In the garden behind Jinxiang Palace, there is a little white deer from Zhongyue Mountain in Los Angeles, and has made a home here. The girl who finally returned to her own territory with it in her arms along the way regarded the gift given to her by her brother as a priceless treasure, and cared for it with ten thousand times more care.

In fact, this is a treasure that can be worth the wealth of Allure. When Queen Jiang Xin walked to the back garden under the rising sun and saw the white deer that was carefully fed in Jiang Xue'er's arms, she was very surprised.

As the queen who assisted King Zhao in handling political affairs, Jiang Xin's insight was naturally not comparable to ordinary women in the world. She knows a lot about some of the rumors. She is convinced better than anyone else that the so-called "heavenly signs" and "luck" are not false legends, the rise and fall of dynasties, victory and defeat. It is the concrete embodiment of God's will in the world.

"Is this little thing really the descendant of the white deer in the Zhou Dynasty's Sheji Altar?"

The flower walls are alienated, and the branches and leaves are green. Hearing the voice, Jiang Xue'er raised her head, a look of surprise appeared on her face, and she hurriedly ran over to greet her.

"Mother, why do you have time to come here? It is exactly what we brought back from the Middle State. Look how cute it is! ”

Jiang Xin stretched out his hand and patted Jiang Xue'er, with a doting smile on his face. Of course, this white velvet deer boy is very cute. But that's not what she's focusing on right now.

"Xue'er, Bailu will be handed over to you. You need to feed it well. You know, this matter is very important, but it can't be sloppy at all. ”

According to the queen's own thoughts, she wanted to hand over the white deer to someone specially selected to manage. However, Chu Jiangmian didn't care about telling her that this was a gadget, and it didn't deserve to be taken too seriously at all. Since Cher likes it, let her keep it as a pet herself. Since he said so, Jiang Xin, as the mother of the brother and sister, naturally didn't say anything more. But after all, I was a little uneasy in my heart. Unexpectedly, after Jiang Xue'er heard her instructions, she nodded again and again, and said with a very assured look.

"The queen mother is relieved! Although Cher likes it, she knows that this deer cub is very important. It is related to the future of our Zhao country...... I will definitely be doubly careful and feed it well. There will be no surprises! ”

Seeing her serious appearance, Jiang Xin was slightly stunned, when did Jiang Xue'er become so sensible? But after thinking about it, she was relieved. Of course, this is the credit of his son Chu Jiangmian! It seems that Xue'er went to Zhongzhou once, and although she encountered some dangers, she grew up to be much more sensible.

"Hmmm! Of course, the queen mother believed in my Cher. This matter is so important, it must have been instructed by your brother Jiang Mian, right? ”

"No! After Brother Jiang Mian gave me this fawn, he never said anything more. Mother, these truths were only understood after Sister Qiancheng said it. ”

Jiang Xue'er opened a pair of bright big eyes, and pointed to the woman in a green dress standing not far away in a cheerful tone. However, in a short period of time, Jiang Xueer already liked to get along with her very much. And she believes that the queen mother will also like her.

Queen Jiang Xin finally turned her head and began to look at the woman named Murong Qiancheng seriously. Chu Jiangmian brought back a pair of sisters and brothers from Zhongzhou, and of course this news could not be hidden from her ears. It's just that in a hurry, the son didn't elaborate. She didn't ask either. There are some things and people in this world, she never listens to what others say, but sees it with her own eyes. She believes that her powers of observation trump all else. Anyone with any other purpose can never escape these eyes!

There seems to be a slight stagnation in the air. All the attendants and ladies of the court stayed far away, and no one would dare to approach without the queen's summons. Murong Qiancheng felt the gaze of that gaze, and she felt very uncomfortable.

As the daughter of a nobleman of the Yan Kingdom who had experienced the test of blood and fire, Murong Qiancheng was confident that he could face everything in the world. But at this moment, under the gaze of another pair of beautiful eyes, she felt as sharp as a blade. This Queen of Zhao is really as powerful as the legend!

"Oh, if I'm guessing correctly, you're the woman Jiang Mian brought back from Zhongzhou, right? It's really beautiful! ”

The corners of Queen Jiang Xin's mouth showed a slight smile, and her words were plain and easy-going. But in the scrutinizing gaze of her eyes, there seems to be a power that can see through everything.

"Thank you, Queen, for the compliment. My name is Murong Qiancheng. If the queen doesn't mind, call me a thousand cities. ”

Murong Qiancheng secretly took a breath and reminded himself not to show timidity. But she didn't realize that because of the tension in her heart, her two hands clenched involuntarily. In fact, those eyes only looked at her for a moment, but Qiancheng felt as if everything he was thinking had already been seen through.

