In the middle of summer, the sun is shining.

Outside the city gate, on the step, Emperor Qingjian and Empress Gongsun sat down with each other's arms, and under the scorching sun, together with the hundred officials behind him, their faces were sweaty.

Many people can't help but sarcastically say in their hearts, this is just a queen mother who has no real power, to put it bluntly, she is just a woman hiding in the deep palace, and Emperor Qingjian treats her so kindly.

It seems that since Emperor Qingjian succeeded to the throne, he has taken special care of the sister-in-law left by the first emperor.

It is said that the emperor and the first emperor married the princesses of the two countries at the same time, and it was originally set that the emperor would marry Princess Wenlan, but one day the first emperor met Princess Wenlan and fell in love with her at first sight, and there was a story of the two exchanging brides.

It is rumored that not only did the first emperor fall in love with Princess Wenlan at first sight, but the emperor also fell in love with her at first sight. But Huang Quan is better than the sky, at that time the first emperor was the monarch, even if the emperor fell in love with her at first sight, it was impossible to snatch him.

But even if the first emperor married Princess Wenlan, and the emperor, who was still a prince at the time, married Princess Gongsun, he still loved Princess Wenlan in his heart.

Therefore, after the death of the first emperor, the emperor also took special care of the mother and son of the queen mother.

About half an hour later, not far away, a carriage got closer and closer, and finally arrived outside the city gate, as soon as it stopped, Emperor Qingjian walked from the step, got down and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

"Greetings to the Queen Mother." Emperor Qingjian respectfully saluted the people in the carriage

When the hundred officials behind him saw the emperor make this move, they all immediately knelt on the ground, "Weichen sees the Queen Mother and welcomes the Queen Mother Sheng'an." ”

The voice was extremely high-pitched, and even Shangguan Yue in the restaurant in the city could hear it clearly.

The people in the carriage were treated like this, which was also expected by Shangguan Yue, after all, she was the Queen Mother Wenlan?

Shangguan Yue looked from afar, and saw the man in white next to the carriage jumping off the carriage, and that was Nangong Mo, the king of Jin.

Outside the city gate, Nangong Mo dismounted and saluted Emperor Qingjian respectfully, and then slowly walked to the carriage to open the curtain, and inside the curtain, the queen mother slowly walked out with the support of the palace maid.

Dressed in a blue plain clothes, her long hair is coiled up, covered with a green hat, her forty-year-old face is very well maintained, without a little powder, but it is still difficult to hide her demeanor, and the original plain clothes also make her appear more indifferent to fame and fortune, and she has no quarrel with the world.

"The emperor doesn't have to be polite, the sun is so big today, and you have personally brought so many people, I'm afraid it will be a pain in mourning." Wen Empress Dowager got out of the carriage and raised her hand to the emperor, very gentle and polite, as if she was already a monk.

When Emperor Qingjian saw the Queen Mother, he was suddenly stunned, and for a moment, Empress Gongsun stepped forward calmly, with a smile on her face, "The imperial sister-in-law went to Qishan to recuperate this time, and she has been going for several years, and she has never come back in the middle." This really made the palace and the emperor a little worried, as soon as I heard that the imperial sister-in-law was going back to the palace, the palace and the saint couldn't wait at the city gate. Chang'an Palace is taken care of by palace people every day, and everything is ready, just waiting for the imperial sister-in-law to return to the palace. ”

Empress Dowager Wen glanced at Empress Gongsun, still calm and unwavering, very breezy and light, "I am a half-monk, and I shouldn't have come back, but this time I came from Xichang, I didn't return, it was still not good after all, so after thinking about it, I asked the emperor for a decree." ”

"Xichang is the maiden home of the imperial sister-in-law, and the imperial sister-in-law should of course stay in the palace." Emperor Qingjian was still respectful, glanced at Nangong Mo, and said busily, "Mo'er, the sun is big, help your queen mother to get into the carriage, we will return to the palace later, it is not too late, I ordered the imperial dining room earlier to make some food, in order to catch the wind and wash the dust for the imperial sister-in-law." ”

"Yes." Nangong Mo received the order, supported the Empress Dowager Wen, and was about to get into the carriage, when there was a whoosh in the air, a sharp sword pierced the air and shot straight at it, and the target of the arrow ......

Everyone looked at the person who was aiming at the arrow, and they couldn't help but be stunned.

"Escort!" Emperor Qing Jian reacted immediately and roared.

The arrow was not aimed at the high emperor, but the queen mother Wenlan!

Seeing that the arrow was about to pierce the head of the Empress Dowager Wen, Nangong Mo, the King of Jin on the side, flashed at a critical juncture, and protected the Empress Dowager into his arms.

"Hmm......" Nangong Mo let out a low muffled snort, his figure was stunned, and the arrow that originally assassinated the Queen Mother did not enter Nangong Mo's back without any deviation.

"Mo'er ......" Empress Dowager Wen's face changed instantly, looking at Nangong Mo's painful face, and the white clothes that had been soaked in blood behind her, the calm face finally fluctuated, "Hurry, come on." ”

Just now, in order to save the Queen Mother, King Nangong Mo of Jin, blocked the sword with his body, which happened in an instant, even Emperor Qingjian did not expect it, all of them were stunned for a moment, and at this moment, hearing the Queen Mother's cry for help, everyone woke up instantly.

Emperor Qingjian immediately ran forward, personally took Nangong Mo, the king of Jin, from the hands of the Empress Dowager Wen, put Nangong Mo on his chariot, and commanded sharply, "Take care of the Empress Dowager and get into the carriage, immediately strengthen your guards, and return to the palace immediately. How dare I assassinate the Queen Mother under my nose! ”

Who exactly wants to assassinate the Queen Mother?

In everyone's heart, this question is inevitably asked.

Shangguan Yue, who was in the restaurant not far away, couldn't help frowning when she saw this scene.

Looking at the place where the arrow had just been fired, there were no signs there.

She didn't expect that such a thing would happen when she came here today to greet the queen mother.

Assassination?

Before the Empress Dowager Wen entered Tianyin's Mansion, someone came to assassinate her, who was it? Why can't you wait to put the Queen Mother to death?

It seems that someone doesn't want the Queen Mother to come back?

Shangguan Yue raised her eyebrows, feeling more and more that this matter was too interesting.

With the accident just now, the group that originally greeted the Queen Mother did not dare to linger here for the slightest, and everyone entered the city gate with great momentum, and around the street, the guards almost surrounded the entire street without any gaps.

The team passed in front of the restaurant, and Shangguan Yue looked at the man with his eyes closed, and there was a light in his eyes that others couldn't see.

Do you want to block arrows?

Shangguan Yue's mind came to mind with the pink scar on the man's back......

In her previous life, she was like a young daughter who was just beginning to fall in love, thinking only about the man she loved.

I still remember in my previous life, in the boudoir, she once asked where the scar came from, he just laughed and said nothing, asked him a few times, he didn't say, she didn't ask.
