On this day, the palace was also very lively, I don't know why, the first snow was sent to the head of the Shang Division Bureau because of the matter of Shu Jin, and the queen finally couldn't stand it.

came to the emperor, knelt on his knees, and knocked his head.

"Your Majesty, the concubines have something to say, I don't know if I should say it or not."

"You're the queen, but it's okay to say it."

The queen slowly raised her head and straightened up, "Chen Heming, the general director of the Shang Division Bureau, has been in this position for more than ten years, and has not done a single thing wrong, nor has he arranged any wrong matters in the palace, why was it cut because of a brocade that came as a tribute, but it was not appropriate?" ”

"Of course I know what the queen said, and I know that there is something wrong with it, but the Confucian nobleman is now pregnant, so ......"

"Your Majesty, can you be lawless if you are pregnant? In the past, everyone in the harem knelt down to worship the ancestral hall, worshiped the Buddha and prayed to God, and when begging for rain, could Concubine De care if she was pregnant? When the concubine is a quiet nobleman, she is in charge of big and small affairs, can she care if she is pregnant? Can Concubine Wan rely on her pregnancy to do anything wrong? Your Majesty, there are many people in the palace who have given birth to heirs, but is there one who is as arrogant as a Confucian noble? ”

The emperor let out a long sigh, "I know it, although the Confucian nobles are caring, they are a little willful, and they always feel that everyone is targeting them, and her temperament is not a day or two." ”

"But did Mr. Chen do something wrong?"

As soon as the queen's words fell, the Confucian nobleman walked in from behind, and the eunuch shouted, "The Confucian nobleman has arrived." ”

As soon as the Confucian nobleman came in, he snorted coldly, "Queen Mother, you defend General Secretary Chen like this, but are there any concubines among you who don't know?" When the queen heard this, she turned her head violently, if her eyes could kill, she must have died countless times and been cut by a thousand knives.

"Queen Mother, the concubine is because of the quantity of Shu brocade and he fell to him, but not because of the quality, the concubine knows, this Shu brocade is a tribute from Shu State, naturally I know, the quality is not something we can decide, but every year there are more than 20 Shu brocades, and now there are only two, isn't it obvious that he has taken any benefits?"

The queen slowly got up under the support of Qi Er, "Confucian nobleman, if I were General Secretary Chen, I guess I wouldn't be stupid to such a point, even if I want to take any benefits, I won't make such a big deficit, all the accounts of the Shang Division Bureau are clear, it is clear, how many horses were paid tribute by the Shu Kingdom, and how many horses were distributed to the harem concubines, it is all clear, if you say that General Secretary Chen took the benefits, can there be evidence?" ”

The emperor couldn't listen to it anymore, so he took the case and said, "The two of you are arguing here early in the morning, but do you take me in your eyes?" I will find out about the matter of Shu Jin, and you will all go back to the palace separately. ”

"Your Majesty." The queen wanted to say something, but the emperor choked back, "Queen, you only need to take care of the harem affairs now." ”

Everyone knows that the emperor is suspicious, and the words of the Confucian nobleman just now touched his deepest bottom line, he always suspected that the harem people and the guards, and the guards, and the imperial doctor had an affair, as soon as these words came out, whatever the queen said would be considered to have something unspeakable with the chief secretary Chen. The Confucian nobleman said this wisely, as if there was no trace at all.

When the queen returned to the palace, the more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she became, and she was willing to go up the mountain to pray for blessings that day. The emperor also agreed without thinking about it.

In this way, the queen didn't know whether she was demoted, or went up the mountain to pray for blessings.

Jiu Yu heard the news, and always felt that this matter was not so simple, the queen was so good, why did she take the ten princes up the mountain to pray for blessings, this road was dangerous, how could the emperor agree.

The queen took the ten princes and embarked on this road of blessing, there was always something to do on the mountainside, there was no complaint, they encountered an ambush, they didn't have to think about it, all this was done by Confucian nobles, the queen has always had no dispute, but it ended up like this.

Fortunately, Jiuyu and Su Zisheng arrived in time, "Queen Mother, you are frightened." ”

"It's okay, why are you here?"

Jiuyu sighed, "I know, there must be something wrong with going up the mountain to pray for blessings, it's not so simple, I just want to protect you." ”

I don't know why, Jiuyu always felt as if there were a pair of eyes staring at them in the distance, I don't know if it was a woman's intuition or something else, he always felt that there would be other things on this road.

It wasn't until that moment that Jiuyu really saw the person hiding behind the tree clearly, and she put down the stone hanging in her heart, and Jiuyu quietly walked behind her, "Why are you here?" ”

"Sure enough, you found out."

"I said you were dead and you can't see the Ten Princes again."

