217, how did you come back
The words were said to everyone, but the audience was a few women who didn't have a little bit in their hearts and stepped forward.
She still has to talk to the queen, who has time to deal with these women.
In this way, the queen and Ah Cha left one after the other.
Although they were leaving, they did not hide their whereabouts at all, and went straight to the Imperial Garden.
"You all stand down and guard the whole place for the palace."
The queen arrived at the imperial garden first, and as soon as she saw Ah Cha coming, she hurriedly ordered the palace people, and her voice was not small, as if she deliberately let Ah Cha hear it.
Ah Cha smiled faintly and didn't say much.
She wanted to see what cards the queen was trying to play when she did so many things.
"Lord Goddess, come with this palace, this palace has already ordered someone to prepare food."
"Hmm."
Ah Cha now wants to maintain his own cold personality, and he must make the queen feel unfathomable, so that he can grasp more initiative after the detailed conversation later.
But the queen was also an initiative, and as soon as Ah Cha sat down, the words came.
"This palace invited the goddess here today, and I also want to talk to you about the prince."
Ah Cha became interested, and his eyes stared straight at her.
"Oh? Does the queen want to talk to the deity about the crown prince? ”
"About the succession of the crown prince."
Ah Cha didn't expect the queen to hit a straight ball to such an extent as soon as she came up.
"Queen, the deity is just a goddess, no matter who succeeds to the throne, it has nothing to do with the deity."
The queen shook her head and immediately denied her words.
"No, it has something to do with the goddess."
"This palace is the biological mother of the prince, so she naturally knows the prince's thoughts very well, and she has also heard that the prince and his staff have repeatedly looked for the goddess."
"This palace also knows that the prince now trusts the goddess very much, so this palace also has a request."
The queen became sad as she spoke, and her whole person was shrouded in a faint sorrow.
But this is a big doubt for Ah Cha.
Isn't it, she didn't have auditory hallucinations, did the dignified queen actually have a request for herself?
She looked the queen up and down several times, trying to see a clue from her face.
But before she could see the clue, the queen's question came again.
"Lady Goddess, are you unwilling to accede to this palace's request?"
This time, the queen's words were already stained with crying.
Ah Cha felt very inexplicable, but it was still rare that he didn't question the queen, and just nodded silently.
"Well, then you can tell the deity about it."
With her approval, the queen was so excited that she didn't care about her image, and knelt down directly towards her.
Yes, it really just knelt down.
Being kneeled like this by the queen, Ah Cha was really at a loss.
"Queen, if you have any requests, you don't need to make this great gift to the deity."
As he spoke, Ah Cha tried hard to help the queen up.
She had never been accustomed to bowing down to her at every turn.
When others kneel on themselves, she feels that she is losing her life, and no matter how torturous she is, it is not such a way.
When she changes this feudal system, the first thing she will do is definitely to abolish this kind of etiquette first.
She thought so, but the queen, who was kneeling on the ground, was still reluctant to get up.
"No, Lady Goddess, I can't get up and say the request of this palace."
Well?
Can't get up and say it yet?
Ah Cha couldn't pull her even if she was pulled, and the queen insisted on kneeling like this, which was completely impossible.
"Then you just say hurry up, the deity still has to go and take a nap."
She really didn't want to face such a queen who fell to her knees.
"Goddess, I beg you, don't let the crown prince succeed to the throne."
Yes?!
The queen not only used her own name, but also didn't want the crown prince to succeed to the throne.
This shocked Ah Cha at all, she pursed her lips tightly, and looked at the queen with a gaze full of inquiry.
The queen was not frightened by her gaze in the slightest, and continued to speak to herself.
"The crown prince is the flesh and blood that fell from the palace, and no one knows better than me what kind of character he is."
"The crown prince is not suitable for this throne at all, in terms of intelligence and intelligence, the emperor needs Wen Taowu strategy, he is the one with the worst qualifications among all the princes, and in terms of benevolence, the prince has nothing at all."
"Even if the prince is stupid, he thinks highly of him, if it weren't for the group of staff around him, the prince would not be able to leave today."
"His Majesty was willing to make him the crown prince back then, but he fell in love with the stupidity of the prince."
