"Niangniang, there is news from Lord Lifeng, saying that the emperor has decided to let Niangniang go to guard the spirit of the prince." Xingyao said.

Yu Qianling snorted, her eyes full of helplessness: "This is what the prince meant, right?" ”

"Lord Lifeng said that the emperor originally planned to let you be martyred. It was Gonggong Gao who persuaded the emperor to invite Qin Tianjian. The prince bought off Qin Tianjian. Xingyao said.

"Your Majesty, this is an old fool, right? The prince's funeral has passed, and there is still any mention of martyrdom. However, it is also possible. So much has happened since I came. It is impossible for the emperor not to worry. By the way, in the future, don't call me Niangniang again. Since the emperor has not abolished my name as the county lord, then you should still call me the county lord. Yu Qianling said.

Yu Qianling stood up and walked into the courtyard.

"It's the middle of winter. A whole year has passed. This year is actually not a long time. However, I was tormented every day, and my days were like years. However, I still have to pretend to be calm and light. Now, I have finally settled my grievances with here.

A few days later.

Sakura and Xingyao were busy cleaning the house, and Yu Qianling went out alone to take a look.

It's uninhabited, it's very desolate. Except for a few rooms, there is the imperial tomb.

The huge imperial mausoleum often loses sight of people. Occasionally, you can see the guards guarding the tomb outside the imperial tomb, as well as the eunuchs in charge of cleaning the imperial tomb.

Sakura walked out of the house.

"County Lord, this house is quite spacious, but it is too simple. It's the Imperial Mausoleum over there, it's weird and scary! After Ying Hong asked, she subconsciously looked in the direction of the imperial mausoleum.

"How good, pure." Yu Qianling said.

An elderly eunuch hurriedly walked over and saluted Yu Qianling.

"The servant greets the princess."

Yu Qianling smiled slightly: "Presumably, the father-in-law is the eunuch Liu Gonggong, the chief administrator of the imperial tomb." ”

"Slaves are exactly. Niangniang, this imperial tomb is not as simple as the palace, living in a simple place, eating coarse tea and light rice. Concubine Zhao Niangniang came to this imperial mausoleum yesterday and asked the slaves to take more care of Niangniang. It's just Niangniang, this imperial mausoleum is no better than the palace, and those who lack food and clothing are treated more by Niangniang. Gonggong Liu said with a smile.

"Don't worry, Grandpa Liu. I'm here to guard the mausoleum, not to play. I'm free in my mind and don't complain about anything. Yu Qianling said.

Obsidian and Twilight lead the horses.

From afar, Bai Yao looked at Yu Qianling standing in this desolation, which was particularly dazzling. He couldn't help but stop.

"Twilight, you said that the county lord is always dressed in white. What would she look like if she wore a red dress? ”

Mo Yu looked at Bai Yao and was surprised to find that Bai Yao's gaze was extremely immersed and gentle at this time.

"What do you think! Let's go, tie the horse up. Motwi said.

The wind blows, bringing a biting chill.

Cloud King's Mansion.

Mo Hanyun looked at the stove on the ground with a distracted look. As soon as Yu Qianling left, his heart was empty. I always feel like my heart is poured into the north wind, cool and swishing.

Mo Hanyun had already asked Concubine Zhao to bring a message to the eunuch in charge of the imperial tomb, and also sent some things. However, he still couldn't rest assured.

"No, this king wants to go and see!" After speaking, Mo Hanyun stood up and walked out.

Mo Hanyun rode a horse, without stopping all the way, and rushed to the imperial tomb.

***

In winter, the mountains and the ground are gray. Except for the pines and cypresses, there is not a trace of greenery. The north wind blew, bringing a biting chill. They were noisy, slapping their faces. They try to get into the collar and into the cuffs, so that people can more deeply appreciate what it means to be cold and bone-blowing.

It's almost the moon, and even if the sky is clear and the sun is very good, I don't want to stay outside for too long. Yu Qianling looked at the desolate scene, and felt a little lost in his heart. It's not clear if it's for this desolation, or for something else.

"County Lord, let's get inside." Xingyao shouted.

Yu Qianling sighed and walked towards the house, but heard the sound of horses' hooves. She stopped, looked back, and in the distance, someone rode up.

Somehow, Yu Qianling suddenly felt a hint of surprise in his heart.

It's Mo Hanyun! The loss in Yu Qianling's heart disappeared in an instant.

"County Lord."

Mo Hanyun rode his horse and stopped in front of Yu Qianling. The pimple between his eyebrows was instantly smoothed, and a slight smile couldn't hide the joy in his heart.

Mo Hanyun got off the horse.

"Lord Wang, why are you here?" Yu Qianling asked with a smile.

"Let's go, let's talk in the house, it's too cold."

Mo Hanyun said something, and subconsciously took Yu Qianling's hand.

Yu Qianling suddenly felt restless in her heart, and her face, which was cold and cold just now, suddenly became hot. She broke free of Mo Hanyun's hand and smiled awkwardly.

At this moment, two maids came over and hid to the side. When they heard that Princess Xiang had moved to guard the mausoleum, they were curious and wanted to see what the rumored woman looked like.

"Who's that?" A maid looked at Mo Hanyun curiously and asked in a low voice.

The other shook his head and said, "It seems that he is the son of a rich family." ”

"Ahem."

