Although it was a false alarm, Meng Chen's attempt to assassinate Ye Huaiyang still made Chu Jinglan very angry. At that time, he severely punished the imperial guards at Xuande Gate and ordered all Meng family members to accept in advance when entering the palace. Check, if you find a sharp weapon in your body again, you can cut it immediately.

This time I really stepped on his bottom line. I originally wanted to take off the Meng family, but now I can't do it.

Ye Huaiyang looked unhesitating when he saw him for many days, so he didn't even dare to mention the matter. He only asked Crescent to inquire about the situation outside. He heard that Meng Chen was badly injured and lay on the bed for half a month. I kept talking crazy, why would I kill her and destroy Yejia? Later, Meng Qi went to the palace to meet him, but Zhuo Jin blocked him back. He didn’t see Chu Jinglan, and later he went to Chu Zhenghe. After returning to his mansion, the whole person was silent, waiting for the end of the year to marry Meng Chen to Proton Wulun.

On the day of her marriage, Ye Huaili just took advantage of Xunxiu to enter the palace to visit Ye Huaiyang.

A pot of Baiguo tea was steaming white smoke on the marble round table. It was obviously just cooked. The sweet fruity fragrance filled the air, which was inexplicably warming. The two brothers and sisters sat opposite each other on both sides of the circle table. One was wearing an ink brocade robe and the other was wearing a moon-white palace dress. From a distance, they looked like a plain painting of cloud and smoke landscape, which complemented each other perfectly.

"Brother, it's hard for you to hide it from me."

Ye Huaiyang fiddled with the plump strawberries, but didn't mean to eat it. Instead, she stared at Ye Huaili, who was drinking tea lightly, not taking her blame at all. Going on.

"It is because we know that you will stop, my Majesty and I decided to hide it from you."

Ye Huaiyang was angry: "Did I stop it wrong? What if the Meng family incites the Northland army to cause chaos after killing Meng Chen? Not to mention how much trouble will be caused in Gyeonggi, the Northland three states alone will be there. Out of His Majesty’s control, if the Yi people take advantage of the chaos, the northern line of defense will inevitably be opened by a big gap. The consequences are unimaginable! You must know these things better than me. Why don’t you persuade your Majesty?"

"I don't want to persuade." Ye Huaili turned her head and looked out the window, her brows and eyes were covered with frost, "because I want to kill her too."

Ye Huaiyang choked completely.

"Yang'er, I don’t know how your Majesty has lived in the past three months, but I live like a year, and I often dream of my parents at night, and how cautiously I confessed that I would take good care of you and your letter when I dreamed of them leaving. Son, but at that time you died and Xin'er disappeared. When I think of their entrustment, I have a headache and I feel that I will never see them again in this life. Do you understand this feeling?"

"Brother, I..."

Ye Huaili turned her head back and stared at her scorchingly, "At that time, I blamed your majesty for killing you, and I also blamed myself for not doing my best to prevent you from marrying him. I was full of guilt and regret, even in the **** battlefield. Fighting all day without feeling tired and painful, the whole person has been numb, and it is completely with a heart of revenge that I insisted on reaching the capital. Tell me, how can I spare you in this situation People?"

After that, Ye Huaiyang was already tearful in his eyes.

Crescent Moon didn't feel uncomfortable when she heard it, but she handed her a veil and whispered: "Manny, take care of your body."

Ye Huaiyang didn't speak, and threw directly into Ye Huaili's embrace.

"Silly girl, what are you crying?" Ye Huaili embraced her, the cold line of the corner of her mouth finally eased, evoking a shallow arc, "As long as you are safe, I will only treat it as a nightmare. As for Meng's Since you don’t want to move her, I won’t move."

"If you can't move her, your military power has been handed over..."

It is very uncomfortable to think of this Ye Huaiyang. Ye Huaili was born to be a man on the battlefield. Now he has no soldiers and no generals. He is leading an idle position in the court. He seems to be at peace and has never complained about a word, but it must have been With a psychological struggle, Ye Huaiyang knew him so deeply, how could he not understand this?