"But if the crown prince is really allowed to succeed to the throne, it will be extremely irresponsible, whether it is for himself or for all the people in the world."
The queen's words surprised Ah Cha very much.
She really didn't expect that the queen would see the prince so thoroughly.
"Then why don't you want the crown prince to succeed to the throne?"
The previous queen talked about the shortcomings of the crown prince, but objectively speaking, the crown prince's succession to the throne is a very good thing for the queen.
After all, as long as the crown prince succeeds to the throne, the queen will naturally become the queen mother.
"Lord Goddess, 'the beloved son of his parents has far-reaching plans for it', I know the prince best, if he really inherits the throne, it will definitely cause countless disasters."
"As a mother, from a selfish point of view, I don't want my child to ascend to a high position, I just want my child to have a safe and smooth life."
After the queen's reason was finished, even Ah Cha was a little moved when she heard it.
She saw from the queen a mother's love for her children, and even made long-term plans for her children's future.
Thinking of the absurd behavior of the prince in the system log of the previous life, didn't he start to go crazy after the death of the dog emperor and the empress?
It seems that he may really agree to the queen's request.
It's just that Ah Cha is still thinking about it and doesn't say much.
But the queen who was kneeling on the ground panicked, she thought that Ah Cha would not agree to her request, and tightly clung Ah Cha's trouser legs.
"Lord Goddess, as long as you agree to my request, I am willing to escort Chen Zhaoyi in the palace and help her win the Holy Grace."
Ah Cha was once again stunned by her words.
Unexpectedly, the queen even saw through the relationship between herself and Jinlan.
But she still didn't say a word, just condescendingly fixed her gaze in front of the queen's eyes.
"Goddess, I know your plans with the eldest princess, so I came to beg you."
"As long as you promise me not to let the crown prince succeed to the throne and ensure the peace and smoothness of the prince's life, then all my forces in the palace, you can use them as you like!"
Ah Cha hesitated.
Not because of how tempting the conditions offered by the queen.
It's just that the queen's motherly heart made a perfect sacrifice for the prince's future moved her too much.
"If you know what the deity is up to, why bother?"
Yes, the queen has been sitting on the throne for many years, not only because her mother's family is extraordinary, but also because she herself has accumulated a lot of power in the palace.
But now, in order to protect the crown prince, the queen did not hesitate to exchange all her forces with herself.
"Lord Goddess, the crown prince is my child, this is what I should do for him."
Tears had covered the queen's cheeks, and Ah Cha really couldn't bear to meet her gaze, so she could only turn around and try to speak as plainly as possible.
"The Queen Mother has already issued an edict to confine the prince for two months, and you will send someone to take care of the prince, and you must not allow him to step out of the prince's mansion."
"You can also find a way to send those staff members of the crown prince, as for the ministers who support the prince in the court......
Before Ah Cha's words were finished, the queen seemed to have an epiphany, and quickly took over.
"Lord Goddess, don't worry, all the courtiers of the princelings, this palace will persuade them to follow the eldest princess alone."
The queen is determined to break up the princelings.
"It's good that the queen knows, the prince will start to be grounded tomorrow, and the queen should do these things as soon as possible."
Ah Cha finally relented.
She is also a woman, so she can naturally understand the queen's motherly heart who would rather give up everything to protect her children.
Moreover, the queen will not only use all her power in the palace for herself, but also break up the princelings, which is an excellent thing for their plan.
Ah Cha really couldn't think of a reason to refuse, and she didn't have a position to refuse.
"Goddess, don't worry, I will do all this as soon as possible."
"Chen Zhaoyi will be safe in the palace, and I will escort her."
Ah Cha nodded silently, in response to her words.
"Queen, when the deity is tired, let's go to rest first."
After speaking, she raised her feet and was about to leave, but the queen's voice came from behind her.
"Lady God, do you still want to do something to Your Majesty?"
The queen's words made Ah Cha sober up instantly, and a pair of eyes full of sharpness stared straight at her.
But the queen seemed to be unaware, and was still talking to herself.
"Actually, I have been a husband and wife with His Majesty for so many years, and I can still understand him if I ask myself, but in this matter of Chen Zhaoyi, I can't understand him."
