Chapter 448: Self-Determination

"Someone! Where have all the people died? ”

Wen Xinlan smashed everything that could be smashed in the dormitory, and everything that could be smashed.

I tossed and was hungry, but I couldn't even drink warm water.

"Mourning family or queen mother, do you want to rebel?"

The door creaked open.

Wen Xinlan walked quickly around the screen and stepped on the debris all over the ground and walked out. "Gan Peilin, I knew it was you!"

"It's not hard to guess." Gan Peilin looked at her with heavy eyes, and walked over cautiously step by step. I'm afraid that if I don't pay attention, I will trample on her last dignity as the queen mother.

"Aren't you afraid, if you come in, you can't get out?" Wen Xinlan expected her to come back, and she was already prepared.

A black shadow jumped down from the beam and quickly stood in front of Gan Peilin.

"Kill her for the mourners." Wen Xinlan's voice carried a cold majesty.

Who knew that the black shadow turned around and pulled off the golden hairpin on the side of the queen mother's sideburns.

"What are you doing?" Wen Xinlan's bun fell apart in an instant, and her black hair hung down messily.

The black shadow took off the black cloth covering his face, frowned, and said, "The Queen Mother didn't remember me so soon?" ”

"It's you!" Wen Xinlan suddenly became angry: "It was you who calculated the mourning family!" ”

"Under Huo Qing." The man's voice was deep: "It's Jiang Xiang's person." ”

"Huo Qing?" Wen Xinlan felt that this name was a little familiar, but she couldn't think of it for a while: "You are from Jiang Yu...... Huo Qing ......"

A cold light flashed in her mind, and Wen Xinlan was immediately shocked: "You are the leader of the famous Qingyi faction on the rivers and lakes?" Are you from Jiang Yu? Isn't the Tsing Shirt faction under the control of Jiang Yu? ”

"Yes." Huo Qing nodded gently: "Under the orders of the master, we are here." And the meaning of our existence is to clear the hidden dangers on the rivers and lakes for our masters. Now, the Queen Mother, except for those who are in the palace and pretend to be Yu Linwei, the only ones left are hidden in the rivers and lakes, and they have all been wiped out by us without knowing it. Queen Mother, you have no way out. ”

Wen Xinlan dodged and sat on the ground. The palm of his hand was pierced by a broken piece of porcelain, and blood gushed out.

Gan Peilin also squatted down at this time, holding Wen Xinlan's hand with his own silk and bandaging her. "When the first emperor was here, he always wanted to attack Ganfu. Several times, the Queen Mother, you tried to save me, and I have been able to save it to this day. Although I am almost lost in your hands, and the grievances are clear, but with my mother's weight, I will not kill them all. ”

Wen Xinlan couldn't help but sneer when she heard her say this: "Are you a poor mourner?" ”

"In fact, no matter who becomes the emperor, you are the only queen mother." Gan Peilin said calmly: "As long as you can let go of your power and live in the palace with peace of mind, the glory and wealth still belong to you, why bother?" ”

"Whew!" Wen Xinlan withdrew her hand and didn't appreciate it: "You let Huo Qing confuse me, use your hands and feet in spices, and force me to lose face in front of hundreds of officials, aren't you for power, not for glory and wealth?" You want your husband to regain the country and make him a high Son of Heaven, isn't it selfish? How noble can you be more than me? ”

"I am indeed for power, for glory and wealth, and for my husband to regain this country. I never felt noble. Gan Peilin looked at her calmly, and said word by word extremely calmly: "But, after all, I didn't step on other people's bones to climb up, it was always you who did it, and I fought back." ”

"Nonsense." Wen Xinlan didn't like to listen to her clever words: "You didn't calculate, how could I end up like today." ”

"Queen Mother, if it weren't for your greed for men and sex, how could I use this spice to confuse you? You have always been suspicious, the spices prepared by Huo Qing, you asked Bao Que to test them over and over again, but the medicinal powder that really confused you and made you unconscious was smeared on Huo Qing's body. If you keep yourself clean and keep your distance from him, how can you possibly be tricked? You blame me for calculating you, and you don't want to think about what you've done? ”

"What I'm willing to do has nothing to do with you." Wen Xinlan said disdainfully: "But now that the emperor is in your hands, you are not going to kill him." You and I are no different after all. ”

"You're wrong, I won't." Gan Peilin said with deep eyes: "I handed over that child to Chen Rui and sent him to a safe place." The palace coup and d'Γ©tat had nothing to do with him. He was just chosen by you by chance, and he had to walk into this whirlpool. ”

"You ......" Gan Peilin didn't know how to describe her, but just smiled: "Sooner or later, you will pay the price for your stupid kindness." ”

"Do you want to wait and see that day?" Gan Peilin asked.

"Don't." Wen Xinlan took a deep breath and raised her chin slightly: "The mourning family disdains to look at it." ”

"Actually, you already knew that my husband was the brother of the first emperor, why did you delay until the first emperor was gone, and then you thought about doing it?" Gan Peilin asked clearly.

"Is it still useful to talk about this now?" Wen Xinlan has nothing more to say.

Gan Peilin picked up the silk again and wanted to bandage her.

Wen Xinlan pushed her hand away in disgust: "For your mother's sake, leave the last bit of dignity for the mourning family." ”

Gan Peilin knew what she meant by this, and frowned and stood up.

Sometimes, it's not terrible to die, it's terrible to be alive. The kind of life that has no hope, day after day, year after year, is like being under the abyss, never touching the warmth.

After Gan Peilin stepped out of the threshold, he saw Wu Wei standing under the corridor.

She didn't make a sound, just walked out slowly with a heavy brow. Wu Wei strode up the corridor.

"The Queen Mother, she ......"

Gan Peilin shook his head.

