"Rou'er, please don't walk around in front of the Ai family. You will make the Ai family become upset." In the Chuhua Palace, a maid rubbed the Empress Dowager's shoulders.
The Queen Mother has been in a good mood these days. Since that day, after taking the bottle of elixir sent by Lie Rou, the Queen Mother feels that her complexion is getting better and better day by day.
The appearance in Qionghua Garden just now also allowed her to win back her old face. Especially after she heard about the unknown fire in Youtan Palace, the Queen Mother felt even more comfortable when she thought of the disgraceful appearance of the concubine.
The Queen Mother had so much affection for Yue Jinghua that it could not be said that she had much affection for her. She just cared for the Lie family and her daughter secretly because she was thinking about Feng Wanwan's kindness back then.
As for Fa Xiaoyi's marriage, she really wanted to facilitate it, not only to give Yue Jinghua the title of princess, but also to prevent Fa Xiaoyi from taking the opportunity to get involved with other forces.
How could the simple-minded Lierou understand the thoughts of the Queen Mother and the Emperor?
"There has been no news from Hua'er and Chen'er. Rou'er wants to go out and have a look." After being sent back by Fa Xiaoyi, Lie Rou had no news about her children. Although someone had just come to report that the gangsters from Youlian Palace had been arrested.
She was repelled, but she was still restless.
"Stop working blindly. The palace is so big and you, a woman, will only cause trouble. The Ai family wants to ask you something, Rou'er. That bastard Yuenian has been missing for several years. Do you have any plans?" The Queen Mother?
He pulled Lierou cordially and asked.
"Plan? Why did the adoptive mother suddenly ask these questions?" Lierou wondered.
"Rou'er, I'm from the Ai family. If your children live up to their expectations, you will still be able to enjoy a happy life in the future. But Minzhi is still guarding Long Warring States, and your youngest son is not considerate. As for Jinghua, he will get married sooner or later.
Out. Your two uncles are not generous people. A woman’s face is the least valuable thing in the world. While you are still young and beautiful, you should make good plans for yourself. Otherwise, in the future, your
What should you do after the twins get married?" The Queen Mother said meaningfully, she still somewhat cherished Lierou, her goddaughter.
"Foster mother, what are you talking about? No matter what the outside world says, I always believe that Yuenian will not leave us behind. He is still alive. He must be still alive. He will definitely come back to me and the children."
Lierou looked excited.
Over the years, this curse-like name has always been Lie Rou’s counterattack.
It's just that she never mentioned the month and year easily in front of her children, but every time in the dead of night, Lierou would always think of the man who left without saying goodbye.
"Silly boy, you are still deceiving yourself. If he came back, why didn't he send you a letter? If he had feelings for you, why did he leave without saying goodbye in the first place? If a man's heart changes, everything will be different.
It's all in vain, you listen to my mother's advice, if you meet your beloved, you can just commit yourself to him for the rest of your life." After the Queen Mother said this, she glanced outside the palace.
"The Emperor has arrived -" After a long final voice, Fa Xiaoyun, the king of the Shang Kingdom, walked in with a man dressed as a military general.
Behind them were Yue Chen and Hong Ling.
"Everyone, please get up. The assassins of Youlian Palace have been repulsed by General Tianwei. Young Master Yue has also been brought back. As for Miss Yue, she is currently a guest in Sha Fei's Palace. Mrs. Yue does not need to worry too much," just now
Every word of what the Queen Mother and Madam Yue said fell into Fa Xiaoyun's ears.
Although Fa Xiaoyun and Fa Xiaoyi are brothers, they are not much alike in appearance. Fa Xiaoyi has a dignified appearance and a noble air.
Although Fa Xiaoyun is a noble king, his appearance is just ordinary. It is no wonder that when he was young, he bullied and insulted Fa Xiaoyi many times.
Fa Xiaoyun has a narrow face and is not a very generous person at first glance. Since the fall of Lie Roufu's family, he has not paid much attention to Lie Rou, but today he gave good advice, and Lie Rou couldn't help but feel a little flattered.
Say thanks with your mouth.
Looking at Yue Chen again, I saw that Xiao Zhengtai's lips were pursed tightly, her little face was tense, and Hong Ling was also a little embarrassed.
What makes the masters and servants of the Yue family so uneasy is the middle-aged man who is only a few steps away from Lierou.
The Queen Mother's Palace is an inner palace. Except for the men of the royal family, ordinary male family members are not allowed to enter. Not to mention, the palace is such an important place that weapons are not allowed to enter. However, this man is dressed in armor and has a big sword on his waist.
There is a ferocious lion's mouth on the handle of the knife, and there are six iron rings on the back of the knife.
I saw that when he walked, his steps were calm, and the six iron rings as big as bells made no sound.
Even a woman like Lie Rou, who was inexperienced in foreign affairs, guessed that this person's Xuan Gong cultivation was not weak.
Just as Lierou was wondering about the identity of this person, the middle-aged man stepped forward and said to Lierou very flatteringly: "This must be the only daughter of elder brother Lie, Chang Gong Lie, Miss Lieroulie."
.”
The man spoke with a booming voice, and the short beard on his face was obviously carefully trimmed, and he looked quite decent. Only those eyes, with a bit of inquiry, looked at Lierou from head to toe.
Lierou was already married, but he kept calling her Miss Lie.
Such a title made Lierou a little unhappy.
