After the maid went in to report, she came out again.
"Princess Liyue, you can go in now."
Huangfu Liyue followed the maid into the Queen's bedroom.
The queen stood in front of the window, hugging the all-white cat, looking out of the window with a sad face.
Realizing that Huangfu Liyue came behind her, she didn't turn her head back, and said lightly, "Are you sure you don't want to leave?"
"I can't leave my daughter here alone, Your Majesty, as a mother, you should understand how I feel."
The queen turned around slowly.
"So, why did you come to see me?"
Huangfu Liyue said frankly: "I need your help."
The queen stroked the white cat in her arms and said calmly, "I can't help you."
Huangfu Liyue's expression was firm.
"How do you know if you don't try?"
The Queen came interested.
"try?"
"You have lived under the control of your grandmother for so many years, haven't you thought about resisting?"
"Resist?"
The Queen raised her lips, but remained silent.
If she can resist, why wait until now?
Huangfu Liyue knew her difficulties, and said again: "The reason why you can't fight against your grandmother is because the power of Country E is in her hands. Have you ever thought about taking this power back?"
The queen raised her eyebrows, then smiled.
"Naturally, I thought about it. Who would like to be controlled by others all their lives? However, things are not as simple as you think.
Who is the grandmother, her mind is more exquisite and transparent than anyone else.
What I can think of, she has naturally thought of it long ago, and it is longer than I thought. "
Huangfu Liyue said seriously: "You are the current queen, she is not qualified to hold the power in her hands, even if the hope is slim, you should give it a try."
"It's useless."
The queen dismissed her words indifferently.
"The most powerful army in country E is the dead soldier army founded by grandfather. Although this army has only tens of thousands of people, each dead soldier in it can be worth one hundred.
You should have also seen the power of the dead soldiers. They are not afraid of any weapons at all, and they can easily complete difficult tasks.
As long as the army of dead soldiers is in the hands of my grandmother, even if I gain power, I will not be able to fight against her. "
Huangfu Liyue asked: "Your Majesty, I have a question. Since your grandfather founded this army of dead soldiers, why did they obey your grandmother's orders?"
The Queen slowly put down the white cat in her hand and watched it run away.
"Back then, after my grandfather founded the Army of Dead Soldiers, he ordered skilled craftsmen to cast a jade plaque.
This jade tablet, called the Military Order of the Dead, is specially used to dispatch the dead.
A dead soldier sees the military order as if he saw his grandfather. After the grandfather abdicated, the military order fell into the hands of the grandmother, and has been to this day. "
Huangfu Liyue immediately said: "So, if you can get the order of the dead soldiers, your grandmother won't be able to suppress you anymore?"
The queen frowned slightly.
"Having said that, how easy is it to get a military order?"
Huangfu Liyue's eyes were fixed.
"So, do you know where the military order is?"
"Grandmother has lived in the Black Tower for a long time. If I'm not mistaken, the military order should be in the Black Tower."
Knowing this, Huangfu Liyue seemed to see hope.
"Queen, then we can try it!"
The queen shook her head.
"It's not as simple as you think, although there are no guards around the black tower, it is actually under the control of grandma, without her permission, no one is allowed to approach the black tower.
I have lived in the castle for many years, and the number of times I have been to the Black Tower is very few. I only know that there are countless dead men in the Black Tower, and there are many invisible dangers.
It's my grandmother's territory alone, and it's a fool's dream for outsiders to get close to her. "
Huangfu Liyue was silent for a while, and then boldly suggested: "Queen, let me try it!"
There was a trace of surprise in the queen's eyes, and then she refused.
"If you go to the Black Tower alone, there is only one way to die."
Grandmother was already very dissatisfied with her, if she entered the black tower alone, wouldn't it be like a sheep going into a tiger's mouth?
Huangfu Liyue knew the Queen's concerns, and said calmly: "Don't worry, Queen, I'm not stupid enough to brag about entering the Black Tower. What I mean is, please help me enter the Black Tower, Queen!"
"I?"
The queen frowned, and immediately understood what she meant.
"Do you want to disguise yourself as a maid next to your grandmother and sneak into the Black Tower?"
"Do not."
Huangfu Liyue looked at her squarely and said: "If you pretend to be a maid, you won't be able to escape your grandmother's piercing eyes, I mean, a dead man!"
The queen's face darkened slightly.
In the Black Tower, apart from the grandmother, there are countless dead soldiers and two maids trusted by the grandmother.
Those two maids have been with grandmother for many years, no matter how Huangfu Liyue pretends, it is impossible to imitate them exactly in a short time.
But the dead are different.
The dead man was dressed in a black robe, with a mask hanging on his face, and only a pair of eyes were exposed all over his body. No one knew what kind of face was behind the mask.
If you want to pretend to be a dead soldier, it's much easier.
But even so, the queen is still very worried.
"The dead soldiers are different from ordinary soldiers. They are agile and move extremely fast. They are not so easy to imitate. If grandma finds out the clues, you will have no chance to get out of the black tower."
"I understand, but please promise to help the queen. For my daughter, I am willing to give it a try!"
Seeing that her attitude was so firm, the Queen's brows were a little more sad.
"Think about it clearly. The Black Tower is an extremely dangerous place. If something happens, I won't be able to protect you."
Huangfu Liyue didn't hesitate at all.
"Queen, I have thought clearly!"
The Queen sighed.
"Okay, I will send someone to monitor the situation at the Black Tower as soon as possible, and look for suitable opportunities."
"Thank you Queen!"
After discussing this matter, Huangfu Liyue suddenly remembered what the maid said just now, and asked again: "Queen, just outside the door, I heard from the maid that there will be a ceremony to recognize the ancestor and return to the clan in the next two days, so that my daughter can join the Ji family." Spectrum?"
When this matter was mentioned, the queen's face changed visibly with the naked eye.
"That's right, grandma has asked me to arrange it as soon as possible, but don't worry, I will try my best to delay this matter for a few days."
Huangfu Liyue was puzzled.
It's just a ceremony to recognize the ancestors and return to the clan. Why is the maid at the door amazed and the Queen looks very worried?
"Queen, is there any particularity to this ceremony of recognizing ancestors and returning to one's clan?"
The queen explained: "You are not from country E, so you don't know the rules of our royal family. To recognize your ancestors and return to the clan, you must accept the 'cane cane punishment'. Your daughter is young, so I'm afraid she won't be able to bear it."
"Punishment with the rattan whip?"
"In short, it is to use a special cane to beat the body until fainting, and then wash the body's filth before inheriting the title of the royal family. It means rebirth, forgetting the past, and starting a noble royal life."
After the words fell, the queen raised her cuffs, revealing half of her arms.
Huangfu Liyue could clearly see the several criss-cross welt marks on her arms, which seemed to be quite old.
"Princess Liyue, you can go in now."
Huangfu Liyue followed the maid into the Queen's bedroom.
The queen stood in front of the window, hugging the all-white cat, looking out of the window with a sad face.
Realizing that Huangfu Liyue came behind her, she didn't turn her head back, and said lightly, "Are you sure you don't want to leave?"
