Unable to control the happiness in her heart, Ximen Yourong's tears naturally fell. She seemed to be moved endlessly, and she half-certainly and half-guessed:
"Your Majesty, you found this "Proud Fairy" and planted it in front of Ximen's ancestor's grave. You want the people to remember Ximen's ancestor's unparalleled contribution to Dacheng again. You want to use the hearts of the people to release the Dongling clan's only right to all the powerful people.
Things are different, and one code is the same. I was chosen to be your queen by the joint oath of Dongling ancestors and Ximen ancestors, but there are still many people who secretly do not recognize my status. They just dare not violate Dongling
The oath of our ancestors is why we remain silent, but that does not mean that they are happy to see me well."
"The previous wave of attacks against me has proved that there are indeed many people who hope that I will not be your queen. In order to prevent those people from attacking me, Your Majesty has made every effort to prevent those people from attacking me, so this "Proud Fairy" appeared.
Beautiful talk in front of Ximen’s ancestor’s grave.”
Dongling Yuanyong wiped her tears. He did not comment on what she said. He smiled a little and asked:
"Now do you know what kind of existence you are to me?"
He really worked hard for her. In fact, she was right, there were indeed some ministers who did not recognize her status.
But that group of people are just taboo about Ximen Yourong's origin, and they are worried that she has the intention to restore Ximen.
After all, they don't want to see Dacheng fall into turmoil again in the future.
Therefore, Dongling Yuanyong thought of asking the ancestors of Dongling and Ximen to "reappear" to jointly protect Dacheng.
A hundred years ago, the ancestors of Ximen created a great legacy for the ancestors of Dongling through fire and water. A hundred years later, the ancestors of Ximen will once again "predict" with Fairy Ao that the Ximen family will continue to help the Dongling family prosper.
Of course, the so-called omen does not exist at all, it is just Dongling Yuanyong's arrangement. His purpose is not only to counterattack You Kouyi's secret rumors and frame-up against Ximen Yourong, but also to make those who intentionally or unintentionally exclude Ximen Yourong
The generous minister put aside his prejudice against her.
The reason why he wanted "Fairy Ao" to bloom in front of Ximen's ancestor's grave for a month was naturally to draw on the legend of "Fairy Ao".
Folks have long believed that the "Proud Fairy" is not only a symbol of the mother of the country, but also that if the flowers bloom for a full month, it will be a rare and prosperous time.
Because of this omen, when the ancestors of Dongling established the Dacheng a hundred years ago, there was a grand scene of "Proud Fairy" blooming for a month and then fading.
Since then, the people of Dacheng firmly believe that a prosperous age will come when "Ao Fairy" blooms in January.
But for more than a hundred years, not to mention that the world has been able to see the "Ao Fairy" blooming for a month, even the traces of the "Ao Fairy" have been rarely discovered.
The reason why Dongling Yuanyong could easily find this "Proud Fairy" was because his master, the old doctor ghost, mentioned before leaving the imperial city that he found a rare "Proud Fairy" growing on a cliff.
in the cave.
Not only was Dongling Yuanyong no stranger to "Fairy Ao", but because of the relationship with the old medical ghost, he had long known that his own blood had a very good protective effect on "Fairy Ao".
Because he once saw the old doctor ghost raising a "Proud Fairy" plant with blood for more than a month.
Later he found out that it was because the blood of people who practiced the "burning soul" internal skill was different from ordinary people, so his blood could make "Proud Fairy" prosperous forever!
This was also when Ximen Yourong was maliciously slandered, and he came up with the idea of using "Fairy Ao" to completely turn things around for her.
Ximen Yourong naturally knew that he had put a lot of thought into this. Although she was moved, she could not help but say with some worry:
"Your Majesty has considered me, and I am very grateful. But in this case, wouldn't it mean that Your Majesty is deceiving the people and officials? If the matter is exposed by someone who is interested, His Majesty's authority will be affected, and I absolutely do not want to see such a result.
.”
Ximen Yourong's worries came from the bottom of her heart. Dongling Yuanyong had no doubt about this. She was finally willing to reveal her inner thoughts naturally in front of him. He was overjoyed because Ximen Yourong was with him invisibly.
!
However, regarding her worries, he pretended to spread his hands and said:
"If someone really reveals the secret of "Proud Fairy", I have nothing to be afraid of. Anyway, at worst, I will say that it was the queen who flirted with me, which is why I lost my mind and did such an unfair thing.
Come."
If one hears his words carefully, people will think that he is using Ximen Yourong as a backer.
But Ximen Yourong snuggled into his arms and said with a smile:
"Okay, Your Majesty, let's just say this. I am the one who flattered Your Majesty, and everything is my fault!"
She knew in her heart that he was joking, but her answer was not a joke. If one day his imperial power would be damaged because of her, she would be willing to bear all the blame.
Dongling Yuanyong's body trembled because of her serious words, and he blurted out:
"Why is it all your fault?"
"How your majesty protects me, I will protect your majesty's imperial power from threats!" If he sacrifices himself to protect her, she will sacrifice herself for him!
