Chapter 55: Self-deception

The Ninth Princess asked anxiously, "Queen Mother, how is my cousin, are you talking about it!" ”

The queen mother has been like this since she came back from visiting her father, not saying a word, even ignoring her, completely immersed in her own world.

The queen mother looks like this, but it really makes the ninth princess anxious, what's wrong with the queen mother? The ninth princess had a question, but her queen mother did not respond.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, the old slave has a saying, I don't know whether to say it or not." Father-in-law Zhou, who had been waiting on the sidelines, finally couldn't stand it anymore.

The Queen Mother obviously has something on her mind, but the Ninth Princess has been chattering here.

"Oh? When, let's hear it. The ninth princess glanced at Gonggong Zhou suspiciously.

The ninth princess was invited aside by Father-in-law Zhou, "The Queen Mother may have something on her mind, and the slave advises you not to ask." ”

"Is there anything about the queen mother that this princess can't know?" How could the Ninth Princess give up?

"It's not true, it's just that Niangniang needs to be quiet for the time being, and when Niangniang thinks about it, she will naturally tell the princess, why should Your Highness be in a hurry?" Zhou Gonggong explained euphemistically.

After Gonggong Zhou coaxed the princess, he looked at the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother at this time was extremely haggard, as if she had never been so tired, is this still the Standing Queen Mother? Gonggong Zhou couldn't help but wonder, how could his master say that he was also the final winner of the harem, what made her so embarrassed?

"Back to Niangniang, Her Royal Highness the princess's servants have been settled, Niangniang doesn't have to worry."

"Stand down, mourning is lacking." The Queen Mother said weakly.

Father-in-law Zhou bent down and retreated.

The Queen Mother rubbed her brain, her mind was full of the old emperor's fierce words, and she couldn't help but smile sadly, as the saying goes: A husband and wife are a hundred days a day. However, as the emperor's wife, she is not as good as a concubine! What an irony.

That day, she went to see him.

When the old emperor saw the Queen Mother, he couldn't help frowning, "What are you doing here, do you want to see my jokes?" ”

"Is this how Your Majesty views concubines?" The Queen Mother smiled desolately.

"Yan, I know very well what kind of person you are, what you have done over the years really disgusts me!" The old emperor said sharply.

"Ha~ The concubine didn't know that His Majesty hated the concubine so much...... "No matter how ruthless the Queen Mother is, it will be ruined in the hands of this man after all."

"If it weren't for you, poisonous woman! How could my beloved concubine die unexpectedly!! The old emperor at this time was undoubtedly furious.

"Concubine Shu, it's Concubine Shu's slut again! You are full of that slut, how can you ever care about the life or death of the concubine and the ninth princess? "As long as the concubine is mentioned, the queen mother is like losing her mind.

"I don't allow you to insult my concubine, what is there like my concubine? If it weren't for the threat of your Yan family, where would I get you as a poisonous woman! ”

"Chu Lutian!" It is the name of the old emperor, and no one has dared to call the emperor by his name for so many years.

That's right, even the old emperor himself almost forgot his name.

"Don't forget, you had to take me as a concubine in the first place. If you hadn't insisted on asking to marry, how could my Yanyue (the queen mother's name) Tang Tangyan's daughter marry you? At this time, the Queen Mother's eyes were fierce, but she was full of tears.

Yes, he has almost forgotten these old things, when the old emperor was still the crown prince, he was a famous gentleman in the capital, and few daughters of good people were willing to enter his East Palace.

But it just so happened that Yan was an accident, Yan was a famous talented and beautiful woman at that time, out of the ignorance and impulse of a young man, he asked his father for marriage. He vaguely remembered that his father was strongly opposed at that time, the reason was that the Yan family at that time was a famous family, and he wanted to ask for the position of a famous wife for the daughter of a famous family, and he had already thought that he had a princess.

However, nothing could stop the passion of his youth, he ran to Yan's house twice in three days, regardless of gossip, and finally Yan was moved by his sincerity and chose to marry as a side concubine.

However, the good times didn't last long, Xu was a man's heart, Xu had no freshness to Yan's, and Xu was impulsive...... The red face was broken before the old grace was broken, and this once sensational love was finally shattered.

The old emperor fell into contemplation, and when he opened his eyes, it was like a world away, and now, things have long been wrong, and the person in front of him is not his sweetheart.

In the face of the Queen Mother's aggressiveness, the old emperor was a little tired, it was indeed the Yan clan he provoked first, but what about men~ Why not have three wives and four concubines? What's more, he is still an emperor, isn't that emperor the three palaces and six courts?

"Shut up, I was just deceived by your appearance at that time, and I knew that I would never marry you!"

The Queen Mother looked at the old emperor in disbelief, raised her head and looked at the man standing in front of her, and finally smiled with relief and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "So, the concubine dares to ask His Majesty one last question, where is my nephew?" ”

The old emperor said impatiently, "If you want her to be so deceitful and shameless, and commit a chaotic minister and thief, I will naturally kill her." ”

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you are a rebellious minister and thief, for you to resist the invasion of Nanyi, the Yan family you spurn so much, has guarded the Chu family for you for nearly a hundred years, and even the Yan family has no heirs. Your insulting wife, the harem that the mourning family has taken care of for you for more than ten years, has accompanied you for most of your life! "The Queen Mother finally became hysterical and could not bear it anymore.

