ZI Youge "Meet the Queen"

A woman in a light green palace dress knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the queen obediently

Ling Xiao didn't come yet, but Shui Ying arrived first

She was pregnant, although she was a month younger than Yan Qingge, but her stomach for more than six months was already like a pillow in it

The queen couldn't say that she liked Shui Ying or hated it, and said lightly: "Give the concubine a seat on the water side"

Shui Ying thanked the queen and sat next to her obediently

"The emperor must not be worried that the Shui family is divided, and you are specially called to supervise the mourning family," the queen said lightly

"Her Royal Highness Niang Feibo called the concubine just because His Royal Highness is merciful and cares about the concubine's surname Shui," Shui Ying lowered her head and said softly, revealing softness and sorrow in her voice

It's hard for the queen to say anything at this time

Shui Ying is the little sister of Shui Zhi and Shui Mu, although the family is separated after marriage, on the surface, it doesn't seem to be her business, but when it comes to it, it is sad enough to see the once harmonious family fall apart and go back to her parents' house without knowing who to go to

Shui Ying, Shui Zhi, and Shui Mu hadn't seen her for a long time, she looked at this and that, the water in her eyes flowed, she looked like she wanted to cry but didn't dare to cry, and finally her eyes that could speak fell on Yan Qingge, smiled at her, and then lowered her head and said nothing

After waiting for a while, Ling Xiao arrived late, and there was Concubine Shui who arrived with her

Concubine Shui's body can clearly be seen to be old, walking and staggering, and the roots of her hair are almost completely white

Yan Qingge peeked at the queen and then at Concubine Shui, and suddenly felt that there must be some withering wind blowing through the women in the palace to make them all age quickly

Calling so many people to wait for herself, the queen originally planned to reprimand Ling Xiao, but at the moment she saw Concubine Shui, she couldn't make any kind of fire

Concubine Shui's old age, Long Zhong was helped to sit down without waiting for the queen's seat, she held the delicate cane with both hands, and cast a glance at the queen from her sunken eye sockets: "I am also the Shui family, and I also ask the mother to ask the holy judge for the matter of dividing the family."

Shui Mu's face showed a look of ecstasy

It seems that Concubine Shui means that she does not agree with the separation of the Shui family

Shui Zhi shook his head slightly and sighed

He had already been quite familiar with the fact that Concubine Shui would jump out to support the Shui family, but he didn't expect that Concubine Shui would be so high-profile from the beginning, didn't she think that now is not the time for Concubine Shui to gain power when the emperor is alive, Concubine Shui will only make the queen's attitude tougher

The queen's eyes were full of motherhood, solemnity and softness in the world, and there was no impatience at all

She showed a standard queen-like smile to Concubine Shui, and she owed a debt: "What the concubine said is that I am young, and I am not as thoughtful as you, I should have come to invite you this time."

The smug look on Shui Mu's lips became even heavier

"The separation of the Shui family is your own family matter, but it is related to family property, and the title is not ordinary people, but people can't be negligent."

After the queen finished speaking, she looked at Concubine Shui: "What's more, the old man in your family is still there, although he is in the palace, but he will naturally be sad when he sees the family falling apart for a lifetime, and this matter is not in line with filial piety."

Ling Xiao had been standing beside Concubine Shui, quietly not saying a word, as if she had stayed out of the matter from beginning to end

Yan Qingge saw that Ling Xiao was a little depressed, and he didn't know how she was doing in the palace these days, and she was very anxious

Concubine Shui's personality is not very close, even Shui Ying, who was also a descendant of the Shui family back then, has never gotten Concubine Shui's blue eyes

It was Yan Qingge himself who also took the opportunity of Concubine Shui's feelings for the emperor and revealed his intention to cooperate, so that he could talk to Concubine Shui, Ling Xiao's character would not have a good relationship with Concubine Shui

It seemed that he felt Yan Qingge's gaze, Ling Xiao raised his head slightly, and Yan Qingge's gaze was opposite to Yan Qingge, and then drifted away, floating on Shui Mu's body, and stopped for a moment before turning away

Just in that moment's eyes, Yan Qingge saw a lot of things: dazed, painful and reluctant, questioning grievances, and even hatred

Yan Qingge couldn't help but feel distressed

It seems that Ling Xiao still has deep feelings for Shui Mu, otherwise he would not have such eyes

Yan Qingge couldn't help but think of that ancient poem: Shi Zhidan can be taken off even more; The female Dan is indispensable

Ling Xiao didn't understand this truth or not

The queen was on the high seat, talking about the affairs of the Shui family with dissatisfaction, and watching the changes in the Shui family's expressions with satisfaction

She smiled and said: "It's not uncommon for a family like yours to be separated, more than ten years ago, Ning Wangfu was divided, and now the Xinguo Mansion is the home of Duke Wanghou, and your family is not rich in heirs, and it is a pity to follow the example of others."

"Yu Niangniang Shui Mu is not willing to split up" Shui Mu immediately knelt down after hearing the queen's words: "This matter is the idea that suddenly came out of my brother when he was depressed at home and didn't know who he was bewitching."