"Even if there is no Meng family's affairs, I will do it." Ye Huaili supported her shoulders, her eyes were full of affection, "You are in the middle of the palace, and Jiaofang is a pamper, if I still hold the military power. , Will only give those courtiers an excuse to attack you."

A few golden beans fell on the lapels of the clothes again, immersing deep water marks, Ye Huaiyang looked at Ye Huai Li, his heart was already a ball, and it was aching.

"Why do they attack me? I live in the deep palace, and there is your majesty in front of me. What can they do to me?" She was choked again, and her words were out of tune. "It is your ambition to defend the country and I I don’t want you to give up such an important thing for me..."

"The most important thing in my heart is you."

Hearing this, Ye Huaiyang's tears couldn't stop even more.

Ye Huaili sighed slightly, helped her to sit down again, and then carefully wiped away the teardrops hanging on her cheeks, and said softly: "Not only that, Xin'er will resign from the post of Zhongshu servant after the court stabilizes. Come back to deal with family affairs."

"No... don't do this..." Ye Huaiyang shook his head again and again, and the crystals spattered like diamonds.

"Yang'er, listen to me." Ye Huaili calmed her, her eyes were like a sea of ​​slow waves, and she was calm and calm. "The position of the queen is an honor and a challenge. If you want to sit firmly and go hand in hand with him It is bound to sacrifice something, and for us, as long as you live well, we are all satisfied, do you understand?"

Ye Huaiyang bit her lip and gradually calmed down.

Even though there is no suspicion between her and Chu Jinglan, she must be weak if she is strong. This is the rule of the game, and she knows it well. Ye Huaili's doing so not only reduced her pressure, but also reduced the burden for Chu Jinglan. They still have a long way to go in the future to face this erratic court, and they can't delay the starting point.

The elder brothers are all for her good, she understands.

"Brother, I know."

Ye Huaili smiled indifferently: "That's right, take ten thousand steps, even if you don't do it for yourself, you have to consider my nephew?"

Ye Huaiyang murmured, "What if it's a niece?"

"Okay, then niece." Ye Huaili looked at her helplessly, and then added, "Anyway, this time my aunt asked me to bring all the boys and girls' things, it's useless for you to worry about anything. ."

"What if I give birth to a monkey?" Ye Huaiyang deliberately mischievous, but unexpectedly someone outside the door answers.

"The queen is turning around and calling me a monkey?"

Chu Jinglan walked in stride, her clothes fluttered, her demeanor, Ye Huaili hurriedly got up and saluted, but he waved his hand, grabbed Ye Huaiyang, slightly forced people, and taught her that she blushed not to dare anymore. Look straight.

Disgusting, what do you do with such sharp ears.

The two husbands and wives are so close at ordinary times, and they are naturally very accustomed. Ye Huaili has the heart of being a courtier, and soon noticed that the time when Chu Jinglan returned to the palace was unusual. It was just past Shenshi, so he should be at What do you do when you go back to the Taiji Hall to deal with political affairs?

But this is not something he should be concerned about. After coming for so long, it's time to go back.

"The minister will not disturb Your Majesty and Niang Niang, and leave for now."

Chu Jinglan nodded slightly, Ye Huaiyang turned around and called Crescent Moon to send him out, not forgetting to tell him: "Brother, remember to express my gratitude to Auntie for me."

Ye Huai Li nodded and left the Tai Chi Hall immediately.

After stepping back from the palace maidservant, there were only the husband and wife left in the hall. Chu Jinglan sat down with Ye Huaiyang's arms and asked about her physical condition today. Ye Huaiyang answered one by one, and sent Yejia The gifts were opened to him, and there was a golden jade longevity lock, Baifu Lingzhi jacket, and a cradle made of red sandalwood with beasts and flowers carved on it. The workmanship was very exquisite. At first glance, they belonged to a master craftsman. Treasures, I don't know where the Yehuai Li came from, I'm afraid it took a lot of thought.

