Night falls again.

The queen's tent was surrounded by the emperor's 'attendants' for three floors. Outer three floors.

The palace 'girl' named Yanran was beaten by the emperor for thirty boards. said that she was keeping her life. Go back to the palace and take it again.

The queen was lying on the couch with a dejected face.

Her mind couldn't help but think about the few conditions that the emperor had offered this morning.

If you want the emperor to be not to blame. Don't abolish her as a queen.

OK.

First of all, the Nalan family should 'hand over' the 200,000 troops in the southwest. and he shall give ten million taels of silver to the treasury.

Otherwise. The queen has no virtue.' Privately, self-raising noodles. so that the beads are darkly knotted. This one charge alone. It was enough to 'force' her to death. Of course. She's not dead yet. The emperor will also condemn the Nalan family. The Nalan clan mansion topple. I don't know how many souls are going to squeeze into the Yellow Spring.

The emperor is trying to be shameless this time. I'm going to pull the Nalan family into the water.

A tear condensed in the corner of the queen's eye. Then a silent slip.

Yan Ran dragged her injured body and waited on the side. She comforted the queen and said, "Mother. Don't think so much. Stay in the green mountains without worrying about the lack of firewood. Just pass this hurdle. Let's go back to the palace and beat the child in the belly. No one will know about this. The power of the army is gone. I can recapture it again. The money is gone. You can earn it back. But if your body collapses. Then you won't be able to get anything back."

The queen's palm gently landed on her lower abdomen. She seemed to be able to feel it clearly. There's a little heart beating in there. It's her child. After saying goodbye to her two sons. This is her third child. She is also in this world. The closest relative......

Right now. She didn't know if it was a boy or a girl.

But she won't know. Because this child is a seed of iniquity. It is not destined to come into this world. It exists in itself. It's iniquity.

It was as if a knife had pierced the queen's heart. Then put her heart back and forth. Cut into pieces one by one.

"Woo......" The queen suddenly covered her mouth. Cry out loud.

Her tears were menacing. How to block. Can't stop it.

Yan Ran was at a loss. I had to hold the queen. The master and servant wept bitterly together.

And at the same time. In the ancestral hall of the Nalan clan in Kyoto.

Dozens of 'fine' heroes of the Nalan clan gathered together. The patriarch sat high at the top. His old man's hair is gray. Approaching old age. It is among the Nalan clan. The most respected elders. Peacetime. This patriarch is also kind-eyed. Laugh when you see people. He is an amiable elder.

But at this moment. The old man's face was indescribably cold and solemn. It's ugly enough to scrape off three layers of frost.

Of course. The patriarch is not the only one whose face is ugly. And all the people in the ancestral hall.

They have received a secret letter from the Queen. The contents of it almost made the patriarch vomit blood in anger. That's why the patriarch held this family meeting overnight. for. It's to discuss with everyone how to deal with this earth-shattering scandal.

The quiet fallen leaves in the ancestral hall can be heard. Only the heart of the candlestick. Occasionally, a few sparks pop up and make a subtle crackling sound. But it does sound so abrupt and shocking.

Everyone was in their breath. No one will speak first.

Finally. It was the patriarch who spoke first. He said to the middle-aged man sitting on his left, "Jinde. The queen is your daughter-in-law. Now something happened to her. How do you say. The emperor wants our Nalan family to 'hand over' 200,000 troops in the southwest. And 10 million taels of silver." The last few words. The patriarch spoke with great heaviness. To know. Today's Nalan family is no longer what it used to be. The former Nalan family. Controls half of the Great Xia Dynasty. It's in addition to royalty. The world's largest family.

But over the years. The talent of the clan is dying. The great family business began to decay. The queen only knows how to squander in the palace. She invokes the resources and guards of her clan without permission. Every time it causes incalculable damage. But her 'daughter' of the Nalan family. She was the empress of the Great Xia Dynasty. The prosperity of the Nalan family. And rely on her. So the patriarchs turned a blind eye. Close your eyes.

But since the flooding in Gangnam. The king of Jin will calculate. swept the Jiangnan officialdom in one fell swoop. Uproot the centuries-old legacy of the Nalan family. The Nalan family can be described as a big injury.

And now. If you 'hand over' the 200,000 soldiers and 10,000,000 taels of silver? Then the Nalan family. It's really just an empty shell......

The patriarch thought of this. His eyes darkened a little. The whole person instantly aged a lot.

Nalan Jinde listened to the patriarch's words. He stood up with a gloomy expression and guilt. Then look to the ancestral tablet enshrined behind you. He fell to his knees.

"Patriarch. It's Jinde who is not filial. Unexpectedly, such a bad moral. The 'daughter' who insults the 'door' lintel. Jinde is incompetent. Families are affected. No matter what the clan does with it. Jinde has no complaints." As he spoke, he slammed his head on the ground. In a corner where no one is looking. A trace of 'gloom' crossed the depths of his eyes.

At this time. A young man of the clan. A man named Nalan Xinhong stepped forward. His expression was indignant. It made the already big eyes even bigger. It looks a little scary: "Patriarch. The military power in our clan must not be 'handed over'. Right now, we've lost control of Jiangnan officialdom. Even the central abdomen was removed one by one. Your Majesty, this is a desire to destroy our entire race. If you 'hand over' the military power now. Then we're really going to be slaughtered."

