Yun Shang saw her slightly pale face in Xia Huanyu's pupils, and the shock on her face was obvious. Yun Shang quickly calmed down her expression, silently picked up the black chess piece that had just fallen, and then raised her eyes again.
Lai looked at Xia Huanyu, his voice was slow and powerful.
"I heard that my father only doted on my mother, and against all opinions, my mother was the only one in the entire harem. After my mother's accident, my father also had the intention of abdicating the throne and looking for my mother. My father did not know whether my mother was alive or dead.
, you can do it this way, not to mention that now Chang'er is still a living person, and it is not something that only my father can do if he wants a beauty but not a country."
Xia Huanyu's eyes gradually deepened a little, and he chuckled. There seemed to be a bit of self-deprecation, a bit of sarcasm, and some unknown emotions in that laughter.
"Sure enough, like father, like son." Xia Huanyu said, but his voice was somewhat cold.
"Do you want to bring your favorite tea set?" Hua Ling walked out and asked softly.
Xia Huanyu calmed down the indifferent expression on his face, and when he turned his head, a gentle smile appeared on his face: "Take it with you, just put it in the carriage. If you have nothing to do, give birth to a baby in the carriage."
There is a stove and you can make tea.”
Hua Ling glanced at the palace maid behind him, who quickly responded, turned around and entered the inner hall again.
While Hua Ling was there, Xia Huanyu and Yun Shang unanimously changed the topic of conversation and only talked about ordinary things.
After Luo Qingyan finished handling the political affairs, he went directly to the Taihe Palace. The family of four had a meal together and regarded it as a farewell to Xia Huanyu and Hua Ling.
After dinner, the sky turned completely dark. Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan walked to Weiyang Palace together. Yun Shang thought of what Xia Huanyu said over and over again in her mind, and what she heard Luo Qingyan say to Liu Yinfeng yesterday.
Those who are feeling a little confused.
In the current situation, between abdicating the throne and adopting a concubine, one must choose one of the two.
Yun Shang bit her lip and asked Luo Qingyan to abdicate. She would feel guilty towards Luo Qingyan. But if Luo Qingyan was asked to take a concubine, she would not be able to accept it no matter what, unless she left Luo Qingyan.
Between guilt and leaving, her choice is self-evident.
Yun Shang secretly clenched her hands in her sleeves. Just as Ning Qian said, she had been planning for Luo Qingyan. This time, let her be selfish for a while.
Yun Shang was startled when her hand was suddenly pulled, and she turned her head.
Luo Qingyan's eyes looked a little deep under the weak light of the lantern, and he was staring at her intently.
Yun Shang suddenly came back to her senses: "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
Luo Qingyan frowned and looked at Yun Shang for a while before saying, "I should ask you this. You look restless, but what happened?"
Yun Shang was silent for a long time, feeling a little hesitant in her heart. Since she had decided to be selfish, she should tell the truth. Moreover, he was the one who hid the decision he made.
Luo Qingyan saw Yun Shang lowered his head and didn't speak for a long time, so he sighed softly and said: "If you don't want to say..."
Before he finished speaking, Yun Shang suddenly raised his head: "The Emperor knows it."
Seeing that Luo Qingyan still had some doubts in his eyes, Yun Shang explained: "The Supreme Emperor knows that I can no longer have children and Bao'er. Previously, he said that I should not ruin the Xia Kingdom for my own selfishness.
"
Luo Qingyan trembled slightly when he heard this, and his face gradually turned cold: "You don't have to..."
Yun Shang knew that he was trying to comfort her, so she cut off his words again and softened her voice a little: "Yesterday, I heard everything you and Liu Yinfeng said when they were drunk in the study room of Taiji Hall.
.”
Luo Qingyan suddenly became quiet.
Yun Shang didn't wait for his response, she turned around and walked forward step by step in silence.
After a long time, I heard Luo Qingyan's footsteps gradually catching up with me. Then, Luo Qingyan's words rang in my ears: "I know you must have been very unhappy during this time, but we are husband and wife.
, Husband and wife are one body, so we should deal with it together. A few days ago, I was afraid that you didn't have the heart to listen to this, so I didn't tell you. I've thought of three ways at the moment."
Yun Shang didn't turn her head or respond, she just listened quietly.
"The first way, naturally what I hope most, is to find a ghost doctor as soon as possible and cure you and Bao'er. In that case, all obstacles will no longer exist. The second way is to
I abdicated the throne and let Liu Yinfeng ascend the throne. Although Liu Yinfeng was not very willing to be the emperor, Xia Houjing was really not suitable to be the emperor. If I handed the throne to him, the Xia Kingdom would be destroyed. Liu Yinfeng
I still believe in Feng’s talent and ability. Although I wanted the throne before, it was just because life without you was too boring, and power was the only way to numb myself. Now that I have you, the throne is different from what you want.
