Chapter 43: Meet the Empress

This Lin is also a little self-aware! Feng thought so.

"Qingwu is just a child, and occasionally willful, you are a mother, why are you still angry with her?" Helan Chi smiled and hugged Lin's shoulder, "Let her stay alone in this land of tigers and wolves, and face everything alone, can you really put your mind at ease?" ”

Lin Shi broke away from his arms, and Huo Ran got up, his face already gloomy.

"Hmph, let's talk about it, you're the one who can't bear to be prosperous and rich, right? I've been telling you to leave here all these years, but you always have all kinds of excuses, you can't bear your flowery lady, don't you? ”

He Lanchi hurriedly walked over to explain.

"Rou'er, you misunderstood, if I can go with you, of course I can't ask for it, but you also know that now I am an official of the imperial court and the son-in-law of Marquis Wenyuan, and my status is different from before."

"If I elope with you, not only will Marquis Wenyuan and Duke Dingguo not let us go, but even the imperial court will send people to hunt us down, do you want to spend the rest of your life in exile?"

Lin's body twisted and didn't start.

"The world is so big, let's find a place where no one knows to live, how can we go into exile?"

"The world is so big, it is not the king's land, as long as we are still in the Great Yan Kingdom, you and I will not be able to hide." Helan Chi grabbed Lin's shoulders and pulled her over.

"I'm nothing, but I don't want to hurt you."

Lin saw that Helan Chi's tone was sincere and his face was gentle, and he finally eased his expression.

"Do you and I have to live like this for the rest of our lives?"

"No, don't worry, in a few years, when I ascend to the position above 10,000 people under that person, and there is no need to take Wenyuan Marquis and Dingguo Gong in my eyes, you and I can stand together openly."

When he said this, Helan Chi's tone was high, and his words were full of ambition.

Lin only thought that he was coaxing himself to be happy, and punched him in the chest, and said angrily: "I'm afraid you have to wait for the next life, right?" ”

"What, Rou'er doesn't believe it?"

"Your ability, I believe it, but in addition to ability, the court depends more on your background and background, you are just the son-in-law of Marquis Wen Yuan, not his son, the position you just said, even if it is your turn, it will not be your turn!"

Listening to her ridiculous words, Helan Chi was a little annoyed.

Reaching out and pinching her chin, he said in a deep voice, "One day, you will understand that you are wrong." ”

Lin began to be a little curious: "Oh? Have you climbed into some kind of power again? ”

This question was also what Feng Qing, who was eavesdropping on the roof, wanted to hear, and when she pricked up her ears and wanted to listen to He Lanchi's answer, the person who came was his teasing.

"I have more important things to do now."

"Oops, you slow down......"

Soon, an indescribable voice came, Feng Qingfang hurriedly covered the tiles, glanced at Jiang Mingche, who was embarrassed beside him, and said seriously: "We can go." ”

"Don't listen anymore?"

What?

Feng Qingfang almost scared his jaw off.

This guy looks honest and honest, how can he still have such a habit?

Immediately, seeing the corners of his mouth hooked and his eyes full of smiles, Feng Qingfang realized that this guy was actually teasing himself, so he sank his face and said, "You can see enough of yourself!" ”

Jumped off the roof and walked away.

Jiang Mingche smiled indulgently, shook his head and chased after him.

The two of them rode back to the Guogong Mansion.

At the corner of the street, Feng jumped out of the carriage wildly, threw down a "thank you", waved his hand and prepared to leave.

"Frivolous!" Jiang Mingche suddenly stopped her, "I'll send you in." ”

"No need, you can go back."

Feng Qingfang didn't want to give Jiang Mingche the wrong thoughts, so he immediately refused, and then climbed over the wall and entered the backyard without looking back.

Jiang Mingche lowered his head, and it was difficult to hide his loneliness after all.

Frivolous, frivolous, how can I make you forgive me?

Yunzhou, barracks.

In the military tent, Mu Liancheng was sitting in front of the bookcase to deal with military and political affairs, his ink-like eyebrows habitually frowned slightly, but his eyebrows were indifferent.

Dayou walked in quickly from outside, hugged his fists and said, "Your Highness, King Wu Yun, the prisoner of Xiyi, has brought it." ”

"Come in." Mu Liancheng nodded, but his eyes did not take off the official document in his hand.

After a while, an unkempt and bearded sturdy man pushed in, he was bound to his upper body, and while struggling, he glared angrily at the young man above, shouting: "Let go of this king, let go!" ”

"I've been hungry for three days and I'm honest! On your knees! Eryou couldn't help but say, and raised his foot and kicked him the knee socket.

The King of Wu Yun was forced to kneel.

Mu Liancheng put down the official document at this time, looked up, with a seemingly absent smile on his face, and said: "It was you who made a fuss to see the palace, and now that you are here, you kick your nose and face again, but why?" ”

King Wu Yun snorted coldly: "This king heard that your Dayan Kingdom is a state of etiquette, and you have always treated guests like guests and treated them with courtesy, but Your Highness imprisoned me in prison and didn't give me food, what is the reason?" ”

"If you are a guest, you are a guest of our court." Mu Liancheng smiled, "But are you King Wu Yun a guest?" You led the Xiyi soldiers to burn, kill, loot and destroy the lives of our country, you are a robber! ”

"Now that you are the defeated subordinate of this palace, this palace did not push you out and behead you, it is already merciful, you still want to be my guest?"

