Chapter 158 Lin Zhaoyue, are you satisfied?
There was a crisp sound of "pop".
A burning pain came from the cheek, and the pain quickly spread from the cheek to the ear, and half of the face was hot and swollen.
Five clear finger marks immediately appeared on the queen's still charming face.
There was a buzzing sound in her ears and the queen's mind went blank for a moment.
At this moment, the entire time and space seemed to freeze.
Yu Mo, who was following behind, quickly lowered his head and dared not look again.
After being in the palace for so long, this is the first time that someone dares to slap the Queen.
The queen covered her face, humiliation and anger surged in her heart. She raised her head and glared at the man in black in front of her:
"You think you are worthy enough to hit me?"
"This is a reward from the young master to the queen."
Ah.
The queen sneered, stretched out her hand and slapped the man in the face without hesitation.
"You are just a dog by the young master's side. This slap is a reward from me."
The queen used great force and hit the man's face crooked.
The man in black received the slap and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, but he had no complaints.
He just lowered his head and said:
"The young master said that since Xiao Yan is now the deposed crown prince, Your Majesty doesn't need to worry about him. The young master will kill him on his way to the East. Your Majesty should proceed according to the original plan and find a way to get Duke Lin away."
"I understand, get out of here."
As the queen finished her words, she felt a slight breeze. When she raised her eyes again, the man in black was no longer there.
After everyone left, Yumo looked at the queen worriedly.
No one knew how much strength that person had used, but the Queen's face was already swollen.
"Madam, your face?"
The queen touched her face and it hurt.
He clenched his fist and said to Yu Mo:
"The emperor will be here soon. Go to the Imperial Hospital and get me some ointment to reduce the swelling. Also, bring me some ice."
"Yes, ma'am."
Yu Mo was efficient and soon came over with ointment and ice.
The queen first applied ice to her face to reduce the swelling, then applied some ointment. When she heard that the emperor and Xiao Yan were coming to Kunning Palace, she applied a thin layer of powder to cover up the finger marks on her face.
On the way to Kunning Palace, Xiao Yan looked at Xiao Zhang beside him and said:
"Father, I don't often live in the palace. Is mother okay?"
Xiao Zhang raised his eyebrows, looked at his son beside him, and said:
"Is your mother okay? You'll know for yourself later."
Xiao Yan pursed his lips slightly and said:
"Mother, has there been anything unusual recently?"
Xiao Zhang slowly tasted the flavor, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes:
"Is there something wrong with your mother?"
Xiao Yan's eyes moved slightly and he shook his head:
"Your Majesty, please do not worry. I just felt that your Majesty and your mother have a deep relationship during this period, so I just asked casually."
"Is there really nothing wrong?"
"No."
Seeing that his expression did not seem to be concealing or lying, Xiao Zhang smiled and said:
"Why? Are you unhappy that the emperor and your mother are on good terms? Didn't you always tell me not to neglect your mother?"
Xiao Yan knew from a young age that among all the children, Xiao Zhang favored him the most, and would never refuse almost all of his requests as long as he could do it.
The only thing he never agreed to was regarding his mother.
With deep eyes shining with light, Xiao Yan said:
"I am naturally happy..."
……
The two soon arrived at Kunning Palace.
The queen came forward, her eyes red, obviously she had just cried.
"Your Majesty, Yan'er, you are here."
The Queen noticed that Xiao Yan's eyes were on her and asked in confusion:
"What's wrong, Yan'er?"
Xiao Yan looked at her calmly and said:
"Did your Majesty cry just now? Did your Majesty feel sad because of your son's self-willed behavior?"
When the Queen heard what Xiao Yan said, her eyes became even redder:
"You are such a rebellious son. You didn't even discuss such a big matter with your mother. Do you know how worried she is?"
Xiao Yan admitted his mistake obediently, and there was nothing unusual about it as usual:
"It's my fault. I made my mother worried."
Xiao Zhang spoke for Xiao Yan:
"Ying'er has grown up and has his own ideas."
Upon hearing this, the Queen snorted in dissatisfaction:
"No matter how old he is, he is still my son."
As he spoke, his eyes were filled with worry:
"I heard that you not only asked to resign from the position of Crown Prince, but also asked to go to the East Territory. The East Territory is not like the capital. Moreover, your injuries have not yet healed. How can you go to such a place?"
As she spoke, she looked at the emperor with complaints in her eyes:
"Your Majesty, how could you agree to let Wei'er go to the East Territory?"
"Although the Eastern Territory is tough, it is also a place of training. I know that the Queen is worried about Yin'er, but I haven't forgotten what the Queen told me last night. I have already appointed Duke Lin to go with me. With Duke Lin here, Yin'er will definitely be safe."
So when the emperor suddenly pointed out in the court just now that Duke Lin should go together, it was actually the queen mother's idea?
Xiao Yun rubbed the jade ring with a little force, and all the emotions surging in his eyes were hidden in his dark eyes. He said:
"I know that my mother cares about me, but this is my choice and the best solution at the moment. Although the East is dangerous, I am not afraid. Only by going to the East can I better hone myself, just like what my mother taught me when I was a child:
"As the crown prince of a country, you hold a high position and great power. You should establish your mind for the world and the people, eliminate the treacherous and corrupt, and consolidate the country!" Although I am no longer the crown prince, I am still the prince of the country."
Xiao Yan's words made the Queen stunned for a moment, and then she showed a look of both relief and distress:
"Forget it, since you have made up your mind, I will not stop you. But you must be careful when you go there and protect the East Territory. If anything happens, send a message back to the palace in time. You must take good care of yourself and return safely, understand?"
As she spoke, the queen burst into tears.
Since the Emperor has already appointed Duke Lin to go to the Eastern Territory, her mission is accomplished.
She invited the two of them to have lunch in Kunning Palace, and the family of three enjoyed themselves together in such a rare moment.
Xiao Zhang felt a little warm in his heart. He had not thought that this would be the last time they would have such a happy meal together...
……
Lin Zhaoyue was in the bamboo garden until Xiao Yan came back in the middle of the night, drunk.
His face was abnormally flushed, and his usually wise and dark phoenix eyes were now confused, like a child lost in the jungle.
When he got to the room, he didn't wash or take off his clothes. He just kicked off his shoes and climbed into bed.
Lin Zhaoyue frowned at what she saw.
Whether in the past life or this life, this was the first time she saw Xiao Yan so drunk.
"Xiao Yan, go take a shower."
Maybe he heard it, maybe he didn't, but he just came over and hugged her stubbornly.
The smell of ambergris mixed with alcohol, a trace of annoyance flashed in Lin Zhaoyue's eyes, and she wanted to push him away with disdain, but she heard him say:
"Lin Zhaoyue, I was deposed as the Crown Prince today. Are you satisfied?"
