Chapter 40: Obsession

Today's incident has made the palaces no longer have the intention of having fun.

Among the most gorgeous palaces, Ye Yan'an and the concubine stood facing each other.

The concubine looked worried, and put her hand on Ye Yanqi's shoulder, "An'er, fortunately, it wasn't you who met those assassins today, you don't know how worried the concubine is." ”

Ye Yan'an broke free of the concubine's hands and said with a wry smile: "Mother, are you worried that they are looking for the wrong person?" ”

The concubine's face changed, and she said sharply: "What did you say! ”

"Mother concubine, is she going to hide it from me now?" Ye Yan'an was heartbroken.

When he received the news last night, he thought that his mother would not let go of this opportunity, so he rushed to analyze the pros and cons overnight, saying that the news was strange and could not be acted rashly.

The mother concubine promised it at the time, but she didn't expect to turn around and deceive herself.

"Now that An'er knows, she knows, is she here to question me?" The concubine's phoenix eyes were horizontal, staring at her son with a dissatisfied expression.

"Erchen doesn't dare!" Ye Yan'an took a step back and pleaded guilty.

Seeing this, the concubine was extremely angry, "Erchen? And thou hast made a pride with me for this? ”

"Mother, not to mention that the news has not been confirmed, even if it is true, how innocent is the seventh princess?" Ye Yan'an said patiently.

For some reason, on this day's competition, he admired Gu Fenghua a little, and felt that it would be a pity if she died like this.

"An'er." The concubine lowered her tone, "You are just too kind, there is another wave of people who make a move today, maybe it is the prince's handiwork." ”

"Two groups of people?" Ye Yan'an was puzzled.

He knew that the dead man was sent by his mother, and he thought that the killer was also sent by his mother to be foolproof, so after Fenghua told him that there were three living mouths, he ordered the secret guard to kill and extinguish the mouth.

It can be said that those twenty people are the handiwork of the prince, and they are too lame, he doesn't believe it.

Although the crown prince is in decline, the Kening family is the head of the generals after all, so he will not produce such a manpower.

"Isn't it? So An'er, we can't take it lightly. "The concubine educates her son.

In the past, the son had no ambition to dominate, which made the concubine quite a headache, and finally let her son fight for that position with both soft and hard.

If the son is not hard, the mother must plan for him.

Ye Yan'an knew that he couldn't dispel the obsession in his mother's heart, so he took a step back and said, "I hope to compete with the prince fairly." ”

The concubine took a deep breath, but after all, she couldn't hold back her anger, and scolded with her head and face: "You talk to me about fairness? There is no fairness in this world! It was obvious that I met your father first, but I was robbed by the old woman of the Ning family, why didn't anyone come to tell me about fairness at that time? ”

"Mother, the past ......" Ye Yan'an listened to the grievances between the mother and the queen countless times, and still wanted to persuade.

"I'll tell you." The concubine interrupted Ye Yan'an, "Although today's matter was defeated, but the Gu family's girl has strong martial arts, if you want to take the military power in the northwest, the Gu family can't produce any more female generals, she can't stay." ”

"Mother, calm down." Ye Yan'an held the concubine's shoulders and tried to comfort her.

"An'er, we can't retreat. We and Ning's mother and son, it's not that you die or I live, do you understand? As she spoke, the concubine burst into tears and looked terrified.

Ye Yanan knew that there was a deep estrangement between the mother concubine and the queen, but since he could remember, the queen had not been closed.

When they were young, their brothers were often together, and they were very harmonious.

But I don't know when the mother didn't allow him to play with his brothers, and told him that his father liked him the most, and he was the candidate for the crown prince in his father's heart, and he had to be top-notch in everything.

He believed and did his best in everything, and his father and mother were very happy.

But when he got older, he realized that this was his mother's ambition.

At the beginning, his father was still an inconspicuous son of the Nine Emperors, and his mother Concubine Chen was born in a small door, which was not a good match, but the two hit it off at first sight, and when their love first opened, they promised each other for life.

