Now that he had made up his mind, Xie Daoqing immediately arranged for someone to recruit Xiao Feng into the palace.

Xiao Feng heard that the queen had summoned him again, although he felt a little strange, but he felt that the other party's body was weak, and he was also an earth immortal, so he walked into the palace with the yellow gate. Of course, why did she prevent Zhu Yuzhen from being robbed a few days ago, so she asked Li Tingzhi and Zhang Shijie to help take care of Fengwu Mansion.

With these two people here, Fengwu Mansion should be safe.

Later, he also laid a lot of protection around Fengwu Mansion, and if anyone dared to break into it, Xiao Feng could also quickly know.

And after everything was arranged, Xiao Feng set off to Ciyuan Palace.

Stepping into it, Xiao Feng immediately saw that Xie Daoqing had already finished his preparations, and there were no two concubines next to him, so he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, bowed to Xie Daoqing and said, "People's girl Xiao Feng, thank you for the queen's banquet." It's just that I don't know what the queen summoned the people today, what is the matter?"

"It's nothing, it's just that this palace is very lonely, so I'm idle and bored, so I'll summon you. Please forgive me if you are offended. Xie Daoqing pushed the dim sum on the table in front of Xiao Feng and asked amiably.

Xiao Feng felt hungry in his stomach, and hurriedly swallowed a few, but after listening to what Xie Daoqing said, he paused, looked at those delicate snacks, and couldn't help but ask: "If the queen has a request, just tell Xiao directly, there is no need to push back like this." ”

"If that's the case, then I'll say it," Xie Daoqing was a little apprehensive, and immediately asked, "I heard that Zhu Yuzhen, the maid in your house, is the daughter of Zhu Jian." This woman originally made a marriage contract with the son of King Rong, but before she gave a big gift, she regretted the marriage and left. Fortunately, thanks to Commander Xiao, he did not fall into the rivers and lakes, but there was a misunderstanding. It's just that she's already in her prime,

"You mean, you want me to marry Zhu Yuzhen to Zhao Mengqi?"

With a look of surprise, Xiao Feng stared at Xie Daoqing.

Xie Daoqing nodded slightly and persuaded: "That's right." And in this way, you can also take the opportunity to conclude an alliance with the official family. When the time comes, your Red Phoenix Army and my Song Kingdom will be each other's horns, and you will definitely be able to resist the Mongol army together. How can such a thing be the best of both worlds?"

Looking at Xiao Feng, it was obvious that for this queen, this kind of thing should be a certainty, and there would never be any mistakes.

But unexpectedly, although Xiao Feng felt the other party's Yan Shen full of expectations, she still shook her head firmly, and the rejection that came out of her bones made Xie Daoqing stunned in his heart, but he felt that the two were estranged a lot.

"Why is that?" Xie Daoqing asked.

Her heart was full of puzzlement, and she didn't figure out why Xiao Feng would refuse.

"Nothing. Xiao Feng replied: "Because I don't have the right to decide a person's marriage, even if she is just my maid." What's more, she still has a father!And she even disobeyed her father, how can I be virtuous and can criticize her choice?" Facing Xie Daoqing with a slight bow of apology, Xiao Feng continued: "For your request, please forgive me for being too difficult to obey. ”

"But, don't you want to conclude an alliance with my Song Dynasty?" Xie Daoqing asked again.

"Of course!"

Xiao Feng immediately responded, immediately shook his head, and said, "But this shouldn't be at the expense of a girl's happiness. I still say the same thing, her marriage is all up to her, and I will not interfere, let alone interfere. The firmness of her heart is all revealed in that clear gaze, and it is clear that her faith will never be broken by anything.

Xie Daoqing was a little anxious, and complained: "But you should also know that her husband is the son of King Rong, and if she marries this person, it is not impossible to say that she will be prosperous and rich in the future, and she will be crowned the queen." You might as well ask her again for me, and I think she'll accept it." ”

"Her Royal Highness. Xiao Feng felt a little impatient, and interjected from the side, "Forgive me for taking the liberty of asking." Do you think you're happy right now?"

The gentle smile on Xie Daoqing's face immediately froze, and he replied with a stiff face: "Happy, what are you talking about?" ”

"That's right. You live in this palace, do you think you live happily?" Xiao Feng continued to ask.

"This. Xie Daoqing was stunned for a moment, the corners of his mouth pulled up slightly, and he tried hard to bring a smile on his face, but this smile became more and more hypocritical, like a thin veil, teaching people to not see clearly the inner formation thoughts: "If you are thirsty, someone will help you make tea, if you are tired, someone will carry you back, if you are hungry, someone will prepare a meal for you." How can I not be happy to be able to enjoy such blessings?"

"But your face tells me that you are not happy. Xiao Feng shook his head, his eyes piercing the other party's disguised mask like a needle.