"The meaning of the prince is not to divide the family"

"My Shui family is now a family of old and young, sick and disabled, with my wife and her children in the womb, and my younger brother who is unable to take care of himself, and I am the only pillar of the family, if the family is divided, no one cares about them, how can Shui Mu's conscience be at ease," Shui Mu said sonorously, and turned his face to look at Shui Zhi: "Brother, you will never be a drag on me"

"Niangniang, but listening to Shui Zhi's words, Shui Zhi wants to split up not because I am afraid that I will be a drag on my brother, but because I dislike my brother as a drag on me," Shui Zhi said surprisingly calmly

"Oh, tell me more about how your brother has dragged you down," the queen came and propped herself up slightly in her chair

Shui Mu's face became very ugly, staring at Shui Zhi and pretending to be a good big brother, his expression was really distorted

Shui Zhi took a deep look at Shui Mu and took out a scroll from the small box next to the wheelchair he was sitting on

"Please also ask the mother to take a look"

Shui Mu's face changed drastically, looking at the portrait as if he were looking at a poisonous snake

Shui Zhi and Shui Mu's eyes met in the air, as if they could bring out sparks, Yan Qingge, an outsider, felt a tingling of his scalp when he looked at it

"What kind of painting is this?" asked the queen, seeing the difference, and before the painting could be presented

Shui Mu pouted, knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Niangniang, this is a painting that my younger brother took from my study, and it is a painting of the criminal minister Wei Qiao."

Yan Qingge didn't expect that the painting turned out to be Wei Qiao, and couldn't help but be surprised in his heart

She couldn't help but think that when she was in Qingzhou, she had found a few paintings of Wei Qiao, and finally found that the satin in the middle layer of the painting was greasy, and after putting it together, it was a detailed map of the palace and the capital

There is also a question of whether this painting is difficult or not, otherwise why Shui Mu's face has become so ugly

Just when Yan Qingge was thinking wildly, the queen had already unfolded the picture scroll, she looked at it and put it down casually: "This spring outing picture is not bad, if the palace is not mistaken, the people on it should have the prince and Wei Qiao when they were young."

Shui Mu's head was covered with beads of sweat the size of beans, and he clenched his cheeks and said: "It's the queen's mother, although Wei Qiao is a traitor who everyone in the world can be punished, but Shui Mu and Wei Qiao were intersected at that time, he was not like this now, I never lost this painting, I didn't expect to be turned out by my brother, and brought to the palace to laugh at Niangniang."

"I see that this painting is good, so I will stay here in this palace, this palace is a happy character Danqing," the queen said, and she didn't know if it was true or not, so she casually handed the painting to the palace maid beside her

Seeing that the queen didn't notice anything abnormal for the time being, Shui Mu kowtowed a few more times, gritted his teeth and said: "The queen's mother, Shui Mu, now understands why my younger brother has to break up with me, it turns out that my younger brother is afraid that I have a bad heart to bring him tired, but Shui Mu's loyalty to Da Zhou can be seen from the sun and the moon, and his father's matter is proof."

Shui Mu's words silenced the queen for a moment

With the experience of his father, Shui Mu has already borne the shadow of a traitor's son

Although Shui Mu offered a rotten human head, saying that he was the head of his rebellious father that he had cut off with his own hands, the more he did this, the more the court was worried, and how could a person who could even kill his own father be loyal to the court

The queen would not say these words, and she did not even allow Shui Mu to use her father as a weight

"This palace knows that the conflict between your family is here."

"Yes" Shui Zhifeng smiled lightly: "No matter what my brother is, but Xiaomin is very important to survive from the fight, Xiaomin is unwilling to stay in the Shui family"

Seeing that Shui Mu seemed to be about to speak, he added: "I haven't thought deeply about this matter, my brother has a friend who is Le Xuan, the son of the Le family, and I have also asked this Le Gongzi about this matter, but Le Gongzi did not persuade me to stay in the Shui family."

Shui Mu's expression changed again

At this time, everyone was staring at Shui Mu and Shui Zhi, but no one noticed the unknown color flashing in Yan Qingge's eyes in the corner

At this time, everyone else felt inexplicable in Shui Zhi, but Yan Qingge could sit still, and there must be something greasy in that painting of Shui Zhi

On the island on the Jade Lake, Yan Qingge's self-defense paintings revealed that only five people knew about the map, including Zhou Jiaotou, herself, Ruyi, Cao Yu, and Le Xuan

These five people are very strict in their mouths, and they will never say anything outside, presumably it must be Le Xuan who told Shui Zhi about it, and there is no doubt that he must have discovered that the painting was wrong

Yan Qingge quietly watched Shui Mu's expression become like a lightning strike, and suddenly felt that Ling Xiao and Shui Mu's marriage must come to an end

Even if Ling Xiao still had any illusions about Shui Mu, she had to break them up

Staying in the water family is not only sad, but also fatal

Shui Zhi just held Shui Mu's life, so that he couldn't say a word for a long time

Yan Qingge looked at the two brothers quietly on the side, and felt ridiculous for a while

Only Shui Zhi was left in the hall and talked eloquently: "As long as the family can be separated, the people are willing to obey all the requirements of the queen's mother."
