"I've been following you and you haven't noticed. What are you thinking about? Why did you lose your mind after you came out of Mo Chengxuan's residence? What did he do to you?" Han Yixiao asked displeasedly. The words spoken were sour.
Bai Jiuyi didn't understand what he meant and asked, "What can Mo Chengxuan do to me?"
Han Yixiao looked at her and asked seriously: "Did Mo Chengxuan find out about your daughter's body, so he threatened you? Does he want to do something wrong to you?"
Now Bai Jiu understood the meaning of Han Yixiao's words and thought it was ridiculous. He rolled his eyes at him and asked: "General Han, the war is so tense now. You still have the mood to think about all these things. It really makes me sad." It will be a surprise.”
"It's not that I want to think about it, but the way Mo Chengxuan looks at you is different from how he looks at others, so I have to worry." Han Yixiao said truthfully.
Bai Jiu smiled, but didn't know how to explain it. Because Mo Chengxuan is her brother and he is worried about her, so he naturally looks at her differently from others, but she can't tell him now.
"Don't worry, Mo Chengxuan has no evil intentions towards me. He is a very well-behaved person. He asked me to go to his residence just to discuss the war. There is no other intention."
"You are my general. Why did he come to you to discuss the war? He was obviously looking for an opportunity to get close to you." Han Yixiao believed that Mo Chengxuan had evil intentions towards Bai Jiu.
Bai Jiu was ashamed, but could only look at him, promising with firm eyes: "Han Yixiao, listen carefully, Mo Chengxuan and I are absolutely innocent. He will never fall in love with me, and neither will I." You will never fall in love with him, so please trust us.”
Han Yixiao said coldly: "Of course I believe you, but I don't believe him."
Bai Jiu shook his head and smiled: "You will understand one day." There was no further explanation.
Han Yixiao stared at her, trying to see something in her eyes.
Bai Jiu stretched out his arms, put his arms around his neck, and stared at him lovingly.
Han Yixiao, who was still a little angry in his heart, couldn't get angry anymore when he saw her affectionate eyes.
Bai Jiu suddenly approached him and wanted to kiss his lips.
When Han Yixiao saw this, he immediately retreated and said, "No, what if someone sees me?"
Bai Jiu boldly said: "Don't worry, no one else dares to barge into my room except you without knocking." After saying that, he leaned forward and kissed his lips, giving him a gentle kiss. .
I thought about just kissing and leaving. But Han Yixiao hugged her tightly and gave her a deep kiss.
The two hugged each other, kissed each other affectionately, and couldn't bear to separate.
Under Bai Jiu's training, Han Yixiao is now more proactive and bolder.
Bai Jiu's heart was filled with joy.
After a long and deep kiss, they left each other's lips and stared at each other.
Bai Jiu snuggled into his arms, listening to his rapid heartbeat, a bright smile bloomed on the corners of her lips, and murmured: "Xiao, let's never separate, okay? Just like now, clinging to each other. "
Han Yixiao stroked her head gently and said warmly: "When this war is over and we return to the capital, we will tell the emperor that you are a daughter, okay? Restore your daughter's body and we will get married."
Bai Jiu raised her little face and looked at him and asked, "Will you really marry me?"
Han Yixiao looked at her with some displeasure and asked, "Am I, Han Yixiao, the kind of irresponsible man? I will definitely be responsible for you."
"Do you want to marry me just to be responsible for me? If nothing like that happened to us that night, would you still want to marry me?" Bai Jiu looked at him and asked seriously.
Han Yixiao also said firmly and seriously: "Yes."
A simple word, but it made Bai Jiu's heart feel as sweet as honey. She snuggled tightly into his arms and couldn't bear to move away.
The border military camp at night was much quieter than during the day.
Jun Qianche sat in the room, took out the purse from his waist and opened it. There was a note inside, which was taken out from the river lantern placed by Mo Qiqi on the night of the Chinese Valentine's Day. He always wore it, and there was also a note. It was the boat she made with her own hands, and we were in the same boat. Looking at these two things, I was in a daze, and thoughts were crawling all over my heart like vines.
Imperial Palace, Fengyang Palace.
Mo Qiqi was sitting under a tree full of white flowers in the courtyard, sipping tea, thinking about Jun Qianche.
He has been gone for several months and I really miss him.
It was still very cold when he left, but now it is summer in a blink of an eye, and the weather is very hot. I wonder what the weather is like at the border, whether it is as hot as Kyoto.
Can he rest well? Is it okay to eat? How's the war going? Has he lost weight? Have you ever thought about yourself? I wanted to ask him a series of questions in my heart, but I couldn't see or touch him. I just hoped that he could come back soon and return to me safely.
