However, he actually treated Ah Yue like this. Nangong Xuan remembered that he had knelt outside the Holy Sage's palace and asked many times to intercede with the Holy Sage. However, the Holy Sage had clearly not rested, but refused to see him. Nangong Xuan even heard the Holy Sage's words. I lost my temper inside and didn't want to see him. I wouldn't even agree to his request. The Holy One really wanted Ah Yue's life.

Therefore, after this incident, Nangong Xuan felt cold towards the Holy Lord. Although he had been helping the Holy Lord recently, he did not try his best as before. Facing such a Holy Lord, Nangong Xuan was really benevolent and righteous.

Therefore, when faced with the lobbying of his eldest daughter Nangong Xue, he did not agree, but he no longer objected strongly. Alas, he looked at his younger daughter again and touched her head. "Ayue, you go to rest, there are matters in the court. Just leave it alone." Let everything take its course. If it is true, it may not be impossible to let the King of Qing become the emperor. As long as the Holy Emperor can live well, it may not be bad to change to another emperor.

After all, although he is loyal to the emperor, he is even more loyal to the people.

What Shen Lian didn't expect was that in just three days, there would be a change of dynasty. His Majesty gave up the throne to his eldest brother, His Highness Prince Qing. Soon, His Highness Prince Qing held a succession ceremony and became the emperor. And Ah My elder sister became the Queen, Queen Nangong. My father has been idle at home and has not gone to court for a few days.

It was probably a helpless and silent resistance to the huge changes happening before our eyes.

On this day, Nangong Xue came back. She was only three months pregnant, and her body shape had not changed. The gold hairpin was inserted in her bun, and she was dressed in a red queen's attire, which made her even more graceful and luxurious. Shen Lian greeted him affectionately as before. When she found that her father was not at the door, she heard Nangong Xue whisper.

"I deliberately didn't let dad know that I was back. Sister, I want to talk to you first. Let's go to your room."

So, they went to Nangong Yue's boudoir together. Nangong Xue also asked his confidant maid Qiu Feng to guard the door. Now Qiu Feng has become a first-class female official beside the queen.

Shen Lian took the initiative to hold Nangong Xue's arm, and the two sat down on the chair together. Nangong Xue held her hand and said with a smile: "Ah Yue, sister wants you to persuade dad. My words, Dad has always refused to agree to return to the court and continue to be the prime minister. I think maybe your words may be useful in persuading dad."

It turned out that she wanted her help to persuade her father to return to the court as soon as possible, continue to serve as prime minister, and help the current sage to suppress the grand master. After all, the current sage and her brother-in-law are actually just a puppet emperor. The real power is still in the hands of the emperor. Grand Master Yun Heng, he is the actual emperor. If dad continues to refuse to help, the holy brother-in-law will definitely be even more passive.

Shen Lian nodded. She knew that in the original plot, her father would return to his post soon. "Okay, sister, I will help you persuade your father. By the way, sister, can I ask you a question?" She was very happy. I'm curious whether the baby in my sister's belly is her brother-in-law's or Yun Heng's.

Nangong Xue smiled and nodded, "Ayue, just ask, what is our relationship?"

"Sister," Shen Lian leaned close to Nangong Xue's ear and whispered: "Sister, I want to ask, is the child in your belly your brother-in-law's or the grand master's?"

As soon as she said this, Nangong Xue stepped back a little in shock. She looked at her little sister in surprise. She didn't know why Nangong Yue would ask this. How could Ah Yue think that this child is Yun Heng's? That's what she thought , also asked the same question.

Shen Lian said with some embarrassment: "After all, Sister, I had an affair with the Grand Master before... Moreover, officials from the Grand Master's party have been strongly recommending that the child in your belly, Sister, be crowned the crown prince. So, I... ..."

It turns out that this is the case, because the officials who followed Yun Heng before have been strongly recommending her child to be crown prince. That's why Ah Yue had this suspicion, suspecting that the child in her belly was Yun Heng's. Nangong Xue shook her head funnyly, "No , the child in sister’s belly is indeed your brother-in-law’s. Yun Heng and I have never had any physical contact, how could it be his child.”

Well, it seems that some of the plots of the original plot have been changed. Originally, this was indeed Yun Heng's child, although it was a daughter. But now, it has become the brother-in-law's child. Perhaps, there may not be a girl in the belly. . It seems that something has changed. Shen Lian quickly apologized, "Sister, it's my fault. I shouldn't doubt you."

Nangong Xue touched her hair and smiled but said nothing. She did not blame Nangong Yue, Nangong Yue would always be her most beloved sister. After the two sisters talked for a while, Nangong Xue left here and went to the study to see Nangong Xuan.

Shen Lian sat down and thought silently, how should she persuade her father to go back as soon as possible and continue to serve as prime minister. Of course, she was also doing this to help her sister and brother-in-law.

On Yun Heng's side, he was talking with his confidant general. He expected that it would be a matter of time for Nangong Xuan to return to the court. And now that Xue'er has become the queen, she must be looking towards the emperor. After all, she really wants to be the queen. .Now that her wish has been granted, she is even less willing to see him. If it were before, he would definitely be sad, but now he doesn't feel much.