But I don't know when the noble-born Ning family also took a fancy to his father, and earned military merits for him, helped him sit on the throne, and became the queen herself.

Fortunately, the father did not forget his mother and accepted her into the palace a few years later.

The mother always thought that the queen had robbed her man, her queen, and his crown prince, and said that the queen would not let go of their mother and son, so she always urged him to get back what he lost.

But he always felt that this was his mother's unilateral obsession.

So, he patiently reassured: "No, none of us will die." Let's give up those thoughts, I'll marry a princess, have some children, and you can live for a long time, isn't it great? ”

"Smack!" When the concubine heard this, she directly broke free from Ye Yan'an and gave him a backhand slap.

The crisp voice of this plan made both mother and son stunned.

After a while, the concubine hurriedly stroked the blush on her son's face, crying and apologizing: "I'm sorry, An'er, I didn't mean to hit you, I really didn't mean to......"

"Mother, you're stunned! Give up those obsessions! Ye Yan'an took her hand away and said indifferently.

"It's not an obsession, it's a life-and-death contest." The concubine was distressed when she saw her son alienated herself, she staggered to the main seat, sat down, smiled wildly, and stared at her son, "Do you know how the first prince died?" ”

When Ye Yan'an heard this, he asked with a panicked face: "Isn't it the concubine...... Could it be the mother concubine? ”

"That's right, I poisoned it." The concubine sat up, her usually charming face was a little distorted, "So, do you still think she can let us go?" ”

Ye Yan'an couldn't believe this amazing news, and muttered, "If my father knows about this......

The concubine chuckled, "What does he know?" This is what he and the Ning family owe me! At the beginning, he took me, but I was pregnant, and I didn't know what to do, so I licked my face and asked for a place in the side room. But when the Ning clan saw me, they asked someone to away, and let someone beat the fetus in my womb. Later, when I entered the palace and became pregnant again, I was so shocked that I couldn't sleep at night, and the fetus was stillborn. The blood debt between me and the Ning clan has long been settled, how can I let it go? ”

This blood feud is the shame of the concubine, and she has never mentioned it to Ye Yan'an.

It's just that if he doesn't push him now, I'm afraid that the mother and son will go the other way, so who will she fight for this throne?

At this point, Ye Yan'an couldn't say anything to make the concubine give up, and he had to start to seriously examine this road of contention.

Now that the two sides are deadlocked in the northwest, the Gu family is on the cusp.

But why didn't the mother concubine let him ask to marry Gu Fenghua at the beginning, and directly let the Gu family stand on her side?

So he asked: "In this way, why didn't you agree to my request to marry Gu Fenghua before, but now it's a big effort to kill her?" ”

"Why don't I agree with you marrying that girl from the Gu family?" The concubine became indignant, "I hate the daughters of these military generals, relying on the military power in their families, they can marry the best husband, and I don't want you to follow the old path of your father." ”

Alas, the obsession in the queen mother's heart is too deep, and now she has become the kind of person she hated at the beginning?

It's just that the authorities are fascinated, Ye Yanan can only sigh, "I'm not my father." ”

"yes, you're not him, that's because I'm paving the way for you." The concubine glanced at him, knowing that he was still soft-hearted after all, thinking that Gu Fenghua was innocent, "How can there be so many innocent people in this world, what was wrong with me in the first place?" Aren't your unborn brothers and sisters innocent? ”

Seeing that Ye Yan'an didn't speak, the concubine knew that he had a plan in his heart, and waved his sleeves, "What you don't want to do, the concubine will help you do it, I just hope you don't live up to the concubine's hard work for half of her life." Okay An'er, I'm tired. ”

"In this way, I will not disturb the rest of the concubine." Ye Yan'an gave up his hand and retreated, and withdrew from the palace of the concubine with a pile of heavy past.
