Maybe it was good in her eyes, but it was different in Liang Huanqing's eyes.

After Qi Jingqin finished those words and returned to Qinzheng Hall, Liang Huanqing stood not far from Qinzheng Hall for a long time.

"After all, he still has the heart of an emperor, how could he guess so clearly..." Liang Huanqing sighed for a while, making people confused as to what she meant.

Yuebai also knew how dangerous the situation was just now, and she was wandering outside with the Queen. She knew that the Queen didn't know how to face them at this time, and should she tell Shen Shu, Ji Ziqi and the others about this matter? Woolen cloth?

But after all, she is still a queen, the mother of a country, and she has to think about the court, but such behavior makes her feel shameful.

He clearly knew that if Shen Shu and Ji Ziqi continued like this, the emperor was waiting to one day take advantage of their fateful couple's feelings to make a fuss and negotiate terms with Danhong.

When the time comes, the emperor will definitely make the matter bigger and make it known throughout the city, letting everyone in the world know that Danhong's princess, Concubine Shen, is having an affair with a court official. In this way, Danhong will always confront her for the sake of the princess's face. Compromise on China's conditions.

This made Liang Huanqing very confused. If he didn't know anything and accompanied them to help Shen Shu and Ji Ziqi, in the end, even if the incident came to light, he would not feel any guilt.

But now that I know about this matter, if it comes to light, I will feel deeply guilty. I clearly knew about it, but I still didn't tell them.

Liang Huanqing had dealt with government affairs for a period of time, so he naturally knew that there were some things that he had no control over. Although he was in a high position, he still had to worry all the time, worrying that he was not doing something well enough and causing the people to suffer.

I am worried that I will not be able to protect my country, that I will disappoint my ancestors, and that I will be ashamed of the people and the luxurious life I have been living.

It is a fact that the incumbent has more power, but there are many things to consider.

The reason why Liang Huanqing could think of what Qi Jingqin was thinking was because he had put himself in his shoes and knew that this year, starting from the beginning of the war at the end of the year, there would be countless things to deal with.

During the New Year's Eve feast, the emperor fell seriously ill and deposed the crown prince. On the day of the emperor's death, Qi Jingyang forced the emperor to go to the palace. Until the time of praying for blessings later, the new emperor disappeared for four months, leaving the queen to act as an agent of the government.

I don't think a year has been this bad.

Liang Huanqing was very entangled in her heart. She knew that at this time, the empire was in a state of decline, and there were many things that needed to be dealt with.

Zhao Zhao fought very hard in the border wars. There were experts and spies in the surrounding countries. Knowing the current situation of the Chinese Empire, he wanted to go to the largest country in the Central Plains.

Ji Ziqi used a strategy to alienate them, but this was not a long-term strategy.

If the problem in the north is solved and Danhong's support can be obtained under the lowest conditions, even using some unfair means is inevitable.

Wei Shen worked very hard to support him in the north, and Zhao Zhao fought against the eyeing Liang, but also suffered numerous casualties.

Those who charged on the front line were all the soldiers who were under Liang Fengmian's camp. After Liang Fengmian's death, all of them became Liang Fengmian - sacrificing their lives for righteousness and dying for themselves.

In Qinghai, the snow-capped mountains are covered with long clouds, and the lonely city looks at Yumen Pass in the distance.

Gold wears golden armor in a hundred battles, and Loulan will never be returned until it is broken.

Back then, my father was also a general who shed his blood on the battlefield. They protected and loved this land.

Each one of them has this belief engraved in their bones: "As long as the flying generals of Dragon City are here, I won't teach Hu Ma to cross the Yin Mountains!"

But even so, before they entered the military camp, they were still the children of their parents, and they would also be someone's long-awaited joy. How could they be allowed to waste their lives like this?

Liang Huanqing couldn't bear it. She had seen the scars on her father's body, and every scar was shocking. They did not hesitate to sacrifice their lives in order to defend their homeland.

But I heard that the king is the high lord of the temple, and the minister is guarding the border town. If the minister does not die, who can rebel against the king?

At this time, they are the monarchs, but Liang Huanqing is also the mother of a country. She cares about the world, so she must consider the common people in the world.

Danlong is not an ally that can be fed easily. They will definitely take this opportunity to speak out to the Chinese lion. If not, they will never propose to renegotiate cooperation with the Chinese.

