Mingyue walked to the backyard with the child in her arms, she knew that she had to stay away from this place and not let the child be frightened by his father.

In her memory, he had never been so calm, like a distant mountain.

But the calmer he was, the more he was on the verge of an outburst of rage.

A few years ago, when he was rescued for just a month, his injuries had not yet healed, and when he heard the news, he began to lose his temper when he came back, smashing everything he had at hand.

In the three years she has been married to Ji Yan, she has never seen him look so out of shape.

And it was that night that he drank a lot of wine, and kept muttering to himself: "Why did you betray me, why! ”

And who the object of this questioning is, she doesn't know, but she doesn't want to know either.

She just felt sorry for him, but she worked hard to clear this alienation, she Princess Mingyue was his wife, even if they were forced to be together for a certain purpose, but now, there is no one who can force them.

It was also enough time for him to see his true heart.

And this time he was angry, but because he knew that he was going to be killed? Or is it because they couldn't conceive a child before?

But she thinks it's not like it.

His calm anger was very similar to the night he was drunk.

Sure enough, when she was in the backyard, she had already heard the sound of the smashed vase in the front hall.

"Mother, what was that sound just now?" Huan'er in her arms asked.

"It should be someone who broke the bottle by mistake, it's okay, mother will take you to play, okay?"

"yes, okay." Huan'er nodded obediently.

Ji Yan vented his anger wantonly, if he didn't smash something, he would feel that he was going to be angry.

He wasn't angry that his mother was going to kill him, when Roy gave up on him, he had already been ruthlessly killed by them at that moment, how could he ask for anything?

But what he didn't expect was ...... The person he has always loved and thought deeply about, and he can't cut it to his bones, is the one who really wants to kill him.

It was a game that deceived him at the beginning.

No wonder she can give up herself so easily, no wonder she even does not hesitate to destroy her appearance with her own hands in order to gain her trust. And they have not been able to have children, presumably it is something she has done quietly.

"Ah Qi, you are so ruthless. Cruel to yourself, and to me—"

His hands trembled.

For a while, I actually felt dizzy and unsteady on my feet.

He staggered down in his chair and looked at the empty and cold hall. The mess on the ground is his anger after he vents, and what about after the anger?

He felt so desolate.

Ah Qi was the only one who was good to him, and she once said: "If you can become a king, you will definitely be a generation of Ming monarchs." ”

What is this?

What is she!

has reached this point, but it still occupies his heart, and for several years, the figure that has been lingering has entangled with him and dragged him to hell.

"Hahaha!!"

He looked up to the sky and laughed.

"You didn't kill me, that's why you didn't come back with me, you are greedy for life and afraid of death, you know that you can't make a deal, and you are even more worried that the king will expose the purpose you have been hiding, so you choose to stay in Muyi Kingdom, it turns out that this is your purpose!"

He had thought about the reasons why she had turned her back on him countless times, but he had never thought about it.

Rage, resentment, resentment, and when all these emotions are accumulated in one place, all that is left is endless cold.

The door opened, and a man walked in slowly, carefully avoiding the debris on the ground. He closed his eyes and felt the soft clothes with a fragrant fragrance draped over his body, a familiar smell like an epiphany blooming in the night.

He grabbed her hand.

"Sir." Mingyue's voice came.

"I'm feeling so much better now. Anyway. He patted her hand lightly, and she helped Ji Yan to stand up.

"There's still a lot of work to do, and it's not time to continue to be depressed here." He turned to look at the mess, and then looked at Mingyue's worried eyes, he felt more guilty in his heart, for so long, he had been lukewarm to Mingyue.

And after a lot of wind and rain, going around and around, only those who stay by their side are the ones who really care about him.

"We're tired, let's go rest."

He took off the fur she had draped over herself, and then draped it on her: "The night is cold, and Madame must take care of her body." ”

Mingyue saw that he no longer dodged her eyes, but stood in front of her, she believed that he was caring from the heart, not the dogmatic and unchanged tone of the past.

After so much time, he finally saw her dedication and saw her love for him.

She held back the tears that welled up, and nodded happily at the tip of her nose: "Uh-huh, uh-huh!" ”

And reform is not an easy thing, even with the proposal of the three princes, coupled with the advice of some ministers in the court, although the current emperor has a little vigilance, but it has also been strongly opposed by the conservative forces in the court.

