Seeing the queen's big reaction, Mama persuaded her, "Niangniang is angry, according to the old slave, the head of the family also has his plans, the huge foundation of the Luo family is not easy to operate today, it is always good to be vigilant, and you can't make a big mistake if you are careful." ”

The queen narrowed her phoenix eyes, "How can this palace not understand the truth of carefully sailing the 10,000-year-old ship, but I can't wait now, not to mention that the prince now has Prince Hui as a backer, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to help him when he stays, and there will be more fierce rivals of King Jinyang, so we must speed up our pace and regain the position of the crown prince." ”

"Besides, there are 200,000 soldiers stationed in the Yingbai Mountain, who want to eat, drink, and pay for their salaries, right? Luo's money has been hollowed out over the years, if he doesn't act this time, where will he have the opportunity to get so much property in the future. ”

"If the military salary cannot be paid at that time, the army's heart will be shaken, and the army's heart will be in chaos, who is willing to work for the Luo family? Then isn't it equivalent to raising a group of people who eat white food for nothing all these years, and then it is useless at all? So this time, even if it is a risk, it will be risky, not to mention that even the emperor has acted, it must be true, what is there to scruple about. ”

After the queen said this, Mama's face was slightly condensed, "What Niangniang said is extremely true, for the sake of military salary, the head of the family has deducted the tax silver to be paid to the court, and the emperor can endure this matter for a while, and he can't bear it for a lifetime, maybe one day he will completely turn his face with Luo." ”

The queen nodded, "So we must act, and we must do it as soon as possible, in order to achieve the greatest benefit." ”

"It's just that the meaning of the letter from the head of the family is that I think this news was learned from the emperor, could it be a trap?" Mama pondered for a moment and said again.

"Trap? how could it be!" the queen frowned, "The head of the family can't trust this palace?"

Mama shook her head again and again when she heard this, "No, no, how could the head of the family not believe in Niangniang, but some doubts are inevitable." ”

The queen snorted coldly, "Although the news of this palace was obtained from the emperor, it was not told to this palace by the emperor himself, it was overheard by this palace, so there is no trap." ”

"Now that the emperor has sent someone to Baoshan secretly, if the treasure falls into the hands of the imperial court, then the Luo clan will not want to get a piece of the pie, and then don't talk to the palace again. ”

"Oh?" the grandmother was stunned, "The emperor has already sent troops to Baoshan?"

"Can this still be fake? Luo is far away in the west, if he doesn't rush to Baoshan, I'm afraid that even if he goes, it will be too late, and what he will get is not Baoshan but empty mountain. The queen was a little annoyed, she finally got the news that the head of the Luo family actually pushed back and did not act, it was really in vain for her to take the risk of passing the message.

"But at this juncture, the emperor sent the king of Jinyang to act as a personal guard, and he happened to pass through the west, could it be that there was some other purpose? "Although Mama is asking for instructions, she is actually full of doubts.

"What other purpose can it be? It's just that there is a conflict between the neighboring country in the west and the border, and in order to ease the situation, the emperor has taken in a righteous daughter to make peace. The queen said disapprerovingly.

"It's just a kiss, and you don't have to send King Jinyang. He was an important minister in the court. Mama still wondered what was going on.

Bengong thought that the emperor was also a little jealous of the Luo family, perhaps because he was afraid that the western part of the trip would interfere and mess up his peace plan, so he sent the King of Jinyang to escort him to show his attention and deterrence. ”

"If that's the case, there's nothing to worry about. The old lady seemed to have finally made up her mind.

"Since there is nothing to worry about, what are you still doing in a daze, why don't you go and send another letter, so that they don't have to worry about it, and start going to Baoshan as soon as possible, it's late, but there will be nothing, don't be weird then." The queen saw that the old lady hesitated and moved.

"Yes, the old slave will do it immediately. Then the old lady turned around and went out.

She walked out of the dormitory, walking vigorously in the night, she didn't look like an old man in the twilight at all, she was a married grandmother who entered the palace with the queen, she was no longer young, but she didn't hide her figure but didn't show her old age, she should have martial arts.

Seeing that the old lady was gone, the queen's face was a little solemn, and her eyes looked behind the screen.

"Come out. ”

After the screen, a man in black walked out and walked slowly to the queen, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, "It seems that the head of the Luo family doesn't believe you very much." ”

The queen snorted disdainfully, "So what? ”

The man in black had a clear expression, "That's true, otherwise you wouldn't have let the Luo family stay in the capital and ask me to help you." ”

"Although this palace is the Luo family, and you are the queen, but after all, after all, you have been in the palace for more than 20 years from the Luo family, maybe they can't tell whether my heart is the Luo family or the emperor's, and it is inevitable that I will be suspicious of me, why should I bet all my chips on them, who knows if they will abandon the chess piece of this palace one day. ”

The queen's tone was indifferent, but she was extremely embarrassed and helpless.

