For the next time, the entire harem did not quiet down.

I listened to the restless footsteps all night, and watched the sky look brightly illuminated by the lights of the imperial city. The wonderful words kept digging into my arms, and I held her tightly with my hands.

This is the first time she has met Pei Yuanzhang in the hall. This is also the first time that she truly understands who her father is. I have not given any guidance because if she really does not understand , She would ask, but all night, I only saw her lying in my arms, blinking bright eyes, there may be a flash of doubt light inside, but immediately, another kind of clear Replaced by the light.

I think my daughter can understand.

By the time Tianming Ming, she finally couldn't stand it, and slowly closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

I reached out and took her hand that hugged me from me, covered her with a quilt, and gently got out of bed, opened the window and looked outside. The snow had completely melted, and the wind brought the snow Blowing in cold, it calmed me even more.

Many things have been clear about yesterday, and everything that happened yesterday, but there are still some, and maybe, someone needs to come to my confusion.

After a while, Susu and Wu Yan came. I let them enter the room very quietly, and served me to freshen up until noon, and the wonderful words did not get up. I went to the bed and touched her forehead to find her. A little fever.

It should have been blown by the wind in the hall yesterday.

People rushed to send the medicine, but fortunately the illness was not too serious. She drank the medicine and sweated, but she was not so hot. I let her continue to fall asleep and kept her for a while. In the afternoon, Susu came in and gave me tea, and whispered to me that someone from the queen's mother had also delivered medicine to the room.

As soon as I heard it, I was shocked: "What happened?"

"I heard that the queen maiden also had some fever."

It seems that they were blown by the wind outside the main hall yesterday. Counting it, a queen, a concubine, and a princess fell ill. The harem was full of sickness all at once. It was me, who was as strong as a cow, how could there be a sense of feng shui taking turns.

Thinking of this, I could not help but smile bitterly, looking down at the wonderful words and some red cheeks, and then said to Susu: "You look at it, don't go out and make trouble."

"Miss, are you going to see the Queen Mother?"

"Ok."

Su Su bowed her head for a moment, then said, "Before she, she was hiding from seeing you."

I smiled: "This time, it won't."

I went out of my yard and walked to Chang Qing's side. When I reached the door, I met with them and asked, "I heard that the queen mother is sick?"

"Yeah, some fever."

"is it serious?"

"Yu Yi came over and said, okay."

"Oh……"

I eased my mind a little bit, and a soft, low voice came from the room: "Is it light?"

I responded in a hurry: "Mother Queen, it's me."

"come in."

"Hey."

I nodded at the button, they were also very relieved, holding the empty medicine bowl and turned away.

I walked into the room and smelled a faint smell of medicine in the air. The light was not too bright, because I was afraid of the patient's wind, and the windows were closed. I saw Chang Qing sitting on the bed at once, struggling to stand up, and I was in a hurry. I ran to her, supported her, and took the pillow behind her, and she let out a sigh of relief, then leaned comfortably against the bedside.

With this struggle, her hair was a little messy.

However, no matter how messy, she did not disturb the gentle and quiet eyes, and her peaceful and dignified beauty.

I was about to greet her, and she raised her hand weakly: "Okay, don't come here for these gifts, just sit here. Our palace has no strength now."

I could only plead guilty and sat down to her bedside.

"Mother Queen, how is it now?"

"Drinking medicine is better."

"That's good."

The corner of her mouth raised a slight arc, raised her head to look at me for a while, and then smiled: "You come here, don't you just ask my condition?"

I was silent and nodded.

She still smiled: "What else do you ask, ask."

"..." I was silent again. Actually, I had to ask too many questions, but at this moment I didn't know how to say it. After a while, I finally said, "Yes, was this ready already?"

Her eyes didn't blink, "You mean, my father's business?"

"Ok."

Yesterday, Chang Yanbai even offered his resignation directly.

If not prepared in advance, how could a senior official like him walk around with his resignation?

With his resignation, Nangong Jinhong's line was exposed in front of Pei Yuanzhang. I think at that moment, Nangong Jinhong was afraid that he hated him. Even, I doubt everything before ... ...

I said, "Tai Shi and Lord Nangong ... weren't they all fake before?"

Chang Qing was also silent for a moment, then said gently: "Half true and half false."

"Half-true and half-false? What do you mean?"

"It's fake to use Nishikawa."

