Chapter 165 Quid pro quo
In Ningxian Palace, the dim light stretched the two figures, although the two were mother and son connected by blood, but the atmosphere at this time was a little silent and depressed.
For Mo Yiyan's penetrating eyes, Wei Chisheng didn't seem to see it, the corners of his mouth kept a warm smile, and he spoke again: "Erchen will help his mother first and then get up, the queen mother's body is delicate, don't get caught in the wind and cold again, you should take care of your body!" ”
After finishing speaking, Yu Chisheng stretched out his hand and wanted to help Mo Yiyan up.
Who knows, at this moment, Mo Yiyan, who had not spoken, suddenly raised her hand, used all her strength, pushed Yu Chisheng to it, and asked in a cold voice: "Yu Chisheng, you are really a good son brought up by my Mo Yiyan himself, for so many years, I have been deliberately seeking imperial power and political achievements for you, but what about you?" Knowing that it was a conspiracy, you came to persuade me to admit my mistake to your father, don't tell me that you don't know what it means to admit your mistake? Is that how you repay your mother? Sure enough, the bloodline of the royal family has the same wolf nature, which really impresses the queen mother! ”
In the face of Mo Yiyan's accusation, a touch of gloom flashed in Wei Chisheng's eyes, but it was fleeting, he stood up by himself, cleaned the dust off his body, and said coldly: "Wolf nature? Wasn't the wolf nature of the sons and daughters cultivated by the queen mother? Erchen admitted that for so many years, his mother has worked hard to train Erchen to become today's prince, seeking imperial power and political achievements, but has the queen mother ever asked Erchen whether this kind of life is what Erchen wants? ”
"The dignified prince of the Southern Qin Kingdom, the future prince, a collection of thousands of honors and favors, you don't want such an identity, so what do you want? Bengong sees that you are fainted by Ye Wanruo's confused mind! If I knew this, I shouldn't have been soft on her at the beginning, and now I won't turn you into such a ghost! Over the years, when have you spoken like this to your mother? A woman, do you know what is important to you? In the future, you will face the people of the Southern Qin Kingdom, ruling the entire country, how can you talk about the private feelings of your children? What a mess! ”
Wei Chisheng's words have already caused Mo Yiyan to be seriously dissatisfied, accusing Wei Chisheng word by word, and at the same time putting all the responsibility on Ye Wanruo.
Over the years, she has put all her energy on Wei Chisheng, although Wei Chisheng is not the most suitable person for the great cause of succession, and he is not smart, and he does not even have his own uniqueness.
But Yu Chisheng was her only son, and she had to choose because she had no choice, and she had to bet all her bets on Yu Chisheng, so she didn't allow herself to make any mistakes with Yu Chisheng.
When Ye Wanruo was mentioned, Mo Yiyan was not the only one who also changed her face, even Yu Chisheng's face suddenly became cold, and after Mo Yiyan's words fell, Yu Chisheng said in a deep voice: "In this world, I am bound to win, and Wanruo, I will not give it to others!" ”
Hearing the resoluteness in Yu Chisheng's tone, even Mo Yiyan's eyes flashed with surprise, in her impression of Wei Chisheng, she would only say yes obediently, but I don't know when he started, he also learned to deny her decision and had the ability to think independently, this feeling made Mo Yiyan's heart rise a bad premonition.
I saw Yu Chisheng get up and walk to the dresser and sit down, play with the jade comb on it, and calmly said again: "Since I was a child, the queen mother did not allow me to play with other princes, and the queen told me that we are not brothers, but future enemies. In addition to learning poetry, calligraphy, painting and printing, the Four Books and the Five Classics, and the way of governing the country with Taifu every day in my childhood, I also had to learn the twists and turns that my mother stole back from my father. But I was also a child at that time, and I would envy the games made by other princes outside, and I would also envy the care of other concubines for the princes. And even if I am not smart, I have to pretend to be a young man, has the queen mother ever experienced my bitterness?
