Mo Yan led Feng Zhishui into the queen's inner hall.

At that time, the refreshments were already ready.

Feng Zhishui saluted the queen as usual: "I am leaving and returning, disturbing the queen."

"It's okay." Yin Lingyue smiled calmly: "I am free today and I see the sunshine is very good. I think that I only got some good tea in the palace, and the pastries I have made in the palace will definitely suit your taste.

, sit down and taste.”

Of course, he knew the queen's intentions, and Feng Zhishui smiled without showing her teeth and sat down gently.

Mo Li led his maid to serve the pastries.

Feng Zhishui couldn't help but startle, "Oh, how did this make me? My sister is pregnant now, so she should have a good rest. How could she do such a thing for me?"

"There is a lot of people in Feng." Yin Lingyue smiled slightly: "Mo Li is a girl with a solid heart. Although her identity is different now, her heart has not changed at all."

"The people around the Queen should be like this." Feng Zhishui wondered, what is the queen going to do? OK, why do you want to act like this? She never doubted that Mo Li changed her mind about the Queen, thinking

I have to win the favor of this palace by myself.

"Come on, you go back and rest." Yin Lingyue smiled slightly at Mo Li.

"No." Mo Li bowed his head respectfully and led his maids to retreat together.

He picked up the fragrant tea at his hand and sniffed it gently: "The Queen's tea is indeed fragrant and the tea soup is green. Just by sniffing it gently, it makes people feel refreshed."

"Try it quickly." Yin Lingyue smiled with her lips and picked up the teacup at her hand.

Feng Zhishui smiled and sent the tea to his lips, took a sip. The slightly bitterness entered his mouth and throat, and when he sucked it back, he only had a fragrant sweet taste. "This tea should only be found in the sky, it is really wonderful."

"It's good that you like it." Yin Lingyue's eyes turned slightly: "For those who love tea, this tea is a treasure that is hard to find. It's rare for you to like it. I'll send some to you later.

In the palace.”

Feng Zhishui quickly stood up and thanked him: "Thank you for the gift of the Empress."

"Don't be so polite." Yin Lingyue signaled her to sit down and speak. "You will only be a few days apart from entering the palace. After the beginning of spring, we will be serving Your Majesty in the palace for four years."

"Yes." Feng Zhishui said in the sunshine: "The days in the palace are long and twists and turns. Thanks to the Empress, I always give some care."

"That's not what I said." Yin Lingyue smiled slightly: "Of course, there are some inconsiderable things in this palace. Even... there are some things that annoy you."

I knew that the queen was for that matter, and Feng Zhishui was deeply immersed in his heart. "I dare not take this from the Queen. I know that the Queen is devoted to thinking about His Majesty. No matter what I want to do, it is for the Han Dynasty to think about it.

Your Majesty is concerned about the people of the world, and I am humble and do not understand the profound meaning of this. It is inevitable that I will look at the sky and care about my own gains and losses. I also ask the Empress to forgive me."

"These are all official words." Yin Lingyue took another sip of tea before slowly putting the cup in her hand. "Zhishui, there are no outsiders here, so I might as well say something to you with my heart.

This palace is not as long as you think, not why the people are living in the people, nor why the Han Dynasty, I am just for Your Majesty. On that day, Your Majesty was poisoned but had no medicine to treat him. If the blood of Your Majesty could be used by Your Majesty,

There will never be a moment of hesitation. For the court officials and the people, Your Majesty is just a monarch and an emperor, but to those of us who serve Your Majesty... who does not regard Your Majesty as the only good man in this life, can we be useless to us

The husband who grows old together?"

Speaking of this, Feng Zhishui couldn't help but blush his eyes. "What the Empress said is very much."

"I believe that if your blood can be exchanged for Your Majesty, you will not hesitate, just like this one. Isn't it?" Yin Lingyue's eyes were red, and the thin mist in her eyes made her look particularly pitying.

