Empress Dowager Luan almost forgot about the fall of the Eastern Capital, for her, except for the people who came to meet at the beginning, her life has hardly changed, she still has nothing to do every day, sitting in the house, feeling the sunrise and sunset, and wiping the waves with Buddhist scriptures and prayer beads.

Therefore, when the female official came in a panic and said, "That King Ning is here again", Empress Dowager Luan didn't understand and asked, "Which King Ning?" ”

"It's the big black guy who came back up." The female official is really anxious for the Queen Mother.

"Oh, that man." Empress Dowager Luan remembered it, feeling that it seemed to be a long time ago, and her memory was blurred, leaving only a faint impression, "He doesn't seem to be too dark." ”

"Queen Mother!"

"Huh?"

"King Ning has bad intentions here, we have to find a way."

"What can be done?"

Empress Dowager Luan always said this, and the female official heard it in her ears, and her heart was even more anxious, "You can ask King Wu for help." ”

"Who is King Wu?"

"The Queen Mother doesn't remember anything? King Wu is that young man, the son of the great general Lou Wen, who has always sent people to guard the palace. ”

"By the way, he was born to the princess of Wu Kingdom, which is interesting. Can he help me? ”

"Among the rebels, only King Wu is more polite, and he sent people to protect the palace, which should be able to stop King Ning."

"Since King Wu has sent someone to protect the dormitory, King Ning can't come in, right?"

"There are many people in King Ning outside, and there are few people in King Wu, I just glanced at it from a distance at the door, and King Wu's subordinates don't seem to dare to stop it, it must be King Wu himself......"

Before he could finish speaking, there was a heavy knock on the door and muffled shouts.

The female official's face turned pale, "King Ning is really here." ”

Empress Dowager Luan sighed lightly, "Then there is no way, or let's not open the door first, and see if King Wu can come in time." ”

"That's all there is to it." The female official no longer discussed with the Queen Mother, turned around and went out, gathered more than ten maids and servants in the courtyard, and prepared to take them to block the door together.

As soon as they arrived at the door, they saw a knife sticking in through the crack in the door, and they were so frightened that they screamed and ran away.

The door of the courtyard was opened, and the female official opened her heart, opened her arms and said loudly: "With me, you are not allowed to harass the Queen Mother!" ”

The soldiers were lined up on both sides, Ning Baoguan strode in, stared at the female officer and sneered, "Tiancheng men are all cowards, I didn't expect that there was a woman who protected the lord in the deep palace." ”

King Ning was even more terrifying than the female official remembered, her voice trembled slightly, but she didn't move, "Trespassing into the Queen Mother's bedroom, aren't you afraid that King Wu will settle accounts with you?" ”

"We do have an account to settle, and if he doesn't come to me, I'll go to him." Ning Baoguan strode forward, and with a flick of his hand, he pushed the female officer a few steps away.

The female official was anxious, stabilized her figure, and quickly chased after her, and Yu Guang saw that King Ning's subordinates were all staying at the door, and her heart was a little calm.

Empress Dowager Luan was silently chanting the scriptures, feeling that her heart was like water, and when the door opened, she was still startled, and she even forgot the words that she had read thousands of times.

Ning Baoguan looked at the Queen Mother, her heart seemed to have been twisted a few times, bringing all anxiety and pain, and there was only one way to end this feeling and make her heart smooth again.

"You are mine, even if you are the enemy of the world, you are also mine." Ning Baoguan said angrily, there was a strong urge to draw a knife and cut the woman in front of him into pieces, and there was an even stronger urge to stop him from doing so, and even wanted him to prostrate on the ground, begging for a little comfort.

"I can't do anything, I'm a useless person, why does King Ning have to ask me?" Empress Dowager Luan tried to maintain her composure and let herself smile a little, hoping to stabilize the intruder with such a gesture.

What Ning Baoguan saw was a timid beautiful woman, and a smile fell into the city, making his heart tighten twice.

