In the past, the Longevity Palace was a lot cold and lonely, these individuals were newly allocated to Pingyang by the emperor, and they were as respectful to Pingyang as ever, showing that the emperor had already mentioned it.

"The eldest princess is waiting for the princess in the palace."

Luo Qing thanked him and was about to step into the door, but Su Su behind him was stopped by the palace people.

"The eldest princess said, no one is there except the princess."

"Susu, you just wait for me outside."

Su Su was a little worried, and wanted to persuade again, but was stopped by Luo Qing.

"It's okay, this is the eldest princess's palace."

Su Su understood what Luo Qing meant, so she had to retreat outside the door and wait, just waiting for anything to happen in the hall and rush in.

After hearing the squeak of the palace door being closed, Luo Qing realized the darkness in the hall.

The weather is not good today, and there are only two candles burning in the hall, which are clearly extinguished.

Luo Qing didn't see anyone in the outer hall, so he had to call people softly: "Pingyang? ”

No one answered.

She slowly entered the inner sanctum, which had not even been lit by a candle, and she scanned the room through the darkness, and the people seemed to be on the bed where the tent had been laid.

"Pingyang, do you want me to light the candle?"

She was afraid of frightening Pingyang, and her voice was very slow and soft, but she didn't get a response for a long time.

She sighed and asked softly, "Can I come over?" ”

The man hidden behind the bed curtain seemed to move, and heard her voice in a dumb voice: "Light the candle, only one, stay away from me, I don't want to see the light." ”

"Okay." Luo Qing spoke more and more carefully, lest he be frightened to Pingyang.

When the candle was lit, Luo Qing didn't hear Pingyang speak again, and he didn't dare to step forward, so he just stood far away.

After a long time, Pingyang opened his mouth.

"Come and sit."

"Okay."

Luo Qing walked slowly to the bed tent, and then carefully pulled the bed tent open, but saw Pingyang sitting on the bed with his shoulders slumped, and when he raised his head again, his originally round little face had become thin, his chin had become sharper, and a pair of big eyes seemed to be getting bigger and bigger, hanging hollow on his face.

Seeing her like this, Luo Qing's heart was sour: "I'm sorry, Pingyang." ”

Pingyang chuckled: "What are you sorry for me?" It was just a loose excuse that led me deliberately into a trap to capture a fugitive, and then tied a poked hole in a sachet containing red powder to my body. ”

Luo Qing was choked by these words, but this is indeed the case.

She did use Pingyang and used this friend who really treats her own to deal with her own mother.

She is truly irrefutable.

"I'm sorry ......"

She snapped.

"What's the use of being sorry? I'm sorry, can I change back to my mother? ”

Pingyang's small hands clutched the brocade quilt covering his body, tears were already covering his face, and he complained hoarsely to Luo Qing.

"You have something you want to protect, don't I have one? I also want to protect my mother and protect my home! I treat you as my best friend, and I've never been so close to my cousin, I'm ...... Blind as a bat! ”

"Binh Duong ......"

Luo Qing only felt that his throat seemed to be blocked by something, and he couldn't say anything, so he could only squeeze out these two words with difficulty.

"You are all so powerful, I am really willing to bow down, I didn't expect that you let me go to Huguo Temple for this, and you gave me a ...... You betrayed me, you know? ”

"You have all betrayed me! One is my most beloved brother, and the other is my best friend, you know? I made a friend in the palace so easily, I was so happy that I went crazy, and pulled my queen mother and said a lot of good things about you......"

Luo Qing couldn't help it, tears came out of her eyes, she was afraid that Pingyang would see it, so she turned over slightly, and in a hurry, she directly wiped the tears on her cheeks with her sleeve.

"I know that the damage has been done, and no matter how sorry I say, it won't help, but Dingguo Gong must be caught, otherwise when he escapes to the territory of the Huns, then Daqi will be in danger, and it will be the people of Daqi who will suffer."

"You are all right, you are all good, you all have a saying for doing things, you all have people you want to protect, for the sake of this world, for the great revelation, for the people of the great revelation, what about me?"

Pingyang wiped the tears on his face with the back of his hand, took a deep breath, and then continued.

"I'm really stupid, I think I'll go with them, and when the time comes, persuade my mother and uncle to turn back, I still want to help you persuade them, but what I'm waiting for is killing, betrayal, and watching a person die in front of me!"

Luo Qing didn't know what to say, so she could only shake her head and say sorry.

For a while, no one spoke again, and Pingyang's mood calmed down a little.

"That's it, don't say it, I don't ask for anything else, please let me see my mother again, and ...... the emperor The emperor said it, okay? Please......"

Luo Qing looked at the thin and small Pingyang and begged for himself, in the end, he couldn't bear it, and it was also to compensate, so he finally nodded and agreed.

"Okay, but Pingyang, have you ever thought that the Queen Mother was so determined to cut off relations with you that day, in fact, it was to protect you, you ......?"

She looked at the light in Pingyang's eyes, and she couldn't bear to say any more, so she had to change her words again.

"I'll go and talk to the prince." 90 Literature Network

Except for being sorry, Luo Qing didn't know what to say anymore, and seemed to have no position.

