Ande stumbled towards Xia Yinhuan's address with the Queen Mother.

Maybe she was in a hurry, the queen mother's graceful and luxurious makeup was washed away by sweat, and it rained lightly, and when Ande took the queen mother to find Xia Yinhuan, she was playing chess with him in Cangchengjing's mansion.

The Queen Mother walked up like seeing a rescuer, forcibly suppressed the excitement in her heart, and said in a somewhat solemn and pertinent tone: "Yin Huan, the mourning family wants to ask for ......"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Yin Huan slowly get up and walk in front of the Queen Mother, hooked his lips and chuckled, "The Queen Mother doesn't have to be so polite, I and the Queen Mother are obviously not familiar to this extent." After speaking, he glanced at it coldly, "Ande, the Queen Mother has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and her status is noble, as a slave, you dare to take the Queen Mother out of the palace without authorization, what should you be guilty of?" ”

The Queen Mother's face was damaged, and her tone couldn't help but become a little stern, "Xia Yinhuan, no matter how you say that you are also a person from my Daqing Kingdom, don't say this first, you were also a person who used to be a queen, you must know that this royal family is implicated in the life and death of the entire country, and now that the harem has been controlled by traitors, if you are willing to come forward, then Ziyan will definitely not be your opponent......!" ”

"Shut up!" Yin Huan did not drop a chess move in his hand, but just turned his head and looked at the Queen Mother slowly.

At this time, the rain in the sky was getting heavier and heavier, and the earth was covered with a layer of white mist, so that people could not see clearly, at this moment Xia Yinhuan's expression was as light as a lake, without waves, just looked at the Queen Mother fixedly, and said quietly: "Queen Mother, you will also say that I am a person who once served as a queen, since I have been, what is happening in the harem now, what does it have to do with me?" After speaking, he raised his lips and smiled lightly, and the smile did not reach the bottom of his cold eyes at all, "Besides, the adulterer that the Queen Mother said also refers to King Jing?" Glancing at Cang Chengjing coldly, "After all, he is also your biological son." ”

Although the Queen Mother knew that Yin Huan's words had the intention of provocation, she still didn't dare to blame, "Yin Huan, in this way, the royal family is declining, someone must be able to take on this responsibility, you and the emperor are a husband and wife for a hundred days, and if the people who share the same bed don't help, then who else will help?" ”

"The Queen Mother." Cang Chengjing finally got up, and he was politely blessed, "Which side do you want to stand on, is Yin Huan's freedom, besides, this battle hasn't started yet, aren't you starting to worry that the imperial brother will lose?" In that case, it is not appropriate for the country to be handed over to him, right? ”

"You ......" The Queen Mother's body trembled slightly, and Ander hurriedly stepped forward to help her walk to the side and sit down. Only then did he kneel in front of Yin Huan, "Master, this time it is the slave and Tianlang brothers who were ordered by the Queen Mother to be saved, the harem is really already an adulterous concubine, and all the concubines who have had a relationship with the master have all been disposed of by Dazan Ziyan openly and secretly." Even Concubine Xiao Shu only said one sentence, you are a queen worthy of the respect of the world, and now she has been sentenced to death, and she still has a breath left in the world. ”

Yin Huan's eyes flickered slightly, and then, with a faint smile, "How can you be so vicious?" The harem has always been a place of rumors, non-credible, non-certain. Queen Mother, it's rare for King Jing to be free today, you can accompany Yin Huan to compete in chess skills, if there is nothing else, please ask the Queen Mother to go back to the palace first. After speaking, he flicked his sleeves and walked to the chessboard and looked at the chess pieces quietly.

"Xia Yinhuan, the mourning family used to see that you were a smart and kind-hearted person, how did you become so cold-blooded and ruthless? Mourning is the queen mother, and now she wants to leave the palace, and she must be like a thief...... Yin Huan, it is indeed the mourning family who did something wrong, and now that he has received retribution, can you go back to the palace for the sake of Daqing and the emperor, for the sake of me, an old woman who came so far to find you. The Queen Mother's tone was heavy, and her eyes were staring at Yin Huan expectantly. Besides, the emperor is really waiting for you to return to the palace. ”

Xia Yinhuan's expression was awe-inspiring, and he suddenly knocked down the chessboard, and the black and white chess pieces scattered all over the place made a jingling sound, and the Queen Mother glanced down, only to feel that the sound of these chess pieces was particularly crisp, and if you look closely, it turned out to be made of fine jadeite.

