"Do you know if it's just our mansion that was surrounded?" Shen Xinyan asked.

     

    Shen Xinyan breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it didn't hurt anyone, it was not her turn to worry about the rest.

    Fortunately, Wei Chengzhao and other juniors returned to the house early in the morning, which made people feel relieved.

    The palace has changed, and this night is destined to be an uneven night.

    "Second sister-in-law, what happened? How did I hear that officers and soldiers surrounded our mansion?" Mrs. Yang hurried over, sweat dripping from her forehead.

    "I don't know either. Now the officers and soldiers are just besieging the mansion, but there is no other action. It should be fine for the time being." Shen Xinyan replied.

    Yang shi frowned: "It's really an eventful time, and there has been no relaxing time this year. The officers and soldiers are besieging the mansion, could it be that the man in the palace is going to be replaced?"

    The last sentence, she said in a low voice.

      He said slowly, "It's not our turn to take care of the affairs in the palace, just wait with peace of mind."

    

     

    Seeing her relaxed expression, she didn't seem to be worried about the outside world at all, and unknowingly, Yang's whole person also relaxed a lot, and she smiled when she heard the words: "So, let's let Zhao go to another day. Brother came to kowtow to his second aunt."

     

    Yang shi smiled happily: "It's not just a big event, your second aunt's congratulations can't be thin!"

    "Oh, I dare you to ask for gifts for Brother Zhao!" Shen Xinyan joked.

    The two chatted and laughed for a while, and Mr. Yang took a reassurance and left.

    Shen Xinyan thought for a while, fearing that the eldest princess was worried, she turned around and went to the eldest princess.

    When I went in, I didn't see the eldest princess. When I asked the maid, I knew that the eldest princess went to the small Buddha hall. She simply found the small Buddha hall again, and waited for the eldest princess to finish reciting the scriptures, and then stepped forward to help her up.

      Tonight, the officers and soldiers just surrounded our house, what is it?"

    "It's better for them to be surrounded! It means that they have no intention of hurting us, and they don't want us to get involved in the incident. I want to come to the palaces of the famous princes and ministers, all of them are surrounded That's it." The Great Chief took his seat and said calmly.

    "In the end, it's my mother who is well-informed, unlike my daughter-in-law, who just heard Ziyan's words, almost didn't scare my soul away." Shen Xinyan sighed.

    The eldest princess chuckled and patted the back of her hand, and said kindly: "Go back! Even when the sky is falling, there are tall people supporting us. We are just women and people. , is also powerless, why bother thinking about making yourself unsafe."

    Shen Xinyan said yes, she helped her back to the room, and waited for her to wash up with the maid before leaving.

    But instead of going back to her house, she turned to see her little grandson again. Seeing the little baby sleeping soundly, she couldn't help but gently poked the red face with her fingertips.

    The feeling of being promoted to grandmother is too novel. It seems that not long ago her daughter was a little girl who likes to be coquettish, impulsive, and very protective of her shortcomings. She still remembers that the little girl was like an angry little girl. Like a tiger, he stubbornly guarded Yunfu so that no one would drive him away.

    In the blink of an eye, the little girl has grown up, married and had children.

    Her thoughts were all on the baby in the swaddle, so she naturally paid less attention to the **** storm outside, and her heart gradually calmed down.

    When Chunliu came over, she was surprised that she had been sitting like this for nearly a night.

     

    Shen Xinyan got up and rubbed her aching shoulders, Chun Liu hurriedly stepped forward and pinched for her.

    Naturally, the grandmother who followed up took the child out.

    "Have Ying'er ever eaten?" Shen Xinyan asked.

    "I've used it, I'm hungry when I wake up."

    "What's going on outside? Is there any news?" Shen Xinyan asked again.

      nothing else."

     

      The **** came back soon, and things simply happened.

    " Yesterday's Weifu was indeed a man from the government?" Shen Xinyan asked.

    "It is indeed a man from the government." The guard replied.

    Shen Xinyan let him down without asking any more questions.