When I grew up, when I reached the age of marrying a wife, my mother began to choose young ladies from various famous families for me, and I really couldn't be interested in seeing them all vulgar and pretentious. But the queen mother told me at this time that the children's private affairs are just a passing moment, and the important thing is that the power in the woman's family can become an assistant to me to the throne.
The trajectory of my life and the path of my struggle for imperial power were all chosen for me by the queen mother, and I lived like a puppet, without independent thoughts, completely dependent on the queen mother. I subconsciously regard this as the life I want, the high throne as my yearning, there is nothing else in my life, only competition, even if it costs anything.
But it wasn't until Wanruo lost her memory that I tried my best to get close to her, trying to win the power of the princess's mansion behind her, that I realized that there was something in this world that I thought of more than the throne, and that was her true heart.
But I don't know why, whatever the sons want, the queen mother is denying. The queen mother wanted Wanruo's life again and again, putting her in danger, but did the queen mother ever think that at the same time, it hurt the heart of the son, every time Wanruo was injured, the pain in the heart of the son was never better than half of her. And does the queen mother really care about these?
It is not so much that this struggle for the throne is for the sons and daughters, but for the queen mother herself. Because this is not the life that Erchen wants at all! ”
In the end, I wonder if it's to vent years of dissatisfaction? Still thinking of the pain in the past, Yu Chisheng actually broke the jade comb in his hand with his bare hands.
In the blink of an eye, the jade comb in his hand was broken and thrown to the ground in disgust by Yu Chisheng, no longer looking at it.
Wei Chisheng's words hit Mo Yiyan's heart word by word, and he suddenly asked clearly: "Hehe, for myself?" Could it be that the last person to ascend to the throne is me Mo Yiyan? Do you think I don't want to be a loving mother? Have you ever known the dilemma of the queen mother? Do you understand the truth of playthings? How much do you know about your mother's good intentions? Looking at it, what prince can compare with you? Isn't that the result of all that effort?
It's you, it really chilled the queen mother's heart, today's events, you know that the queen mother was wronged, but you look at it coldly. Do you want to wait for your mother to be depressed and amnesia, so that you can fly with Ye Wanruo, that slut? ”
"No, I'm here to negotiate terms with the queen mother!"
Although Mo Yiyan's tone was mixed with great helplessness and grievance, she couldn't incite any emotions of Wei Chisheng, and even her face was not shocked, and she spit out this purpose by herself.
"Hehehe, my Sheng Er has really grown up and grown up, and she actually talked about the conditions with the queen mother! The queen mother wants to hear what you want to do. ”
The corners of Mo Yiyan's mouth hooked up a self-deprecating smile, thinking that she was strategizing, but she never thought that it was her most beloved son who was the first to lose control, this reality was too ironic.
But it also made Mo Yiyan's heart a little more confused, I don't know what Yu Chisheng wants to do?
"The grievances suffered by the queen mother today, the sons can avenge the grievances of the queen mother, clear the suspicion, let the queen mother continue to be in charge of the phoenix seal treasure book, and reshape the demeanor of the lord of the harem. The only request of the son is to ask the mother to promise the son that he will not hurt Wanruo again, and agree that after the son succeeds to the throne, Wanruo will be the queen. In exchange for this condition, I don't know if the queen mother can agree? ”
Wei Chisheng said slowly, although his tone was relaxed, his eyes were locked on Mo Yiyan's face.
No matter how arrogant Mo Yiyan is, she doesn't dare to poison Hui Guiren and Wanruo on such an important occasion today, this matter is obviously a conspiracy against Mo Yiyan.
Seeing the hidden meaning of this, Yu Chisheng also made a bold decision in his heart at the same time, wanting to propose an exchange with Mo Yiyan.
Although he had made up his mind in his heart, Wei Chisheng knew Mo Yiyan's methods too well, and he was already apprehensive in his heart.
