At this moment, in the banquet hall of Yongyang Palace, Zha Jiang had told Li Yao everything that happened by the small pond, although Li Yao's face did not change, but Zha Jiang saw that the bone knot on the hand he was holding was white and trembling slightly, and he knew that he had moved his true anger.

"Did she really help Jiao Xiao up?"

"Yes. ”

"You didn't hear a word of what the two of them said?"

"It's far away, and Weichen really can't hear it, but Weichen can see it clearly, and the queen's expression is indeed sad and joyful. ”

"Sudden sorrow and joy......" Li Yao's heart seemed to be gently scratched by someone with a needle, again and again, no blood, but it hurt a lot, "She has a lot of sorrow and joy for widows." ”

Zha Jiang didn't speak, just stood quietly beside Li Yao, and at that time, the people in the banquet hall had been sent down, only rows of candles were swaying slightly, shaking the turbidity and dimness of the night, and also shaking the hearts of people who were difficult to distinguish. Suddenly, Li Yao squinted his eyes slightly and looked at Zha Jiang, and said word by word: "Zha Jiang, can the widow believe you?"

"Your Majesty can believe in Zha Jiang as much as you believe in your own eyes. Without a hint of hesitation, Zha Jiang knelt down on his knees, clasped his hands on his chest and touched the ground with his forehead. He is a man from the Jungle, and this salute is also a salute in the Jungle Army, and Li Yao quietly looked at his dark neck and broad back, and finally sighed silently: "I shouldn't have asked you like this." ”

"You shouldn't call yourself 'me'. Your Majesty, you are now the Emperor, and you should call yourself a 'widow'. ”

Now the widow really feels that he has become a lonely person. Li Yao let go of his clenched fist and slapped twice on the armrest of the dragon chair, "You and the widow came out of the jungle army together, climbed over the pile of dead people together, gnawed the bark of trees together and drank human urine, and tasted death together, you also know why the widow changed his heart." The widow should have believed you, but the end of Fu Jiang's incident, the widow was really unexpected, and the eldest princess collapsed because of this, and even the queen hated the widow because of this, she said that the widow designed everything, and the eyes wanted to eat people - but the widow's original intention was not so, Zha Jiang, you know that the widow is unwilling to share with the queen. ”

"Fu Jiang's incident, it was Zha Jiang's negligence, I originally thought that he was going to come to the palace banquet to make a big fuss and simply let him in, but I didn't realize that he actually carried a soft sword into the palace, this matter is Zha Jiang's fault, but His Majesty was misunderstood by the queen's mother, Zha Jiang should die!"

"The widow really can't figure it out, just for that Yao Jin, she is so resentful of the widow, she doesn't even care about the dragon fetus in her womb, and spends all day and night in that Chenghuan Xiaozhu!"

"Your Majesty has always been concerned about the Queen Mother in his heart in the past no matter what kind of inhuman torture and suffering he has experienced in the dense forest. Now, the queen mother has shocked the eldest princess just for a subordinate who should have died, and the eldest princess is not in danger of life now - at this point, the minister is also puzzled. ”

"No, you don't understand her...... She has always been such a person," Li Yao had a bitter and gentle smile on his face, "In her heart, they are all the same important, and no one can be hurt......"

In order to make the queen happy, His Majesty not only arranged for Wang Xiang and others to enter the palace, but also asked Jiao Xiao to come to Yongyang Hall to meet him. The minister thought that His Majesty's kindness to the queen should not be harmed in any way. ”

I will not be hurt by anyone again, because anyone who can hurt me, will be eliminated by me...... Li Yao's gaze slowly deepened, he put away the fragility on his face, and replaced it with that elusive calm, "Prime Minister Wang, are they coming to Beijing soon?"

"The carriage and horses will arrive in the capital tomorrow. As long as His Majesty orders it, the minister can arrange for them to enter the palace. ”

"Don't rush yet. When the widow personally visits the eldest princess tomorrow and tells her the good news in person, if she can get up and kneel on the ground to thank her, you will let them enter the palace again. ”

"Then if the eldest princess can't-"

"If she still hasn't sobered up, the widow doesn't care about wasting the widow's kindness one more time!" After that, the piece of dragon jade pendant that Li Yao was playing with in his hand suddenly broke off with a "snap", and for a while, his hand was also cut away, and blood oozed out and stained the cold jade pendant, Zha Jiang immediately got up and shouted outward: "Someone!

And Li Yao looked at the jade that was broken into two pieces, and muttered: "It turns out that this is really a lonely bloody road......"

The next day, Chenghuan Xiaozhu.

Listening to the sound of the palace people outside chanting long live, long live, Yao Jin closed his eyes tiredly: He is here, he is finally here.

Since the palace banquet in Guanghua Hall that night, Yao Jin has never taken the initiative to get up from this bed, her brain seems to have been dormant in the first few days, she has been pricked with needles, poured medicine, and Lin Yuebai grabbed her hand and cried like tears, all of this was in front of her eyes, but it seemed to be separated by a layer of well-soundproofed frosted glass, clear and blurred. Yao Jin was very happy, but she heard that the imperial doctors didn't know whether they were really worried or fake worried, saying that her pulse was extremely chaotic, she must have been overly frightened, and she might have been mentally exhausted or insane - she felt that although her body was still lying there steaming, her heart could finally get rid of the sea of suffering, she explained to them the eldest princess, and explained to this world Li Yaojin, who had failed in life, and she Yao Jin, she could finally be free.

But that night, she inadvertently heard the truth from the mouth of the groggy Lin Yuebai, the truth that she had also flashed in her mind but thought it was impossible, Yao Jin was shocked the moment she heard it, and after a moment of consternation, she suddenly felt infinite fear, for herself, for Lin Yuebai, and for everyone in this terrible palace city. In the middle of the night when no one was around, except for Lin Yuebai's dream-like murmuring, there was only death-like silence, Yao Jin suddenly clenched the two hands that had been paralyzed, she was glad that Lin Yuebai had the habit of dismissing the palace people to spend the night with her, and she was glad that Lin Yuebai told the truth that must have been very painful for her deep in her heart between such a half-dream and half-awake, she told her without knowing it, so that Yao Jin could still pretend not to know, and still be able to lie here in dementia to get another kind of freedom- No, she can't be free yet, and she can't get any freedom at all, even if she pretends to be crazy and stupid all her life, that person may not believe it, because that person is so ruthless, he has reached the peak of the mountain, all the way to the blood and bones, he will never allow them to laugh and sing freely beside him-
