Chapter 54: Mu'er

Ye Tingfeng couldn't hear the answer given by Emperor Jianning, so he pretended to be angry, got down from Emperor Jianning's arms with red lips, ran outside the study, and hid behind the flying immortal cover with a bright yellow gauze tent.

She waited for Emperor Jianning to chase her out, or call her Mu'er.

But no, Emperor Jianning didn't chase her out, nor did he call her name.

After waiting for half a quarter of an hour, Ye Tingfeng secretly opened a corner of the gauze tent, bit his lip, and looked inside with a smile.

Emperor Jianning sat there untouched, his left hand slightly raised, as if he was still hugging her waist.

Ye Tingfeng raised his eyebrows, pulled a thumb-sized bead from the hanging auspicious knot, and threw it in the direction of Emperor Jianning.

The beads hit the carved table and made a soft 'pop' sound.

Ye Tingfeng hurriedly turned his back and covered his cherry lips and snickered. After a while, she still didn't hear the sound of Emperor Jianning walking, so she pulled off a bead and threw it backhanded.

I didn't hear the sound of the beads hitting the ground or hitting things, and I heard that Feng hid it again in the flying immortal cover with a smile.

After hiding for a long time, I still didn't hear the voice of Emperor Jianning when I heard Feng at night. Unable to hold back any longer, she turned her head to look.

It was dark in front of her, and she crashed straight into Emperor Jianning's arms.

Emperor Jianning laughed heartily, hugged Ye Tingfeng's slender waist with his left hand, held a bead in his right hand, and asked, "Mu'er, why are you so naughty?" is even naughtier than Yu'er. ”

Ye Tingfeng rubbed his forehead that was knocked red, and said to Emperor Jianning complainingly, "Suddenly appeared behind me, and he didn't even make a ......sound."

"Who hid it first?" Emperor Jianning raised his eyebrows and asked.

Ye Tingfeng bit the tip of his tongue and raised his head to look at Emperor Jianning, his big watery eyes were rolling around, and he didn't say a word.

The question she asked, Emperor Jianning has not yet answered. She knew that she was stupid to ask, but she still wanted to hear Emperor Jianning say it himself.

In front of Emperor Jianning, she is not the queen of a country, not the mother of a prince, not a plotter who can control life and death in conversation and laughter, she is just a spoiled little woman.

Looking at Ye Tingfeng's eyes full of expectations, Emperor Jianning replied with a chuckle, "Okay, for a lifetime." ”

The soft words floated to the ears of Ye Tingfeng, like a warm breeze in spring, with the fragrance of a hundred flowers.

The corners of his lips were raised, and the smile of the night maple became more and more brilliant, and the eyes like mountain springs flashed with bright light, like the brightest stars in the sky.

Emperor Jianning could give Ye Tingfeng anything she wanted, but he couldn't give her a lifetime.

Or, the life that Emperor Jianning can give is too short, so short that it is fleeting.

On the afternoon of the seventeenth day of the first month of the tenth year of Jianning, Emperor Jianning was watching the excerpts when the Gu poison attacked again. He looked at the black blood that fell on the fold and was stunned.

He took out the brocade from his sleeve and tried to wipe the blood away, but when he saw the unusually ugly golden dragon, he put it down. Gently wiping the corner of his lower lip with the back of his hand, he raised his voice outside the hall and called, "Lu Shi." ”

Lu Shi walked in from the outside, and when he looked up, he saw Emperor Jianning bowing his head slightly, his face was pale, and there were blood stains on the corners of his mouth, so he hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, the slave will go to Guan Ju Palace to pass on the queen's mother." ”

For a long time, just when Lu Zhi thought that Emperor Jianning had lost consciousness, Emperor Jianning slowly spoke, "Spread the witch Fengtian." ”

In the Guan Ju Palace, Ye Tingfeng, who had used wind and cold medicine, was taking a nap.

