Emperor Phoenix Policy: Feng Qingtian

Chapter 570
After Feng Yan got married a few years ago, he was made a prince. He and Tang Xu grew up with Feng Yao.

Feng Jin didn't want Tang Xu to follow Tang Jun's old path, so that the green clothes under the nine springs would not feel at ease, but Tang Xu actually liked being a hidden guard, so he begged Feng Jin hard, and asked Feng Yao to intercede for him, Feng Jin was helpless , had to go with him.

Strange to say, Tang Xu is actually very good at being a secret guard. He is only 16 years old and has already achieved the position of deputy leader of the secret guard. Given time, he must be the leader of Feng Yao's secret guard.

Feng Yan and Tang Xu looked at each other, and they both saw puzzlement in each other's eyes. Feng Yan thought for a while and asked, "How do you say that?"

"Emperor Mother was so focused on finding Father, she just waited for me to marry a wife and ascend to the throne of God, so she let her go."

Feng Yao said with some anger.

Feng Yan's eyes widened, "How did His Royal Highness know?"

"One day, when the empress was talking to that parrot, I heard it."

Feng Yao's expression was very lonely, Feng Yan frowned, and said, "The emperor's whereabouts have been unknown for 15 years, it is reasonable for His Majesty to want to find him, Your Highness, I say something that I don't know the severity of, don't be angry .”

"You said."

"Your Majesty endured for 15 years, raising and teaching His Majesty, and didn't want to leave until His Majesty grew up. This is already a deep maternal love."

Feng Yao pursed her lips, with a tangled and sad expression, "I know what you said, but I don't want her to leave in my heart, if she leaves, she won't come back, I know that."

"Could it be that because you don't want your majesty to go, your majesty won't marry a wife, and won't be enthroned?"

Tang Xu said, Feng Yao picked up the book again, "If you can procrastinate for one more day, just procrastinate."

Feng Yan and Tang Xu looked at each other, and they both sighed and said nothing more, not knowing how to comfort him.

On this day, the words in the East Palace's study reached Feng Jin's ears through Mrs. Lan's mouth.

"Go back and tell Yan'er, what Yao'er has done and said in the future, don't tell anyone else."

Madam Lan didn't understand, "Your Majesty means..."

Feng Jin was silent for a long time, and then said softly, "Yao'er has grown up."

Mrs. Lan's heart was high and she immediately understood, and she respectfully replied 'yes'.

When she was young, the empress was worried about His Highness the Crown Prince, so she asked Yan'er to look at him a little bit. Now that she has grown up, some words don't need to be passed on to Her Majesty's ears.

As for her, she shouldn't know about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Mrs. Lan originally thought that the Queen would persuade His Highness the Prince when she knew that His Highness the Crown Prince did not want to get married, or force him to agree with her status as a powerful and mother, but to Mrs. Lan's surprise, the Queen did nothing.

No, it's not like I didn't do anything. The empress canceled all flower viewing and snow viewing activities, and never let the noble ladies of the imperial capital enter the palace.

Not only that, some ministers put forward papers to implore the Queen to choose the Crown Prince's concubine, but the Queen suppressed the papers.

The days passed day by day, from the age of 16 to the age of 20, when His Royal Highness was weak, the empress never mentioned the choice of a princess for His Royal Highness.

Gradually, among the civil and military officials, there were unpleasant remarks, saying that the empress and the prince were orphans and widowed mothers, and the majesty was reluctant to part with the prince, which was why he was pressing the matter of choosing a concubine.

This remark went out of the palace, spread to the market, and became unbearable.

On this day, Feng Yao went out of the Eastern Palace, drinking with Feng Yan and Tang Xu in a restaurant, there was also a table of guests drinking and eating on the other side of the screen, the guests at that table were chatting loudly, and the voice came here.

"Do you know? His Royal Highness is already in his twenties, and he has not established a princess. Not only that, he doesn't even have a side concubine or a girl in the same room. He has never been close to a woman. Do you know why?"

Someone said mysteriously, and the other answered, "Could it be the broken sleeve? I heard that the crown prince and King Chong'an are very close, so it could be..."

The king of Chong'an is Fengyan.

Tang Xu was afraid that Feng Yao would be unhappy after hearing these obscenities, so he went to teach the guests at the table, but Feng Yao gave him a wink and turned him back.

"No, no, our Highness the Crown Prince didn't cut off his sleeves, nor did he not get close to the woman, but..."

"But what?"

Human nature is gossip, and the rest of the guests asked curiously.

"Instead, the body of the woman he is close to is not an ordinary woman."

"What kind of woman?"

Seeing the man kept telling the truth, the rest of the guests asked impatiently, the man laughed and said in a low voice, "Isn't it his biological mother, our Queen?"

Feng Yao's face sank, Tang Xu pulled out his sword, and wanted to chop those people, but was pushed back by Feng Yao.

The guests over there clearly did not believe it, saying that the man was talking nonsense.

"You don't believe me? Then why don't you tell me why the queen didn't establish a concubine for Her Royal Highness? It's already twenty, and the queen still suppresses the ministers' papers. Any minister who mentioned the matter of establishing a concubine was suppressed by the queen. You said if it wasn't The empress has ghosts in her heart, and she is reluctant to marry her son a daughter-in-law. How could this be so? Her majesty is not yet forty, and she is at the age of a wolf and a tiger. I heard that her highness is so old, and she often sleeps in the empress's house at night. What about the bedroom?"

Although those people still didn't believe it, they were more or less shaken.

Feng Yao's face was frighteningly livid, and Tang Xu's face was not much better. He said in a low voice, "They dare to slander Her Majesty the Queen and the Crown Prince so much, and I will kill them!"

