famous eldest daughter

Chapter 1199

Clenching his fist, King Nan'an said: "Are you so confident that you can win?"

Xiao Yu smiled slightly and shook his head, "Of course I'm not confident. My imperial grandmother is in the hands of the emperor. How can I dare to be confident? It's just that, uncle, you seem to be too unsure."

After sighing slightly, Xiao Yu said: "Yes, tens of thousands of elite soldiers were defeated by me. The trauma in the emperor's heart will not heal for a while. It is normal to feel inferior."

King Nan'an felt his energy and blood attacking his heart.

It took no more time than a stick of incense to reach the palace where the original queen lived.

It was originally the most prosperous and luxurious place in the palace. Because of the Queen's accident, the Emperor kept the door locked but did not send anyone to clean it. This place actually seemed quite desolate and lonely.

Under the scorching sun in winter, the bright copper nails on the red lacquer door make people feel chilly.

King Nan'an thought slightly and reached out to push the door open.

With a heavy creaking sound, the door was opened for a moment, and the desolate image inside jumped into view.

This was the first time Xiao Yu came to this place since the Queen's accident. He glanced around and couldn't help but click his tongue, "Uncle Huang is really good at finding places. Who would have thought it would be here!"

Nan'an Wang Wuxin joked with Xiao Yu.

Having already failed so many times, he couldn't afford to lose anymore. If he failed again, he would have to lose his fortune and his life.

As soon as he stepped on the threshold, he immediately clapped three times.

Immediately, a secret guard hidden in a rockery on one side emerged, wearing a black tights and standing with his fists clasped, "Your Majesty!"

Seeing his own people, King Nan'an's heart felt as if a rock had fallen to the ground, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Only then did he realize that in the cold spring, his back was soaked with sweat.

"Has anyone been here?"

The secret guard shook his head, "No!"

King Nan'an was completely relieved. He turned around and smiled darkly at Xiao Yu, then took the lead and headed towards the bedroom.

Pushing the door open, Xiao Yu saw at a glance that the Queen Mother, dressed in plain clothes, was sitting upright, with a pale complexion, staring at the exquisite fan painted with flying butterflies and flowers in her hand, lost in thought.

That painted fan was like a congratulatory gift from Gu Yuqing on the Empress Dowager's birthday in a certain year.

The fan bone is a rare jade that is both cold and warm. It is warm in winter and cool in summer. Holding it in your hand will make you feel comfortable all the time.

Not far from her, a total of eight Nan'an King's men stood there with ferocious faces.

Hearing the sound of the door being pushed, everyone turned their heads to look in the direction of the door.

While King Nan'an's men all clasped their fists and called out "Your Majesty," Xiao Yu hurriedly stepped forward and walked towards the Queen Mother, "Grandmother."

The Queen Mother smiled slightly and said, "Here we come."

There was no hint of panic or anything in the voice, and it was calm without any fluctuation.

Before Xiao Yu could reach the Queen Mother's side, King Nan'an raised his hand and high-fived her again, "Bring this person up so that His Highness the Fourth Highness and his family can be reunited."

While he was talking, a dead soldier came out of the side hall, holding a sharp knife towards Gu Yuqing who was pushed forward by him.

Gu Yuqing walked straight to the main hall with a calm expression on her face, and even a hint of calmness in her eyes.

King Nan'an smiled proudly, and then sighed, "Originally, I wanted you to see your mother and concubine before you die, but unexpectedly, Concubine Hui was a quick mover. She didn't even want your son, and secretly hid it herself. .”

As he spoke, his eyes flicked to Gu Yuqing and the Queen Mother, "Without Concubine Hui, the two of them are enough! If you don't want them to die in front of you, just write a letter to the emperor. The imperial edict of abdication comes."

Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows, and was about to retort, when he heard the Empress Dowager sigh softly, and looked up at King Nan'an, "It's a waste of the benevolence of my palace, I spare your life!"