At this moment, Xie Daoqing felt a little sad and said, "That's right. Actually, I'm not happy at all. She looked up and looked around, and she was tired of the red walls and green tiles that looked magnificent, but always the same, and the flowers, the shade of the trees, which seemed to be vigorous, but could only live in a small garden, but could not show its majesty in the wilderness, and the palace where it dwelt had not been well repaired for a long time, so that the whole palace began to dew every time it rained.

Tick-tock, just like the heart in her heart, it is always bleeding because of one person!

is obviously the concubine that Ming Media is marrying, and she is obviously the queen who has been canonized, but why do you always love the other two, but you don't want to live with her?

She was also angry, angry that her father and brother would send her into this cold and unforgiving palace?

She also grieved, sad why she had such a face, even her husband couldn't attract her?

She was even more annoyed, annoyed why those scholars were so ruthless, and they wanted to let a weak woman be subject to those rules?

The anger is gone, the sorrow is gone, the annoyance is gone, and any feelings are destined to be trapped by this heavy palace, so that in the end it settles, but only the dead silence like Gu Tan remains, and she never reacts to anything again, even if she accidentally hears the maids and eunuchs in the palace talking about things outside the palace, she also begins to follow the instinct carved into the bones of others, and drives these guys out.

The corners of Xiao Feng's mouth smiled slightly, and Fu You looked at Xie Daoqing coldly, and said, "Since that's the case, then why do you want her to suffer the same crime?"

Xie Daoqing was indifferent for a while, and only after a long time did he raise his head and smile bitterly: "So, will you agree?" The voice was gentle, but it seemed extremely empty, as if it was spoken from the marionette.

"No!" Xiao Feng shook his head and vetoed.

Xie Daoqing forced him to ask, "No?"

Xiao Feng replied: "It's not. It depends on Zhu Yuzhen's opinion. After all, she is the protagonist in this matter. She is the only one who can decide her choice, all I can give her is advice, and I will not interfere in any way. ”

"So, is there a glimmer of hope?" Xie Daoqing said with a twinkle in his eyes.

Xiao Feng shrugged and said, "It depends on what you do. Fu You looked at the dark sky and said, "And it's almost evening now." If so, can I go back?"

"Absolutely. ”

Xie Daoqing pulled out a smile with a little difficulty, but the smile was particularly embarrassing.

Xiao Feng stood up, tilted his head slightly at the queen, saluted, and said, "That's good." I'm leaving. Just as he was about to leave, Xie Daoqing in the distance suddenly shouted, "Wait!"

"What else?"

Xiao Feng turned his head and stared at the person in the distance, with a pale face, and a weak body, even if he spoke a little louder, his breath would be disordered, and the woman in front of him could survive in this palace wall for so long?

Xiao Feng felt incredible!

If she were her, she wouldn't want to stay here for even a quarter of an hour, she just wanted to destroy it with one shot.

Xie Daoqing's breath froze, looking at the woman in front of her, she felt indescribably strange in her heart, and couldn't help laughing: "It's nothing, I just want to ask you, who are your parents? ”

Whether it is behavior or thinking logic, it is all diametrically opposed to the woman at present, arrogant, firm and decisive, there are few men who are so open-minded, but it makes people feel very strange, I want to know how Xiao Feng was born?

Xiao Feng smiled and laughed at himself: "What kind of strange person am I? I'm just an orphan who was born and grown, has no father's pain, no mother's love, and has to rely on himself to fight for everything!" Fu You shook his head, but a little impulse suddenly surged in his heart, so he said to Xie Daoqing: "Actually, you are quite beautiful when you laugh." It's not like me, I'm so arrogant, and I'm even said that I don't have the slightest femininity. ”

"Is it really pretty?"

Xie Daoqing didn't know why, but he felt happy in his heart, and looked at the bronze mirror next to him, but in the bronze mirror, her eyebrows were always locked, and she didn't untie them for a moment, even though her cheeks were red and smiling, but it was difficult to dispel the helplessness between her eyebrows.

Alas!

It seems that walking in the palace, she has long forgotten what a smile is.

As if remembering something, Xie Daoqing looked up into the distance again, and the dashing figure had already stepped out of the hall and gradually disappeared in front of him.

"Alas, if one day we can leave this palace, it will be good over there. ”

But Xie Daoqing knew that as the queen, there was no possibility of leaving, so the smile on her face quickly faded, and she returned to her former dead silence.

"Cut. What is this thought, and why do I feel a little sad? One day in the future, if this palace is not destroyed, I will not believe in Xiao. ”

Feeling tears in his eyes, Xiao Feng stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears, and looked sideways at the Ciyuan Hall in the distance, but under his eyes, he was more and more repulsed by this palace.

As a woman, she will sympathize with Xie Daoqing in front of her!

But as the leader of the Red Phoenix Army, she would not show any mercy to the other party.

Xie Daoqing has been integrated with the entire palace, the palace is immortal, and the imperial power is not extinguished, so she will always be trapped here and cannot be born.
