Yuan Ye held the handle of the knife at his waist tightly with his left hand and watched Mrs. Yan take Xiao Yan away.
Mrs. Yan was the eldest daughter of the Queen Mother's younger brother. She almost entered the palace and became the queen.
However, something unexpected happened later.
Mrs. Yan did not enter the palace.
Later, the emperor granted her a marriage, married the number one scholar, and became the number one scholar's wife.
One year after getting married.
The number one scholar was killed by an assassin in an assassination attempt to protect the emperor.
From then on, Mrs. Yan reported to the emperor that she would only be the first lady in this life and never marry again.
Naturally, Yuan Ye did not dare to stop Xiao Yan from meeting the Queen Mother.
Even His Majesty is respectful to the Queen Mother and does not dare to have the slightest disobedience.
Yuan Ye looked at Xiao Zhan, who was sitting there and continuing to eat and drink, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go!"
Outside Zuixian Tower, parked was an extremely luxurious four-wheeled carriage with four horses, which was already top-notch treatment in the capital.
Mrs. Yan stood beside the carriage, looked at Xiao Yan, raised her hand, and said dissatisfied: "Why are you standing there in a daze? We haven't seen each other for three years and we are so unfamiliar?"
"Hurry up and help Aunt Yan get on the carriage."
Xiao Yan smiled slightly, stepped forward to support Mrs. Yan, and felt soft in her hands.
"Aunt Yan, slow down."
Mrs. Yan smiled charmingly, turned around and got into the carriage.
"You come up too."
Xiao Yan hesitated and said, "There are still people watching, isn't this bad?"
Mrs. Yan's expression turned cold and she said in a deep voice, "Let me see who dares to talk nonsense!"
Xiao Yan shrugged and reluctantly got on the carriage.
Open the curtain and walk in.
It felt like I was buried in the soft dough.
"Woo... Yan'er, I thought I would never see you again."
"I heard that on your way to the capital, ten masters ambushed you. If anyone is injured, please let Aunt Yan take a look."
Mrs. Yan said while touching Xiao Yan's body.
Xiao Yan felt like he couldn't breathe. His head was being pressed and sliding around, and a fresh fragrance hit his nostrils.
"ah……."
Mrs. Yan seemed to have touched something. She was so frightened that she withdrew her hand and pushed Xiao Yan away, her face extremely rosy.
Xiao Yan quickly recited the Calming Mantra silently, coughed a few times, and sat up.
Mrs. Yan took out her handkerchief and covered her mouth with a smile. Her charming eyes were like autumn water, and she looked sideways at Xiao Yan.
"It's okay, it's okay, we can still carry on the family lineage."
The next second.
"puff!"
Xiao Yan vomited a mouthful of blood.
"oops……!"
Mrs. Yan quickly stepped forward, wiped Xiao Yan's mouth with a handkerchief, and asked anxiously: "What's going on?"
Xiao Yan struggled and took out a sapphire porcelain vase from his arms, but felt a tenderness coming from his arms.
"Ahem, Aunt Yan, it's okay, don't worry, I just accidentally got poisoned. I've prepared some medicine."
After saying that, he poured out a small crystal-like pill from the porcelain bottle and drank it.
It turned out that Xiao Yan was indeed ambushed by ten masters from the Central Plains on his way to the capital.
In the end, he narrowly escaped and survived.
However, during the fight, he was poisoned by Miao Jiang Chili. Once the poison takes effect, his whole body will be like a blazing fire.
Xiao Yan originally planned to go to Yaowang Valley to heal his wounds, but when he learned that the crown prince Xiao Wuji was going to kill his brother Xiao Zhan, he hurried to the capital.
Just now, the poison broke out.
Mrs. Yan hugged Xiao Yan and said with tears, "Yan'er, I have made you suffer."
Xiao Yan smiled freely.
"It's not hard. I've benefited a lot from being able to fight against the top ten masters from the Central Plains. I haven't been so sweaty in a fight for a long time."
Mrs. Yan sighed, pouted, and said angrily: "You, please stop holding on."
"Isn't there Aunt Yan in the capital? Why don't you just go to Yaowang Valley to recuperate?"
"Aren't you and the closed female disciple of Yaowang Valley childhood sweethearts? After you leave, let her take good care of you, and you can get rid of the poison earlier and avoid this childish sin."
Xiao Yan looked at her face as rosy as a winter plum blossom, and her face seemed to be filled with a refreshing fragrance. He said softly: "I have reached the age of 18 and can be considered a real man. A real man naturally wants to hold up the sky, so how can I embarrass Aunt Yan?"
"Besides, this bit of poison is nothing to me."
Mrs. Yan was half-hugging Xiao Yan, smelling each other's fragrance. She seemed to have no intention of letting go. She just leaned her head side by side with him, looking very affectionate.