"I know, I just heard the news and wanted to escort them all the way to the Imperial Temple."

"Really?"

"I don't want to see my son, but Concubine De is dead."

Hiding behind the tree and always following is the biological mother of the tenth prince, the former De Guifei, and now Lin Qianyue. Jiuyu sat on the ground with her, "Tell me, how did you get to the stockade?" ”

"It's a long story, Heiyun Village, it's really a coincidence, I didn't know what I could do after I left Murong Mansion, at that time I thought about whether I would become a monk or settle down, so I planned to go to the nunnery, and on the way there, I met the big boss before Heiyun Village, who was chased and killed, and was seriously injured. Our Lin family has always only produced military generals, so I have also practiced martial arts since I was a child, although I am not as good as you, but I also have some ability. After I saved the big boss, I followed him into the village, and later, the big boss didn't mind if I was good to me, and I married and had children, so I became his wife of the village, and since that day, we have been tied together. ”

"So, you're having a good time now?"

"How to say it, it's completely different from before, if I had to choose, I would definitely choose to be in the stockade, because it's really comfortable there, and there is everything, nothing is lacking, everyone is for food and clothing, everyone is for life, and no one will plan a whole big conspiracy for a little profit. I enjoyed it and loved it. However, after all, I am the person who has lived in the palace, and there are traces of my existence there, especially Yu'er, I really think about him every day. ”

"Is that ...... We can let him see you, I don't think the queen will mind, she must want you to be alive. ”

Qianyue smiled, "I think they will be better off if they don't see me, I can see that Concubine Jing is very good to Yu'er, so I can rest assured, but at the same time, because of their identity, I am very worried, I can't protect them in the palace, but outside the palace, I definitely don't allow them to have any mistakes, if it wasn't for you and the prince to arrive in time today, I think I would have been exposed." ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard a voice behind me, gentle, elegant, like a pool of clear water, this voice was soft and clean, "If Yu'er knew that you were still alive, you would be much happier than now." ”

Jiuyu and Asatsuki turned around, and standing behind them was the queen who was still asleep just now.

"The Queen." Jiuyu got up slowly, and Asakitsuki also smiled slightly and got up slowly, "Long time no see." ”

"Farewell that day, how is the old man? The queen's tears welled up in her eyes, and she saw that the familiar face in front of her seemed to be a little more haggard than before, and she had crawled out of the pile of dead people, and it must have been a thrilling thing to be able to stand here well.

"Thank you for remembering, I'm all right, and I hope you are all right."

"You want to see Bel."

"No, I've seen it today, and I know that you are not in danger and there is someone to protect me, so I am relieved, it's just that there are ghosts in the palace, and I am still waiting for you to go to the demons and eliminate the demons.

The queen sighed slightly, looked back, looked at Yu'er who was discussing knowledge with King Changping over there, and couldn't help but smile slightly, "How could I not know, it's just that I have to leave for a while now, the Confucian nobleman is pregnant, I'm really afraid that it will affect myself, I don't care, it's just that Yu'er is afraid that it will become a thorn in their side, now I don't care what the Confucian nobleman wants to do, I only know that she must not hurt our Yu'er." ”

Asatsuki pounced and knelt on the ground, "Great kindness, toothless and unforgettable." ”

"What are you doing, you were a concubine, under one person, above ten thousand, a concubine admired by everyone, how can you kneel to me at will, if you kneel, I will kneel to you, Ji'er is not only your child now, he is also my child, I don't allow anyone to do anything to him. I ask you to rest assured that she will ascend to the throne. ”

"It doesn't matter if you ascend the throne or not, I just want you all to be well."

"Concubine De, just wait and see, we will go back sooner or later, and the moment we go back, I won't be like this, let others slaughter me."

Jiuyu saw the queen's determination, and also saw the firmness in her eyes, she was determined to compete with the Confucian nobles, Jiuyu shook her head, she knew that the gentle and humble Concubine Jing in the past no longer existed.

The Confucian nobles want to harm people, and now their thoughts are shattered, but I don't know what method she will use to deal with the queen and the prince who are far away in the imperial temple.

Jiuyu and the queen returned to the carriage, and Su Zisheng turned around, "Why are your eyes red?" ”

The tenth prince also came over: "What's wrong with the queen mother?" But what's the sadness? Did you come out of the palace and not fit in? It's okay, there's a child. ”

Seeing that the tenth prince was so sensible, Jiu Yu couldn't help but reddened his eyes again, Su Zisheng took Jiu Yu's hand and walked aside, "What's wrong?" ”

"If our children were still alive...... Wouldn't you be so sensible? Jiuyu thought of her unborn child and couldn't help choking. Su Zisheng didn't know how to comfort her, but gently held her in his arms, "Believe me, he must be doing well now, very well." ”