In her sleep, she heard someone chuckle and called 'Mu'er', she raised the corners of her lips and smiled sweetly, and after replying 'finished Yan Zhe', she suddenly opened her beautiful eyes.

The entrance is empty, the magnificent Guanju Palace, and the afterglow of the setting sun leaks in through the window, draping the furnishings in the hall with a layer of golden veil.

There was a moment of trance in his thoughts, and he was stunned when he looked at the scene in front of him.

She obviously heard Emperor Jianning calling her, very clearly, right next to her ear, gently, softly, with a smile......

But when she opened her eyes, she saw no one.

For no reason, panic is born in the heart. Ye Tingfeng got up to change his clothes and ran to the outside of Guan Ju Palace.

Zhiliu's anxious shout came from behind her, "Queen Mother, you haven't pulled your hair in a bun yet......"

In Jianzhang Palace, there was silence. The sunset on the horizon is fiery red, falling on the golden glazed tiles, dazzling people can't open their eyes.

Ye Tingfeng stood at the door of the Qingxin Palace, gasping for breath, looking at Ning Shi who was kneeling on both sides of the hall door, with a solemn expression, and the panic in his heart was even more victorious.

Did the emperor's Gu poison attack?

Ye Tingfeng wanted to ask Ning Shi Ning if Emperor Jianning's Gu poison had attacked, but she only let out a grunt in her throat and didn't say a word.

Without looking at Ning Shi smiling on the ground, he walked through the empty outer hall and inner hall, step by step, as if walking on the clouds, towards the dormitory.

There were no palace people in the dormitory, and in the incense burner engraved with the flying dragon, wisps of ethereal smoke rose as if in the past, exuding bursts of familiar aroma.

His eyes were locked on the man on the dragon's bed, and Ye Tingfeng's steps became eager.

She said as she ran towards the dragon bed, "Wan Yanzhe, I dreamed that you were calling me, but when I opened my eyes, you were not by my side. ”

Coming to the bed, Ye Tingfeng saw Emperor Jianning's pale face and closed eyes.

With a chuckle in his heart, Ye Tingfeng trembled and put his three fingers on Emperor Jianning's left wrist with his right hand. The skin is warm and the pulse is disturbed.

It was exactly the same as when Emperor Jianning had two Gu poison attacks.

Hearing that Feng was calm, but she was uneasy again, she held Emperor Jianning's wrist tightly, and said loudly outside the dormitory, "Lu Zhi! Smile and smile! I prepare for a brocade quilt, an ice box! ”

I called a few times, but still no one came in.

Just when he heard that Feng wanted to go out to call someone, Wu Fengtian followed behind Lu Shi and walked in from outside the dormitory.

His eyes flickered, and he listened to Feng Feng looking at Wu Fengtian who suddenly appeared.

Lu Zhi knelt down and kowtowed three times to Ye Tingfeng, got up and withdrew.

"Lu Zhi!" Ye Ting Feng shouted at Lu Shi, "Prepare ......"

"No need to prepare......" Wu Fengtian said lightly, his voice slightly hoarse. The right hand that usually holds the folding fan is clenched into a fist behind him, and his knuckles are pale.

Ye Tingfeng refocused his gaze on Wu Fengtian's body, holding Emperor Jianning's hand and began to tremble inexplicably, "Wu Fengtian, what do you mean." ”

Wu Fengtian raised his head to look at the arch bucket on the top of the hall, and after blinking a few times, he said softly, "Mo Mei, haven't you always wanted to know what Gu the emperor has fallen into?" ”

"Did you find Wuyue?" Ye Tingfeng raised his eyebrows and asked, "Where is she?" How to solve this Gu? ”

"It's not Wu Yue, it's Wu Yang who is the one who is going to be Gu." Wu Fengtian turned his back, left his back to Ye Tingfeng, and said in a suppressed voice, "The emperor's one is the Emperor Gu." ”

Every emperor of the Great Moon will be planted with an Emperor Gu by the Wu family. Emperor Gu can strengthen the body, and no poison or Gu can invade it in the slightest. It is only with each Gu poison attack that the body becomes fragile and vulnerable.