The old emperor was silent at this time, just because what she said was true.

Her thoughts returned to reality, and the Queen Mother settled down.

"Come on, invite the prime minister to the mourning family."

"Obey, the minion will do it." Gonggong Zhou exhaled, great, it seems that the Queen Mother has figured it out.

Soon, Ye Shanggong was passed into the palace.

"The Queen Mother, urgently recruit Weichen to come, but Yu has a whereabouts?" Ye Shanggong said bluntly.

Ye Shanggong is in a high position, and he still has the ability to observe words and feelings, and the Queen Mother seems to be a little wrong, but she can't say it.

The Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief, "That's right, you asked for the matter of the mourning family, and now you have eyebrows." ”

Ye Shanggong said with an urgent face, "Where is that Yu?" ”

"From now on, there will be no more words in this world." The Queen Mother said with a sad face.

"What?" Ye Shanggong stood up in disbelief and asked, "What does the Queen Mother mean by this?" ”

"The mourning family has said it clearly enough, Yu'er, there is no ...... anymore"

"How can a good person say that if there is no, it will be gone! Wechen didn't believe it. Ye Shanggong still didn't believe what the Queen Mother said, so he pretended to be calm.

"The mourning family didn't believe that Yu'er was gone like this, but ...... What the mourning family said is true, and it was said by the emperor himself to the mourning family. The Queen Mother was heartbroken.

"Did he kill Yu?" Ye Shanggong gritted his teeth and said.

The Queen Mother pretended to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes and nodded.

"Why did the Emperor Taishang kill Yu?" Ye Shanggong calmed down and asked slowly.

The Queen Mother paused and said, "It's just because Yu'er is a member of the Yan family." Hahaha...... How ridiculous! ”

Ye Shanggong left without saying a word, but even he didn't know what to do, how he was going to tell Yichen about Yu's death.

"Ye Shanggong ???" There are not many people who dare to call the prime minister by his name, but the ninth princess is counted as one.

After the last incident of marrying the right man in the wrong sedan chair, the ninth princess thought that she and Ye Shanggong were also friends.

"Nine Princesses~~" Ye Shanggong didn't dare to look directly at the clear eyes of the Ninth Princess, he was afraid, he was afraid that she would ask about Yu......

"It just so happened that Bengong met you, and Shicai Bengong went to see the queen mother, and the queen mother seems to be a little wrong......"

"Wechen remembered that there was still an important matter that had not yet been dealt with, and Wechen would come to see the Ninth Princess another day and say goodbye." Without waiting for the ninth princess to finish speaking, Ye Shanggong left in a hurry.

"Alas! Don't go...... "I don't know if my cousin has any news now?"

The ninth princess looked at Ye Shanggong's back as she left in a hurry, and sighed, since her cousin disappeared, she was not well.

My Yulang, where are you?

Ye Shanggong, who had just left the palace, was caught by Chu Yichen.

"What did the Queen Mother say? Did the old emperor tell Yun Zhi's whereabouts? You are talking......" Chu Yichen's words kept circling in his ears, and he had no choice to escape, but when he raised his eyes, he met his eyes full of expectations.

He couldn't tell him such a cruel truth, and he didn't want to disappoint him.

"I ...... Forget it, let's go home. ”

"Alas~" Turning around, Ye Shanggong had already gotten into his own carriage and left.

"Really, what's the hurry, what's the wrong thing to say here? It's so mysterious, it's really ......."

Prime Minister's Mansion, Study.

"Okay, what's the matter, let's say." Chu Yichen said impatiently.

"I entered the palace today and mentioned this matter to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother said: The Dog Emperor personally admitted that he ordered someone to kill Yu." Ye Shanggong took a breath and told the truth, and then finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Chu Yichen cautiously.

Chu Yichen couldn't believe his ears, he~ He heard it right, the Dog Emperor actually killed Yun Yun! The woman she loved in her life?

"Impossible! It's absolutely impossible! She won't have an accident, she will definitely not have an accident, her martial arts are so strong, she must be fine. Chu Yichen shook his head and comforted himself.

"This is what the Dog Emperor said himself, and I hope this is false, but Yu has already ......" Ye Shanggong looked at him like this, and he was more heartbroken than him.

"The Dog Emperor lied to me, no, I'm going to find her! I'm going to find her, to see people in life, and to see corpses in death. As long as her body is not found, this son will never believe that she is dead. Chu Yichen was already demonic, and his originally bright eyes became hollow, like a puppet.

"Enough! Sober up, stop kidding yourself, okay? During this time, they searched all over the capital, but there was no whereabouts of her. Unless, she is not in the capital, even if she is in the sky, it is impossible to have no news.

Chu Yichen's mind was full of words, she was either a gentleman in men's clothes, or a red wedding dress, about to marry him, her existence was so vivid, he didn't believe that she would die.

She's going to be fine.
