Yuan Yuyi's heart was shocked, and she didn't speak. She slowly wrapped her arms around Gao Cheng's neck and pillowed her head on his shoulder, her warm breath on his shoulder. Suddenly, she whispered in his ear, "What did the prince say about this?" The prince is concerned about the government and politics, and he works hard every day, so he should no longer worry about me. I don't want anything else, I just want to be by the side of the son for a long time, and relieve the worries of the son, and my wish is enough. ”

Gao Cheng has never had a woman who relies on him and obeys him so much, and she thinks about him everywhere, and she has nothing to ask for from him, and she can't help but be moved. In fact, why did he care who this person was? He just wants her to cling to him like this. I couldn't stop blurting out suddenly, "Ah Yuan, if you were like this a long time ago, my heart must be only on you." He hugged Yuan Yuyi tightly into his arms, as if he was afraid that she would disappear.

Emperor Yuan Xiu's good mood lasted only one night.

In fact, the first to wake up was Zuo Zhaoyi and Yuan Mingyue. Perhaps because he was so excited the night before, Yuan Xiu stayed up almost all night until the early hours of the morning when he fell asleep in the fatigue of emotional relaxation. At this time, Yuan Mingyue had already woken up in the side hall where he lived. Before she could open her eyes, she heard the chirping of birds outside the window.

In Yuan Mingyue's ears, the birds sang extremely pleasantly, which was even better than all the sounds of silk and bamboo she had ever heard. She lay on the couch, thinking back to last night, imagining the more important plan that Yuan Xiu had mentioned in the near future, and she simply had a kind of longing.

But her good mood did not last long, when she heard the door of the temple open with a slow "creaking", followed by the sound of deliberately lightened footsteps. The footsteps were very familiar, and I knew that they had come in with the young man who had left the palace. Yuan Mingyue opened her eyes at this time, and called with the happy mood just now, "Auntie, is the Lord awake?" ”

At this time, Qian Yu had already walked to her bed and asked first, "Is Your Highness awake?" Then he put away the bed curtain. Yuan Mingyue heard that Qian Yuan's voice was wrong, and her heart tightened and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Qian Qian pondered for a moment before replying, "Prince of Bohai King, Gao Cheng in the service has come to respectfully invite the Lord and Zuo Zhaoyi back to the palace. ”

"He ......" Yuan Mingyue exclaimed, feeling that something was wrong, and changed his words again, "Has the senior waiter already come?" ”

Yuan Mingyue sorted out her outfit in a sad and uneasy mood. When she went out to see, Emperor Yuan Xiu also came out of the main hall where she slept last night. Although the grooming is neat and meticulous, the spirit is like last night, solemn and heavy.

It's Gao Cheng, I don't know how he sorted out the chaos in the palace yesterday, and I don't know if he rushed to Bishan so early and walked for a long time at night last night, but he couldn't tell how radiant and radiant he was. Gao Cheng saw the obvious displeasure on Emperor Yuan Xiu's face but turned a blind eye, walked straight to the emperor and bowed, knelt on the ground and said, "This mountain and wild Taoist temple is not a place where the Supreme Residence for a long time, and the minister specially led the ministers to welcome His Majesty and Zuo Zhaoyi back to the palace." ”

There is no superfluous word, and the goal is clear. And Gao Cheng is extraordinarily respectful today. This made Emperor Yuan Xiu unable to find any more problems.

Yuan Xiu didn't speak. Yuan Mingyue stood beside him, looking at the situation in front of him with trepidation. Gao Cheng bowed down and knelt on the ground. However, although Sun Teng, Chen Yuankang and others behind him were extremely respectful, they clearly carried an eerie murderous aura.

Gao Cheng opened his mouth again and said loudly, "Yesterday's incident was that the queen offended the holy bow, and the minister asked His Majesty to return to the palace and depose the queen as a punishment and a police officer." ”

Yuan Xiu looked at Gao Cheng kneeling in front of him, the minister behind him, and the sergeant in the distance. There are also Taoist priests kneeling down in the corners of this courtyard. Looking at the vast mountain in the distance, he hadn't had time to take a good look at the scenery on Cuiyun Peak during the day.

It was an extremely sunny and good weather, and Yuan Xiu's heart was full of reluctance, but he was forced to the extreme. He finally made up his mind and said slowly, "Cultivating alone, whether it is on this Cuiyun Peak or in the palace, there is no difference. The queen is not at fault, but she is lonely, how can she depose the theory, and she should comfort the queen well. Qing had a sincere heart, so he followed Qing's invitation and went back alone. As he spoke, he walked down the stairs with heavy steps.

