"He said he wanted to start a war?"

Qin Fang's eyes widened with a look of astonishment on her face, "Isn't this a joke?"

The man in white said solemnly: "If it was a joke, there is no reason for him to stay there."

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly changed. The boxing immortal in white who had traveled all the way to Beijing noticed that the most noble woman in the world in front of him was trying his best to suppress his anger.

Qin Fang took a deep breath and turned to other topics: "Is Princess Nanzhao's illness cured?"

Yao Tiao just hummed. It was not that he meant to be cold-hearted. Even though he was known as the Boxing Immortal in White, he was still a man of the world and knew nothing about court etiquette and polite words. If Qin Fang's question was answered by an experienced court minister, the worst he could do would be to say something like "Thanks to His Highness the Crown Prince." Fortunately, Qin Fang is not the kind of woman who has been accustomed to etiquette since she was a child. She doesn't pay much attention to the complicated and rigid etiquette in the palace. She even asked the emperor to make drastic changes, so she was privately called " Wild Queen”.

The person who first came up with this title was actually her flesh and blood son. Originally, this title was not a popular one, but once, after getting drunk at a restaurant in the capital, His Royal Highness planned to go to a brothel to spend a lot of money, but as soon as he left the restaurant, he was stopped by the maid Taozhi who came here specially. Without even thinking about it, this must be "coming with an order" to "capture the prince and bring him back to the palace." Although our prince was extremely drunk, his fear of his strict mother was engraved in his bones and he did not dare to disobey, so he was helped into the car by Taozhi. At this point, it was supposed to be over. The prince returned to the palace, and the others continued to go to Chunxian Tower as planned. Unexpectedly, the prince suddenly said something like Hu Zou: "I was kidnapped by the wild queen today. Let's play some other time."

Since then, "Wild Queen" has been widely circulated, but mostly in a joking tone.

Of course, you can only talk about it privately with special friends. If anyone dares to talk about it on the stage, they still think they have lived too long.

So this "Wild Queen" didn't care at all about Yao Tiao's cold reply.

"It's hard to get to Beijing. You might as well stay and play for a few more days to get a good feel for the customs and customs in the Gyeonggi area."

Even if Yao Tiao didn't understand the rules, he could still tell that this was to drive away guests. He immediately saluted with a martial artist cupping his fists and said, "See you later."

Qin Fang nodded and asked Qingxue, who was waiting at the side, to escort him out of the palace.

Today's morning session lasted nearly half an hour for the first time. After His Majesty the Emperor returned to the palace, he could not conceal his tiredness.

It is said that auspicious snow heralds a good year, and there was a lot of snow in the spring this year, especially in the south. One heavy snowfall followed another, but it failed to alleviate the severe drought in Guangling Road and Jiangnan Road.

It rained all night when the house leaked. Liuzhou and Padizhou had always been peaceful, but somehow they became rampant after this winter. The official documents submitted by the local government every day included "number of plagues". The situation has changed since the beginning. The number of dozens of people has grown to hundreds now. Throughout the dynasties, no matter how capable the emperors were, it was difficult to control the spread of the plague, and entire cities and states often died. If we talk about the stubborn diseases that have been common to every dynasty for thousands of years, it is not the usurpation of the throne by close ministers, the involvement of eunuchs in politics, or the division of parties in the court, and the same plague that will sweep across the country at any time.

According to the official history of Dajing, the thirty-second emperor died of the plague caused by rats. The entire capital has a population of more than two million, and the "plague number" actually accounts for seven-tenths! At that time, the plague was able to spread to the emperor's feet. It is conceivable that all lines of defense had been defeated.

"The evil that plagues all dynasties."

Gui Qi thought softly and stepped into the palace with heavy steps.

Having already given him such a heavy blow early in the morning, if Qin Fang tells him again that our good son is more capable than you, my father, he will make his own decision and start a war with the Dafeng rebels.

So will this mentally and physically exhausted emperor become so angry that the historian wipes his eyes and writes "collapse"?

Unfortunately, Qin Fang, who was supposed to leave the city for Shang Jing, had been waiting for him for a long time with great anger.

Not only would he know about it, but he would also become a punching bag.

Sure enough, Qin Fang heard the rustling footsteps on the carpet, stood up in an instant, and quickly opened the curtain and walked out. Seeing the tired face of Gui Qi, she immediately sneered and said: "Your good son, without any prior notice, just said to me." The Dafeng Dynasty has declared war.”

Gui Qi's eyes suddenly flashed with stars, and he covered his heart with one hand, "Quick, quick, get me the medicine!"

"Get out of here, mother!" Qin Fang didn't like him, so she slapped him.

Gui Qi froze on the spot for a moment, and his heart no longer hurt.

