When he walked out of Pingdong Palace, the sky had darkened, and it took most of the day to work Liu Fan always calmed down a housekeeper again, and sent the Fan brothers and Li Kui back early, Liu Fan walked alone on the street of the imperial capital, the silent night scene showed a stable and auspicious, Liu Fan breathed a sigh of relief, this night may be a quiet night after Liu Fan came to this shijie, and the wheel of life will be destined to go into another track tomorrow.

"The person who came is Liu Fan and Liu of the Pingxi Wang family. Just when Liu Fan was admiring the night of the imperial capital, a man in black suddenly appeared in front of Liu Fan, Liu Fan was startled, and hurriedly stabilized the absolute shadow of the sitting down, looking at the other party vigilantly.

"I'm Liu Fan, I don't know who you are?" Liu Fan didn't see many people here, but this black-clothed man Liu Fan would meet almost every day, as if the characteristic of this shijie was a black-clothed night walker.

The man in black held one hand in his arms, Liu Fan immediately gathered his aura with both hands, and the man in black glanced at Liu Fan and took out a gold medal from his arms: "The Queen Mother's decree, if you see this gold medal, if you see the Queen Mother, you will be under Liu Fan's secret decree." ”

Liu Fan was taken aback, the gold medals of the royal family generally do not appear in everyone's sight, but the appearance of each gold medal must be a major event for the royal family, or a major decision made by the royal family, Liu Fan hurriedly turned over and dismounted and was about to kneel on the ground, the man stretched out his hand to stop Liu Fan: "The Queen Mother Yi decree, Liu Dutong can stand to receive the decree, and Xuandu Tong Liu Fan quickly entered the palace." ”

"The minister took the order. "Although I didn't know that the royal family suddenly wanted to see me, the appearance of the gold medal shows that this matter must not be simple. Otherwise, you won't be able to win the royal family's gold medal.

"Liu Dutong, the Queen Mother is still waiting in the palace, Liu Dutong will come with me. After the man in black finished speaking, he disappeared into the darkness, and the majestic Daming Palace was completely asleep in the darkness at this time. Liu Fan's black night clothes followed the man in black to the left and right to Renshou Palace, the palace of the Empress Dowager He of the Empire.

"Queen Mother, Liu Dutong brought it. The man in black knelt on the ground, and a thin voice sat behind the bead curtain, although he couldn't see this person's face clearly, the only one who could sit in the Renshou Palace was the current Empress Dowager He.

"The last general Liu Fan visited the Queen Mother, may the Queen Mother be a thousand years old, a thousand years old!" Liu Fan also followed behind the man in black and saluted, kneeling on the ground. Without raising his head, he observed the surroundings, a typical women's palace, full of red and pink silk satin. Even the hanging bead curtain is a pile of mandarin ducks, a picture of wings flying, one of which is a large closed more vividly depicting the first emperor, the frail and sick emperor is supported by a woman is enjoying the flowers in the garden, and this woman Liu Fan has not seen it. can also guess that this person is the Empress Dowager He of the empire.

"Get up, and come and sit down. Empress Dowager He's voice was as melodious as the chirping of a yellow warbler, full of temptation, and people had already begun to fall into their minds when they only heard the first sentence. A palace maid helped a seat and placed it in front of the Empress Dowager He, and the Empress Dowager He behind the bead curtain also sat and faced Liu Fan.

"Empress Dowager Xie sat down. Liu Fan sat on the chair and didn't speak, but kept staring inside. As if she wanted to see through the bead curtain, and the Empress Dowager He inside was also looking at the geniuses that had recently emerged in this empire. However, the purpose of the two is obviously different, Liu Fan just wants to see the appearance of this once known as the first beauty of the empire, and the Empress Dowager He obviously has another purpose, neither of them spoke, just sat quietly like this, which made Liu Fan worried and uneasy, and did not understand what the Empress Dowager He meant.