Gao Cheng raised his head and watched the emperor's figure pass in front of him, as if he was a little incredulous. Yuan Xiu has never been like this, why is he so patient today?

After the prosperity of peach and apricot, Chang'an, which is thousands of miles away from Luoyang, is also full of the taste of early summer. It's just that Chang'an City is far from being as turbulent as Luoyang City, and it is quite calm in comparison.

The eldest princess Yuan Yuying, who is about to give birth, can't stand the heat, and always has a feather fan in her hand. Chang'an City has a lot of things and people, and compared with Luoyang City, the capital of Wei, it seems to have a more calm and unhurried momentum. Yuan Yuying has been staying at home for a long time since she met with Nanyang Wang Yuanbao Torch. This reassured Wootai, who was worried about her safety. There are no idle people in the Hussar General's Mansion, and it is quiet and safe enough.

It may be that the day of labor is approaching, and in the evening of this day, Yuwentai found that Yuan Yuying's complexion was uncertain, and he was afraid that she would be flustered about something temporarily, so he stayed in front of Yuan Yuying's bed after nightfall. Yuan Yuying had her husband by her side, but she fell asleep quickly, and nothing happened during this time.

I don't know if it's because of the heat or something else, in the middle of the night, Yuan Yuying suddenly woke up. Taking advantage of the bright moonlight, Yuan Yuying found that her husband Junyu Wentai was neither sleeping on the bed, nor guarding her in front of the couch, and had disappeared. Somehow, I always feel strange in my heart, and there is always something wrong with my intuition. According to Yuan Yuying's character, she is not a person who is willing to forbear, so she got up lightly and walked to the door as lightly as possible. I was about to take another step forward and reach out to open the door, when suddenly the door was opened by someone outside. Yuan Yuying subconsciously protected her abdomen and took a step back, shocked by this prominent thing. Thinking that her husband Junyu Wentai had returned, he didn't speak, just stood where he was and waited for him to come in.

Who knew that it was her maid Nan Qiao who came in from the outside. Nan Qiao probably wanted to come in and take care of the eldest princess, afraid that something would happen. Nan Qiao might as well have the eldest princess wake up early and stand in front of her, she opened the door in the dark, but she didn't expect that there was a person standing in front of her, which scared Nan Qiao's heart wildly, and she screamed a little. But after all, he still controlled it, and he didn't make a sound.

"Nan Qiao." The eldest princess saw that she was frightened, and hurriedly called her.

Nan Qiao came back to his senses when he heard this call, but he still asked with some surprise, "Why did Your Highness wake up?" Is there any discomfort? As he spoke, he walked over and helped Yuan Yuying to sit down on the couch again.

"Where's Captain Horse?" Yuan Yuying was even more suspicious in her heart.

"Captain Ma is in the mansion, and he has just come out of His Highness's room. For some reason, General Zhao Gui, the governor of the capital, suddenly came, as if there was something important. Nan Qiao didn't hide it at all, and told the eldest princess Yuan Yuying everything she knew.

It's so late at night, why is Zhao Gui in a hurry to see Yuwentai immediately? Yuan Yuying frowned and pondered, but did not speak.

Nan Qiao was afraid that the eldest princess would hurt herself by thinking so much, so she persuaded, "Your Highness should rest, don't worry too much, I'm afraid that there is something going on in Luoyang, I heard that General Yu Jin has a letter." Attached to Ma Duwei is about to discuss with General Zhao Gui about the government and how to assist the lord. ”

Nan Qiao's words woke up Yuan Yuying. In other words, what Yuwentai and Zhao Gui discussed was not an urgent matter, but this matter was too important and needed to be carried on people's backs. But what is it that requires late-night plotting? If it was really like what Nan Qiao said, the discussion was to assist Emperor Yuan Xiu and suppress the Gao clan, then there was no need to talk so nervously and closely in Chang'an. With Yuwentai's status today, no one dares to say that it is not, even if he makes such a statement publicly. Even the prime minister Gao Huan has to be afraid of him for three points.

Yuan Yuying stood up and said softly, "Where did Captain Ma see Zhao Gui?" I'm going to take a look. ”

"Your Highness, this is not appropriate." Nan Qiao hesitated.