And the price paid to get the Emperor Gu was that from the moment the Gu worm was lowered into the body, life and the Gu person were closely linked.

Emperor Xu, the Gu people have three months of lifespan to deal with the aftermath of the funeral, and choose the next patriarch of the Wu family.

When the Gu man died, the emperor had three years to deal with state affairs and choose a king for the big moon.

"Momei, it's been three years." Wu Fengtian didn't dare to look back, he closed his eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "Wu Yang hasn't appeared for three years, and the backlash of the Gu poison has exceeded the scope of the emperor's body......"

Ye Tingfeng looked at Wu Fengtian's back and laughed, but the tears in his eyes rolled down. She trembled her lips and said to Wu Fengtian, "Wu Fengtian, you and Wan Yan Zhe are not children of a few years old, what do you want to deceive me together?" ”

Ye Tingfeng took Emperor Jianning's hand and said to Wu Fengtian, "He is a Gu poison attack, and he will wake up tomorrow evening, he used to be like this." His body temperature will change from extreme cold to extreme heat seven or five times, and he will be fine in three or five days......"

"Mo Mei ......" Wu Fengtian didn't look back, and asked after taking a deep breath, "How can you believe it?" ”

"I don't believe it!" Ye Tingfeng shook his head again and again, but the tears in his eyes couldn't stop falling, "Why should I believe it, he was fine yesterday, and he sat with me to make folds, and said that he would come to see me in Guan Ju Palace at sunset today." Now, he's lying here, his body still warm, but you tell me he wants it, he wants it, he wants it......"

The word death, I can't say it at night. Her eyes were misty with tears, and she couldn't see everything in front of her.

Wu Fengtian gritted his teeth, turned around and walked to Ye Tingfeng's side, grabbed Ye Tingfeng's left wrist and walked out of the dormitory.

"What do you do?" Ye Tingfeng clasped Emperor Jianning's wrist with his right hand, and shouted loudly to Wu Fengtian in panic, "Wu Fengtian, you are presumptuous!" ”

"Momay, now is not the time for you to be willful." Wu Fengtian persuaded with kind words.

Ye listened to Feng shake his head, tears rolling down from the corners of his eyes. She looked back at Emperor Jianning on the dragon bed, and the fingers that were holding Emperor Jianning's wrist turned pale.

She didn't let go, she was afraid that as soon as she let go, everything Wu Fengtian said would become true.

"After Yan Zhe, I have a nightmare......" Ye Feng choked up, and shouted to Emperor Jianning, who was lying motionless on the bed, "Wake me up quickly." ”

Wu Fengtian turned around and ruthlessly broke the right hand that Feng clenched in the night.

"Wu Fengtian, I beg you," Ye Tingfeng's strength was not as strong as Wu Fengtian, she watched Emperor Jianning's hand detach little by little in her hand, and shouted in horror, "I beg you, you let go, you let go......"

In the end, without holding it, Emperor Jianning's wrist slipped out of Ye Tingfeng's hand, crossed a pale arc in the air, and landed heavily on the dragon couch.

Hearing Feng's shouting at night, she opened her eyes and looked at the hands held by Wu Fengtian in horror, stunned.

Wu Fengtian picked up and was stunned and strode towards the study.

Put Ye Tingfeng on the dragon chair and sit down, Wu Fengtian covered his eyes with his right hand, and after his mood calmed down, he said calmly, "Mo Mei, now is not the time for you to be sad, you have to think about the prince, think about the country and the mountains of Dayue." Putting the pen and ink in front of Ye Tingfeng, Wu Fengtian continued, "You know what to do now, the emperor can still drag it out for ten days, and ...... in these ten days."