"yes. Patriarch. This military power cannot be 'handed over,' nor can it be given silver."

"Patriarch. Can't give."

"Such a queen. What is the use of our Nalan family? Ever since she ascended to the back seat. Have you ever done one thing for your clan? She's just relying on the prestige of our Nalan family to show off her might."

"That's right. Over the years, we have put in a lot of manpower and material resources just to clean up the mess for her. Now she's going to bring down our entire Nalan family."

Someone started the way. The rest of the people jumped out of the room. You say everything I say. Almost all of them did not agree with the conditions of the emperor.

Every word these people say. Nalan Jinde's fist clenched. His lowered gaze gradually became 'yin' and fierce. The calm makes people feel terrible. But at this moment, the crowd in the ancestral hall was 'excited'. Actually no one found out about this.

Nalan Jinde knows. These people say so. It's not just for the good of the family. In order to pull down the heir of his clan.

Hasn't the queen done anything practical for the Nalan clan?

.

If it weren't for his 'daughter', he would be devoted to the interests of the Nalan family. How could the emperor be so cold to her?

My own 'daughter' is too stupid. First fell in love with the unsympathetic emperor. And then he is bent on protecting the interests of the clan. This is the emperor's position. But all 'women' can be selfish. She's not going to be in such a bad situation now.

Stockpiling noodles.

So what.

It's not because the emperor hasn't entered the harem for ten years. The queen has been widowed for so many years. What's wrong with having a few playthings.

Don't say anything else. In the Great Xia Dynasty, those famous 'doors' and noble 'women' were really clean. Not to mention the 'daughters' of the Nalan family, who are like golden branches and 'jade' leaves.

Now something has happened. He poured all the dirty water on his daughter's head.

Hum. These ungrateful villains.

Nalan Jinde lost his wife at an early age. There is only one son and one 'daughter' under his knees, and his favorite is his little 'daughter'. Today's queen mother. The more than ten years before marriage. The queen is favored to be windy. Rain and rain. That's why I developed an arrogant 'nature' that is self-respecting. There is only what she doesn't want. There was nothing she couldn't ask for. Even the emperor. As long as she says she wants this man. Nalan Jinde also unscrupulously 'forced' the emperor who had just ascended the throne to marry her. and made her queen.

Over the years. No matter how much the emperor snubs this empress. Her position is still as steady as Tarzan.

For Nalan Jinde. It's never wrong to have a 'girl' you love. There's never anything wrong with that. Even if it's wrong. Someone else harmed her.

The people in the ancestral hall were still talking about it. Nalan Jinde closed his eyes heavily. Force yourself to be patient.

The patriarch coughed softly. The voices of the crowd suddenly stopped. The patriarch sighed. "What you are talking about. I don't know. It's just that if the military power and silver are not 'handed over' right now, Your Majesty will issue an order to exterminate the Nalan clan."

Nalan Xinhong has a stalk neck. He said very stiffly: "What are you afraid of. Anyway, Your Majesty has long had the intention of eradicating my Nalan clan. Now let's sit and die. It's better to fight for it. Our Nalan family's 'private' soldiers plus 200,000 soldiers in the southwest. That's half a million. As long as we are surprised. Catch somebody off his guard. Maybe this world. Let's sit in our Nalan family."

That's a big reversal. But it made everyone's blood boil.

Oh, yes. Instead of sitting and waiting to die. Let the emperor 'force' step by step, they might as well do the opposite. Fight for it. Maybe this country will be in your own hands.

The patriarch's gaze froze. Then. A razor-sharp light flashed through his old, cloudy eyes. But he still didn't say anything.

Nalan Jinde choked up a little at this time. It was as if something was stuck in his throat. It was extremely difficult for him to say every word: "Uncles and brothers of the clan. So what are you going to do...... What will the queen do?" If the Nalan family wants to be opposed. The queen will definitely not survive in the palace. And. The queen is also a stain on the Nalan family. As long as the emperor makes the empress's crimes public. Then the Nalan family has become an unrighteous teacher. It's a 'chaotic' thief. This is for the Nalan family, who are going to rebel. is very disadvantageous. And. If you want to rebel, you must always be famous. Nalan Jinde was worried. It's the people of the clan who plan to use the queen's life. When this is made head.

Really. I only heard Nanalan Xinhong say: "Seventh uncle. We all know you love 'women' with all your heart. But in the face of family righteousness. Don't be soft-hearted."

The patriarch also nodded at this time: "Jinde. Empress. It's really not fit to live anymore. Our Nalan family. There is no room for such a 'girl'."

Talking. He looked into Nalan Jinde's eyes. A little more fierce as a knife's coercion. Such momentum burst out suddenly. So that everyone in the ancestral hall couldn't help but feel a slight numbness in their scalps.

Maybe it's because the patriarch's aspect is too charitable. So they forgot about it for a while. It turned out that this kind old patriarch. He was also a ruthless and decisive horn 'color', and the blood on his hands. I'm afraid there aren't 10,000. There are also eight thousand.

Nalan Jinde's face was ached and cowardly, and his lips trembled. Wei Wei said, "Yes...... Jinde understands. Jinde said. No matter what decision is made in the clan. Jinde has no complaints......".