This time last year, I hadn't fallen in love with him yet, but I helped him carry the child. When he had nothing to do, he would come to Fengyang Palace to teach me tea ceremony. At that time, I quite disliked him and thought he was boring.
But at this time of this year, I fell deeply in love with him. I wish he could stay with me and teach me the tea ceremony carefully. Looking at him, every move he makes is so elegant and charming. It's a pity that he is so far away from me now. Border Pass was a place she didn't understand. She only knew that the conditions were harsh and the battlefield was dangerous. Although she couldn't go to the Border Pass to find him, her heart left with him from the moment he went to the Border Pass, hoping that he would come back soon. , bring your heart back.
Tonight in the Yang Mansion is destined to be an extraordinary night.
Mother Yang has always felt that something is wrong with her daughter during this time. Some time ago, her daughter had a bad appetite. She would vomit easily after eating, and she also had no appetite.
Yang Shihan told her mother that eating unclean food had hurt her stomach and needed some time to heal, but she asked the doctor to prescribe medicine for her, and after it was boiled and sent to her room, she refused to drink it, saying that it made her feel more uncomfortable.
During this period, although I didn’t vomit anymore, I still like to eat sour food. Because the weather was hot and my clothes were thin, I felt that my daughter’s lower abdomen was slightly bulging, which made her feel something was wrong. Her previous reactions were very similar to those of her daughter. Pregnant people react.
And since Mo Chengxuan went to the border, she was unwilling to introduce her to a marriage, which inevitably made Yang's mother suspicious. Although she didn't want to believe that her daughter and Mo Chengxuan might be married, the young people were together, * *, there was no guarantee that something would happen. Thinking of this, Mother Yang could no longer sit still, so she asked a doctor to be brought in. Yang Shihan was taken directly into her room without notifying her in advance.
Even though Yang Shihan said that she was fine and did not need to see a doctor, Yang's mother insisted on letting the doctor check her daughter's pulse.
So the doctor's diagnosis was that Ms. Yang was more than four months pregnant.
Mother Yang almost fainted after hearing this.
When Yang's father came back and learned about this, he was furious and asked his daughter who the child was, whether it was Mo Chengxuan's.
Yang Shihan didn't answer, which was regarded as acquiescence.
Yang's father was very angry and wanted to go to the Zhen Guo Gong's mansion to settle accounts with the Zhen Guo Gong, saying that Mo Chengxuan had defiled his daughter.
However, Yang Shihan stopped him and said that it was of his own free will.
The parents were furious.
The father asked her to abort the child.
But Yang Shihan was not willing to die.
The mother was also a little worried: "The child is more than four months old. Aborting it at this time will cause great harm to the adult's body."
Mr. Yang said angrily: "Should she be allowed to give birth to this child? The Mo family and the Yang family are at odds with each other. This child must not be kept and must be aborted."
However, Yang Shihan guarded her belly tightly and was absolutely unwilling to abort it.
Her father asked her to think about it and left angrily.
The mother cried sadly and left her daughter's room helplessly.
And Yang Shihan's heart is very determined, she must give birth to this child. This is her and Mo Chengxuan's child, a testimony of their love, and she must give birth to it.
The next day, after the morning court, Master Yang and Duke Zhen Guo left the palace together.
Mr. Yang stopped and looked at Mr. Zhen Guo: "Mr. Zhen Guo, please stay."
Duke Zhen Guo looked at Lord Yang with an arrogant look, smiled coldly and said, "Master Yang, stop me, what's the matter?"
Mr. Yang said angrily: "Mr. Zhen Guo, I didn't expect that the son you raised would be such a scoundrel."
Duke Zhenguo glared at Lord Yang displeased and asked, "How can Lord Yang say this?"
Yang Jingtian snorted coldly and said: "He defiled my daughter and left evil seeds behind. Shouldn't your Mo family give an explanation to our Yang family? When that kid comes back, let him kowtow to the Yang Mansion to be punished."
After hearing this, Duke Zhenguo smiled disdainfully: "Mr. Yang, my son has been at the border for several months. How can you be sure that the evil seed in your daughter's belly belongs to my son? It's because you yourself have not raised a person with good character and good moral character. It's ridiculous for a womanly daughter to come here and accuse me. Who knows who has the child in your daughter's belly."
"Hello, Mo Changxiao, you are cruel enough to say such things. You'd better not regret it. Since you also said that it was an evil seed, I will never let the evil seed be born." Mr. Yang said angrily. In fact, he It's not that Mo Mansion is responsible, because he will never let his daughter marry Mo Chengxuan, but after all, it is his life to think about it, and his daughter cares so much, his heart can't help but be a little shaken, he just hopes that Mo Mansion can give the Yang family an explanation , even if he wanted to give birth to the child, he would not let the Mo family be responsible. He didn't expect the people of the Mo family to be so ruthless, so why would he still be reluctant to give up.