"The world says that His Majesty is deaf and incompetent, not only addicted to wine, but also blindly pursuing immortality, and in my opinion, Your Majesty is indeed as rumored to be."
"It's just that I don't agree with one thing, Your Majesty is not good, not good, but in the end, his heart is pure, His Majesty will clearly put his intentions on the table, even if this intention is unseemly, but he will still put it out like that."
"So I can also see that Your Majesty really trusts the goddess, but the goddess has other considerations, so there will be those schemes."
"The relationship between me and Your Majesty has long since died out after so many years, and now I don't want anything else, I just ask the goddess to give me a little thin face, so that Your Majesty can abdicate peacefully and live for the rest of my life."
After the queen finished speaking, she looked at Ah Cha with tears in her eyes.
But Ah Cha didn't move anymore this time, she half-squinted her eyes and fell straight on the queen's face.
"Queen, you are bargaining with the deity!"
She had just promised that the queen would protect the crown prince, but she never thought that the queen would open her mouth, and now she has to protect the emperor.
The queen wants to protect the prince, and she can understand the reason, but the queen wants to protect the dog emperor, which is simply ridiculous.
Not to mention that the Dog Emperor has not asked about political affairs all these years, ignoring the people, he is already not a qualified king, but even the queen herself knows that the relationship with the Dog Emperor has long since died.
But the queen actually had to ask for a chance for the dog emperor to live.
She really doesn't understand.
The queen also seems to be a woman with means and strategy, how can she be so confused?
Xu is her doubts were too obvious, and the queen smiled self-deprecatingly and answered the reason.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is the father of the crown prince, and I don't want to see the prince without his father."
Forehead......
These words directly silenced Ah Chagan.
Good guy, I was waiting for myself.
For the first time, she really felt that the queen was such a love brain.
The emperor didn't love her at all, but she was still wishful thinking, and even used the prince's father as a reason.
Please, the prince has reached the age where he can marry, and there is no shortage of the dog emperor's fatherly love.
Besides, the Dog Emperor wasn't a good father at all.
Speaking of what happened to Tuoba Jun, she is not qualified to save the life of the dog emperor for Tuoba Jun and his mother.
Thinking of this, Ah Cha shook his head slowly.
"Empress, the deity doesn't have that much ability, and it depends on him whether the emperor can abdicate peacefully."
If the Dog Emperor knew the current affairs and Tuoba Jun didn't remember the past, then she could naturally leave the Dog Emperor alive.
But I am afraid that the attribute of the dog emperor's death will attack again, and he will die everywhere and bring about his own destruction.
The queen lowered her eyes and responded in a somewhat lonely tone.
"I see, thank you for the reminder."
Ah Cha also felt that a certain part of her heart seemed to be heavy, and quickly rubbed her chest.
"Well, the deity left first."
At this time, Ah Cha didn't know how much convenience and support the queen had given them later.
But now she believed that according to the empress's executive power, the princelings' courtiers should be notified soon.
Of course, Zhang Ming, the prince's staff, will naturally know the decision made by the queen soon.
It's just that now she needs to go to Jinlan to test her reaction to seeing Zhang Ming just now.
Yes, that's right, just at the end of the prince's congratulatory gift to Qiu Xue, Zhang Ming followed the prince and was looked at by Jinlan.
At that time, Ah Cha had already seen that Jinlan's complexion was wrong.
If she hadn't been invited to the Imperial Garden by the queen, she might have chatted with Jinlan a long time ago.
The queen mother has already gone to rest, the eldest princess is still in the palace, Jinlan will definitely not be with her in order to avoid suspicion, then this is the best time to find Jinlan.
Ah Cha was a little apprehensive in her heart, she only knew from Zhang Ming's mouth that he knew Jinlan, but the specific relationship between them was not clear.
Moreover, one is the young patriarch of the Southern Barbarian Clan, and the other is the Holy Maiden of the Southern Barbarian Clan, and there are great doubts about whether there will be a connection between the identities of the two.
Thinking like this, Ah Cha walked all the way back to the place where the confession ceremony was held before.
As soon as she got there, she could see Jinlan at a glance in the crowd.
At the moment when their eyes met, Jinlan also looked at her.
"Goddess, why are you back?"
