Chapter 71: Appearing

Concubine Hui glanced at Yan Lingyue with some disgust, "What a broom star, he was born to kill his own mother, and now he is dead to his father-in-law." In the future, it's best to stay away from us Xiangjun! ”

Concubine Hui shook off the silk handkerchief, twisted her waist and walked towards Zhou Xiangjun's room.

Mama Li angrily gestured her fist at Concubine Hui's back.

Yan Lingyue held Mama Li's hand and pulled Mama Li back to the room.

Concubine Hui glanced back at Yan Lingyue, pursed her lips, and knocked on Zhou Xiangjun's door. She responded with the sound of "crackling" falling things.

Concubine Hui was nervous, "Xiangjun? What happened to you? Tell your mother if you have anything. ”

What followed was Zhou Xiangjun's suppressed cry.

Concubine Hui was anxious, beckoned to the guards on both sides, and ordered them to pry the door open directly. Seeing Zhou Xiangjun lying on the table and sobbing, Concubine Hui was distressed, and after retreating, she entered the room alone.

Zhou Xiangjun saw Concubine Hui coming in, didn't want to bother, got up and walked to the bed in the inner room.

"Why don't you tell your mother what's wrong with you?" Concubine Hui grabbed Zhou Xiangjun's arm.

Zhou Xiangjun shook it off. If it weren't for her mother's objection, her father might have married her and Duan Minghong a long time ago, how could there be so many things now.

Although the previous Princess Selin also liked Duan Minghong and had been pursuing Duan Minghong, Zhou Xiangjun was unhappy, but she was not very worried, because she could see that Duan Minghong didn't like Princess Selin at all.

And although Yan Lingyue has been married, Duan Minghong's eyes when he looks at her are obviously different from looking at others. As long as he remembered Duan Minghong's gentleness towards Yan Lingyue, Zhou Xiangjun felt uncomfortable in his heart, "Mother, go out, let me be alone for a while." ”

"Xiangjun, you tell your mother that someone bullied you," Concubine Hui grabbed Zhou Xiangjun's arm and continued to ask.

Zhou Xiangjun was a little impatient, and blurted out, "If you hadn't been blocking it, Duan Minghong and I might have gotten married." ”

When Concubine Hui heard this, she was stunned, "You say it again?" ”

Zhou Xiangjun also realized that he had lost his words, and his face changed slightly, "It's nothing, the concubine should hurry back to her room to rest." When the words fell, she pushed Concubine Hui and was about to leave.

Concubine Hui's eyebrows furrowed, and she looked directly at Zhou Xiangjun and said, "You actually want to marry Duan Minghong?" ”

"Mother, you heard it wrong," Zhou Xiangjun covered his face and kept shaking his head.

Concubine Hui's face darkened, "Concubine Hui has already said that it is impossible for you to marry Duan Minghong, so you will die of this heart." ”

Zhou Xiangjun, who was still weak-hearted, heard this, his eyes widened, "Why?!" Major General Duan is brave and good at fighting, and has countless military achievements, how many ladies in this city would like their daughters to marry Major General Duan, why is the mother concubine so repulsive? ”

"Mother, this is all for your good," Concubine Hui said, "which mother doesn't want her daughter to live happily." Duan Minghong is stationed in the northwest all the year round, if you marry him, you will have to stay alone in the empty house in the future. What's the use of having more feats? As the princess of Da Zhou, do you need this honor? ”

"Mother!" Zhou Xiangjun cried, "My daughter wants to marry Duan Minghong not because of his status, nor because of honor, but for love." ”

The daughter admires Duan Minghong, and the daughter likes Duan Minghong and willingly wants to marry him. Besides, doesn't my father also value Duan Minghong......"

"Don't say it again," Concubine Hui interrupted Zhou Xiangjun, "No matter what, I won't agree to you marrying Duan Minghong." ”

Concubine Hui was angry, turned around and strode out of Zhou Xiangjun's room, and specially instructed the guards to take a good look at the Seventh Princess.

originally planned to stay in Lingshan Temple for a few more days, but because Yan Lingyue had an accident, and because Concubine Hui didn't want Zhou Xiangjun to contact Duan Minghong again, this trip to Lingshan Temple was only two days, and everyone packed their bags and prepared to go back to the palace.

Surprisingly, when she was leaving, Queen Xiao was reluctant to leave holding the pillar at the door.

Seeing Queen Xiao like this, Concubine Hui was a little impatient, "Anyway, no matter what, I have to leave with Xiangjun today." ”

Yan Lingyue hesitated, and King Zhou ordered her to accompany King Xiao to pray for Buddha in Lingshan Temple. Now that Queen Xiao is unwilling to leave, how can she go.

At this moment, Master Lingyin spoke, "Nine Emperor Princesses, please rest assured, in previous years, Queen Xiao often came to live alone in Lingshan Temple, and the old man would ensure the queen's safety." ”

That being said, leaving Queen Xiao in this temple by herself, Yan Lingyue always didn't feel good.

Seeing Yan Lingyue procrastinating, hesitating, Concubine Hui was annoyed, "Hurry up, stay here any longer, be careful that your life is not guaranteed." When the words fell, without giving Yan Lingyue a chance to speak, she pulled Zhou Xiangjun into the carriage.

Mama Zhou also said, "The Nine Emperor Princesses should go back to the palace, the queen mother may not be able to wait for a long time, the Nine Emperor Princesses should go back to the palace to cultivate their bodies." ”

After the accident in Houshan, Yan Lingyue's whole person was a lot haggard in the past two days.