    In the palace, Emperor Yuanyou sat high on the throne with a somewhat ugly face, until Qiao Liu came in and reported that he had arrested all the rest of King Cheng, and his expression softened a little.

    "Is there any fish that slip through the net?" He asked worriedly.

    "None."

    Emperor Yuanyou nodded, and then sneered: "As a son of the royal family, for his own selfishness, he even colluded with foreign enemies, causing the court and the common people to have nothing. Such a person will die. A hundred times is not enough!"

    No wonder Rong Di was able to quickly capture two cities at the beginning. King Cheng was a general in those days and had a certain understanding of the border defense arrangement of the court. The son of King Cheng, who took refuge in foreign enemies, naturally leaked these go out.

    Fortunately, he didn't know much, so after Rong Di attacked two cities in a row, the offensive slowed down when they reached the third city.

    "I won't let them go this time, they need to fall to the ground!"

    These are all hidden dangers left by cutting weeds and not eradicating the roots, this time he must dig out all the tumors!

    He took a deep breath and asked Heizi on the other side: "How is Zhou Mao's injury?"

    "The wound is deep, but not life-threatening."

    "Thanks to him for protecting me in time this time, otherwise my life would be over!" Emperor Yuanyou was somewhat fortunate.

     

    Empress Zhou colluded with Prince Cheng's prince, intending to force the palace, which was a big crime to punish the nine clans, but Zhou Mao took a firm stand to draw a clear line with them from the very beginning, and now the Zhou mansion is about to be destroyed. At the time of liquidation, he made a rescue.

    With this great credit, at least one room was saved.

    Such a person is smart, sober, resolute, and loyal to His Majesty. Even though His Majesty hates the surname Zhou extremely now, he has always been merciful to him.

    It's a pity that such a smart person has too many people holding him back, including his biological father, first-born mother, brother, and even his wife and daughter.

    Otherwise, with his talent, why would he only be in the position of a minister of the Honglu Temple, and he would sit for so many years without moving a single cent.

    In the days that followed, Shen Xinyan received daily reports about which officials were thrown into prison and whose homes were raided. Among them, there was the former Zhou Shoufu and his two direct sons and two concubines.

    It can be said that except for the eldest son Zhou Mao, none of the Zhou family was spared, and even the Queen Zhou in the palace.

    Fang's and Fang Birong's maiden family, the Marquis of Hiraang, were also implicated.

    Seeing Mrs Fang who was desperately kowtowing to the eldest princess and asking her to intercede for her family, Shen Xinyan's eyes were a little complicated.

    Fang soon saw her, rushed over crying, grabbed her skirt and said, "Second brother and sister, it's all my fault, I'm also shameless. I beg your pardon, I just ask you to say a few good words to the imperial concubine, and leave my father’s life anyway, I beg you…”

    While speaking, she also kowtowed to Shen Xinyan.

    Shen Xinyan hurriedly grabbed her and stopped her from knocking again: "Sister-in-law, don't do this, the noble concubine is a woman in the deep palace, how can she interfere with the affairs of the previous dynasty."

     "Just ask her to say two good words to His Majesty for my father and save her life." Mrs Fang said hurriedly.

      "Shen Xinyan said in a difficult way.

    The eldest princess sighed and said: "Shen Shi is right, His Majesty is in the time of anger, and when you go to intercede at this time, don't you just hit the muzzle? Don't worry too much, Ling Zun is only in prison, unlike the others who were beheaded, exiled, or searched, it can be seen that his crime is not serious, and His Majesty is not going to take his life."

    "Really?" Fang Shi twitched his lips and asked with tears in his eyes.

    "Why should mother lie to you, get up quickly, if the children see how bad it is." Shen Xinyan helped her up.

    Fang shi stood up with her strength, and kept mumbling, "Nothing will happen, nothing will happen" and so on. I don't know if she wanted to convince others, or she wanted to convince herself.

    Shen Xinyan has some sympathy, and it is really not a blessing to have such a relative who has limited talent and knowledge and is unwilling to be subordinate to others.

    She thought, the real smart people in the Marquis of Pingliang's family are only Fang Shi.