Everyone seems to know how desperate the current situation of the dynasty is. Danlong is not a friend, but he is the only ally that can cooperate now.

It's not cold at high places, and the big trees attract the wind.

The Celestial Dynasty has been king in the Central Plains for hundreds of years, and has gone through many changes of dynasties and battles on the battlefield to achieve everything it has today. How can those small and petty countries compare?

Liang Huanqing is Liang Fengmian's daughter. She has been exposed to these things since she was a child. She is patriotic, loyal to the emperor, and defends the country at all costs, just like when Liang Fengmian was guarding the border. Her courage and courage are really admired by everyone.

Liang Huanqing was still a little entangled at this time, but there were countless matters in the court before him, and Shen Shu and Ji Ziqi were standing in front of him.

She closed her eyes, and the scenes on both sides were vividly before her eyes.

She had to make a choice, whether to tell Shen Shu and Ji Ziqi about this incident, or to pretend that nothing had happened and let them continue like this.

Now Qi Jingqin seems to have made a plan in his heart. He seems to have thought about how to use this matter to negotiate terms with the Celestial Empire. When he said those words to Liang Huanqing, he seemed to be confirming that Liang Huanqing was born in a general's palace.

, this is a portal that is loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and will definitely make the most rational choice among them.

But at this time, she was unwilling to take the two paths in front of her. If she chose to listen to Qi Jingqin, she would not be able to control some things in the future. She didn't know what Qi Jingqin was going to do. If Ji Ziqi had to pay the price with his life

, how should Liang Huanqing face Shen Shu?

But if Shen Shu and Ji Ziqi are chosen, then when the time comes to negotiate terms with Danlong, in this year of plague, drought and floods, normal taxes are already crushing the backbone of the poor people. If Danlong opens his mouth again,

, the national treasury is already insufficient, how can we satisfy them?

Such behavior does not concern the common people, nor does it concern the heaven?

Unexpectedly, even if I am no longer behind the curtain to listen to politics, this kind of thing will still make me worried.

It’s really fate that plays a trick on people.

Yuebai didn't know what the Queen was worried about, but it seemed to be about many important things. When she heard her mention the Emperor, she also thought that the Emperor wanted to use this incident to make a fuss.

Seeing that the Queen was so troubled, Yuebai stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, there are some things that we don't have to worry about. We just let nature take its course. This is their own choice and has nothing to do with us."

What Yuebai said was that if Shen Shu and Ji Ziqi continued like this, the Queen would stay out of the matter and wouldn't have to bear so much psychological burden.

Liang Huanqing looked at her, knowing that Yuebai said such things for her own good, and he did not blame her: "But... Concubine Shen still spoke for me at the beginning, how can I stay out of this kind of thing now?" …”

Yue Bai was also very grateful to Empress Dowager Shen for being willing to speak for the empress when she was in trouble, which led to her current situation of getting out of trouble, but there were some things that had to be chosen.

"Empress, if Danlong and us don't come to an agreement this time, it will be the young master who goes on the expedition next time..." Yuebai persuaded softly.

Yuebai's intention was very obvious, that is, he wanted the queen to follow the emperor's wishes. The emperor was still the emperor after all. Liang Huanqing would be childless for the rest of his life, so he wanted to rely on the emperor's favor.

Yuebai is thinking about the future of the Queen. Besides, if the war in the north is not settled, or if Danrong puts forward high conditions, it will be unfortunate for both the country and the people.

Then the only one who is going to fight next is Liang Ji, and only Liang Ji can stabilize the current situation, so it has to be him.

Liang Huanqing, like Qi Jingqin, has only one blood relative in this world...

But even so, Liang Huanqing still had some worries: "But... the concubine said she would speak for the Celestial Empire, and Danxi would not make too many demands. I heard that the envoy on this mission was the concubine. My eldest brother, the eldest prince of Danxiang. If the concubine were to lobby, I guess there wouldn’t be too much of a condition, right?”

Liang Huanqing thought about this matter with a sense of luck. He thought it was because he had not been exposed to the affairs of the court for too long, so he developed a benevolent woman in the harem.

At this time, Yuebai seemed to have a little more sense than the Empress. She said: "Empress, the eldest prince is here for Danlong. What's the use of the concubine's lobbying? It can't change too many problems. Besides, you and the princess were entrusted by the Dowager Empress to do this from the very beginning. If you don’t have the heart to repay the favor, the emperor will know about it, and you won’t be able to help yourself when the time comes.”