Compared to that, it’s insignificant.”
Luo Qingyan paused.
"The last method is also the worst situation. If the ghost doctor cannot cure you and Bao'er, and something goes wrong with Liu Yinfeng again."
Luo Qingyan took Yun Shang's hand and asked her to turn around and look at Luo Qingyan.
"I hope that even in this situation, you will not give up, don't think about getting a concubine for me, and don't leave me. No matter how severe the storm is, if we join hands together, there will be no threshold that cannot be crossed. I will make people quickly
Start laying the groundwork in the Xia Kingdom and let all the secret guards do some good deeds in your name. Let the people know that their current queen is a kind queen who truly cares for the people. In that way, no matter who wants to move
You also need to consider the thoughts of thousands of people. Maybe you may suffer some grievances before you gain momentum, but no matter what kind of grievance it is, I will suffer it with you."
Yun Shang had already burst into tears, bit her lip, turned around and fell into Luo Qingyan's arms. She was so lucky to have met such a man in this life. He always thought about her and respected her in everything.
No matter what happened, even facing the position of being the most respected person in the world, she never let go of her hand.
How could she give up so easily with such a man?
"Okay, no matter how difficult this road is, as long as you don't let go of my hand, I will never let go of you." Yun Shang's voice was choked with sobs.
Under the illumination of the lantern, Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan stood hugging each other, their shadows stretched long.
Xia Huanyu and Hua Ling left Jincheng the next day.
Everything seemed to have become very peaceful. Above the court and in the inner palace, Yun Shang felt that there was a bigger storm hidden under the calm.
While Yun Shang was secretly on guard, she began to clean up various matters in the harem. Ning Qian was right, she needed to think about her own well-being. Luo Qingyan had made three preparations, so she had to make plans as well.
Yun Shang cooperated with Xue Yan's prescription to replenish his body, and took the initiative to send secret guards to find the ghost doctor.
If Luo Qingyan abdicates, it is easy to say that with their current power, they can live a prosperous life wherever they want.
If Luo Qingyan does not abdicate, then she must first ensure that the harem is completely under her control. This harem is her foothold, and even the land under her feet has not been fenced.
How can we resist external storms?
Yun Shang was going to start with two things. The first one was Li Fuhua's case. After she got the painting from Li Qianmo, she didn't pay too much attention to that case. However, there was still something wrong with that case.
Some very critical doubts.
That painting must have been done deliberately by someone, as if it was constantly guiding her to find out about that matter. From the discovery of Li Fuhua's body in Luoxue Pavilion to the appearance of the painting, it was clearly a set-up, but that
Who is the person who set up the trap and what is his purpose? But now she has no idea. That person also knows her very well. It is also very dangerous to have such a person hiding around her.
The second thing is the people's aspirations of the few people in charge of the harem. Li Fuhua's incident just sounded the alarm for them. She still needs an opportunity, an opportunity to gather at least half of those people.
above.
If it cannot be used by me, it can only be killed by me.
Yun Shang bit her lip secretly, and drew a circle with her hand. The first one would be Qi Ruihai. Qi Ruihai was in charge of all the people in the harem, he was a smart man, and he knew how to judge the situation.
smart people.
There are only two ways to communicate with smart people, one is to give in to what they like, and the other is to let him understand that choosing her is the general trend.
Yun Shang pondered for a moment. Now she couldn't decide which one to use, so she could only test it.
"Qinyi's main focus is now on the affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. You are the only one in Weiyang Palace and it is difficult to support yourself. You should send someone to invite Qi Ruihai." Yun Shang turned his head and looked at Qianzui,
He ordered softly.
Qian Zui agreed with a smile, then went out and asked Qing Hao to go to the inner chamber for a run.
Qian Zui turned back and said softly: "The secret guard sent news earlier that the Supreme Emperor and the Queen Mother had left Jin'an City, but they did not go in the direction of Liu Cang, but went to the northwest."
"Northwest?" Yun Shang frowned, with some confusion in her eyes. Xia Huanyu's move was somewhat different from what she had imagined, but why did he go to the northwest?
Yun Shang stood up, walked to the map and stood in front of it. He lightly traced the map with his hand, northwest, Mingyi City, Luoyin City, Huaiyin City, Lingxi City.
Huaiyin, Lingxi.
Yun Shang's hand paused slightly, these two places...
Zhao Yingjie is here.
Could it be that Hua Ling and Xia Huanyu went to Lingxi to visit Zhao Yingjie because she was so homesick for her son? This may not be impossible, but is Xia Huanyu really leaving the palace just to travel around with Hua Ling?
Yun Shang shook her head, feeling a little uncertain for the first time in her heart.
She found that she was really confused about Xia Huanyu, just like she had never thought about how Xia Huanyu knew that she was infertile and Baoer was mentally retarded. (To be continued)