Seeing that he was distracted again, General Shu wondered what the Lord was thinking. "Ahem, Lord, you..." What were you thinking? They were discussing such an important matter, and you actually lost your mind.

Nangong Yue, is the Lord thinking about Nangong Yue, Miss Nangong? General Shu was suddenly so blessed that he could guess right, even though he was not sure. These days, he always felt that the Lord's feelings for the Queen were not as good as before. He Although she supported her husband's succession and made Nangong Xue the queen, the Lord no longer went to the harem to see the queen in recent days.

When Dongxia came in, he found that his girl was bowing her head in deep thought. She didn't know what she was thinking. She was the eldest girl. No, did the queen come back and say something to the girl? Before she could ask anything, the master sent someone over.

Nangong Xuan sent the housekeeper here to find the girl in the study. Hey, eldest girl, no, hasn’t the Queen already gone to see the master? Before Dongxia said anything, Shen Lian got up and went over. It was probably Nangong Xueti It has touched her, so dad came to ask her opinion. Now Nangong Xuan no longer avoids Shen Lian's affairs in the court, and he will listen to her opinion.

Because he discovered that his youngest daughter also had considerable insights into court affairs. When Shen Lian came to the study, Nangong Xue had disappeared. She must have returned to the palace. "Dad, are you looking for me?"

Nangong Xuan looked at her, waved to her, and motioned for her to come over. "Yes, Ah Yue, there is something daddy wants to ask your opinion about. Do you think daddy should go back to court?" He originally planned to go back, Staying at home for a while is just to calm down my emotions. The court changed dynasties so quickly, and there was a new emperor, although they were all of the blood of the previous emperor.

But it still made him feel a little uncomfortable. Although he felt cold towards the previous emperor, after all, he had sworn to protect his throne. But in the end, he lost his throne and was sent to another place. Now, although he is still alive, he is being watched all the time. It should be said that he is being watched closely and he no longer has freedom in life.

However, it is good that he is alive. Nangong Xuan thought so, and then he looked up at Xiao Yue'er. He wanted to see if her suggestion coincided with his. The current Holy Emperor is his Son-in-law, the Queen is his eldest daughter. It is natural that he should help the current Holy One. Moreover, now that the matter has come to this, the current Holy One is also of the blood of the late emperor.

Therefore, Nangong Xuan felt that he had not broken his promise to the late emperor. He would protect the late emperor's bloodline and the inheritance of the throne. He would not let those people seek to usurp the throne or seize the throne. As long as he is still alive, he will The grand master will not be allowed to usurp the throne and seek to seize the throne.

After Shen Lian pondered in his mind for a while, he looked at his father seriously. "Dad, I think you should return to the court as soon as possible. Only when you are in the court can the old ministers have a backbone and can they be united. Furthermore, the Holy Spirit also He needs to rely on his father for support, otherwise he may only be the grand master's puppet emperor for the rest of his life. He may not be able to be an emperor in name only at some point."

What she said was the truth, and Nangong Xuan nodded in agreement. In fact, he thought so too, and he would definitely go back. This is a matter of time, and it is a matter of time for him to return to the court. "Ayue, you also think that daddy You should go back as soon as possible to continue being the prime minister and help the Holy One. Your sister has come to persuade dad several times, and it seems you think so too."

Shen Lian nodded, "Yes, Dad, you didn't plan to never go back. You are not that kind of person, and you will not resign at this time and let go. Besides, the Holy Lord is your son-in-law now. Just forget it. You can ignore the promise you made with the late emperor, and you won't ignore my sister. Besides, now, everything is a foregone conclusion. Dad, what do you think?"

Nangong Xuan stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Yes, dad will definitely keep his promise to the late emperor. As for your sister, dad will not ignore it, and she will have a grandson soon. Dad originally thought so too. , it’s time to return to the court. It seems that we all have the same opinion. Ah Yue, do you think Grand Master Yun Heng is plotting to usurp the throne?"

"Even if he thinks about it, he can't do it. The ministers of the court will not agree. At most, he can only be a powerful minister who controls the government, because of his origin and the low status of his mother. This is something that can never be overcome. Abyss. So, even if he wants to, he still can't ascend to the throne of God. So dad, you don't have to worry too much."

Shen Lian's words made Nangong Xuan nod with pleasure. Yes, even if the Grand Master holds military power and controls the government; even if he has many party members and supporters, his background is always a fatal weakness. After all, he is not a royal family. And he was not born into a noble family. His mother's status was even more humble, so this is the reason why Yun Heng has never been able to ascend to the throne of God.

Although his first wife was born into a noble family, she still could not change his background. Therefore, unless he could marry a noble lady again and get the support of the noble family, he would be able to seek the throne. Shen Lian's task was only to conquer the clouds. Heng is not responsible for planning for him to usurp the throne. Therefore, she doesn't care whether he becomes emperor or not.

Furthermore, now that her brother-in-law is the emperor, those who have been kicked off the throne will not have a good ending. Just like the previous emperor, I am afraid he only has half a month left to live. Yun Heng will take care of it personally.