Duan Minghong wanted to take those two men to the Criminal Department, and he definitely hoped that Yan Lingyue would follow him back to the palace, "I left more than half of the guards to protect the queen mother, so don't worry about the Nine Emperor Princesses." ”

Because she was worried about Bai Yaqing and Yan Le'an, Yan Lingyue didn't want to stay in Lingshan Temple anymore, so she left the temple with Duan Minghong immediately.

What Yan Lingyue didn't know was that on the night she left Lingshan Temple, a black shadow evaded the patrols of the guards and quietly came to this courtyard and entered Queen Xiao's room.

Looking at Queen Xiao, who was sleeping soundly on the bed, the black shadow walked to the side of the bed step by step and pulled down the mask.

If Yan Lingyue was still there, she could recognize at a glance that it was Zhou Ziyu, the Nine Emperor Princes that she and Queen Xiao thought about day and night!

Zhou Ziyu, who had been in a coma for nearly a month, and had been recuperating in the small mountain village for half a month after waking up, couldn't rest assured that Queen Xiao and Yan Lingyue could not be relieved, so he said goodbye to Old Man Gu, dragged his legs, which were not completely clear, and hurried back to the imperial city.

But as soon as he stepped into the gate of the imperial city, he heard the people talking, saying that King Zhou disliked Queen Xiao's insaneness, so he let her go to Lingshan Temple with the Nine Emperor Princesses?

Listening to the people lamenting that Queen Xiao had lost power, and listening to the people pity the Nine Emperor Princesses for becoming a widow at a young age, Zhou Ziyu's hands were tightly clenched into fists, and he rushed straight to Lingshan Temple without stopping.

Coincidentally, Yan Lingyue actually returned to the palace with Concubine Hui and them. On the way this afternoon, Zhou Ziyu also ran into them, if he hadn't hid in time, maybe he would have met Duan Minghong.

With so many guards guarding, Zhou Ziyu couldn't get close to Yan Lingyue for a while, and he was worried about Queen Xiao's body, so he bypassed them and came to Lingshan Temple.

In the early years, Zhou Ziyu also followed King Xiao to Lingshan Temple, so he was very familiar with this place, and he found Queen Xiao's room directly.

Seeing each other again after a month and a half, looking at Queen Xiao, who was much older, Zhou Ziyu felt guilty.

As a son of man, in the past seventeen years, he has never fulfilled his filial piety, and he has been taken care of by Queen Xiao stupidly. In the end, it even caused Queen Xiao to become what she is now. Rao is a seven-foot man like Zhou Ziyu, and he can't help but redden.

He will never let go of the culprit who killed him! In the past, his brain was slow to react and relied on Queen Xiao everywhere, and from now on, it is time for him to become Queen Xiao's backer.

Zhou Ziyu squatted down and wanted to help Queen Xiao pull the quilt that fell on the ground, but who would have thought that at this time, Queen Xiao suddenly opened her eyes and turned her head to look at Zhou Ziyu.

At this moment, Zhou Ziyu's nervous heartbeat was about to stop, and when he was about to open his mouth to call his mother, Queen Xiao's tears fell without warning.

"Ziyu, you're back to see your mother, aren't you?" Queen Xiao stared at Zhou Ziyu for a while, sat up with difficulty, and stretched out her hand to Zhou Ziyu, "My good son, they all said that you died, and the queen mother didn't believe it." How could my precious son be left alone. ”

Seeing that Queen Xiao lifted the quilt and was about to get out of bed, Zhou Ziyu hurriedly stopped, "Queen Mother, rest well, Ziyu is by her side." He helped Queen Xiao cover the quilt, sat on the edge of the bed, and said softly, "Sleep, Queen Mother, rest well." ”

Queen Xiao nodded, her eyes were still wide open, staring at Zhou Ziyu without blinking, "Queen Mother, aren't you dreaming, Ziyu, are you really back?" ”

"It's back, Ziyu is really back," Zhou Ziyu held Queen Xiao's hand tightly.

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back," Queen Xiao smiled, smiling and laughing tears left again.

Through the moonlight, looking at the wrinkles at the corners of Queen Xiao's eyes, Zhou Ziyu felt so uncomfortable that he was almost out of breath. Everything was because of him, if it weren't for him, how could his mother be so emaciated.

It is said that mother and son are connected, with Zhou Ziyu by her side, Queen Xiao slept unusually peacefully this night.

Mama Zhou, who was about to be woken up by Queen Xiao a few times the night before, felt strange. Early in the morning, without waiting for Queen Xiao to call her, she hurriedly came to Queen Xiao's room, lest something happen.

It wasn't until she saw that Queen Xiao was still asleep that she breathed a sigh of relief and quietly exited the room.

After the door was closed, Zhou Ziyu walked out from behind the screen. Glancing back at Queen Xiao again, a dodge disappeared behind the window.

It's not that he deliberately hides himself, he also wants to find out who is behind the scenes.

For the next few days, every night, Zhou Ziyu would come to accompany Queen Xiao. Listen to Queen Xiao babbling about the things of the year without logic......

Queen Xiao's mood gradually calmed down, and she didn't even make a fuss during the day, so she followed Master Lingyin to worship the Buddha in a regular manner.

Mama Zhou, who doesn't know why, calls Amitabha Buddha!

However, Master Lingyin moved the Buddha beads and said with a smile, "Queen Xiao, this is a heart disease, and heart disease still needs heart medicine." ”
