The King of Liang, the feudal lords outside the town, and the generals inside

The empress dowager played this trick a little bit, the imperial concubine almost scolded out loud.She endured it, and said: "The empress dowager, the eunuchs are all picking children of a certain age to purify themselves. How old is this white jade? It's really inappropriate. What do you think it will become if it is spread? The empress dowager's little pet ? Won’t it tarnish the Empress Dowager’s reputation?”

Princess Zhaoning looked sideways at her, "The empress dowager just wants a little servant boy by her side, but she also needs to look at other people's eyes? Not to mention, who would dare to chew the empress dowager's tongue? Your empress is too worried. "

The concubine restrained herself and said: "This white jade is the one that the emperor asked General Yan to send to the palace. You have to ask the emperor how to deal with it. What's more, the queen mother keeps a person of unknown origin by her side. If there is anything wrong …The concubine is currently in charge of the six palaces, it is really difficult to deal with the emperor and queen. I hope the empress dowager will be sympathetic."

The Empress Dowager said with deep anger, "Concubine, since you entered the palace, relying on the emperor's love and connivance for the empress, you have caused troubles in the palace many times and opposed the Aijia. Care about. Now you are getting more and more arrogant, why, will the Ai family report to you for everything in the future?!"

The empress dowager was really angry, even the eldest princess Zhaoning lowered her head and collected her expression, but the noble concubine was not timid, she smiled lightly and said: "The empress dowager said this, and the concubines don't know where to hear it. The empress is Chenqie's sister, loved Chenqie since childhood, Chenqie is indeed indulgent in front of her, and Chenqie is guilty. But in front of the emperor and queen mother, there are a hundred of them respectful and 1 cautious. The emperor once said The concubine is gentle and virtuous, and the concubine was given the title of 'Shu'. The concubine will keep the emperor's teachings in mind every day, and dare not go beyond the rules for a day, so please ask the queen mother to observe clearly."

Princess Zhaoning said coldly: "The imperial concubine really never leaves my brother, are you threatening the queen mother with my brother?"

"I am the emperor's concubine and also the emperor's subjects. Naturally, the emperor is the first in everything. Does the princess think there is anything wrong?" The princess looked contemptuous and disdainful, "Weiyan had a Prince Heng who conspired to usurp the throne a few years ago. His daughter was raised under the Empress Dowager Weiyan's knees since she was a child. When she heard that her father rebelled, she was so ashamed that she threw herself into the lake and committed suicide for her father. The name is actually a good story about Weiyan."

"You!" Princess Zhaoning blushed with anger, she stood up and pointed at the imperial concubine, "What do you mean by that!"

The imperial concubine snorted softly, with a charming smile, "Oh, I'm just talking a few words, what kind of pain did this hit the eldest princess? It made the eldest princess so angry."

"Enough." The Empress Dowager said in a deep voice, "Noble Concubine, do you really think that the Ai family dare not touch you?"

"Of course the concubine doesn't think so. You are the empress dowager, why don't you dare to do it? But the concubine thinks that the queen mother will always keep the concubine's life for the sake of the emperor's heir and the concubine's mother country." exist."

When the atmosphere was tense, a maid outside came in to report: "Report to the Empress Dowager, the Prime Minister is asking to see you."

The prime minister, Shen Qing, was the elder of the four dynasties. The Shen family was the head of the four gentry families. There were many disciples in the dynasties, and they were quite prestigious.

The Empress Dowager frowned, although she was displeased, she couldn't avoid it, so she said: "Let him in."

However, Shen Qing came in with a roll of bright yellow silk, straight to the point and said: "Queen Mother, the old minister is here to announce the decree."

Everyone immediately knelt down on the ground, Shen Qing didn't look sideways, and only said to the Empress Dowager: "But you don't need to read the imperial decree, the Empress Dowager just read it."

Lan Yan knelt on the ground and held the imperial decree in front of the Queen Mother.

Time seemed to be frozen by the cold, passing extremely slowly.The queen mother still had a cold smile on her lips, which made people feel cold and sharp.

After a while, she said: "Mr. Shen came just in time."

Shen Qing said indifferently: "Before His Majesty went to the south of the Yangtze River for disaster relief, he specially left this edict and asked the veterans to take it out when needed. Now that the Empress Dowager has read it, if there is nothing wrong, the old ministers outside will obey the order and take it away. "

The Empress Dowager's face was already blue, and the muscles on her face twitched slightly.In this short period of time, he first saw Bai Yu, who looked too similar to Wusun's, and then was contradicted by the noble concubine, and finally Shen Qing came with the imperial decree, forcing her to let her go.A series of anger, but the Queen Mother also had to bear it.

Shen Qing's face was full of exhaustion, it seemed that he didn't want to say a word to anyone, before the Queen Mother could speak, he folded his hands and bowed in salute, then walked away with the imperial decree.

The noble concubine got up immediately, bowed her knees, and left behind Shen Qing.

In front of the Compassionate Ning Palace, Bai Yu had already calmed down.Shen Qing confirmed his identity with him before going in, and said: "The emperor left a decree before leaving, you don't have to be afraid."

When Shen Qing and the noble concubine came out of the Palace of Compassion and Ning, Shen Qing still looked calm and slightly tired, while the noble concubine's face was flushed.Once again, he beat the queen mother by a margin, and made her feel extra refreshed, which was more effective than worshiping any Buddha.