Mo Changxiao said disdainfully: "Whether or not a bastard is born is your Yang family's business. What does it have to do with our Mo family?"
"Huh!" Mr. Yang left angrily.
After returning to the mansion, Mr. Yang told his daughter these words and asked her to bear the pain and get rid of the child.
But Yang Shihan shook her head desperately, just not willing.
Master Yang left angrily.
The court is now a little uneasy. Jun Yuehen is secretly wooing the ministers, waiting for good news to come from their people at the border.
The war at the border is now very tense.
As Jun Qianche expected, the enemy army transported food and grass to the newly acquired city.
At night, Jun Qianche sent people to sneak attack and fought fiercely with the enemy. As a result, he easily took back the city and got a lot of food and grass from the enemy. Even if the war lasted for another half a year, it would be enough for the soldiers without having to transport food and grass. And for horses.
The soldiers were very excited and shouted.
The enemy army fled, and the enemy commander was very angry. The king of the country who repaired the book and sent it to them would send soldiers and bring in new grain and grass.
However, Jun Qianche and his soldiers took advantage of the enemy's lack of food and fodder to pursue the victory, forcing them to flee. In just half a month, they had captured three enemy cities.
The morale of the enemy soldiers suddenly dropped.
The war is still going on, and as the enemy's supplies of food and supporting soldiers arrive, the battle becomes more and more intense.
However, Huachen Kingdom has always been on the favorable side, and the enemy troops have been retreating steadily.
Two months passed in the blink of an eye. At the next stop, the army was about to attack the enemy's royal city. This made the king and subjects of Beiming Kingdom panic. They did not expect that the Huachen Congress was so powerful. They were really small. I watched Huachen Kingdom.
However, the soldiers of Huachen Kingdom were more motivated and prepared to break into the royal city of Beiming Kingdom and capture Beiming Kingdom in one fell swoop.
The king of the Northern Ming Dynasty was a little frightened when he saw this, and prepared to surrender.
But at this time, someone asked to see the king of Beiming Kingdom, saying that he was from Huachen Kingdom.
The king of Beiming Kingdom met this man. He was a very calm man named Bai Jiang. He came under the orders of the Empress Dowager of Huachen Kingdom and the Seven Sage Kings, asking them not to give up tomorrow's confrontation between the two armies and return the favor. Explain that in tomorrow's battle, they will send people to help Beiming Kingdom, help them kill the emperor of Huachen Kingdom, and let their soldiers cooperate to attack the emperor of Huachen Kingdom. Once the emperor of Huachen Kingdom dies, Huachen Kingdom will succeed The person who takes the throne is the Seven Wise Kings. When the time comes, the new emperor will return all the cities belonging to the Beiming Kingdom to you. In addition, he will also reward them with porcelain, cloth, beauties, gold, silver and jewelry from the Huachen Kingdom.
The king of Beiming Kingdom hesitated.
Bai Jiang said coldly: "It is a good thing for you to cooperate with the Seven Wise Kings. If you don't cooperate, do you think you can win this war? If you lose to the current emperor, you will have nothing, let alone get it back. All the cities and the entire Beiming Kingdom will fall and become the possessions of the Huachen Kingdom, so you have no choice."
The Emperor of Beiming thought carefully and felt that what Bai Jiang said made sense, so he agreed to cooperate with the Seven Sage Kings. Regardless of tomorrow's battle, he would let their soldiers target the Emperor of Huachen. With Mo Chengxuan, the main task was not to win, but to kill the two of them.
After Mo Chengxuan learned that the Seven Sages and the Queen Mother sent people to assassinate him, he thought about writing a letter to his father, but he was afraid that if the matter was exposed, the Queen Mother and the Seven Sages would in turn harm the Mo family. So I didn’t tell my father about this for the time being. I thought that after this war was over, I would return to Kyoto and tell my father about this and let him know who the Empress Dowager and the Seven Wise Kings were. If he could have guessed something before, thing, maybe he would take the risk and write this letter.
The battle on the second day was fierce.
Jun Qianche, Mo Chengxuan, Bai Jiu, and Han Yixiao all went into battle and fought with the enemy.
Because it was the enemy's royal city, they fought tooth and nail to prevent the Huachen Kingdom's soldiers from attacking.
