"Looking at the way the Fourth Prince is doing now, do you really only want beauty and not the country?"
Hearing these words, Mu Qingyuan paused slightly, turned around and looked at the man in snow clothes walking over. He frowned and said displeasedly: "What do you mean by that?"
Yan Lingxiao stepped forward, gently shook his folding fan, and said calmly: "It seems that the Fourth Prince doesn't know yet. The Emperor of Dongyue is now seriously ill and unconscious. The Fourth Prince saw off his bride, and the Sixth Prince disappeared. Now the entire palace is empty.
The next second prince is here, I'm afraid he will establish the throne soon."
His father is seriously ill? Mu Qingyuan had an expression of disbelief on his face. He clenched his hands suddenly. How could it happen so suddenly? He looked at Yan Lingxiao and his eyebrows darkened. Could it be that he was making some conspiracy again?
"It seems that the Fourth Prince doesn't believe it anymore?" Yan Lingxiao raised her eyebrows, looked at Mu Qingyuan, and continued, "But I think the Queen of Dongyue and the Queen Mother will send people to look for you soon. However, in the Fourth Prince
In the heart of the prince, which one is more important, the throne, or the Yun Yan who may have died?"
Mu Qingyuan's expression froze. Does the dead Yunyan compare with the throne? He raised his eyes and looked at Yan Lingxiao, frowned and said: "What on earth do you want to say? Whether or not I inherit the throne seems to have nothing to do with you.
.”
"How could it not be related? You and I are destined to be together, and our hearts are tied to the same person. Unfortunately, we both lost at the hands of this person in the end. We are in the same boat. If you succeed to the throne, we, Nan Yao and Dong Yue, will join hands to fight against each other.
When the time comes, we will surely be able to make the Snowland Kingdom surrender and also make the surrounding tribes surrender, wouldn’t it be great?!" Yan Lingxiao said with a smile, a hint of treachery flashed in his eyes.
Hearing this, Mu Qingyuan frowned slightly and was about to speak, but at this moment, a man dressed in black rode his horse forward. He reined in the reins, jumped off the horse, walked quickly to him, knelt down and said:
"Your Majesty, my subordinates just met someone sent by the palace in front."
Someone sent from the palace? Hearing this, Mu Qingyuan's brows deepened. He looked at Xiao Yao and whispered, "What did he say?"
"He said that the emperor is seriously ill. Now, the Queen Mother has urgently summoned you back." Xiao Yao said respectfully, but he unconsciously looked at the man in front of him. He had also heard about the previous things, Yun Yan
And the Sixth Prince, are they really dead? He wanted to ask, but in the current situation, even if he asked, the Fourth Prince would not tell him.
Is he really seriously ill? Mu Qingyuan's eyes suddenly widened and he looked at Xiao Yao. His eyebrows were deeply knitted and his eyebrows were full of solemnity. In this way, the situation in Liangdu is not optimistic now, Mu Kexiang
Still there, thinking of this, he walked forward quickly.
"I am here to wish the Fourth Prince a great success." Yan Lingxiao looked at the figure in front of him who was leaving in a hurry and said with a smile.
Hearing these words, Mu Qingyuan suddenly stopped in his steps. He turned around and looked at Yan Lingxiao with an indifferent expression, "There is no need to wish me in advance. If I really succeed to the throne, we will definitely be on the same page.
You just said that we were all defeated by one person. You were wrong. This king was really defeated by her hands, but you, you are not even qualified to be defeated by her hands, because a person like you is not worthy.
"After he finished speaking, he glanced at the cliff not far away, his brows furrowed slightly, and after being silent for a while, he raised his feet and walked forward directly.
Xiao was about to stand up and looked at the departing figure in front of him. A trace of surprise flashed across his expression. It seemed that at this moment, the Fourth Prince was different from before. He couldn't tell where it was, but he just had this feeling. He turned around
He glanced at Yan Lingxiao, frowned slightly, and then walked forward with the others.
"Master, are you going to let them leave like this?" Shang Tan looked at Mu Qingyuan and others leaving in front and said in a low voice.
However, his words seemed to be lost in the ocean, and the people around him did not give any response.
Shang Tan was slightly suspicious and turned his head to look at Yan Lingxiao. His expression became more and more confused. What happened to the master?
"Am I not worthy?" Yan Lingxiao looked forward, her voice low and cold, and her handsome face looked dark and scary.
Hearing this, Shang Tan was slightly startled and looked at Yan Lingxiao in surprise.
At this time, Yan Lingxiao looked at Shang Tan with a cold face, and continued: "Tell me, what is it about me that I am unworthy of? They dare to say that I am unworthy. I appreciate her talent, and I want her to help me win.
The world, I promised her the world, where did I go wrong?"
However, it was you who forced her to death with your own hands. Shang Tan looked at Yan Lingxiao and sighed in his heart, when could the master be so stubborn on one person, and what exactly did he think of her, just to let her
Should you stay by his side and help him conquer the world?
"Ji Lengxue asked me, what is she to me? Oh, nature is just my tool to conquer the world. I give her fame and fortune, and barter, isn't it just in line with her seventh son's requirements? Why does she keep rejecting me?
"The anger in Yan Lingxiao's heart seemed to burst out all of a sudden. He looked ahead angrily, his eyes as fierce as a cheetah's.
Since it is just a tool, why should the master be so angry? Shang Tan lowered his head and frowned slightly. However, if he really had an interest in the Seventh Young Master, he would not be so careless about her life and death. But now, why is he so angry?
