Out of Zhongcui Palace, Yun Qingyan and Yun Yao walked side by side on the palace road.

Looking at Yun Yao, whose face was ugly, Yun Qingyan said softly: "Are you blaming me in your heart now, instead of helping you persuade the queen mother, you are on the side of the queen mother?" ”

Yun Yao stopped and looked at Yun Qingyan, and after a long while, he slowly shook his head.

"Sister Huang, I don't blame you, you are standing on the side of the queen mother, maybe you are also brightening the queen mother for her good. But I just don't understand why the queen mother and the father have been married for so many years, why are they like this now? ”

From the time he could remember, he knew that the relationship between his father and mother was very good, and in his memory, the two of them had always respected each other, Qin Se and Ming, he never thought that one day the relationship between the father and the queen mother would come to the point of separation.

Yun Qingyan looked at Yun Yao, although Yun Yao helped Emperor Yun deal with government affairs on weekdays, and he was very mature everywhere, but after all, he was still younger than himself after all. Or maybe Yun Yao has lived in a very happy situation between Emperor Yun and Queen Chu since he was a child, so now he is a little unacceptable.

Hooked lips and smiled, Yun Qingyan's tone was a little cold.

"In fact, it didn't happen all of a sudden, the relationship between the father and the queen mother had already appeared cracks. Maybe for my father, the past is the past, but for the queen mother, everything before is a scar in her heart, and it can't be completely erased. ”

"Imperial sister, do you mean the matter of Concubine Wan?" Yun Yao frowned.

"That's right." Yun Qingyan nodded, "Do you remember that time when the queen mother felt extremely disappointed because of her father, and even had a serious illness." ”

"Yes." Yun Yao thought about it for a moment, "However, there was a conflict between the natural queen mother and the father emperor that time, but didn't it also reconcile later?" ”

"You are wrong, it is easy to reconcile people, but it is too difficult to be the same, after that incident, although the queen mother seems to be reconciled with her father, she always has a pimple in her heart. Or that incident has always buried a scar in the queen mother's heart, this time the father's suspicion and refusal to trust is undoubtedly to completely uncover the scar in the queen mother's heart. ”

Yun Qingyan looked at the moon in the sky, remembering Queen Chu's helpless expression just now, and couldn't help but feel a little more melancholy and sadness.

"When the scar on my heart is revealed again in blood, it hurts, and I am afraid, it is only because of people's instinctive sense of self-preservation, and they will also want to stay away from the person or thing that has caused harm to them. This is the choice of the queen mother, you may think that she is impulsive, but in fact, for her, this is the only way she can protect herself and escape from the hurt. ”

Yun Qingyan's voice was not loud, but every word was like a blunt weapon, and it smashed into Yun Yao's heart at once.

"Sister Huang, I never thought that the queen mother's heart could be so uncomfortable......"

If everything is really as the royal sister said, then what he just said didn't make the queen mother completely in a dilemma. Born as a son of man, he is really unfilial!

"Alright." Yun Qingyan smiled and reached out and patted Yun Yao's shoulder, "I don't say this to make you feel guilty, I just hope you can understand the queen mother and respect her choice." ”

Yun Yao nodded seriously, "Sister Huang, you said that between the father and the queen mother, is it really only like this from now on?" ”

"I can't say anything about that." Yun Qingyan smiled, "Maybe one day suddenly the scar in the queen mother's heart heals, and she will choose to get back together again, but it must be because of her own choice, not the persecution of you, me or others." ”

Only in this way can Empress Chu feel that she has been fully respected. Only in this way can Empress Chu's choice be willing.

"Then what if one day the queen mother changes her mind, but the father ...... it" Yun Yao did not continue.

Now these gossips in the court have brought so much pressure to the father, what if the father really dislikes the queen mother because of this matter?

"You have to believe in the relationship between the father and the queen mother, if the friendship between the father and the queen mother is really so vulnerable, then the queen mother's change of heart will have no value. It's better to live quietly by yourself, and it can be regarded as peaceful. As for now, it's up to you to persuade your father. ”

Yun Qingyan patted Yun Yao's shoulder again, "After all, my younger brother has also grown up, and my father is very important to you now, with you by his side to help and persuade him, there shouldn't be much of a problem." ”

When Yun Qingyan said this, Yun Yao felt that the gloom in his heart had subsided a lot, and this could be regarded as laughing.

"Sister Huang, don't worry, I will definitely persuade my father."

"Okay, it's not too early, let's go back quickly!" Yun Qingyan nodded and spoke.

Yun Yao responded, but just as the two of them were about to leave, they suddenly saw the figure of a man in black flash in the corridor not far away.

"Who's over there!" Yun Yao's heart was shocked, and he immediately shouted loudly, "Someone, catch the assassin!" ”

The man in black hurriedly fled when he heard the sound, or the Imperial Forest Army patrolling there also hurriedly rushed over.

The man in black was agile, and he defeated several royal forest soldiers at once, and then flew away in the direction of the palace gate.

The commander of the Imperial Forest Army immediately took a bow and arrow, and shot it at the leg of the man in black at once, but what he didn't expect was that the man in black did not fall, but just fell on the roof, and then limped over the roof and continued to run in the direction of the palace wall.

The commander of the Imperial Forest Army immediately arranged for people to chase after him, and then walked quickly in front of Yun Qingyan and Yun Yao.

"I've seen His Royal Highness the Prince, I've seen Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, the last general didn't protect it effectively, and even let the thieves break into the palace, and ask the prince, the eldest princess to forgive the sins!"

"Okay, you take someone to chase after you now, you must catch someone, and see who is so bold as to dare to sneak into the palace!" Yun Yao said with a serious expression, "And immediately send additional men to protect the palace of the father and the queen mother to prevent assassins from being in the palace." ”

"Yes, the last general obeys!" The commander of the Imperial Forest Army immediately followed the order and rushed to the direction of the palace gate with the people.

And Yun Yao couldn't worry about Emperor Yun's safety, so he found a few Royal Forest Soldiers to escort Yun Qingyan back, while he went to the imperial study.

The sudden appearance of the Assassin quickly exploded in the palace, but what everyone didn't expect was that the Guards tracked them all the way out of the palace, and finally followed the trail of blood, and it took a lot of effort to catch the assassin.

However, the place where the assassin was caught was extremely close to the Taifu Mansion, and most importantly, the Imperial Guards actually found a letter on the assassin's body.

It turned out that the assassin turned out to be a spy planted by Dongyang Kingdom in Chu Yunguo, and the letter was sent from Dongyang Guochen Palace, ordering the assassin to enter the palace to find the border defense map, and the letter also mentioned that if you are in danger, you can go to Taifu Mansion for help!
