It’s hard to break a phoenix’s destiny

Yang Xuanzhi is dead.

If the wind and cold catch the disease, the decoction will be useless.

On this day, Sima Ying, a young man wearing fresh clothes and angry horses, entered Luoyang City with an army of 100,000, and directly entered the Hanzhang Palace in the imperial palace.

This was the residence of the late emperor Sima Yan, a place where even Sima Zhong did not dare to live.

Yang Xianrong didn't care about these things in the court. She didn't say anything to Sima Zhong. She took Yang Xianlian's hand and quietly left the palace with Cuixi and Lanxiang back to Yang Mansion.

Since Yang Xuanzhi's illness also lasted for more than half a month, Sun Ying was mentally prepared. Therefore, when Yang Xuan died, the funeral coffin, white cloth, incense, candles and other items were quickly brought in. Moreover, the Yang family also had money, so the mourning hall was decorated very quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was completely empty and filled with sobs.

Yang Xianrong's face was bloodless, and he was sitting on his knees in front of the coffin.

Because of her status, she couldn't wear white mourning clothes all over her body, so she could only wear a white flower on her head.

Yang Xianlian had already changed into mourning clothes and stood beside Sun Ying with an expressionless face.

There are not many people from the Yang family staying in Luoyang, but they are all capable people. They are well aware that in these extraordinary times, many things are carried out in a low-key manner, and they do not cause too many disturbances in Luoyang city. Many people didn't even know the news of Yang Xuanzhi's death. They were still closing their doors and quietly watching Sima Ying's movements.

This is the spring time of the year again, and the wind and sand are blowing.

The two Yang brothers were still busy decorating the mourning hall, looking extremely haggard.

You must know that Yang Xuanzhi was so talented that he died just like this. This is an extremely heavy blow to the Yang family and even Yang Xianrong.

Sun Ying whispered to Yang Xianrong in a hoarse voice: "Go back to the palace. Your father knows this intention."

"What did he say in the end?" Yang Xianrong did not cry, but kept clutching his sleeves.

"I just... don't worry about you." Sun Ying paused, "I don't know how long these troubles in the Sima family will last, and what they will end up like? He regrets very much that he agreed to let you enter the palace as his queen. He will be afraid for the rest of his life. It’s all a prison.”

Yang Xianrong trembled all over and bit his lower lip so hard that it drew blood. However, she still didn't cry because there were no tears at all.

How could Yang Xuanzhi die from the cold? It was just because Sima Ying and Sima Yong rushed into Luoyang City with their army. They threatened that Yang Xianrong's father, Yang Xuanzhi, abused his power and disrupted the government because he was the emperor's father-in-law. They would raise troops to "clear the emperor's side".

What a big shit basin it is.

Yang Xuanzhi never participated in court affairs again after Yang Xianrong entered the palace. If Sima Zhong hadn't asked him to count the losses in the arsenal, he wouldn't have often gone to the palace to discuss matters, but now he was interfering with the imperial power.

He hates, he is angry, he is unwilling.

"Go back, your brothers here are fine." Sun Ying wiped her tears, then took Yang Xianlian's little hand and said, "Lian'er, follow your sister back. You must take good care of your sister."

"Okay." Yang Xianlian agreed and stretched out his other hand to pull Yang Xianrong.

Yang Xianrong turned to look at his sister and suddenly said: "Mom, let Lian'er stay at home for a few days. The palace... will be very chaotic."

"The family has been in chaos these past few days..." Sun Ying was a little embarrassed.

"I asked Granny Yan and the others to pack up and leave the palace." Yang Xianrong seemed to have made some determination before he said: "After this matter is done, you all go back to Tai'an County and don't come back, at least for this year. Don’t even come back.”

"Why?" Sun Ying was puzzled, "Sima Ying didn't get the power, what else do you want?" "Mother, Sima Ying is nothing, he is really stupid." Yang Xianrong snorted, "Listen Mine, I asked my brothers to leave too, just to support the spirit back to the ancestral grave in Tai'an County."

"No, I can't leave you alone in Luoyang." Sun Ying was anxious.

"I am the queen of Dajin."

"Why do you care about the queen's name?"

"Then I am also a phoenix." Yang Xianrong smiled bitterly, "Mother, this phoenix is ​​destiny and a shackle. I have no choice."

"If that doesn't work, don't be a queen anymore and come with me." Sun Ying's voice became louder, and Yang Xianyong and Yang Xiangkang surrounded him.

At this time, the sharp voice of eunuch Meng Yan suddenly came from the gate: "The emperor's brother has come to Yang Mansion to express his condolences! Come out quickly to greet him!"

This person is a close confidant of Sima Ying. Now almost all of Sima Ying's orders come from him. His demeanor is much more arrogant than Zhang Duke's, and he even looks down on all living beings, which makes many people hate him very much. .

But so what?
The master behind this man is now in charge of all affairs in Dajin.

No matter how reluctant the people of the Yang family were, they all stood up, opened the door of the Yang Mansion, and knelt on the ground respectfully.

Sima Ying changed into a black python robe and walked in with a very natural expression. When she raised her hand to the Yang family, Meng Yan screamed again: "The emperor's brother ordered everyone in the Yang family to stand up without saluting."

Sima Ying had already seen Yang Xianrong, who was kneeling in front of the coffin and completely motionless. She quickly walked over and wanted to reach out to pull her. But Yang Xianlian was already standing in front of him, looking at him without saying a word.

Yang Xianlian has also grown up a lot, and already has the appearance of a young girl. Her expression and appearance were exactly the same as those of Yang Xianrong, but she was a little more cold and not soft.

Sima Ying did not push her away, but looked at Yang Xianrong and said softly: "My condolences."

"Oh." Yang Xianrong raised his head and looked at him. There was an expression on his pale face that Sima Ying could not understand. Suddenly, he was a little flustered. He hurriedly leaned over and said: "Don't be sad, let's go back to the palace. Okay. When you are buried later, how about I come with you?"

"No need. My father's coffin will be transported back to Tai'an County soon and buried in the ancestral grave." Yang Xianrong sighed, "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince, I will keep a vigil here today. Do you agree? ?”

"This is against the rules." Sima Ying replied immediately.

"Oh, it's against the rules, isn't it?" It's like a question, but also like a self-answer. Yang Xianrong lowered his head, looked at the silk dress on Yang Xianlian, and said quietly: "Then what are the rules?"

This sentence stopped Sima Ying. He had a lot to say and wanted to see her. Even when he entered the gate of Luoyang City, he was thinking about whether she would be standing at the gate of the palace waiting for him with a smile, waiting to hold his hand when he entered the palace in uniform.

But it seems that it is against the rules.

Because now she is the queen of Dajin and he is the crown prince's brother.

"Go back to the palace." There was a coldness in his voice.

"What will you do?" Yang Xianrong raised his head and asked him.

Sima Ying didn't know how to answer her anymore. In these black and white eyes, he actually felt a little guilty. Because he had already drafted an edict, Sima Zhong voluntarily gave up the throne of the emperor and retired to Jinyong City to become the supreme emperor.
