Abandoning concubines and raising children to seize the throne

While talking, Ye Zhan had walked in from outside.

He cupped his hands and said, "See your Majesty!"

Ye Jingyu frowned and said, "No need to be polite. The emperor's uncle entered the palace in a hurry, but what news is there?"

"The minister did something wrong and failed to catch Ashlan's gang members. Ah Chou has not returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion for a day and night. He may have escaped because he knew his identity was leaked. If Wang Shun, who is proficient in disguise, is still with Ashlan , I’m afraid it will be difficult to catch him.”

Ye Zhan lowered his eyebrows and looked ashamed.

Ye Jingyu suddenly understood.

"Uncle Huang means that they will pretend to be other people?"

Hearing this, Yin Qingxuan also frowned.

If this is the case, it will be really difficult to catch him.

If Ashlan cannot be eliminated as soon as possible, everyone will be in danger.

Even tigers nap sometimes. No matter how strict the precautions are, there will inevitably be oversights.

While thinking about it, I heard Ye Zhan say: "That's exactly it."

Ye Jingyu couldn't help but pinch the bridge of his nose, feeling a little more annoyed.

Seeing his frown, Yin Qingxuan hesitated and said, "I can go out of the palace to lure Ashlan into the trap. He has always wanted to take advantage of my eldest brother's reputation. If he sees me appearing, he will definitely show up to meet me."

She was certain about this.

After all, Ashlan said he liked her and said he would send her back to Jiangwu.

"No, now that his identity has been exposed, he may not be as willing to see you as before."

Ye Jingyu refused on the spot. He really didn't want Yin Qingxuan to take risks.

Yin Qingxuan handed the child to Yuncai and motioned for them to go out first.

After a few people left, she said: "I am also a member of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Since I was born in the Great Zhou Dynasty, I should do something for the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty. If Ashlan is allowed to continue to live freely, maybe there will be more troubles. Many imperial officials have been assassinated, and people are now in panic. If the situation is not stabilized as soon as possible, something unexpected may happen, so I ask the emperor to make a decision as soon as possible."

Listening to Yin Qingxuan's sonorous words, Ye Jingyu couldn't help but feel his heart surge.

A woman can still be so patriotic and loving to her family, but those ministers are scheming and each has their own agenda.

Comparing the two, he could not help but admire Yin Qingxuan more than he liked her.

Ye Zhan also glanced at Yin Qingxuan. This woman had extraordinary courage and benevolence. She and his nephew were a perfect match.

But every time I see this face, there will be a faint pain in my heart.

He took a deep breath and said in a low voice: "If there is really no other way, we can only take the risk. Now the enemy is in the dark and we are in the clear. If they set their sights on the courtiers, they will really be unable to prevent them."

Ye Jingyu frowned and said nothing.

If the country needs a woman to protect it, wouldn't he be a failure as a monarch?

Yin Qingxuan added: "Now that the matter is urgent, I hope the emperor will make a decision as soon as possible. I can guarantee that I will return to the palace safe and sound."

She has the powerful golden finger of space, and escape is not a problem at all.

Ye Jingyu didn't want to put her in danger anymore.

He pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Since they want to assassinate me, then I will leave the palace myself."

"emperor!"

The two yelled at the same time.

Yin Qingxuan said anxiously: "The emperor is seriously injured, how can he leave the palace at will? The emperor is the monarch of a country. If something goes wrong, the country will be handed over to others. If the emperor is gone, we, mother and son, will still have a way to survive. ?"

Ye Zhan then said: "What Concubine Yao said makes sense. Your Majesty should know the ambitions of the Queen Mother and Ye Jingyao. If something happens to the Emperor, Ye Jingyao will definitely be the one to take the throne. By then, Zhao'er's existence will be unjust and unjust. Your Majesty You should know what the consequences will be.”

Ye Jingyu hummed, "Then I will send an order to make Zhao'er the crown prince."

Yin Qingxuan said helplessly: "Now I am just a little concubine. If I establish a crown prince at this time, people will definitely criticize me. The emperor is a wise king, so he must not be disturbed by this matter."

Although Yin Qingxuan really wanted Zhao'er to be the prince, she also knew that Ye Jingyu did not want her to be in danger, so he made this move.

People have intentions. Even if she has intentions for Ye Jingyu, she can't ignore his feelings for her. Naturally, she doesn't want Ye Jingyu to fall into the spotlight because of her.

Ye Jingyu couldn't help but hold his forehead, his voice a little irritated.

"It won't work this way, and that won't work either. Do you just want me to sit in the palace and worry about you?"

Ye Zhan bowed and said, "I will be responsible for protecting the safety of Concubine Yao."

Ye Jingyu turned around and asked in a cold voice: "Uncle Huang and I are both dignified men, but it takes a woman to uncover the secrets. Don't you feel ashamed?"

Yin Qingxuan chuckled lightly and said: "I thought the emperor was a wise monarch, different from those common people, but I didn't expect that the emperor would despise women in the world so much. Please forgive me for having the courage to ask where he would come from if he didn't have a woman. Your Majesty? How much pain does a woman have to endure during her ten-month pregnancy? Giving birth is the biggest hell in her life. If you are not afraid of these, why should you be afraid of others?"

Ye Jingyu was slightly stunned. He had never heard such a theory before, and he didn't know how to answer it.

Yin Qingxuan added: "Although I am a woman, I am a commoner of the Zhou Dynasty first, and then the emperor's concubine. If the Zhou Dynasty is infiltrated in this way, the country will not be a country. By then, where will the emperor and the harem come from?" What I did was not just for the emperor, but also for the people of Zhou Dynasty. Once there was chaos in the court, Jiang Wu would definitely break through Tonggu Pass, and I could also guarantee my own safety, because not only Zhao'er was in the palace, but the emperor was also there. !”

At this time, she was still wearing men's clothes, without any makeup on her fair face, and her pair of almond-shaped eyes were firm and bright, like a graceful magnolia in the wind, frail but revealing unparalleled tenacity.

Ye Jingyu was suddenly deeply shocked by these eyes.

He has never seen such resolute eyes, gentle and powerful. What is reflected in her eyes is not little love, but all the people in the world!

The slender fingers slowly came together, and there was a crackling friction sound between the joints.

After a long while, he turned to Ye Zhan.

"Uncle Huang can really guarantee Xuan'er's safety?"

Ye Zhan lifted his robe and knelt down on one knee.

"I am willing to issue a military order and swear to the death to ensure the safety of Concubine Yao."

"Okay, then I... will agree to let Xuan'er rest for the night and leave the palace tomorrow."

Yin Qingxuan was overjoyed, bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Ye Jingyu suddenly felt powerless and slowly sat on the chair.

"Get up, I'm tired, you all should leave."

"Yes, the concubine is retiring."

"My minister retire."

After leaving the Chengtian Palace, Ye Zhan couldn't help but say: "Thank you, Concubine Yao, for being willing to take risks for this matter. Even if I risk my life, I will protect you."

Yin Qingxuan smiled and said lightly: "It's nothing, this is just something that every citizen of the Great Zhou Dynasty will do. Your Majesty, please go slowly. I will return to Jinwu Palace now."

Ye Zhan nodded and watched Yin Qingxuan leave.

Looking at her back, he sighed silently and quickly left the palace.