Qin Fang continued to point at Sang and scold Huai, "That little bastard you raised, do you care whether your dead father wants to miss you or not? They have directly declared war on our behalf, and are now preparing for war with the Dafeng royal family. If something like this happens, what will happen to Da Fang? Emperor Feng probably cracked his ass with laughter, so he was afraid of going back on his word, so he asked a few beauties to accompany him and serve him with wine and delicious food? He said he might not even have a few grandsons for you. Let me tell you, he will bring them back when the time comes. , I won’t raise them, and you aren’t allowed to raise them either, whoever you love will raise them! It would be better if they were all thrown to death!”

It's hard to imagine that the empress, who is usually a mother to the world, could say such... vulgar words.

Gui Qi twitched the corner of his mouth, "What the hell do you mean a bastard son? Mother of a child, you are so angry that you even scold yourself."

Qin Fang pointed at her nose and scolded Gui Qi in circles. The latter is like a clay Bodhisattva without fire, motionless.

After half an hour, probably because she was tired of scolding, Qin Fang was panting, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

Geiqi took advantage of the opportunity and quickly comforted her: "Mom, calm down. One thing is happening one after another. It's useless no matter how anxious you are, right? Our daughter has just come back. It's not good for you to lose your temper like this. dont you agree?"

Qin Fang stopped and stared into his eyes, "What did you say, our daughter is back?"

Gui Qi was a little surprised, "You didn't know? I happened to bump into her when she came back just now, and she said she was back. I thought you not only knew, but had already gone to see her."

"Get lost! How could I possibly know!"

Gui Qi shrank his neck and whispered: "It seems that he came back with Yao Tiao. Didn't Yao Tiao tell you just now?"

"without!"

Qin Fang lost her temper and rushed out.

Guiqi stopped her quickly and whispered: "Just take it out on me, but remember not to get angry with the child."

"Of course I know that." Qin Fang thought for a moment, looked at him, and said, "I'm not taking it out on you."

Gui Qi blinked, "Aren't you venting your anger? What is that?"

"I see you're unhappy. Who made you so miserable last night?"

Gui Qi held it in for a long time and couldn't utter a single word.

Qingui Palace, in late spring, the peach blossoms are extremely beautiful.

A pavilion surrounded by cold springs is nestled in a peach grove. There is a woman fetching water from the spot and making tea with bare hands.

She held her chin in her hands, looking absent-minded, and her clear autumn eyes were hazy and misty, as if they were connected to the sky and the sea.

The slender and slender jade fingers were not hers, but they lightly flicked the porcelain pot

The clear and sweet sound brought the woman back from her thoughts, and she looked up suddenly.

After looking at each other for a long time, those extremely charming peach blossom eyes were moist and clear, and she could even see herself with tears streaming down her face.

At this moment, the woman in black seemed to have been greatly wronged. She threw herself on the woman across the table, sobbing softly without saying a word.

Gui Qing stroked her back with both hands, her eyes gentle: "I'm back."

Hu Meizi looked up at her, biting her red lips, her eyes sad, tears dripping from the corners of her eyes down her cheeks, and her beautiful dress got wet one after another.

"You're here to say goodbye to me, right?"

Looking at her eyes that were red from crying, like the deep red with light red peach blossoms after a shower, Gui Qing felt a layer of love in her heart and said softly: "I came here specially to be with you."

"Then are you still leaving?" Hu Meizi said in a daze.

"Home is here, where to go?"

Gui cleaned up her soaked skirt and said with a smile: "She is crying, like a resentful woman in a boudoir. It's me who allows you to cry like this on me."

"Shen is dead, why don't you get down quickly."

Hu Meizi hummed, wiped her tears, separated from Gui Qing, and then sat on it again.

Guiqing was a little helpless, "You have to let me change my clothes first, right? Isn't it uncomfortable for you to be so close to me?"

Hu Meizi hummed a few times, "Just stick it for a while."

Guiqing had no choice but to follow her.

After sitting in the pavilion for a while, Hu Meizi whispered: "Mother misses you too. Since you left, she has always been very unhappy. The biggest pain for mother is not your farewell, but mine You use your body, your appearance and your voice, but her real daughter will never come back. In fact, I am the same, I don’t dare to dress in the mirror every day, for fear of looking up and seeing myself in the mirror. It’s your appearance, obviously right in front of me, but if I don’t look in the mirror, I can no longer see you.”

Hu Meizi said she was tired, closed her eyes, and tightly wrapped her hands around Gui Qing's arm, like a tired woman in the boudoir, finally waiting for her sweetheart to come home.

What is the most fortunate thing in the world?

No matter what kind of despair you face, you still have a trace of luck. In the end, it is not the despair that pours out the darkness in your heart, but the real dawn that luck brings.

It was as if she knew that as the Lord of Fengdu, she would definitely ascend. She knew clearly that the late farewell was the last farewell, but she still took chances and hoped for a "what if". What if she really came back?

I still remember that man said that true happiness must be precious. If you want to have it, you must first know how to accept loss.

This is true for Hu Meizi, and it is also true for Gui Qing.

She was glad that she finally stayed in the human world instead of going to that cold and dark Fengdu.