Yin Huan looked at the Queen Mother's somewhat dazed look, and couldn't help sneering, "See, do you think these chess pieces are treasures and priceless, but in my eyes they are worthless, your so-called position as the queen is priceless and precious in the eyes of everyone, but in my eyes it is just like an ant, and you have repeatedly trapped me in injustice, and regarded me as a thorn in the flesh, not to mention the dust!" Didn't he hurt me enough? Do you want me to pull out the scarred heart and show it to you? ”

She looked at the Queen Mother with a smile, "Also, your henchman, Ye Xinghuan, is someone I can protect with my life, such a person, do you dare to stay by your side?" ”

Listening to these accusations, the Queen Mother is also a woman, so she naturally understands what Xia Yinhuan means, and she has already made up her mind not to help.

"Yin Huan, even if you be......g for help," the queen mother gritted her teeth, the harem was about to be controlled by traitors, she had always been noble, she would never have thought that one day she would talk to people in such a low voice, and she never thought that begging people was such a difficult thing, maybe she had been so low-voiced when the emperor was not yet the emperor, but that was because of the glory and wealth later, in order to seize the throne of the emperor! Now it's for the people and the royal family!

Yin Huan didn't save face for the Queen Mother at all, just brushed her body, "Ande, I'm tired, help me in to rest." ”

Seeing that Xia Yinhuan was leaving, the Queen Mother could no longer hide her anger, and said angrily: "Xia Yinhuan - the face mourning family has already given you enough!" What else do you want! As long as you are willing to help the emperor, whatever the mourning family once owed you, you just have to find the mourning family to get it! There is no complaint from the mourning family! But you can't be so cruel to the emperor! ”

Xia Yinhuan raised her eyebrows and smiled coldly, "You and Cang Rinchen owe me, and I can't pay it back in this life." ”

After saying that, he turned around and left with Ande, and the voice of the Queen Mother faintly came from behind him, "Xia Yinhuan, the mourning family will kneel down for you until you can forgive the mourning family and the emperor!" ”

Xia Yinhuan's departing back did not stop because of the Queen Mother's kneeling, and Ande looked back at the Queen Mother with some reluctance, the harsh and vicious Queen Mother was now like a migratory bird that had lost its wings, kneeling helplessly in the heavy rain, the raindrops washed her face and the pride of the royal family was also washed away......

"Master......" Ander stopped talking.

"Think I'm being ruthless?" Yin Huan turned his head coldly to look at Ande, his eyes were as cold as a pool, "It was Cang Linchen who forced me to embark on this road, as a king, he is not qualified to regret it, nor is he qualified to let the queen beg me." ”

Ande shook his head, "No, the master is not ruthless, the slave just wants to say, master, no matter what happens next, do it according to your own wishes, now the emperor is leading the army to recruit in person, and the harem is dominated by purple smoke, the queen mother is really helpless to come out to find the master, no matter what the master does next, to be a person who lives for himself, or to be involved in that gunsmoke again, the slave is willing to follow the master all the time, never give up." ”

Xia Yinhuan was sour, his nose was sour, probably in this life, he had heard the most touching and warm words, that is, no matter what happened to the master next, Ande would follow the master's words, the people who care about it wholeheartedly are just floating clouds, and those who really care about themselves are always by their side, no matter how the world changes and how people's hearts are scattered.

When the night walker returned home, it was already the time of the child.

Yin Huan was resting, and when he heard movement in the room, he opened his eyes tiredly and asked lightly: "The Queen Mother is still kneeling outside?" ”

I saw Ye Xinghuan nodded lightly, his eyes were indifferent and mocking, "Who in the royal family is not like this, when you have use value, do everything possible to please you, and when you have no value, you will abandon it like a piece of." Yin Huan, you should see clearly. ”

Yin Huan shook his head and said, "You go out, I'm a little unwell and want to rest." ”

Ye Xinghuan didn't say anything more, sighed without a trace, turned around and walked out.