At first, the fighting between the two armies was focused on the soldiers. But later, when the Beiming Kingdom saw that the situation was over, they thought of cooperating with the Seven Sage Kings. The King of the Beiming Kingdom secretly ordered to target Jun Qianche. And Mo Chengxuan.
The army is fighting. Although there are soldiers protecting Jun Qianche's safety, in the chaos, sometimes this protection cannot be invulnerable. In addition, people with Jun Yuehen mix among the soldiers, blocking the protecting soldiers. His sight made the soldiers think that the emperor was protected, so they fought hard to kill the enemy.
So Jun Qianche and Mo Chengxuan were surrounded by enemy troops and people sent by Jun Yuehen.
Seeing someone secretly attacking Mo Chengxuan, Jun Qianche shouted: "General Mo, be careful."
Mo Chengxuan flew up from his horse and escaped the attack.
And at the moment when Jun Qianche was distracted, a dart sneaked towards him and hit his chest.
"Your Majesty—" Mo Chengxuan exclaimed and immediately flew to Jun Qianche to protect the Emperor.
Together, the two fight against enemies and assassins.
At this time, Han Yixiao and Bai Jiu were surrounded by enemy troops. They were anxious but couldn't get through. They could only fight desperately and cut the enemy in front of them in half with one knife. They just wanted to get away to protect the emperor.
The darts in Jun Qianche's hands were highly poisonous, and his vision soon became blurred. He fought hard, but the harder he used, the faster the poison would break out in his body.
But Mo Chengxuan was unable to withstand the attacks of so many people. He was hit by several arrows, but he was still trying to hold on.
This war lasted from day to night. Even if Jun Qianche and Mo Chengxuan resisted desperately, they could not withstand the onset of toxins in the body and the speed of blood loss.
It looked like the army was about to win, but they fell.
The battlefield was chaotic, with people on their backs, and the darkness affected everyone's vision, so there were more casualties in this winnable war.
But the army was finally defeated. Bai Jiu and Han Yixiao rushed to Jun Qianche and Mo Chengxuan. They had already fallen to the ground, bloody and bloody.
"emperor-"
"General Mo—" The soldiers were filled with grief and anger. Imperial Palace Fengyang Palace
Mo Qiqi was making tea when suddenly the quilt in her hand fell to the ground and broke into pieces. Her heart throbbed violently. She felt something was wrong and covered her chest with cold sweat breaking out on her forehead.
Seeing this, Banxiang called the imperial doctor, and after examination, it was not clear.
And Yang Shihan was sitting in her room helping her unborn child make clothes. With her hard work and desperate protection, the child was finally kept. Although her parents were reluctant, they were helpless when they saw their daughter being so persistent.
Just when Yang Shihan was concentrating on making clothes, the needle pricked her finger without warning, pricking her finger.
Yang Shihan put her fingers in her mouth to stop the bleeding, but she was very panicked. She didn't know why, but she was worried about Mo Chengxuan who was far away at the border.
The death of the emperor is no small matter. Even if Han Yixiao wants to suppress the matter, so many people are watching! It couldn't be suppressed at all, so the news spread to Kyoto as quickly as possible.
When Mo Qiqi heard the news, she couldn't accept it and was heartbroken.
After Chu Lingxiao learned the news, he rushed into the palace immediately and came to Fengyang Palace.
"Let me go, let me go. I'm going to the border to find the emperor. I don't believe this is true. You are lying to me. You must be lying to me." Mo Qiqi was very sad.
Banxiang and the palace officials looked at Mo Qiqi and advised sadly: "My queen, please calm down, my queen—"
Everyone cried sadly.
Chu Lingxiao rushed in and saw this scene. Mo Qiqi tried hard to break away from the people in the palace, rushed out, and wanted to go to the border to find Jun Qianche.
"Empress—" Chu Lingxiao was also very sad, but he knew better that they had no time to grieve now. The emperor died suddenly. The empress dowager and the seven wise kings would definitely take the opportunity to seize the throne. The Duke of Zhen learned that his son was here. If he dies in a war, he will definitely hate the emperor to death, so he will definitely strengthen his determination to help Jun Yuehen seize the throne. Now they have many things to deal with, so they can only suppress the sadness in their hearts for the time being.
When Mo Qiqi saw Chu Lingxiao coming, she immediately rushed to him, took his arm and asked: "Prime Minister, tell me that this news is a lie, right? This disappearance is not true, right? Your Majesty, don't you?" Something will happen. He is the emperor and has a real dragon to protect him. How can something happen? None of this is true. They were all deliberately told to deceive me. The emperor promised me that he will be safe. Came back. "
Chu Lingxiao said with a sad face: "My Lady, no one wants to see this outcome, but things have come to this, so please express your condolences and put the overall situation first."