"Rong'er, in this life, with your sincerity, I am not afraid of any threats!" Dongling Yuanyong's face was full of affection. He put his hand on her soft chest and asked: "Can you give me that heart in you?"
Yet?"
Ximen Yourong returned her spring look, she smiled and put her hand on the back of his hand and said:
"Didn't His Majesty just ask me if there is any place where I want to indulge?"
"Then do you have...?" He really wanted to know her answer!
"Yes, always have! In the past, I wanted to leave the Ximen clan and indulge in the vast world. Later, I wanted to break away from the shackles of the queen, stay away from the palace and settle down in a place where no one knows me. Now...!"
She looked at him with her eyes full of smiles and wanted to speak, but he continued to ask despite her erratic heartbeat:
"Now...how?"
Ximen Yourong didn't answer him immediately. She raised her hand and touched the corner of his eye lightly, and then said:
"In the past, Your Majesty did not exist in the world I wanted. Now, Your Majesty has filled my world!"
Yes, he occupied her world!
Before today, Ximen Yourong didn't dare to follow her with such determination. When she saw Xue'er who was still alive today, her heart had actually completely surrendered to him.
The reason why she proposed to come to Ximen's Cemetery was actually because she had already guessed how "Fairy Ao" lived against the odds.
The moment it was confirmed that he "raised flowers with blood", the remaining hesitation and lack in her heart just disappeared, and what was replaced was the wholehearted following of him that no longer hesitated!
Her determination was so true and sincere that Dongling Yuanyong's restless heart fell to the ground. He lowered his head and expressed his indescribable emotions to her with a kiss...!
A love that would have been impossible was decided in front of "Fairy Ao" and the ancestor Ximen!
At this point, they don't know whether they can remain peaceful in the years to come, but there is no doubt that they will work together!
Perhaps because her heart was clear, Ximen Yourong seemed very relaxed on the way back to the palace. She opened the curtain of the car window and looked at the green scenery outside. Then she closed her eyes and gently breathed in the spring breeze blowing from outside. She had been there for a long time.
I no longer feel the wantonness of being in the wild.
Dongling Yuanyong looked at her charming profile quietly. If she enjoyed the scenery outside, then she would be the scenery in his eyes.
However, she had been staring outside for a long time, so long that he felt that she was ignoring him.
Just then, something suddenly occurred to him that he had never solved his doubts about before.
He reached out and pulled Ximen Yourong back to him, looked at her and complained clearly:
"Is it that beautiful outside?"
"looks good!"
Ximen Yourong smiled widely. The roads were full of colorful wild flowers and the air was fragrant. She liked it very much.
"Better looking than me?"
Looking at her infatuated eyes, Dongling Yuanyong curled his lips, feeling very uncomfortable, because her infatuation had nothing to do with him.
Ximen Yourong saw that his little mood was not so beautiful. She put her hands on his arms and leaned on his shoulders, looking up at his unhappy face and chuckled:
"Your Majesty, it looks soothing to both the heart and the eyes. It looks much better than outside!"
"fraud!"
Dongling Yuanyong pinched her soft cheek. He didn't believe her sweet words at all.
Ximen Yourong didn't refute him. She just raised her lips and smiled affectionately without saying a word. She knew that he was not really angry with her.
Dongling Yuanyong didn't ask her to ignore his topic and say anything else, but he turned to ask her another thing thoughtfully:
"Rong'er, what "flame" did you just say? Is it medicine or something...?"
He remembered to ask her about "flame" because he knew that there was a poison called "red flame", and it always sounded like it had something to do with "flame", so he was a little curious.
Ximen Yourong didn't know why he suddenly mentioned "flame", but she answered truthfully:
"The flame is a semi-antidote specifically for the cold poison in my body. As long as the flame blends with the hot water, I soak it in and inject myself with needles to open the acupuncture points in advance so that the effect of the flame can enter my body. Then I will be poisoned."
It will feel better then."
"It sounds like the medicinal effect of flames is mainly "yang fire", so what would happen if ordinary people were immersed in it?"
Ximen Yourong's eyes widened. His seemingly casual question made her sensitively aware that he had ulterior motives. She also vaguely guessed what he really wanted to ask. She pursed her lips and smiled and said:
"Your Majesty would like to ask why your body felt so unbearably hot after your Majesty saved me from my first poisonous attack after our wedding?"
"So, my being like that really has something to do with being soaked in flames?"
Dongling Yuanyong asked this question. He remembered that that night he always felt so hot that he had nowhere to vent, and it was difficult to restrain himself.
But the strange thing was that just as her cold poison was recurring intermittently, he kept giving her luck to drive away the cold.
In the end, her cold poison was driven away by him, and his fever calmed down because he had an outlet.
Ximen Yourong nodded and explained:
"Fire is not suitable for men to soak in, so Your Majesty will feel... uncomfortable after soaking in it!"
Seeing her face turn red, Dongling Yuanyong had already guessed what was going on. He squinted his eyes and asked as if he wanted to settle accounts with his wife:
"So, you know that the deer antler soup brought by You Kouyi is not suitable for me to drink, but you remain silent and don't care whether I live or die?"
This hateful woman must have known very well that he should not drink that deer antler soup due to his condition at that time, but she still walked away happily!