Liang Huanqing frowned. She really didn't know how to make this decision.

Yuebai said again: "My Lady, if you are still listening to politics behind the curtain, what should you choose?"

Liang Huanqing thought of those ministers, Qin Yuandao and Liang Ji. Those loyal ministers were all doing things for the benefit of the country.

The same should be true for yourself.

"I understand." After a long time, as if after careful consideration, Liang Huanqing stood up expressionlessly and said, "Go back to the palace."

Yuebai knew that the Empress had already made a weighing and choice in her heart, so she followed the Empress back to the palace.

*

At this time, everyone in Qianning Palace had no idea what Liang Huanqing did when he went to Qinzheng Palace, what happened, and whether the result went smoothly or not was what everyone was worried about.

"Why haven't you come back after so long?" Qi Wangshu looked out the door anxiously.

Liang Ji held her down and said, "Princess, please calm down for a while, it will make your eyes dizzy just looking at her."

Qi Wangshu then sat down and said worriedly: "If the emperor's sister-in-law is ignored by the emperor's brother again because of this matter, I don't know who else can help her."

Only then did Liang Huanqing regain his favor. The emperor was moody. In the past, he always wanted a Prince Jing who would never give up until his goal was achieved. Now that he has become the emperor, he is even more strict with himself.

Qi Wangshu thought that if Qi Jingqin knew about this, he would definitely blame Liang Huanqing.

At that time, all available methods have been used, but what should we do?

Ji Ziqi had a hint of apology on his face at this time and said: "It's all because of the bad ministers, and the queen and princess have been harmed."

Qi Wangshu was careless, only worried about Liang Huanqing, and did not expect to hurt Ji Ziqi.

She shook her head and said: "We are not helping you, mainly because Mrs. Shen... did not let you meet this time, and she made such a big mistake. She is really shameless."

Liang Ji looked at them and asked, "Ziqi, have you ever thought about what to do in the future?"

Ji Ziqi fell in love with Shen Shu. She fell in love at first sight and could never forget her.

But in this case, how can Shen Shu's status allow them to grow old together?

If you knew from the beginning that it was a futile effort, why continue?

Ji Ziqi smiled helplessly and said: "Now it's just a matter of taking one step at a time. When I come to Shangjing this time, I can see Shen Shu and die without regrets. I am an orphan. When my uncle heard that there was trouble in the court, it was Liang Fengmian who Liang Huanqing, the daughter of the general, listens to the government behind the curtain as the queen, and specially asked me to participate in this year's imperial examination. After the emperor came back, I thought that there was no place for me to use it, and thought about returning to Taiyuan County soon, but after meeting Shen Shu, I I want to stay here.

I have no worries to begin with. After my parents died, I was all alone. If I could enjoy a moment of joy in the last moment of my life, the words "die without regrets" can quite describe my mood at this time. If it was because of the beginning I know that my efforts are in vain and I will end up with no results. I am afraid that I will regret it greatly in my next life."

When Ji Ziqi said this, Liang Ji finally understood why he suddenly appeared in the palace examination. Almost no one knew him, and he appeared out of thin air. It turned out that there was such a connection.

I don't know why, but the relationship between Ji Ziqi and Shen Shu set a sad tone from the beginning. Those who heard it were sad and those who heard it shed tears. They just hoped that the two of them could be safe and sound.

"The Queen is back."

At this time, Liang Huanqing and Yue Bai came back from Qinzheng Hall.

Everyone rushed out of the door. Liang Ji and Ji Ziqi clasped their fists and said, "Wei ministers pay their respects to the Queen."

Liang Huanqing waved his hands tiredly and said, "There is no need to perform such a grand ceremony."

Even though I say this, the basic etiquette of a monarch and his ministers still needs to be maintained.

Liang Huanqing walked in, and Qi Wangshu followed beside him and said, "Sister-in-law, what happened?"

Before Liang Huanqing could sit down and take a breath, they couldn't wait to know what had just happened.

Liang Huanqing didn't want to explain too much. After sitting down, Yuebai brought a heater for her to warm her hands. After taking a sip of hot tea, she said: "Tang Xue, go to the Longevity Palace to invite Concubine Shen. "

"ah?"
