"The decline of the Su family and the death of King Kang are all related to us, and the Queen Mother will not give up." Ah Yao said.

Jun Qiye frowned slightly, "What's the matter with Old Xu and the Queen Mother?" ”

Ah Yao and Rong Qianhan glanced at each other, but neither of them spoke.

Jun Qiye's eyes wandered back and forth between the two, and he hurriedly asked, "Why don't you speak?" ”

"We don't know what's going on with Old Xu and the Queen Mother." Rong Qianhan said truthfully.

"How is that possible? Aren't you the regent with your hands and eyes in the sky, and there are still people and things in Kyoto that are not under your control? ”

Rong Qianhan didn't look at him angrily, he wasn't three-headed and six-armed, could he still know everything?

Seeing that Rong Qianhan and Ah Yao didn't speak, Jun Qiye said again: "Old Xu is a veteran of the two dynasties, and he is also an important minister I trust, if he is the queen mother's person, the queen mother will really be able to take my throne as she wishes." ”

Jun Qiye's words are not an exaggeration at all.

During the period when Rong Qianhan went to southern Xinjiang, the affairs of the court and the central government were all taken care of by Xu Lao and the rest of the cabinet ministers for seven nights.

With the help of Xu Lao and others, there was no chaos on Jun Qiye's side, and he waited until Rong Qianhan came back.

Xu Lao was not only relied on by Jun Qiye, but the ministers in the court took him as the top and model.

In short, Xu Lao's status and prestige in the court are very high, and if he stands on the side of the Queen Mother, it will be a great disadvantage to Jun Qiye.

Seeing that Jun Qiye was in a hurry, Ah Yao softly reassured: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, we will find a way to figure out the relationship between Xu Lao and the Queen Mother." ”

"Then please."

"Hmm."

Rong Qianhan and Ah Yao left from the imperial study and met Xu Lao again at the gate of the palace.

When the two sides met, Xu Lao took the lead in walking towards them and took the initiative to greet them.

"I've seen the Regent."

Rong Qianhan replied politely with Ah Yao, "Old Xu is also out of the palace." ”

"Hmm."

"Together?"

"Okay."

Because the three of them planned to leave the palace together, they did not take the carriage, but chose to walk, and the carriage followed them.

The three of them walked on the street, and Ah Yao took the initiative to talk to Xu Lao.

"The Queen Mother, is her old man okay?"

Xu Lao replied with a smile, "When the official left, the imperial doctor was treating the queen mother, so there shouldn't be any big problem." ”

"That's good."

After a pause, A-Yao said casually: "The Queen Mother really scared us today, I thought that the Queen Mother would order someone to ask for the imperial doctor as soon as possible, but I didn't think that I had found Xu Lao." ”

"The official and the Queen Mother were friends when they were young, so the Queen Mother will think of the official at this time." Xu Lao said truthfully.

"That must be a good friend, right? Otherwise, the Queen Mother would not still be thinking about Xu Lao at such a time. ”

Xu Lao Youyou sighed lightly, "At that time, the first emperor was still there, and it was all in the past, so don't mention it again." ”

Ah Yao smiled and nodded.

After the three of them walked a distance, Xu Lao stopped and turned to the two of them.

"Ahead is the mansion of the lower officials, but the regent is going to sit in the mansion?"

Rong Qianhan bowed slightly, "It's inconvenient to bother." ”

"Then it's not far away."

After speaking, Xu Lao turned around and left.

Ah Yao stared at his figure walking away and said, "I didn't expect this Xu Lao to know the Queen Mother when he was young. ”

"If this king guesses correctly, Old Xu, the Queen Mother and the First Emperor were friends when they were young."

"Is there anything wrong with that? Who didn't have many friends when they were younger? Ah Yao asked suspiciously.

Rong Qianhan shook his head, "When this king was young, he heard a love story that was circulated in the streets. ”

Yao listened attentively.

"There is a pair of childhood sweethearts' ......"

A team of childhood sweethearts, because their parents did not agree, failed to get together, and later the woman entered the palace, and the man also entered the office, and the two met unexpectedly in the palace.

Unfortunately, they can't go back to the way they used to be.

After listening, Ah Yao's eyes widened suddenly, and she exclaimed, "Do you suspect that the lovers of this childhood sweetheart are the Queen Mother and Xu Lao?" ”

"That's right."

However, he has no evidence at present, and he intends to let Song Yi find out the truth.

Ah Yao frowned and considered, "If the relationship between the Queen Mother and Old Xu is really like this, then Old Xu will definitely stand on the side of the Queen Mother this time, and it will be in vain if you finally let the Queen Mother's people defect." ”

"Let's get to know first."

When the two returned to the regent, Rong Qianhan found Song Yi and asked Song Yi to immediately track down the affairs of Xu Lao and the Queen Mother.

Song Yi truthfully reported everything he found to Rong Qianhan that night, and after Ah Yao and Rong Qianhan listened, they couldn't speak for a long time.

Song Yi raised his eyes to look at the two of them and asked, "Lord Wang, what's wrong with you?" ”

"You go down first!"

"Yes."

Song Yi glanced at the two of them worriedly, but left the room.

Ah Yao approached Rong Qianhan a little and said, "I didn't expect you to guess it, Xu Lao and Tai are really childhood sweethearts." ”

It took Song Yi a lot of work to find the old family servant before Xu's family, and learned about these old things from the elderly domestic servant.

