Ji Yanran shook her head: "That's all your speculation and arrangement, in the final analysis, you still have to hold everyone in the palm of your hand, as long as they are controlled, you will not hesitate to do it to them, even Chang Ning, who has been with you for many years and is dedicated to treating your illness." But since then, no one will treat you so sincerely. ”

The Queen Mother laughed: "You are not the same, inciting so many people to your use, if you don't have them, you can stand here with dignity?" This is originally a place where the weak eat the strong, I have been in the palace for many years, and my only heir was also killed, can anyone help me at that time? Even my mother's family made me settle down, and the emperor promised to make me the queen, but in the end, I chose another woman for a while.

In the end, nothing is reliable, only the power in your own hands is the most real, whether you win or lose, it is no one else, I will teach these hard work to Chang Ning, but Chang Ning can only see the gains and losses in front of him, if it is not for the mourning family for the sake of her many years of companionship, maybe it will push her to marry the stupid prince. ”

The Queen Mother slowly straightened her body, although she was a little embarrassed, but the nobility and majesty on her body were still there, but this appearance made the last respect in Ji Yanran's eyes disappear.

Ji Yanran said: "It's not that you don't want to, but you can't do it, you're right, there is only success or failure in your heart." ”

"Now you lose, and the one who loses loses everything."

Ji Yanran instructed Song Qi: "Send the Queen Mother to Cining Palace." ”

Song Qi responded.

The Queen Mother raised her head with an awe-inspiring expression.

Ji Yanran continued: "No one is allowed to follow. ”

Ji Yanran and the Queen Mother looked at each other: "This is how to cater to your state of mind." ”

The Queen Mother was slightly moved.

After the Cining Palace was cleaned up, the inside seemed even more empty, and only one chair was left in the entire hall, and the ebony wood was polished, reflecting the face of the Queen Mother.

The palace people all stood in the courtyard.

I only heard Ji Yanran say: "The slaves and maids sent in by the Lin family can return home with Shaoying." ”

Several palace people looked at each other and slowly walked out of the crowd.

"The slaves and maids who are assigned to Cining Palace can also choose to leave."

There was another sound of footsteps.

Ji Yanran slowly looked at the rest of the people.

"No matter whose eyeliner you are, you can stand up now and be blameless."

A few more people took a few steps forward with their heads bowed.

There were very few people left in the courtyard.

Ji Yanran continued: "Those who are willing to accompany the Queen Mother can stay." ”

Several people retreated one after another without hesitation, and in the end, no one was willing to stand in the courtyard again, and no one was willing to give the Queen Mother a ride.

Whether it is the Lin family or these people, they have already seen the true face of the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother grabbed the handkerchief in her hand.

Ji Yanran turned her head and looked at the Queen Mother from afar: "Seal the Cining Palace and don't allow anyone to enter or leave." ”

This time, the Queen Mother finally couldn't hide her panic, and couldn't help but say: "You are really not Chang Ning?" ”

Ji Yanran smiled silently.

Those who lose have no right to know the truth.

The door of Cining Palace was slowly closed, this was the only time in so many years that the Wu Dynasty locked the Queen Mother in it to fend for herself, and only this palace and the honor of the Queen Mother were buried for her.

"Wait," the Queen Mother finally stood up, "We can talk, the emperor has not yet been whereabouts, you don't know many things in the palace, do you ...... the secret that Chang Ning checked back then?"

Her voice stopped abruptly, as the last rays of sunlight had been blocked out by the thick door panels.

"Bang bang." Long iron nails nailed the gate to the ground.

The Queen Mother's cold sweat broke out from her forehead, and a feeling of fear spread all over her body, as if something was slowly emanating from the gloomy hall.

It's a rotten smell.

In the past, she never thought that there were so many queen mothers living here, and many people died here, and those eyes seemed to be looking at her, waiting to drag her into the abyss.

When the palace is prosperous, it is so beautiful, and there is only boundless fear when it is cold.

"Ji Yanran, you really don't want to know...... Are those secrets? ”

The Queen Mother roared with all her strength.

Ji Yanran didn't speak.

After a while, I only heard a crisp voice say: "The Queen Mother has passed away." ”

The hairs on the Queen Mother's body stood on end.

Eventually, the sound was no longer there, and the footsteps faded away, and with the sound of the palace door closing, everything around became so quiet.

The Queen Mother was sore and slumped, and slowly slid off the chair.

"Giggle."

It was as if someone was laughing, but when you looked closely, there was no sound.

The Queen Mother finally couldn't help but grope for the door.

The gorgeous robe dragged on the ground, and the phoenix hairpin on his head also fell off.

There was the queen mother's big seal and treasure book on the long table at the door, but now it was useless for her.

The sky was getting darker and darker, and those who were killed by her began to appear in the Queen Mother's mind, and the bloodless faces were floating in front of her eyes, smiling desperately at her.

The Queen Mother trembled, and finally fell to the ground sweating profusely.

……

Ji Yanran walked out of Cining Palace and looked at Lin Shaoying, who was waiting not far away.

Lin Shaoying had already rubbed her eyes, and when she saw the door of Cining Palace being closed, she couldn't help but say, "Queen Mother...... Already...... Already ......"

Ji Yanran shook her head: "No, it's just that she can't get out." ”

Decades ago, the Queen Mother had already died inside, and when she killed Chang Ning, she didn't kill herself.

Lin Shaoying said: "I really didn't expect that back then...... My sister died at the hands of the Queen Mother. ”

Who can believe it, maybe except for Li Yue who can get a glimpse of the truth, everyone else is kept in the dark.

"What's next?" Lin Shaoying's heart was in turmoil, but fortunately she had her eldest sister by her side.

Ji Yanran said: "Go to the city gate to rescue the emperor." ”

Lin Shaoying was surprised: "It's hard for the eldest sister to take the emperor back to the palace." ”

"Then what's the matter," Ji Yanran paused slightly, "But even if the emperor returns to the palace, I'm afraid he won't be able to deal with court affairs, because he was killed by King Jing's father and son." ”

After this incident, someone will bear the emperor's death, and Li Yue can ascend the throne logically.

Lin Shaoying's eyes gradually lit up: "Eldest sister, I understand." ”

"Go," Ji Yanran said, "Soon there will be courtiers in the palace asking to see them, so that they can see the emperor." ”

As long as the emperor can't speak, he can let the old minister come to visit.

Soon the news of the king's father and son and the emperor came.

The forbidden army in Beijing finally put down this rebellion, but unfortunately the emperor was injured and had passed out, the prince of King Jing was beheaded by King Jing, and the other heirs of King Jing died, and the injuries were tragic, and King Jing's reinforcements never arrived, and they seemed to disappear out of thin air.

Ji Yanran knew that those people had become Li Yue's prisoners of war.

Seeing the immortal emperor, the old ministers wiped their tears and said: "Let's welcome the king of Chu back, the country cannot be without a king for a day, and someone must deal with government affairs." ”

After these people discussed, they thought of begging Ji Yanran, and Ji Yanran was soon surrounded by various requests.

"The King of Chu and General Li Yong are fighting abroad for the sake of the Wu Dynasty, which is exactly how they serve the country, and with them one day, we can rest assured."

Speaking of this, Ji Yanran raised her head, with a look of honor on her face, this is what they should do, and they don't know what happened to Ayong now.

"Third grandmother, the third master has news back."

Rong's mother's voice sounded, and Ji Yanran's heart jumped suddenly: "How is he?" ”
