Hui Feng and Chang, Yan Hong sat alone in the pavilion looking at the pink lotus buds in the pool, silently contemplating.

He trotted forward along the path and said, "Son, someone is in the palace, the Queen Mother wants to summon you and let you enter the palace for the first time." ”

"It's finally here." Yan Hong chuckled, slowly got up, brushed the folds on the swing, and walked slowly outside the pavilion.

He followed behind him and said in a low voice: "Childe, you dedicated the secret talisman to the emperor, the queen mother must have a bad heart, and at this time, the emperor went to the palace to summon you, I don't know what your intentions are?" ”

Yan Hong said: "Naturally, I want to ask for sin. ”

Ran was stunned: "In that case, why aren't you in a hurry?" Maybe this trip to the palace is a life of nine deaths. ”

Although the emperor got the secret talisman, he may not be able to receive Yan Hong's affection, and he is more guarded against him. Where would he take the initiative to save him because of the Queen Mother's troubles. Therefore, when the Queen Mother summoned him to the palace this time, it is very likely that he will not return.

Yan Hong stopped, and in front of the layers of floating green lotus leaves, he looked particularly dusty. However, his smile revealed ill intentions, and said: "The emperor is disgusted with the queen mother's interference in politics and power, and he has endured it to the limit at this time, if King Du really finds any evidence to restrain the queen mother, the emperor may not help her." The best result of the Queen Mother is to live in seclusion in the palace, be an idle and wealthy woman, and spend the rest of her life. ”

Although he has been serving in front of Yan Hong, he is actually an eagle dog sent by his master to monitor him, and if Yan Hong wants to do something, he must explain it to him clearly, so that he can explain the reason to his master.

Knowing what he said, he realized something and said, "The Empress Dowager Song will not be willing to do this. ”

"You're right, Empress Dowager Song is naturally ambitious, and of course she won't be willing to be locked up in the palace to eat, drink and have fun. King Du has been in frequent movements recently, and she has already had a crisis in her heart. In order to be able to gain a long-term foothold with the DPRK, he did not hesitate to fight for power with his own son. What I have to do is to sow discord between their mother and son, so that the DPRK and China forces will be torn apart, and I will look for opportunities to take advantage of them. ”

Ran said: "It turns out that the prince has such an idea, I don't know, what way do you convince the queen mother?" ”

"King Du suddenly unloaded his body and went to Yandang Mountain, did he just lose the eldest princess of Hongyang? If the Queen Mother believes so simply, then she is not the Queen Mother. ”

"I heard that the eldest princess of Hongyang went out of the palace to practice back then, and she was related to the queen mother, and she was very unfriendly."

"The eldest princess of Hongyang and the prospective horse have a deep love for the sea, but they suddenly face harmony. Although the emperor favored Hongyang, he had no choice, because at that time, only Princess Hongyang was the same age in the royal family. The Queen Mother was ordered to persuade the princess, and the princess would rather die than obey. At this time, the colt died unexpectedly. What would the eldest princess of Hongyang think? ”

Ran guessed: "It must be suspected that the queen of heaven killed the horse." ”

Yan Hong nodded and said: "After the death of the concubine, everyone thought that she would no longer have any worries and would bear the responsibility of peace and relatives for the royal family, but who knows, she escaped into the empty door and no longer paid attention to anything in the royal family. In the end, the Queen Mother had no choice but to send her thirteen-year-old Princess Qinghe to kiss. Since then, although no one has mentioned it, everyone knows about it. The eldest princess of Hongyang and the queen mother are almost incompatible. ”

"So, is the prince going to take advantage of the matter of the eldest princess of Hongyang to provoke the queen mother to do it to the prince now?"

Yan Hong said with a smile: "The Queen Mother and the Emperor must have taken the opportunity to rob and kill the King of Du on the road, but the King of Du has been in business for many years, where can it be so easy to die?" At that time, it is necessary to use both conspiracies and conspiracies to completely defeat him. ”

"However, since the prince gave the secret talisman to the emperor first, why didn't he push the boat down the river and help the queen mother instead?"

"You know, our purpose is not to make Da'an stronger. It's about making it vulnerable. The queen mother, the emperor, and the king of Du, the power of these three people is almost the same. If the king wins, Daan will become stronger. If the emperor wins, Da'an will not become stronger, and it will not become weaker in a short time. But if the Queen Mother wins, what will happen to Da'an? The imperial power will fall into the hands of foreign relatives, everyone in the DPRK and China will be in danger, and all kinds of crises will appear one after another......"

Hearing this, he fully understood, and said with a smile: "Childe is very scheming. ”

Yan Hong thought for a while and said, "You go to the warehouse and lift the screen out." ”

Surprised: "The heirloom of Yanfu? Childe wants to dedicate him to the Queen Mother? ”

"If you want to impress a woman, you must first impress her eyes and ears. Although the Queen Mother is not an ordinary woman, giving her something she likes will inevitably make her willing to listen to me say a few more good words. ”

He laughed and said, "Yes, the little one will prepare." ”

The sun is in full bloom, and the entire Da'an Palace is paved with a fine and dense gold.