King Nan'an laughed loudly, but it was so hard that he gritted his teeth and his eyes were filled with fire, "A single thought of benevolence? Is the Queen Mother worthy of saying this word? If the Queen Mother was kind, how could my mother and concubine end up like that!"

Mentioning his mother and concubine, King Nan'an was so emotional that he couldn't control himself. "If the Queen Mother is kind, how come there are only so many princes in this palace alive!"

The queen mother was not emotional, she just sighed, "When your concubine mother died, she voluntarily!"

King Nan'an sneered and said, "Voluntary? People say that people are good at words when they are about to die. Why did the Queen Mother say such nonsense when her death was about to happen?"

The Queen Mother ignored King Nan'an and knew: "Your mother-in-law and I are indeed incompatible and have been fighting for a lifetime! She poisoned my son in an attempt to take away my son's crown prince position. Of course I can't tolerate her, but I can't tolerate her anymore." Why can't she be tolerated, if the late emperor hadn't nodded, he definitely wouldn't have given such cruel punishments in the palace."

"Back then, your maternal grandfather's family had a strong military presence, and they had evil intentions. They threatened your life and asked your mother and concubine to poison the late emperor. If they poisoned the late emperor to make you ascend the throne, your mother and concubine would definitely be blind. Blinking in response."

"But people's hearts are not as strong as snakes swallowing elephants, but they want to let their children take the throne and completely change the world! If their children take the throne, there will be no way for you to survive."

"In order to save your life, your mother-in-law made a deal with the late emperor, asking him to keep you safe for the rest of your life. In return, she designed to bring your grandfather and several uncles into the palace, so that the emperor could catch a turtle in a jar!"

When mentioning the past, the Queen Mother's eyes always had a vague and uncertain twinkle.

King Nan'an was in a state of panic, but he listened to every word of the Queen Mother's words... When his grandfather's family was suddenly executed by the family, he just thought it was because of his mother and concubine.

Over the years, I have been puzzled!
There were many concubines in the palace who were killed in battles, but it was rare that the death of one person affected the mother's family to this extent.

Unexpectedly, this is the reason!

"Your mother sacrificed herself to save your life. The late emperor was afraid that you would have too much resentment in your heart, so he sent you to northern Liaoning. Although northern Liaoning is located in a cold place, it is vast and open-minded. But it was unexpected. The broad horizons in Liaobei did not open up your narrow heart, and you lived in hatred for most of your life!"

King Nan'an was startled, and his ears rang with his father's sincere teachings when he was granted the title of king and went to the feudal vassal. What his father said the most seemed to be that he should be himself in a down-to-earth manner and never regret the painstaking efforts his mother and concubine had given him. , and after he has been in the feudal clan for ten years, he will take him back to the capital.

After that, his father sent envoys to fulfill his promise and take him back to the capital.

It's a pity that at that time, he was so resentful that he couldn't hear or believe anything.

He refused the order to return to Beijing.

Over the past few years, the only belief that supported him in surviving in the cold land of northern Liaoning was to strengthen his power, fight back to Kyoto, avenge his mother-in-law and his grandfather's family, and seek justice for himself!
Unexpectedly, this is justice!

It was difficult to accept this fact in his heart. King Nan'an tried his best to put it aside and said coldly: "What? The Queen Mother wants to use these empty words to find a way out for herself?"

The Queen Mother smiled, "Empty words? I knew you wouldn't believe it. Come on, take a look at these."

As she said that, the Queen Mother took out a small rosewood box from her side and handed it to King Nan'an, "Open it and take a look. These were written by your grandfather to your mother and concubine back then. I don't have any other hobbies except nostalgia. These things from the past are always reluctant to throw away, but now they are actually put to use!”

The Queen Mother's mind suddenly wandered when she mentioned nostalgia for the past.

Old friend...you are also my old friend, why don't you leave me a little memory of you!
