Aunt Gui shook her head: "I don't know either."

I frowned and thought for a while, then turned to look at the large tents on the mountain, then at the huge tent owned by the Queen Mother, and then said to Aunt Gui: "Let me go over and take a look."

"Here, the master is still here."

"It's okay, I just went over to take a look."

Aunt Gui may not want to go there, but she is following the Queen Mother. She has been in this palace for so many years, so she naturally has more concerns. The so-called people who speak softly will not have any good results when dealing with the emperor, so they have been holding back.

I smiled calmly and reassured her, so she said nothing more. I turned around and walked towards the Queen Mother's tent.

The Queen Mother's health is not good, and she has been practicing at the Linshui Pagoda all year round. She is used to a quiet environment. Although she is camping in the wild this time and everything is not as convenient as in the palace, some arrangements have been made for her.

Other tents are allowed to be set up several feet away from the huge tent to ensure that the Queen Mother's residence is quiet and undisturbed.

When I walked over, this place was cleaner and tidier than other places. Before I even got close, I smelled a familiar, faint scent of sandalwood, but it quickly dissipated in the wind.

Blowing over with the wind, there was also the somewhat tired voice of the Queen Mother——

"The Ai family knows, please go back."

"The Queen Mother."

This voice was Shen Gongye. She seemed to want to say something else, but the Queen Mother's voice sounded again in a low voice: "Go down."

"...Yes, I am resigning, old minister."

I listened and hurriedly stepped aside, and sure enough I saw Shen Gongye exiting from inside in a polite manner.

Speaking of the humidity at the bottom of the valley, it may have some impact on older people, but looking at his energetic appearance, it is completely gone from the coughing and breathless appearance in the early morning. After putting down the curtain,

He took a few steps, but then looked back reluctantly.

That gaze was as sharp and profound as that of a predator.

My heart trembled slightly when I saw it, but Shen Gongyou didn't notice me hiding next to him. He just flicked his sleeves, turned around and left.

Immediately, several followers came forward, including General Chen Fu, who seemed to be asking anxiously. Shen Gongye just waved his hand gently and led them away.

After they were far away, I slowly walked out from the side and walked to the door of the tent. In the sound of the wind, I seemed to hear a heavy sigh, but it quickly dissipated like the sandalwood.

.

I frowned slightly, stood still for a while, and finally said softly: "The Queen Mother."

There was a moment of silence inside, and then the Queen Mother's voice came: "Come in."

I opened the curtain and walked in. The Queen Mother's residence was naturally different from other people's homes. It was very big, but there were not many decorations. However, the shrine and incense table were brought along with me. The Queen Mother still knelt on the futon and faced the Buddha.

Reciting in a low voice, I hurried forward when I saw you: "Queen Mother, your health is not good, please don't kneel anymore."

Usually I try to persuade her, and she is willing to listen, but today no matter how much I try to help her, she never moves at all. Instead, she kneels stubbornly on the futon. There seems to be light in her almost gray eyes, and she keeps looking at the Buddha.

, I don’t know why she is so stubborn, so I can only accompany her and kneel next to her: "The Queen Mother..."

After an unknown amount of time, she slowly turned her head and looked at me.

"Girl..."

"Queen Mother, is this what you are doing?"

"Girl, tell me!"

"...What?"

She suddenly grabbed my hand, and her thin fingers had never been so strong before, almost sinking into my skin. I felt a little pain from her pinch, but she didn't care at all and looked straight at me.

Eyes: "Tell Ai Jia, he - is he doing well?"

Him?!

Which him?!

When I heard this sentence, I felt like my chest was hit hard by something, and my breathing suddenly became a little short. After a while, I looked at the eager look in those gray eyes: "Queen Mother, are you asking?

——"

"Tell Ai Jia, is he okay now?"

"..."

There was a buzz in my head, and I knew who she was talking about.

The person she asked was Huang Tianba!

There are some words between me and the Queen Mother that have never been spoken, and there is no need to say them at all. Although until now, I don’t know the cause and effect of those things, the truth has long been clear to me. It’s just——

Queen Mother, why do you suddenly ask this?