"So this palace must start a way back for itself, they can be the best help for this palace, if not, this palace will not be defeated with them. ”

She suddenly looked at the man in black, her eyes were quite resentful, "Whether you believe it or not, in fact, by now, the driving force that drives this palace to bother planning all this is no longer the imperial power, but unwillingness." ”

"What I want is not a future of glory and wealth, fine clothes and fine food, or the position of the respected queen mother, but I want a result to commemorate this life, otherwise, I will live this in vain, sacrifice in vain......" her lips trembled, "sacrificed the time and ...... in vain" She couldn't go on, her eyes dimmed.

The man in black suddenly reached out and grabbed the queen's soft wrist, "Man'er, is there still me?"

The queen's body trembled, Man'er, she has not heard such a title for many years, and even the emperor has never called her like this.

Just this title pulled her mind back to the days when she had not yet entered the palace more than 20 years ago.

It's a pity that people can't go back.

"Man'er, in fact, you haven't forgotten me, haven't you?" The man in black asked in a very soft voice, but his voice changed tone, with sadness, reluctance, and attachment on his face.

The queen was regained by his questioning again, and her gaze moved to his face.

The man in black did not cover his face, he looked like he was no more than forty, he was still dignified, very handsome, but there was a coldness between his eyebrows, revealing a kind of majesty, a pair of deep eyes with vicissitudes, and more deeply buried undetectable emotions.

He is still so handsome and affectionate, just like back then, the queen almost fell into a daze, but, it's just that this is not the past, even if he is still there, and she is no longer her.

"Actually, we still have a chance, Man'er, if you want, we still have the rest of our lives, I can take you away and fly high, as long as you can leave all this, the world is big, there is always a place for us. The man in black said urgently, his eyes lit with hope.

The queen was excited, as if suddenly awake, broke free from his hand, and shook her head again and again, "Impossible, this is impossible." ”

The man in black asked unrelentingly, "Why is it impossible?"

"Twenty years ago, I didn't go with you, and now it's even more impossible. At that time, since I had made such a choice, I had to go down this road no matter what, and I could only go on. Although the queen's heart was shaken for a moment, she could immediately cut the railway.

"Man'er, why do you have to go all the way to the dark, you know it's wrong, you know it's not worth it, can't you turn back?"

"It's too far, it's too far, it's too wrong, there's no turning back. The queen smiled bitterly.

"Man'er ......"

"Well, you don't have to say any more. The queen suddenly grimened her face and refused to keep him thousands of miles away.

The man in black took a deep breath and restrained his emotions, "Okay, I won't say, no matter how you choose, I will follow in your footsteps and do my best to help you, what is the complaint about going to the soup for you." ”

The queen turned her back to prevent him from seeing her fragility and the tears in her eyes.

She is a high queen, but she was also young, and she also had a cardamom age, and she also had a heart in that best age, but unfortunately, fate dictated that she could only cut off the love thread.

This man, in her life, will fail him after all, and she will always live up to him.

But how can she be blamed for this? Born in Luo's family, she doesn't belong to her, she can only belong to the family, and she can only sacrifice for the family.

What is a good thing to be born in a rich and noble family? But you have to exchange your life of happiness and your beloved. But this is fate, she can't choose, and she can't change it.

I can only endure the heartache, accept the arrangement, and go on the trajectory of fate, knowing that it is wrong, otherwise I will lose my direction and not know where to go.

"You're here in person today, but what's the important matter?" the queen tried her best to calm her tone.

The man in black nodded, "Yes, otherwise I wouldn't have ventured into the palace." ”

It's also shocking to think about it, and before she could speak, the old woman came in. His life is not to be spared, he is afraid that it will affect the queen in case.

"What did you find?" the queen raised her eyebrows, and she was extremely curious.

After she entered the palace that year, he also secretly went to the capital, and she occasionally heard news about him from the Luo family's eyeliner, knowing that he had never married, and secretly recruited a group of forces in the capital.

Although she couldn't get in touch with him at the time, she knew very well that he must have done it for her.

I thought that after she made a choice, he would give up, then forget about her and start a new life.

I didn't expect him to be so affectionate, but it's a pity that after taking this step, she couldn't have any other ideas.

He has helped her a lot in secret over the years, but the two have never seen each other a few times, first, the palace is not easy to enter, and second, he is afraid of causing trouble.

Even if there is something, it is through the eyeliner inside and outside the palace, today he suddenly came to her bedroom in person, although she didn't care on the surface, she was also nervous in her heart, and she was even more like a deer, and even she was frightened with joy.

She thought that the heartbeat and affection she once had lost with the years, but now she found that everything was still there, but it was suppressed in the depths of her heart.