"You are a scourge, a shameless slut, and you will die at your hands...... Ning Baoguan walked up to the Queen Mother, grabbed one of her wrists tightly, and shot a beastly greedy look in his eyes, and continued to curse in his mouth.

Empress Dowager Luan had never heard such unbearable language, there were many words she didn't understand at all, she only knew that these were all groundless accusations, and she was anxious and angry, but she couldn't speak, and tears rolled in her eyes.

Ning Baoguan suddenly softened, his hands relaxed, and said softly: "I will be good to you and let you become a ......"

With a pain in his back, Ning Baoguan turned around and swung his fist, knocking the assassin to the ground, and his heart became clear again—it turned out that there was another way to get rid of those strange feelings.

The female official who fell to the ground said sharply: "You are not allowed to insult the Queen Mother!" Queen Mother, do it quickly! ”

The dagger on Ning Baoguan's back shook slightly in front of Empress Dowager Luan's eyes, she was so frightened that her heart stopped beating, although she heard a sharp cry in her ears, she didn't know what it meant, and she didn't dare to reach out to touch the dagger.

Ning Baoguan pulled out his waist knife in pain, came to the female officer, and his murderous intent was sharp, holding the knife in both hands, and he was about to poke it hard.

"Don't kill her!" Empress Dowager Luan finally came to her senses and begged: "Don't kill her, I'm ...... I am the one who is you. ”

"Queen Mother, let him kill me! You have to find a way to kill yourself, keep your chastity, and never be insulted by traitors! ”

Empress Dowager Luan didn't want to commit suicide, "The cause of the past life, the result of this life, such as repaying debts, if you avoid it and don't pay it back, you will still have to suffer in the next life, don't live like this, and plant the cause for the next life." ”

Although she had been by the Queen Mother's side and knew who she was, the female official was still furious when she heard this, "Queen Mother, what are you talking about?" You are a natural heroine, the mother of the world, he is a robber in the grass, he is filthy, and it is humiliating to look at you more......"

"Someone!" Ning Baoguan walked to the door and called loudly, and immediately several soldiers ran over, first glanced at the Queen Mother, and then saw the dagger on King Ning's back, and couldn't help but be shocked.

"Take this woman down and gag her, but don't kill her."

"King Ning, you have ...... on your back"

Ning Baoguan turned his head and glanced at it, "Small injury, bandage it for me." ”

The two soldiers dragged the female officer away, and when she arrived outside the house, she was still shouting, persuading the Queen Mother to commit suicide.

Ning Baoguan carefully took off his shirt and pulled out the dagger with the help of the soldiers, fortunately, the female officer did not have much strength, and the armor in the clothes blocked it again, and the dagger penetrated through the gap and only stabbed a small section, causing bleeding on the back, but it was not fatal.

Ning hugged Guan and bandaged it hastily, sent the soldiers away, and said to the Queen Mother: "You didn't hide your weapons, did you?" ”

The Queen Mother shook her head and looked away, not looking at King Ning's exposed upper body.

The female official's thorn was like a basin of cold water, extinguishing the flame in Ning Baoguan's chest, but it did not extinguish his ambition, "King Wu wants to send you out of the city, but I won't allow it." Come with me now, and I will take you to the northern city, and from now on you will live in my camp and be protected by me. ”

The Queen Mother still shook her head, and she didn't understand what this meant

Ning Baoguan asked, "You have never been out of the palace?" ”

"Out of ...... Pass. "Empress Dowager Luan is not very sure, every time she leaves the palace, she sits in the phoenix chariot and can't see the outside scene, which is no different from being in the palace, and it is more depressing.

Ning Baoguan stretched out a hand, "Stand up and follow me, this is an order." ”

Empress Dowager Luan never makes her own decisions, and even what she wants to eat for breakfast has to be brought up euphemistically, and if the palace maids are embarrassed, she will not insist.

As soon as King Ning gave the order, she stood up involuntarily, but she refused to take a step, not because she didn't want to, but because she was weak all over her body, she barely maintained her standing posture.