. "I know that nothing is more worried about my mother than the safety of my child. For my mother, the child is her own life. So because of my father's decision, you are afraid and resentful. But Zhishui,

You have to understand that if Your Majesty makes any mistakes, then we all have no hope. But if Your Majesty is safe and sound, to put it bluntly, there will always be children."

How could Feng Zhishui not understand such a great truth? But she couldn't let go of the knot in her heart. "I understand the words of the Queen."

"Of course. You are smart and considerate, and you must understand what this palace said." Yin Lingyue sighed quietly: "But no matter how clear you understand, it is difficult to make a choice. Fortunately, your Majesty this time

It’s just a false alarm. The children have also broken free from such suffering. This palace has not become a sinner in the entire harem, nor has you all hated and hated."

"The Empress is too worried, I dare not." Feng Zhishui quickly stated that the Empress is not able to afford to offend her. "I was indeed very frightened and wanted to be a scared person. After all, I have been in the palace for so many years.

There are only children around me... I really can't bear to leave. As the Empress said, if I want my life, I will not hesitate, but if I want my child... I would rather die by myself."

Feng Zhishui walked forward a few steps and knelt in front of the queen: "Since the Empress said something to me, I dare not hide anything from the Empress at all. On the day of the incident, I did

It was my fault for the Empress. How could I blame the Empress so cruelly? I took away my children like this, and why didn't I give her hope to survive? But now, I have gradually figured it out. It was my concern.

Too few, the trade-offs are wrong…”

"Forget it." Yin Lingyue stood up, walked slowly over, leaned over and helped her up. "I know what you think, and I understand what you think as my mother. After all, I don't have this blessing.

, give birth to the princess. Otherwise, if you want to sacrifice her life to save her father, I will feel the same heartache as you..."

"My lady, don't be sad." Feng Zhishui looked at the queen's pale face, and the resentment in her heart seemed to have diminished a lot. "The little princess must have reached the top of the sky and will watch the queen in the sky and accompany the queen."

"Oh!" Yin Lingyue sighed long, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said, "Even if I am the queen, I can't control the matter of life and death. The fate with that child is too shallow, and there is no other way.

You guys are more blessed."

You guys naturally refer to a few noble people who gave birth to the royal heir.

Feng Zhishui sank his head and didn't say much.

Seeing her heart struggling, Yin Lingyue coughed twice.

"Is the Queen unwell? Do you want to send the imperial physician to come and have a look?" Feng Zhishui was busy caring.

"It's okay." Yin Lingyue smiled lightly. "I have always been in poor health, so I hope you can add a few more royal heirs to Your Majesty."

"The Empress will only affect herself by all the things in the harem." Feng Zhishui helped the Empress sit down and lowered her eyebrows: "I can't share the worries of the Empress, but will make the Empress worry, which is my fault."

"It's not your fault." Yin Lingyue held her hand and asked her to sit beside her. "Actually, among the few nobles, the one I value most is you. Zhou Yunji's disputes that did not get involved in the harem before, but now she has changed.

Liao Zhuobi has always claimed to be the daughter of a hero and despises the concubines in the harem. Yao Jiaer now has the imperial heir and surrenders to Concubine Liang, the most disliked by His Majesty. As for Concubine Deng, her entry into the palace was what His Majesty used to balance the power of the harem.

A chess piece can't be in the same camp as this palace anyway. You are different."

"Empress..." Feng Zhishui was a little confused and couldn't understand what the queen was meant to say this.

"For so many years, although you are not your Majesty's favorite, you have never been left behind by your Majesty. You have never known what you want to do and what you should say. No matter when, you can find your position unbiasedly. This is exactly what

What I value in this palace. If you have a slight rating in your heart, you won’t be lost because of the torrent whirlpool in the palace.” Yin Lingyue held her hand and said, “In fact, surviving in this deep palace is like sailing against the current.

If you really don’t advance, you will retreat. If you don’t fight, it doesn’t mean that others don’t regard you as a thorn in your eyes. Your existence will threaten others.”