"Qiancheng, that's a nice name. As a mother, I want to thank you first, thank you for saving my son Jiang Mian. ”

"Where did the queen come from? We're just a little bit of a stretch...... And there is nothing. ”

"Whatever the reason, this word of thanks is always meant to you. However, if you look at it from the perspective of a queen, I'm curious, why did you decide to follow Jiang Mian to Zhao Kingdom? ”

Jiang Xue'er looked at the queen mother in surprise, she seemed to be asking Qiancheng dialect casually, but she asked so carefully, and the words seemed to have a deep meaning. And Qiancheng's face seemed a little unnatural. However, she did not hesitate and replied softly.

"Because our sister and brother fled from Yan Kingdom, after a long time, it is inevitable that we will miss our hometown. Although due to some unavoidable reasons, he could not return to Yan Kingdom. But if you live as close as possible to your homeland, whenever you miss your hometown, you can look forward to it, and you can be considered a little comforted. ”

"As far as I know, the surname Murong is a royal family in the Yan Kingdom. Qiancheng, your background won't be so simple, right? ”

Queen Jiang Xin stared at her eyes, gentle and sharp. She believes that no one can keep the secrets of their hearts before their eyes. If the other party wants to deceive because he has a special purpose, she will immediately expose it, unceremoniously. No matter what it was or anyone, what personal goals she wanted to achieve with the help of Chu Jiangmian was something she would never tolerate. This is the untouchable bottom line!

Unexpectedly, the woman, whose eyes were still a little flustered just now, suddenly calmed down when she heard her talk about the Yan royal family. She raised her head and met the queen's gaze without the slightest evasion.

"The queen is right! The surname Murong is indeed a big surname in Yan Kingdom. People with this surname are either royal or noble. ”

Hearing her, she did not avoid the question she asked, but indirectly admitted it. The queen was stunned for a moment. The corners of her eyes twitched slightly, and she continued thoughtfully.

"So, what is the origin of the girl from a thousand cities?"

"Queen, I have a request, can I say it now?"

"What request?"

"I want to ask the queen to promise me one thing."

"Oh...... Let's hear it. ”

"I came to the country of Zhao. I don't want to hide my background, and I don't want to deliberately deceive Chu Jiangmian and the queen because of this incident. But just ask for some time, if the time is right...... But if the queen asks, Qiancheng must know everything! ”

The wind blew softly, and there was silence all around. After Murong Qiancheng finished speaking, he stood there calmly, waiting for the queen in front of him, who had great power in the Zhao Kingdom, to be angry or forgive. The green silk hung down, covering half of her face. The green dress was lifted by the wind, and no one understood the sorrow in her heart. If there really is no place for her here, she doesn't know where she and Xiaoli will drift again. And she doesn't know if there is a chance to repay the deep hatred in this life and this life!

Jiang Xue'er, who was holding the little white deer in her arms, looked at the queen mother anxiously, and then looked at Qiancheng. She didn't know what they were talking about, but she was visibly uneasy. The simple-hearted girl secretly looked at the queen's face and whispered.

"Queen Mother, Sister Qiancheng is very good! On the way back from Los Angeles, she was always taking care of me and Brother Jiang Mian. She....... ”

However, before she finished her words, she hurriedly stopped her mouth, not daring to continue pleading. Because, she saw the sternness in the queen mother's eyes. At such a moment, no one dares to touch it casually.

"Alas...... If the queen mother doesn't want Qiancheng to stay in Jinxiang Palace, what can she do? It seems that he can only secretly go to Brother Jiang Mian to help intercede. ”

The girl's secret thoughts, naturally no one paid attention to them. After a long time, Queen Jiang Xin's gaze suddenly softened. Under her gaze, the woman named Murong Qiancheng did not avoid it in the slightest. This made her feel surprised at the same time, and at the same time, a little familiar feeling inexplicably rose. In a moment, she seemed to read something that the weak woman was holding on to in her heart.

"I've never been interested in forcing people to do anything...... Since you don't want to say more, I won't ask more. It can be seen that Cher is very close to you. Then you can stay here. It's just that there is one thing, I hope the girl from Qiancheng can pay attention. ”

"Queen, please command."

"No matter what the situation, please don't hurt my Jiang Mian'er!"

"Queen...... I...... No, it won't! ”

Before the aftermath is over, the people are gone. Murong Qiancheng, who didn't know why he blushed, raised his head again, looking at the queen's distant back, his heart suddenly jumped again.

Why would she say something like that...... Could it be that he already knew the ultimate purpose of coming to Zhao State? However, when it comes to Chu Jiangmian, why is he so flustered? ! ”

The woman, who was thinking wildly and couldn't give up, felt her palm being pulled. The girl's happy voice rang in her ears.

"Sister Qiancheng, the queen mother promised you to stay. That's great......! ”