Jinlan saw Ah Cha and the queen walk out one after another, so he honestly stayed where he was and acted as the mascot who talked to the wife.
However, she guessed a little bit about the queen's intentions.
The queen has always had no ill will towards her, and when she was closed in the dormitory before, the queen was also very helpful to her.
From the bottom of her heart, she is a little grateful to the queen.
So she subconsciously thought that Ah Cha was coming to her to talk about the queen.
But Ah Cha shook his head at her slightly, and then hooked his hand.
"Chen Zhaoyi, the deity remembered that he promised the emperor yesterday to inquire about your situation, so the deity turned back and came to you."
Ah Cha did not deliberately lower his voice, but deliberately let everyone present hear clearly.
Left and right she was using the dog emperor as a guise, and it was impossible for these people to really go to the emperor to ask if it was true.
And even if the emperor knew that he had a conversation with Jinlan, he only thought that he had not yet completed yesterday's magic and wanted to make up for some spells.
So instead of secretly calling Jinlan out, she might as well be above board and let everyone see it clearly.
Jinlan instantly understood what she was saying, nodded shallow to the women, and then followed Ah Cha out.
Of course, before going out, her eyes met the eldest princess first.
Now that her past with the eldest princess has been solved, she naturally doesn't want anything to cause any misunderstanding between her and the eldest princess.
Ah Cha naturally took all of this in and was very happy to see such a scene.
However, her attention was still on Zhang Ming, who was following the prince's side not far away.
In fact, from the moment Jinlan walked towards her, she had already noticed that Zhang Ming's face was wrong, and she looked very nervous, as if she was worried about what she would do to Jinlan.
She took Jinlan out of the sight of these women, went to a slightly remote place, and then asked her doubts straight to the point.
"Jinlan, are you familiar with the prince's staff before?"
Her words succeeded in making Jinlan stunned and looked at her incredulously.
"Why would the goddess ask that?"
It stands to reason that the acquaintance between himself and Zhang Ming should be very secretive, how can the goddess know about it?
However, this is definitely not that Jinlan thinks that Ah Cha should not know about this, but in her opinion, Ah Cha's question is too unexpected for her.
Jinlan was the eldest princess's closest friend, and Ah Cha didn't mean to stop her, so she directly recounted the things one by one.
"Before Zhang Ming sought cooperation with us, he had already made it clear that he was the young patriarch of the Southern Barbarian Clan, and you are the Holy Maiden of the Southern Barbarian Clan, so I am sure you will know each other."
"But just last night, when Zhang Ming came to see me, he specifically begged me to save you from the palace."
"I asked him why, and guess he answered?"
Ah Cha deliberately sold a pass, just to see Jinlan's reaction.
Sure enough, Jinlan's face was already gloomy when he heard the antecedents, and there were faint tears in his eyes.
This will not be rectified for Acha.
No, she just wanted to test whether Jinlan had a deep connection with Zhang Ming, why did Jinlan suddenly become this reaction.
But she knew that she should give Jinlan some time at this time, so she didn't say anything, just quietly waited for Jinlan's reply.
I don't know how long it took for Jinlan to speak.
But her words were tinged with obvious weeping.
"Goddess, what he should have said is to receive ...... That's why he must rescue me from this palace. ”
Ah Cha raised her eyebrows, she didn't expect Jinlan to guess it right at once.
"And who do you mean by the old man?"
Jinlan sniffed, and a pair of deep eyes looked far away.
"It's my dead young man."
Yes?!
It was actually the entrustment given to Zhang Ming by the young man who had died long ago in Jinlan.
It seems that the relationship between Jinlan and Zhang Ming is not just as simple as the clansmen of the Southern Barbarian Clan.
As if she had guessed her thoughts, Jinlan continued to speak.
"My young man used to be a young general, but he is also the former young patriarch of the Southern Barbarian Clan, and he is the brother of the current young patriarch."
"When the current young patriarch was still young, my young man and I often took him to ride horses and sing songs, so he always called me sister."
"Presumably, he was entrusted by his brother and our former affections, so he begged for you, and wanted to save me from the palace."
Good guy, as soon as this answer came out, it hit Ah Chalei's five thunders to the top.