"Rou'er," the Queen Mother glanced at Fa Xiaoyun, obviously knowing her son's intentions, "The Ai family came to introduce me. This is Qin Gang, the mighty general of Tianwei. He is a famous general in the Shang Kingdom.
He is also a master at the peak of Tianxuan."
Qin Gang's eyes were blazing, as if they were glued to Lie Rou's face.
Lierou frowned unconsciously.
In the eyes of many people in the Shang Kingdom, Lierou was a fool who had been waiting for several years for a playboy whose whereabouts were unknown.
Lierou never defends herself, but just because she pretends to be stupid doesn't mean she is really stupid.
Fa Xiaoyun's sudden introduction and the Queen Mother's disguised question of whether she had any intention of remarrying were all testing her, so how could she not know.
There were eyes all over her body, all focused on Lierou. She wanted to speak, but she didn't know how. At this moment, she felt very helpless.
Hong Ling was a little anxious when she saw Madam suffering. However, in this moment, as a slave, she couldn't speak carelessly, so she could only feel anxious.
"My mother is already married. When a girl marries her husband, the general should call her Mrs. Yue." Yue Chen, who rarely spoke, suddenly spoke. Her voice was low and a little timid, but she spoke clearly.
Let everyone in the room hear it clearly.
"Chen'er," Lierou was so surprised that she covered her mouth.
Hong Ling also had a look of disbelief on her face, "Young Master!"
Qin Gang's expression changed slightly, and Fa Xiaoyun also looked embarrassed. The Queen Mother coughed slightly and laughed and cursed: "This kid is really quick to talk now."
"Mom, I want to go back," Yue Chen said softly. He tugged on Lierou's clothes. He was only a ten-year-old child, so there was nothing wrong with being a little temperamental.
Lierou breathed a long sigh of relief, her heart was full and swollen, and the tip of her nose couldn't help but feel sore for a while.
This child calls her mother for the first time.
The already shaky body suddenly regained its strength at this moment. Lierou stood up and saluted, with firm eyes and a sincere voice, "Since Lierou got married, she has changed her husband's surname. I hope you will continue to use it in the future."
Mrs. Yue matches her well. Senior Qin's name was often mentioned by Lierou when he was a child. My father said that among the mysterious practitioners of the Shang Kingdom, the one who became famous earliest was Senior Qin. Compared with you, he can only be regarded as
A rising star. When I meet him today, I can see that the senior’s magnanimity is indeed extraordinary.”
Lierou's words sounded very polite at first. But when they fell into Qin Gang's ears, they were both overt praise and covert criticism. He was as sarcastic as he was armed with a gun and a stick.
If Yue Jinghua were here, he would probably put it bluntly, that is, you are worthy enough to be my father, but you still have the nerve to give my mother a naughty idea.
Qin Gang, although said to be incompetent, has some real abilities. He is a typical late-blooming mysterious person. Until he was forty years old, he was only a captain in the Shang Kingdom's army.
But just after he turned forty, by chance, he got a copy of the mysterious skills formula of the Earth Xuan level, the Overlord Sword Technique. After practicing this set of sword techniques, his cultivation level improved by leaps and bounds, from Yuxuan level to
Dixuan.
Later, under the cultivation of the Shang royal family, he advanced all the way to Tianxuan.
Compared with the two major powers in the Eastern Continent, the Shang State did not have any masters in the Dan Realm, so Qin Gang was hired as the Heavenly Protector of the Shang State. In the Shang State, he could be said to be inferior to a few people but above ten thousand people.
.
The so-called keeping warm and thinking about sex, Qin Gang is also a martial arts fanatic. In his early years, because of his unsatisfactory career, he practiced Xuan Kung hard and delayed his marriage. When he became successful and famous, his eyes were too high, and ordinary women could not see him.
Eye-catching.
In terms of age, he is already an old man in his seventies or eighties. It is only because of his cultivation that he maintains the appearance of a middle-aged man, and he even has the idea of lierou.
The origin of the matter also originated from the night a few days ago, when Lierou entered the palace to offer pills and was accidentally seen by Qin Gang who entered the palace.
That night, when he caught a glimpse of Lierou's beautiful, frowning, elegant and unparalleled appearance, he was really shocked.
So, Qin Gang immediately inquired about Lie Rou's origins and heard that she was the adopted daughter of the Queen Mother. After losing her husband for several years, she only stayed in Liejia Castle. He immediately discussed with Fa Xiaoyun about marrying Lie Rou.
meaning.
Lie Rou's words at the moment undoubtedly rejected Qin Gang's kindness in one fell swoop.
Qin Gang's face darkened when he saw Lie Rou pulling Yue Chen and Hong Ling out in a hurry.
Seeing this, the Queen Mother sighed softly and said quietly: "Rou'er looks gentle, but in fact she is a fiery person. When she insisted on being with Yuenian, no one could stop her. I'm afraid this matter will still happen.
We have to put it off until later. Unless we get the exact information about Yuenian's life and death, I'm afraid Rou'er won't compromise." The Queen Mother knew Lie Rou's temper very well. If she was really pushed into a hurry, she would have to be forced to the death.
But Fa Xiaoyun was not in a hurry: "Mom, you are wrong about this. Back then, Lierou was the apple of Liejiabao's eye. No one could do anything to her if she didn't want to. But it's different now.
She has a pair of worthless children under her knees. As the saying goes, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. There is no need for you or Qin Gang to come forward in this matter. Let the two old men of the Lie family deal with it first.
.”
When Qin Gang heard this, his face became a little happy again, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your advice. I understand."