"No, no, I don't believe it. Jun Qianche will be fine. He will definitely be fine. I'm going to the border to find him. I'm going to find him-" After saying that, Mo Qiqi ran out and listened to the palace officials. Chu Lingxiao told Chu Lingxiao that they had two completely different feelings. After hearing the palace servants say that the emperor had passed away, she could still deceive herself in her heart. It must be someone sent by Jun Yuehen who deliberately deceived her and wanted to test herself. Feelings for Jun Qianche. But she knew the relationship between Chu Lingxiao and Jun Qianche, and if he said it from his mouth, it was true, but she still didn't want to believe it. How could she believe it without seeing it with her own eyes!
"Mother, General Han and General Bai are already on their way back to Kyoto with the bodies of the Emperor and General Mo. They should arrive in half a month." Chu Lingxiao said sadly.
"No, I don't believe it, I don't believe it, Your Majesty, Brother, they will not leave me." Something happened to her lover and relatives she cared about most. How could she accept it
"Your Majesty, please forgive me." Chu Lingxiao tried hard to suppress the sadness in his heart. In fact, he was also very broken inside. But at this time, he couldn't cry, couldn't mess up, and couldn't live up to the emperor's trust and trust in him. Instructions.
"No, no, definitely not-" Mo Qiqi couldn't bear the blow and fainted.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty—" The palace people were panicked.
After Mo Qiqi was helped to the bed, Dr. Wang rushed over quickly. After diagnosing her, he said that she was too sad and that she would wake up soon after taking a rest.
Yang Mansion
Compared to Mo Qiqi who was heartbroken, Yang Shihan seemed much calmer.
When she learned about the emperor's death and Mo Chengxuan's death, she was stunned for a moment, then slowly walked to the table, sat down, picked up the water glass and drank water non-stop. She didn't cry or make a fuss, and it was so quiet that it was worrying. .
Mr. Yang and Mrs. Yang were very worried when they saw their daughter like this.
Her mother consoled her: "Shihan, maybe this is fate. As a military general, this is inevitable. If you are sad, just cry. Just cry and you will be fine."
Yang Shihan shook his head, raised the corners of his lips and said, "No, I don't want to cry, he won't die, his martial arts is so powerful, no one can hurt him."
My father sighed helplessly: "No matter how good your martial arts skills are, who can guarantee that there will be no accidents on the battlefield where swords and spears are open? The old General Han was victorious in every battle, but in the end he died on the battlefield."
"No, Mo Chengxuan will be fine." Yang Shihan said firmly.
"Shihan, you are destined to have no fate with him, forget her!" his father said seriously.
Yang Shihan sneered: "This is what you most want to see!"
"You kid." The father's face became unhappy. To be honest, his resentment towards the Mo family was only directed at the Duke of Zhen, Mo Chengxuan. To be honest, he admired him very much, but it was a pity that he was Mo Changxiao's son. , destined not to be the son-in-law of his Yang family.
Yang Shihan looked at her parents with firm eyes and said, "No matter whether Mo Chengxuan is really dead or not, I will only recognize him as one person in my life. Even if he dies, I will guard him for the rest of my life."
"You, you kid want to make us angry to death, right?" Mr. Yang's anger was successfully aroused by his daughter.
Seeing this, Mrs. Yang looked at her husband and said, "Master, don't be angry. Let's go out first and let Shihan have some peace and quiet!"
Master Yang felt sorry for his daughter and hated the fact that iron could not become steel, so he had no choice but to leave angrily.
After her parents left, Yang Shihan still told herself firmly: "Chengxuan will not die, baby, daddy will never abandon us, he will not." The tone was firm, to comfort herself, but also because of the feeling in her heart. A voice told him strongly that he would not die.
So she didn't let herself cry. If she cried, she would believe that something had really happened to him. If she didn't cry, it meant that he was fine.
In the Yongshou Palace, the Queen Mother was very happy to hear the news, but in order to play her role well, she deliberately pretended to be sad.
When Gong Yaxian found out, she was very sad.
Seeing this, the Empress Dowager persuaded: "Yaxian, don't be too sad. Maybe you and the Emperor really don't have this fate. Even if they are husband and wife, she can't give you a title, but this is okay." It's good, at least you don't have to be buried with him or sent to a nunnery like those concubines. Grandma actually didn't want him to die, so why did he die on the battlefield!"
Gong Yaxian looked at the hypocritical face of the Empress Dowager and really wanted to fall out with her, but she told herself in her heart that she couldn't do it now because she had to avenge her family and Brother Che. She knew very well that Brother Che's death It was the Empress Dowager and the Seven Sage Kings who sent people to kill him. If necessary, he might be able to stand up and testify, so he couldn't break up with them now. Even if he had to die, he would have to die in a worthwhile way.
