From the foot of the mountain to the sea, you have to climb a hill to get there.

Chen Xiaohu climbed to the top of the mountain with Lu Yange on his back before putting her down.

This time, they don't need to use pine branches to slide down.

This hill is low and low, and the way down the mountain is much easier than just walking.

Walking down the mountain to the seaside, the sun was already high and it was noon.

Looking from a distance, don't be too dark, you can't see what's in the sea.When I got closer, I found that the tall cliff-like thing turned out to be a warship.

The big boat parked by the sea was so familiar that Lu Yange had to stop and looked at Chen Xiaohu in astonishment.

"they……"

They shouldn't be parked in the harbor of Tongzhou, how could they come here?
Chen Xiaohu didn't explain, just said: "Go up, this boat is built, you haven't had time to see it yet."

"How did you..." Lu Yange wanted to ask, how did you get them here from Tongzhou.

On second thought, the Empress Dowager might be involved in this matter.

If the Empress Dowager was inside, it would be no surprise that the ship was sent here.

Just why?

Regardless of whether it is true or not that the Empress Dowager is ill, why did Chen Xiaohu trick her into coming here.

"The empress dowager ordered me to bring this boat here." Chen Xiaohu looked at the escalator slowly descending, "You go, the empress dowager asked me to leave a word for you , Said, told you not to miss her. The affairs of the Great Shang Dynasty have nothing to do with you from the moment you leave the capital. No matter who is looking for you, you don’t have to go back, just live your own life.”

Lu Yange knew that the news about the empress dowager's illness might be false, but he couldn't help asking, "What about the aunt's body?"

"The empress dowager's body is in good condition. She ate well and slept well. It's not that you didn't know her body when you left. How could it be possible that you fell ill after leaving for more than half a year?"

Chen Xiaohu was afraid that Lu Yange would not believe him, so he took out the letter written by the Empress Dowager, "Here, this is a letter written by the Empress Dowager, if you don't believe it, just open it and read it, you will know what I said true or false."

The letter is only a thin page.

Short words and deep feelings!
Between the lines, Lu Yange seemed to see that elegant and luxurious old lady writing quickly in front of the desk.

The wind passed by the window, shaking the mottled sunlight away.

The curling sandalwood seems to have been brought from the capital to the rocky beach by the sea, gently wiping away the teardrops from the corners of Lu Xingge's eyes.

This old lady, even if she has grown up and left the capital, she still doesn't trust her.

Also send Chen Xiaohu to bring her big boat to keep her away.

Sometimes, staying away is not not not loving, but because you love too much, so you don't want you to live more freely.

Lu Yange folded the letter paper and stuffed it into the envelope.

"Since the boat is here, let's not take the car, let's go back to Beijing by boat."

"Back to Beijing?"

Chen Xiaohu hurriedly said, "The Empress Dowager means to let you..."

"Brother Xiaohu." Lu Yange interrupted Chen Xiaohu sharply, "The emperor has called, I must go to Beijing."

If Chen Luxing really wanted to kill her, then she deserved it, raising a white-eyed wolf by herself.

She must not drag down her aunt, the old lady who treats her like her own daughter.

Chen Xiaohu stepped forward to stop Lu Yange: "Yange, you don't have to listen to what the Empress Dowager said, but can you listen to me?"

The originally good relationship between the brother and sister seemed to disappear in an instant.

Lu Yange squinted at him: "If you want to persuade me not to go to the capital, then don't say so."

When she left the capital at that time, she thought that everyone was different from each other, and from then on, the sky was high and the clouds were calm.

But now the emperor summoned her, how could she not answer.She is just Princess Changle, the first emperor's cousin, and the emperor's cousin.

If the emperor doesn't want to recognize her as a princess, she is just a commoner who has no father, no mother, and no home.

She does not have the support of her father and brother, nor her husband's family to rely on.There is also my aunt in Beijing, the Shen family, and the Lu family.These people are all her concern.

How could the children she raised didn't know her weakness.

"In the past ten years, you have done very well. Presumably even if the second brother is here, he may not be as good as you." Chen Xiaohu seldom talked about these things with Lu Yangge.

She was just a child when she was a sister, young and ignorant.When his younger sister becomes the emperor and sits on a high dragon chair, all he can talk to his younger sister is state affairs, and he never even mentions family affairs.

Thinking of what he was going to say next, Chen Xiaohu took a deep breath, his face was red and ashamed, "Bige, you did a good job, but have you ever thought that you are like this for the second brother, for the sake of your behavior?" Son... is it worth it for the emperor?"

Since ancient times, loyalty and righteousness have been difficult to balance. If it were him, he might be able to be righteous to his second brother, but he may not be able to be loyal to the emperor.

"There's nothing worth it or not." Lu Yange smiled, "Second brother entrusted Xing'er and Ming'er to me, they are my children. Maybe you will think that I sacrificed myself, but I never thought about it that way. For ten years, I have gained far more than I have sacrificed."

For Lu Yange, the emperor is just a profession.

She enjoys power, glory and wealth, but she has worked for her second brother for ten years, so what is it worth?

What's more, in the past ten years, she has raised her two children with all her heart, accompanied her aunt to grow old, and was respected and loved by the children and loved by her aunt.

These are all things she couldn't get when she was an orphan, and it can be regarded as making up for her shortcomings in her previous life.

Chen Xiaohu frowned: "As long as you think it's good."

As long as Yange doesn't regret it, he doesn't think there's anything wrong with it.

Lu Yange smiled, she really felt very good, and she did not hesitate to return the seat to Chen Luxing.

She has never missed the imperial power, and she has no illusions about that supreme position.

But she thinks this way because her experience has made her think so broadly, but others may not think so.

Everyone who knows the secret and cares about her is afraid that she will be feared by the emperor.And from the standpoint of the emperor, how could he not be afraid of this aunt with outstanding abilities?

Times are different, ideas are different.

If she hadn't been the emperor for the past ten years, then it would have depended on the aunt in the palace, the current Shen family, and Brother Xiaohu.She is a weak girl who has no father, no mother, no family, and no elder brother. I am afraid that most people dare not look down upon her.

But she happened to be the emperor for more than ten years, and she also raised the current emperor.

At the beginning, she did it to protect the blood left by her second brother. That's right. In fact, it was also because as long as Chen Luxing was safe, the Shen family, the Lu family who raised her, and many people who were inextricably related to her would all live better. good.

Now, the only thing she can't understand is, what does the emperor think?

He knows the facts, the real facts.

Who was it that broke this matter in front of him, did he tell the truth in the middle, did he add embellishments and distort the real facts?
