The reason why Yan Rongling wanted to be honest in public was so that in case he died, someone would be angry with Mingzhu.

"Therefore, today I am willing to exchange myself as a hostage for the pearl, in order to make up for the pearl, and to prevent the families of the Great Zhou soldiers who fought bloodily from chilling. It's not for the sake of children's personal feelings, please testify! ”

Yan Shaoxun saw that there was a lot of discussion at the scene, and he was angry at what Yan Rongling said.

"Yan Rongling, you don't have to talk about him left and right, I know that you are for Mingzhu. Well, since you're willing to change the pearl, you can come here. ”

Yan Rongling stood in the middle and said with a smile: "Since I came over to change Mingzhu, should you also let Mingzhu come out." In this way, it is only fair for the two of us, one of us to go and one to come. ”

"No, if you're going to play tricks, you've got kung fu."

Yan Shaoxun didn't dare to take risks, but Yan Rongling was not stupid, how could he be willing to fall to the opponent first if he didn't let go of Mingzhu.

At this time, Gu Shiqing came over with a group of people and saluted: "Queen Mother, Crown Prince, this is the wife and concubine and children of King Chu, everyone is here." Please Queen Mother, Prince, decide! ”

Originally, Yan Shaoxun still made arrangements, but the time was too rushed, and he only had time to send his wife and two sons out of the city. Hidden in a village outside the capital, he didn't expect to be found by Gu Shiqing.

Empress Dowager Zhong looked at Gu Shiqing appreciatively, and said to Yan Shaoxun: "Yan Shaoxun, you used Mingzhu to blackmail the mourning family, and now your wife and children are in the hands of the mourning family, what do you think?" ”

Yan Shaoxun looked up to the sky and smiled: "Why does the big husband have no wife?" Why be childless? Queen Mother, you don't have to threaten me with them, and they can't threaten me. If you want to make soup with them, can you give me a piece of the soup? ”

Empress Dowager Zhong was angry, but Yan Rongling was sober and said loudly: "You all heard that Yan Shaoxun is still so unkind to his wife and children. Whether he killed the monarch or me, I hope you can think about it. ”

All of a sudden, many of the Imperial Forest Army were disgusted, and Yan Shaoxun couldn't see it well, so he opened his mouth with an idea.

"Yan Rongling, I will exchange Ye Thirteen for their mother and son."

Yan Shaoxun let go, this is really an unexpected surprise. Gu Fanghua hurriedly said in a loud voice: "Grandmother, prince, quickly agree to change." ”

After some scrambling, the two sides each took twenty steps back, and Fan Min's mother and son and Ye Shisan, standing in the open space that was let out, and walked opposite each other at the same time.

The archers on both sides have already drawn their bows and arrows, and if there is any greasy behavior on that side, they will be doomed together.

But fortunately, the idea of the two sides to exchange hostages is very consistent.

Gu Fanghua was full of excitement, seeing that Ye Shisan had returned to Empress Dowager Zhong safely. Fan Min also brought his two sons to Yan Shaoxun.

"Lord Wang, what's going on?"

Seeing that she is usually dull and serious, she is particular at all times, and she follows the manners of a woman. Now that he was frightened and uneasy, Yan Shaoxun also had ripples in his heart.

"The winner is king, the loser is the villain, needless to say. You and the child go to the side hall to rest first, and everything else is up to me. ”

Yan Shaoxun said, his voice sank. He originally thought that he would not care about his wife and children, and he would only think that he was a passer-by in this time and space.

But now, he feels a little distressed, the child is still so young, does he really want to live and die with himself?

Gu Fanghua saw the confusion in Yan Shaoxun's eyes. walked over and said softly: "Yan Shaoxun, you can turn back now." As long as you are willing to change, not to mention saving the lives of the family, I can still do it. ”

Yan Shaoxun was silent for a moment, and then looked at the sky again.

It's evening now, and the fiery clouds in the sky are all brilliant and charming.

Yan Shaoxun suddenly opened his mouth and said in a loud voice: "It's getting late today, so let's go back and rest first." You bring me the meal, let me think about it, and I'll talk about it tomorrow. ”

When Empress Dowager Zhong saw Yan Shaoxun, she began to hesitate, she was overjoyed, and she hurriedly agreed.

"Okay, no problem, you can think about it. The mourning family swore in public, as long as you are willing to let go of the pearl and tell the cause of the emperor's death, the mourning family will protect you from death. ”

Yan Rongling also saw Yan Shaoxun's hesitation, and quickly ordered to go down and make their own arrangements.

Gu Fanghua returned to the hall, heard Concubine Bai Xian's sobs, and thought of Emperor Hong Zheng inside, so she could only sigh. Who would have thought that the wise and martial emperor's uncle would die at the hands of his son and favorite concubine?

This is also the reason why he insisted on his unwillingness and chose to marry Yan Rongling.

Because as long as you enter the royal family, you will be trapped in this boxy imperial city for the rest of your life, just like your grandmother. In this imperial city, the father and son do not become father and son, and the husband and wife do not become husband and wife.

The moon is full for a while, and the deep meaning can't be countered, the long-lasting suspicion and desire for power.

How can the relationship between the monarch and the minister and the husband and wife last last for a long time?

Even if she is the queen's mother, the mother is the world. On weekdays, he sits in the majestic Kunning Palace, and keeps calling himself the palace. But in front of the emperor, he also has to call himself a concubine.

Concubines, concubines, first ministers, then concubines!

Gu Fanghua was unwilling and did not want to take this road.

Part of the reason is that he was injured too badly by Yan Shaoxun in the previous life, and the price he paid was too painful. She didn't dare to take this risk, who knew that after Yan Rongling, she would not be the next Yan Shaoxun.

Of course, part of the reason is that Gu Fanghua knows that she doesn't love Yan Rongling enough. My feelings for him are more of brother and sister feelings.

Because the love is not deep enough, it can't be a moth to the fire, and it can't be desperate.

Just like now, I fell in love with Xiao Yao but lost him. I still can't do it myself, and I am desperate to avenge him.

Gu Fanghua sat on the chair, half-squinted, and rested against the pillar.

Yan Shaoxun walked over slowly and stopped in front of her.

Gu Fanghua opened his eyes and looked at Yan Shaoxun, he was still as handsome as ever. Now in his early twenties, he is less childish and more noble.

With Yan Shaoxun in the previous life, it slowly coincided together.

"Mingzhu, did you know me in your last life?"

Yan Shaoxun suddenly wanted to chat with Gu Fanghua, wanting to know what he would be like in his previous life. I want to know how brilliant I was in my previous life.

"Understood? No, maybe I've never really gotten to know you. ”

Yan Shaoxun sat down beside Gu Fanghua and said in a low voice, "Then tell me, how did I deceive you?" ”

Gu Fanghua couldn't help laughing and looked at Yan Shaoxun. joked: "What, do you still want to sum up your experience and see why in this life, you didn't succeed in cheating?" ”

"If you weren't born again, I'm sure I could have married you."

Yan Shaoxun was convinced of this statement, after all, there is a lifetime of time to prove.

Gu Fanghua looked at Yan Shaoxun, she really wanted to know about the previous life, carefully turned out her memory, and recalled it well.