It's just that Wei Chisheng was negligent, does Mo Yiyan in front of her have any other options besides choosing to cooperate with her? Grounded in this Ningxian Palace, apart from Prince Sheng, who else can easily enter this door? And who can rely on?
At this time, Mo Yiyan's lowered eyelids hid her yin owl's eyes, and the killing intent she tried to hide was about to make her lose her mind, her fists clenched involuntarily, although she was unwilling, she also knew that she had to bow to reality.
The room fell silent, and the two of them had their own ghosts and plans.
Suddenly, I saw Mo Yiyan standing up with a smile, turned to sit on the edge of the bed, and said softly: "Since Sheng Er is so infatuated with Wanruo, it is not easy for the queen mother to stop it, if she gets the help of the princess's mansion because of this, it can be regarded as the best of both worlds, and the queen mother has no reason to stop it." It's just a matter of the queen mother...."
After getting Mo Yiyan's promise, Wei Chisheng also stood up, took Mo Yiyan's words, and said softly: "Today's matter, the father is in a state of anger at this time, and when the limelight of this matter passes, the sons and daughters have their own ways to clear all obstacles for the queen mother outside, and I hope that the queen mother can keep her promise!" ”
Saying that, Yu Chisheng was no longer as rude as before, standing in front of Mo Yiyan, clasping his hands in front of his chest, and bowing to Mo Yiyan.
"That's nature!"
Mo Yiyan smiled and nodded in response.
"The minister will retire first, and ask the queen mother to pay attention to the phoenix body, and the son will implement this matter as soon as possible! If the queen mother needs anything, ask Mama Gui to place an acacia flower in front of the window, and the son will send someone to come! ”
"Sheng Er has a heart, it's just that the noble man is scheming, Sheng Er should be more careful, don't fall into the trap of the other party!"
Mo Yiyan admonished uneasily, her tone was full of love.
"Sheng Er remembers the teachings of the queen mother and does not dare to underestimate the enemy! That Sheng Er retired first, and the queen mother should rest early! ”
After finishing speaking, Yu Chisheng bowed to Mo Yiyan again, and turned around and walked towards the door without stopping.
Until Wei Chisheng's tall figure disappeared in the room, and she was left alone in the room again, the softness in Mo Yiyan's eyes suddenly disappeared without a trace, and she walked to the dresser and scattered all the things on it to the ground to vent her inner dissatisfaction.
"Mother.... ...."
Mama Gui, who rushed to the scene when she heard the sound, looked at the mess in this place, and didn't know where Mo Yiyan's hands touched, and the red blood stains fell to the ground drop by drop, rendering the ground red.
It is said that ten fingers are connected to the heart, but Mo Yiyan can't feel the slightest pain in this matter, and she feels like something is blocked in her heart, and there is a kind of pain that she can't speak.
Such a scene made Mama Gui's eyes flash with a touch of distress, and she quickly rushed towards Mo Yiyan: "Niangniang, why do you punish yourself so much?" Fortunately, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has promised to clear his innocence for his mother, don't hurt herself like this, the old slave feels distressed! ”
"Don't talk to Hongu about that rebel! For the sake of a woman, he actually watched the palace suffer miserably and was indifferent, and the palace did not have his unfilial son! Ignoring the intentions of this palace, even if the qualifications are mediocre, it is stupid, a natural waste material!
Ye Wanruo, today I Mo Yiyan swear that I will not share the sky with you, this palace wants to see what kind of fox tricks you can do, so that Yu Chi Sheng and Yu Chi Jingyao are anxious for you? What if you become queen in the future? This palace wants your life, isn't it a matter of getting your hands on it? When the time comes, see how arrogant you are! ”
Three thousand strands of hair hung down on both sides of his forehead, and his hideous appearance made people shudder, the injury caused by Yu Chisheng made Mo Yiyan no longer care about the injury on his hand, and hammered heavily on the dresser, and the ruthlessness in his eyes seemed to be eager to devour Ye Wanruo now.