Faced with the Queen Mother's persuasion, Gong Yaxian only nodded sadly.
After Mo Qiqi woke up from coma, she sat alone on the bed in a daze. She stopped crying or making trouble, and just sat in a daze.
Chu Lingxiao and Banxiang persuaded her, but she seemed not to hear them and remained silent. This blow was too big for her and she really couldn't bear it.
At night, Jun Yuehen secretly visited her, but she still ignored him. No matter what he said, she remained silent.
Seeing her like this, Jun Yuehen knew that she still had Jun Qianche in her heart, but fortunately Jun Qianche was dead. Even if she was sad and sad, it was no longer possible to be with her if she loved him again. So he felt a little more at ease. He believed that Mo Qiqi would get over her sadness sooner or later. He was willing to wait. This time, Jun Qianche could no longer compete with him for her.
The top priority now is to successfully ascend the throne. When he becomes the emperor, the world will be his, and Qiqi will also be his. This is what he has been pursuing for more than 20 years. He can do what Jun Qianche can give her.
So when Mo Qiqi remained silent, he shook his head helplessly and left.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Due to the sudden death of the emperor, the court was in chaos. A large number of ministers supported the Seven Wise Kings to ascend the throne. These people were attracted by the Seven Wise Kings and the Queen Mother, plus the Zhen Guo Gong. His attitude was very clear. He supported the Seven Wise Kings on the throne, so some ministers began to be one-sided.
Mo Changxiao originally supported Jun Yuehen, but now that he heard that his son died to save the emperor, he hated Jun Qianche even more. The last thing Jun Qianche wanted during his lifetime was for Jun Yuehen to take away his throne. Although he is dead now, I believe he does not want to see Jun Yuehen take the throne. The more he doesn't like it, the Duke of Zhenguo will do it. Even if Jun Qianche is dead, he will not be able to rest in peace. He is the one who picked it. When this war started, he asked his son to follow him to the border. Maybe he sent someone to do his son's death, so he must confront Jun Qianche. If he didn't want it, he would do it.
However, there are still a small number of ministers who are opposed to Jun Yuehen's succession to the throne, and feel that the successor to the throne should be found among the younger members of the royal family. If the Seven Wise Kings ascend the throne, the Queen's status will be very embarrassing in the future. Should she be named Queen Mother? It is inappropriate, and the identity of the Queen Mother will be very embarrassing. The Queen Mother is the biological mother of the Seven Wise Kings. If the Seven Wise Kings were the emperor, the Queen Mother would become the Queen Mother. In this way, there would be three queen mothers in the harem, and the seniority would be messed up. So it's not appropriate.
The ministers who support the Seven Wise Kings believe that the most urgent task is to establish a new king. The country cannot be without a king for a day. As for how to arrange the positions in the harem, we should discuss it later. Now we must focus on the court and the world.
Chu Lingxiao was naturally the one who took the lead in opposing the establishment of Jun Yuehen as emperor, but under the current circumstances, his opposition was obviously not a deterrent. After all, only a small number of people opposed it. The emperor left no heirs and no heirs. Leave a legacy photo, so they don't have an advantage.
The Queen Mother learned about what happened in the court and was very worried. Although her son's death made her heartbroken, she had also experienced major events. When the late emperor died suddenly, the court was also in chaos for a time, and the lives of their mother and son were almost in danger. , Fortunately, my son solved it later.
Although her son died young, she must not let unscrupulous people snatch away his son's kingdom. She also has grandchildren. What qualifications do those people have to let the Seven Wise Kings succeed to the throne
She heard that Mo Qiqi was in despair because of the emperor's departure, so she had to cheer up and persuade Mo Qiqi.
So the Queen Mother arrived at Fengyang Palace and saw Mo Qiqi sitting at the table blankly, silent and with dull eyes.
The Queen Mother walked to her and sat down, took her hand, and said warmly: "Silly boy, the Queen Mother knows that you are very sad. The Queen Mother is no less sad than you are. He is the flesh that fell from the Queen Mother's body. Something happened to him. The Queen Mother is sad. I feel like my heart has been poached, but no matter how sad we are, we must be strong. We must be strong for Che'er and for your son. Queen, cheer up. Now the former dynasty needs you to come forward. The only way to bring the little prince is with you. Only by coming back can we prevent the Seven Wise Kings from ascending the throne, otherwise Che'er's empire will be taken away by Jun Yuehen, and the empire he has been guarding will fall into the hands of unscrupulous people, and he will leave uneasy."
Mo Qiqi remained silent and sat blankly.
