Return of the Swallow

Qin Yining has a heavy body, so naturally he wouldn't embarrass himself in such matters, so he just knelt down and thanked him.

Still in a daze? Hurry up and help your daughter-in-law up. Li Qitian didn't even let her finish the ceremony, and urged Pang Xiao with an intimate tone, as if he was his own brother.

Pang Xiao smiled and said yes, jumped out of the car, lifted Qin Yining easily and put him on the carriage, and then sat down next to her.

The carriage is very spacious, and there is still plenty of room for four people.

Li Qitian sat upright and Pang Xiao and Ji Zeyu talked in a low voice all the way, and did not neglect Qin Yining during this period.

Qin Yining could tell that after having to expose his power, Li Qitian no longer regarded her as a courtier's wife, but really regarded her as a capable general like Pang Xiao and Ji Zeyu.

Not long after, a group of people entered the palace gate smoothly.

Qin Yining couldn't help raising the curtain and looking out.

In the dark night, the red palace walls and floor tiles were still covered with dark brown marks, and there were even corpses of palace servants and guards who fell on the ground and had no time to clean them up.

The wooden wheels rolled on the silent palace road, making a burst of noise. Because of the dark and bloody environment around, everything looked eerie and weird.

A place like the imperial palace has always accumulated resentment.

Sister Yi, don't look at it. Pang Xiao grabbed Qin Yining's shoulders and straightened her body.

At this time, except for Li Qitian, none of the other three people in the carriage felt happy. Such casualties may not be worth mentioning in Li Qitian's eyes, but he still thinks it is a good deal to die before regaining the throne. In fact, the strategy that Qin Yining and Pang Xiao discussed was indeed the cheapest way to get back.

However, seeing with his own eyes the blood-stained brick walls and ground, even Pang Xiao and Ji Zeyu, seeing with his own eyes the relatives who used to follow him died in such a power conspiracy, but it was not the real blood spilled on the battlefield. The pain in their hearts is incomprehensible to others.

Your Majesty. Outside the carriage, Hu Zi said, The Empress Dowager is in the Empress Dowager's Palace at this moment. Should Your Majesty go to the Imperial Study Room first, or go to the Ci'an Palace to greet the Empress Dowager?

Li Qitian looked at the sky, thought for a while and said: Of course I have to go to pay the Queen Mother first.

Yes. Huzi ordered, Send him to Ci'an Palace.

The carriage traveled along the palace road all the way to Ci'an Palace.

The guards guarding the gate of Ci'an Palace saw a spacious and gorgeous carriage approaching slowly surrounded by guards from a distance, and they all stepped forward to salute.

The witty servant took a few steps back, turned around and went to the Queen Mother to deliver the letter, cheering loudly: Queen Mother, Queen, Your Majesty is back!

The Empress Dowager was guarding a silk lantern at this time, and took a cold handkerchief from the palace man to apply to her eyes swollen from crying to peaches. Hearing this, she stood up excitedly and almost overturned the palace lantern.

What are you talking about! Are you really the Holy One! If you dare to lie to Aijia, Aijia will kill you!

I don't dare to lie, the servant is really back! The little servant was so frightened that he fell to his knees with a plop.

The queen had already stood up, and was supported by the palace servants around her towards the gate of the palace, with tears rolling in her eye sockets.

It's His Majesty who's back! It really is him!

The queen has never experienced such a thrilling experience in her life. First, she was crucified to death in his own palace by King Li Jun, and he also said that she would starve to death if she was not given food or drink. If his mind was not so strong, he might have committed suicide on the spot in despair. Unexpectedly, she gritted her teeth and persisted, and didn't even implement the several survival methods envisioned in her mind. That night, Pang Xiao and Ji Zeyu's subordinates rushed into the palace to rescue her.

The queen was full of gratitude to Pang Xiao and Ji Zeyu. She had seen through it now. When the Holy Majesty was trapped in the underground palace, only Ji Zeyu was willing to contribute so much. He stood on the mountain and vowed not to go down the mountain until the Holy Majesty was rescued.

From the few words of the Queen Mother, the Queen also learned that Qin Yining came to the palace today to deliver a letter for the Holy Majesty.

In addition, now that the imperial palace has been recaptured, the Holy Majesty has returned to the palace safely.

It is already obvious who is right and who is wrong, who is evil and who is evil.

Without Ji Zeyu and Pang Xiao, she and the child in her stomach would probably have to die. Is it possible to expect one of them to be frightened?

The forbidden and extremely selfish mother-in-law came to save her?

The queen's eyes darkened, and she walked out with her waist supported.

The Queen Mother moved faster than her.

The empress dowager, whose whole body was weak and her legs were trembling from the fright, now walked like a young servant.

My son, my son is fine!

The Empress Dowager rushed to the gate of Ci'an Palace excitedly, just as she saw Qin Yining getting off the carriage with the help of Pang Xiao, then Ji Zeyu jumped down lightly, and Li Qitian finally stepped on the footstool with the support of two courtiers However down.

My son!

The queen mother opened her arms and rushed over, hugging Li Qitian: My son, you are going to die for your mother! You and I thought that you had... already... If you don't come back, you will die for your mother! Not alive!

The sadness and sorrow accumulated over the past few days were vented at this moment. The empress dowager cried so much that the guards were all moved.