A familiar voice suddenly pierced behind him. The two maids looked back and saw that it was Father-in-law Liu.

"Look at what! Who doesn't have a few friends these days? That person is Lord Yun. What a rich man's son-in-law! Have you read it? ”

The two maids shook their heads.

Gonggong Liu's face immediately sank.

The two maids nodded hurriedly, smeared oil on the soles of their feet, and were about to slip away, but they heard Gonggong Liu say: "Today's matter, you are not allowed to chew the root of your tongue." Otherwise, you don't know how you died! ”

"Yes, Grandpa Liu!"

The two maids hurried away.

Gonggong Liu watched Mo Hanyun and Yu Qianling enter the house, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.

Mo Hanyun walked into the house and saw that Yinghong, Xingyao, Bai Yao, and Mo Yu were all there. They hurriedly saluted him.

Mo Hanyun waved his hand and said, "Don't be polite, this king is just idle and has nothing to do, come and have a look." After all, it's too hard here, especially in winter. ”

"Sakura, look at the tea." Yu Qianling said.

"Yes, County Lord." Sakura walked out.

"Slaves and maids also go." Xingyao walked out after Sakura.

Bai Yao glanced at Mo Yu and said, "My subordinates and Mo Yu went to see the prince's horse." ”

After saying that, Bai Yao walked out. Twilight followed.

Mo Hanyun couldn't suppress the thoughts in his heart anymore, he slammed it and pulled Yu Qianling into his arms.

The ghost made the god worse, and Yu Qianling did not struggle. She snuggled in Mo Hanyun's arms, and for the first time in a year, she felt so down-to-earth.

Mo Hanyun took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it to Yu Qianling.

"County Lord, do you remember this?" Mo Hanyun asked.

Yu Qianling took the handkerchief, and when she saw the familiar pattern, the door of memory suddenly opened, and the past came to mind.

Yu Qianling was slightly surprised.

"It turns out that the boy who cried that day was the prince."

"Actually, a few years ago, you came to Daning and kissed. This king wanted to thank you. But when I saw you from afar, I fell in love at first sight. However, the king missed it. Mo Hanyun said with a look on his face.

The smile on Yu Qianling's face disappeared. She pushed Mo Hanyun away and sat down.

"Lord Wang, if you miss it, you miss it. Now I am in this imperial mausoleum, it is the emperor's will. Don't come in the future, let others see it, and you have to tell right and wrong again. I am immortal, so I am naturally not afraid, but if it affects the prince, it will be my fault. Yu Qianling's face showed helplessness.

"But, what you just did shows that you also have me in your heart, doesn't it?" Mo Hanyun sat beside Yu Qianling, trying to pull her hand, but she avoided her.

Yu Qianling didn't look at Mo Hanyun, her eyes were a little evasive: "Lord Wang, I only have revenge in my heart." Now that Mo Zixiang is dead, I should also go back to the clouds to avenge my parents and clansmen! ”

Yu Qianling paused, raised his head, and looked at Mo Hanyun: "The prince once promised to help me avenge this blood sea of hatred, maybe he will do what he says?" ”

Mo Hanyun nodded: "Since this king can say it, he will definitely do it." But the lord of the county, King Rongben wants to find a way. ”

Yu Qianling smiled coldly and said, "Lord Wang, how are you going to help me?" Rely on the guards around you, or the dead soldiers in your palace, or the soldiers in the Yunwang Mansion? Or are you from the Valley of Ten Thousand Medicines? ”

"Don't worry, the Medicine King is recruiting troops and training secretly." Mo Hanyun said.

Yu Qianling shook his head: "Lord Wang, when will it take to recruit troops and horses to compete with the Northern War clan?" Lord, don't you understand? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is no longer there, and now there is no owner in the East Palace. ”

Mo Hanyun understood what Yu Qianling meant: "Do you want this king to take the heir?" ”

Yu Qianling nodded slightly.

"Okay", Mo Hanyun said without hesitation, "As long as this king ascends the throne, let Daning's army step on the clouds and help you take revenge." In this way, you can also stay with this king openly. ”

Hearing Mo Hanyun's words, Yu Qianling's heart swelled with warmth. Looking at his resolute gaze, she was willing to believe in his sincerity.

Outside the door, Bai Yao was eavesdropping on his stomach through the crack in the door.

Mo Yu looked impatient, stabbed Bai Yao with the hilt of his sword, and said in a low voice: "Didn't you say that you helped the prince watch the horse?" What's the deal with you buying here to eavesdrop? This is not a gentleman's doing. ”

Bai Yao straightened up, turned his head and glared at Mo Yu, and said angrily: "I'm not a gentleman in the first place!" ”

Mo Wei shook his head helplessly, didn't say anything more, and walked to take the prince's horse and walk towards the stable.

Bai Yao felt a little unhappy in his heart. This kind of unhappiness started from the first sight of Mo Hanyun just now.

"Lord Wang, let's go. If you don't leave, you won't be able to return to the imperial capital before the city gate is closed. Yu Qianling stood up.

Mo Hanyun looked outside, then turned back to look at Yu Qianling, reluctant to give up: "Qianling, can this king call you that?" ”

Yu Qianling looked at his eager gaze and nodded. She felt her face was very hot.

Mo Hanyun held Yu Qianling's hand: "Don't worry, this king must be the crown prince for you." ”

It was the first time that Mo Hanyun wanted to be the prince like this.
