Chapter 31: Ruler Element

%&*"; i^

So many things have happened. Xiao Ziling finally died. She's still alive. It's just that. Live like the walking dead. Only heartbeat and breathing remain. Xiao Ziling was finally pushed into the abyss by Meng Hongyu himself. Fell into a hell from which there will never be returned. It's all there. Let Ouyang Ying feel distressed. Let the white as frost be happy. Let the Queen Mother be happy.

Zhan Zhan is self-defeating for love. Bite your tongue and commit suicide. As a good friend for many years. Ouyang Ying was secretly sad for a long time. However. After being sad. She breathed a sigh of relief. Original. She has decided to give up love and affection for the queen's throne. So. Fight the existence of this "watcher". It became a boulder blocking the way.

Now. The boulder that weighed on my heart was removed. The only person in the entire palace who knew her details, the person responsible for paving the way and building bridges for her and Meng Hongye, died. From now on. She no longer has to worry about her identity being revealed. Don't worry about having a pair of watching eyes behind your back. Her eyes suddenly brightened. The path to power is unimpeded. You said. How could the boulder in her heart not fall to the ground.

Xiao Ziling's complete fall from grace. Finally, I got my heart as white as frost. Although Xiao Ziling was not as Bai Rushuang had planned. was given death by Meng Hongye. But as it stands. She's on the edge of a cliff, at the bottom of hell. White as frost poses no threat. Therefore. White as snow rejoices all day long.

White as frost thought. Xiao Ziling's loss of momentum is his own gain. After this battle. She is one step closer to the queen's position, and she is even favored by Meng Hongyu as she once was. Xiao Ziling, who made Meng Hongyu love unforgettable, was also pulled down from the clouds by her. So. From now on. What else is so hard to pluck her as white as frost?

Next. It's up to her to see what she does. She didn't need to hold Meng Hongyu's heart firmly. She just wants to be ambitious. Conspiracy in hand. Step by step, power and status are in the bag. Take the queen's throne for yourself.

And what about the Queen Mother. He has always prided himself on putting the interests of the Meng family first. The Queen Mother who puts the interests of her children and grandchildren first. This time, he didn't intervene in the matter. It didn't stop Meng Hongyu's frantic behavior. She didn't tell her son what was strange and suspicious. The child in Ren Ziling's womb was buried by a bowl of saffron.

Her silent indulgence. The beautiful name is "respecting the emperor's decision, Xiao Ziling does not abide by women's morals". She also has selfishness in her heart. Because. Even the women of the Lin family have no hope of becoming queens again. She can't sit back and watch Xiao Ziling ascend to the throne of the queen. The phoenix is in the world.

She wants Ouyang Ying to be the queen. and then work together to support Xinmin to become the prince. In the future. If you have the protection of a new king; The Lin family will continue to rely on it in the future. In the future. In the struggle for power. The Lin family will not be cut down by the enemy. It won't collapse. and to be prosperous and rich for their children and grandchildren. Generations of brilliant Tengda.

She was afraid that Xiao Ziling would give birth to a prince. I'm afraid that Xiao Ziling will be favored again. Afraid that Xiao Ziling will become the queen. So. Everything she has worked hard to manage all her life. Including her son, her son's country. will be owned by Xiao Ziling. She abandoned her freedom and entered the palace. She lost her youth and was lonely in the deep palace. She defended her conscience and swung in the midst of a conspiracy...... It's all there. It's all for what. It's not about bringing glory to the family. Give your father and brother something to rely on. Give your son a piece of the country.

If Xiao Ziling becomes the queen. So. Her family is in jeopardy. Her father and brother will be in peril. Her son will become Xiao Ziling's man. Her son's country will fall into the hands of Xiao Ziling's son...... The moment I heard that Xiao Ziling drank saffron. The Queen Mother's heart is really happy. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief. A big sigh of relief.

Therefore. This time has passed. The entire palace seems to be living in joy and happiness, except for Xiao Ziling and Meng Hongyu. Of course. Someone's happiness is obvious, unabashed, and well known. The happiness of a man is like a school of fish in the deep sea. Lurking in the dark depths. But free and happy in a mess.

Let's take Ouyang Ying as an example. After the fun. She also remembered the friendship with Zhanzhan for many years. I have compassion for Xiao Ziling. Because she knows. Speaking of the exhibition war. How important Xiao Ziling is. In order for Xiao Ziling not to be misunderstood by Meng Hongyu. In order to save Xiao Ziling's life. Zhan Zhan didn't even want his life.

Just ask. This world. There are still a few men who value love and righteousness like Zhan Zhan. Loved a woman in obscurity and without regrets. Even the Meng Hongye, who has always been in love. His love for Su Zirong. There is also a bit of selfishness and utilitarianism. Sometimes. Ouyang Ying couldn't help but secretly think. Finally. Meng Hongye really fought for Su Zirong. Or use love as an excuse. Justify your own usurpation and ambition.

It's early afternoon. The winter snow is gradually melting under the warm sun. Water marks on the road. It seems that the tears of the earth. Ouyang Ying walked slowly in the direction of the Cold Moon Palace alone. She's used to being alone. Also always alone. Though now she is very favored. could have been surrounded by a horde of slaves. However. She still likes to be alone. Quietly guarding the secrets of your own world.

