Sit in the bedroom. Look at the pile of congratulatory gifts on the table. Ouyang Ying hesitated: It seems. What the Queen Mother said just now is true. The Queen Mother wasn't tempting her. It wasn't intended to scare her, either. Rather, I really want her to get to the back of the seat. Maybe. The emperor promoted her as a concubine. It was also the Queen Mother's idea.

Empress...... Empress...... What a tempting title to be, facing the queen's throne. How many people's hearts are yearning for it. How many people racked their brains and counted the tricks. How many people regard death as their fate to go to Huangquan. And how many people stepped on the corpses of their predecessors without changing their faces. Succession after succession.

So. Can she resist such a big temptation? Ouyang Ying couldn't help but ask himself.

Oh, yes. Before that. She never imagined that she too would one day become a queen. She's not like any other woman. I came to the palace for the king's grace, for the glory and wealth, and for the queen to be the queen. She came into the palace. Just for the man who haunted her. Therefore. She just wants to be his meticulous work silently in the palace. Contribute to his "work" and do your best. She never wanted to be a queen.

Now. The Queen Mother suddenly said that she wanted to make her queen. So. What should she do? It is to give up a passion for Meng Hongye. Then he switched to Meng Hongyu's arms. To be the queen of one person and ten thousand people. Or stick to that lonely and hopeless love. Desperately dedicated his youth to Meng Hongye. and even life. This moment. Ouyang Ying hesitated.

She knows." Once you enter the Hou Gate, it is as deep as the sea. From then on, Xiao Lang is a passerby". She will never be able to get out of this deep palace again. Meng Hongye completed his "great cause" and seized the throne. Ascend to the throne. However. That's ten million times more difficult than Shu Dao. Meng Hongye's dream is out of reach. Her love is not out of reach. Now. What should she do? Tearful eyes ask every day silently.

Faced with such a difficult choice. Ouyang Ying had insomnia.

When you go to sleep. She always dreams of Meng Hongye's handsome figure and warm smile. Dreaming of the sound of his flute. lingering grievances; Awake. She lay quietly beside Meng Hongyu. Looking at his tranquil sleeping face. I can't help but feel sad in my heart.

She knows. Meng Hongyu is a good emperor who loves the people. Since his accession to the throne. Political clarity. The people live and work in peace and contentment. Although there is no way to leave the world behind. But at least there are no vicious cases such as rampant burning, killing, and looting; He is also a good man with affection and righteousness. He never forgot Su Zirong. I have a deep love for Xiao Ziling. It's just that. He is the Son of Heaven. There is always the helplessness of being overwhelmed by the cold in high places. For the sake of the country, the society and the power and wealth. He had to give up, for example, love. For example, women.

The days flew by in Ouyang Ying's hesitation. Three days later it was time for her canonization. The canonization ceremony was held in the Cining Palace. Presided over by the Queen Mother. And the Queen Mother personally crowned Ouyang Ying. In front of the court. These ceremonies are all presided over by the Empress. It's just that Meng Hongyu's back seat is vacant. Therefore. The Queen Mother will preside over these things.

Early that morning. After Ouyang Ying finished washing, he came to Cining Palace early to wait. Half a day. Other concubines also arrived one after another.

As soon as I saw Ouyang Ying. White as frost, he stepped forward diligently. There is a smile between the eyebrows. The smile was bright. But people can't feel affection: "Congratulations to the concubine. It's a good day."

Ouyang Ying just smiled politely. She will be her ice and snow beauty as before. White as frost saw her so cold. I was secretly unhappy in my heart. At this time. It just so happened that Lin Yueyao also came. Lin Yueyao looked in a trance. The pace of walking is also vain. Haggard face. It's like a flower after being bullied by frost and snow. Faltering.

"Concubine Yao doesn't seem to be in good spirits. But I didn't sleep all night." White as frost is unhappy in my heart. I saw that Lin Yueyao was coming. and turned the displeasure of his heart into words. Lin Yueyao is sarcastic." And no wonder. The thought of today is a good day. I must have been so excited that I couldn't sleep."

How could Lin Yueyao not be able to hear the sarcasm and sarcasm in Bai Rushuang's words. It's just that. At this point, she was really overwhelmed. I don't want to have a verbal argument with her. Recently. She always has insomnia and dreams. Loss of appetite. Occasionally, I feel nauseous and want to throw up. The doctor has come to see it. I don't see why. It's just that it's because it's too hard to take care of the little prince day and night. Rest will be fine. She rested, but rested. But it still doesn't get better.

Lin Yueyao just glanced at her fiercely. I didn't have the strength to deal with her. White as frost, I felt even more bored in my heart. He sat down quietly in his seat. Turned his head to look at Lin Yueyao. I saw that her face was pale. Leaning weakly on the chair and closing his eyes to recuperate. Standing behind Lin Yueyao, Mu Xue nodded slightly at Bai Rushuang. A very shallow smile flashed in his eyes.

White as frost with a smile on the corner of his mouth. There was a hint of approval in his eyes. I already knew Lin Yueyao at this time. The poison of cinnabar has already begun. She's having symptoms today. It is the initial manifestation of poisoning. Just let her eat cinnabar for another half a month. She will be destined to go to Yellow Springs. Thinking that Lin Yueyao was about to die. White as frost, the slightest hint of displeasure was swept away. My face is much better.