Being angry over a dead man is not something a master would do.
"Immediately send an order to search this cliff. We will definitely find the bodies of Yun Yan and Mu Jingnan." Yan Lingxiao suddenly took a few steps forward, with his back to Shang Tan, and said coldly.
Looking at the lonely figure in front of him, Shang Tan's heart sank slightly, and he respectfully said, "Yes!" As he said that, he gestured to the men in black around him, and they immediately dispersed.
After everyone dispersed, only Yan Lingxiao's figure remained in the same place. He looked at the cliff in the distance, his handsome face gradually became silent, as if he was thinking about something.
——
Royal Palace, Kangnyeong Palace
In the side hall, there was no one else except Queen Mother Gao, who was kneeling in front of the Buddha statue. The majesty of the past seemed to have disappeared at this moment. Her withered face looked indescribably lonely. She closed her eyes, and the prayer beads in her hand were
He moved in sequence and muttered words.
At this time, a dark shadow slowly approached in the hall. Looking at the Empress Dowager Gao kneeling in front of the Buddha, Grandma Yulian shook her head and couldn't help but sigh in her heart. The Empress Dowager had been kneeling here all morning. No matter how she tried to persuade her, she would
She refused to get up. Who said she didn't love the emperor? It's a pity that the years of fighting in the palace have made her numb, making her unable to express her love. Just because the people in this palace cannot tolerate half of love.
Even if it is the relationship between mother and child.
"Queen Mother, how can you bear such a heavy body? Let your slaves help you in to rest." Aunt Yulian took a step forward, knelt down beside Queen Mother Gao, and persuaded her.
Empress Dowager Gao opened her eyes slightly, and a light flashed through her cloudy eyes. She said lightly: "How did you go about the things that the Ai family asked you to do?"
After hearing this, Aunt Yulian nodded and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I have found a reliable person to look for you. I believe there will be news soon. You don't have to worry."
"Worried, do you think the Ai family should be worried?" Empress Dowager Gao glanced at Aunt Yulian and wanted to stand up. However, her legs and feet were a little numb from kneeling for a long time, which was not convenient.
On the side, Aunt Yulian looked at the slight change in Empress Dowager Gao's face and said quickly: "I said the wrong thing. I will help you go in to rest." After saying that, she helped Empress Dowager Gao up and helped her go inside.
Went to the palace.
Entering the inner hall, Empress Dowager Gao walked on the couch. She took a sip of the tea handed over by Grandma Yulian, and then asked: "Has there been any change in the court?"
"Now everyone is waiting for the return of the Fourth Prince. As for the Sixth Prince, because of his past behavior and his appearance, there are very few people who support him, but there are quite a few people who support the Second Prince.
Your Majesty, Yun Xiang's side is now peaceful." Aunt Yulian took the tea cup from Empress Dowager Gao's hand and replied.
Hearing these words, Queen Mother Gao frowned slightly, her eyes sank, and she whispered: "Keep an eye on Yun Mocheng. As for Mu Kexiang, the Ai family has underestimated him."
Aunt Yulian glanced at Empress Dowager Gao and said, "The Second Prince has made many military exploits in the frontiers in recent years. Compared with the Fourth Prince and the Sixth Prince, his image in the hearts of the people will be higher."
With a slight snort, Empress Dowager Gao said coldly: "Even so, so what? He is just a slave, so there is nothing to be afraid of. If he dares to do any wrongdoing, the Ai family will never spare him."
"Yes." Aunt Yulian said respectfully, but as if she thought of something, she lowered her voice and said, "Now that the fourth prince has been appointed as the crown prince, what does the Queen Mother plan to do with the sixth prince?"
After hearing this, Queen Mother Gao's eyes suddenly fell on Aunt Yulian, and then she looked coldly ahead, "Do you want to plead for Mu Jingnan? What benefits did he give you?"
Aunt Yulian was startled, her face changed drastically, she quickly knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, I have no other intention."
"You have been with the Aijia for so many years. How come the Aijia doesn't understand your thoughts?" Empress Dowager Gao's expression softened slightly and she glanced at Aunt Yulian who was kneeling on the ground. "Okay, get up."
After hearing this, Aunt Yulian felt a little relieved. She stood up and said with a smile: "The Queen Mother's majesty is still the same as before. She really shocked this slave."
"You, you are still the same as before. The Aijia said that you don't have to kneel down to the Aijia. Without you, the Aijia would not be what it is today. The Aijia has accepted your love to this day, but has never been able to help you find a good wife.
The Ai family is sorry for delaying you until today." Empress Dowager Gao took Sister Yulian's hand and sighed.
Shaking her head slightly, Aunt Yulian said with a smile: "It is my blessing to be by the Queen Mother's side."
Nodding, Empress Dowager Gao no longer dwelled on this issue. She looked forward with far-reaching eyes, "Mu Jingnan is a remnant of the Dugu family. How could the Ai family be willing to let him go? If it weren't for the Dugu family, how could the late emperor be so...
He has gone long ago, but sometimes the Ai family has to thank the Dugu family. Without them, how would the Ai family be able to achieve its current status?"
"Then what do you mean, Queen Mother..." Aunt Yulian was startled and whispered.
Empress Dowager Gao sneered, "Now that Yuan'er is about to be established as the prince, let's let the Aijia see what Mu Jingnan is and how he can defeat the Aijia and win the crown prince's position." However, there was something in her eyes.
His stern look seemed to dissipate at this moment, and it seemed that he had more expectations.
