The news that His Majesty summoned King Nanyang to Beijing to defend himself spread like a strong wind from the day King Nanyang set out from Nanyang.
The King of Nanyang has not been to Beijing for eight years.
The reason for coming to Beijing this time was for Princess Anxiao's plot to murder the emperor's heir. The people were already paying attention to the developments in the capital and Nanyang. Now that His Majesty has summoned him, the King of Nanyang came to the capital to hear the order, which made the people's hearts suddenly rise.
.
Since the emperor issued the arrest warrant, all states, counties and counties in the world have been plastered with arrest notices, and they are still not removed. It shows how angry the emperor is? Now that King Nanyang has entered Beijing, will the emperor let him go and never return?
Compared with the worries of the people, the emperor heard that King Nanyang had set off for Beijing after receiving the imperial edict, and he was traveling lightly, only with some guards and no troops. The emperor's heart dropped for a month.
.
Since An Huajin returned to Nanyang, news about Nanyang City has been so tight that not even a trace can be spread. He is also afraid that the King of Nanyang is plotting a rebellion during this month.
He summoned Wang Anzhi to the palace more than once to discuss the matter. If Wang Anzhi had not told him with certainty that King Nanyang would not rebel, he only had a daughter from the Queen and a grandson from His Majesty the Seventh Highness. If he rebelled, wouldn't he have thought of His Majesty kidnapping the Queen and the Seventh Prince?
Your Highness is threatening him? He can't ignore the Queen and His Highness, right? It's unlikely given the character of King Nanyang.
The emperor felt that he was justified. He held the queen and Chu Yan in his hands, so he was naturally not afraid. And he could trust the character of King Nanyang all the time. But he was not afraid of ten thousand, just in case, so he still issued an order and ordered people to keep an eye on him.
Fengqi Palace and the Seventh Prince's Mansion.
The queen looked at the guards outside Fengqi Palace and sneered, and said to Aunt He, "Our Majesty, you have wasted the twenty years of marriage between me and him, and the whole life of virtue has been fed to the dogs."
Grandma He was startled and immediately covered the Queen's mouth regardless of her status, "My Lady, you must not say that, be careful that the walls have ears and it will reach His Majesty's ears."
The queen was disheartened, "Am I still afraid of being heard by him? How could I have failed him in all these years? My mistake was that I should not have listened to my father, and I should be a mother of the country who honors the world. In the end,
, to the point where he bullied me like this, even if I die in the future, I will not be with him..."
As the queen spoke, she suddenly paused and sneered, "I'm afraid he would rather be buried with the woman like Hua Siyu. That would be just right."
Aunt He sighed, "My dear, please relax, you still have His Majesty the Seventh Highness, you cannot fall. If you fall, what will the Seventh Highness do?"
"I will not fall. I will wait and see if he can kill all our An family members." The queen's eyes were filled with ice. "In the past twenty years, my father has been pampering him and letting him sit high and secure.
Only when he was holding the throne did he have the heart to plot and plot against his ministers. Now Nanyang has Xiao An'er in charge. Xiao An'er is not a good-tempered person, nor is he a forbearer, so he won't tolerate his bad habits. If one day, he provokes
She was so anxious that she sent troops to the capital. I wonder if he can still sit on the throne and be arrogant?"
"Mother, no matter how angry you are, don't say that. Our An family has always been loyal and loyal. As you said, how could it be beyond control?" Aunt He lowered her voice and said, "Don't think about yourself, think too much. I think of His Highness Seventh, His surname is Chu after all. I think the young princess is very kind to His Majesty Seventh. Of course, our Seventh Highness is also nice to the young Princess."
The queen fell silent and said after a moment, "It's all your Majesty's fault. If he hadn't insisted on asking his father to make a marriage contract between Xiao An'er and Gu Qingyan eight years ago, how could things have gotten to this point today? My Yan'er was also implicated. ”
Aunt He had nothing to say, "What the empress said is true, otherwise, why would the little princess come to Beijing? Stay in Nanyang well and find someone who doesn't need to be your wife, or someone who is closer. If you can get married and settle down, it will naturally be better." Okay. Nanyang Jun’s young general Shen Yuan and the young princess’s childhood sweethearts are the most suitable candidates. Have you forgotten? Eight years ago, the old prince once said with a sigh that he originally planned to wait until the children were older. I wanted to see if the little princess and General Shen could become a family. I didn’t expect to come to Beijing and make an engagement for her so early. I had no choice but to do so.”
The Queen snorted coldly, "I have recently calmed down and figured out a little bit of His Majesty's thoughts. His Majesty made a marriage contract for Xiao An'er and Gu Qingyan eight years ago. It was originally a good plan, but he didn't expect Xiao An. When my son grows up, he is so powerful. Little An'er is capable and capable. Although she is a girl, she is no less than a boy. She is like the An family, but not like the An family. She has all the strength and ambition of the An family. Yes, but she also has the rebelliousness that the An family does not have. Therefore, with Xiao An'er's temperament, if Your Majesty cannot control her now while she is young, will my father still be able to control her a hundred years from now?"
