Reborn Totalitarian Queen

Chapter 855
Song House.

Song Chuxi slept until dawn and woke up. When she opened her eyes, there was no one around her, and she heard voices vaguely.

She turned her head to look over, but saw Yin Zhan standing at the gate with his back turned to her in brocade clothes, and he lowered his voice to explain something to Wei Heng.

this night...

The impression in Song Chuxi's mind was a bit empty, and he sat up thinking with his eyebrows frowned.

Yin Zhan heard the movement, turned around and saw her wake up, and said to Wei Heng: "You go first."

Wei Heng retreated in response, and he turned back to the house.

Song Chuxi rubbed her temples, looked up at him, "Why are you still here? Outside..."

She fell asleep so unconscious?This is so abnormal.

She looked at Yin Zhan with a look of searching.

Yin Zhan leaned over and sat down beside the bed without any excuses, raised his hand to test the temperature of her forehead, and said slowly: "It's all right now. King Huai instigated the forbidden army stationed outside the city to force the palace, but the situation has subsided gone."

The expression and tone of his speech were very flat, as if he was talking about such trivial things as carrots and cabbage.

The emperor must have the means to protect himself. Even if Song Chuxi didn't get any clues, he still felt it in his heart, because Yin Zhan's attitude towards him actually explained some reasons.

She didn't ask about the story of King Huai's coercion, but just looked at Yin Zhan intently.

If it was just about Yin Liang, Yin Zhan didn't have to shy away from her and let her sleep all night.

Yin Zhan looked at her, facing the questioning look in her eyes, he was finally helpless.

He raised his hand to stroke her hair, did not avoid anything, just looked into her eyes calmly and said: "The Queen Mother's matter... the Dong Chuang incident happened."

It turned out to be——

Empress Dowager Song?
No wonder he took it upon himself to avoid her.

Song Chuxi was taken aback for a moment, and followed closely, feeling even more inexplicably nervous.

She pursed her lips very hard, then seriously raised her head to meet Yin Zhan's gaze, and asked hesitantly, "What's the matter?"

"It's okay for the time being. The emperor himself was seriously injured. He didn't know if he didn't take care of it for a while, so he temporarily put him under house arrest." Yin Zhan said, not trying to hide anything. After a pause, he said again: " Yin Shao kidnapped the old lady of the Duanmu family to go to Beijing, and the old lady of Duanmu personally testified about some things, which hurt the dignity of the royal family."

There must be some connection between the Empress Dowager Song and the Duanmu family, and Song Chuxi knew this, but why did the Yue family get involved?
Song Chuxi just looked at him.

Yin Zhan has nothing to say about the Empress Dowager Song's private affairs, but Song Chuxi treats the Empress Dowager Song differently, so he still hesitates in his heart. For many years the reason..."

Song Chuxi was taken aback.

Yin Zhan didn't finish what he said, just because he was afraid that she would feel embarrassed.

Song Chuxi was stunned for a moment, then shook her head vigorously, tried to calm herself down, and then laughed inconceivably.

"Is it because of... Duanmuxiang?" She uttered these words with great difficulty, for no other reason than for them to uncover the old scar of an elder she respected.

"Probably!" Yin Zhan sighed, looking back at the brighter sky outside with far-sighted eyes, "At that time, the emperor himself was seriously injured, and Mrs. Duanmu and the queen mother quarreled face to face. Besides... Yin Shao made the arrangements, and the emperor is willing to push the boat along, so the impact of this incident can only continue to expand."

The emperor will not let the Empress Dowager Song go, that's for sure!

"But Yue Shi—" Song Chuxi had an idea, and finally laughed again unexpectedly.

She couldn't tell whether it was self-deprecating or bitter, but in the end, she slowly raised her face inch by inch and looked at Yin Zhan.

Who is Duanmuqi?Now the whole Dayun city is under his control, let alone their Duanmu family?If it wasn't for his intentional connivance and acquiescence, would Yin Shao have brought the Yue family here all the way?

And even if he didn't know in advance, if Yue Shi was taken away, he would definitely get news soon, and if he wanted to stop it, there would be a way.

Just to intensify the previous conflict between the emperor and the Queen Mother of Song, and then create an opportunity for them to rise up in Nantang?
This reason seemed impeccable, but now Song Chuxi couldn't believe it.

"There will be no eternal secrets in this world." Yin Zhan said, taking one of her hands and holding her fingertips, "It's better for you to guess all the time and shake everything out like now On the contrary, it is more clear at a glance. What to do in the future, which way to go, just choose."

The Empress Dowager Song has been hiding this past and entanglements and refuses to speak out, and Song Chuxi has a grateful attitude towards her, and she will be restrained by her all the time.

She herself was too embarrassed to press the Empress Dowager Song, so let others find out all the truth.

"Then—" Of course Song Chuxi knew that he was doing it for her own good, but she looked at him with bitterness at this moment, "How do you think I should choose now?"

"Mrs. Duanmu should not be able to create something out of nothing. This affair was exposed, and it directly became the fault of the Nantang Song family and the Duanmu family. Under the long-standing public opinion, Nantang is the target of public criticism." Yin Zhan's tone was very flat. , his gaze fell on her eyebrows calmly and gently, and he rubbed her cheek with his fingertips, "You are very clear about my suggestion, I don't want you to intervene in this matter again, but... "

He knew Song Chuxi too well.

Although it is the most unwise choice to enter the palace at this time, if you don't go, you probably won't even be able to see the Queen Mother Song for the last time.

She understands the truth, and her choice——

He also understands.

Song Chuxi was just silent and didn't make a sound for a while.

Yin Zhan had no choice but to put his hands on her cheeks back through her loose hair, clasped the back of her neck, pressed her into his arms and hugged her.

Song Chuxi silently let him embrace her.

The time in front of her was very quiet, and he carried a unique and faint scent of spices, which she was familiar with.

"Want to enter the palace?" He asked after a long time.

As he said that, before Song Chuxi could speak, he rubbed the hair on the back of her head and said, "I'll ask them to prepare."

He got up to go outside.

Song Chuxi suddenly grabbed his sleeve by a strange coincidence.

Yin Zhan's footsteps stopped, he lowered his eyes slightly, and when he saw her fingers on his sleeve, his brows were slightly frowned, and then slowly raised his head to look at her face bit by bit.