"The Supreme is my own brother, he is already in a difficult situation, and now he wants to rely on Guanzhong, how can I not have any defense?" Yuan Yuying said categorically and non-negotiable, and walked outside after speaking. Nan Qiao had no choice but to follow.

A wise man must make a mistake in a thousand thoughts. Yuwentai and Zhao Gui didn't expect to let their henchmen guard outside at all, and they didn't expect that the eldest princess Yuan Yuying had quietly arrived under the window of the house where they were secretly discussing. What's even more coincidental is that because of the hot weather, the windows are not completely tight, so Yuan Yuying can easily hear the sound of them talking inside.

In fact, to put it mildly, Yuwen Tai's family is very strict, and there are no people in the house who dare to talk nonsense. Even if they knew that Lord Lang and Zhao Gui were discussing here, no one dared to approach. So it just happened to be Yuan Yuying and Nan Qiao. Yuan Yuying's steps were extremely light, and she hid in the side of the window and listened attentively. But Nan Qiao's heart was beating hard, always worried that Yuwentai and Zhao Gui would suddenly come out. The eldest princess is naturally unharmed, and it is difficult to say what will happen to her.

Yu Wentai and Zhao Gui inside were indeed discussing a big matter, and they were naturally extremely concentrated.

"Brother Sijing is about to attract the attention of that little prince now, so he doesn't care about letting him know that he has a letter with me, and he just wants to explain the affairs of the capital in detail." Yu Wentai only listened attentively and did not speak, Zhao Gui just explained the details. "This time, I didn't expect Her Royal Highness the Queen to give a helping hand and help the Lord stage a play for Xiao Shizi to see. With this foreshadowing, it can be regarded as a trick for Xiao Shizi, and after that, the real big thing comes out, and when he doesn't distinguish the truth from the false, he can also give the Lord a chance to take advantage of. ”

Event? What's the big deal? Yuan Yuying didn't know the cause and effect at all, but she noticed the word very sensitively, and she listened more attentively next.

Nan Qiao is always afraid of someone, at least half of his mind is looking left and right.

Inside, Zhao Gui continued. He saw that Yuwentai didn't respond, so he said, "Thanks to Brother Sijing, the Lord has no doubts. I led the troops to Tongguan to respond, out of Tongguan when worry-free, Ming Gong thinks? ”

At this moment, there was a sudden silence inside and outside.

Yuan Yuying subconsciously covered her mouth tightly, and Nan Qiao hurriedly supported her, already shocked and scared in her heart. Yuan Yuying already felt discomfort in her abdomen, but she still endured it and waited to listen. Otherwise, she always thinks that she is wrong. Out of Tongguan? Listening to Zhao Gui's words is from Luoyang to Chang'an, so who wants to go from Luoyang to Chang'an? She didn't care at all how Yuwentai and Zhao Gui teased Gao Cheng with Yu Jin, but what about Emperor Yuan Xiu?

"Tell Si Jing that nothing goes wrong, and that the Lord must not be harmed." Yuwentai finally spoke, paused for a moment, and Yuwentai's voice was again, "To welcome such a major event, you must be cautious, I will go to Tongguan to welcome the Son of Heaven into Chang'an." ”

Yuan Yuying's heart finally fell back. After listening to Yu Wentai's words, she was comforted and no longer afraid that her younger brother Yuan Xiu would be hurt.

"Ming Gong rest assured, we know that it is powerful. If the Son of Heaven loses in Luoyang, it is the fault of the Gao family. Now that Ming Gong is sincerely welcome, he must not make mistakes to establish his authority. Although it is a long way from Luoyang to Chang'an, I will protect His Majesty with my strength to help Ming Gong succeed. Zhao Gui swore an oath. Yu Wentai knew very well what he was, so he didn't give many orders.

It turned out that it was really Emperor Yuan Xiu who wanted to abandon Luoyang and close it. Yuan Yuying's heart was refreshed, and she always felt that something was wrong. But even if he is in Luoyang and the Gao family is on his side, it is impossible for Emperor Yuan Xiu to display his ambitions, and maybe it is a good thing to come to Guanzhong.

It's just that this change was born too big, and the Son of Heaven ran away, which was enough to shock the whole country and shake people's hearts. As for the latter result, it is not controllable.

Yuan Yuying's abdominal discomfort intensified, and she held Nan Qiao's arm and planned to go back. But at this moment, he heard Yu Wentai suddenly speak again.