Grandma He was startled and blurted out, "Empress, what do you mean..."
"With Xiao An'er's temperament, everyone says that she grew up in the army and has a fierce temper. I'm afraid she doesn't have the rules of a lady. But what about Xiao An'er? Although she is indeed more powerful, you see her visiting the Gu family. When she was a guest, there was no one in the Gu family, old or young, who did not praise her. She could not only ride horses and shoot arrows at the border, but also go in and out of the halls of the Gu family's old house in the middle of the capital. Your Majesty did not expect such a powerful little An'er. He said, what would be the consequences if Gu Qingyan really married her? Your Majesty can't control her, and the Gu family is very powerful. Your Majesty is a very controlling person, how could he let such a thing happen? So, it happened that Shan Shan When the prince came to Beijing to speak for young prince Chen, his majesty had another idea. He planned to let Yan'er marry Xiao An'er. In this way, no matter how powerful a girl is, if she marries into the royal family, she will be a member of the royal family, so he doesn't have to worry. She is so powerful that she jumps out of the palm of her hand."
The more she listened, the more frightened Nanny He became, "Then if you put it this way, His Majesty has such deep thoughts, I'm afraid it won't be two days in a day."

"Well, since Xiao An'er beat up Chu Chen three years ago, His Majesty may have felt psychologically uncomfortable. However, he has not had much contact with Xiao An'er and feels that a little girl is not something to be afraid of. This year, Xiao An'er has passed the age of hairpin After the ceremony, His Majesty urged the eldest princess to arrange for her and Gu Qingyan to meet each other in the Qianqing Peach Garden. First, to test whether the two people, who seemed to have different personalities and family backgrounds, could see each other, and to take the opportunity to observe Xiao An'er. Can this person be controlled by Your Majesty? Later, I discovered that Xiao An'er was very close to Gu Qingyan, which felt bad. I also found that Xiao An'er was too powerful. She could see through such a powerful poison just by smelling it. She was poisoned to death. Later, Zhang Zaifu sent a large number of assassins to break into the An family's old house and assassinate her, but they failed. Later, and other things, everyone in the world said that Xiao An'er was powerful, and His Majesty naturally thought that she was powerful. Therefore, if she is so powerful, if If you can't be controlled by His Majesty, it's better to kill him."
Aunt He took a breath of cold air and said, "So, Your Majesty may have already taken the initiative to kill Xiaojun."
"Well, I have only recently figured it out. If the matter between Xiao An'er and Yan'er comes to fruition, Your Majesty will naturally put away his murderous intention. If Xiao An'er and Yan'er fail, then His Majesty will naturally kill Xiao An.
Son." The Queen said in a deep voice, "I have been married to Your Majesty for twenty years. In these twenty years, I have done nothing else. Apart from ruling the Sixth Palace, I have just guessed His Majesty's thoughts. I should not be wrong."
"Fortunately, the little princess has not been seen since leaving the palace on the Mid-Autumn Festival and went back to Nanyang." Grandma He said.
"Little An'er is smarter than me. She grew up in a different environment from me. When I was in the boudoir, I was well protected because of my frailty since I was a child. However, little An'er was taken by her father in the army since she was a child. Later, she was
After the Battle of Xueling, when she and her father were the only ones left in the An family, everyone was eyeing the Nanyang Palace and wanted to overthrow it. When she was young, she often encountered assassinations and was very sensitive to danger, so she must have
I have long been aware of His Majesty’s murderous intention.”
"In any case, the little princess killed Hua Siyu to relieve her anger."
The queen laughed and said, "Yes, it's time to relieve your anger. How can you not relieve your anger? Your Majesty is almost furious."
"My Lady, I don't know what is going on outside now. Your Majesty's people are guarding outside Fengqi Palace. Our people want to find out the news, but they can't find it. It's been a month, and I don't know how the little princess is doing, or how the old prince is doing.
”
"Although my father is loyal to Da Chu, he is still not confused. He will not hand over Xiao An'er." The queen raised her eyebrows and said, "Let's just wait. I'll see how long your majesty can keep an eye on me."
Aunt He nodded, "Eunuch Zhang is not bad. He secretly sent news from His Highness Seventh Prince every few days, saying that His Highness is still hiding behind closed doors in the mansion to reflect on his past mistakes. This reassures the Queen, otherwise, such a month would really make people anxious to death."<
/p>
"Zhang De, he is a good person. I have never thought in these years that he has served Your Majesty since he was a child, but he is not of the same mind as Your Majesty." The Queen sneered, "Your Majesty will feel betrayal and separation sooner or later."