Rong Qianhan's eyebrows furrowed, "No wonder the Queen Mother has always been fearless, it turns out that she still has the last trump card." ”

Xu Lao's status and prestige in the court, once he stands on the side of the Queen Mother, things will become quite tricky, and they will face more and more troubles.

"Old Xu also has a wife and children now, and he is an important minister in the court, so he may not be on the side of the Queen Mother."

An upright person like Xu Lao has always regarded the great cause of his family and country as more important than the love of his children, and he should be able to distinguish between what is more important and will not do anything that endangers the emperor.

Rong Qianhan took a deep breath, "Hope!" ”

Yao approached him, hugged his waist from behind, and pressed her face against his back.

"Actually, if you think about it carefully, Xu Lao and the Queen Mother are also quite pitiful, originally the two were happy with each other, but because their parents opposed beating mandarin ducks, the two couldn't get together."

Rong Qianhan turned to face her, his big palm clasped her small hand, and the other hand held up her chin.

"What are you feeling?"

Ah Yao raised her eyes to look at him, "It's just a little embarrassing that there are lovers who can't end up married." ”

"Maybe they're not persistent enough?"

Although there are parents who oppose it, if the two really want to be together, any objection can be invalidated, and there are still countless ways for them to be together.

It is never any external force that can separate two people, only themselves.

Rong Qianhan leaned closer to her and said seriously: "Nothing can separate us." ”

The Queen Mother's prevention is nothing in his eyes.

Even if Jun Qiye and Li Yun are opposed, he still has many ways to be with Ah Yao.

The only one who can stop him is Ah Yao.

If Ah Yao doesn't want to be with him anymore, then he really has no choice.

Ah Yao crashed into his arms and hugged him tightly, "I won't be separated from you again, we will take Ziling to find a paradise together for the rest of our lives." ”

"Hmm."

When the words fell, Rong Qianhan lowered his head and held her lips, no matter how many words he spoke, he could express his mind more than his actions.

Between lips and teeth, Rong Qianhan couldn't wait to pick her up and walk towards the big bed.

Ah Yao looked at him with three points of shyness and seven points of expectation.

So much has happened in this time, and the two have not been so close for a long time, and both of them are looking forward to what will happen next.

Rong Qianhan put Ah Yao on the bed, and as soon as he pressed her under him, there was a knock on the door.

"Dad, Sister Yao, are you there?"

“……”

The two looked at each other, their faces full of speechlessness.

Rong Qianhan didn't want to pay attention to Rong Ziling who knocked on the door, and continued to press on Ah Yao, reaching out to untie her belt.

Ah Yao pushed him, "What are you doing?" Ziling is still outside. ”

"Leave him alone."

The knocking on the door continued, and Rong Ziling's voice came again.

"Dad, Sister Yao, are you here?"

Ah Yao grabbed Rong Qianhan's dishonest hand and asked, "Will Ziling be okay?" ”

"This king has something to do, too."

His business is more important.

Ah Yao glanced at him angrily, "I'll tell you seriously." ”

"This king is also doing serious things."

"You ......"

Ah Yao pushed him away, and got up to avoid him while he wasn't paying attention.

"I'll go see Ziling first, and wait for next time."

“……”

The ducks that reached his mouth flew away, and Rong Qianhan's face was hard to see.

Ah Yao stepped forward to open the door and looked at Rong Ziling outside the door, "What's wrong?" ”

"Sister A-Yao, I haven't slept with you for a long time, I want to sleep with you, is that okay?"

"No, you can't."

Without waiting for Ah Yao to reply, Rong Qianhan preemptively rejected Rong Ziling.

Rong Ziling looked at him puzzled, "Why not?" ”

"Because your sister Ayao has just returned to Kyoto, she has to rest well at night, and she can't mess around with you."

Rong Ziling replied angrily, "Who said I'm going to mess around?" I just want to sleep with Sister Yao. ”

"You ......"

Ah Yao interrupted Rong Qianhan, "I also don't think Ziling will mess around." ”

"Ziling, let's go!"

"Okay."

Rong Ziling happily took Ah Yao's hand, and the two went to Rong Ziling's courtyard together.

Rong Qianhan's face was dark, it seemed that he would arrange more homework for Rong Ziling tomorrow, and it was best to let him not sleep, so that he would have no time to rob Ah Yao.

Ah Yao followed Rong Ziling back to the courtyard, and the two seemed to have returned to the time when Ah Yao first entered the house, Ah Yao told Rong Ziling a story, Rong Ziling was very happy, but there was nothing sleepy.

After a while, Ah Yao looked at Rong Ziling suspiciously, and asked, "You don't seem to be sleepy at all tonight, do you have something on your mind?" ”

Rong Ziling looked at her without saying a word, as if he had something to say.

"Just say what you have to say."

Rong Ziling thought for a long time before speaking, "Sister Yao, after you and your father get married, will you have a baby soon?" ”

"Not necessarily."

Giving birth to a child is about fate, not something they can necessarily have if they want it.

After a long time, Rong Ziling said seriously: "Then I won't leave Kyoto with you, I'll stay in Kyoto!" ”

"Why?" Yao asked.

Rong Qianhan had agreed with Rong Ziling before, the three of them were going to leave Kyoto together, why did they suddenly change their hexagrams?