The Shoukun Palace where the Empress Dowager Song lived, although it was not gold for the railing and jade for the wall, but everywhere reflected the finely carved gold. Whether it is the curtains in the hall, or the cups, plates and bowls commonly used on weekdays, they are all decorated with small gold and jade gems. Even the phoenix pattern on the eaves pillar in front of the hall is all filled with gold wires, and the noon sun shines on it, dazzling.

Yan Hong followed behind the female official Jinyu and respectfully walked into the Huihe Palace. All the palace maids standing around them stood on one side with bated breath, silently like statues.

The Queen Mother seemed to have just gotten up from a nap, her expression was still a little lazy and misty, and she took the hand of the maid and drank a soup with a clear color. When she saw Yan Hong coming in, she glanced at him casually and then withdrew her gaze. It wasn't until she was halfway through the soup that she slowly got up to rinse her mouth and clean her hands, skimmed the big wooden box behind Yan Hong, and asked, "Inside is the heirloom of your Yan family, the Seven Treasures Glazed Jade Face Screen?" ”

Yan Hong's expression was respectful, but he did not lose his original calmness, and said: "Back to the Queen Mother's words, it is exactly." ”

The Queen Mother motioned for him to come forward, and Yan Hong turned around and motioned to a few chamberlains. The waiter opened the wooden box and was the first to see the screen, and couldn't help but gasp. Rao is that they have seen well in the palace, and they are also dazzled by the things in front of them!

Hearing this, Empress Dowager Song couldn't help but get up and take two steps forward, and couldn't help but be shocked when she saw the screen being carefully lifted out and standing in front of her.

The light and transparent seven-color glaze has been carefully carved into four screens, and the transparent color is rare in the world, but there are skilled craftsmen who carved it into a sea of clouds, mountains and fog, and Zhu Luan is covered. Between the pavilions and treasures, immortals come and go, calling for wind and rain. It is actually the use of the seven colors on the glaze to the fullest, and it is extremely vivid.

The Queen Mother couldn't help but stretch out her hand to touch it, and narrowed her eyes slightly because she was too dazzling in the light. She opened her lips softly and said, "This is the Seven Treasures glazed jade screen that your Yan family has passed down from generation to generation?" It's a rare treasure. ”

Yan Hong bowed down and replied softly: "It's good if the Queen Mother likes it." ”

When the Empress Dowager Song heard this, she lifted her eyelids to look at him, turned around and walked back to the couch to sit down again, and waved away the palace people standing in the palace.

She said in a low voice: "It seems that the Yan Mansion is already in your hands, and even such a thing can be taken out and dedicated to the mourning family." You are indeed a very smart person. However, any treasure in the world is also a dead thing, how can it compare to the power that can be controlled in the hand? ”

Yan Hong was not nervous in the face of the Queen Mother's questioning, but said: "Why should the Queen Mother mind, if that secret talisman is not in the hands of the Cui family, it is just a piece of beautiful jade that can be enjoyed." Its value is not as good as the first line of patterns on this screen. ”

"Hmph...... You dare to tease the mourners?! The corners of the Queen Mother's lips were raised, but the cold light in her eyes was completely sharp, she sneered, and looked down at her contemptuously, just like the person in front of her, just an insignificant insect.

"Yan Hong doesn't dare." He lowered his eyes, his voice was sincere, and said: "The minister is just an ant in front of the queen mother, if you want the minister to die, but with a slight movement of your fingers, the minister will be crushed and ashes." How dare you tease you? What the minister said, there is a reason for the incident, and I hope that the Queen Mother can give Weichen a chance to listen to the minister's details. ”

Empress Dowager Song looked at Yan Hong's face in front of her, Rao is her age comparable to his mother, and she was still amazed by this appearance. She asked him to come, naturally, not to take his life absolutely, but to see if he could be used. She showed an interested look and slowly spoke: "Since you want to show loyalty to the mourning family so much, the mourning family will give you a chance." ”

Yan Hong raised his head slightly, looked at the Queen Mother, and his face was sincere and sincere: "Regarding the matter of the secret talisman, the Queen Mother might as well think so." Even if the emperor gets the secret talisman, it is just in exchange for some peace of mind, it is a dead thing after all, and it will not be of great use for a while, and it will not affect the queen mother in the slightest. If the minister dedicated the secret talisman to the Queen Mother at that time, then the emperor would turn around and ask for the minister's life, so how could the minister have the opportunity to serve the Queen Mother? ”

Empress Dowager Song slowly moved her elbows, relaxed her movements, and said, "What do you mean, do you want to surrender to the mourning family?" Hmph, do you say that, the mourning family wants to believe you? How can you guarantee that you will be more useful than that talisman?! ”

Yan Hong smiled slightly and said: "It is rare for the emperor to be reused by the emperor in this life, since this is the case, the minister is willing to put his life in the hands of the Queen Mother, and rely on the Queen Mother to promote and value it." ”

Empress Dowager Song looked at him silently. Yan Hong was not in a hurry, and she was still looking at her for a long time.

After a while, the Empress Dowager Song slowly stood up, walked to the window, looked at the bright and clear world outside, and said, "Then, there must be something in your hand that can impress the mourning family, right?" ”

Yan Hong thought to himself, it is not for nothing that the Empress Dowager Song can become the queen, or even the queen mother. Such a woman is all incisive and calculating! He said: "Weichen does have something to tell the Queen Mother now." ”