Looking at Xiao Yan, who is dressed in white robes, his appearance is even more handsome. He is as handsome as jade, and his son is unparalleled. It is difficult to find a handsome man who can compare with him in the world.
"Tell me the truth, is the poison really not a serious problem?"
Xiao Yan said brightly: "Don't worry, Aunt Yan, my eldest father has already sent someone to Yaowang Valley to ask for medicine. Besides, I am a grand master, and I am just a poisoner, so there is no threat to me."
After hearing this, Mrs. Yan felt relieved.
She patted the back of Xiao Yan's hand and said with a smile: "Listen to Auntie, from now on, you can just be a dandy. If it's okay, just ride a horse and run around Chang'an Street. When you see that beautiful woman, you will immediately Just rob it, or, to see who is upset, have a fight, buy some expensive calligraphy and paintings, light a fire to keep warm, or throw gold coins on the calyx building..."
Mrs. Yan became more and more excited as she talked, her eyes shone, and she seemed to be very interested in these things.
Xiao Yan smacked his lips and looked at Mrs. Yan.
I didn't expect you to be such Aunt Yan.
He also understood what Mrs. Yan meant. As a dandy, he would do some sneaky things, bully men and women, and show it to the current emperor, crown prince, and civil and military ministers, so as to taint himself.
Even if the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them.
He has been so dazzling over the years.
So much so that the emperor of Zhou Dynasty was jealous of his great achievements.
All this arranged for the top ten masters to ambush him on the way.
Just as Mrs. Yan was teaching Xiao Yan how to be a qualified dandy, the carriage arrived outside the palace.
"Ma'am, we're here."
Hearing Yan Feixue's voice outside, Mrs. Yan reluctantly let go of Xiao Yan.
"Oh, time goes so fast."
Xiao Yan stood up and said: "Aunt Yan, I'm afraid I will have to be the dandy's companion for the princes in this capital for several years. I will spend some time with you when I have time in the future."
After that, he exited and got off the carriage.
Mrs. Yan also came out, and with the help of Xiao Yan, she got out of the carriage and said, "Well, let's go, don't keep the Queen Mother waiting."
The carriage stopped at the gate of the Imperial City.
Xiao Zhan stood aside with a lunch box and two wine jars in both hands.
This was not Xiao Yan's first visit to the palace. The two of them walked into Xuandemen one after another, walked through the long corridor, passed through the five gates, passed the Daming Palace and the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and entered Qianqing through the back right door. When I opened the door, I saw a large hall.
Entering the main hall, you can smell the scent of sandalwood.
Sitting on the first seat in the back room of the side hall was Queen Mother Zhang, who was in her sixties, wearing a simple headdress and a green jade hairpin, with a kind and kind face.
This was a virtuous queen of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The late Emperor Chongyuan followed the founding emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the southern and northern wars. She was able to guard Jinyang, the home of the Xiao family, and even led a group of people to resist the Turks' southward movement and saved the city of Jinyang.
After Emperor Chongyuan ascended the throne, he entered the harem. He often gave advice and was good at using the past to illustrate the present, correcting Emperor Chongyuan's political mistakes, and protecting loyal and capable ministers. He was respected by all civil and military officials. After Emperor Chongyuan died of illness, he even supported the current majesty. After ascending the throne as emperor, his reputation in the government and the public is relatively high.
Mrs. Yan saluted and said, "Empress Dowager, I have brought it to you."
Xiao Yan also followed suit, clasping his fists and bowing: "General Xiao Yan, pay your respects to the Queen Mother."
Empress Dowager Zhang smiled slightly, stretched out her hand to greet Mrs. Yan, and said, "Okay, okay, come here and sit down."
Mrs. Yan stepped forward leisurely and sat quietly beside Queen Mother Zhang.
Empress Dowager Zhang looked at Xiao Yan again and said happily: "You are worthy of being the champion of my great Zhou Dynasty, with extraordinary temperament."
"How many of those dandy boys in the capital have been embarrassed!"
Xiao Yan said respectfully: "The Queen Mother is so complimentary that Xiao Yan is too embarrassed to deserve it."
Empress Dowager Zhang stretched out her hand and signaled: "Come here, come closer, let the Ai family have a good look."
When Xiao Yan came closer, he reached out and took his hand.
Xiao Yan took advantage of the situation and squatted next to him.
Empress Dowager Zhang spoke lovingly about how she had hugged the King of Xiliang when she was a child, and how he was mischievous in the capital, just like a kind-hearted old woman.
Mrs. Yan was even more thoughtful and talked about some things that happened to Xiao Yan when she was a child.
In this Qianqing Palace, there is laughter and laughter, like the warmth of a family.
after awhile.
He also asked people to pass on the meal, saying that he wanted to reward the young talents of Da Zhou.
Did the Queen Mother ask Mrs. Yan to add more dishes to Xiao Yan, so that Xiao Yan could eat enough for three people by himself?
Finally let him go.