Arrived at Yukado. Knock softly on the door. Long. Someone came to open the door. Maybe it's been quiet for a long time. No one expected that someone would come at this time. Therefore. No one has come to open the door for a long time. Maybe it's that every time you open the door, there will be hardship and misfortune that will break in. Therefore. The people who live in this courtyard do not want to open the door easily.

See Ouyang Ying. Xiaoru was surprised. She didn't expect Ouyang Ying to come to this secluded place. To know. Now the concubines who are being favored. Everyone is afraid of being implicated. I'm afraid of contaminating Xiao Ziling's bad luck. Therefore. I can't avoid it.

Really. After being slightly stunned. Xiaoru began to panic about this lingering concubine. It can't be the emperor's order to come to the Xihuatang to deliver some bad news.

"Xiaoru. Who's coming......" Xiao Ziling's voice came from the west side of the courtyard. The voice did not fall. I saw her walk out softly and slowly. She was dressed in plain white clothes. Fat powder is not applied. There is no ornamentation in the hair. I didn't have a bun either. Just like a girl in the twenty-first century. Tied with a high ponytail.

See Ouyang Ying. Xiao Ziling was also surprised: she had no contact with Ouyang Ying. The only time Ouyang Ying came to see her. It was also to convey to her the dreams related to Su Zirong. Besides. There is no intersection again. Today. How could Ouyang Ying come to her Xihua Hall.

It's rare. See Xiao Ziling. Ouyang Ying actually showed a faint smile. A light smile revealed a message of kindness. It seems to show that she has no ill will. Xiao Ziling smiled back. There is a sense of heart-to-heart connection. It's the same feeling that Su Zirong gave her back then. It's just that. Ouyang Ying in front of him was a little more cold and defensive. It's also a little more mysterious to reject people thousands of miles away.

Let Ouyang Ying go to the study. Make a good pot of tea. The two of them sat down on the couch. Look at the rising moisture in the teacup. The sun is warm. Time is quiet. Both men were silent. Enjoy the comfort and coziness of afternoon tea.

"I didn't expect that. Miss Xiao's sunset flower hall. And such a good bergamot tea." Ouyang Ying took a sip of tea elegantly. Said leisurely. She called Xiao Ziling "Miss Xiao". There's a little bit of raw weight. Another little closeness; There is a little respect. Another little bit random. She didn't treat Xiao Ziling as Meng Hongyu's concubine. Don't call her sister or sister. This. Xiao Ziling likes it very much.

"I don't know why Miss Ouyang came here today." Xiao Ziling asked. She also politely calls her "Ouyang girl".

Hearing Xiao Ziling call her "Ouyang girl", Ouyang Ying reflected it. Original. She has always called Xiao Ziling Miss Xiao in front of Zhan Zhan. Didn't expect. Today, I habitually blurted out Xiao Ziling "Miss Xiao". This is a slightly charlatan-like name. It's really inappropriate.

However. Wrong, wrong. Anyway. She has something important to do today to come to see Xiao Ziling. In the future. Maybe she'll never come to Yukado again. Today. Just indulge yourself once. Be bold and have no worries for once. And it doesn't matter if it's really revealing its identity. Just call Xiao Ziling "Miss Xiao", and tell her generously about the entrusting of the war. This is her friend for many years. One last thing you can do for Zhan Zhan.

Take the letterhead out of your sleeve pocket. Gently place it on the table. Looking up into Xiao Ziling's puzzled eyes. Ouyang Ying said faintly: "This is Zhan Zhan...... I'll give it to Miss Xiao."

"Brother Zhan." Xiao Ziling was shocked. How could Zhan Zhan ask Ouyang Ying to hand over the letterhead. Thereupon. She couldn't help but blurt out Ouyang Ying. How could Brother Zhan ask you to transfer it to me......"

Transferring letterhead is such an important thing as human and physical evidence. Don't. This is another temptation by Meng Hongyu. It was Meng Hongyu who sent Ouyang Ying to test her sincerity. The first thought that popped into Xiao Ziling's mind was like this. Because. It is very likely that Meng Hongyu would do this kind of thing.

Pick up the letter suspiciously. Tear the seal cleanly. Take out the letter and read it. I saw a damp old piece of paper that read:

"The fog is lost. Tsukimitsudu. There is nowhere to be found. It can be a lonely hall closed in the cold spring. The cuckoo is singing in the twilight. Ekiyo plum blossoms. Fish Ruler. There is no repetition of this hatred. West Lake is fortunate to surround the lonely mountain. For whom to shed Xiaoxiang."

This is Qin Guan's "Tasha Xing". It's just that. Zhanzhan changed the sentence "Chenjiang Xingzi around Chenshan" to "West Lake Xingzi around Lonely Mountain". Although it was a little scribbled than usual. But it is indeed the handwriting of Zhan Zhan without a doubt.

This scribbled handwriting, damp old paper. Could it really be that Zhan Zhan was written in a damp and dark prison? Handwriting is hard to imitate. And the sentence specially modified in the letter, "West Lake is fortunate to surround the lonely mountain", also contains secrets that only she and Zhan Zhan know.

Her peach source. It's here.
