A guide of the Changqing Dynasty, the palace is large, and the road is unimpeded. Yan Rin quickly received this excellent spy who had been lurking in a foreign country for many years.

As early as when Rong Qian was in power, he established a pedestrian department to train all kinds of spies and spread them around the country. An Wuji was thrown to the Qin State by Rong Qian a long time ago, at that time Yan Rin was still a little child, and his identity was not visible, so this time he and Yan Rin were actually the first time they met the monarch.

An Wuji was used to being casual outside, without losing the pride of the ranger, and he did not bow to the saint for the first time, and after a bow, he went straight to the point and reported the news that Yan Rin wanted him to investigate:

"Your Majesty, Concubine Lan did not die of illness, but died of abuse. Since the king of Qin received the letter of state of Chu, he has been restless, drinking and getting drunk every day, and he is angry by killing the palace people. Lan Concubine's body was buried in the imperial mausoleum, and his subordinates could not perform an autopsy, but the minister bribed the eunuch who was responsible for collecting the corpse with a lot of money. ”

Feng Changqing said angrily: "Although Concubine Lan is from a humble background, she is the mother of my Empress Dayan. King Qin did this, where did he put my Dayan? ”

An Wuji shook his head and said, "King Qin was drunk and demented at that time, but he didn't mean to despise my country. He mourned Concubine Lan with an acute illness, and then reported it in an official document, just to give us an explanation. As for what kind of attitude our Dayan is going to use to deal with it, it depends on His Majesty's plan. ”

It's a tricky thing. If the Yan State had the intention of attacking the Qin State, this would be an excellent excuse. However, Yan Rin has not been in power for a long time, and his foundation has not been solidified, so now is not the time to start a big war. Since he didn't want to start a war with Qin, there was no need to mention those who were asked in the letter of state. Can they demand that the concubines buried in the imperial tomb be exhumed and autopsied? There is no evidence of this reproach. King Qin only needed a letter of reply. You can get rid of it. Instead, it embarrassed Yan Guo.

Therefore, the truth of this matter cannot but be investigated, and now that it has been found out, it is difficult to investigate.

Yan Rin was very clear about this, so he was not impatient, but said lightly: "In addition to the official document, King Qin also attached a private letter to me, saying that Lechang is still young and has deep affection, so as not to be sad." I don't have to mention it to her. In the future, he will send someone to imitate Lan Concubine's handwriting and tone, and write a letter to Lechang as usual. ”

Feng Changqing was ashamed in his heart. This kind of thing has been done, and he still wants to hide it, so that Lechang can continue to work hard for him.

An Wuji's heart moved: "Your Majesty, please forgive Weichen for making trouble." But if His Majesty tells the queen about this matter in private, he can stop his love for Qin. His Majesty only needs to tell the Empress that the time is not right. Asking her not to preach for the time being is also ......"

Killing two birds with one stone.

But he didn't wait for him to finish. Yan Rin had already looked at him deeply: "Lechang is my wife. ”

An Wuji was stunned, and suddenly realized that he had really been a secret agent for too long. Probably because he was used to considering the gains and losses of success or failure, he completely forgot to imagine that Qin Yan's political marriage. There may still be some truth.

He bowed his head and was silent. It's not without slander in my heart.

When Yan and Qin discussed the marriage, King Qin didn't think much of Yan Rin. Therefore, Princess Lechang, who agreed to marry Yan Guo, was born the lowest. The age is the youngest, and her marriage has been delayed for a long time, until this group of princesses have been sent away, and it is her turn. Needless to say, everyone knows that nine out of ten of these palace servants who came with Lechang are those who have a "mission".

Originally, as long as the two countries did not tear their faces, this kind of thing had to be turned a blind eye. However, if Lechang, who is their umbrella, can't get along with these spies himself, it will be much easier to slowly clean them up. This mute can only be eaten by the Qin State, and the lives of these people are also excellent revenge for the matter of Lan Concubine, with this result, the Yan State will not lose its dignity.

However, Yan Rin refused. He wants to protect Lechang and protect his land...... Wife!

Yan Rin could see the dissatisfaction of the two in front of him, but he didn't think he was wrong. She is his wife, how can he exaggerate her mother's pain in front of her, only dusting himself up. As a citizen of Great Qin, how could he force her to be an enemy of the country and toss and turn. She is the daughter of King Qin, how can he force her to turn against her family and have no peace in her life?

She no longer has a mother, even if she is a princess, between heaven and earth, who can protect her except him. If a husband cannot protect his wife, how can he be a human being? As a king, he can't even protect his closest people, but he wants to use their blood and tears to shield himself from the wind and rain? If he is powerless and shameless to this extent, what face does he have to be the emperor!

There was a strange silence in the study for a moment, until the silence was broken by the sound of shouting outside.

Feng Changqing, as the commander of the imperial guards, immediately shouted: "Who is making noise here?" ”

Someone outside replied respectfully: "In the Ganquan Palace, the queen's chamberlain has lost her manners, and if she has not reported it, she will immediately meet Your Majesty, and she is making noise outside." ”

Yan Rin raised her eyebrows slightly. When he met An Wuji, he gave an order, not to disturb, and the guards outside stopped him when he saw someone, but he didn't know what was going on in Ganquan Palace, but he couldn't wait for this moment. Immediately calmly gave his will: "Let him in." ”

Soon, a pale-faced chamberlain staggered into the imperial study, and as soon as he entered, he knelt directly on the ground: "Your Majesty, the queen has fainted." ”

Yan Rin got up in shock, took two steps, and stopped again: "An Qing has been in a foreign country for a long time, and I should have washed the dust for Qing. It's just that the queen is unwell, and I am tired

Later, I will choose a day to discuss the merits for the Qing, and the Qing will go back today. ”

An Wuji didn't expect Yan Rin to be so affectionate, and he still remembered that he couldn't snub himself, so he hurriedly bowed and saluted: "How dare Weichen have His Majesty Lao so bothered." ”

Yan Rin really didn't have time to say more of these polite words, waved his hand, and walked out quickly.

