"My lord, the queen has summoned me."

Not long after the words of the feast had not fallen, there were guards outside the door to report.

Mu Guanqing's eyes were sharp, and he smiled and said, "You are accurate." ”

"The queen mother is now at the end of her rope, and she can't wait for the female official to return to Beijing, so she is naturally eager to win you over."

This matter is not only feasting, Mu Guanqing can naturally figure it out. She is in a high position, and she finally returned to Beijing, and she is the object that everyone wants to woo, and the queen is a woman with her, so it is naturally better to attack.

It is not difficult to see from the words of Yan Xin Mu Guanqing that this Miss Liu is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and other purposes are not pure, the water in Kyoto is deep, and everyone wants to take this opportunity to come in and get a piece of the pie.

"It seems that Miss Liu's drunkard doesn't mean to drink."

"Isn't it selfish that the female official has no selfish intentions when she returns to Beijing?"

The two asked and answered, which seemed to Lu Mang to be-for-tat, but they each had a spectrum in their hearts.

"This official is dedicated to Tianyu, how can he have selfish intentions." Mu Guanqing made a gesture of invitation, and let Yanxin step out of the door first, which can be regarded as taking care of Yanxin's feelings as a noblewoman.

Yan Xin noticed this small action, smiled and turned to walk towards the door, and suddenly had a good impression of this female official.

"Yes."

walked all the way to the door of the prison, Mu Guanqing looked at her, first sent her to her carriage, and told the coachman a few words, and then boarded the carriage herself.

In the eyes of outsiders, it was like Mu Guanqing inviting him to go to the palace together, but Liu Yan was disrespectful.

"Miss Liu is now a celebrity in Xunyang City, if she does it step by step, it will be smooth, so why do you want to do something that I'm afraid of thankless?"

On the carriage, Mu Guanqing expressed the same questions as others.

It seems that Qin Xuanlang's superficial article is doing well, everyone thinks that he and himself are caring people, and naturally there will be no others to win over the Liu family, but Yanxin wants to tell others about it.

"What if I say that the person in my heart is not what it seems?"

Thinking about the deeds of Mu Guanqing and Pu Chenming, Yanxin felt that this reason was the most acceptable to her.

"Then I understand, the word love, a lot of thoughts."

Mu Guanqing pursed her lips, took out a new coat from under the carriage, and changed it directly.

Seeing Yan Xin's surprised gaze, she generously explained: "After all, I just came out of the prison, and there is a smell of blood on my body, so it's not good to bump into the queen." ”

"It's not without reason that a female official can get this high position." Yan Xin said in a deep voice.

From the north gate of the palace, the queen's bedroom has to pass through the emperor's hall, and it is not difficult to see a man's figure kneeling outside the hall.

"Who is this?" She asked her father-in-law who was leading the way in front of her.

The father-in-law didn't care, and pointed out in a cold and direct tone: "Who else can there be, the concubine Li Chopping Immortal." ”

"This ......"

Didn't the colt be an official in a foreign country, and he rushed back so quickly?

It seems that Qin Xuanlang should have made a heavy hand, otherwise the Li family would not have been able to act so quickly.

"The second prince also somehow, yesterday in front of the ministers questioned the identity of the fourth princess, and also cited the letter records of Ying Guifei and her cousin in previous years, thinking that the princess would be more auspicious this time."

That father-in-law is also a mouthful and tongue-in-law, and I don't know if this is for Yan Xin or Mu Guanqing.

However, judging from today's incident, it is really because she is sorry for Qin Huai that she suffered innocently, if it is possible, Yanxin will definitely help.

"The colt is really a dedicated person."

The palace maids who passed by were muttering quietly when they saw this scene, and Yan Xin could only think quietly in her heart.

In order to calm the conflict in the court, His Majesty can only hand over this matter to the Criminal Department for trial, and the princess is still a daughter before it is found out, but she is grounded, and the horse has to pretend to be when she hears the news, no matter what the reason.

It was only a few days before the day of the banquet, and the banquet heart stepped on this bluestone floor tile again, and he could still recall the scenery of Qin Huai's forced questioning that day, and this change really came too quickly.

"Just go in with the two of you."

After the communication, the queen did not question the companions of Yanxin, but invited them to go in together.

There are no idle people in the queen's palace today, it seems that the reason for this summons is the same as what Yan Xin guessed, and the queen is ready to persuade Mu Guanqing with reason.

But his appearance also happened to break the queen's original plan. Before Yanxin walked in a few steps, the queen came to make a preemptive strike.

"What, is Miss Liu here to make amends to this palace today?"

The two of them didn't rush to answer, but just asked for peace first.

"Chen Mu Guanqing has seen the queen's mother."

"The courtiers see the queen's mother, and I wish the queen's mother flowers will bloom for a hundred days and never wither."

As he spoke, Yan Xin took out two rosters from his arms and presented them, and the palace maid took them and brought them to the queen.

The queen was not satisfied with the banquet's invitation, she flipped through the roster in her hand, frowned, and said, "What do you mean?" ”

One of the rosters was nothing else, it was the one that Luan'er had given her before, but it was more detailed. The other record records the officials and gifts that have been close to the Liu family in recent years.

She first showed her sincerity, and then everything could only be done to obey the destiny of heaven.

