The queen mother was immersed in her own thoughts, and when she heard Emperor Yong's voice, she was surprised that he was also here.She twitched the corners of her mouth, the smile on her face faded a lot, and said in a low voice, "Yes."

"Emperor, do you still remember the palace change 20 years ago?"

How could Emperor Yong not remember?
On that extremely chaotic night, Taizu passed away suddenly, and the three princes rushed to the palace with each other, just to fight for the crown prince.The clinker met in the East Palace, fought, knocked down the candlestick, and burned for a whole night. None of the three princes survived. Emperor Yong was pushed to the throne by the Queen Mother, Xie Jia, and Princess Yongning.

"That day," the Queen Mother laughed, "it was Aijia who was by his side."

"The Ai family killed him with his own hands!"

The palace change came suddenly, too many people died that night, the people in the palace were busy redistributing power, and they had no time to take care of Taizu.After all, after many years of fighting, Taizu's body was not as good as before, and it seemed reasonable to suffer from sudden illness.

A trace of astonishment flashed across Emperor Yong's eyes, and the Empress Dowager laughed and murmured: "The Ai family hates him for too many years... He plundered me into the palace, ruined my family, my marriage contract, and ruined my marriage. I have ruined my life. I would rather destroy myself by taking medicine than give birth to him, and he will humiliate me and play with me..."

"I didn't expect that the East Palace would catch fire," the Queen Mother said, "I was prepared to die with him when the incident happened... You know, people are like this, once they have a chance to live, they don't want to die, not at all. "

"But I met Yongning."

The Empress Dowager looked at Emperor Yong and lowered her voice, "Tell me, did she see me kill Wei Kang? The palace people were busy fighting the fire, and I was the only one in Chengqian Palace. She is so smart, how could she not guess that I killed Wei Kang?" Did Wei Kang kill him? So in those few years, I was always afraid that Yongning would expose the truth about Wei Kang's sudden death..."

So she arranged for three maids to be beside Princess Yongning, nominally to take care of her body, but actually to monitor her every move, once she showed signs of revealing the truth...

Then what?The queen mother didn't know what to do.It didn't seem necessary to kill her; if she wasn't killed, the Queen Mother herself would be the one to die if something happened.Moreover, Princess Yongning has such a good relationship with Emperor Yong, did she tell Emperor Yong about this long ago?

She killed Taizu Wei Kang with the will to die, and was lucky to save her life, but she didn't want to die.Therefore, after learning that Princess Yongning gave birth, the situation went from bad to worse, especially after knowing that she was pregnant, the Empress Dowager felt a little rejoicing in her heart. According to Princess Yongning's broken body, she would not be able to survive another year if she had another child.As long as Princess Yongning dies, this matter will be buried forever.

"The Ai family is looking forward to her death, seeing her being tortured by illness, seeing Yaoyao being so young and about to lose her mother, and looking forward to her getting better soon."

The queen mother closed her eyes, "All these years, I have always wondered, if I hadn't really wanted to kill Yongning, would she have lived a few more years? You don't know, Yaoyao cried in my arms when she was young Looking for mother, my heart feels like a knife is cutting..."

She is too scared.She never thought that one day, she would have the courage to raise the butcher's knife to a founding emperor, and become the most honorable woman in the country that he single-handedly defeated.She sometimes felt that she had died that night, and her life for these years was like a dream.

Emperor Yong did not speak for a long time.

He really regarded the Queen Mother as his mother.

"I'm tired, the queen mother has a good rest, don't mention these past events."

That "Mother's Empress" could not be uttered no matter what.

……

Taking the carriage back to the princess mansion, Shu Yao was in a trance all the way.After comforting the Queen Mother, her own mood sank.

First Shu Jing, then the Empress Dowager.She tried hard to convince herself that she had no relationship with her father, and the Queen Mother didn't do it on purpose, but the Queen Mother's complicated and difficult emotions, and her uncle's sudden move to let her go back to the Princess's Mansion, could make her stop thinking about it?

Shu Yao is not stupid.

She just doesn't want to think about it, doesn't like to figure out people's hearts, and feels that life is too tiring.As long as others don't provoke her, she can turn a blind eye.

But she couldn't help but wonder, if all of this hadn't happened, would her mother not have died?
She is a child with a mother.

The carriage stopped long ago, and the pine needles outside called a few times, but Shu Yao didn't answer.Xu was worried about her, so a hand reached in and lifted the car curtain.

Shu Yao muttered, "Don't bother me, the county chief will stay alone for a while..."

"Is there something on the princess' mind?"

The voice is as clear as a mountain spring, deep and sweet.Shu Yao raised her eyes in astonishment, and saw Li Mingji.

She never thought that she would miss someone so much.She is a noble princess, her relatives follow her, and everyone around her is trying to curry favor with her, who is worth her initiative to miss?But such a person really appeared.

Obviously overjoyed, Shu Yao was still thinking about the one-month deadline she had set for Li Mingji in her heart.When did she leave Yangzhou?Seems like it's been a month, right?Then she can't show that she misses her too much, otherwise what should Li Mingji do if he is arrogant because of his favor?
But seeing Li Mingji walk into the carriage, sit down beside her, and hug her on his lap naturally, Shu Yao's eyes suddenly turned red, and then she couldn't control her emotions, and tears fell one after another.

"I have rushed to the capital as fast as possible," Li Mingji sighed, "It seems that I was a step too late, and I didn't make Jiaojiao happy."

really weird.Shu Yao didn't cry in front of the Empress Dowager who watched her grow up, nor did she cry in front of Emperor Yong, who was closest to her, but in front of Li Mingji, these emotions seemed to have a home, and she couldn't wait to vent them out.

At first, tears fell one by one, and then she completely abandoned the reserve of being a princess, and lay on Li Mingji's chest, crying out of breath, even her voice was intermittent, and she started crying Hiccup: "Ugh...it's really all your fault...if you don't come, I won't like you..."

Li Mingji leaned over, gently kissed the teardrops off her face, his voice lowered a bit, "It's better for Jiaojiao not to say such things lightly."

The letter to Emperor Yong was written by Li Mingji himself, and it was also sent by Li Mingji.Li Mingji was really surprised that Shu Yao reacted so strongly.But he also enjoyed her dependence, if only he could see the little princess crying.

"Why?" Shu Yao cried for a long time, finally regained her composure, and said dissatisfiedly, "You dare to arrange for this princess to do whatever you want because of my liking? My liking is limited, Li Mingji, you have to be careful grasp."

Li Mingji wiped her tears patiently, "I have a way to prolong my liking, is Jiaojiao interested?"

"what?"

He smiled, moved closer, and his low breath fell on her face, "Marry me."
