At this moment, Zhang Yuqing thought a lot.

The stable and happy life some time ago made her almost forget the proverbs of mysterious power in her ears when she first came to this world.

The mysterious force told her over and over again that the end of this world would not change.

If it weren't for Duan Shu's words today, she would have been assimilated by this world.

Maybe in another five or ten years, she will become an ordinary woman in this world, and she will accept her husband's remarriage peacefully, worry about her children, forget the hatred in her body, forget that she once came from another world, and hide a sober and uninhibited heart inside her body.

Duan Shu's seemingly calm and calm eyes hide an unprecedented fanaticism, as if she is sure that she can't refuse the temptation of the position of "queen" at all.

"Yuqing, you are the queen, Shi'er is the eldest son, the future prince, and the future emperor. You're a smart guy and don't need me to say more. I am telling you this not only to say hello to you in advance, but also to prepare you. You are not only Wei'er's wife, you are also Xiao'er and Shi'er's mother! Duan Shu said, "A mother naturally wants to give her child the best." Me too. ”

Zhang Yuqing's eyes closed and opened, looking at Duan Shu. "Lu Wei is also willing to marry Zhang Yuying?"

Duan Shu laughed, looked at the letter with gold patterns on the small table, and said disdainfully: "What she wants is nothing more than to continue her glory and wealth, the lion opens his mouth to want the position of the queen, and he is not afraid of the wind flashing his tongue!" Don't worry, at most, you will think that the snake will not be able to threaten you for a while. ”

Zhang Yuqing asked calmly: "I'm asking Lu Wei, and he is also willing?" ”

"Naturally, I am willing." Duan Shu said, the mocking gaze seemed to say that this is still worth asking? It seems that Zhang Yuqing is asking a big joke.

No one can refuse the number one position in the world, no one can refuse the temptation brought by the supreme power, which can be passed on to children and grandchildren, and stand at the top of the pyramid for thousands of generations.

How many people started wars, bled and drifted, and buried the lives of tens of millions of people, but also stepped on the bones to climb to that position, and finally died on the road, and there were many more people who followed one after another.

As long as Lu Wei marries Zhang Yuying and recognizes a cheap son, he can make the little emperor Zen throne, not only does he not spend a single soldier to ascend to this supreme position, but he can also leave a name in history and pass it on as a good story.

It's no wonder that Duan Shu, who eats fasting and recites Buddha in front of people all day long, and looks like a person who has no worldly desires, is excited like this.

"I ......" Zhang Yuqing took a deep breath.

Duan Shu stretched out her hand, stopped Zhang Yuqing's words, and said with a smile: "I know this thing came suddenly, it doesn't matter, there are still a few days before Wei'er ascends the throne, you can think about it again." ”

"It's ridiculous!" Zhang Yuqing's back was straight, and she turned around to leave.

Duan Shu stopped her again and said, "There should be a lot of silver deposits in Liangzhou over the years, right?" ”

Zhang Yuqing did not say anything.

Duan Shu said: "You also heard just now, Jin Yongxiu's thief ransacked the treasury, and now that Wei'er has ascended the throne, it is the time to use the money, you hand over the account books and inner treasury of Liangzhou to me, and your father-in-law will escort the silver two into Beijing." ”

Zhang Yuqing looked at Duan Shu, who was completely unfamiliar, and did not speak.

In a word, you want her to hand over the financial power? When is she papier-mâché?

"You don't believe me?" Duan Shu handed Zhang Yuqing a letter, "Wei'er wrote it herself, you can always recognize his words!" ”

Zhang Yuqing took the letter, and there were only a few sentences on the thin page, saying that he sent Fang Qin back to get the silver, and the payment was Lu Wei of the dragon flying and phoenix dance.

It is indeed Lu Wei's handwriting, with iron painting and silver hooks, square and strong.

Zhang Yuqing pinched the letter paper and took a deep breath.

The relationship between people is so fragile, under the huge wealth and power, any family love and friendship seem so shallow and vulnerable.

She once thought that Lu Wei's love for her was deep and majestic, but in fact, it was the same, and she couldn't withstand any tests and blows.

It turned out that Lu Wei needed her, and now Lu Wei has a better one.

At such a messy moment, Zhang Yuqing laughed out of place, which made Duan Shu unable to get off the stage.

Duan Shu said unhappily: "I thought you were a smart person. ”

The corners of Zhang Yuqing's mouth curled, "I also thought that you and Lu Dewen would never get along." ”

As a result, the two people's shared pursuit of power brought the rival couple back together.

If Lu Wei becomes the emperor, Lu Dewen will be the emperor, Duan Shu will be the queen mother, and they will still be a family that loves each other.

There are no eternal friends, and there are no eternal enemies.

Duan Shu's face sank, and there was a kind of anger of being humiliated.

"A smart person will judge the situation, have an eye, and know what is best for him. What is this sacrifice I made for Wei'er? Duan Shu said coldly, "What if you can earn some silver?" With a low status and can't be on the stage, what do you do to compete with the hundreds of thousands of troops in Wei'er's hands? I can't help but you want to, the wood is already in the boat. If you don't think about yourself, you have to think about Xiao'er and Shi'er! ”

After Zhang Yuqing laughed, he sighed lightly, "I know, it will be ready in these two days, and my father-in-law will be able to escort Yinliang on the road the day after tomorrow." ”

Duan Shu nodded with satisfaction, snorted, and accentuated his tone, "I promised that as long as you are obedient, the position of the queen is yours, and the position of the crown prince is Shi'er." Yuqing, you are a smart person, don't let your mother down, your mother will not treat you badly. ”

Zhang Yuqing turned around and walked out the door.

