Zhengyuan fifteenth, Shangyuan Lantern Festival.

The shops on the streets of Liang Guoguo's capital are booming, the sky is full of fire trees and silver flowers, even if it is already sun, the street is still bustling with people.

This year is the fifteenth year of the reign of the female emperor Xiyin of the Great Liang Dynasty.

At this time, the people no longer minded the identity of the emperor's woman. On the contrary, because the national strength is becoming more and more prosperous and life is getting better and better, the empress is quite respected by the people in the world, and there are even people who build temples between the fields to worship.

In the Great Liang Palace, there are only a few candles flickering in the huge Qiankun Palace, and in addition, many places are shrouded in darkness, and you need to carefully distinguish to vaguely see the silhouette of a human figure sitting on the throne of the main hall.

Hearing the sound of scattered footsteps outside the hall, the person sitting in the hall raised his head slightly.

Wang Xiyin was born in the family of the minister, the name of wisdom when he was a child resounded in the capital, at the age of 12 was elected by the emperor as the crown princess, at the age of 13 widowed, at the age of 15 to support the first prince and young son to ascend the throne, listen to the government, at the age of 20 ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, becoming the first female emperor in thousands of years.

At this moment, the empress was sitting alone on the throne in the hall, her back straight and staring coldly at the closed door of the palace, looking cold and serious, as if waiting for something.

Finally, the door of the palace opened, and a group of soldiers entered with swords, surrounding the palace in an orderly manner, and then a person stood outside the hall wearing a yellow robe, his hands were empty, looking at the empress not far away, and he refused to step into the palace.

The empress lowered her head and sneered, the jade bead crown tied to her head made a crisp crashing sound, and through the bead curtain, you could see her mouth pursed into a line, and her expression was a little mocking and contemptuous.

There are also expectations that cannot be ignored.

"I've been waiting for this day for a long time, Your Highness the Prince. ”

I don't know if it was the prince's delusion, but he heard a hint of a smile in the tone of the woman opposite.

The "Queen Mother" prince finally stepped into the threshold, but was interrupted by Wang Xiyin's cold voice before he could speak.

"At such a point, you and I don't have to play the drama of mother-son love. Everyone understands in their hearts that your biological mother was rewarded with white silk by the emperor on the day you became the emperor's grandson. ”

Wang Xiyin raised his hand, pulled out his bun, removed the crown and put it on the bookcase in front of him, and the sound of jade beads colliding gradually disappeared.

Although she understood that the first emperor did this so that she would not be restrained in the future, there was no impermeable wall in the world, and she did not expect the prince to never know the truth, so in a temptation of the prince, Wang Xiyin acquiesced.

In a way, the prince's biological mother did die because of her.

Since that day, Wang Xiyin has been waiting for today, but the waiting time is a little long.

The prince looked at Wang Xiyin, and felt that time was really tolerant of the person in front of him, he was obviously thirty-five years old, but he was no different from a girl just from his face.

"If you agree to abdicate, I will immediately put away my soldiers. ”

Wang Xiyin crossed her hands on her abdomen, stood up slightly, and looked at the prince with black eyes like ink, completely unable to see what she was thinking now.

"I will ignore my past suspicions, respect you as the queen mother, and give you the greatest glory. ”

Wang Xiyin listened to the conditions offered by the prince, and unconsciously the corners of his mouth curled. Indeed, for an empress who is in a desperate situation, this condition is really tempting, not only will she not die, but she will still retain her wealth.

Maybe the prince feels that the victory is in hand and doesn't want to make a big move, or maybe he has a little family affection after getting along for many years, but no matter what the prince's purpose is, these conditions are not attractive to Wang Xiyin.

Because Wang Xiyin was asking for something else, she raised her chin slightly and smiled at the prince

"Prince, do you know that until the last moment, you can't show your weaknesses. ”

The prince watched Wang Xiyin walk in front of him, and couldn't help but take a step back, only to realize that his back had been pressed against a sharp weapon.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness the Prince. ”

The old man's voice sounded from behind him, and the prince recognized it at once, this was the Duke of Qi Guo, one of his henchmen, and he was the first to instigate himself to force the palace to seize the throne.

Seeing this, the soldiers surrounding the hall all drew their swords and prepared to step forward to rescue the kidnapped prince, but they were blocked by the secret guards who flew in front of them on the beam of the palace, facing each other, and the prince's guards were completely suppressed.

Almost instantly, the situation was reversed.

"As an orthodox member of the imperial family, for more than 20 years, you have not been allowed to ask about politics or contact with the ministers of the previous dynasty because of me. Now it's unwilling, that's why I have the intention of seizing the throne, right?"