Feng Changqing also hurriedly followed, but he only had time to turn around and explain: "I'll let the guards accompany you out of the palace." You don't have a mansion in Beijing yet, so let's live in my house first. ”

An Wuji responded. also followed out of the imperial study, looked at this gentleman and a minister from afar, and walked away quickly, unconsciously smiling slightly.

His Majesty's temperament seemed to be very different from what he had thought of as earth.

――――――――――――――――――――――

"Have you heard? Our queen's mother's biological mother was beaten to death. ”

"Yes, I heard that it was the King of Qin who failed to kill the royal brother of the Chu State. Just take the people around you to get angry. But it was the lady who hit this kind of bad luck. ”

"I heard that he died very badly. Wounds all over my body, poor ......"

In the depths of the darkness, these cold voices are still lingering in a loop.

She wanted to shout, but she couldn't. She tried to rush over and question, but she couldn't move.

In the boundless darkness, the arms of the mother are nowhere to be found. Between the churning blood, the people closest to each other in this world have gone farther and farther away.

It's like going back to the day when I traveled to a foreign country. Red lacquer, red curtain, red wedding dress. In the grand ceremony full of bright red eyes, she said goodbye to the king and queen of Qin. And her mother's status is low, and she can't even come forward. Through the layers of red, she stood in the corner. His eyes were red, but he held back his tears. Just trying to smile at her and say goodbye to her daughter who she will never see again in her life.

The red dimmed, and in the darkness, the mother drifted farther and farther away. Her eyes widened and she tried to reach out. But he couldn't touch a corner of his clothes.

"Mother!"

She shouted. but he could not hear his own voice.

sat on the couch, touched Lechang's hot forehead, and watched tears quietly slip from the corners of her eyes. Listening to the murmuring of "Mother! Yan Rin was speechless.

She was only thirteen and a half years old.

No matter what this marriage is, he and Lechang have already held a big wedding, and she is his wife. He should cherish her, take care of her, wait for her to grow up, wait for her to be ready. Just as the man had been taking care of him, waiting for him to grow up.

A few months after they got married, his sincerity finally brought her relief, this embarrassing girl is still innocent. felt that he was good to her, so she also trusted and relied on her wholeheartedly, and shared everything with him without hiding.

And in all her narratives, one can hear that her past, poor and pitiful, had almost nothing but a mother who loved her.

At that time, he also felt pity in his heart, gently hugged his small body, and said softly: "In the future, you will still have me." ”

Now, however, his little wife, in front of him, unconscious, was still weeping.

He suddenly became angry, and swept the imperial doctor in front of him with cold eyes: "Why hasn't the queen woken up yet?" ”

The imperial doctor had already knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, the queen is just frightened and palpitating for a while, and when she recovers, she will naturally get better with some medicine that regulates and calms her nerves." ”

Yan Rin looked coldly at the palace maids and eunuchs in the hall: "When you were in the Qin Kingdom, did no one teach you the rules?" The queen walked around the garden, and there were only two people around her? What about the people who clean the field before and after? Clearing out the people who are idle and so on! You deserve it so badly! ”

The subordinates of the full hall just kowtow and ask for sin.

Yan Rin said coldly: "What you have committed is a crime of death, thinking that you are from the queen's homeland, if I kill you, it will inevitably hurt the queen's face." But this personal service will no longer need you. I will send someone else to take care of the queen. ”

Everyone was shocked, and several high-ranking female officials couldn't help but plead: "Your Majesty, we are all old servants of the queen's homeland, and we have been following the queen for a long time, if we leave, I am afraid that the queen will ......be inconvenient for a while."

"It is precisely because I have been following for a long time, people are lazy, and they are reckless and presumptuous, so they dare to let people who are not indiscriminate collide with the queen Fengjia!" Yan Rin sneered: "If you still say this kind of thing, do you think that the palace of my Great Yan Kingdom will not kill anyone?" ”

The hall was silent at the moment, and no one dared to say a word more.

Yan Rin snorted coldly, strode out of the inner hall, and shouted, "Everyone give me a retreat!" Summoning the Commander in! ”

Feng Changqing has been waiting at the gate of Ganquan Palace. After all, this is the queen's bedroom, and although he is the commander of the imperial guards, he cannot trespass. What's more, when the queen faints, there must be an inside story, and this inside story is not something he should know, not necessarily.

After being summoned, he stepped inside, and when he arrived at the main hall of Ganquan Palace, he saw that there were no half attendants in the hall, and his heart was even more awkward.

"The queen was walking in the garden outside today, and overheard two palace people who were sprinkling and sweeping about the death of Concubine Lan, and she was shocked and unconscious. And the two palace people found out about the change and fled immediately. ”

Feng Changqing opened his mouth to say something, but he stopped, and just saluted cleanly: "The minister will immediately arrange to search for the person who collided with the queen!" ”