"You ......" King Wu Yun knew that he was at a loss, and it was not easy to argue, but he was still unconvinced, "Then if you don't behead this king, or it's inconvenient to let it go, what's the point of keeping it locked up like this?" Do you Dayans like to starve their captives to death? ”

Mu Liancheng got up from his seat, rubbed his wrist, which was sore from writing for too long, and smiled kindly.

"It's not that the people of Dayan like it, it's just a little habit of the palace, the palace heard that the prince can eat more than a dozen bowls of rice at a time, then you fall into the hands of the palace, but it's unlucky."

King Wu Yun glared at him through gritted teeth, cursing him more than a dozen times in his heart.

He was born with an amazing amount of food, and he was so hungry that he didn't eat a meal, and now he hasn't eaten a drop of rice for three days, and he has no strength for a long time, and he can't help but feel sad when he thinks of being starved to death, and it is more uncomfortable than death.

"What the hell do you have to do to give me a happy death?"

Mu Liancheng walked over, and a smile appeared on his handsome face.

"As long as you agree to one condition in this palace, this palace will spare you from death."

"Really?" King Wu Yun's eyes lit up, "What conditions?" ”

"Write a letter back to your brother, ask him to ransom you with a million gold, and in addition, send envoys to the capital of Dayan to negotiate peace with our emperor, and promise that from now on there will be no more troops to invade the land of Dayan."

Mu Liancheng's words were full of non-committal beaks.

"A million gold?" King Wu Yun's eyes widened, shocked and angry, there is nothing difficult to negotiate peace, but Xiyi is poor, where will the millions of gold be raised?

"Your Highness knows that my king can't come up with so much money, isn't this deliberately embarrassing?"

Mu Liancheng turned around twice, returned to his seat, and said with a smile: "This palace doesn't care, this palace only knows that your King Wu Yun is the number one general in Xiyi, and your life is definitely worth a million gold in the heart of King Xiyi. ”

"Of course, it's up to you whether to write this letter or not, and this palace won't force you."

King Wu Yun almost crushed his teeth, and his face full of flesh twitched with anger.

"Okay, I'll write."

Mu Liancheng motioned for the second tour to loosen the bindings, and then handed over the pen and paper.

After King Wu Yun finished writing the letter, he personally looked at it carefully, and thought that there was nothing wrong, so he showed a satisfied smile.

"Now, King Wu Yun is the guest of honor in this palace, come here, take the prince down to freshen up and eat!"

After the person was taken down, Dayou stepped forward and asked: "Your Highness, this King Wu Yun is infinitely powerful and very violent, I am afraid that I will not be honest, so I should send some more people to watch it, so as not to cause accidents." ”

"Don't worry, he won't run." Mu Liancheng said calmly, without the slightest doubt about his judgment.

"But ......"

"Let's leave for Beijing tomorrow and get ready."

Da You had no choice but to retreat.

Mu Liancheng walked to the door of the military tent with his hands in his hands, looked up at the cloudless sky, and seemed to see a picturesque smiling face in that blue.

I don't know what that girl is doing at this moment?

"Ah~"

Feng, who was basking in the sun in the courtyard, pulled the clothes on his body tightly, rubbed his nose, and wondered: "It's strange, under this big sun, there is no wind, why do you still sneeze?" ”

She had been lying on the bench for a long time, she was already a little drowsy, and when her upper and lower eyelids were fighting, the maid hurriedly ran over and said, "Miss, someone has come to the palace, and the queen has summoned you." ”

"What? The Queen? Feng sat up wildly, and his sleepiness suddenly dissipated.

Queen Yang is Mu Liancheng's mother, she and the original owner don't seem to have met alone, and they haven't intersected, why did she suddenly summon her today?

What's the trouble?

"Miss, go quickly, the waiter is still waiting."

"Okay, just go." Feng Qingfang had no choice, so he had to change his clothes and hurried to the main hall.

Before leaving, Feng Heng solemnly advised: "When you arrive in the palace, you must abide by the rules, don't offend the queen's mother, make jokes, and embarrass your father." ”

Feng Qingfang remembered the stupid appearance of the original owner before, which did add a lot of gray to Feng Heng's face, and it couldn't be blamed for his bad words.

So he nodded and said, "Yes, I remember it rashly." ”

The waiter surnamed Liu, who came to pass on Yizhi's will, was deeply trusted by the queen, and had served her for almost 20 years.

"Father-in-law Liu, why did the queen summon me to the palace? Can you reveal it? Feng asked with a flattering face.

Gonggong Liu smiled: "Wait a while to see Niangniang, won't the third girl know?" ”

Feng pouted lightly and didn't ask more.

When she arrived at Deyunhua Palace, Gonggong Liu led her into the dormitory, and went to the inner room to report to the queen.

In just a moment's time, a middle-aged woman wearing a red phoenix robe and a phoenix crown came out.

Although her face was a little tired and sickly, she smiled kindly and behaved gracefully, giving people a sense of affinity and atmosphere.

"Feng Qingfang greets the queen mother!"