Yin Lingyue's words were particularly touching.

Feng Zhishui heard it and couldn't help but tsk. "What the Empress said is very much."

"I remember that before the beginning of the palace, Emperor Deng entered the palace, Your Majesty would always go to your palace to sit in three or five days, or you would say that you would go to Zhangde Palace to play chess and taste wine. But since Emperor Deng entered the palace, your favor is

It's not as good as before. For more than ten days or even longer, Your Majesty may not be able to remember you..." Yin Lingyue saw the loss in Feng Zhishui's eyes, and she couldn't help but feel more confident.

"You are calm and not competing for favor. But what about your child?" Yin Lingyue knew that this was Feng Zhishui's weakness, so she said it was particularly emotional. "If your child is not attracted by His Majesty, maybe in the future.

It is a chess piece that turns the enemy into his own hands.”

"Empress..." Feng Zhishui was filled with panic: "Although I am a little talented and knowledgeable, I also know that there have been such examples in all dynasties. Often, in order to calm the turmoil or buy time for the court, the monarch would marry his woman to his opponent.

, or maybe the ministers in the court who had long been rebellious. In this way, they could feel that the monarch showed goodwill and temporarily stopped abnormal movements, and the court could take the opportunity..."

Yin Lingyue patted the back of her hand and interrupted her. "I just said, you are the smartest. You can do anything at all. It's not that I want to be so young when your child is so young.

It will make you have such worries and troubles. It’s just that parents are children, so they will make plans for the long term…”

"I understand." Feng Zhishui felt his heart beating very quickly. That feeling was really bad.

"Just understand." Yin Lingyue frowned and said, "I am alone in the palace, without a son or half of my daughter. Now the situation in the palace is gradually out of control. I am by my side,

If you are not as smart as you and can help me, if you are willing to share your worries, you will definitely save your daughter from a good home when you come to the Japanese palace. It is like loving my own flesh and blood."

Speaking of this, Feng Zhishui has no other way.

She stood up and walked to the center of the hall, and respectfully gave the queen a big gift: "The Empress cares for my mother and daughter so much. If the Empress does not dislike my stupidity, I am willing to serve the Empress wholeheartedly and share my worries, so as to repay the Empress's misfortune and love.

kindness."

"Okay." Yin Lingyue nodded: "With your words, I will feel at ease."

After this, the queen sent Feng Zhishui back to the palace.

Mo Yu approached and served, so he had to ask a few more questions: "Miss, can this Feng be trusted? Since she entered the palace, she has always been a fence-skinned man. She said whatever she saw. Even His Majesty felt that she was the most humble.

His personality. In the past, Miss, your decision almost endangered her child. Concubine Feng almost ignored the Shengen. Will he be sincere in doing things for you?"

"Although you don't doubt people, you don't need to doubt people, but..." Yin Lingyue smiled gently: "People who think like this must be guarded. Except for you who have followed this palace for many years, the rest of the people in the harem are there.

, I will not believe it."

"I will feel at ease like this." Mo Yu smiled, but for only a moment, his face became bad. "There is another thing. Deng Guiren went to Lecheng Hall at this time and said that he wanted to pay tribute to Concubine Liang.

”

"Is that right?" Yin Lingyue couldn't help but feel something was wrong, "She felt so quickly?"

"That's not necessarily." Mo Yu didn't believe that Guiren Deng would be so smart: "According to your instructions, I will be extra careful this time. If Guiren Deng could detect that something was wrong... Then someone must betrayed.

Miss.”

"Yes." Yin Lingyue's eyes were slightly weak: "Last night, did someone go to her palace?"

"Miss is like a god." Mo Yu smiled mysteriously: "Last night, Guiren Deng was unwell and went to hire an imperial physician. It happened that the imperial physician Su was on duty."

"Yeah." Yin Lingyue nodded: "Doctor Su, okay, I also want to know if this Doctor Su can take care of her illness."