The Queen Mother sadly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said: "Queen, my mother can understand your helplessness now. When the late emperor left suddenly, my mother was just like you. She felt that the sky had fallen and she didn't know what to do. But we are surrounded by For the emperor's wife, in addition to being sad, we also need to be brave and strong to help them protect the country, Qiqi, cheer up, don't do this, Che'er will be sad to see it."
Mo Qiqi still locked herself in her own world and didn't want to ask anything.
Yang Shihan actually entered the palace today. Although she was also very sad, she firmly believed that Mo Chengxuan was not dead. Plus she was a pregnant woman. She did not allow her emotions to be too sad and hurt the child, so she made herself strong. I heard that the queen was stunned since she learned about the emperor's accident. She also heard about what happened in the previous dynasty, so she was very worried and came to the palace to have a look.
"Aunt—" Seeing that the Queen Mother was there, she bowed with full body.
"Shi-Ning, you're here just in time. Come and help the Ai family to persuade the Queen." This was the first time Yang Shihan met the Queen Mother after leaving the palace.
Seeing her swollen belly, the Queen Mother was not too surprised, because she had heard from Yang Shihan's mother that she felt that Shihan also had a stubborn temper, and she had to stick to the things and people she believed in. Thinking of Mo Something happened to Chengxuan this time, and I really feel sorry for Shihan, but now is not the time to talk about this. The top priority is to resolve the previous affairs first.
Yang Shihan came to Mo Qiqi, looked at her and said: "Empress, I know you are sad. You must not believe that something happened to my cousin, just like I don't believe that something happened to Chengxuan. Since I don't believe it, we You need to cheer up, stabilize the current situation first, and then send people to find them. If you can't help your cousin keep the throne, even if nothing happens to your cousin, even if he is lucky enough to survive on the battlefield, he will find out when he comes back, The throne has changed hands, what do you want him to do
Do you think if Jun Yuehen ascends the throne and becomes emperor, will there still be room for him
My cousin must have said something very important to you before he left! He must hope that you can help him protect his country! This is what he hopes for most, so now you have to cheer up and show him that his queen is very powerful. Let him see your brave and strong side. Only by stabilizing the overall situation can you have a chance to send people to find him. "
Mo Qiqi seemed to have listened to Yang Shihan's words. She looked at Yang Shihan, her eyes brightened, and asked, "Do you really believe that eldest brother is not dead?"
Yang Shihan nodded firmly: "I believe it. I believe that people who love each other are connected. My heart tells me that he is not dead, so I believe in my own heart, so I must make myself strong. I can't cry, not even a drop of tear." You can drop it, but if you drop it, it means you believe it, so if I don’t believe it, I won’t cry.”
What Jun Qianche said before echoed in his ears: "Qiqi, if one day I really die, you must let our child sit on my throne. You must support him and don't let others take it away." took away his throne.
If one day I am really gone, you are my queen. I hope you will not be afraid and face it bravely. "
Thinking of these words, Mo Qiqi's heart slowly became stronger. Although they had not yet fallen in love when he said these words, he seemed to be making plans.
Although I didn't take his words seriously at the time, they were inexplicably and deeply engraved in my mind.
Mo Qiqi looked at Yang Shihan and said firmly: "You are right, people who love each other are connected. I also believe that Jun Qianche is not dead, so I can't cry. I have to cheer up. I have to help him protect the country. Wait. We will wait for him to come back and we will not let the Empress Dowager and Jun Yuehen succeed."
"Shadow Guard—" Mo Qiqi immediately summoned the Shadow Guard to reveal himself, and ordered him to secretly leave the city and bring Prince Lu, Princess Lu and the little prince secretly into the palace.
Then she took out the things Jun Qianche left for her before going to the border. With these two things, she felt that her son could successfully ascend the throne.
In addition, Banxiang was asked to go to the He family and his son with a letter. Because the He family and his son had troops in their hands and it was a top priority now, Chu Lingxiao allowed them not to come to the morning court and strengthen the guards in Kyoto. Therefore, it was advantageous for them to have him outside the palace at this time.
Then Mo Qiqi asked the shadow guard to take the token and go to Ningnan.
After everything was arranged, Mo Qiqi had someone bathe and change her clothes, and put on a phoenix robe. Today was destined to be a day that would be recorded in history. It was destined to be a day of great changes. She had to cheer up and be strong. Face everyone with the best attitude and attitude, letting Jun Qianche know that she will not let him down.
He has always been giving silently, and now, she has to work hard to do what he has told her to do.
The previous dynasty was still arguing over who should ascend the throne.
