wealthy queen

As if afraid that they would regret it, not long after Pei Yuanlie left, the emperor's edict was sent out of the palace in duplicate, one was sent by Yang An to Qingping Palace in person, and the other was posted by the Yulin Army in the downtown area of ​​the imperial city. With 50 troops under pressure, the soldiers approached the city. King Qingping invited himself to fight. Together with his concubine Shen Liang, he will lead the Iron Armored Guards and Nether Dark Guards to fight. Once the news spread, everyone from the rich and powerful to the ordinary people was shocked. , Some are afraid and some are worried, and most of them are sighs and bewilderment. Today's Daqin is like a small boat floating on the boundless sea.

"Have you thought about it clearly, are you really not going to leave with us?"

In the main hall of Prince Qingping's Mansion, Pei Yuanlie rested one hand on the back of Shen Liang's chair, and his exquisite phoenix eyes locked firmly on Yang An who was standing in front of them. Yes, Yang An was his man. To be precise, Yang An An is his father's man. Twenty years ago, his father and concubine were framed by the late emperor. Without anyone's order, Yang An automatically fell under the emperor's command and tried to murder him to avenge his father and concubine. Once in contact with him, he has completely become his person. He can become the chief executive, although he has his own ability, and more of them are their secret assistance and support. Now that he is about to leave, naturally he will also be together Take him away, but Yang An refused. Today he deliberately asked the emperor to send him to announce the decree, just to ask him personally.

"Thank you for your pity, master, the old slave will not be with you."

Raising his head to meet his gaze, Yang An swept away his usual dog legs. The smile on his face was a combination of kindness and comfort. The little master has grown up and is about to fly high. Rest in peace. At this time, he must not hold them back. As the chief executive, he will serve the emperor closely. Once he disappears, the emperor will definitely notice something strange, so he must stay. He can also help to stop them when necessary. For the emperor's people, as long as the little master can lead Xia Guo's army to the imperial city in the future, avenge the wronged masters and vindicate their grievances, he can close his eyes even if he dies.

"Old Yang, why are you bothering?"

With their shrewdness, how could they fail to see his plan?

Lao Lin walked over and put his heavy shoulders on his shoulders. Yang An turned his head to look at his wrinkled old face, and his smile remained undiminished: "What about you? Why bother? The former Crown Prince and the adoptive father have given me the grace of rebuilding , since I have survived these years, I can't just be satisfied with living, if I can't rehabilitate them, even if I die, I won't rest in peace."

No one knew that his adoptive father was the most popular eunuch before the first prince. It can be said that he brought up the first prince. Back then, his family was poor and his parents had no choice but to send him to the palace as a eunuch. At that time, he was only seven years old, but an accident occurred during the castration, and he was almost executed. It was his adoptive father who saved him, and His Royal Highness, who was not much older than him, personally delivered medicine to him and asked him to study Literacy, held his hand and taught him to write stroke by stroke. Afterwards, His Royal Highness originally wanted to keep him by his side, but his adoptive father said that he was here to be a eunuch to serve others, not to be a master. No matter how hard he tried, he never stayed with His Highness the Crown Prince, and no one knew about his relationship with His Highness the Crown Prince. Only he himself always remembered the life-saving and nurturing grace of his adoptive father and His Highness the Crown Prince.

"You have done enough for the father and the king, you don't need to take your own life."

Looking at him, Pei Yuanlie frowned slightly. The emperor had suspected him for a long time. They were fine in the imperial city. Even if the emperor really wanted to kill him, they could find a way to save him, but once they left, it would be beyond their reach. , continue to stay, his life is very likely to be involved.

"Master, don't worry, this old slave has been in the palace for so many years, and he has certain means to save his life. If it is not necessary, this old slave will definitely protect himself first. If possible, this old slave would like to see the masters come to the imperial city with his own eyes. , pull the emperor off his horse, and avenge the old master and the others."

Yang An could also think of the things he could think of, but he didn't care, as early as when the old master and adoptive father were killed, he put life and death aside.

"My lord."

Holding Pei Yuanlie who was about to say something, Shen Liang shook his head in the face of his doubtful gaze, turned to look at Yang An with a smile: "Since you have made up your mind, we will not force you, but I have something to give to you .”

With that said, Shen Liang turned his head and gave some instructions to Yaoguang, who quickly disappeared.

"Princess, please just let me tell you, and I will try my best to do it if I can do it."

Yang An bowed slightly, he knew how powerful the princess was, and he felt more at ease with him by his master's side.

"Ha ha……"

Knowing that he misunderstood, Shen Liang shook his head and chuckled, and when Yaoguang came back, he was holding two small porcelain bottles, one black and one white, and Shen Liang handed them to Yang An: "I made the white bottle by myself. The detoxification pill can cure most common poisons. If one day you find that the emperor has signs of poisoning, let him take the detoxification pill quietly. His life must be saved for us to come back and harvest it ourselves. As for the black bottle , It’s for you, it’s a poison that seals the mouth when it sees blood, even if it gets a little bit of it, it can kill someone instantly, firstly, you can use it for self-defense, secondly, if one day you are exposed and fall into the hands of the emperor If you don't want to be tortured, just swallow it."

"Yes, old slave, thank you, Princess!"

Yang An excitedly clenched the two small porcelain bottles, knelt down and kowtowed deeply to them three times. Although the facial expressions of all the people present did not change much, their hearts became heavier and heavier. The path they chose to take was destined to There will be too many sacrifices.