The scorching sun at the end of June hung in the air, illuminating the earth in a dazzling white. The cicadas in the courtyard trees hissed, and her head was buzzing.

The little maid waiting at the door saw that her face was pale and she was a little unsteady walking, so she stepped forward to support her worriedly.

Zhang Yuqing pushed the little maid away and shook her dizzy head, "I'm fine." ”

She forced herself into the house and sat down on the bed.

Lu Wei came back from Hanzhong, and although the two of them slept in the same bed, they had no intimate behavior. Lu Wei always restrained himself, he was afraid that she was pregnant with a child during this time, and he was far away from fighting outside, so he was absent from the child's conception and birth.

That will make him feel deeply guilty and feel sorry for Zhang Yuqing and the child.

On the night before leaving, Lu Wei hugged her, pressed against her hard, and gasped in her ear and said: "Originally, I was still anxious why didn't the fourth child come, but now I think about it, when I come back from the expedition, it will be just right for her to come again." ”

Zhang Yuqing stretched out her hand to cover her face.

She doesn't want to bet on human nature, and she doesn't want to gamble on feelings.

The little maid thought that Zhang Yuqing was sick from heat stroke, so she hurriedly called Wang Chunniang.

When Wang Chunniang came over, Zhang Yuqing was sitting under the eaves watching the sunset in the west, stretching out her palm to block her eyes.

Sunset on her face was plated with a layer of golden red, a pair of eyes were plain, a simple and simple bandeau dress, and a black bun made her look delicate and clean.

As if all these years have not left any mark on her, she is still the orphan girl with a cold and arrogant personality.

When Wang Chunniang saw those cold eyes, she chuckled in her heart, and just walked to the front, but before she could speak, she heard Zhang Yuqing say: "You came just in time, I have something to look for you." ”

"What's the matter?" Wang Chunniang asked.

Zhang Yuqing gestured to the chair next to him, "How much silver is still in the warehouse?" ”

Wang Chunniang was surprised why she suddenly asked this, but she still sat down and said: "Ten million taels are upward, and the details have to be calculated by looking at the account books." ”

"Tomorrow I will take five million taels out." Zhang Yuqing instructed, "Lu Dewen wants to bring the silver to Lu Wei." ”

If her prediction is right, this money is what Zhang Yuying asked for, and left it as compensation for the little emperor to become a vassal king after he became a vassal king.

Wang Chunniang stood up from the chair in shock, "What does Lord Lu want so much silver for?" I have brought all the food and grass materials for the expedition! ”

"He's going to fulfill his dream." Zhang Yuqing laughed sarcastically and in a low voice, looked at the sunset that fell to the horizon with his back hand, and said coldly.

Lu Wei has his dreams, and she also has her dreams.

On the third day, before dawn, Duan Shu took people to Zhang Yuqing's courtyard and asked through the door, "Yuqing, are you up?" ”

Zhang Yuqing was dreaming, she saw Lu Wei in her dream holding a long knife, wearing heavy armor, and a blood stain on his handsome face, striding into the Jinluan Hall full of corpses, with a cold face, a solemn look, and a violent aura all over his body, as if no matter who stood in front of him, the knife in his hand would split whoever was in half.

When she was awakened by Duan Shu's voice, Zhang Yuqing recalled Lu Wei, who was stepping on the bones of the corpse in her dream and persistently walking on the dragon chair, and let out a deep sigh.

She really can't underestimate the change that power brings.

Lu Wei has made great military achievements over the years, regained the lost territory, killed the Hu people in fear, and expelled Jin Yongxiu, and probably would not be willing to submit to a little emperor who does not know the world.

If it weren't for the fact that she wanted to keep the power that Lu Wei shared with her, so that she could continue to secretly support Sheng Guixin and the Red Lotus Sect, there would be no Lu Xiao and Lu Shi today.

Perhaps there really is no one who can resist the temptation of power.

She can't, and neither can Lu Wei.

Thinking about it this way, when she was once emotional, Lu Wei's vows in her ears were just that, absurd words on a whim.

In retrospect, what came to my heart was not moving, but tasteless, hidden in helplessness.

Zhang Yuqing chuckled sarcastically, covering her eyes with her hands, as if the more unbearable the relationship between her and Lu Wei was, the less sad she could be in her heart.

"Mother, wait a minute, I'll get up." Zhang Yuqing said.

Duan Shu's heart is on fire, can she not be in a hurry? Before the money arrived, everything was empty and empty.

Zhang Yuqing promised well on the surface, who knows if there will be any changes?

Such a smart woman, when her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are single-minded, she is naturally a good help for herself, but now, ...... It's not sensible!

By the time the door opened, the sun had already risen.

Duan Shu entered the room, looked at Zhang Yuqing's slow washing of her face, combed her hair, almost couldn't hold back her anger, clenched her fists and said: "Yuqing, you promised before, today is the time to hand over the money to your father-in-law!" ”