"Oh……"

"Killing Liu Qinghan is true."

"……what!"

My heart trembled a little, and I was a little bit caught off guard. The expression of panic and panic in my eyes revealed: "They really want to kill Liu Qinghan?"

Chang Qing lowered her eyelids, looked at her flat, even slightly sunken belly, and said gently, "At the time of the Great Fire in Jixian Temple, my abortion had never been relieved by my father."

My heart was tingling.

Chang Qing said lightly: "I believe in fate, so I believe that if my hit is really destined to be childless, the fire will not be able to make any difference."

"Queen Mother ..."

"But my father couldn't accept it. He kept on Liu Qinghan--" she said, and looked at me again. "So this time, he was also cut out. If he can convince the emperor to start Liu Qinghan, he will Relentless people kill him. "

I shuddered.

After a while, I asked, "So, using soldiers against Xichuan does it mean too much?"

Chang Qing said slowly, "Of course, although he is old, he is not confused."

"..."

"For Nishikawa's use of soldiers, he knows who has benefited."

"..."

"Even if the emperor is stubborn and refuses to kill Liu Qinghan, he will not force it anymore. Because he has already prepared for this matter, whether it is a success or a failure, he will have to retreat quickly."

"So, Master Taishi is ready to resign?"

"Yes."

"But why?" It was said that Bai wanted to kill Liu Qinghan. It would be reasonable to stand on his side. Why would he have to resign and return home after this incident? Does he really reach the point where the mountains and rivers are exhausted?

Thinking of this, I suddenly remembered this period of time, Pei Yuanzhang's attitude towards Chang Qing.

He had considered abolishing Chang Qing and made me the queen.

Could it be that--

Chang Qing looked at my eyes and said calmly and indifferently, "It is only a matter of time before the emperor moves the family and touches me."

I just felt the blood all over my head, and my face was slightly hot: "It's because of--"

"Yes, it's because of the prince."

"..."

I took a long breath.

it is as expected.

The prince reads so deeply, all of this is because of the prince!

Chang Qing said: "The emperor's son-in-law ... has always been relatively thin, and the depth of study has grown day by day. What the emperor had experienced at first, I was afraid he would not run into it."

I nodded.

It ’s true that Pei Yuanzhang ’s children are not too many. One is a idiot, and one is too young. In addition, he deliberately cultivates his thoughts. The Prince ’s throne, as long as there is no accident, is logical. Almost no tragedy such as the defeat of the kings and the blood-stained imperial city.

In this way, Chang Qing will naturally become a queen mother, and Chang's family will naturally take a step forward.

However, too powerful outsiders have always been a threat to imperial power.

Moreover, Nianshen has such a gentle and docile temperament. Pei Yuanzhang can't help worrying about this, so he has to make plans early to curb his foreign relatives. On the side of the Chang family, he either abolishes Changqing or depreciates the common saying.

"Actually," Chang Qing said softly, "I was well prepared and knew that the emperor wanted to abolish me."

My heart trembled suddenly: "Madam ..."

"You don't need to hide me," she looked at me with a smile: "I mean the emperor, I know very well, in fact, if you really abandon me and set you up, it is not a bad thing. Because, at least you ... "

When I heard her saying that, I just felt that my nose was sore and almost all of them were in tears.

I am in this harem, willing or not, and I have stayed for so many years. I have seen too many concubines trying their best to fight for the emperor's favor, even using despicable means. Now, I hear them all. The queen of envy, said such a sentence lightly, only thought that it was ridiculous and pitiful.

The ridiculous ones are those who contend for favor, the poor, this woman who cannot choose.

I gently reached out and held her hand: "Queen Mother."

She looked up at me, and her eyes were red, like helpless and helpless, and said softly, "But you know why my father resigned and I stayed?"

I shook my head: "Why?"

She sighed softly and said, "I haven't had any great ethics in my years as a queen. If I have to say, it is the first of sevens."

"Nothing later?" My face changed: "But--"

"I know what you are going to say, yes, the prince was raised by me, but after all, I was not born, and the emperor wants to abolish me, naturally I have to mention this. But if you really talk about nothing, then read Shen will surely know his life. "

"..."

"Before, the emperor would not mention it, but now, the death of Xu Xianfei has already been revealed, and your crime has been washed out, so the emperor does not worry that there will be other thoughts.

"..."

"But the question is who will be the queen after I was abolished."
