"what do you mean?"
The Queen Mother was so angry that wrinkles appeared on her face. He raised his hand and pressed the small coffee table firmly, and asked Mo Qin angrily.
Mo Qin stood up and walked forward and sat down in front of the Queen Mother.
"Father, my daughter is also thinking about the country and the country. Aren't you and the courtiers worried that there will be no successors to the country?"
Adopting an heir would solve all problems.
Choosing a talented person and educating him from an early age can be regarded as fulfilling his responsibility to the country and the people.
"Are you blaming me?"
It was he who sent someone to meet Jiang Yanning, and Jiang Yanning left.
He didn't see how sad Mo Qin was when Jiang Yanning left, but now he realized that Mo Qin was so stubborn.
"There are so many beauties in the world, why do you have to be Jiang Yanning?"
Mo Qin: "..."
It's not a question of who has to do it.
Without Jiang Yanning, there would be no one else. She was not from this world, so she didn't want to have too much to do with the people here.
"Father, my daughter is already very tired from taking care of state affairs and is not in the mood for love. Moreover, my daughter does not need a harem to contain the courtiers."
"Such a large number of men in the harem chattering will make my daughter upset and have a headache."
The Queen Mother glared at Mo Qin and complained:
"Oh, the emperor has grown up, and there is no need for this old man like me to meddle in my own business."
There are always some crooked reasons to refute him, how can he say anything?
Mo Qin felt that the Queen Mother did not believe her words.
The consequence of not believing her was that not long after, Mo Qin received a 'little gift' prepared by the Queen Mother.
A few beauties.
The little beauties stood in a row, each with its own characteristics. If we had to say what they had in common, it would probably be that they all looked like Jiang Yanning in some ways...
Mo Qin: "?"
Where did this come from? ?
Mo Qin sent those people back without even looking at them.
There is really no need, she is still busy cultivating an heir as soon as possible so that she can leave here! -
There are many legends about today's saints circulating among the people.
There are those who sing praises, and there are those who make up gossip.
In a teahouse somewhere, a middle-aged woman sat in the middle of the crowd and said plausibly:
"This guilty minister, Jiang Jiazi, is so handsome that he can make people dream of him with just one glance. Even the current Holy Emperor is his subordinate!"
"The Jiang family is a femme fatale with a greedy heart. Because the Holy Father punished the Jiang family, he resolutely abandoned His Majesty and tried to let Your Majesty taste the pain of losing a loved one..."
The people around him were unhappy when they heard this.
"Stop talking nonsense! The emperor is a wise king, how could he want to live or die because of a man!"
"It was obviously the emperor who had to endure hardships to find evidence of the Jiang family's rebellion, so he married the Jiang family's son."
"Jiang's family looks as if there is no salt, he is very ordinary!"
"The emperor is dedicated to serving the country and the people, how can he indulge in love!"
Two versions are the most widely circulated.
But they all ended with Jiang Yanning's death.
The white-haired old man grabbed the jug and poured wine into his mouth, only to find that the jug was empty.
Rumors from the market floated into his ears. He shook the wine bottle, smacked his lips, and shook his head. He didn't know whether he was feeling sorry for the lack of wine or feeling helpless because of the nonsense.
The old man walked slowly out and returned to a small courtyard in the forest.
Someone was working with herbs in the yard.
The old man leaned against the doorframe and looked at Jiang Yanning, "You really don't regret it?"
This sentence has no beginning or end, but both of them know what it refers to.
Jiang Yanning's hands were sticky with mud, and there were small wounds on the white and delicate fingertips. His eyes dimmed for a moment, and he pretended to be relaxed and said:
"There is nothing to regret."
"A hanging pot helps the world, and a doctor is kind-hearted. I still have a lot to learn, don't you, Master?"
The old man chuckled, "I don't have the kindness of a doctor."
There is money, wine and fun, but as for treating doctors and saving people?
Follow your mood.
The old man was too lazy to say anything more and just went into the room, still muttering something.
"You will regret this."
Jiang Yanning heard this sentence very clearly.
When you understand what you have to lose in order to preserve your self-esteem.
Only then will you understand what it means to regret too late...
There is nothing to wash away from the Jiang family's rebellion. As a member of the Jiang family, Jiang Yanning is destined to bear the stain.
He had no doubt that Mo Qin could overcome all opinions to protect him and let him sit in that position safely.
You can also trust that Mo Qin will always treat him the same.
But the deeper the friendship, the more overwhelming it became for him.
She never did anything wrong, it was him...
How could he feel at ease and become a burden to her, just hiding behind her and enjoying the protection she brought him? He didn't deserve it.
Jiang Yanning did not allow herself to become that person.
He chose to leave in order to preserve his last remaining bit of self-respect.
Jiang Yanning didn't even want to stay here anymore because she didn't want to hear the news about the emperor's talent selection one day.
He and his master went to other countries and traveled around in search of his benevolence.
-
It wasn't until the old man agreed to detoxify someone for a jar of good wine that the two of them set foot on this land again.
"I heard that the marriage team will enter Beijing soon."
"When the previous emperor was on the throne, the princes sent by neighboring countries to marry were all married to members of the royal family. Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, should the emperor be admitted to the harem this time?"
"Thanks to the late emperor, the country is now rich and powerful, and the people are happy. The new emperor was personally taught by the late emperor, so he should be a good emperor."
"The late emperor was in his prime, why did he..."
Jiang Yanning couldn't listen to what was said next.
The late emperor? New Emperor?
He knew what every word meant, but why couldn't he understand the combination?
"What Emperor?!"
The two were chatting enthusiastically when they were suddenly interrupted by someone rushing over. They looked confused, but they still explained kindly:
"The late emperor is the late emperor. Are you from outside the territory?"
The late emperor had reigned for nine years. Half a year ago, the late emperor abdicated in favor of his daughter-in-law, who had been adopted from the clan and raised by one of his own.
Jiang Yanning didn't care about the new emperor's affairs, "What about Mo... where is the former emperor?"
After the new emperor ascended the throne, the previous emperor disappeared.
There are many speculations about its whereabouts, but they are just speculations.
How could Jiang Yanning have the heart to follow the old man to detoxify him?
He bid farewell to the old man and went to the capital alone.
Compared with a few years ago, the capital city is now more lively and prosperous than before.
He now had no identity and didn't know how to enter the palace. After wandering around the capital for two days, Jiang Yanning met Qin Hao on the street.
Now Qin Hao occupies an important position. She was once the right-hand assistant of the late emperor. After so many years, she is more stable and difficult to figure out than before.
Jiang Yanning found the right opportunity to stop Qin Hao.
"Lord Qin, stay."
Jiang Yanning was wearing a curtain hat, but Qin Hao didn't recognize him.
Qin Hao did not have a condescending attitude, but asked quite normally:
"Who are you?"
Jiang Yanning slowly lifted the corner of the curtain and spoke slowly:
"Caomin, Jiang Yanning."
Qin Hao, even as calm as he was, was shocked by the person who suddenly appeared in front of him.
After a moment, she suppressed the mixed emotions in her heart and asked in an extremely unfamiliar and cold tone:
"Why are you looking for me?"