Ning hugged the queen mother and hugged him by the waist, there was a slight pain in his back, and the wound seemed to be bleeding again, he didn't care, and even felt happy.

Walking out of the door with the Queen Mother in his arms, Ning Baoguan saw his wife standing in the courtyard, her eyes cold and with a hint of reproach.

This is a basin of cold water that is colder and more than the dagger of the female officer, Ning hugged and closed his arms and loosened his arms, and found that the queen mother was slipping, so he hurriedly held it up again.

In order to maintain the balance of her body, Empress Dowager Luan had to put her arms around King Ning's neck, and when she saw the woman in the courtyard, she became more and more ashamed, so she simply closed her eyes and silently prayed that all this was a nightmare and that she would wake up earlier.

Niu Tiannu took two steps forward, "This is the famous Tiancheng Empress Dowager?" ”

Ning Baoguan nodded, he had three points of respect, three points of gratitude, and three points of fear for his wife, but he lost that bit of husband and wife.

Niu Tiannu doesn't like to quarrel, "Where are you going to take her?" ”

"Go back to the North City Barracks."

"And then?"

And then ...... Just stay there. ”

"Officers and soldiers break the city, what should you do? Take her to flee together, or to die together? ”

"How much influence can she, a woman, have on defending the city?"

"If you can't even figure out this little thing, you will be called King Ning in vain."

Ning Baoguan was silent, of course he understood that the Queen Mother herself was useless, but using the Queen Mother to exchange for the trust of the officers and soldiers was an important part of King Wu's plan to lure the troops.

"I think at the beginning, it was I who persuaded you to be king, and persuaded you to leave the incarnation king and find another territory. Others think that you have abandoned your wife and children, and I don't defend it, because I know that Qinzhou Ning Bang'er has great ambitions and cannot be dragged down by his family, and when Ning Bang'er returns one day, he will be above 10,000 people. ”

Ning Baoguan was still silent, and the Queen Mother on her arm became heavier and heavier.

"But you didn't go to Jiangdong, you gave up halfway and stayed in Luozhou. Well, at least you can build an army that will be on an equal footing with the kings, and even the incarnate king will give you three points. You like cavalry, I will find suitable generals for you from among the captives, you have a natural ability to lead troops to fight, okay, I will collect grain and grass for you, so that you have no worries. ”

"I will not forget your benefits for a moment."

"But I have forgotten what all this is for, tens of thousands of soldiers accompanied you from birth to death, just to take a woman? At the age of King Wu's blood and strength, he still knows that it is enough to stop, and he does not think of women. The dignified King Ning, can't he cross this threshold? King Wu deliberately spread the news and deliberately let you break into the palace, just to make you mistake, do you not understand, or do you knowingly commit it? I don't understand, you're blind, you knowingly commit it, you're a fool. ”

Ning Baoguan glanced down at the Queen Mother, his heart twisted a few more times, his arms couldn't help but exert force, he wanted to stuff her into his chest, the pain in his back made him wake up in time, slowly let go, put the Queen Mother on the ground, and said to his wife: "If King Wu is not removed, there will be trouble." ”

"Well, but not now, King Wu is in a hurry, let him fight with the officers and soldiers, the only thing we have to do is to train the cavalry, this army is your weapon to run rampant in the world, the so-called conspiracy is just a child's trick, just watch them play, you don't need to participate."

Empress Dowager Luan was unsteady on her feet and had to lean against the door frame to do it, Ning Baoguan glanced at her and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Niu Tiannu smiled and said: "The wife of the Emperor of All Things, the biological mother of the little emperor, I really can't imagine that if King Ning can defeat the officers and soldiers, he will naturally be able to take her back, so why care about a little goodbye for a while?" ”

Ning Baoguan turned his head, "What I want is the world, not a woman." ”

Niu Tiannu nodded approvingly, hugged her husband's injured side, and helped him out, her heart was unwavering, she knew that she could always win her husband back, because others only saw King Ning's past and present, but she saw the future.