She was very lucky that she could still see Hu Meizi crying and acting coquettishly, and she could still see her parents, and of course, there was also him who deserved a beating when he smiled.

The wind blows slightly, and the soaked clothes will feel cool.

Gui Qing gently shook Hu Meizi's arm and said, "Don't pretend to be asleep. You can do whatever you want tonight. Let me change my clothes first. I have to go see my parents."

Hu Meizi stood up quickly and said in surprise: "You haven't gone yet?"

Gui Qing smiled half-heartedly, "Go back to the house with me first."

"What are you doing?" Hu Meizi suddenly blushed and whispered, "If you want to molest me, considering that you came to me first, I can reluctantly agree."

Guiqing suddenly thought of some unpleasant memories, such as being woken up by her little silver teeth in the middle of the night. For another example, almost every night she would cry out that she was cold, and then snort and get into the bed that didn't belong to her.

Who molested whom?

And based on her charming nature, is there any difference between molesting others or being molested herself?

Thinking that she might not be able to sleep well due to being glued to her again tonight, Gui Qing's expression suddenly turned cold. She turned around first and strode away without looking back, leaving only one sentence: "Sleep in separate beds tonight."

Hu Meizi was about to cry.

In the Jiaofang Palace, Gui Qi was holding the desk with both hands and a sullen face. What he was thinking about at the moment was not the big things that concerned the country and the people, but whether his daughter-in-law would take advantage of the fact that she was still angry and take advantage of her daughter who had just returned. temper.

This couple may be harmonious, but if they are at odds, one will be stubborn and unyielding, and the other will be angry to death.

But suddenly, he saw Qin Fang turning back.

Coming back so soon? Seeing this scene, a huge stone fell in Geiqi's heart. It seemed that the two of them were in harmony.

Qin Fang sat down next to him.

Having said that, Gui Qi still asked cautiously: "You didn't lose your temper with our daughter, did you? What did you talk about?"

"Huh?" Qin Fang looked at him like a fool and asked, "Am I capable of flying in the clouds? As soon as I leave, I can come back with my back? Or do you mean that you, the father, have not been able to see for eight hundred years? My daughter once, don’t you want to see her again this time?”

Gui Qi's heart felt sour, and she touched her nose and said, "If you don't go now, what will happen if our daughter runs away later?"

"She dares to run!" Qin Fang was furious, "If she dares to run, I will..."

She stopped talking and her eyes suddenly turned red.

Gui Qi's voice trembled, "Go on, what cruel words can you say to your daughter? If she runs back to the Dafeng Dynasty, can't you just wait for her to come back? Mother, please leave me alone and hurry up Go, go quickly!”

At this moment, the two most noble men and women in the world looked like a pair of helpless empty nesters.

There have been too many near losses, and even Gui Qi has become timid and afraid.

Suddenly, a woman in a white dress appeared in the sunshine outside the hall.

The snow was so white that it was hard to see clearly.

She slowly moved her legs, lifted her skirt, stepped over the high threshold, and finally entered the hall.

In an instant, the darkness dimmed, and Gui Qi and Qin Fang finally saw her appearance.

Qin Fang suppressed her tears and said with a smile, "It turns out to be Xiao Humei."

Guiqi forced a smile and nodded.

"I heard that Gui Qing is back. Didn't she go find you?"

When she said this, Qin Fang's hands trembled slightly.

The person in the distance replied softly: "She left and said she would never come back."

At that moment, her hands trembled even more violently, and she grabbed the arm of the man next to her and pulled out a deep blood mark.

This tall man did not cry when he watched his father fall from his horse and die. The first time I went to court I was so scared that I couldn't speak. I didn't cry when I was laughed at by all the officials in private. I didn't cry when I heard that my son was kidnapped by bandits when he was returning home from Guangling Road. Even though he knew that his daughter would most likely never come back, she still didn't cry.

But at this moment, he was so choked that he almost lost his voice.

During his more than 20 years in the imperial court, he was always busy with government affairs and neglected to spend time with his children. Even just now, I had obviously bumped into my daughter who had returned, but because she had something to do with the government and the opposition in her heart, she just scrawled a few words and then passed her by.

You can't even keep your own daughter, but you still care about the common people?

Bullshit Holy Name Emperor!

I am too licentious, have no control skills, listen to traitors, and are tyrannical and cruel. I am worse than a fatuous monarch who has ignored the government for thirty years!

So what does this world mean to me? !

The woman in the white dress burst into tears for some unknown reason, but she smiled and said, "Father and mother, it's not too late to cry after hearing this."

She continued to step forward and went straight to the audience.

"What I'm saying is that the Lord of Fengdu has left and will not come back."

Facing the two of them, she knelt down gently, bowed before them, folded her hands, and placed them on the ground.

"My daughter Gui Qing has met her father and queen. From then on, she will never leave again."

"My daughter Gui Qing, she did many wrong things twenty years ago. She doesn't ask for forgiveness, she only asks for redemption."

"My daughter Guiqing is back."
