The queen called, naturally she needs to go as soon as possible, even if Liu Xuan and the current Empress He have no friendship with each other, but since they have become a member of this royal family, they can't do anything badly, so as not to cause some noise and annoyance.

After bathing and changing clothes, Liu Xuan didn't bring too many people, and only let Cao Bao follow him to the queen's residence.

At this time, there were two palaces in this city, called the South Palace and the North Palace, and the residence of the emperor and the queen was in the North Palace, Liu Xuan also lived here, but he didn't have to go too long, and he came to the palace where the queen lived in a moment, and after calling Cao Bao to go to Tongbing, he stood there and waited.

Anyway, what the queen is looking for him, he has already known through the white crane, and now he has the bottom in his heart, but he is not in a hurry.

was waiting, only to see a young man coming out of the queen's palace, about twelve or thirteen years old, it was his second brother Liu Wei.

Originally, he didn't have much intersection with this younger brother, and he didn't deliberately make friends with this younger brother, but he didn't know why this younger brother seemed to be particularly close to him.

When he saw Liu Xuan at this time, he also walked up with a happy face, and after greeting him, he stood there and talked to him.

"Brother Huang is here?"

"The queen mother is calling her brother to speak, and she is waiting for the communication. This was nothing, and it was normal to do so according to the rules, but unexpectedly, Liu Wei listened to it, and said directly: "I'll just take the imperial brother in, why wait here?"

I really don't understand why this Liu Xuan is so close to him, and sometimes Liu Xuan will be shameless and secretly wonder: "Could it be that this kid has seen something extraordinary about himself?"

He didn't know that when Liu Wei was still young, because the emperor didn't like it, his personality was a little dull, and he didn't have any friends of the same age in the palace, he could only play by himself. When he was flying a kite, the kite hung on the tree, and when he was at a loss, Liu Xuan passed by, and when he saw this, he kicked on the trunk of the tree, and shook the kite on the tree.

In this way, it left an indelible mark on the child's heart, Liu Wei admired Liu Xuan's brother very much, and this admiration did not dissipate with age, but became stronger and stronger.

It's a pity that Liu Xuan didn't know this, he even forgot that he had done such a 'great thing' at the beginning, but he is such a person, if he is affectionate to him, he will also be affectionate to him, so the two brothers chatted for a while, and they chatted quite happily.

It wasn't until someone invited them in that the two stopped talking.

"Since the imperial brother is here, I will stay for a while!" Liu Wei saw that Liu Xuan was going to chat with his mother, so he wanted to accompany him, but the queen next to him was close to the palace maid and knew about today's events, so he persuaded him to stop him, so he reluctantly went to his bedroom.

Liu Xuan knew it in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, after saying goodbye to Liu Xuan, he followed the palace maid into the queen's bedroom, saluted Queen He according to the number of etiquette, and waited until Queen He returned the salute and sat down, and then knelt down on the seat prepared earlier. From beginning to end, there was no omission in etiquette.

At this time, the palace maid brought the food and wine that had been prepared a long time ago, and after Queen He took the first bite, she sat there, looking at Liu Xuan, and there was even more provocation in her eyes, as if she had calculated that Liu Xuan would not dare to touch the food in front of her at all.

The situation in the palace is simple and simple, and complicated and complicated.

Empress He's son, Liu Wei, is the eldest son of today. Although he is not the eldest son, the identity of this eldest son is very important, and it stands to reason that her son's succession to the throne is no suspense.

But the emperor didn't like this son, and later he had a young son who was quite popular with the emperor, which made Empress He very dissatisfied.

Fortunately, although the young son is smart and clever, his body is not strong enough, and he is about to get sick every three or five days, and she doesn't know if she can survive to adulthood, so she put her mind aside for the time being.

But what he didn't expect was that the old emperor would rather leave his eldest son Liu Xuan, whom he didn't like very much, in the palace, and never made Liu Xuan the crown prince - although Empress He was not from a very good background, she was not a stupid person, and the meaning of this had long been clearly understood by her, so she had been trying to find a way to deal with it.

However, when she killed Wang Meiren, the emperor was furious, and her words have gradually become useless in recent years, if it weren't for her brother still holding the power, it is estimated that the position of the queen would have been unable to sit down.

I thought that I had to wait for the opportunity slowly, I didn't want the emperor's health to deteriorate suddenly, the illness was getting worse day by day, and I was going to die, if I didn't hurry up at this time, I was afraid that the emperor's position really had nothing to do with her son.

It is for these reasons that today's dinner is possible.

Looking at Liu Xuan, who was sitting there, Empress He was also thinking about everything about this young man in her heart.

She had the impression that because of his concubine and his mother's mediocre appearance, if the emperor hadn't been drunk at the time, this kind of thing would not have happened. Therefore, it is not liked by the emperor, and its status in the palace in recent years is not very high. And within two years of his birth, his mother died of illness, and he had no backer in the palace, so it can be said that almost all families ignored the eldest son of the emperor.

However, because he is low-key, he either basically doesn't move around on weekdays, and mostly hides in his palace to study, so Queen He didn't think about dealing with him at the beginning, but felt that he would naturally leave the palace soon.