No, the world is really that small.
killed her, but she didn't expect the relationship between Zhang Ming and Jinlan to be so deep and simple.
The co-author is Jinlan's young man who left Zhang Ming with instructions before leaving, asking Zhang Ming to protect Jinlan thoroughly, and then Zhang Ming must want to rescue Jinlan from the palace.
With all that said, Ah Cha felt that there was no need to hide it from her.
"He came to beg me, but I want him to exchange sincerity."
"And what do you think?"
Jin Lan knew his plot with the eldest princess, and he could also understand what he meant by asking Zhang Ming to exchange sincerity in his words.
"Goddess, I know the hard work between you and the eldest princess, the princeling is not a place to stay for a long time, and it would be a good thing if he could devote himself to your side."
"He's fine, and I'll have the face to mention it when I go to see his brother later."
Jinlan can be regarded as showing his attitude.
"I gave him three days, so what do you think he will choose?"
Ah Cha's words once again made Jinlan fall silent.
She and Zhang Ming hadn't seen each other for many years, and if they hadn't happened to meet today, she wouldn't have known that Zhang Ming had also come to the capital, and even became the prince's staff.
However, she is still a little worried about this brother of her own young man, and the young patriarch who she grew up watching.
"He's always been a kid with ideas, and he's the most keep-conscious, and he's true to his brother, and if I'm not mistaken, he'll be sincere."
Ah Cha believes that Jinlan understands Zhang Ming well enough, and also believes that Zhang Ming may show corresponding sincerity.
But what she wanted to make sure was that Zhang Ming could completely fall into her camp.
"I want you to find a chance to talk to him, I wonder if you'd like to?"
Jinlan's eyes widened and he pointed at himself.
"Me? Talk to him? ”
"But I haven't seen him for a long time, and he's now a member of the prince's staff, if that's what I do......"
"No, he's not going to be there soon, and now it's only you're the best place to talk to him."
Ah Cha could already clearly see the rejection in Jinlan's eyes, but she still finished the second half of the sentence.
"Preferably as his brother's surviving man."
Because this can arouse Zhang Ming's nostalgia for his brother to the greatest extent, attack the softest place in his heart, and make him most likely to agree to fall into his camp.
Indeed, Ah Cha knew very well that he was pouring salt on Jinlan and Zhang Ming's wounds by doing so, which would be a little immoral.
But who can really speak from the moral high ground?
If they can't pull Zhang Ming into their camp, then they won't be able to make better use of the power of the Southern Barbarians behind Zhang Ming, and their plans won't be able to be accelerated.
At that time, it may affect the situation of all the people in the world.
Ah Cha can't take any risks.
So even if she is now charged with immorality and unscrupulous means, she is willing.
"Good ......" Jinlan's eyes glistened with tears, she still pursed her lips in response, "I'll try it." ”
She is willing to sprinkle a handful of salt on her wounds with her own hands, and pave everything she has into stepping stones, becoming the bridge that will help Ah Cha and them win over the Southern Barbarians.
With her promise, Ah Cha has put down a hanging heart and does not forget to tell her the queen's promise.
"By the way, the queen has already responded, she will escort you and escort you to win the favor of the dog emperor."
"These days, the dog emperor is still eating fasting and purifying, you take advantage of his free time every day to brush his sense of existence in front of him, just show a little favor."
Jinlan nodded and agreed, but Ah Cha was still a little uneasy and continued to instruct.
"I will leave the capital in a few days, and at that time the dog emperor's fasting and purification will be over, he has a lot of lust for you, and now it's just because of time, you remember to protect yourself."
Jinlan nodded again.
"If you have anything in the palace, just go to the eldest princess and queen, they ......"
It's a pity that this time before Ah Cha's words could be finished, Zuo Chuge hurried over with a letter.
"Goddess, this is a letter from the master from the fief."
Takuba-jun's letter?
Ah Cha was already surprised when he heard it.
Tuoba Jun has been in the fiefdom for so long, and he has not sent a letter to explain the specific situation, which makes her and the eldest princess full of worries.
Now that I've written a letter, I guess it's also explaining the situation over there.
Jinlan saw her anxiety and took the initiative to say, "Goddess, I'll go to the wife first." ”
"Hmm."