Bai Yu thanked the two for their life-saving grace, the imperial concubine sized him up and said, "I didn't know just now, so you are the Bai Yu the emperor said, no wonder you know Cheng Rui."

"Yes, Caomin is exactly Baiyu."

The noble concubine nodded, "You are really lucky. It is said that if you survive a catastrophe, you will have good fortune. I believe that we will meet again in the future."

Bai Yu bowed and said, "I entrust the great blessings of the imperial concubine and empress, and the common people will definitely repay you in the future."

The imperial concubine smiled, greeted Shen Qing, boarded the sedan chair and left.

Shen Qing patted his back, "Let's go."

Bai Yu followed behind Shen Qing, step by step away from the Palace of Compassion and Tranquility that almost killed him, finally filled with the ecstasy of surviving a catastrophe and a little bit of sadness in her heart.Since when, his life has been in the hands of others.He did not break the law, why?

Shen Qing is definitely the most taciturn person Bai Yu has ever met. He walked all the way to the gate of the palace, except for "Let's go", Shen Qing didn't say a word to him, and Bai Yu didn't dare to talk to him.He didn't know Shen Qing, nor did he know his identity, but seeing him walking in the palace, all the servants were respectful, he knew that this person had a lot of background.

Outside the palace gate, Yan Zun was waiting there anxiously, when he saw Bai Yu coming out intact, his three souls and seven souls all returned to their places, his tense expression immediately relaxed, and he stepped forward to embrace Bai Yu into his arms as if no one else was there.

"Scared me to death, scared me to death..." He hugged Bai Yu and murmured.

Bai Yu was a little embarrassed, "Yan Shilang, you..."

Yan Zun didn't lose his composure completely, he let go of his hand very quickly, cupped his hands to Shen Qing and said: "Thank you Shibo for your help, I really feel guilty for having worked so hard for Shibo, but Shibo is the only one in the court who can help my nephew. "

Shen Qing didn't seem to see that Yan Zun was hugging a man just now, and still said indifferently: "It's okay, the imperial decree was left by the emperor, and I also can't understand how the queen mother treats human life like nothing. But I can help you once, but You can’t do this again and again, you have to be careful in the future.”

Yan Zun said: "Yes, thank you Shibo for your guidance."

Shen Qing waved his hands, got into the carriage and left.

Bai Yu asked, "Who is this lord?"

"He is the Prime Minister of the Four Dynasties, Master Shen Qing. He and my father are best friends, so I call him Shibo." Yan Zun was answering Bai Yu's question, but his eyes were glued to Bai Yu's face, as if watching Like a pile of gold that can fill the moat, "Are you okay? Did the Queen Mother make things difficult for you? Did she hit you?"

There was still some pain in the knee, Bai Yu bent down and felt it herself, and said, "It's okay, just let me kneel for a while, the knee hurts a bit, but it's just a flesh injury, it will be fine in two days."

Yan Zun hurriedly helped Bai Yu into the carriage, Bai Yu asked, "How's the injury on your shoulder?"

Yan Zun shook his head and said, "I can't even feel the pain, what kind of magic medicine is that?"

"Take another one before going to bed, and it won't hurt tomorrow."

Yan Zun nodded and said: "Today is really dangerous. I blamed me for being confused for a moment. I didn't think much about it when I heard the decree. I thought it was the emperor's decree. I didn't expect it to be the Queen Mother."

"The people who wanted to come to the queen mother waited at the gate of the city after Zhu Sha ambushed us and injured you. When we entered the city and arrived at Yan's mansion, they immediately sent that eunuch to pass the decree, so that you couldn't follow us right away when you were injured. I entered the palace together, so the queen mother can deal with me as she pleases." Bai Yu sighed, "I can't blame you, the layout is interconnected, although there are many loopholes, but the eunuch is in a hurry, and it is difficult to find something wrong in a short time .”

Yan Zun said: "The emperor went to the south of the Yangtze River for disaster relief a while ago. I have ordered someone to report to the emperor. You will be safe when the emperor comes back. Stay in Yan's mansion these few days, don't go out, to avoid any accidents."

Bai Yu nodded, and said casually, "You live in Yan's mansion too? You're so old, you still live in your parents' house, didn't you go out and build your own servant's mansion?"

Yan Zun was stunned for a moment, and said: "Of course I have my own mansion, but... Yan Mansion is safer for you, and I just happen to be with my mother."

Bai Yu didn't think too much, and leaned against the wall of the carriage and let out a sigh, "Thanks to the prime minister today, and also to the imperial concubine, if there is a chance, I should go and thank her."

Yan Zun wondered: "Imperial concubine? Did she speak for you too?"

"Yes, if she hadn't delayed the time, I'm afraid..." Bai Yu said while clutching the cloak on her body, "I was dragged out of the Compassionate Ning Palace by them, and I happened to meet the imperial concubine. I recognized Yan Xun's cloak, so I spoke for me."

Yan Zun's complexion paled, he said "Oh" and didn't speak.

Bai Yu turned to look at him, and the atmosphere in the carriage became a little weird.

Bai Yu already knew what Yan Zun was thinking. In fact, no matter how you looked at it, Yan Zun was a rare handsome young man with a handsome appearance, a distinguished family background, and a gentle temperament. how much difference.

But Bai Yu never had the same feeling towards him as Yan Xun, and he always thought that maybe one day when Yan Xun made up his mind, they could really be together instead of being so ambiguous like now.