"The courtier, the queen of the guards, is worried, and she is also concerned about the condition of His Royal Highness the Prince." Yan Xin showed his usual attitude and cared.

"The prince is very good, you don't need to worry."

The queen is not angry, in her opinion, Liu Yanxin is here to sneer today.

"Why should the queen refuse to be thousands of miles away, today's adult daughter came to solve problems for the queen. I heard from the imperial doctor that the prince's stroke was difficult to treat, and even if he recovered, there was a possibility of recurrence. ”

Yan Xin's words were extremely harsh, and soon the queen was enraged, and she stood up and almost threw the roster on Yan Xin's face, but after thinking about it, she calmed down her anger and sat down.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Niangniang is the queen, the mother of a country, and her identity is already extremely glorious. If you become the queen mother many years later, then your Ye family can continue to shine for a hundred years, but if you make a mistake at such an important time, you will be the sinner of the Ye family. ”

Yan Xin said these disrespectful words again and again, no matter how much the queen cared about her identity, she must not be able to help it.

"Liu Yanxin! Don't think that if you are the daughter of a general, this palace will not offend you, as the mother of the country, this palace can still demote you to a commoner! ”

Yan Xin did not show any fear, and immediately knelt down and continued: "The identity of the courtier is not important, the important thing is that the courtier can help you sit firmly in the back seat...... I just don't know if the mother is willing to abandon the car to protect the handsome......"

Originally, Mu Guanqing maintained an attitude of watching the play against Yanxin who was not afraid of death, until Yanxin said that she would abandon the car to protect her handsome, Mu Guanqing had already fully understood, and she couldn't help but admire Liu Yanxin's boldness in her heart.

The queen also suddenly understood, today Liu Yanxin took out Qin Xuanlang's accusation again, and handed over the handle of the Liu family, this is to win herself over.

She didn't say anything, and Yan Xin found an opportunity to pout in one go.

"Now that the second prince has a lot of power, he also regards you as a thorn in his side, what will happen to you if he is in power? What will happen to the Ye family? Look at the third prince again, although the biological mother was taken back to the palace, but after all, there is a stain on the body and mind of the king, and he is by no means a candidate for this posterior, if the queen is willing to give up what she has now and accept new chips, she can naturally rest easy. ”

The meaning of the banquet is clear, the prince is no longer useful, although the biological mother of the second prince is born humblely, she is still alive, it is not impossible for the mother to be expensive with the son, but the third prince has nothing at present, and it is the most needy time......

Now it must be difficult for the queen to give up her own son to help others, and she just wants to fight.

"What's in it for you?" The queen asked the key.

Yan Xin replied sincerely: "The Liu family is currently in charge of the heavy army, but it does not mean that it will never die, and the courtiers also want to ask for a family affair from you for my two young brothers." ”

If the Liu family marries the Ye family, it will be both prosperity and loss, as long as the queen does not fall for a day, then the Liu family can also retain military power for a long time. If the queen has something, the Liu family will not be left alone, how can such a bargaining chip be drawn.

"Interesting, so even Master Mu was rebelled by you?"

Seeing that Mu Guanqing had been standing aside without saying a word, the queen couldn't help but ask her tone.

Mu Guanqing was named, and naturally said ambiguously: "Niangniang said that she laughed, Weichen was finally Tianyu, isn't it the same for whom he is loyal." ”

The situation gradually eased, and Yan Xin also said another demand of his own. "It's just that the courtiers still have something to ask for."

"Let's talk about it." Hearing Liu Yanxin's request, the queen was naturally curious, and asked closely.

"When the courtiers came to Beijing to talk with the four princesses, they were very happy and hated each other, and the courtiers hoped that the queen would be able to keep the four princesses safe and sound."

But this incident also stumped the queen, confusing the imperial heir is a serious crime, even if he is the queen, there is no way to stop it.

"Do you know that if Qin Huai's identity is really boring, no one can save her."

"So this matter of the courtiers can only come to beg the queen mother, the mother should know how much Your Majesty once loved the fourth princess, if you can persuade one or two among the many fallen stones today, there will be a reward in the future."

Yan Xin knew that this matter might be Qin Xuanlang's trap, but she didn't want to continue to see innocent people die for her.

The queen sighed and reluctantly accepted her request, "Love is deep and hateful, this palace does its best." ”

"The minister is willing to share the worries of the mother, and I implore the mother to approve the minister's review of this matter."

Mu Wanqing has no say on the side, but she can just use this matter to avoid the sharp blade in the court, why not.

"Okay, the palace still has to think about today's affairs, you all go down." If the queen doesn't say it, it can be regarded as a default, and she really needs to consider it if she feasts her heart.

"Since this is the case, the minister will retire first, and the minister still needs to report to His Majesty after finishing the case of the old scene."

Mu Wanqing retreated, followed by Yan Xin, and the two of them both withdrew from the queen's bedroom.

On the palace road that turned back, the two were silent for a long time, and suddenly Mu Guanqing looked straight ahead and asked.

"General Liu has fulfilled his duties since he became an official, so how can he have close contacts with other officials in private?"

"See through it, don't say it."

It's not that the people in the palace can't find the evidence of his father's crime, but that his father has no evidence of guilt at all, this roster is just a fabrication made up by Yanxin out of thin air, even if the queen doesn't cooperate with her today to poke things out, Yanxin can use this evidence to fight back.