Looking at the wolf hair that was stuffed with ink in his hand, Ye Tingfeng's brain was blank, and he couldn't think about any questions.

What should she do? Her sky suddenly collapsed without any preparation for her, what should she do?

The dots of black fall, stained on the white rice paper, and moisten the inky plum blossoms.

"You have a plum character in your name, and you have plum blossoms painted on the things you use, so you must be very fond of plum blossoms." Many years ago, when she was still called Mo Mei, Emperor Jianning, who was the king of Jin, said this to her.

Looking at Ye Tingfeng, whose eyes were empty and sad, Wu Fengtian clenched his fist with his right hand and smashed the dragon case hard.

The sound of 'bang' came, and the night heard that Feng's body was shocked, and the pain in his heart came to him.

In the blur of tears, she saw her young self lose her temper and smash the inkstone on the ground, and the angry Emperor Jianning couldn't bear it anymore and slapped her ass.

That was the first time Emperor Jianning beat her, and it was also the last time.

Wu Fengtian turned around and sat on the Taishi chair on one side, closed his eyes and stopped talking. He spent two years preparing and was still flustered, not to mention that Ye Tingfeng had just knew.

Ye Tingfeng put the wolf back on the pen wash of the double dragon play beads, and covered the ink-stained hands on the pale cheeks.

She curled up on the dragon chair, smelling the familiar aroma in her nose, only to feel that her world was gloomy, and everything was colorless.

After a long time, Ye Tingfeng took his hands down, revealing a bloodless face. Wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, she raised her voice and called out to the outside of the hall, "Lu Zhi! ”

Lu Zhi came in, knelt at the feet of Ye Tingfeng, and said, "Queen Mother......"

"Go to the Guan Ju Palace and let Zhiliu bring the phoenix seal of the palace." Choked up, Ye Tingfeng rolled up his sleeves to reveal his white lotus arms, reached out to take the wolf's hair, and picked up the pen and wrote on the rice paper.

Emperor Jianning taught her how to do it, and he had already taught her.

First of all, the Imperial Forest Army was dispatched to cut off the communication between the previous dynasties outside the palace. Then command the capital guards to surround the capital and make it fully prepared. Later, Meng Zizong, Liu An, and He Qing were announced into the palace, and the prince was secretly promoted to the throne.

Taking the phoenix seal handed over by Wu Fengtian, Ye Tingfeng held it tightly with his pale hands and covered it on the secret letter he had just written.

Wu Fengtian said that he cherished it, and hurriedly left with the secret letter.

Ye Tingfeng sat on the dragon chair for a long time, watching the scenery in the Qingxin Hall become hazy as the light dimmed.

Ning Shi walked in softly, blowing the fire fold to palm the lamp.

That dazzling light brought back to life the stunned Ye Tingfeng who was sitting there on the dragon chair. She slammed to her feet and strode back into the dormitory, her waist-length hair flying behind her like an impenetrable net.

"Wan Yan Zhe, I'm scared ......" Ye Tingfeng climbed onto the dragon bed, curled up and lay on Emperor Jianning's side, and after holding Emperor Jianning's left arm tightly in his arms, he cried bitterly, "Can you hug me, can you hug me?" ”

In the dimly lit dormitory, where only one palace lamp was held, only the dripping sound placed on one side made a rustling sound.

Emperor Jianning knew that he would die soon. So he let Wu Fengtian enter the office and occupy a high position. Teach Ye Tingfeng to deal with state affairs, how to deal with emergencies, and analyze the partisan disputes between the DPRK and China. Select good ministers and loyal generals for the crown prince, purge the dynasty, and weaken those families who threaten the court one by one.

Afraid that he didn't have enough time, he even violated the ancestral teachings and asked Wu Fengtian to use Gu on hundreds of officials, holding them firmly in the palm of his hand.

Those who follow the advocacy and the rebellion will die, which minimizes the possibility of chaos in the front dynasty after his death.