The queen stood not far away holding her belly, watching all this, but felt a little funny.

Queen Mother, is everyone blind?

Is she worried about her son? Perhaps worried. But his son's life is not as important as her life, not as important as the glory of her mother's family, but now he is showing such a face, which makes people find it ridiculous.

Li Qitian patted the Empress Dowager on the back with a smile, Empress Mother, your son and minister have returned safely, you should be happy, Empress Mother, don't be sad anymore.

The queen mother patted Li Qitian on the back, then squeezed his arm: My son has lost weight. Lost so much!

Li Qitian said with a smile: It's rare for me to save my life, mother, don't cry.

Yes, Empress Dowager. The Empress came forward with a smile, Your Majesty and the two virtuous brothers have worked hard, so let's sit down and say goodbye.

Hearing the queen's address to Ji Zeyu and Pang Xiao, Li Qitian immediately felt that they were really connected. Looking at the queen's belly, which was bigger than he thought, he nodded in satisfaction and said, What Zitong said is that the night is cold and the sky is cold. Well, if the mother catches a cold, it will be fine. Let's go in and talk about it.

The Empress Dowager had no choice but to nod her head, and with Li Qitian's support, she walked into the palace door sobbing all the way.

Qin Yining and Pang Xiao walked side by side at the end, and the night wind blew away the strong smell of blood a lot, but Qin Yining's senses were keen, and what she saw along the way, with the strong smell of blood, still made her feel blocked. Panic.

Pang Xiao hugged her shoulders, and said in a distressed low voice: Are you uncomfortable? I'll ask someone to find a room later, and let Bingtang and Jiyun take care of you to rest. With your current body, how can you suffer after staying up all night? live.

Qin Yining was indeed a little tired, looked at the sky and said, It doesn't matter. I still want to be by your side, to be safer.

Pang Xiao agreed, You're right. The palace isn't completely safe. If you insist on it, we can rest assured after we've settled it.

Qin Yining smiled and nodded.

Just when Li Qitian and others were discussing the recent situation in Beijing and China with the Queen Mother and Queen, King Lijun and Marquis Qingyang were checking the situation in Prince Zhongshun's mansion.

The fire had just been extinguished, and the scorched and ruined walls were emitting green smoke, and the original outlines could still be vaguely seen in some places.

One after another charred black corpses were placed on the ground, many of which had been burned and shriveled, only to be seen as human beings.

In front of King Li and Marquis Qingyang, there was a body of a man with a scorched black body and a fairly complete facial outline. Seeing that half of Li Qitian's familiar face was scorched, and he was lying on the ground so straight, King Li almost Just laughed out loud.

Li Qitian is dead! All these people in Pang Xiao's mansion were buried with him, what a joy!

In this way, it is justifiable for him to ascend the throne! He was originally Li Qitian's cousin, and when he was in crisis, he was entrusted by the empress dowager to oversee the country. The emperor was on the move, so who could say no to him inheriting the throne? What's more, the current situation in the court is tense. I believe that his ascension to the throne will give the courtiers a backbone, and no one is unwilling.

When the time comes to arrange the Huben Army to rescue Tianmen Pass and drive the Tatars out of Dazhou, his position will be even more stable!

Thinking of this, Li Junwang pursed his lips, gritted his teeth, and forced the people around him with a sad look: Deal with these corpses, and carry this sentence out, let's go back to see the Queen Mother.

yes.

The cronies under him moved swiftly, and ignored the rest of the corpses, and temporarily ignored those who were burnt and couldn't be distinguished. They found a wooden plank and only carried out the corpse of Li Qitian.

The sky was gloomy, King Lijun and Marquis Qingyang walked silently in the scorched palace, both in high spirits.

Unexpectedly, when they came to the gate, King Li and Marquis Qingyang saw many ministers' sedan chairs and carriages heading towards the palace.

The location of the palace is surrounded by many neighbors who are officials in the court.

Looking at the sky, it was almost morning time.

But as a supervisor, why didn't he remember asking to go to court today?

The Marquis of Qingyang asked suspiciously: Did the county king arrange an early court today? Didn't it mean that something happened to the Holy Majesty, and the courtiers suffered a lot of damage, so let's stop the court for repair?

King Li Jun was also very puzzled, This king indeed arranged for repairs.

Strange, I'll ask.

Marquis Qingyang raised his legs and was about to catch up with a carriage in front of him, but was pulled back by King Li.

You can't ask like that. Lijun Wang winked at the person behind him, and the entourage behind him immediately went to ask knowingly.

King Lijun then said: This king is entrusted with the order of Yi to supervise the country, so don't you know about the affairs of the court? If you ask like this, don't you tell others that this king doesn't know anything?

Only now did Qingyang Hou come to his senses, and smiled awkwardly, I was also impatient for a while.

King Li Jun rolled his eyes and didn't say much.

Not long after, the entourage came back quickly and said in a low voice: Your Majesty, it is said that all the adults have obeyed your orders. Today the court will continue as usual.

This king is here, and whose orders did they listen to? Li Junwang narrowed his eyes, could it be that old temptress? Unexpectedly, the queen mother who coaxed a girl in front of him would have such a means?

PS: The mother is still sick and hospitalized + the stupid author has a cold, tonsils, lymph and eyelids are inflamed again, and he has nothing to love. The update was not effective a few days ago, sorry everyone!
