Chapter Ninety-Eight: It's Time for Me to Protect You

The dim and dancing candle flame reflected Zhao Xueyan's side face, and unconsciously, this young man was no longer the child who was wronged and cried and shouted to find Emperor Jiahe's comment, at this moment his eyes were full of boundless seriousness and melancholy, staring at Bo Yan without blinking. Flash Dance.

"Queen Mother, I once asked you what is the way of the emperor, and you answered me, but to this day I have not completely understood, Mr. said that the people should live and work in peace and contentment, and the book said that they should live and work in peace and contentment, but what is the peace and contentment of the country? What is Guotai Min'an? I have never left the capital since I was born, I have never seen the drought and flood mentioned in the book, and I don't know what kind of tragic situation it is to be displaced and floating corpses everywhere, I can't deeply understand this, how can I understand the suffering of the people, I have no concept of these in my heart. Zhao Xueyan was distressed.

Bo Yan raised his eyebrows, not expecting him to say such a thing with himself.

"Queen Mother...... Am I really fit to be an emperor? Even if it is possible now, what about the future? I have been well protected by you, I have not seen the slightest hardship in this world, I have not come into contact with others, and I don't know what the situation is outside the capital, or outside the Zhao Kingdom, I am afraid that one day I will end up in an arbitrary field, and the saddest thing is that I may not realize my mistakes at all. ”

"Xue Yan ......," Bo Yan sighed softly.

"Queen Mother......" Zhao Xueyan didn't let Bo Yan speak, and continued tremblingly: "I...... I am a little afraid, afraid, like my father, I will slowly become a king who can only rely on you and the Bo family to survive. ”

"You're not like him." Bo Yan said firmly.

Zhao Xueyan shook his head and looked up at Bo Yan: "It's inevitable to be complacent after staying in the greenhouse for a long time, if it weren't for my personal experience, I wouldn't feel pain, Queen Mother, I don't want to be an emperor who only understands politics but has no flesh and blood."

Bo Yan looked at Zhao Xueyan deeply, his eyes were surprised and happy, and he was surprised that such words came out of his mouth; Happily,.

“…… So...... How are you going to do it? Bo Yan stared at Zhao Xue for a long time and asked softly.

The second shopkeeper brought up the prepared refreshments, glanced at the two people who were looking at each other seriously, and retreated quietly and interestedly.

The autumn wind blew, blowing up the long hair of the thin rouge, and also blowing away the dark clouds of the closed moon, and the beautiful moonlight sprinkled down, and put it into Zhao Xueyan's eyes, his eyes were as clear as washing: "Mother...... This emperor, it's good if I don't do it......"

Bo Yan picked up the teacup for a moment, and with a slack of strength in her hand, a bowl of tea was poured all over the table, and she looked at Zhao Xueyan in disbelief, as if she didn't understand what he just said.

Zhao Xueyan didn't dodge, and met Bo Yan's gaze directly: "Mother."

He called her "mother", not "mother", such a warm and simple term.

Bo Yan had to admit that when she heard Zhao Xueyan's words, she was ecstatic in her heart, in fact, from the day of her rebirth, from the moment she knew that she had to repeat the fate of the previous life and marry into the palace, Bo Yan imagined the possibility of breaking free from the heavy shackles of this suit, in the previous life, the identity of the queen mother imprisoned her life, and the same is true in this life, if you don't want to repeat the mistakes of the past, you must have a reason to escape from the palace.

Bo Yan imagined a lot of possibilities, and finally thought of the road of fake death, but this is easy to say, but it is very difficult to do, the queen mother's funeral is a national funeral, and his body is to be carried into the royal mausoleum, which requires a person to cooperate with him inside and out, and deceive everyone. smuggled himself out again, he originally thought of Pei Yao, but now that such a thing has happened, Pei Yao can't count on it, and he has fallen into isolation, besides, now that Zhao Xueyan is still young, how can he not leave him and leave, and once he fakes his death, it means that he has to leave behind his previous identity and past, including his family, every time he thinks that he wants to deceive his parents for his own selfish desires, he is already dead, so that they can experience the pain of the white-haired person sending the black-haired person, Bo Yan is uneasy, and so on, although Bo Yan has this heart, However, this move is still listed as the next policy, and it will not be implemented unless it is absolutely necessary. 35xs

And the blows of some time ago, I can't help but have this heart again, I urgently need to escape from the quagmire of the capital, give myself a breathing room, I have to admit, just like Mr. Ritsuki said, if this goes on for a long time, I am afraid that I will really be exhausted and die for a long time.

And today, Zhao Xueyan's proposal really solves many of his troubles, if Zhao Xueyan abdicates and takes the initiative to resign from the position of emperor, then he can naturally no longer worry about him, and also give himself a fetters to fake his death, he believes that if he stays in the Bo family, the Bo family will give him a good teaching, and with him accompanying his father and mother, he can comfort some of their grief of losing themselves, so it can be said that it is the best of both worlds, and their plans can also be put on the agenda.