As long as Wu Fengtian, who is the prime minister of Zuo and holds the talisman in his hand, has been loyal, all the efforts he has made can be maintained until the prince is in power......

He didn't leave a mess for Ye Tingfeng, he used his last time to take care of everything for Ye Tingfeng, the crown prince, and the big moon country.

The only thing he failed to do was to abolish the ancestral system of father-wife inheritance.

On the fifth day of Emperor Jianning's fall, Ye Tingfeng looked at the secret letter written to her by Meng Zizong and slammed the dragon case, and threw out everything that could be thrown on the side of his hand.

In the secret letter, Meng Zizong proposed that after the crown prince ascended the throne, he would marry the prince and continue to be the queen, and then take charge of the government as the queen.

The prince's nominal biological mother is Xie Yuanxing's granddaughter Xie Ruyu. Ye Tingfeng is just the crown prince's queen mother and adoptive mother.

According to the Dayue ancestral system, she who did not give birth to an heir to Emperor Jianning will marry the next emperor.

After venting, Ye Tingfeng, who was curled up on the dragon chair, looked blank.

Wu Yue walked in step by step from outside the study, looked at the messy study, and stood in the farthest place.

Ye Tingfeng was hoarse and asked Wu Yue, "Didn't you say that you are loyal to the palace?" Then you tell Hongu how Hongu can not marry his own son. ”

Wu Yue appeared in front of Ye Tingfeng on the second day of Emperor Jianning's coma, and at first Ye Tingfeng regarded her as a hope to save Emperor Jianning. After learning that Wu Yue had nothing to do with the Emperor Gu who was backlashed, Ye Tingfeng just wanted to kill her!

If it wasn't for Wu Yue killing Wu Yang, how could Emperor Jianning be lying unconscious on the dragon bed with only a few days to live?

But she couldn't kill Wu Yue, whether it was martial arts or poison, she was at a disadvantage.

"Give birth to an heir for the emperor...... Wu Yue's cold voice came from afar.

Ye heard Feng laugh out loud when he heard this, and then put his right hand on his lower abdomen, crying gloomily.

gave birth to an imperial heir to Emperor Jianning, why didn't she want to! But now, how can she give birth to a child for Emperor Jianning.

Wu Yue's expression was indifferent, she stepped forward and put down a brown porcelain vase on the dragon case, and whispered, "Queen Mother, this is what I can give you, and the rest of the matter depends on Fengtian ......"

Listening to Kaede laugh out loud at night, at first it was just a small laugh, and finally it became an irrepressible laugh.

Emperor Jianning's affairs depend on Wu Fengtian, and the affairs of the court depend on Wu Fengtian, and now, she doesn't want to marry her own son, but also rely on Wu Fengtian......

Wu Fengtian, the most trusted person of Emperor Jianning, trusted so much that he could hand over half of Dayue's country to him.

Wu Fengtian, the most important person in the court, is so important that his words can change the rise and fall of a humerus minister or life and death.

Wu Fengtian, Wu Fengtian......

Wu Fengtian said that Emperor Jianning could drag on for up to ten days in a coma, and after ten days, Emperor Jianning would return to heaven.

When she heard that Feng didn't approve the folding, she sat in the dormitory, her pale right hand interlocked with Emperor Jianning's ten fingers, waiting for the day when her world completely collapsed.

10 days, 15 days, 1 month, 2 months, half a year......

One afternoon in February of the thirteenth year of Jianning, the weather suddenly became cold.

Ning Shi rubbed her hands and walked into the Qingxin Palace, and whispered to Ting Feng, who was sitting behind the dragon case and watched the fold, "Queen Mother, the snow is falling......"

"Falling snow?" Ye Tingfeng raised his head, the steps on his hair swayed slightly, and his eyes fell on the window with the carved dragon.

The windows were covered with white cotton paper, and the dim light showed through, and the outside scene could not be seen.