Wu Wei staggered his body and hurriedly stepped into the threshold.

Wen Xinlan had already severed her carotid artery, and blood kept spurting out.

She looked at Wu Wei, with a smile on the corner of her lips, but her eyes were very empty.

It turned out that the blood was coming out little by little, and the body would become softer and softer, and the feeling of knowing that I was going to die soon was really uncomfortable.

"Queen Mother, you ......"

"Get out!" Wen Xinlan said the last word to him softly, and as soon as her body tilted, she fell to the ground. Before her consciousness disappeared completely, Wen Xinlan was still happy in her mind.

Gan Peilin, I have one last gift for you! Just wait and enjoy!

Wu Wei just looked at her quietly, as if Wen Xinlan's death and his death were the same thing. The whole person was stunned and didn't feel anything.

Huo Qing came out of the wing room after Wen Xinlan was completely breathless, and saluted Gan Peilin: "Madam, everything is under your control." ”

This sounds particularly awkward.

Gan Peilin never thought of forcing her to die. It's just that she is too strong to be willing to exhaust her will in this deep palace.

"She is the queen mother after all, and the funeral ceremony is carried out according to the regulations that the queen mother should have. These things don't need to be handled by the Prime Minister's Mansion in the end. Gan Peilin sighed, suddenly feeling empty in his heart.

"Madame, please stay." Huo Qing blocked Gan Peilin's way.

"Anything else?" Gan Peilin asked sideways.

"It's almost time to prepare." Huo Qing's face sank, and his expression became much more solemn.

"Madame naturally knows, I don't need you to remind me." Yanzi stepped forward and stopped Huo Qing: "Do whatever you have to do." ”

"Wait." Gan Peilin sensed that something was wrong and stopped Huo Qing: "What do you want me to prepare?" ”

Huo Qing was just about to open his mouth, but he was glared back by Yanzi.

"Madam, let Huo Qing get busy with these things. Let's clean up first and go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion. These days, I don't know what happened to Princess Zhen. "Swallows have to change the subject.

"You say." Wen Xinlan felt that something was wrong, and her eyes looked at Huo Qing for a moment.

"Isn't it time for Madame to prepare for her master's accession to the throne?" Huo Qing's mouth was fast, but he still said it.

The swallow gave him a displeased look in return.

"What do you mean...... Let me control the DPRK-China regime and ...... The children of the first emperor and Princess Qingning are ready to ...... at any time Disappear? Gan Peilin's heart chuckled: "I said it, I will not participate in the political affairs of the DPRK and China." Even if Jiang Yu wanted to get back what belonged to him, he had to come back and get it himself. ”

"Madam, the master is now lacking in skills, I'm afraid he can't do it. Please be considerate. Huo Qing insisted on his own opinion.

"Well, Madame knows these things. You go first. Yanzi stopped Huo Qing so that he wouldn't say more.

But Huo Qing was just like Sai Yan, and he wanted to say something happy: "Madame still has to think about how to persuade the protector of the country for her master." After all, he is fighting for the imperial court, and he is afraid that he will not be able to accept such variables for a while. ”

"......" Gan Peilin understood now. After a moment of silence, she said slowly, "I know, you can go first." ”

Yanzi was in a heavy mood, she knew Gan Peilin.

It is simply a difficult thing to persuade the old protector of Xu to surrender to Jiang Yu and turn his back on the new emperor. Not to mention, it is necessary to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots of the new emperor.

"Madam, these things will be taken care of by the master later. You still ignore it. For now, let's go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion first. I have to give Princess Zhen a good day. Yanzi persuaded movingly: "There are so many female relatives in the house, I don't know how to be afraid at this time." After all, Yu Linwei had blocked the entire Prime Minister's Mansion before......"

"Let's go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion first." Gan Peilin had just taken two steps forward when he saw King Qin standing there.

At this time, there were already inner chamberlains running out of the queen mother's bedroom, crying and howling like a wolf: "The queen mother...... The Queen Mother committed suicide ......"

"Shut up." Su Qizhe shouted coldly.

The inner eunuch was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground.

"The Queen Mother has passed away." Susaki Tetsu corrected his words.

"Yes." The inner chamberlain hurriedly saluted and cried: "The queen mother is gone-"

Su Qizhe looked at Gan Peilin, and there was a hint of intriguing on the corner of his lips: "When Prince Yin learned that Chenguo was attacked, he immediately rushed to the west to rescue him, your trick is indeed clever." I think that when he returns to Chenguo, it will be too late! ”

"Attacking Tatsu has nothing to do with me." Gan Peilin thought to himself, this should be Ao Xuan's doing.

"Really?" Su Qizhe was a little unconvinced: "There is news from the front, saying that General Ao Jia died on the battlefield. I was just about to believe it, when I heard that the kingdom of Tatsu had been attacked. Really has nothing to do with you? ”

"Believe it or not." Gan Peilin didn't bother to explain to him.

Wu Zi moved forward, and before he had taken two steps, Su Qi Zhe caught up.

"What about the new emperor?" He asked.

"The nurse is taking care of it." Gan Peilin replied casually.

"I'm not asking you where he is." Su Qi Zhe's eyebrows sank: "I'm asking, will you let him live?" ”

Stopped, Gan Peilin turned to look at Su Qizhe. "What do you think?"

"I hate the Queen Mother for plotting to kill the first emperor, but I never thought of taking away the Xuan family. Gan Peilin, that child is the flesh and blood of the first emperor and Princess Qingning. You're really going to hurt him, I'm not done with you! Su Qizhe warned her in a cold tone: "Don't force me to do it!" ”

"Got it." Gan Peilin perfunctory him with these three words, but his heart was very chaotic.

Jiang Yu's temper probably won't let this child survive!