All the jokes and consolations seem to never appear between the two again, and she once really thought that they would be friends for life, and their vows to put paper kites together in the future seem like yesterday, and they are still vivid.

In fact, it is not difficult to see the Queen Mother, Yan Huai said to the emperor and Luo Qing accompanied Pingyang to see the Queen Mother.

The difficulty is that the Queen Mother doesn't want to see Pingyang, no matter what Pingyang says, does, or cries, she just says a word and lets Pingyang go! She doesn't want to see her!

Pingyang accompanied the Queen Mother for an hour, and she really couldn't stay any longer before she gave up leaving, but Luo Qing, who was one step behind her, was pulled by the Queen Mother's sleeve.

When Pingyang was far away and couldn't see it, she said: "Help the mourning family take care of Pingyang, this is what you owe Pingyang!" ”

Luo Qing turned around, looked directly at the Queen Mother's cloudy and reddened eyes, and replied seriously: "If I can, I will protect Pingyang." ”

The Queen Mother let go of the hand holding Luo Qing's sleeve and said, "If you take care of Pingyang, when you have to deal with the Queen Mother, the people from the Mourning family will send you evidence." ”

Luo Qing didn't expect the Queen Mother to have a hand, but she didn't say anything, and when she saw that she let go of the hand that was grabbing her sleeve, she turned around and left, just turned a corner and saw Pingyang who was already in tears.

She had apparently heard it.

Luo Qing stepped forward and tentatively took her into her arms, but fortunately she did not struggle.

The New Year is here, and everywhere is booming, Rao has just experienced such a major event as a traitor forcing the palace, and the capital is still as prosperous as if nothing has happened.

The matter of the Empress Dowager has still not been resolved, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are still panicked, but there are words to say that although they admonish every day, they dare not force the emperor too much to release the Empress Dowager.

And the queen's body is also getting worse day by day.

On this day, Luo Qing finally persuaded Yan Huai to enter the palace to see the queen.

"It's the first day of the Lunar New Year, but I'm glad you came to see me."

After the queen said this, she coughed violently, and the colorful butterfly on the side hurriedly handed the Jinpa, and she took it with a trembling hand, and actually coughed up a ball of blood.

Luo Qing knew that the queen was afraid that her life would be short, and she really saw a different state of mind.

Caidie couldn't stand it anymore and knelt on the ground with a 'plop'.

"Princess, please, you don't remember the villain, save my mother, my mother used to treat you well, I ...... My mother didn't hurt you in the end......"

"Butterflies!"

The queen reprimanded Caidie and coughed violently, and for a moment only two people were left in the room, coughing and crying one after another.

Luo Qing sighed, got up and poured a glass of water for the queen mother, and helped her drink it, so she felt better.

"Caidie, it seems that Ruqing saved me first, if it weren't for her, I wouldn't have survived for so long."

Luo Qing never said a word, but gently pinched the queen's wrist to check the queen's pulse.

"It's not that I don't want to save it, it's true...... There's no way out......"

He was already injured, and there was still poison left in his body......

"Shu Zhaoyi also begged Doctor Liu to come and show me, Caidie is just unwilling, everyone has to die one day, what is there."

The queen even smiled when she said this.

Caidie wanted to say something, but was stopped by the queen.

"There are some things in this palace that I want to talk to Prince Yi and Princess Yi alone."

Caidie was a little hesitant, but seeing the queen's unquestionable attitude, she had to take a group of palace people to the outer hall and wait.

"Ruqing, I didn't expect you to come to see me."

The queen's face was calm, just like when Luo Qing first saw her, as if nothing had happened.

"I just want to ask, why did you make this choice after hesitating for so long?"

"I am the emperor's wife and the mother of a country in the Great Apocalypse, what I want is the stability of the Great Apocalypse, I believe that Your Majesty will be a Ming monarch, in fact, ......"

The queen looked directly at Luo Qing.

"I'm also selfish, I want Your Majesty to remember me, and I want to ...... Earn a life for my Ming family. ”

"Your Majesty, you know everything, I used to think that Your Majesty didn't know, in fact, he knows everything, he is not a puppet, the hidden dragon is in the abyss, and one day he can soar in the nine heavens."

Luo Qing looked at the queen, looking at the light in her eyes that had never been before, and suddenly realized that what the queen wanted had always been the emperor's heart, but the emperor didn't give it to her, so she always looked at herself with envy.

The Queen's words are not finished.

"And that night, the emperor mentioned this matter to me, and I understood that it was time for me to make up my mind......"

She said that she was a little anxious, and began to cough up blood again, which was obviously very uncomfortable at this time, and her bloodless face was coughed red by her.

Seeing this, Luo Qing hurriedly poured her a cup of hot water again, and only calmed down when she calmed down.

"Niangniang, you are not feeling well, so I won't talk about it today."

"Don't ......"

The queen wrapped the coughed up blood into the brocade and pulled Luo Qing's sleeve with one hand.

"I'm afraid...... I don't have much to live...... Ruqing, bring me more blood and tears, I want to see it......"
