the house, these days, the two of them were also extremely tired, and they basically didn't close their eyes very much.

"Oh. Mo Ziyu looked at the room and replied with a little disappointment, "How are you resting?"

"Very good. Situ Jiexing stretched, "I finally got a good night's sleep, comfortable." ”

"What are you doing with me?" Mo Ziyu said with a smile, "The current crisis is temporarily lifted, you can walk around and relax." ”

"The matter here is over temporarily, what are you going to do next?" Situ Jiexing asked, "Let's continue to travel the rivers and lakes?"

Mo Ziyu shook his head gently: "I still have some things, I'm afraid that I can't hold it anymore, and I'm about to start a war against Northern Xia, you also know who Northern Xia is leading the troops, I have to go over and take a look." ”

"What didn't the three of us experience together?" Situ Juexing said with a smile, "What's more, we will accompany you to expel the dog Rong and say what the people of the Central Plains should do, Xiaoyi, what do you think?"

Qin Yi said coldly: "I don't have any opinion. ”

Mo Ziyu sat down in front of the two of them, looked at them and said, "I have dragged you for several years, and you have been by my side all these years, and I always feel a little sorry for you." ”

"If you were still friends, don't say these sour things. Situ Juexing said, "It's so decided." However, Mulan also suffered a lot of losses this time, and many people were affected, so you have to deal with things here. ”

"I understand. ”

After dawn, Mo Ziyu found Qi Qi and the matchmaker.

"I've brought you here this time to talk about what happened three years ago. Mo Ziyu said.

"What's the matter?" asked Qi Qi with a frown.

"I will give you the throne. Mo Ziyu said, "Three years ago, you were worried that your prestige was not enough, so you let me continue to be a nominal queen, and now you led the reinforcements back to rescue Mulan and solve Mulan's crisis, but it is a great achievement for Mulan." As for me, Mulan's crisis this time is also because of me, and I can't escape the blame, so I think now is a good time, and I want to hear your opinions. ”

The matchmaker had almost guessed what Mo Ziyu wanted to say, so she was very calm, and she had accepted this result in the past three years.

"Since Your Majesty has made up your mind, the minister has no opinion. ”

Mo Ziyu looked at Qi Qi with a smile again: "What about you?"

"The minister has no opinion. ”

"That's good!" Mo Ziyu got up and breathed a sigh of relief, "Tidy it up, let's go back to the palace in the next two days and get this Zen ceremonial ceremony done!"

At the same time, Mi Zi evacuated Mulan in embarrassment, and at this moment he was resting in place with the army.

"Your Majesty, this is the battle report that just came. Hao Ding handed a letter to Qi Zi.

"Stupid!" Seeing the battle report, Qi Zi scolded, "Qian Lingyan, this idiot, if you send troops like this, you will definitely lose." ”

"So what should we do now?" Hao Ding asked.

"Minimize wastage. "Mi Zi's sanity has finally come back a little," quickly gave Ge Cai an order to withdraw to the customs for the time being. ”

"What about Western Wei?" Hao Ding asked.

"Qian Lingyan is stubborn and self-serving, at this time, those who have been defeated repeatedly must be red-eyed, can they still listen to other people's opinions clearly? If we don't withdraw, will we stay and wait for death with him?" Qi Zi said coldly, "Do what I want, as for us to go back first, the situation in the DPRK and China is undecided, if the news of the defeated army comes back, I don't know what will happen." ”

"Yes. ”

Subsequently, Qi Zi led the people to hurry back, and when he returned to Linyuan, it was already six days later.

"Your Majesty, you are back. Sun Tai's hair turned white, "Your Majesty has returned safely, and the minister is relieved." ”

Looking at Sun Tai's white hair, Qi Zi suddenly remembered Sun Pingling, these days he deliberately forget, deliberately not to remember, he thought that he would not be affected, but he didn't expect that the moment he thought of her, his heart still contracted suddenly, as if he was being grabbed tightly, making him hurt and couldn't get through.

"Ahh

"Your Majesty!" the people around him hurriedly stepped forward to help him up.

Qi Zi pushed the people around him away, grabbed Sun Tai's arm, widened his red eyes, swallowed his saliva, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Where is the imperial concubine?"

