Later, the maid seemed to have been caught committing adultery with the guards, and was finally beaten to death with a stick and thrown into a mass grave.

Not to mention adultery, whether it is true or not. King Zhou's neglect of Zhou Ziqin for so many years will make him resentful. The reason why Yan Lingyue mentioned her biological mother at this time was also to let Zhou Ziqin deepen this resentment.

Zhou Ziqin listened to Yan Lingyue's words and sneered, "Maybe it's because of my biological mother." The queen was the original match of her father, and when her father was still a prince, she followed her father. Thinking of this love, how could the father not favor the ninth brother. ”

"Who let me not have a noble mother," Zhou Ziqin clenched his hands into fists, and his voice was gloomy. Yan Lingyue, who listened to it, swallowed her saliva, in fact, she was afraid, in case Zhou Ziqin suddenly became beastly and wanted to kill her, then she really had no power to fight back.

"The third prince can't say that, no matter whether your mother's status is noble or not, I believe she is the person who loves you the most in this world," Yan Lingyue said, "This feeling has been quite profound after I gave birth to Ling'an." ”

"Really?" Zhou Ziqin hooked his lips and strode out.

Looking at Zhou Ziqin's back, a trace of guilt flashed in Yan Lingyue's heart. She and Zhou Ziqin have no grievances or hatreds, but now she is trying to take revenge, so stimulating him. Even if she knew that Zhou Ziqin was not a good person, she still felt uncomfortable. It felt like she was a bad person.

She didn't know where Zhou Ziqin would go next, the only thing she could do was to wait for Wang Lao's arrangement. With the presence of Mr. Wang, she seems to have a backbone, and she is not afraid of anything.

The days passed day by day, accompanied by Zhou Ling'an, Yan Lingyue's life was very fulfilling, but Zhou Ziqin's side was very quiet, until Zhou Ziyu was about to return to the imperial city, and he didn't see the slightest movement.

Yan Lingyue thought that he was not going to do it for a while, and the heart he was carrying gradually relaxed. That afternoon, when she was bathing Zhou Ling'an with Mama Li, a letter from the old monk Wang came from outside the palace.

In the letter, Mr. Wang asked Yan Lingyue to pay attention to her safety recently and asked her to take care of Zhou Ling'an.

Although Mr. Wang didn't say exactly what was going on, Yan Lingyue subconsciously thought of Zhou Ziqin. The heart she put back in her stomach instantly lifted it again.

Originally, Mama Li and the nurse took Zhou Ling'an together and lived next door, and after reading the letter, she let them move into her room that night. She also knew that Old Master Wang was just reminding her that there were so many guards in Ming Hanxuan, and there might not be an accident, but she was still not at ease, only by seeing Zhou Ling'an with her own eyes could she feel at ease.

After having a child, she knew how hard it was to be a mother, and almost all her energy was put into her child's body every day, and she wanted to help her child avoid all dangers.

Because of this, she missed her father and queen mother even more, and at the same time, her resentment towards King Zhou deepened.

In the following days, Yan Lingyue was always paying attention to the movements of Zhou Ziqin and King Zhou. Until the evening of the third day, when she had just eaten dinner and was walking back and forth in the room with Zhou Ling'an in her arms, there was an exclamation outside.

"What's wrong, this is?" Yan Lingyue walked to the door with Zhou Ling'an in her arms, and as soon as she looked up, she saw that the sky above the northwest direction was fiery red.

"This ......" Yan Lingyue was stunned in place.

At this time, Zhang Yu hurriedly ran back to the courtyard from outside, panting and said, "The king, the king's bedroom is out of water." ”

Yan Lingyue, who reacted, hurriedly asked, "Why did you go out of the water, is King Zhou okay?" ”

Zhang Yu shook his head, "I don't know, the slave just went out, and as soon as he heard the news, he hurriedly ran back......"

Without waiting for Zhang Yu to finish speaking, Yan Lingyue stuffed the child into Mama Li's arms, "Take good care of the little princess, don't step out of Ming Hanxuan, I'll come back when I go." ”

After the words fell, Yan Lingyue strode out.

"Miss, where are you going?" Seeing this, Mama Li was anxious, but she couldn't chase Zhou Lingan out with her arms. Immediately urged Zhang Yudao, "What are you doing stupidly?" Chase. ”

Zhang Yu, who had not yet recovered his breath, immediately chased him out. followed Yan Lingyue and ran all the way to the vicinity of King Zhou's bedroom. Before he got closer, he saw the guards and eunuchs carrying water back and forth to extinguish the fire.

Seeing that Yan Lingyue was about to go forward, Zhang Yu hurriedly grabbed her, "My Nine Emperor Princesses, you can't go any further." At this time, others can't hide, why do you still come forward? ”

At this moment, Yan Lingyue couldn't care about anything, she only had one thought in her mind, she wanted to see how King Zhou was doing?

Breaking free of Zhang Yu's hand, she ran forward for a distance, but unfortunately saw King Zhou standing outside the palace unharmed, while Zhou Ziqin was escorted by the guards and was kneeling in front of King Zhou.

Seeing this scene, Yan Lingyue's violently beating heart suddenly fell to the bottom. Zhou Ziqin failed? Zhou Ziqin actually failed?

