Could it be that the king's dark blue eyes were poked by the Fourth Miss? Because the King deceived the Fourth Miss into blindness, the Fourth Miss left these two marks on the Wang's face. How will the King see anyone later?
"Wang, your eyes..." With a somewhat worried expression, Silver Fox borrowed a bronze mirror from a stall on the side of the street and handed it to Tuo Bo Kun. Tuo Bo Kun looked down and saw his own eyes.
When he opened his panda eyes, the bronze mirror in his hand fell to the ground with a thud.
Seeing this, Silver Fox didn't dare to say anything else. He picked up the bronze mirror and returned it, then drove towards the palace.
In the carriage, Tuobo Kun's brows were always tightened. Is that the man with the black eyes in the mirror just now really him? Although he has always been very confident in his appearance and rarely looks in the mirror, but what he saw just now was that man with black and blue eyes.
The little woman's eyes after the cruel attack were still startled, and she couldn't accept herself like this from the bottom of her heart.
King Tuo began to practice his skills secretly, hoping that when he entered the palace later, the bruises on his eyes would not be so obvious.
…
Mu Liang entered the palace in the Queen Mother's phoenix chariot. Although she had not been officially canonized yet, it was obvious that the Queen Mother already regarded her as the eldest princess of Yuanping! She was treated according to the treatment of the eldest princess. Along the way, Mu Liang
He rarely speaks, and Lotus is waiting on his side, also cautiously.
There was a ping-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong in the carriage of King Liao just now. I thought that the injured one must be Miss Nalan. Who would have thought that Miss Nalan actually came out safe and sound! How could such a commotion happen in King Liao's carriage?
It is indeed a miracle that Miss Nalan, the Fourth Miss, was able to escape unharmed despite the big noise.
He Hua is the old man next to the Queen Mother, and he is very knowledgeable about the sophistication of people. He was respectful to Mu Liang along the way, but Mu Liang always had a lukewarm attitude, which made He Hua dare not take it lightly.
It was still noon, but the Queen Mother's Kunning Palace was lifeless. It was shrouded in clouds and there was no lively and lively atmosphere.
Mu Liang walked into Kunning Palace step by step, and saw the Queen Mother sitting in a daze beside the soft couch in the middle. Su Su was waiting for her. When Mu Liang walked in, Su Su walked around to the Queen Mother and reminded her softly,
"Queen Mother, Miss Nalan is here"
After Su Su finished speaking, the Queen Mother raised her head and looked at Mu Liang. She sighed before saying anything, "Hey, Mu Liang girl, come and sit here."
The Queen Mother's voice was hoarse, and she bowed with a trace of exhaustion. She walked to the Queen Mother and sat down seemingly casually. The Queen Mother held her hand, with a worried look on her face, which was completely different from the one she had seen in Weiyang Maple Leaf a few days ago.
The empress dowager who had a cordial conversation with a group of senior ministers was such a sweet and kind empress, but now the empress dowager looked gloomy, as if she had encountered some serious blow.
Mu Liang sat there quietly with lowered eyes. The Queen Mother did not speak, and she did not take the initiative to ask questions. The Queen Mother had also seen Mu Liang's ability to remain calm earlier. Now looking at her smart and indifferent profile, the heaviness in her eyes could not help but return.
Deeper
"Girl Mu Liang, this... the sky in Beiliao is probably going to change."
The Queen Mother finally couldn't help it. As soon as the words came out, she felt tears filling her eyes. She shouldn't be so vulnerable in front of her juniors, but for some reason, the Queen Mother felt faintly in her heart that this Nalan Muliang could help Beiliao survive.
The perfect candidate for this difficult time
But she is the one who succeeds, and she is also the one who fails! Everything depends on whether she can cooperate this time!
Mu Liang's lowered eyes didn't move at all, and then a cold voice faintly sounded, "Much Liang doesn't understand what the Queen Mother means."
The Queen Mother sighed and waved all the maids around her to leave. Even the lotus flowers were taken away by the Queen Mother, leaving only Su Su.
"Girl Mu Liang, your imperial brother... is the emperor who was infected with a serious disease three days ago. He is bedridden and is in critical condition. The emperor has not appointed a prince. Today is the girl Mu Liang who announced the news. Don't be shocked. The emperor has established a prince." The prince... is Lao Jiu."
After the Queen Mother finished speaking, Mu Liang's pupils lifted slightly, but only for a moment before they dropped again.