A while. Aunt Shu Wen helped the Queen Mother to Guangshou Hall. As soon as I saw the Queen Mother come in. The concubines present all quickly stood up and stood respectfully with their hands bowed. Only Lin Yueyao still leaned weakly on the chair. And don't get up. Original. Last night she tossed and turned again and couldn't sleep. So I didn't sleep all night. I'm drowsy now.

The Queen Mother guessed in her heart that she was angry with Ouyang Yingjin and made her a concubine. At this time, he is playing with his temper and throwing a tantrum. Therefore, there is no more harsh criticism. See this situation. Mu Xue hurriedly leaned over and whispered to her twice. The moment she was suddenly woken up, she forgot that she was in Cining Palace. I think it's in the Soul Theater. Therefore, he blurted out and complained to Mu Xue: "What is the noise. I finally fell asleep."

The words just came out. Lin Yueyao realized her gaffe at this time. Therefore, I had to sit upright in the strange eyes of the concubines. Bai Rushuang saw her so arrogant and unreasonable. I couldn't help but snicker in my heart. The Queen Mother saw her so out of shape. Coughed slightly. Zhengsheng said: "Xuan Internal Affairs Office and the celebrant are coming in."

The eunuchs of the Internal Affairs Office cautiously came in with phoenix hairpins and brocade clothes. I saw that the phoenix hairpin was finely worked. At a glance, you can see that the hairpin is extremely valuable and valuable. Especially the emerald that dots the hairpin. It wasn't long ago that the Western Regions paid tribute. It is said that there is only one in the world.

The concubines present were all itchy to watch. I'm really jealous of that Ouyang Ying. Even Lin Yueyao, who was originally blind. At this time, he also opened his eyes wide and looked at the phoenix hairpin steadily. I want to keep it for myself. Pity. That's not an ordinary phoenix hairpin. It's an honor. The glory of this imperial gift belongs to Ouyang Ying. No one can replace it.

"Lingering. Come forward and take a salute." The Queen Mother said kindly. Ouyang Ying stepped forward lightly. Kneel in front of the Queen Mother. Bow your head and bow down. Saw. The Queen Mother carefully picked up the phoenix hairpin. Gently put on Ouyang Ying's jet-black bun. Then he said, "Lift your head."

Ouyang Ying raised his head cautiously. The Queen Mother looked at her carefully. Then he nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's really good. This phoenix hairpin. Only you can afford to wear it."

What the. This phoenix hairpin can only be worn by Ouyang Ying. Lin Yueyao heard the Queen Mother say this. I am angry and hateful. I felt a nameless anger rush to my head. Thereupon. She picked up the teacup she had in hand and drank it. I want to extinguish the anger in my heart. However, his hands trembled slightly. An accident. The teacup in his hand fell to the ground with a "crackle". Fall to pieces. Tea and broken porcelain splashes. also splashed the brocade dress in the hands of the Queen Mother.

Then. The Queen Mother is holding a brocade dress and wants to give it to Ouyang Ying. But he was suddenly startled by a crisp sound. Haven't come back to your senses yet. I saw that the brocade clothes in my hand were splashed with tea. Ouyang Ying knelt closer to Lin Yueyao. I was also taken aback. When you turn your head to look. I saw that the skirt behind me was also splashed with tea.

The concubines present all looked at Lin Yueyao fixedly. thought she was deliberately trying to make Ouyang Ying ugly. So I snickered in my heart. Applaud Lin Yueyao. Lin Yueyao was frightened. In fact. She was really careless. Although my heart is full of jealousy. Jealous of Ouyang Ying. But she's not so ignorant. will embarrass the Queen Mother on such an important occasion.

Mu Xue was so frightened that she hurriedly stepped forward. Kneeling behind Ouyang Ying. couldn't help but plead for Lin Yueyao: "The Queen Mother is angry. The concubine is angry. Concubine Yao Niangniang is not feeling well these days. Poor spirits. Fang Cai would break the teacup by mistake in a trance...... I hope the Queen Mother will forgive her sins."

The Queen Mother saw Lin Yueyao's little face pale. Looking at her nervously with wide eyes. There was a hint of panic in his eyes. It doesn't matter if she's intentional or not. In this case. The Queen Mother is certainly not fit to be angry. Therefore. The corners of her mouth lifted slightly. Hand the brocade clothes in his hand to Ouyang Ying. Ouyang Ying took it respectfully.

The Queen Mother turned around and looked at Lin Yueyao. Said softly: "Since Concubine Yao is unwell. Then let's go back and rest." Listen to the Queen Mother's unwavering tone. Lin Yueyao didn't know if she really cared about her. Still giving her an eviction order. Therefore, he looked at the Queen Mother in a daze. Overwhelmed.

Mu Xue couldn't help but kowtow to the Queen Mother and thanked: "The slave thanked the Queen Mother on behalf of the Queen Mother. Thank you, Niangniang." Mu Xue kowtowed and thanked her. He quickly stood up. helped Lin Yueyao out.

Lin Yueyao was stunned and let Muxue help out of the Guangshou Hall. Until when I walked out of the gate of Cining Palace. Lin Yueyao reacted. muttered to Mu Xue: "Fang Cai. What the hell does aunt mean?"

Mu Xue was confused when she heard it. I couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "What do you mean. What the hell does that mean?"

Lin Yueyao was also puzzled. What exactly does it mean in the end. The Queen Mother is her aunt. Or Ouyang Ying's aunt. Since when. Her aunt was gradually cold to her. But he kissed Ouyang Ying like this.