Recognizing this fact, Yan Lingyue's whole person lost her strength, her mind was in chaos, and in the end, she didn't even remember how to return to Ming Hanxuan.

Early the next morning, the news that the three princes wanted to kill the monarch and seek to usurp the throne shocked the government and the opposition. The main reason is that everyone doesn't believe that he has such ambitions.

After all, Zhou Ziqin laughs all day long, and everyone has a good impression of him. Even when Zhou Ziyu fell and Zhou Zichang was arrested, many people in the court supported Zhou Ziqin as the prince.

No one could have imagined that the third prince, who seemed to be uninterested in power, would do such a rebellious thing as killing his father.

What's even more exciting news is that Zhou Ziqin, the third prince who was thrown into prison, disappeared out of thin air on the fifth day of imprisonment. The jailer in charge of guarding Zhou Ziyu turned the cell upside down, only to find that the dungeon where Zhou Ziyu lived had a secret passage leading directly to the outside of the palace.

It is said that King Zhou was so angry that he fainted directly in the imperial study.

In Ming Hanxuan, after Yan Lingyue, who was pruning flower branches, heard the news, the scissors in her hand fell to the ground with a "bang", almost hitting her feet.

But Mama Li was still taken aback, "Miss, what's wrong with you?" I can't give up these days. ”

Yan Lingyue didn't pay attention to Mama Li, and after picking up the scissors, she continued to prune the flower branches.

Mama Li was worried that Yan Lingyue would hurt herself by mistake, so she found a reason, saying that the nurse had finished feeding the little princess, so she asked Yan Lingyue to hug the little princess, and then put away the scissors in her hand.

Zhou Ling'an, who has been three months old, has learned to grasp things. Catch everything she sees, even her own face doesn't let go, Yan Lingyue's hair is often messy by her. Every time she hugged Zhou Ling'an, Yan Lingyue was angry and laughing. Of course, her anxious heart will also be filled by Zhou Ling'an.

Zhou Ziqin failed to assassinate King Zhou, and Yan Lingyue was a little disappointed at the time, but she quickly relieved herself afterwards. Although Zhou Ziqin did not succeed in the assassination, after King Zhou experienced this incident, he must have been hit both physically and psychologically. Moreover, King Zhou is seriously ill, even if he escapes this catastrophe this time, he may not be able to live for long.

What really made Yan Lingyue take it to heart was Zhou Ziqin's escape.

The reason why Zhou Ziqin dared to kill his father was somewhat due to her factors. Yan Lingyue was originally a little worried, but after Zhou Ziqin reacted, he would point the finger at her. Now that Zhou Ziqin has fled, Yan Lingyue is even more scared.

She is not afraid of death, she is afraid of revenge being delayed. What's more, she was worried that Zhou Ziqin would hit Zhou Ling'an with his mind in order to take revenge on her and Zhou Ziyu.

Seeing that Yan Lingyue was getting thinner and thinner, Mama Li was worried, so she invited Wang Laoju to Ming Hanxuan. Mama Li knew that their young lady was getting close to Mr. Wang in private.

Seeing Yan Lingyue with a sad face, Old Monk Wang smiled instead, touched his beard and said, "Do you know why Zhou Ziqin failed so completely?" That's because the old man passed the news of Zhou Ziqin's desire to usurp the throne to King Zhou in advance. ”

"What?!" Yan Lingyue's eyes widened when she heard this, "Uncle, why are you doing this?" King Zhou is our enemy! ”

"If you hadn't informed King Zhou in advance, maybe he would have died, and our great revenge would have been avenged."

"What about after the great revenge has been avenged? The Nine Emperors haven't come back yet, and above the court, the dragons are leaderless, is it possible that you really plan to let Zhou Ziqin succeed in seizing the throne and ascend to the throne? Mr. Wang asked rhetorically.

Of course she didn't want to. Yan Lingyue choked suddenly, "In that case, why did Uncle ask me to stimulate Zhou Ziqin and let him do something to plot against the throne?" Even if he is safe and sound, after Zhou Ziyu returns, he will not be an opponent. It can be said that he poses no threat to the position of crown prince. ”

Old Monk Wang smiled, "Of course, it's to gain the trust of King Zhou and the Nine Emperor Princes. Beiyan was destroyed, and the old man was escorted to Da Zhou, although the king of Zhou didn't want my life, but after I surrendered, I never reused me. Come to think of it, I still have a grudge against the old man. ”

"According to this situation, the Nine Emperor Princes may not be able to put me in their eyes when they ascend the throne in the future, if I am not powerful, then I will not have the ability to assist the Nine Emperor Princesses' future children."

Old Monk Wang said, sighing heavily, "No matter what, Little Crescent, you only need to remember one thing, that is, everything Uncle does is for revenge, all to pave the way for you. ”

"Uncle doesn't want you to worry too much, you don't need to think too much, just listen to Uncle and finish what Uncle has explained. As for the rest, you don't have to worry about the little crescent, let alone have any worries. With Uncle here, even if you fight for this old life, you will be protected. ”

Hearing these words of Old Master Wang, Yan Lingyue's eyes turned red. Especially the little crescent moon that shouted at the end, instantly pulled her memory back to those days in the Beiyan Palace.

You must know that Wang Laoju was beheaded for the sake of Beiyan. Just because of this affection, she shouldn't question Wang Laojushi.