    The former harem began a big reckoning, and countless people were dealt with every day. For a while, the people in the court and the public were panicked, especially those officials who were spared, who were fortunate to have preserved themselves, And inevitably hurt.

     It can be said that the person has mixed feelings and has a heart.

    Emperor Yuanyou stared at the empress Zhou who was sitting on the ground, who could no longer see the graceful and graceful past, and said in a hurried manner: "Looking at the love in the past, today I am I'll leave you with a whole corpse."

    "Is that so? I really want to thank Your Majesty, Long En." After experiencing that night's fear, when the moment of death came, Queen Zhou breathed a sigh of relief.

    Life or death is a given, no matter how worried she is, it is useless.

    However, when she saw the undisguised disgust on Emperor Yuanyou's face, her heart trembled.

     

    "I forgot to tell you that the man you worked for, I have ordered him to be divided into five horses, colluded with foreign enemies, led Rong and Di people into the customs and other crimes are made public in the world, and now they The family of King Cheng has been reviled by all the people, and there will be no peace after death."

    "No, I'm wrong, they are no longer from the royal family, and the royal uncle officially put them out of the family! Now they are just lonely ghosts without foundation. If you go fast So, at this moment, I can be a pair of mandarin ducks with the same fate."

    Empress Zhou was bloodless and looked at him with her eyes wide open. The man in front of her, who was full of murderous aura and hated herself extremely, was really the one who abandoned the Prince Cheng and wanted to Are you married?

    Even though she married him back then, she did have a desire for power, but she also had a love for him.

     

    As soon as he finished speaking, the waiter who had been waiting outside the hall walked in with the neatly folded white silk in both hands.

    Empress Zhou's face was ashen, but she just asked: "After all these years, is it possible that you have no affection for me at all?"

    "No! If it wasn't for your design back then, I wouldn't admit you at all." Emperor Yuanyou replied indifferently, and after speaking, he strode out of the hall.

    "The Queen's funeral please!" The high-pitched voice of the maid resounded in the hall, and Queen Zhou looked desperately at the figure that was getting farther and farther away from her, when her neck was wrapped in white silk At that time, she didn't struggle, and still stared at the direction where the man outside the hall disappeared.

      half a point.

    Consciousness became more and more dissipated, and in a trance, she saw the pair of bi men at Bibo Pavilion, accompanied by Qin and Xiao, and the tender feelings that lingered on them, even if they were far away From a distance, she can also feel it deeply.

    She thought enviously, if only that person could treat her like this.

    But the next moment, the scene of Prince Cheng falling in a pool of blood appeared in front of her again, she murmured and thought: Wrong, everything is wrong, she should not be greedy back then Things that don't belong to you, but you should live your life to manage your own happiness...

    For a long time, her hand holding Bai Ling finally fell down weakly.

    "The Empress has died!" After a while, the voice of the maid rang out.

    Concubine Rui stood by the window, staring into the distance dazedly. When the news of the queen's funeral came, she just said 'understood', the palace maid could not guess her mind, Not daring to say any more, he bowed and walked out.

    Dead? Well, living is nothing but torture, it is better to be dead.

    She knew that she should be happy, and since then this harem has truly become her world, the imperial edict to establish her as the queen is placed in the imperial study, and it has been kept for so many years.

    She thought, maybe she should have let the imperial edict be opened.

    The battle between her and Zhou ended with her overall victory.

    But, did she really win? what did she get? Queen's seat? Countless glory and wealth? She curled the corners of her mouth bitterly, raising her hand to lightly cover her eyes.

    This pair of eyes that are said to be as clear as a child's, after so many killings, have long become turbid. Even those private methods, she used it with perfection.

    "Niangniang, there is a letter from Lord Hou!"

    She was stunned, and the indifference on her body was immediately swept away: "Bring it for this palace to see."

    She thought, no matter whether the road in the second half of her life is bumpy or not, she can go on without hesitation, for the people she cares about.

    When the door of the British government opened again, it was time for the army to return to the court.