After she left, Ah Cha finally opened Tuoba Jun's letter.
There was nothing special about the letter.
It was nothing more than that he first went to the fiefdom to dispose of the governor of the fox and the tiger, settled the people, and by the way, gained the hearts of the people, and then began to build the altar.
He had already sent most of his men to build lifeboats in the name of building the altar, and said that everything was going well, so he should not worry.
These words are still very common, but Ah Cha has a lingering bad premonition in his heart.
Coupled with the fact that she saw Zuoqiug's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, this conjecture deepened even more.
"Did Tuoba Jun encounter anything else on the other side of the fiefdom? What happened to him? ”
Zuo Qiuge has been struggling with whether to explain the situation truthfully, and now that Ah Cha has taken the initiative to ask, he can't hide it anymore, so he can only tell the truth.
"Goddess, in fact, Zhu Shun also quietly sent news to his subordinates."
"Oh? What's the news? ”
"It's the master's body in the fief that is getting worse and worse, and he has to vomit blood from time to time, and the vomiting of blood has been more frequent in recent days, I'm afraid it's ......"
Zuo Chuge looked at Ah Cha's face and didn't dare to say the rest of his words anymore.
But Ah Cha had already understood from his words.
She really didn't expect Tuoba Jun's body to be so bad in just a few days.
Obviously, Tuoba Jun didn't seem to be in any big trouble when he left the capital.
It's also her fault, she has been sending people to investigate the matter of the Blue Moon bloodline, but she has forgotten about it because she has no follow-up.
Now that Tuoba Jun's situation is not good, then he must find a way to go to the fiefdom to join Tuoba Jun as soon as possible, otherwise he is afraid that Tuoba Jun's body will get worse and worse.
Ah Cha, who realized this, didn't dare to delay, and commanded directly towards Zuo Qiuge.
"You quietly invite the eldest princess here, just say that I have something to discuss with her, and ask her to come quickly."
She had to discuss with the eldest princess as soon as possible the most suitable way to speed up the plans laid out in the capital in the last few days.
At the same time, they also have to find a way to investigate the relevant news of the Blue Moon bloodline as soon as possible, so that she can prepare some medicine for Tuoba Jun to save him.
After the eldest princess got the news of Zuochug, she quickly arrived.
"Comrade Acha, what happened? Why are you in such a hurry to see me? ”
The eldest princess knew that Ah Cha had only met Jinlan, so it was very strange for her to see herself in a hurry.
And as soon as Ah Cha saw her figure, the tight string in his mind immediately loosened.
"Comrade Eldest Princess, Tuoba Junhe...... He's not good......"
For some reason, Ah Cha felt that as long as he mentioned Tuoba Jun, he was faintly distressed.
Tuoba Jun had a hard time in the past, but now he is finally getting better, but his body is not good anymore.
As a friend, she really couldn't see such a scene.
The eldest princess's face also changed drastically, and she asked nervously.
"Did you get the message? Is Tuoba Jun's current body unable to hold on? ”
Ah Cha nodded heavily.
"Yes, he vomited blood very frequently today, but he didn't mention it in his letter, but it was Zhu Shun who told Zuo Qiuge, and I learned about the situation."
She wiped the tears from her eyes and handed the letter to the eldest princess.
"This is the letter from Tuoba Juncai, you can take a look."
With a heavy heart, the eldest princess took the letter, and the more she looked at it, the worse her face became.
"He has always liked to report good news and not bad news, I didn't expect him to hide the situation of his body from us now."
"However, the people we sent out haven't found out anything about the Blue Moon bloodline, and they can't come up with a solution for the time being, so how can this be."
The point that the eldest princess is worried about is exactly what Ah Cha wants to say.
"Comrade Eldest Princess, I want to speed up our plan and go to the fiefdom as soon as possible to check on Tuoba Jun's situation."
"Well, don't worry, there will be no accidents with me here in the capital."
"But the Dog Emperor has to eat fast and purify himself for nine days, especially on his last day, he has to bow three times and bow nine times to pick up the star tower, and I should have been there that day."
This is the problem that Ah Cha is really worried about and cannot solve.
The eldest princess pondered for a moment and gave advice.
"Why don't you fool the Dog Emperor to advance this date by a few days."