They are unwilling to give up the benefits they have now, and they reprimand those courtiers who have admonished them, the three princes occupy a part of the power, but the support they can always get is limited.

But this small fire of the prairie also wanted to try to illuminate the dark road, and among the people, new talk began to arise, and the talk of reform began to circulate among the people.

This received the rapid spread of those ordinary people and scholars who took the family and the country as their own responsibility, and for a time it also set off a storm of public opinion, and the people's aspirations soon formed a force to support reform.

But those wealthy businessmen are naturally opposed, and the storm of reform has not only set off waves in the court, but also in full swing in the world.

It was a hard-fought battle, and the invisible smoke of gunpowder filled the Roy Kingdom, and after more than a year of fighting, a popular uprising had formed, and the emperor had to accept it and try to carry out reforms.

However, in the process of implementing the reform, the class contradictions were intensified, which was certainly beneficial to the lower classes, but greatly consumed the middle and upper classes supported by wealth.

This kind of reform is just a change of way to continue to exploit in the skin of reform, which caused the dissatisfaction of the reformers, and the contradictions intensified again, so when both sides were dissatisfied, the first battle of the inner palace broke out.

The first combat reformers were deposed by the hundreds.

In the three years of implementing the reform, he, as the biggest force on the reform side, was also under huge pressure from all sides, and when his hard work came to naught overnight, he had to begin to wonder if this reform method could really work.

The third prince came to find Ji Yan.

He hadn't been looking for him for a long time, partly because of who he was, and partly because he feared that he would be shaken.

"But I am still grateful to you for using the power of public opinion to make Wang accept the reform plan."

"But it's still a failure, isn't it?" Ji Yan kept wiping the sword body hanging on the wall, and the streamer overflowing from the sword reflected his tall and resolute eyebrows.

Failed.

This is something that Ji Yan has foreseen for a long time.

The contradictions he could see were far from being eliminated by such easy reforms, and the Roy kingdom had already proved to be rotten a long time ago, when its power began to decline and it was coveted by other vassal states, and if it wanted to be treated, it had to be scraped and bled out, rather than painlessly applied medicine.

"If you know that we are going to fail, why did you insist on letting me carry out the reform in the first place?"

Ji Yan pulled out the sword with a bang.

"If I don't let Uncle Huang see how rotten our court is, how can you change your mind?"

"Change your mind?" The third prince was a little stunned.

"Your coming to look for me this time means that your mood is already shaking, isn't it?" Ji Yan began to wave his sword in front of him and danced: "The world is a furnace, where is the dome, a hundred miles of war, frying lives, Zeguo Jiangshan into the war, what is the plan of the people." ”

"You've been waiting, and you haven't given up?"

"For me, it's never me giving up or not, it's whether the world needs me or not, I've never been a king, anyone can be a king, and what I want is peace in the world, Xuanhuang Qingjing. So much for! ”

"It's a peaceful world, Xuanhuang Qingjing!" The third prince laughed instead: "What you said is righteous Ling Ran, but I've heard enough of this kind of words, if this is really the case, why do you want to lurk for so long to convince me!" ”

"When have I ever convinced Uncle Huang?" Ji Yan put away his sword unhurriedly: "The reason why you are always wary of me is because you have a preconceived idea of my identity, and my nephew and I have never said anything about seizing power and usurping the throne, right?" ”

The third prince was stunned.

He was in a stalemate with Ji Yan for a moment, and finally couldn't help sighing: "It's my ......"

"You always subconsciously compare me to my brother and have the idea that I will threaten his position, but I have no power here, no one knows my identity except you, if I want to rebel, how can I put myself in such a situation."

The body of the third prince fell.

He understood what Ji Yan meant.

“…… I'll try again, and in any case, even if it's a death sentence, I'm going to get those ministers out. ”

"I advise you not to act like this." Ji Yan said: "My brother's reform started under pressure from public opinion is not supported and recognized by his heart, your advice is useless, why bother asking for trouble now." ”

"What do you mean?"

"Lord Wang, why don't you start with the Queen Mother's side?" Ji Yan said: "The Queen Mother is a force on the side of the Zhenguo Gong, if you can win it over, it is much better than if you are difficult to support it yourself." ”
