As expected, a stone door behind him slowly opened. The light inside was strong, shining through the gaps. It stands to reason that it is a dark room, and it cannot be brighter than theirs, and the brightness is a little different from the weakness of the light, it is the soft light, which is very warm.

As the national teacher walked into the dark room, the stone door was gently closed, and the light gradually lost.

The two glanced at each other, and Chu Xia pointed to the door, "Let's go and have a look."

Jing Yuan hesitated, peeping into other people's privacy was not a gentleman's doing. But he couldn't stand Chu Xia's pleading eyes, and he was actually a little curious, so he agreed to her.

The two quietly walked to the stone gate, and it happened that the stone gate had left a crack for them to peep. Through the gap, you can clearly see everything in the room, because the center of the roof is inlaid with a night pearl the size of a goose egg, no wonder it looks so bright, it is even brighter than the current electric light, but it is much milder than the electric light, at least not dazzling.

Inside is a very elegant room, which looks like a woman's room, and the smell of orchids comes to your nose. c

There are no extra furnishings in the room, and the large bed in the middle is very eye-catching. But it wasn't an ordinary bed, it was a bed of cold ice. The national teacher was sitting on the cold ice bed, and they could only see his back, but they couldn't see his expression. The slightly gray hair is on the shoulders, and the back is straight, but it looks a little lonely. They looked at the sight, and there was a person lying on the cold bed, and both of them were shocked. Although she was blocked by the national teacher and couldn't see her face, she could be seen from her clothes as a woman.

There was a woman hidden in the National Teacher's Mansion, and it was in a dark room, how could this not make people curious. For Chu Xia, who was curious and could travel to ancient times, how could this not make her blood boil.

The two of them did not speak, but watched all this quietly.

After a while, I heard the voice of the national teacher, not like the kind of coldness that I didn't know fireworks, but the gentleness that I had never had.

"Today is the 3,720th day, and you haven't woken up yet, but do you know that the flowers are blooming outside at the right moment, and it is the most beautiful time. Don't you like orchids? I planted a lot of orchids for you, and now they are all open, colorful, fresh and pleasant, if you look at it, you must like it.

I've always thought that if you can wake up one day and go to see the orchids with me, then I will have no regrets in my life."

This affectionate dialogue is probably only possible in the face of people you like. Isn't he a Taoist priest? It turns out that he also has a red dust and mundane things.

Chu Xia looked at Jing Yuan in confusion, only to see that his eyebrows were in a ball, and he seemed to be more entangled than her.

"Junbao has grown up, you don't have to worry anymore, I will do everything I promised you. I'll tell you the good news, he's getting married, it's marrying Miss Chu, I think you must be very satisfied, right?"

Hearing this, the stupid Chu Xia also felt that something was wrong, only to see that Jing Yuan's whole person was tense, and there was surprise and disbelief in his deep phoenix eyes. Feeling his hand grasping her shoulder, subconsciously tightening, Chu Xia almost exhaled in pain.

"Who!" Even such a subtle movement was discovered by the national teacher with high internal strength. Suddenly turned around and snorted coldly.

Originally, because his back blocked their view, they never saw who the woman on the bed was. But at this moment, Yu Zhenzi suddenly got up and changed her perspective, so they also clearly saw the face of the person lying on the bed.

Fortunately, both of them were shocked.

"Queen Mother!" With an exclamation, Jing Yuan had already broken through desperately. looked at the bed in a daze, like a sleeping woman. Is this really his mother? Isn't he dreaming?

Chu Xia also followed in, and when he saw the person on the bed, he couldn't help but widen his eyes. The woman in front of her is really the queen's mother, in the past ten years, her appearance has basically not changed much, she is still the same graceful and moving, but her face is not like a normal person.

"What's going on? Isn't the mother dead? How did you end up here?" Just when everyone froze, Chu Xia broke the silence of the room with a voice.

Jing Yuanfeng's eyes are as deep as the sea, and the bottom of his eyes is full of turbulent waves.

Standing in front of the bed in a daze, his gaze shifted from the woman to Yu Zhenzi, and said coldly: "National teacher, can you give me an explanation?"

With this tone and title, anyone can hear Jing Yuan's extreme grief and indignation.

Yu Zhenzi's calm face also had more embarrassment, apology, guilt, and pain.

He looked at the woman on the bed with a sea of deep regret, sighed deeply, and then said leisurely: "Since you have found out, I will not hide it from you.

I knew that something was wrong when my sister activated the secret passage, and I built that passage for her, because I was afraid that she would have any trouble in the future, so she could escape from there." In fact, he thought that if one day she regretted marrying that man, she could come to him, and he would always wait for her, but he couldn't say this to Jing Yuan. "When I arrived there, you had already escaped, and Senior Sister, she drank poisoned wine in order to prevent Chu Cangmo from using her as a bargaining chip to threaten you. It was too late for me to arrive, and she only had her last breath left. She asked me to save you and help you complete the great cause, and I couldn't bear her to die, so I agreed."