Probably thinking that the time had come, Empress Dowager He finally spoke again: "Liu Dutong is the grandson of Taiwei Liu, the son of the late general Liu Ruxun, right?"...,

Liu Fan was stunned for a moment and couldn't understand what Empress Dowager He meant, Liu Fan hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Yes, the last general will be Liu Yu, the king of Pingxi, the seventh son of the late general Liu Ruxun." ”

"It's good that Liu Dutong still remembers his identity, can Liu Dutong know what I'm looking for you for?"

Liu Fan knelt on the ground, very frightened in his heart, and didn't understand what the Empress Dowager He meant: "The last general is dull and can't understand the deep meaning of the Empress Dowager, so please make it clear to the Empress Dowager." ”

The voice behind the bead curtain paused for a while, Liu Fan just knelt on the ground and didn't raise his head, but he was thinking in his heart What did Empress Dowager He mean? Could it be that the royal family wanted to show favor to themselves, in order to let themselves serve the royal family? However, the royal family should understand that this matter is obviously impossible, but Liu Fan has already received a hint from King He Ling, that is, the relationship between King He Ling and Liu Fan He Ying is impossible for Liu Fan to take refuge in the camp of the royal family.

"Liu Dutong still remembers who the ancestors of the Liu family are, and why was the general Liu Ruxun martyred?"

"The last general knows that the ancestor of the last general is Liu Yuling, the first generation of Pingxi King who followed the first emperor to fight the world, and the father of the last general sacrificed his life for the empire because of the Koubian of the lion empire and the traitors who supported the front line. Although Empress Dowager He's words seemed a little nonsensical, Liu Fan always felt that he had discovered something from them, and as for what it was, it was always so immediable that Liu Fan couldn't grasp the point.

"Stand up, come back to my words without kneeling on the ground, give you a seat and do it for you, not for others to see. Empress Dowager He's tone of speech was very gentle, which made Liu Fan feel a lot more relieved.

"Thank you Queen Mother, the last general's heart was very frightened and he didn't dare to sit down. ”

"Sit down, I have a lot more to ask you. Empress Dowager He's tone suddenly became sharp, which made Liu Fan's spirit tremble suddenly, and Liu Fan thanked him again and sat on the chair.

Empress Dowager He smiled softly behind the bead curtain, although the voice was very low, Liu Fan still heard it clearly, Empress Dowager He waved away the maids beside her, and after everyone withdrew from the palace, the door of the palace slammed and closed, leaving only Liu Fan and the Empress Dowager He sitting opposite.

"Since you still know why your ancestors and your father died in battle, let me ask you, if one day the royal family is in trouble, are you willing to help?" Empress Dowager He's tone of voice was not at all gentle as before, but very harsh, and even a little aggressive.

Liu Fan was stunned by Empress Dowager He's words. He arched his hand at the Empress Dowager He, and deliberately showed a puzzled expression on his face: "Why did the Empress Dowager say this, although the empire is not peaceful now, the imperial capital is still very safe." Inside and outside the court, there are generally capable ministers such as King Ling and Lord Zhang, who are generally able to assist, why is it difficult for the royal family to say, even if it is, I am afraid that there is no need for the last general to save first. ”

"I didn't ask you this, I only asked you if you are willing to help, you just need to answer yes or no?" Empress Dowager He's tone was very harsh, directly forcing Liu Fan into a desperate situation, letting Liu Fan choose one of the two.

Liu Fan hurriedly stood up from the seat and knelt on the ground, kowtowing heavily. He nodded to the ground and said, "If the emperor and the queen mother really need the last general, this meager liliang will definitely swear to protect the royal family." ”

Liu Fan has no doubt about the murderous aura in Empress Dowager He's words, if he dares to refuse, then he will definitely not be able to get out of this Renshou Palace alive, judging from the murderous aura looming around, there must be many cronies of Empress Dowager He in ambush around. Everyone was waiting for Liu Fan to say a "no".

