"Yes." Fu Cheng went to do it immediately.
Only after Fu Cheng left did Bei Mingxuan walk into the room.
"Why did you come so late?" asked the Queen Mother.
"News has come from the front," Bei Mingxuan said, "Li Da has captured two cities in Shijin Kingdom."
"Well, that's kind of..."
"But," Bei Mingxuan interrupted the old queen, looking towards Chang'an, and continued, "The two cities were occupied by the Southern Kingdom's generals, Xuanfeng and Shan Yan."
"Yes, yes..." The old queen's tongue was tied, and she seemed not to know what to say.
When her eyes met Chang'an's, the old queen changed her tone instantly, "It's good to keep the wealth within the family. Chang'an is indeed capable and has many talented people under his command."
Bei Mingxuan, "..."
"!!!" Chang'an's eyes twitched as he heard these words, and a smile appeared on his lips. "I'm sure the Empress Dowager has heard of Xuanfeng."
"Well, no, I, an old woman, don't know him."
Chang'an pretended not to hear the discomfort that the old empress dowager expressed.
"Xuan Feng is your grandson, a person he personally trained. As for Shan Yan, he was originally a subordinate of my mother and the leader of the Fusheng Sect's Fire Sect.
Later, I obeyed my mother's instructions and stayed with my father.
After that, my father became disabled, so he stayed in Gu Qingyun's military camp as a staff member.
Moreover, this Shan Yan is also the half-master of Li Da and Jiang Jun in Shuzhou State. "
"Uh..." The old queen smiled, "I'm just old after all. I can't react well."
Chang'an naturally understood the embarrassment on the old empress dowager's face.
He brought back a few words, without mentioning Gu Qingfeng or the war ahead.
Chang'an had a pleasant chat with the old queen mother.
Bei Mingxuan didn't say anything, but just listened quietly. This was enough for him.
"What are you talking about? You look so happy." Xu Yitong walked in, followed by two guards. The guards were carrying a stretcher with Xu Mengyun lying on it.
Bei Mingxuan frowned slightly, with a look of displeasure on his face.
When the old empress dowager saw Xu Mengyun lying on the stretcher, her first reaction was to look at Chang'an.
"Yitong, are you leaving Shoukang Palace?" The old empress dowager looked at her sharply.
"Since this concerns the health of our mother, Yi Tong dare not leave at will." Xu Yi Tong said.
"It was the head of the prison. He said that he didn't know why Mengyun suddenly fell unconscious and he didn't know what to do.
Originally, I went to the imperial study to look for Xuan'er, but I didn't find her. Even the two brothers Fu Lin and Fu Cheng couldn't find her.
There was really no other way, so I found Shoukang Palace.
Yi Tong refused to leave, so he had to order someone to carry Meng Yun over.
The old queen mother clearly saw a quick flash of unwillingness in Bei Mingxuan's eyes, but she didn't say anything.
"Now that you're here, go and arrange for the imperial physician to come and treat him. When he wakes up, send him back to the prison," said the Queen Mother.
"That's not right." Xu Yitong looked at the Queen Mother, "At least we have to wait for Mengyun to recover.
Besides, Mengyun is already weak, and after years of treatment outside, there has finally been some success. Now staying in prison may cost Mengyun her life."
"I say, Queen Mother," the old Queen Mother frowned and said, "In your eyes, the Emperor's orders are bullshit?
The emperor personally ordered that Xu Mengyun be imprisoned and not allowed to leave the prison without his permission.
Are you deaf or brain damaged, huh?
If the previous emperor was on the throne, it would be understandable, but the one on the throne now is your own son, Xu Yitong. Do you want all the princes and ministers to say something?
The Queen Mother's power is greater than that of the Emperor. Can a casual remark from the Queen Mother override the Emperor's order?"
"No." Xu Yitong immediately looked at Bei Mingxuan, "Xuan'er, that's not what mother meant. Please don't misunderstand."
"Son, I don't misunderstand." Bei Mingxuan said, "Grandmother is right.
The most important thing is not to let the ministers think that Queen Mother Xu's power is greater than mine."
"Yitong," the old queen dowager said, "don't force the emperor to choose between those court officials and the Xu family one day.
If that day really comes, the only one who can sacrifice is the Xu family.
After all, in the Beiming clan's imperial palace, there's a Grand Empress Dowager from the Xu family, and another Empress Dowager from the Xu family... As for the Empress of the Central Palace, there's no need for her to have the surname Xu."
Xu Yitong thought of his brother. When Bei Mingxuan had just ascended the throne, he had asked his brother to come to the court to help him and Xuan'er.
But at that time, his brother actually refused and didn't let Zichu help him.
At that time, I tried my best to keep him, and said that Bei Mingxuan had just ascended the throne and needed his confidants by his side.
That's why his brother kept Xu Zichu. At that time, he also told Xu Zichu to confirm the emperor's words.
Now that I think about it, "listen to the emperor's words" must have meant something else.
"Yes." Xu Yitong said obediently, "Send someone to send Mengyun back later. Yitong was not thoughtful enough about this matter.
As for the Queen of the Central Palace, she is Xuan'er's queen, so naturally Xuan'er has to choose her personally. Besides, Chang'an is there, so the two of them are the first husband and wife.
Mengyun is the daughter of the Xu family, and she likes Xuan'er. According to my heart, I also want to make her a concubine beside Xuan'er.
Just like what the Empress Dowager did to Yi Tong back then, what do you think?
The old queen mother was quite satisfied with what Xu Yitong said. "I don't know how many days I can live as an old woman. I don't care about these trivial matters."
As he said this, he turned to look at Chang'an and took Chang'an's hand.
"As long as Chang'an can stay by my side while I live, and let me hold my great-grandson in my arms, I will be willing to die immediately."
"Then Grandma, please pray that my father's death was not caused by Bei Mingxuan.
Otherwise, you won't be able to hold the great-grandson in Chang'an's belly."
When Changan said this, his eyes were smiling, seven parts teasing and three parts ruffian,
The eyes look red, and the white hair is loose behind him without any restraint.
He was laughing in a very distorted way.
However, everyone present understood that Chang'an's words were serious and there was no falsehood at all.
"Of course," the Queen Mother said with a smile, "The hatred for killing your father is irreconcilable. Of course, the Queen Mother is even more convinced that your father's death had nothing to do with Xuan'er."
"Grandmother." Bei Mingxuan said, "Don't worry, you will definitely be able to hold this great-grandson."
"Okay, okay, okay, then I feel relieved." The old queen mother smiled happily.
"Mother." At this moment, Xu Yitong really looked down upon Chang'an who looked like this. No matter how he looked at her, she looked like a monster.
She saw that the imperial physician had arrived a long time ago and was waiting outside the door.
"The imperial physician has arrived and is waiting outside the door. Do you want to ask him to come in?