Isn’t Laojiu Yelvsong? What kind of joke did Emperor Liao make?
Not to mention that Yelvsong was young and had nothing to do all day long. He didn't even have any real rights in his hands. The Emperor of Liao made him the prince. Where did this put Yelvzongxiao? The Emperor of Liao originally rewarded Yelvzongxiao. When entering the courtyard, the three words "Tianjiao Mansion" were given, which means the proud son of heaven! Everyone in the entire Northern Liao Dynasty knows who does not know, and this Yelu Zongxiao is the best candidate for the crown prince in the heart of the Liao Emperor!
No matter how you rank, Yelvsong cannot be ranked! The Liao Emperor also has Yelu Xiran, who made a mistake three years ago and was sent to the border. It is said that the Liao Emperor's favorite son was actually Yelu Xiran. Later, because of Yelu Xiran, he made a mistake. Only then did he turn his attention to Yelu Zongxiao.
Is the Liao Emperor sick and confused? How can Yelvsong take up the position of crown prince with such a temper?
"Later, the Ai family will announce this decision on behalf of the emperor. At that time, what will be the attitude of the civil and military officials of the court? You, the girl from Muliang, are a smart person. Naturally, you can think of this secret. Only you know it, I know it, the emperor knows it, and then Su Su knows that although the Ai family has met you twice, they like you from the bottom of their hearts. He is also assured of your temperament. Although you have not been officially canonized, the Ai family has already regarded you as a member of the Northern Liao royal family!
Mu Liang girl, the important task of reading out the emperor’s imperial edict will be left to you in the Aijia..."
When the Queen Mother said this, she took out a roll of imperial edict from her sleeve and held it solemnly in front of Mu Liang's eyes.
Su Su looked at the Queen Mother helplessly. The Queen Mother felt more uncomfortable than anyone else at the moment. The Emperor was suffering from a strange illness and was getting worse. He had been tortured by the disease in the past three days. The reason why the Queen Mother handed over the imperial edict to Nalan Mu Liang was also forced to come up with such a strategy that can be used to advance, retreat and defend in one move.
If it were read out by the Queen Mother in person, then the Queen Mother and the Liao Emperor generally agreed with this decision. How could the Third Highness be convinced? How could the Third Highness’s party members in the court be convinced? And when it was read by Nalan Muliang, she She is the eldest princess of Yuanping, so her status is not a big deal, but she only represents the Liao Emperor. In this way, the Queen Mother can comfort the frustrated Yelu Zongxiao in a neutral capacity!
Stabilize the overall situation for the time being!
Although the Queen Mother did not agree with the decision of the Liao Emperor, the Emperor Liao insisted on speaking out the decision even though he was seriously ill, and warned the Queen Mother to be careful about Yelu Zongxiao. After fighting in the harem for so many years, the Queen Mother also felt that Seeing the danger and hidden secrets in this, it is impossible for Emperor Liao to suddenly lose confidence in Yelu Zongxiao. The real reason for this can only be known after Emperor Liao wakes up!
Now what the Queen Mother has to do is to find ways to stabilize Yelu Zongxiao!
And the best candidate to read out the imperial edict is naturally Nalan Muliang!
Nalan Muliang was the object of admiration for the King of Liao and the Prince of Persia. Even the eldest young master of the Bai family treated her differently. If she came to read out the imperial edict, no one would dare to raise any objections! Because of the three parties behind Nalan Muliang. , no party can easily shake it!
For the first time, the Queen Mother realized what it means to use external power to control internal commotion! It is only the most dangerous move and the only feasible one at the moment.
The emperor was seriously ill and the people were in turmoil. The Liao Emperor did not elect the popular Yelu Zongxiao, but chose the notorious Yelu Song. This was a risky move. The Queen Mother had to make a desperate decision.
Mu Liang looked at the glittering imperial edict in front of him. With the Queen Mother's expression of expectation and entrustment, he raised his hand and lightly touched the edge of the imperial edict silk, and then gently held it in his hand. The expression on his face was calm. The Queen Mother saw this. , and Su Su looked at each other, and felt that a big stone in their hearts had finally been let go.
But the cold expression on Mu Liang's face made the Queen Mother unclear about her mood and anger at the moment.
"Girl Mu Liang, old lady, I know this is making things difficult for you, but now..."