Feng Yao stared at him coldly, "Come back!"

Tang Xu sat back unwillingly, still holding the hilt of the sword with his right hand, and when Feng Yao gave an order, he rushed over and chopped those nonsense guests to pieces.

Feng Yao glanced at Feng Yan, "You live outside the palace, did you already know?"

Feng Yan nodded, "Originally, there were some comments in the palace, which were normal, but nothing more than saying that the Empress was reluctant to part with His Highness, and nothing else. But the comments changed outside the palace."

Tang Xu said in a low voice, "People in the market place like to say such unfounded things the most."

Feng Yao was silent for a moment, then asked, "Does the Queen know?"

"His Majesty seldom pays attention to such trivial matters."

That is, I don't know.

Feng Yao got up slowly and walked out, Tang Xu chased after her, "Your Highness just let those tongue-twisters go?"

Feng Yao stopped and turned to look at Tang Xu. That cold look made Tang Xu, who was so used to life and death, feel his scalp numb and his feet go weak.

"Whoever speaks has his tongue cut off, and he who listens has his ears cut off! Clap your hands and applaud, cut off your hands!"

When Feng Yao got out of the restaurant and got on the horse, there were screams from the second floor of the restaurant, Feng Yao's black eyes were filled with coldness.

Feng Yao did not go back to the East Palace, but went to the palace.

Feng Jin was reviewing the memorial in the imperial study, and saw Feng Yao walking in silently, with a worried expression on his face, Feng Jin glanced at the palace servants who were serving beside him, and the palace servants retreated respectfully.

"Yao'er has something on his mind?"

Feng Jin asked with a smile, with a gentle voice.

Looking at the empress's dazzling face, Feng Yao was in a trance.

As long as he can remember, the Empress has always looked like this, and has never changed. Today, the Empress is nearly forty years old, but still looks like 20 years old. Some people even secretly discuss that Her Majesty the Empress may be a goblin, and only goblins can Will live forever.

Feng Yao knew that Queen Mother was not a goblin, she just wasn't from this world.

More than 20 years ago, she came, and now, she is leaving too.

"Empress, the crabapple flowers in the imperial garden are blooming. Do you want to go and see the empress?"

"Yao'er is invited, there is no reason for me not to go."

When the mother and son arrived at the Royal Garden, the crabapple trees bloomed beautifully, and the spring was infinitely beautiful.

"When you were young, you were still called my mother. I don't know when you became the queen mother. There is always a barrier between mother and child."

Feng Jin said quietly, she still remembered that Yao'er was still young, like a little bun, who sweetly called her mother.

"My son went to school, and the Taifu said that although my mother is my son's mother, she is also my son's king, and I can't overstep in the slightest."

"Qi Heng is getting more and more stupid as he gets older. Fortunately, he has only taught you for three years, and he is old enough to return to his hometown. Otherwise, he doesn't know what he will teach you."

Feng Jin said, her gentle eyes fell on Feng Yao, "Yao'er, in Mother's heart, you will always be Mother's child, not a courtier."

Feng Yao's heart moved, "Emperor Mother, don't you like my minister calling you Empress Mother?"

"do not like!"

Feng Jin frowned slightly, "I don't like you calling yourself a minister either."

Feng Yao's eyes flickered, "Even if you don't like it, the Queen Mother has accepted it for so many years..."

"Yao'er called, mother will naturally answer."

As Feng Jin said, he wanted to rub Feng Yao's hair like he did when he was a child, but found that he was already half a head taller than him. Feng Jin was in a trance, and slowly withdrew his hand.

Feng Yao looked at her, slowly bent down, put her head in front of Feng Jin, then grabbed Feng Jin's hand, and gently put her hand on her hair.

Feng Jin's eyes turned red slightly, and he rubbed Feng Yao's hair.

"Okay, straighten your waist, it's really tiring to bend like this."

Feng Yao straightened up as she said, and accompanied Feng Jin to continue to stroll around the Imperial Garden, "Mother—Mother invited those noble girls to the palace to enjoy the flowers, why did they cancel them all?"

If the mother doesn't like the word mother emperor, he doesn't call it anymore.

"Yao'er doesn't like it, so she cancels it."

Feng Yao's figure froze slightly, he was silent for a moment, turned his face, and looked straight at Feng Jin, "Mother wouldn't do anything that Yao'er doesn't like?"

"Ah."

"What if Yao'er never wants to marry a wife, become an emperor, or take over the Great Zhou Dynasty?"

Feng Jin met his gaze with a gentle smile, and her tone became even more gentle, "Then don't marry a wife, don't become emperor, don't take over the Great Zhou Dynasty, and have a mother."

Feng Yao's eyes flickered slightly, looking at her mother's gentle face, she suddenly felt ashamed in her heart, she didn't even dare to look at her, and turned her face away.

"Mother, what kind of person is Dad?"

"He...he is a very good person. In this world, no one can compare to him."

Feng Yao pursed her lips, but said nothing.

He has seen the portrait of his father and knows what he looks like. He has also heard the story of his father and knows how outstanding he is.

Everyone thought that Daddy must be dead, even he thought so, but Mother always believed that Daddy was still alive.

"Mother, do I look like Daddy?"

Feng Jin smiled slightly, "Didn't you see the portrait of Daddy?"

"I want to hear my mother say it herself."

"Actually...not quite."

Feng Jin's eyes became distant and misty, and his voice was melancholy, hiding strong thoughts, "You are more like me, only your nose is like him, and nothing else."

Feng Yao looked at Feng Jin's expression, and after a long time, she looked away, and asked in a low voice, "Does mother miss Daddy very much?"