Although Chu Lingxiao knew that the emperor had an heir, the empress did not speak or take out the things left by the emperor. If he rashly revealed the existence of the little prince, he was afraid that the empress dowager and Jun Yuehen would harm the little prince. , so he doesn't dare to act rashly now, he can only wait for the Queen to cheer up and work with him to support the young prince to ascend the throne.
The Empress Dowager may not be able to bear it any longer. She wants her son to ascend the throne. She has been planning for so many years, and now it is about to realize this wish. She does not allow any accidents to happen. She cannot be the first in Yongshou Palace. When Shi Ji learned about the previous dynasty, she felt very uneasy and decided to go to the previous dynasty to help her son.
When she came to the former court and heard the objections from the ministers, the Queen Mother looked very unhappy. She stepped forward and asked the ministers who objected: "Since you think the Seven Wise Kings are not suitable to ascend the throne, who do you think is suitable? Your Majesty. He died young and left no heirs. Will the throne remain vacant? As the saying goes, a country cannot be left without an owner for a day. Although everyone is unwilling to accept the fact that the emperor has passed away, the emperor is indeed gone, and the living people must take care of them. In the overall situation, we must consider the future of Huachen Kingdom. You are opposed to the Seven Wise Kings ascending the throne. Who else do you think is more qualified than the Seven Wise Kings
The Seven Wise Kings are direct descendants, the biological sons of the Ai family and Emperor Wu. Back then, the late emperor had intended to pass the throne to the Seven Wise Kings, but because of a legacy left by Emperor Wu, we could only follow the legacy and let the prince ascend the throne.
Now that the emperor has passed away without leaving any legacy, the candidates for the throne can only be decided based on identity and status. Looking at the entire royal family, who else is more qualified to inherit the throne than the Seven Wise Kings? "
Although those ministers who objected did not agree with the Seven Wise Kings proclaiming themselves emperor, they did not think of a suitable candidate. Although the emperor had brothers, they were all descended from concubines and had low status. One was born to a noble concubine, and another was born to a fourth concubine. Of them, one died in infancy, one ate something by mistake and looked stupid, and the others were born from concubines, and their status was too low.
The reason why these two noble princes met such a tragic end was because the Empress Dowager secretly ordered them to do so in order to prevent anyone from competing for the throne for Jun Yuehen today. It can be seen how much effort the Empress Dowager put into helping her son win the throne.
The ministers on the opposing side looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Seeing that the overall situation had been decided, the Empress Dowager's eyes flashed with pride, and she continued to say aggressively: "Why, can't you name a suitable candidate? Since you can't name it, the Seven Sages King Yuehen will immediately inherit the throne. This is also the emperor's visit. Before going to the border, he told the Ai family about the matter. He said that if something unexpected happened to him, the Ai family must let the Seven Wise Kings ascend the throne, so the Ai family came to the court. Now, let the Seven Wise Kings succeed to the throne. "
"Wait a minute." A majestic, crisp voice came from outside the hall.
Then Mo Qiqi, dressed in a gorgeous phoenix robe, walked into the hall step by step.
The exquisite phoenix crown has a lifelike golden phoenix spreading its wings and ready to fly. The long tassels hang down, highlighting the magnificence of the phoenix crown.
Wearing a long floor-length phoenix robe with a phoenix embroidered with gold thread, every stitch is so exquisite and gorgeous, showing the queen's dignity and nobility.
On her wrist was the dragon and phoenix jade bracelet given to her by Jun Qianche, which was crystal clear and beautiful.
Mo Qiqi walked in step by step with elegant steps, walked in front of the ministers, and walked in front of the Empress Dowager. She glanced at everyone with her black eyes, her eyes were colder and domineering than ever before, and she was full of nobility. Her harmonious aura made everyone present feel excited. This was a side of Mo Qiqi that had never appeared before.
Although she is not good at acting cold, stern, and not domineering, she must force herself to do this for Jun Qianche and her son.
When Chu Lingxiao saw this scene, his eyes were filled with admiration. The emperor had indeed seen the right person, and the queen would definitely not disappoint the emperor.
The loyal ministers who opposed the Seven Wise Kings' ascension to the throne were already very frustrated after being questioned by the Empress Dowager just now, and felt that the situation was over. Now that they saw the Queen Mother appear, hope was rekindled in their eyes.
Duke Zhen Guo had never seen such a daughter before. There was admiration and relief in his eyes. His Mo Changxiao's daughter must be different and superior.
Jun Yuehen was shocked when he saw Mo Qiqi like this, but he felt a little uneasy in his heart.
After Mo Qiqi glanced around at everyone, her eyes finally fell on the Empress Dowager, and she boldly looked at the Empress Dowager.