Sun Tai burst into tears, clenched his fists and said, "Your Majesty, the body of the imperial concubine is placed in the palace, and we will wait for Your Majesty to come back before we will do the funeral." ”

Mo Ziyu hurriedly ran towards the dormitory where Sun Pingling lived before his death.

At this time, a white banner in the palace was summoning, all of which were talking about the sad fact that had happened.

He ran to the gate of the palace, and the cries of the palace ladies were heard inside, and he took a deep breath and slowly stepped forward.

"See Your Majesty!"

"I've seen Your Majesty!"

Qi Zi couldn't hear any other sounds, and all he could see was the brand-new coffin and the spiritual seat that stopped at the front.

He stretched out his hand tremblingly, touched the three words "Sun Pingling" on the spiritual seat, and then walked to the side of the coffin, wanting to open the coffin.

Several palace people immediately came over to stop him, knelt in front of him and begged: "Your Majesty, the imperial concubine has passed away for many days, and now the body should have begun to decay, and the coffin cannot be opened!"

"Get out of here, all of you!"

"Your Majesty, the imperial concubine doesn't want her to be so dilapidated in His Majesty's heart. The palace people cried and begged, "Please Your Majesty for the sake of the dignity of the imperial concubine, don't open the coffin! The imperial concubine has loved Your Majesty all her life, and she must hope that Your Majesty will remember her most beautiful appearance." ”

"She has loved me all her life?" Qi Zi was slightly stunned, "Yes, she has loved me all her life." ”

Her love is so forbearant that he can ignore it with peace of mind.

knew that she didn't want to be a concubine, but in order to balance the queen, she still disregarded her wishes and made her a concubine.

But he didn't have any of the gentleness that a husband should have, he just regarded her as a courtier who fought side by side, and never loved her as his own woman.

But his neglect, he deliberately ignored it, she accepted it all, and did her best to complete her duties without complaining.

He was so sure that she would always be by his side, but she still caught her off guard.

Jiang Liu once said that he regretted it only when he lost it, and he now clearly knows the meaning of this sentence.

Why did she have to find out that she had already become an indispensable person after losing it?

Qi Zi silently closed his eyes, tears slowly crossed, so many regrets, so many regrets, all welled up in his heart, making him feel painful.

"Father!" a crisp and loud voice came.

Mi Zi opened her eyes and saw a pink-carved doll running over in filial piety clothes.

He hugged his father's thigh: "Father, you're back, I miss you so much! Father, the son wants to tell you something, don't be angry with the son! The mother concubine should be because the son is too naughty and angry with the son and hides and refuses to see the son, father, you help the son to persuade the mother concubine, let the mother concubine be angry, okay? The son promised that he would never be naughty again. ”

Qi Zi squatted down and held the child in his arms.

"Father, why are you crying like them? Is someone bullying you? You tell your son, and your son will help you avenge!"

"The mother went to a far place. ”

"Will the concubine come back, and will I be able to see the concubine again?"

Qi Zi paused and said, "Yes, we will see the mother concubine!"

"That's good. ”

At this time, the nurse stepped forward and hugged the eldest prince.

Qi Zi touched the tears on his face and summoned Sun Tai.

"Are you sure that the imperial concubine was killed by the queen?" asked Qi Zi.

"The old minister didn't dare to bully the king. Sun Tai clenched his fists and said, "At that time, the queen announced that the imperial concubine died violently, and was eager to bury the imperial concubine, and the old minister followed the queen's wishes, first let the imperial concubine enter the ground, so that the queen relaxed her vigilance, and then the old minister tortured the imperial forest army that day to protect the imperial concubine, and they admitted that they saw the queen kill the imperial concubine's maid, and the maids shouted that the imperial concubine was strangled to death by the queen. This is the testimony of the Imperial Guards. ”

Later, the queen was controlled by the old minister, in order to prevent the imperial concubine from dying in vain, the old minister made the decision, dug out the coffin of the imperial concubine, opened the coffin for autopsy, and sure enough, a tear stain was found on the neck of the imperial concubine. It is conclusive that it was indeed the queen who killed the imperial concubine. ”