The prince watched Wang Xiyin take out a jade bead bracelet and put it on his wrist, and saw her tiptoe and whispered in his ear

"There are seven hardships in life, so please have to live like this. ”

The jade bead in his hand lit up for a moment, and then it dimmed, Wang Xiyin took off the bracelet in disbelief and tied it again, repeated it several times, looked at the bracelet that had no response at all, and shook his head

"This can't be?"

"I don't ask for the throne, so why can't I ask for it?"

Wang Xiyin slowly raised his head, looked at the crown prince who was looking at him, and muttered, "Impossible, you mortals have always been intoxicated with power, not to mention the royal family, how many people have coveted that position for thousands of years, and even cannibalism, you can't be an accident." ”

The prince took off the bracelet and put it back in Wang Xiyin's hand.

"Today's event is just a moment of anger for me, and I have just stood in front of the temple, and I am relieved. Daliang is under the governance of the queen mother, so why should I add twists and turns to Daliang. ”

Wang Xiyin watched the prince retire, his body shook a little, and he watched a palace change end like this.

"What a waste of my time. ”

Hearing this resentful remark, the prince turned around, only to see Wang Xiyin rushing towards a guard who drew a knife, and the guard didn't have time to react, and watched the knife in his hand stab into the empress's abdomen.

"Queen Mother!"

The prince ran to Wang Xiyin, helped Wang Xiyin up in a panic, looked at the blood that kept flowing out, hurriedly covered the wound to block the blood, turned his head and yelled at Qi Guogong, who was already stunned

"Call the Imperial Doctor!"

Wang Xiyin's soul had already left his body, and looking at the appearance of the prince crying after he found out that he was out of breath, he had some mixed feelings for a while.

But soon Wang Xiyin turned around and left, her time was very limited, and she had to return to the underworld immediately, and strive to be reincarnated before today.

Huangquan Road, the underworld, is full of beautiful souls, only a woman in Xuanyi hurriedly ran forward.

It's almost to Sansheng Stone, and then it's the Nai He Bridge, and the woman is in a hurry, and she doesn't notice that there are many ghosts on this road.

Seeing that the bridge was in front of her, the woman was about to step on it and reincarnate again, when she suddenly heard a scolding behind her

"Shein! Stop!"

After turning his head and finding out who it was, Xiyin hurriedly went to the bridge, and when he saw the other side, he was dragged back to the Sansheng Stone with a rope tied to immortals.

"Cang Ze, you let go of me!" Xiyin struggled, but found that he was getting tighter and tighter, so he had to give up, raising his head and glaring angrily at the young man in front of him

"I'm not a prisoner, why do I use a rope to tie immortals!"

"Do you know that you have violated the rules of heaven!" Cang Ze found that Xiyin's arm was already red, put away the bundle of fairy ropes, grabbed Xiyin who was about to escape, and said, "Follow me back." ”

Xiyin raised his hand to open Cang Ze's arm, but found that the other party's hand was burned by Lethe water, hesitated, and still pulled Cang Ze's arm.

"I won't go back, I've already collected all the seven sufferings..."

Before Xiyin could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Cang Ze

"Heavenly Court already knows that you have come down to earth privately!"

Cang Ze reached out and pressed Xiyin's shoulder, bowed his head and patiently persuaded him

"Ayin, go back with me now, I plead with the Emperor of Heaven, maybe I can reduce the punishment. ”

"Why is the god of war so nosy. ”

Shein looked up, her dark eyes looking directly at the other party, and her tone was mocking

"Cangze God of War, we have broken off the marriage contract. You're called nosy now. ”

Cang Ze was stabbed by Xiyin's words, and she broke free in a daze, watching her run towards the Nai He Bridge.

Xiyin passed by Meng Po, ignored the bowl of Meng Po soup, and swaggered up to the Wangxiang platform. Seeing that he was about to pass through the Nai He Bridge, he suddenly felt that the sky was spinning for a while, and when he reacted, his hand was held by Cang Ze with a rope to tie immortals.

Cang Ze said to her apologetically, "Ayin, I can't see you doing anything wrong. ”

"Cang Ze, you let go of me!" Xi Yin used his hands and feet together, kicking and beating, and after seeing that Cang Ze did not react at all, he finally opened his throat

"It's rude! The dignified god of war wants to despise me, a weak little woman!"

Cang Ze paused, his face was red and white, as if he was ashamed and annoyed, shook his head and pinched an enchantment, and carried Xiyin away on his shoulder.
