Chapter 878: The child does not know the mother, the mother does not know the child
Everyone knows that in Xilan today, Empress Dowager Xiao covers the sky with only one hand.
Even if the ministers wanted to support Tantai Yunlang, they would probably be powerless because the most important military power was firmly in the hands of Empress Dowager Xiao!
"Really? Let's try it." Tantai Yunlang suddenly smiled and turned around slowly, with a bright smile on his handsome face, "Then the Queen Mother also knows a saying, it is better to be broken than to be ruined. What do I have?
How capable you are, the Queen Mother, you also know."
"It's not whether I have it, it's whether I want it or not!"
Empress Dowager Xiao was stunned and looked into those bottomless eyes, "...it's useless to say more. The Ai family will give you three days to think about it. Come back to me after you think about it. As for the peace negotiation documents, the Ai family and the emperor
It will be taken care of by itself, you don’t need to worry about it anymore.”
After saying that, she fluttered her sleeves and turned around. Her slender back was straight and proud. With her remaining pride, she stepped on the broken magnolia flowers and disappeared into the depths of the corridor step by step.
"Queen Mother..." Biyu held the person who was slowly coming over with one hand and glanced at the jade plate in her hand.
There are two small wine glasses placed on it, which is very dazzling.
"Wait, wait..." Xiao Huanqin looked away.
Biyu was stunned for a moment, bowed and stepped back, "Yes."
Xiao Huanqin couldn't accept the things she suddenly learned tonight. She always thought she had a seamless plan, but that person had always known about it... Then, she didn't know if there was anything else.
She was confused. There was something in her heart that was clamoring to rush out of her body, but she once again forcibly suppressed it, so she almost ran out of the East Palace, as if she was escaping from something terrible.
Tantai Yunlang has been standing in the courtyard, under the largest magnolia tree, his eyes silently showing no thoughts.xdw8
At this time, Lu Chengfeng came quickly, his always calm face full of anger, he dropped to one knee and said: "Your Highness, after the Queen Mother left, she ordered a thousand imperial guards to surround the East Palace and strictly ordered not to allow anyone to leave.
In and out!”
Tantai Yunlang didn't see much reaction, he stood quietly with his hands behind his hands, as if he didn't hear anything.
Chengfeng became a little anxious and said again, "Your Highness, the Queen Mother's move is clearly to confine His Highness, not allowing courtiers to visit, not allowing His Highness to go out, and asking Pang Ce to lead the Imperial Guard to guard him to death, maybe..."
"Maybe what?" Tantai Yunlang smiled lightly.
Silence the wind and lower your head.
There was something else he didn't say directly: he might want to imprison His Highness for the rest of his life.
When this is not impossible!
Tantai Yunlang raised his eyes slightly and looked at the bright jade-like moon. His red lips curved in a sarcastic arc, "What do I want to do? How can a small East Palace be able to trap it?"
.”
Hearing these words, Chengfeng felt a little sad for no reason.
Yes, if His Highness really wants to fight for the throne, that idiot is his opponent. Why does the Queen Mother Xiao need to be so arrogant? It is really chilling!
Tantai Yunlang smiled and said: "The son does not know his mother, and the mother does not know her son. Mother, Queen, Mother, you have never understood my father, and you have never tried to understand me. But in the end, I cannot bear to be cruel, so
From this point of view, I can never defeat you."
Lu Chengfeng listened with his head bent and said nothing.
"Ride the wind."
Lu Chengfeng raised his head and didn't know what to say.
But in the end, he only heard one sentence: "Maybe, I was really wrong."
Chengfeng was puzzled by this sentence without beginning or end, but when he looked again, Tantai Yunlang's figure was no longer in front of him.
The dark night is endless, the moon is bright, and several fast horses are galloping on the official road leading to Jinling City, passing quickly under the night.
The woman on the leading black horse raised her voice and asked, "How far is it from Jinling after passing these mountains?"
"Go back to your Majesty, if you work so hard, you should be able to arrive in less than seven or eight days."
"drive"
In Jinling City, Tianxia Pavilion has a branch building.
"Miss is coming to Jinling?" Leng Feng was a little surprised when he received the news.
Shui Qingqian couldn't calm down, and her pretty face didn't look as cold as usual. She smiled and nodded a little more heavily, "Yes, Pavilion Master, I just received the news from the lady. She should be on her way here now."
Already."
Shui Qingqian was originally from Qingzhou. Although she was a woman, she was very capable and trusted by Xiao Jiujun. When the Tianxia Pavilion branch was established in Jinling City, Xiao Jiujun specially assigned her to take full charge of everything.
But it has been five years since I entered Tianxia Pavilion, but I have never had the opportunity to meet the real master. I have admired this legendary figure for a long time. How could I be unhappy when I suddenly heard the news that Ling Xiyue was coming to Jinling?
Leng Feng nodded, "Then we will pay close attention to the news in the imperial city and wait until the young lady comes."
"Yes." Shui Qingqian happily bowed and stepped back.
On the third day, at night.
Luanfeng Palace is too cold to look like the palace of a powerful empress dowager.
Empress Dowager Xiao put her hand on her eyebrows and leaned on the side of the phoenix chair. She looked very tired and asked, "What's going on over there, the prince?"
Biyu brought the water to Queen Mother Xiao, "His Royal Highness has been staying quietly in the East Palace. He seems to have no intention of coming out, and no one has sent any news... It is late at night. I will serve the Queen Mother to freshen up. Please rest."
Empress Dowager Xiao pushed away the cotton towel that Biyu stretched out in front of her eyes, "Where is the prince? Don't you want to see the Ai family?"
"...Not, not." Biyu's voice lowered a little unconsciously.
Empress Dowager Xiao closed her eyes weakly, "Why are you forcing me?"
Biyu looked at the tired profile of Queen Mother Xiao and was silent for a long time. Then she gritted her teeth and called her, "Princess, there is something I don't know whether to say or not..."
This sentence had been held in her heart for a long time. If she didn't say it, she might really have no chance.
Hearing Biyu's name, Xiao Huanqin was slightly startled.
At the age of seventeen, she married Xilan, entered the Crown Prince's Palace, and was granted the title of Queen. Everyone called her Crown Princess, Queen, and now the Queen Mother. She was very famous, but no one called her princess anymore.
.
Even she has gradually forgotten her past appearance. From the time she was with her as a child, from Tianqi to Xilan, the only person who can call her princess is Biyu. Now it sounds like a lifetime ago.
"you say."
This sudden touch made Xiao Huanqin relax.
Biyu was blessed and said in a trembling voice, "No matter how much hatred the princess had with the late emperor in the past, His Royal Highness is innocent. No matter how powerful he is, he is still just a child to you, princess, and should not have to bear the consequences of the previous generation.
grudges."
As Xiao Huanqin's personal maid since childhood, Biyu followed her all the way from the princess's mansion to the prince's mansion, from Tianqi to Xilan. She witnessed the destruction of all the good things and watched all the tragedies happen.
She saw everything Tantai Han did, so she wanted to put him to death quickly. No matter how he tried to save him, she could not make up for the damage he caused to the princess!