Before, when I mentioned Huang Tianba in front of her, she asked about his character, but when she wanted to ask where he was now, she stopped abruptly and did not continue to ask. I can also understand her mood and

I'm worried, it's just that it's been so long, why do I suddenly ask at this time?

At this time, I suddenly remembered - Shen Gongye was here just now!

Could it be that he said something that caused the Queen Mother to behave abnormally now!

There was a buzz in my head, my whole body trembled, and I suddenly became nervous.

Did he, did Shen Gongye know something?

Regarding Huang Tianba, the Queen Mother, and Pei Yuanhao, I have always speculated on the relationship between them. Judging from the Queen Mother's reticence and Aunt Gui's caution, I believe that no one else knows the truth of the matter. I also

It was just that I was lucky enough to pick up those fragments, and I was able to piece together a possible fact. But - if Taifu Shen really came over and said something that caused the Queen Mother to act abnormally, then how did he know?

If he really knew something, then Pei Yuanhao——

When I thought of this, I felt the cold sweat all over my body retracted, and I shuddered involuntarily. Only the spot on my wrist held by the Queen Mother could feel the hotness of her skin - "Tell Ai Jia!"
p>

Her hands were shaking all the time, as if she was trying her best to restrain herself, and her eyes, which were full of coldness in the past, had a different burning heat at this time, as if they were going to burn me. I am used to seeing her.

The calmness and indifference, the bone-deep loneliness in the Linshui Pagoda, seem to be no longer memorable, but now such sudden fluctuations make me feel an indescribable sadness.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

But, can I say it?

I guessed Huang Tianba’s identity and the amazing life story behind him, but if my guess is correct, then - Pei Yuanhao, who is he?

What is the life experience of this man sitting on the throne of the Nine-Five Supreme Being?

I don’t dare to think about the twists and turns, and I don’t dare to think about how shocking it will be to the whole world when these truths are exposed, but I am sure of one thing - it will definitely not have a good impact! <

/p>

No matter who is sitting on the throne now, it can at least ensure the stability of the Central Plains and the stability of the imperial court; and Pei Yuanhao - no matter what, he is still working hard for the world. If the owner changes once, it will cause not only

It’s just a change of position and identity. I saw it with my own eyes when Pei Yuanhao forced the palace to seize the throne. Rivers of blood and corpses littered the fields, but it was just a fight between brothers within a family. If foreign enemies were really introduced——
p>

The more I thought about it, the more frightened I felt, and I couldn't help but tremble a little.

After an unknown amount of time, he slowly raised his head, looked into the Queen Mother's almost red eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "He, his situation is good."

"..."

The Queen Mother looked at me hard, her eyes were so focused that she seemed to be able to see through my eyes.

Her gaze made me feel as if my whole heart was slowly burning on a small fire. There was an indescribable pain that was slowly, slowly spreading.

"He——" Recalling the words of the old man in the caravan I met on the way here, I thought about it for a long time and said slowly: "There is a person for whom I can do whatever it takes, even if it costs my country.

To make him happy."

"..."

"In the eyes of the world, this kind of life is the ultimate in the world."

"..."

"He is - living very well..."

My voice became lower and lower, and in the end, I could barely hear it.

I know, no.

Although, there is one person who will greet him, even though there is someone who wants to make him happy no matter how much it costs; even though, his life is extremely rich...

But I know that's not the case.

Like me, he does not seek the ultimate wealth in the world, nor does he seek a magnificent prison.

Besides——

At the end of the story, I just felt my nose was sore. The Queen Mother looked at me and seemed to calm down slowly. She also let go of my wrist. There were still a few red marks on it from her excessive exertion. After a long time,

She then turned her head to look at the Buddha, took a deep breath, and said, "He is not doing well."

For a moment, I felt that all the sounds were stuck in my throat. I wanted to say something, but I couldn't utter a single word. I just looked into her eyes, and all the light was slowly dimming, as if she was merging into

In the eternal night.
