"Empress..."

Nan Yan sat at the table, staring at the swaying candlelight on the table in a daze. At this time, the door was pushed open and Aunt Tongyun walked in from outside.

Spring has already begun and the weather has become warmer.

But when she opened the door, a gust of wind blew in, which made Nan Yan shudder suddenly.

Aunt Tongyun hurriedly went to the clothes hanger to pick up a piece of clothes, gently put it on Nanyan's shoulder, and said softly: "Empress, be careful not to catch a cold."

Nan Yan looked back at her and smiled faintly.

The candlelight swayed, reflecting her eyes.

There seemed to be tears in my eyes.

Seeing her like this, Aunt Tongyun was also very sad and said softly: "The Empress is still missing Qiu."

“…”

After Tingfu brought a bowl of medicine into the main hall, Aunt Tongyun and Ruoshui, who were standing outside waiting for the appointment, understood what was going on.

After dark, Xiao Fuzi took the man to carry a stretcher and carried a body out.

People are gone just like that.

Aunt Tongyun is not stupid either. When she recalled what happened these days, she left the expressions of the two of them when she talked to the imperial concubine alone, and probably guessed what was going on.

In her heart, she was even more shocked and sadder than hearing that the murderer who harmed the princess was Shen.

It's even more unbelievable.

Nanyan said bitterly: "How can you not think about it?"

“…”

"I am still thinking about it now. When she came to work with you, she was only seventeen or eighteen years old. Her eyes were so clean and smart. She has helped me a lot over the years."

“…”

"I thought everything would be fine, but why did she change?"

Thinking of this, Nan Yan choked and couldn't continue to say anything.

Compared to anger, she felt more uncomfortable, and her internal organs were tied together, making her feel uncomfortable even when she breathed.

That's someone I trust...

Aunt Tongyun's eyes were also a little red.

But at this time, she calmed down and said softly: "My lady, don't be too sad. The road was chosen by herself. If it is to be sad, it is also her own sad."

“…”

"In fact, people will change, everyone will change."

“…”

"In this palace, some people will become bad, so there must be some people willing to keep their true intentions, and some people are even willing to learn well; but it is too easy for people to learn bad things, but it is not easy."

“…”

Hearing her words, Nan Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"yes."

After experiencing so many people and things over the years, can’t she understand?

Just like Zhu Feng, from the beginning, he was bloodthirsty and easy to kill, and changed little by little until today, he could actually control his killing nature. She knew more than anyone else how much effort he had spent.

But it is too easy to fall.

Wu, Feng, and Shen are examples.

As for, it is not easy to keep your original heart.

Just like yourself

Since Xue Yun appeared, he has become less like himself.

Even at that time, when Nian Qiu was punishing Xue Yun, she really felt that it was no big deal. She just scolded her for a few words, but when I think about it carefully, I wouldn't be like this in normal times.

Unfortunately, I didn’t really spend time teaching Nianqiu to prevent problems from happening.

With the first "prank", there will be the second "evil".

And if I have acquiesce once, I may have a second condonation.

In the end, I may really change slowly. Human nature cannot stand the test. Who can guarantee that I will not become a person like Wu Wan, Feng Qianyan, and Shen Lianxiang?

In fact, when it comes to these people, who is born to be a bad person?

It's just a depravity step by step.

She looked at Aunt Tongyun and said softly: "Did I have become less like myself these days?"

Aunt Tongyun's eyes were gentle and she said softly: "Empress, etiquette and law are more important than human hearts."

“…”

"Even if the seven-part order does not make a woman jealous, when encountering emotional matters, who can't have any fluctuations in her heart? If her heart is not moved at all, wouldn't it be a dead person?"

Nanyan listened and smiled faintly.

I thought to myself: Yes, maybe it is because of this, so Zhu Feng said to himself, "I promise you jealous."

Even if he was allowed to enter the palace and become a concubine, he still hoped that he was a living person.

Aunt Tongyun poured another cup of tea and gently put it to her hand, saying, "People will be jealous, but what to do after jealousy is different for everyone."

“…”

"I have always believed that the Empress is different from them."

Nanyan looked up at her.

After a while, he whispered: "I almost forgot about it myself."

Aunt Tongyun smiled and said, "If you walk too far, you will inevitably forget something. Sometimes, you might as well stop and look back. Maybe you can understand better why you have come to this point and how to go next."

Nan Yan said: "Tongyun, thank you."

Aunt Tongyun immediately said, "Why did the Empress tell me this?"

Nan Yan smiled and said, "I am different from others. There is probably one thing that is because I am surrounded by you and Xiaoyu, not those who encourage the master to be out of order and even fan the flames and do bad things all day long."

Aunt Tongyun smiled and said, "It is because the empress is wise that she can keep herself clean."

Nan Yan nodded with a smile.

She lowered her head and took a sip of tea, and asked again, "By the way, hasn't the emperor come yet?"

When he was in the imperial study during the day, Zhu Feng asked her to come back to solve his own affairs first, and he still had something to ask Xue Yun, but if such a big thing was solved, he should come here.

Aunt Tongyun said, "I am here to tell the queen about this."

"how?"

Aunt Tongyun said, "I heard from the people in the Imperial Study that shortly after the Empress left, the emperor asked me to go to the house of Xue to pass the imperial edict, and told me that Xue's mother would enter the palace."

"Mother? Xue Yun's mother has also come to Yan Country?"

"It seems to be."

“…”

Nan Yan raised his eyebrows slightly.

I don’t know if it was because the wind blew at this time and the candlelight was swaying, but something seemed to be flashing in her eyes.

After a while of silence, she said calmly: "I know."

“…”

"Her mother is still in the palace at this moment?"

"I heard that I've left."

“…”

"However, someone saw that Mrs. Xue's expression was not right. She was fine when she entered the palace, but she became dismal when she left. When she was about to trip, she almost tripped by the threshold when she was about to go out."

"……oh."

Nan Yan became calmer when he heard this.

And just then, Eunuch Yu's voice came from outside: "The emperor is here!"

When Nan Yan heard this, he hurriedly raised his head.