"You ......" Bo Yan hesitated, secretly feeling embarrassed by his selfish thoughts, and still didn't say anything after the fierce struggle between heaven and man in his heart, that was the position of the Ninety-Five Supreme, who didn't look forward to it, looking forward to it, if he nodded, it would ruin Zhao Xueyan's good future.

"If you resign from the throne...... It's okay......" Bo Yan closed his eyes, didn't look at Zhao Xueyan, and trembled with his heart, and finally couldn't stop the apology in his heart, and added: "But the country can't be without a king for a day, you better think about it."

In just a few words, it seems that he has exhausted the strength of Bo Yan's life, what are you doing? For the sake of his own freedom and life, he even agreed to let Zhao Xueyan give up the throne! He's just a kid, what can he understand? If he did, he would regret it!

Bo Yan was shocked when he realized this, hurriedly raised his head and looked at Zhao Xueyan in a bit of a panic, and shook his head again and again: "No, no!" I was wrong just now, don't take it to heart......"

Halfway through the words, he was facing Zhao Xueyan's smiling gaze, he smiled very lightly and shallowly, and even a little childish, but also full of joy.

Such a smile made Bo Yan more and more ashamed of himself, and when he thought of what he had just done, Bo Yan blushed to the root of his ears, and he couldn't wait to find a place to get in.

"Mother, after I resign from the throne, you and I can visit the famous mountains and rivers, walk all over the mountains and rivers, I can see the world with my eyes, and I can measure the ...... of Kyushu with my footprints."

Bo Yan's eyes were slightly red, and he lowered his head lower, Zhao Xueyan calculated all this, but there was no existence of him in the future he envisioned, just because, if he was in the same place as Zhao Xueyan. I will always be the identity of the Empress Dowager Zhao, and I am anxious to get rid of all the things that have been imposed on me.

At that time, the mother can also recover her free body, and she will not have to retreat when she encounters a son who is in the way like today...... You can also find a father for me. Zhao Xueyan's voice softened, revealing unprecedented maturity.

Bo Yan was stunned, and looked at Zhao Xueyan with some panic: ...... Say what? What does this mean?

Zhao Xueyan still smiled: "Mother, I want to give way to the protector."

Bo Yan: "!"

Zhao Xueyan: "So, mother, don't leave me, okay......"

……

Zhao Xueyan is a smart child, if he only remembered Bo Yan's words in the past, then after Mr. Lizhu's words, he paid more and more attention to Bo Yan's various behaviors.

Bo Yan's sad face did not show him in his eyes, Bo Yan's struggle and tiredness he saw in his eyes, he secretly sent someone to observe Bo Yan's every move, he vaguely found that Bo Yan's wrong, as if he was planning the aftermath, and began to arrange everything properly, the most straightforward of which is to secretly select the military generals who can be used in the court, and intentionally promote them, Zhao Xueyan understands that Bo Yan is choosing people to guard the country for himself, but now the national situation is stable, and there is no war, although Bo Yan's move is a rainy day, It's a little early to plan for her, so there is only one explanation, that is, Bo Yan is worried that she will not be there in the future, and no one will prepare these things for herself.

Realizing this, Zhao Xueyan fell into an unprecedented panic, earlier Mr. Lizhu said that Bo Yan was exhausted and thought too much, after Pei Yao's incident, Zhao Xueyan was really afraid that Bo Yan couldn't think about it, although he was taken care of at any time, but it was inevitable that he would be careless, Zhao Xueyan never thought that one day Bo Yan would leave him, when the assassination happened that day, he had already experienced the helplessness of losing Bo Yan, which was more sad than death, and he didn't want to experience it again in this life, Looking back on all the things that had happened, Zhao Xueyan only felt deeply sorry, Bo Yan was not his biological mother, but he protected himself more than his biological mother, he didn't know anyone well with the Bo family and Liu Zhao, he listened to Yan Rong's words, fell into the trap, and finally came out to bear Bo Yan for himself and others, she rushed to the front to be her own umbrella in everything, not to let herself suffer the slightest wind and rain, she has taken relying on Bo Yan as a habit, and she selfishly feels that she is strong, she will always be by her side, and she will never fall, but she has forgotten, She is just a sixteen-year-old girl, just because of a will of Emperor Jiahe to enter the palace to accompany her, and even became her own stepmother, to work hard for herself, it can be said that the royal family mistook her life, otherwise with her appearance, there are countless people who hope to protect her for a lifetime, why should she take a life for herself.

After understanding this, Zhao Xue Yanxuan began to think deeply, and finally thought of this way of both worlds, Bo Yan sacrificed so much for himself and protected himself so many times, it was always his turn to protect her.

"The protector has worked for the country for many years, he has the ability to govern the country, and he will definitely be able to govern the Zhao country very well, when the protector is the emperor, you are naturally a princess, although it is my mother, you can also talk about marriage." Zhao Xueyan explained, this is the best way he can think of, it is true that he is indeed a little unstable on this throne, but what really decided to give up is Bo Yan's situation, if he lets himself choose between the throne and Bo Yan, Zhao Xueyan will decisively choose the latter.
