The queen is a bit cowardly

Fengxiang Palace in Qipeng City

Today Fu Wang Jiang Chiyuan sits alone on the throne. In his palace, only a few ministers kneel in the center. Looking at the crowns on their heads and the robes on their bodies, they know that they are not important duties. Qing and their officials had gone to Jiangcheng, and he was placed in the palace like a decoration, accepting the worship of a group of dispensable people.

"All ministers, what is there to present today?" The servant stood beside King Fu, looking at the few courtiers, most of whom were obsequious.

"So there's nothing to play?" The waiter then asked, thinking it's best to be fine.

Sure enough, the hall was quiet, and the servant turned to Jiang Chiyuan and said, "Your Majesty, there is nothing to do today."

An eunuch talked to the lord, but it seemed to be the same as above, he looked at his lord calmly, as if waiting for him to retreat on his own initiative.

Jiang Chiyuan clenched his fists tightly, and his face had already revealed a trace of displeasure. Since Jiang Qingluan's incident, his court had been cold for a month. Before that, all major affairs in the court were decided by Jiang Cheng, but he was still the supreme monarch. Shang Shang still has his own right to speak.

"Your Majesty, there is nothing to repay the merits of the ministers." The servant reminded again.

The Highness did not announce the dismissal of the court, but got up with some anger, brushed the sleeves over the desk, and the pen on the desk fell to the ground.

"Separate the court." The servant shouted, and sat down and sang long live to see off the current King Fu.

Jiang Chiyuan came out of the main hall, and the servants around her hurriedly pulled the carriage over. Jiang Chiyuan didn't want to ride in the carriage, or didn't care to see the servants sent by Jiang Cheng, so she swayed her black wide sleeves and went He left for his bedroom, and the servants behind him hurriedly followed, fearing that something might go wrong.

Jiang Chiyuan kept walking forward, maybe out of instinct, or out of habit, he went straight to the harem, and he didn't know how long he walked, stopped outside a palace gate, looked up , There are three characters hanging on the gate of the palace: Sparrow Branch Terrace.

"Your Highness, why did you come here?" The servant who followed behind finally followed up, and he asked pantingly.

"Bugu's palace, do I have to tell you where Bugu is going?" Jiang Chiyuan said, kicking the little servant to the ground.

"Concubine Zeng hanged herself here. This place is ominous." The servant said, "I'm afraid that His Highness will be insulted, so His Highness should go back."

This concubine Zeng is the daughter of Zhenying Bo's family in Zhenyang County. The Zeng family in Zhenyang County is also from the Jiang family. Among the elders, there is also a family member who lives in Jiangcheng, which is the largest family among foreign surnames.

Jiang Chiyuan tightly closed her lips. She has been the king of Fu Kingdom for more than five years. She once thought that she really held great power, but in the end she was just a pawn for others. The concubine Zeng was originally her favorite woman, and she originally wanted to give birth to a son. You can be made a wife, but Jiang Cheng didn't even agree with this, he just found a reason to kill Concubine Zeng. Dare to say, recently I heard that a female ghost outside Jiangcheng City is causing trouble, and I don't know if it is because the unjustly killed person is unwilling to leave.

"Your Highness..." the little servant reminded: "Go back."

Fuyang County Dungeon

The former young master of Fuyang County probably never thought that he would be imprisoned in the dungeon of his own city. He himself killed many people here.The damp and cold air in the dungeon was extremely cold, there were prisoners moaning everywhere, some of them he knew, they were officials from counties and counties, some of them looked familiar to him, they were the criminals he had sent in before, now they Just like everyone else, no matter how different they are, they are all Jiang Qingluan's prisoners.

"Jiang Xuanfei." A voice appeared from the darkness, it was a woman's voice, cold and without any emotion.

"Who are you?" Jiang Xuanyu asked vigilantly. In fact, he knew who the other party was without even thinking about it: "Jiang Qingluan?"

"Yes, my cousin." The voice came closer, and a figure came out from the darkness.

Jiang Xuanyu raised his eyes, and he still had some impressions of that face. When Wei Ji got married that year, he and his elder brother Jiang Chiyuan personally sent her to Qipeng. That was the first time he saw Jiang Qingluan. , mighty.There are a group of burly barbarian generals around him, but they are willing to put their hearts to the ground for Jiang Qingluan.Jiang Xuanfei thought that the king should be like this, but he arbitrarily replaced him.

However, luckily, Jiang Qingluan was replaced by his weak brother.

"A traitor."

"A traitor?" Jiang Qingluan sneered. Ever since he returned to Fu Kingdom, he was often scolded like this on the battlefield.

"Rebel," Jiang Xuanyu looked at Jiang Qingluan coldly, and said again: "You have been abolished, what is it if you are not a rebel?"

"I'm afraid the traitor is your brother?" Jiang Qingluan said: "But I'm afraid he can't bear the name of a traitor. Such a weak person is just a fish in someone else's case."

"At least my elder brother is still on the king's seat." Jiang Xuanyu said: "But you are only regarded as king by slaves."

"Slaves are also my subjects. If you and your elder brother are slaves, you have to call me Your Majesty." Jiang Qingluan raised the corners of her mouth slightly. Once this woman became serious, her smile would no longer have the warmth of sunshine, but the evil of winter.

