The Queen of War

Zhong Wuyan's hand used dark force, and the painful man screamed loudly.

"What sound?" at this time, Yan Ying was also awakened by the terrible cry.

Although his height was not so satisfactory, he moved very fast. Like a little mouse, he rushed into Zhong Wuyan's room and lit a candle.

On Zhong Wuyan's bed stood an old woman with white hair. She was very ugly and ugly as a ghost. However, the clear shadow on the ground was enough to prove that it was a person, not a female ghost, although she looked very much like the one who had just climbed out of the grave. The old woman was very thin. She seemed to be just a skeleton supporting the wide black dress.

"There are people in the world who are uglier than me!" Yan Ying looked at the old woman's face and felt happy and thought casually.

He always felt that he was the product of God's jokes. Unexpectedly, there were more excellent people in the world, which made him feel much more comfortable. It seems that God is good to himself. At least he is not ugly enough to scare people to death. The old woman in front of her, who came out in the middle of the night, had a very high chance of frightening people to death. Fortunately, he and Zhong Wuyan were brave, otherwise they would faint directly.

Zhong Wuyan sat on the bed with cold eyes: "who are you?"

The old woman didn't seem afraid of Zhong Wuyan. She sneered: "this should be the old man asking, who are you? Why do you live here? Don't you know that this is someone else's house?"

Her voice was very ugly, like a skeleton in the wind, with a terrible cold.

Seeing this, Yan Ying hurried forward, pushed the old woman away like a ghost and sneered, "what other people's house? Is it yours?"

He vaguely felt that the old woman must have a very close relationship with the Zhong house. Otherwise, how could she show up here in the middle of the night?

Zhong Wuyan quietly looked at the ghost like face and suddenly felt a familiar feeling. She hesitated and asked in a low voice, "are you grandma Feng?"

In my memory, grandma Feng, who manages the kitchen in Zhongfu, has such terrible teeth. In the past, mother-in-law Feng joked that she would lose all her teeth early. She didn't have lips to protect her from the wind and cold in winter. Isn't it cold?

The old woman listened and looked at Zhong Wuyan with some amazement, and her whole body trembled slightly.

"Who are you?" her eyes were full of doubts and asked, "how do you know my last name is Feng?"

Hearing this, Zhong Wuyan was overjoyed and quickly got out of bed: "mother-in-law, I am Wuyan!"

There was no place to look for her broken iron shoes. She never dreamed that she had run for several days without any news. Mother Feng would send it to the door by herself!

"Wuyan?" the old woman looked up and down, shook her head and sneered, "Miss Zhong is gorgeous. How can you be an ugly girl? Although I haven't seen her for many years, I clearly remember that she is a beautiful girl. She is more beautiful than the peach blossoms on the branches."

Her impression of Zhong Wuyan still lingers on the beautiful and pure little girl more than ten years ago. She felt that even if Zhong Wuyan grew up and changed her appearance, she was definitely a top beauty.

Yan Ying listened and said with a smile, "doesn't mother-in-law know that Miss Zhong has become the queen of Qi?"

The world knows that the queen of Qi is an ugly woman. How can this mother-in-law Feng know?

"Of course I know!" grandma Feng sneered, "Those people outside can really spread rumors that the queen is ugly. Others don't know. I've served the eldest lady for several years, so why don't I know her face? She's very beautiful and definitely a real beauty. They all say that concubine Xia is the first beauty in Qi, but in my opinion, the eldest lady is the most beautiful."

Yan Ying also clearly remembers that Zhong Wuyan was as beautiful as a flower when she was a child. However, he can't remember clearly when she put on the golden mask. He didn't ask. It must have happened that she had to cover her face with that ferocious mask.

"I'm really Wuyan!" Zhong Wuyan listened and said to mother-in-law Feng, "mother-in-law, can you remember that you bathed me when I was a child, and there was a peach blossom birthmark on my right shoulder blade. At that time, you joked with me that a woman with a peach blossom birthmark committed a peach blossom."

Mother Feng was stunned.

She hurried forward and pulled off Zhong Wuyan's clothes, revealing her snow-white fragrant shoulder.

Seeing this, Yan Ying quickly turned his back and didn't look.

Zhong Wuyan turned around, and mother-in-law Feng raised the candle. Sure enough, on the snow-white fragrant shoulder, there was a charming red plum in full bloom.

"Is it really the eldest lady?" Granny Feng looked at it in amazement. Some couldn't believe her eyes. She quickly stretched out her hand and rubbed the delicate peach blossom vigorously, for fear that the color was painted, not the birthmark.

However, the delicate peach blossoms are still in full bloom. On the snow like skin, they are so beautiful and charming.

"It's really the eldest lady!" grandma Feng's muddy eyes were filled with sad tears.

Her body was trembling slightly. She held Zhong Wuyan in her arms and didn't want to loosen it anymore.

"After all these years, why don't you come back and have a look?" grandma Feng burst into tears, "The master died and everyone left. In those years, I also wandered to a foreign land and begged for a living. Later, I thought about my hometown and came back. I was happy to hear that you were Queen. I knew that I would do something with Miss's appearance and talent..."

"Then why don't you look for me?" Zhong Wuyan, with tears in her eyes, gently wiped away the tears from Grandma Feng's eyes. "I don't know where you are, but since you know my whereabouts, you can look for me."

Mrs. Feng shook her head.

"It's enough for me to know you're doing well," she sobbed. "I've also heard that the king doesn't love you, but only the Xia imperial concubine. If I come to you, you won't ignore it, but it will bring you trouble. But I really didn't expect to see the eldest lady in my lifetime..."

Some things in the palace have already spread their wings and flew all over the streets. If there is something Zhong Wuyan and nothing Xia Yingchun, how can grandma Feng know that even a three-year-old child knows? She would rather live in the streets begging than bring a little trouble to Zhong Wuyan.

Night, like ink, dyed the whole sky black.

The little candle light jumped and lit up grandma Feng's muddy eyes.

"The master came back from the capital by boat and heard that he saved the eldest lady in the river." grandma Feng looked at Zhong Wuyan's thin face with a happy smile, "But when the master was alive, he didn't allow us to say this. But the master told you that if the young lady wants to know the truth after he left, she can tell you."