"The Queen Mother, I want to meet Yelu Song in my sachet." Mu Liang interrupted the Queen Mother lightly. She already understood what the Queen Mother meant, so there was no need to waste time with the Queen Mother. She had accepted the imperial edict, but she would not read it out at that time. Reading, and how to read is in her hands
But think about it, when Yelu Zongxiao heard the content of the imperial edict, his expression must have been very wonderful.
The Queen Mother was stunned, obviously not expecting Mu Liang to make this request, but then she thought about it, when they were in the Royal Academy, Mu Liang and Yelv Song were both in Class 11, and Yelv Song's child seemed to be obsessed with Mu Liang. Although the Queen Mother was worried that Yelvsong would spoil the matter because of her feelings for Mu Liang, she couldn't justify not agreeing to Mu Liang at the moment.
"Su Su, take Mu Liang girl to the Imperial Garden. Lao Jiu should be ready."
"Queen Mother, from now on you should be called Prince." Su Su nodded, not forgetting to remind the Queen Mother in a low voice. Both of them had worried expressions on their faces.
The Queen Mother nodded helplessly and wanted to say something else, but in the end she waved her hand tiredly and let Mu Liang go.
Mu Liang and Su Su walked out of Kunning Palace and walked along the exquisite and luxurious corridors of the palace. Su Su lowered her head and opened her mouth several times to say something to Mu Liang, but she couldn't help but swallow the words. Went back
"Auntie, what do you want to ask me? Don't you feel uncomfortable even though you hesitate to speak?" Mu Liang is a straight-tempered person. Su Su hesitated several times along the way, which made Mu Liang really irritated. Her principle is to speak quickly when she has something to say. Fart quickly!
Su Su blushed and smiled awkwardly at Mu Liang. Unexpectedly, Mu Liang saw through and touched her face. She slowed down and asked Mu Liang softly,
"Princess, do you still have an impression of your mother? Is she... as beautiful as a fairy, unmatched by anyone in the world?" After Su Su finished speaking, a flash of sadness flashed in her eyes.
Mu Liang looked straight ahead and said lightly, "I have no impression for a long time. As for whether you are as beautiful as a fairy, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. If you care about the person who loves you, how can you compare you with other women? Do you have to be fatter and thinner than a ring-shaped swallow? And if there is no one in the world, it is even more unanswerable. There are talented people in the country. The young are better than the blue, and the ones who come after them will be better! Therefore, although there is a saying that is straightforward, but But it’s the truth
There is no best, only better!”
After Mu Liang finished speaking, he felt ashamed for this... It should be the advertising slogan of a certain car.
But now it is most appropriate to give it to Su Su. Mu Liang knew that Su Su had been following Nalan Minghui all these years. Even in the uninhabited Gobi Desert, she followed her silently. A woman does not seek fame or fortune. The wind blows The most beautiful years of your youth are spent in the sun, not for love, there is really no other way to explain it.
Now that Su Su is thirty years old, she is considered a leftover woman in modern times, and here she is already past the age of marriage.
Mu Liang will not be paranoid about thinking that Nalan Minghui has delayed Su Su's future. Nalan Minghui has something he can't let go of, and Su Su can't let it go!
Su Su's eyes turned red, and then she forced a forced smile and spoke in a hoarse voice, "Princess, I understand that Su Su can't get in..." She can't get in that man's heart.
Mu Liang gave Su Su a cold look and said coldly,
"You don't understand at all!" Mu Liang's words made Su Su startled and looked at her blankly.
"You have worked for that person for so many years, forcing yourself to transform from a common lady to a strange woman who can survive in the desert. Why don't you have the courage to find that person and have a head-on confrontation? Have you ever asked him face to face in these years?
Heart! Have you spoken out clearly and asked him if you still have a chance? If not, let him give you a happy message so that you can give up and start your new life as soon as possible!
You didn’t ask, and he didn’t want to make you look bad, and he didn’t even say anything, just because you thought you still had a chance, and he just thought that you would leave on your own initiative after experiencing some setbacks! You both held in your breath,
In the end, the one who suffers the most is naturally you! He has so many wives, concubines, and children. Have you ever lived in such a hazy state for so many years in the midst of disappointment, hope, disappointment, and hope again and again? No one is forcing you.
Being so painful doesn't force you to be so persistent. You are wrong and he is also wrong. Except that there is nothing wrong with you falling in love with someone and him not being able to let go of someone else, both of you are completely wrong in other aspects!"