But I didn't expect that Liu Xuan lived in the palace year after year, and now he is about to reach the age of the crown, but he has never been crowned king and left the palace, this situation made Queen He very dissatisfied, at this time the emperor is seriously ill, and Queen He has power inside and outside the palace, if this Liu Xuan can be driven out of the palace, he can also make his son succeed to the throne The chance of succession can be improved.

"It's just a young man who has never seen the world, just intimidate!"

Thinking so in her heart, Queen He first greeted her, and then said at the end: "If you always stay in the palace, you will inevitably get sick, so you should walk around more." If you can travel all over the world, you can also increase your knowledge!"

When Liu Xuan heard this, he immediately understood the meaning of Queen He's words, and asked him to leave the palace quickly.

It's just that the queen's words made him slander for a while, and secretly said: It was common for this prince to retreat for one or two hundred years before, don't you know that immortals are all otaku in a sense?

I talked nonsense in my heart, but I didn't say anything on my face, just waiting for Queen He to follow.

Sure enough, seeing that he didn't speak, Queen He continued: "It's getting more and more chaotic over the years, and even this palace doesn't stop much!"

Empress He killed Wang Meiren with a poisonous wine dove in the early years, if it weren't for Emperor Ling's anger, and then sent his youngest son Liu Xie to his biological mother, that is, Empress Dowager Dong, I am afraid that the young son would not have escaped death. This matter is not a secret in the palace, almost everyone knows it, and now Queen He deliberately made such a gesture, which is nothing more than a reminder to Liu Xuan that if she doesn't know what to do, she can also give Liu Xuan a cup of poisonous wine.

Moreover, it is not the same today as it was then. Back then, the emperor was in good health, and he was able to clean up Empress He afterwards, but now that the emperor is seriously ill, it is difficult to say whether he can recover or not, even if he is really poisoned, I am afraid that no one cares. What's more, Liu Xuan doesn't have any backers in the palace, who will stand up for him?

Empress He felt that Liu Xuan, who had never seen anything in the world, should be frightened enough, and it was estimated that he would leave the palace in a hurry after returning - she never thought that Liu Xuan had the idea of competing for the throne, because she felt that unless Liu Xuan was an idiot, it would be impossible to miss the position of emperor that could not reach him at all.

But in fact, Liu Xuan was really thinking about the position of the emperor, because the position of the emperor was related to the exercise of the Son of Heaven Dragon Qi that he cultivated, and this exercise was related to whether he could recover his cultivation, and even go further, so as to repay the hatred of being stabbed in the back back back then.

Therefore, Queen He's behavior today can be said to be useless, not only did not scare Liu Xuan, but also provoked Liu Xuan's chuckle, especially the disdain on that face, which made Queen He angry.

"Since I don't know what to do, then it's no wonder I'm ruthless!"

Queen He had a certain plan in her heart, and casually made a move to the palace maid beside her. I saw that the palace maid who had been standing aside was holding a tray with both hands, and the white silk on it was covered with something, and it was brought to Liu Xuan, and then the white silk on it was lifted, revealing the wine bottle full of wine at the bottom.

Liu Xuan looked at the wine bottle that was already placed in front of him, and smiled secretly in his heart: "It's poisonous wine again?

didn't know that he had a chuckle on his face at this time, and his look of not being frightened or even 'sure enough' made Queen He's heart even angrier, and said: "There happens to be a good wine in the palace, please taste it!"

She only thought that Liu Xuan would show the idea of being scared this time, because she couldn't think of anyone who would not be afraid of death, maybe the next moment she would bow to the ground and beg for her life.

"If you beg for mercy, let him go!" Anyway, as long as Liu Xuan leaves the capital in her heart, there will be no more threats. And she would be willing to surround Liu Xuan's life, and there is also the reason for her son Liu Xuan, and she doesn't know why, her son seems to be very close to this brother.

was waiting for Liu Xuan to beg for mercy, but unexpectedly the next moment, he saw Liu Xuan raise his hand and raise his glass, raised his head and drank the poisonous wine neatly, and even turned the wine bottle upside down, indicating that there was nothing left, Queen He saw such a scene, and sat there in a daze, her eyes widened and she looked incredulous.

"Could it be that this Liu Xuan is a fool?"

She was stunned, only to see Liu Xuan Shi Ran get up, and then saluted Queen He: "Thank you Queen Mother for giving this wine!" Then she said goodbye to the queen briefly, turned around and left directly.

This made Queen He even more frightened, the poison in the wine is the most poisonous thing in the world, ordinary people drink it and walk freely, I am afraid that they will be killed after only half of the drink, and Liu Xuan drank the wine cleanly, as if there was no one, this completely unbelievable situation made her completely stupid.

Liu Xuan didn't pay attention to it so much, and went back to his bedroom directly, and waited until the screen retreated, and only then took out a jade talisman from under his mouth and tongue after there was no one around.

Seeing that this white jade talisman seemed to be dyed with a layer of faint ink, and there was a strange aroma overflowing, Liu Xuan looked at it for a while and said secretly: "Although this poison-repelling jade talisman has not been completely refined, it is enough to deal with ordinary poisons!"