I don't know if it was Liu Fan's words or Empress Dowager He just wanted to test Liu Fan, her tone was a little relaxed, and she said in a slightly disappointed tone: "Can't any of these First Emperor's ministers be trusted? Liu Fan, I ask you, if one day the royal family really needs you to pay for your life to save you, are you willing to pay for it?"

"The last general is willing!" Liu Fan knelt on the ground, his tone was very resolute. Along with this sentence, there was also the temperature in Renshou Palace, Liu Fan knelt on the ground, the murderous aura on his body spread out, and the murderous aura around him also became stronger.

Empress Dowager He's tone returned to flatness. nodded to Liu Fan and said, "Get up, sit down." You must want to know that I will be looking for you today, right? Among the many generals and young talents in the Weishenme court, I am the only one looking for you. ”

The last general was terrified and didn't know the deep meaning of the Queen Mother. Please also ask the Queen Mother to try it. ”

"Well, I'll tell you today, you listen carefully. Empress Dowager He's tone suddenly became much heavier, and she told the cause and effect of the whole thing.

Now the situation in the imperial court is becoming more and more complicated, the struggle inside and outside the palace is becoming more and more intense, and the royal family is sandwiched between these two powerful liliang is also stormy, as long as one side falls, then the other party shili will definitely set the royal family as a puppet, and when the time is ripe, he will completely control the empire, but now there are people who can't help it, he can't wait, he has to start in advance.

"Queen Mother, if it is really as the Queen Mother said, please forgive the last general for being rude, this matter is not at all something that the last general can do alone, since the royal family is going to suffer this great disaster, why doesn't the Queen Mother consult with King He Ling?"

Empress Dowager He sighed and said: "I once thought about finding King He Ling like you, but this matter is not as simple as you imagined, if I find King He Ling, not only will I not be able to solve the problem, but it will bring death to King He Ling, and the empire will also fall into disaster." ”

"Queen Mother, then what do you want the last general to do?" Liu Fan's heart was full of doubts, although the news of the assassination of the imperial family of the empire would be announced, Liu Fan had never heard of it to such a serious point.

"It's much more than that, I have also accidentally discovered several underground caves in the palace, which are hidden secret contact points used by the assassins in the palace, so I hope you can guarantee the safety of the emperor and the continuation of this empire. Empress Dowager He's tone was a little tired, but when she said Zuihou's words, her tone was unusually resolute, and she was resolute and unrefusable.

Liu Fan frowned, the royal family and Liu Fan can be said to be a blood feud, but after all, the royal family and Liu Fan are from the same door, Liu Fan was conflicted in his heart, and it was difficult to make a decision for a while, Empress Dowager He sat behind the bead curtain and anxiously waited for Liu Fan's decision, the first emperor said in the world, if the royal family really suffers a catastrophe one day, then only the Liu family can protect the royal family, is Liu Fan not the prophet in the words of the first emperor.

"Simon is in trouble, and when he meets everything, he is mortal. ”

"Queen Mother, the last general does not dare to guarantee the safety of everyone in the royal family, but the last general is willing to guarantee that he will swear to protect the emperor's thoughtfulness. Liu Fan finally made up his mind to help the royal family, if with his grandfather's character, no matter how much he hated the royal family, he could let go at this time.

After hearing Liu Fan's words, Empress Dowager He breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I am relieved to have your words, Ye'er, come out and give you Liu Dutong's salute." ”

"Ximen Ye thanks Brother Liu for his great kindness, Ximen Ye must be remembered in this life, and he will be reciprocated by the spring. Ximen Ye flashed out from behind the queen, opened the bead curtain and walked out, kneeling in front of Liu Fan with tears in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, the last general will not dare to bear it, the emperor can rest assured, the last general will swear to protect the emperor's thoughtfulness. Liu Fan hurriedly knelt on the ground and helped Emperor Xian up.

"Ye'er, from now on, Liu Dutong will be your brother, and you must treat each other as a brother in the future, and you must not be lazy. ”

"The queen mother can rest assured that the sons and daughters will remember it in their hearts and never forget it. Simon Ye bowed down and saluted behind the beaded curtain. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