    The mansion swept away the dullness of the past and became beaming. From the eldest princess to the ordinary sweeping servants, they all stretched their necks and waited for the man of the mansion to return.

    "Where's the people? Why haven't you come back?" The eldest princess waited and waited, but she didn't see her son and eldest grandson returning, so she was in a hurry.

      When I came back, I heard her question and answered quickly.

    The eldest princess could only suppress her inner anxiety and let Shen Xinyan help her into the room and sit down.

    "The last time I was looking forward to their father and son's triumphant return was many years ago." The eldest princess's face was full of nostalgia, but she heard the expressions of Shen Xinyan, Yang Shi and others present. slight change.

    Because they all know, this father and son will definitely not refer to Wei Junhang and Wei Chenglin, because Wei Chenglin is leading the army for the first time, and it is impossible to have it many years ago.

    Shen Xinyan and Yang shi looked at each other, and both saw worry in each other's eyes.

    It is clear that the eldest princess has gotten a lot better during this time, and she has never been confused again, but she did not expect to do it again today.

     "Brother Lin achieved this achievement the first time he fought to kill the enemy. It is no worse than his eldest uncle back then. He really deserves to be brought up by his grandfather." Dayton, smiled and said.

     

    Shen Xinyan and Yang Shi looked at each other again.

    This is... back?

    The eldest princess didn't know what the two were thinking, she turned around happily and teased the great-grandson that Wei Yingzhi had just brought in.

    At this time, Wei Junhang also returned to his heart like an arrow, and did not pay too much attention to Emperor Yuanyou's questioning at all, and Wei Chenglin beside him did the same. He waved his hand helplessly: "That's it, you father and son should go back to the manor. If you want to come, your aunt will be in a hurry."

    The two hurriedly saluted and left, and after exiting the hall, they saw Zhou Mao walking over under the leadership of the inner servant.

    Zhou Mao also saw them, he paused, and said lightly: "Congratulations to the grandfather and the prince on their successful return."

    "Thank you, thank you!" Wei Junhang didn't seem to feel his indifference and replied politely.

     

    Zhou Mao only glanced at him, didn't say any more, and stepped into the hall.

      .

    Everything today is all because of Wei Chenglin, if it wasn't for him, why would his daughter end up like this!

    He took a deep breath, pressed down his full of resentment, and knelt down toward Emperor Yuanyou on the throne: "Chen Zhou Mao, see Your Majesty!"

    On the way out of the palace, Wei Junhang glanced at his son beside him, as if he could understand his thoughts. For a moment, he reached out and patted his shoulder, but didn't say a word.

    Wei Chenglin felt his father's silent comfort, the inexplicable feelings in his heart dissipated a lot, and he called out in a low voice: "Father."

    "Go back, your grandmother and mother are still waiting for us!"

    "Hmm."

    The matter of the eldest son and the Zhou family girl has long been unclear. The Zhou family's daughter is at fault, but the eldest son is not wrong? In the final analysis, but whose children are distressed.

    And he, after all, is just a selfish father.

    "The grandfather is back, the prince is back! The grandfather is back, the prince is back!" The joyful cries of the servants spread layer after layer, which made Shen Xinyan in the house suddenly When he got up, even the eldest princess didn't care, and rushed out quickly.

    Yang shi smiled and helped the eldest princess and followed Shen Xinyan.

    Shen Xinyan stood under the porch, looking out the door excitedly, until a pair of men in the same armor gradually appeared in the distance, she finally turned red, staring closely at the man walking in front people.

    The man's steps were steady but a little irritable, as if he saw her, but he was staggering. Fortunately, the person next to him helped him, but the next moment, he pushed the Holding his arm, he stepped wider and came over eagerly.

    Wei Chenglin looked at his father who was walking faster and faster, then looked at his grandmother and mother who were looking forward to it under the corridor, pursed his lips tightly, and then quickly followed his father's figure and left .

    "Mother, the unfilial son Junhang is back!" Wei Junhang walked in front of the eldest princess, knelt down with a plop, and choked.

    The eldest princess shed tears and trembled her hands to help him: "Okay, it's good to be back, it's good to be back!"