Chu Jinglan listened patiently from beginning to end, occasionally expressing subtle pleasures, no matter what Ye Huaiyang said, he responded, as if he was indulgent, but Ye Huaiyang was talking but watching. Something was wrong, and I looked at the sky outside the window, and realized it all at once.

Why did he come back this time?

Ye Huaiyang didn't have the time to sigh for his slowness, and decisively stopped pulling him down to watch this and that, and said: "Is there anything wrong with you when you come back?"

"Yeah." Chu Jinglan tucked a strand of her broken hair behind her ears, and said lightly, "I want to go outside the city to pay homage to Yue Qing, can you go with me?"

"Good." Ye Huaiyang didn't hesitate at all.

The winter in the north has been drier, but it has been continuous in recent days. The duckweed has been scattered, the dead leaves have been splashed, and the moist moisture in the mountains and plains has been lifted up.

The mountain road was a bit muddy, and it took a group of people to set foot on the spacious and flat bluestone road. Then the imperial army guarded them. The two walked into the cemetery wearing plain clothes. A crow-blue stone stele was erected in front of it, carved with cinnabar. The two-line seal type characters-the body is dead and the **** is the spirit, the soul is resolute as the ghost.

Looking over the stone monuments, he finally landed on the uplifting back hillside. The decayed grassy land was quiet, full of square tombstones, and the terracotta warriors resembling the Emperor of Qin were lonely and solemn.

This cemetery was buried with countless martyrs who died for the country, and it was Yue Ting's final destination. When he walked to the tombstone, Ye Huaiyang suddenly remembered the scene of his head being hung on the wall to show the public, and couldn't help but feel sad.

When Chu Jinglan saw it, he should be extremely sad, right?

Emperor Father, Uncle Rong, and Master Yue were all elders with deep feelings to him. In the end, only Master Yue was left. Who knows that he didn't even keep him, which is really embarrassing.

Ye Huaiyang tilted her head slightly, but after seeing Chu Jinglan put on the incense, she stopped moving, her thin lips pressed like a blade, with a cold sharp edge, and she stood like a statue in the misty rain and mist, half of her body I didn't even notice it when I was wet. She tilted the magnolia umbrella, and Bo Yi climbed onto his shoulders, and he immediately recovered.

"It's okay." Chu Jinglan spit out two words in a low voice, not knowing whether it was comforting her or herself, and then held the umbrella handle to cover her tightly again.

Ye Huaiyang couldn't figure out what he was thinking, but with a soft heart, he asked in a soft voice: "I don't know if Master Yue has relatives? If they can be placed properly, Master Yue Quanxia should also be relieved. "

Chu Jinglan slowly shook his head.

Others only know how beautiful he is as a powerful official, but they don’t know that his wife passed away early. He has been alone and has no heirs under his knees. When he is alive, he can pass by, and when he is dead, he will appear deserted and lonely. There are no sacrifices.

Ye Huaiyang didn't say anything for a while, her eyes turned inadvertently, and she caught a glimpse of Chu Jinglan's fists clenched tightly, subconsciously stretched her hands over, and then lightly and lightly broke it apart. At this moment, there was a shock in her mind. When she remembered something, she immediately understood.

He was still blaming himself for not being able to prevent Yue Ting's death, nor executing Meng Chen to avenge him.

Thinking of this, she politely persuaded: "Jianlan, let go of this, Master Yue will not blame you."

"Is it?"

He was calm and determined in doing everything on weekdays. He actually showed an uncertain look. It can be seen that Yue Ting's position in his heart, Ye Huaiyang's nose is slightly sour, and he gave the answer without hesitation.

"of course."

There is another reason why she is so sure - rather than smashing Mengchen with a single blow, she is vented for Yue Ting when she is tortured.