"This time we evacuated, most of the people in the palace stayed, and you can still use it, as you said, to save your life as much as possible."

Giving him the poison was just in case, and a clean death was better than a tragic death after being tortured in every possible way.

"Yes."

Standing up and responding, Yang An put away the two small porcelain vases: "Master, Wangfei, it's getting late, this old slave should go back, I don't know if there will be a chance to see you again in the future, hope master and Wangfei treasure!"

"You too!"

Mrs. Pei Yuanlie and Mrs. Shen Da stood up together, and several of them clasped their fists in return at the same time. Although Yang An was a eunuch, his integrity was far higher than that of some courtiers.

"Ah."

Finally nodding heavily, Yang An turned around with tears in his eyes, and Lao Lin followed him: "Old man, I'll take you out."

Seeing the backs of the two leaving, everyone in the main hall couldn't calm down for a long time. Some parted and would see each other soon, while others never saw each other again!

Less than three days after the imperial decree was issued, the Iron Armored Guards were ready to go. Before that, Shen Liang had ordered Lei Zhen and Zheng Han to rush to Qinnan City with the imperial decree. Their iron cavalry should not be allowed to trample on the land of Great Qin. At the same time, Pei Yuanlie also mobilized the iron armored guards on the border of Xia Qin with the fastest speed, and asked him to fully assist the Nether Dark Guards. This matter was designed by them. They will naturally clean up the mess.

"princess……"

"The prince is mighty, the armored guard is mighty!"

"May the prince and concubine return in triumph!"

"Defeat the enemy bandits and return in triumph!"

Five days later, Mrs. Qing Ping and Mrs. Shen Da went out at the same time. The moment the gate of the palace opened, the people who had heard the news shouted excitedly. Some of them were more sensitive, and even wiped their tears frequently. The alms shop was closed, but he promised the people that as long as Shen Liang can come back alive, he will reopen the alms shop and continue to benefit the people. Liang gathered outside the palace.

"set off!"

Pei Yuanlie, who was riding on a tall horse, swept away his usual indecency. His dark armor glowed with a cold light, like the god of war descending from the sky, and Huo Yelin and his wife, who were walking side by side, were also majestic. Next, the Iron Armored Guards in black clothes, black armor and black masks, another part of the Nether Dark Guards carrying the Nether flag, and the guards carrying the Huo flag surrounded more than a dozen carriages and moved slowly, and the people blocked outside were excited. He was so excited that he subconsciously made way for them.

"bump!"

When everyone left the palace, the heavy gate of the palace was closed from the inside, and the people sent them all the way, until they were sent out of the east gate, where they joined the Iron Armored Guards and Nether Dark Guards who had gathered outside the city, and sat in a carriage. Shen Liang walked out, stepped on the steed led by Yuan Shao, and rode to Pei Yuanlie's side to stand side by side with him. The couple turned the horse's head and looked at the city gate and the people who didn't want to leave.

"princess……"

Seeing him, the people became excited again, and the voice of shouting almost pierced the sky. Immediately afterwards, starting from the people in front, the people who came to see them off knelt down wave after wave, with chaotic thanks and blessings overlapping ringing.

"Let's go back, my concubine and my lord will definitely keep Chen Guo out of Qin Nan's city, and I won't let any of their soldiers step into my Daqin land. It won't be long before my concubine will return with my lord!"

At that time, he will no longer be Princess Qingping, but Empress Xia!

"Princess take care!"

"Princess take care!"

The people didn't all hear his voice, but they knew that he must have said something to them. The shouts of the people were once again in unison. At the same time, Qin Yunshen, who was dressed in a python robe, looked at him expressionlessly on the tower. The husband and wife riding side by side on horseback focused their eyes on Shen Liang.

Perhaps feeling his gaze, Shen Liang raised his head, and the moment he recognized him, a gorgeous smile bloomed, this was the first time that Shen Liang smiled so brightly at him, Qin Yunshen's heart tightened suddenly, subconsciously Clinging to the city wall, a fear he never had before enveloped him.

"Humph!"

Looking at Shen Liang's line of sight, Pei Yuanlie snorted unhappily, why pretend to be infatuated? A few days ago, he was still in the imperial study room in front of the cabinet ministers, trying to put Liang Liang to death, so he forgot so soon up?

"Come on, he'll be crying soon."

Withdrawing his gaze, Shen Liang gave his lord a smile as warm as sunshine. From this moment on, their fate will be completely rewritten!

"Ah."

Pei Yuanlie nodded and raised his hand: "Let's go!"

Under his command, the ready-to-go army moved away from the imperial city little by little. The common people chased them out and sent them for several miles. Shen Liang, there is no second person to be found.

"Master Hou!"

When the army passed by Fengming Mountain, a monk in cassock and a middle-aged man stood there halfway up the mountain. Both of them remained silent until the army gradually disappeared from their sight.

"Amitabha, may the Buddha bless you."

The monk was none other than Shen Ruiting who became a monk. He folded his palms together and silently recited Buddhist words in the direction where the army disappeared. There was his ex-wife whom he loved most in this life but who owed him the most, as well as his eldest son, second son and grandson. Grandson, after meeting Wei Zeqian, he didn't think about anything anymore, his only hope was that they were safe.