Looking at the back of Ye Xinghuan leaving, Yin Huan lay quietly on the bed, her mind was messy, and now the life and death of the sky and the palace were just in her thoughts. No, she can't be soft-hearted, she can't go back to the place that once made her heart like ashes, death, it's not terrible, the most terrible thing is that the heart is dead, people are like walking corpses when they live, tomorrow she will go to send the queen mother, look out the window, the rain is getting heavier and heavier, and it may be a torrential rain in the second half of the night.

Ye Xinghuan looked at the Queen Mother who had her hair scattered and knelt on the ground, and the Queen Mother also looked directly at him coldly, he suddenly raised his lips and smiled, "The Queen Mother wants to get rid of me, but now, but she is sent to the door alone, aren't you afraid that I will be bad for you?" ”

"The country is about to die, what is the importance of mourning the honor and disgrace of the family, life and death? Night Xinghuan, in the final analysis, the mourning family owes you, if you want to take this life, you can take it at any time. ”

"Queen Mother, I'm afraid you forgot one thing, I killed someone, and the fee was not low." He walked up to the Queen Mother and squatted down, and said with a cold smile: "If you still have a trace of charity in your heart, you shouldn't be here today." What has Cang Linchen done, how can you, as the queen mother, know nothing? Dazan Ziyan is the queen he personally selected, and now, what does the scourge of the harem have to do with Yin Huan? Queen Mother, don't you think this matter is ridiculous? With that, he turned and walked away.

Ander quietly flashed out of the shadows and said softly: "Niangniang, the master has already fallen asleep, why don't you get up first, tomorrow, when the master gets up, the slave will talk about it again?" The master has a hard mouth and a soft heart, and his heart is attached to the emperor, but he has a knot in his heart that has not yet been put down, and he hopes that the queen mother will not blame him. ”

"Ander, stand down. The mourning family is fine, today's fruit is the cause of the day before yesterday, and the mourning family has this retribution. Even if Yin Huan is to blame, the mourning family has nothing to say. The Queen Mother shook her head a little weakly and chuckled, "Since the mourning family has decided to come here, they have expected this consequence. For the sake of Daqing and the emperor's country, why should the mourning family make such a sacrifice? ”

Ander looked at Yin Huan's closed door, sighed softly, and turned to leave.

On the second day, when Xia Yinhuan saw the Queen Mother again, the Queen Mother's expression was weak, sweating profusely, her eyes were swollen and bloodshot, and her lips were chapped.

"Go back, I won't go back to the palace." When Xia Yinhuan dropped this sentence and was about to leave, she felt that the hem of her skirt was restrained by a force, and when she looked down, it was the Queen Mother who hugged her feet.

"Yin Huan, the mourner begs you, even if you don't think about the emperor, why do you, why don't you want to think about the dead Xiao Jian, who is so innocent, was thrown in a dry well...... All this has a great connection with purple smoke! "In the end, it is the royal family with arrogant flesh, after the queen mother knelt all night, her body was weak and tight, and it rained all night last night, today's queen mother looks like she is going to disappear, and her kneeling body on the ground looks so eye-catching.

"Xiao Jian......" Yin Huan muttered to himself.

Seeing that Xia Yinhuan was shaken, the Queen Mother immediately followed: "Didn't you say that you wanted to avenge him?" If the mourning family is not miscalculated, Ziyan is very suspicious, she wants to use the power of the mourning family to get rid of you, she just doesn't want to release the suspicion between the mourning family and Ye Xinghuan, and she also wants to use this matter to make Ye Xinghuan's identity public to the world. ”

After finishing speaking, she stared at Xia Yinhuan tightly, Xiao Jian, it was the deepest pain in Yin Huan's heart, if so, even this could not move Yin Huan, she could only die. After being silent for a long time, Yin Huan finally confided: "Has Cang Linchen decided to go on the expedition?" ”

While helping the Queen Mother up carefully, looking at this woman whose hair has turned gray and has worked hard for half her life, she sighed slightly, the Queen Mother didn't seem to feel that she had suffered any grievances at all, and smiled faintly, "For the king, if you can't fight for your country and reputation in this life, you are a coward, and the emperor refuses to grovel to Ye Xinghuan, and this battle will come out." ”

Yin Huan raised her eyebrows lightly, "Ande, go pack up your things, send the Queen Mother back to the palace first, and then we, enter the palace to face the saint." ”