"So...... Or did you go?" Chu Xia's eyes slipped with disappointment, and she thought that the national teacher had saved her.

"It's not dead, but it's a living dead. I sealed her heart so that she wouldn't die on the spot. Over the years, I have been putting her on a cold ice bed, using various herbs and acupuncture, and treating her, but there is still no improvement." Yu Zhenzi was deeply annoyed, thinking in vain that he had learned to be rich and had nothing to stump him, but he couldn't even save the person he really liked.

The cold air on Jing Yuan's body faded slightly, and he reached out to touch the pulse of the queen mother, and the skin under his fingers was cold to the bone, making his fingers tremble. Calm down and continue to listen, if it is an ordinary doctor, I am afraid that it will not be able to detect it at all, and only people with advanced martial arts can use their internal force to enter the human body to probe a little bit.

Even so, he could only detect a faint pulse, like a candle in the wind, which would burst at any moment.

Withdrawing his hand, Jing Yuan's face became more solemn, and he asked in a deep voice, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?" He always thought that his father and mother were gone, and he was left alone in this world. didn't know that the queen mother was still alive, how could he not be annoyed.

Chu Xia also looked at Yu Zhenzi, if he didn't have any selfish intentions towards Niangniang, he wouldn't believe her if he killed her. But would he really prevent their mother and son from seeing each other for the sake of this selfishness?

I saw Yu Zhenzi's hand under the long sleeve, clenched tightly into a fist, and slowly let go. Facing the young man's eyes, Zhengse said, "This is also what your mother meant, she doesn't want you to be distracted by her. And I wanted to use this to stimulate you and make you work hard."

"And then? After I ascended the throne, the world was peaceful, why did you refuse to say it?" Jing Yuan questioned coldly again.

"I tried to tell you, but your mother's body is getting weaker and weaker, and I'm afraid she won't last long. Even if you tell you, it only gives you hope once, and then disappoints you, and this result is not what your mother wants to see. And I still have a little selfishness, I don't want her to be buried in your imperial tomb after she goes, her life is trapped by the royal family, I can't let her die and not be free."

Jing Yuan closed his eyes, hiding all his emotions, and when he opened his eyes again, he was already much calmer.

"Is there really no way?" It was really painful for him to see his mother, but to face her leave again, and to see that he could not do anything for her.

"You should know my medical skills, if I can't save them, I'm afraid no one in the world can save them." Yu Zhenzi had no choice but to say a fact.

Chu Xia's heart was not good, she could feel the grief in Jing Yuan's heart, just like ten years ago, repeating itself again. Walked over and gently held his big hand, so that the temperature in her palm was slowly transmitted to him, warming his heart.

Jing Yuan shook her back and looked at the woman beside him, the only thing he could catch now was her, always giving him the most sincere warmth when he was most helpless.

"Who is that man buried in the Imperial Mausoleum?" Chu Xia suddenly remembered a very important question.

"It's Natsuka." This was not said by Yu Zhenzi, but by Jing Yuan, with Xia Xiang to his mother

feelings, most likely for her to do this.

Yu Zhenzi nodded in acquiescence, Chu Xia's eyes turned red, and he almost burst into tears. is a loyal servant and protector of the Lord, this kind of love is really rare in the world.

"Master, you always have another way, right? As a son of man, I can't watch my mother leave, which makes me feel embarrassed. Master, please tell me, what exactly is to be done? No matter what it takes." Jing Yuan looked at the master, and there was more pleading in his eyes, he couldn't lose anything, whether it was the queen mother or Chu Xia, he would do his best to keep them, because they were the most important women in his life.

After being silent for a long time, Yu Zhenzi didn't speak, he seemed to be hesitating whether to say it or not.

Looking at his expression, there seemed to be hope, and both of them were moving in their hearts, looking at Yu Zhenzi with anticipation.

Time passed minute by minute, and Yu Zhenzi made a difficult choice in her heart, and in the end, in their pleading eyes, she could only compromise.

"It's not that there is no way, it's just ......."

"Master, speak quickly." Jing Yuan couldn't wait to rush to Yu Zhenzi and pleaded.

"Yes, National Teacher, you just tell us, right? If he can save it but doesn't save it, he will feel guilty for the rest of his life, don't you want her to wake up as soon as possible and get together with us as soon as possible?" Chu Xia also came over to plead, and really did the husband and wife.

"Well, let me tell you, it's actually just a legend, so I'm not sure it's true.
