The queen is shocked

Chapter 279

Bu Jingyan walked into the hall with her chest out and her hands behind her back, her eyes were slightly relaxed, although she didn't smile, it made people feel that she was not afraid of women in palace costumes.

"Empress, Miss is back." The little maid who was waiting on Bu Jingyan knelt in the main hall, turned her head when she heard footsteps, and immediately lowered her head to report.

"Mn." Empress Zhao took a sip of tea, slowly raised her head, looked at the woman under the steps, and after a long time, ordered: "Watch the seats."

Bu Jingyan thanked him politely, and sat down on the chair brought by the maid.

Empress Zhao glanced outside the door, and the corners of her lips were slightly pursed and gradually curved upwards, concealing her sharpness a lot, "I heard that you and the crown prince just came back from Lingzhou?"

"Yes."

Bu Jingyan took the teacup from the maid's hand and lowered her eyes.She just came back from Lingzhou, and she came to question her. I don't know if she humiliated her like she was in Zhongzhou City this time, or did she have other intentions?

She has been in the Prince's Mansion for some time, and Empress Zhao often stays in the Prince's Mansion for a day or two because she has to prepare for the Prince's draft. Judging from how well she knows her whereabouts, Empress Zhao must know her whereabouts She existed, but she never came, which made her feel very uneasy.Is it good or bad for a sudden visit now?

"I heard that this trip is to participate in the gambling game of King Zhongtian?" Empress Zhao deepened her smile, and asked with a pleasant face, "I don't know how to win or lose?"

Bu Jingyan smiled slightly, and said truthfully, "It's a small victory."

Empress Zhao nodded her head, and looked at her with deep meaning, "It's so good, it seems that the prince has really good vision."

Bu Jingyan was a little confused, so, didn't she come to make things difficult for her?

Empress Zhao took a full view of her doubts, raised her hand, and signaled the maids around her to stay outside, leaving only one order, and then said in a harmonious voice: "I heard that when you were in Peizhou, you improved a I don’t know if it’s true or not to plant a machine crossbow and set up two schemes to severely injure Xiaoyao Wang and Xia Jun at the same time?”

Bu Jingyan really didn't understand her intentions, so she tried her best to remain calm: "I dare not take the credit, it's all the credit of the generals of the Peizhou Army."

Empress Zhao lowered her head and drank tea: "I've heard about this for a long time, but no matter what the situation is, it's not easy for you as a woman to be able to advance and retreat with everyone without panic in that situation. I admire you very much." Focusing, but it can be felt that she has actually been paying attention to any changes in Bu Jingyan's expression.

Bu Jingyan looked humble: "Don't dare."

Empress Zhao smiled and asked her again: "Have you gotten used to living in the Prince's Mansion recently? If you need anything, just ask the manager, you're welcome."

Bu Jingyan was a little impatient with her out-of-the-box behavior, but she always responded calmly. The next questions were nothing more than trivial matters, such as whether there was anything wrong with the prince's treatment of her. Yes, I hope she can forgive or point it out, she will train the prince well and so on.

Bu Jingyan's scalp was numb when she heard this, and she responded with a few casual words. Empress Zhao suddenly changed the subject and said casually, "I heard that you were married to Feng Jiuzheng, King Qin of Daxia?"

Bu Jingyan heaved a long sigh of relief, and said lightly: "Now that the prince is being drafted, the little girl knows her identity. The empress don't have to worry that I will pester the prince. After a few days, I will leave Liyue." As long as Mu Changfeng said what she wanted to know, and she would turn around and leave without hesitation.

Empress Zhao smiled and shook her head: "No, Miss Bu may have misunderstood what I mean. What I mean is that as long as the prince is willing and you two are in love, I hope that your lovers will eventually get married."

Bu Jingyan was stunned. Didn't she object to Mu Changfeng's association with her before?

Empress Zhao stood up, eyes full of guilt, "I know that the crown prince is a person who is indifferent to fame and fortune. His shortcoming is that he values ​​affection and righteousness too much. But when he was born in the emperor's family, there is no affection at all." ?So for so many years, I have been strict and cruel in educating him, almost without any freedom, but what can I do? If I don’t do this, how many times have our mother and son died? As smart as Miss Bu As a woman, you must be able to imagine the hardships and dangers of our existence in the palace, and the sufferings involved cannot be expressed in words."

She sighed, her eyes were lonely and desolate, and there was a sense of sadness and helplessness, which really made people deeply feel the helplessness of a mother fighting to the death for her son in the deep palace.In fact, what she said was very reasonable. In the palace, no matter whether it was a man or a woman, they were fighting for the highest position all the time, and all stumbling blocks would be kicked away without hesitation.

Seeing that she was silent, Empress Zhao only smiled softly, walked over slowly step by step, took her hand, and said softly: "As a mother, I naturally know that Changfeng really likes you. Ever since I was a child, I I have never satisfied any of his demands, but this time, I decided to leave him a space of autonomy in matters of marriage. Since he likes you, I sincerely request as a mother, and hope that Miss Bu can participate in this event. The draft, okay?"

Bu Jingyan was startled, and hurriedly pulled out his hand and shook his head, "Your Majesty may have misunderstood, Changfeng and I are not the kind of relationship that we like each other and decide for life..."

Empress Zhao hurriedly interrupted her: "Don't be shy, although I don't know much about you young people, but I have also experienced it. Even if you have no relationship or background in Liyue now, as long as Chang Feng likes it, I will support it. He is in the end. I will do my best to arrange the draft, and Miss Bu can rest assured."

For such a considerate mother, Bu Jingyan couldn't find a suitable excuse for a while, "No, the empress should also know that I was married in Daxia, and later I married the Snow King..."

"Aren't those things in the past? I know that Feng Jiu is the King of the Snow Region, but now the King of the Snow Region has married someone else, and there are rumors that he is sick. How can you still be together with such a person? Know You value love, but you can't ruin your marriage with Changfeng because of this. You and Changfeng have been together for a while. I heard that when you were in Zhongzhou City, you faced each other day and night for several months. I believe you also understand him. , although the appearance is flashy, but the inside is very sincere. If you get his heart, he will almost never change in his life. Don't you have the heart to refuse such a good man? "

"I……"

Bu Jingyan wanted to decline, but a male voice suddenly came from outside, "Xiaocheng Xiaohong, you two are getting more and more beautiful, but what should I do? It's terrible to be locked in the deep palace like this. It's better to waste the good time in the future. The crown prince found a good husband for the two younger sisters to marry."