"Then it's better to kill me!" Jiang Xuanyu stood up suddenly and rushed to the prison door. He stared at Jiang Qingluan fiercely, but the other party saw him as nothing in his eyes. His descendants are always proud of their bloodlines, if they were demoted to slavery, he would not be able to bear such humiliation.

"Why did you kill you?" Jiang Qingluan took a step back, looked at Jiang Xuanyu like a trapped animal in a prison, and continued: "If you stand on the gate of the city tomorrow and say that you surrender to Gu, then forgive me." If you don't die, if you take Qi Peng alone, you can spare your father from dying."

"Dreaming!" Jiang Xuanfei said: "I, a disciple of the Jiang family, can only die in battle, not surrender!"

Jiang Qingluan looked at the young man in front of him, he was really skinny and tender, and he had some calculations so he didn't torture him, someone who was not injured was not worthy of death in battle.

"Welcoming your cousin back to the country is not considered a surrender." Jiang Qingluan said kindly: "You know that I use soldiers like gods to help me. As for the generals in Shen County, who is my opponent?"

Jiang Xuanyu kept his mouth shut this time, and he still agrees with this. Jiang Qingluan has no opponent in the match.

"Or tell me, how many troops, how much food and grass are there in Shen County? The aroma wafted out of the nostrils, and the prisoners around Jiang Xuanyu also went crazy, rushing to the prison door to beg for food.

"You think I can speak like this." Jiang Xuanfei asked back.

"No hurry," Jiang Qingluan said with a smile, "Anyway, I have plenty of time here, and I can still afford to spend half a year with you."

Jiang Xuanyu was not hungry, and this little food did not appeal to him. He turned his head away from Jiang Qingluan, bit his lips, and made up his mind not to reveal any news to her.

"It's okay, you are not hungry, so is Gu, and the prisoners in this prison are also hungry, if you don't eat, they want to eat." Jiang Qingluan said: "Whenever you want to eat, just ask the prison boss to call Gu Now, Gu must treat you well, if you can't figure it out, just watch others eat every day."

"Get out!" Jiang Xuanfei cursed in a low voice.

"That's right, Gu still has to go to the school grounds, so I won't accompany you." Jiang Qingluan said: "Enjoy the life here, it's really a rare experience for nobles."

It was gloomy and cold in the dungeon, but it looked different after leaving the dungeon. The sun has been good these days, although it is not enough to melt the snow, at least it is warm on the body, and people will be lazy if they stay for a long time.

Jiang Qingluan saw Chang Lan sitting lazily on the cart with her legs crossed and her head raised, like a growing plant absorbing the sunlight.She also walked over slowly, jumped into the car, crossed her legs like Chang Lan, and looked at the sky. Sure enough, this temperature is quite suitable for a daze.

"Your Highness, is the play over?" Chang Lan asked.

"Yeah." Jiang Qingluan nodded. In fact, it's not acting, it's nothing more than revealing some fake news.

"Are you really ready to raise those prisoners with wine and meat?" Chang Lan stretched her waist and asked.

"Naturally." Jiang Qingluan shifted her focus and leaned on Chang Lan's shoulder: "Is Lan'er heartbroken about your food?"

Chang Lan passed her hands around, stroked the hair next to Jiang Qingluan's ear, and said, "Your Highness has business to do, so I don't dare to feel sad."

"Don't worry, Lan'er, I won't be able to feed them for a few days." Jiang Qingluan said, "At most three days, I will let Jiang Xuanfei go."

Chang Lan nodded, Jiang Qingluan locked up all the spies who entered the city, the city has already been in and out, Shen County must be very eager for news here, Jiang Xuanyu is the best candidate, this person is born very good, with a high heart He is arrogant, if he goes back with news about Fuyang County, he will definitely use the news to increase his status.Jiang Qingluan had already figured it out, and now there is definitely a disagreement between Jiang Xuanfei and the chief general Jiang Fei, and it can also be seen from the side that there is also a gap between Jiangcheng and Wangcheng. good deal.

"Lan'er, the war has been tense lately. When we put that kid back, we will have a few days to relax." Jiang Qingluan raised her eyes, and there was softness between her eyebrows. She hooked Chang Lan's hand: "If Lan'er is not Busy, you and I will go back to Niandong County."

Chang Lan went back to Baili County to transfer troops. Although there were not many troops, they were able to get some time. It would be good if they returned to Niandong County, and they could still support them.

Chang Lan nodded, but then joked: "Your Highness remembers the good of Niandong County, does he also think of other people's good?"

Jiang Qingluan was basking in the warm sun, but Chang Lan couldn't help but think of the Wei Mansion that day when she mentioned it like this, with a cold sweat on her back, she sat up straight and explained: "Lan'er, I just want to read There should be a hot spring around Dong County, and you and I should also take a short rest."

Jiang Qingluan was only guessing that there must have been geothermal heat near the warm slope Wei Ji took her to last time, but people in Niandong County value literature over skill, and no one has the ability to explore.

Seeing that Jiang Qingluan was so nervous, Chang Lan stopped teasing her, and leaned on Jiang Qingluan's head and said, "Then follow His Highness's arrangement, but send this Jiang Xuanyu away first."
