Chapter 372: Stepmother
There was such a big movement in the imperial capital, although there were notices to appease the people, but the people were still panicked by such a big battle, especially some officials who served in the imperial capital, they vaguely guessed something, and they were even more worried about their own danger.

Inside the palace, it is much quieter than outside, Yang Xing accompanied by Yuan Fang and others to the Yong'an Palace where the queen is located, after a report, but there is no reply inside, out of 'politeness', Yang Xing did not break in, just waited outside, and the female soldiers who arrived later surrounded the Yong'an Palace, prohibiting all personnel from entering and leaving.
After a long time, there was finally a response in the Yong'an Palace, and a eunuch came out and said in a shrill voice: "Third Highness, the queen has summoned you." Yang Xing walked inside with an expressionless face, and Yuan Fang and the others naturally followed.
The eunuch stretched out his hand to stop the others other than Yang Xing and Xiaomei, and said in a very embarrassed tone: "Ladies and gentlemen, the queen only summons Her Royal Highness, and please wait outside." ”
Yang Xing stopped and looked back, hesitated and said to Yuan Fang: "Old, uh, Doctor Yuan will come in with me, and the others will wait outside." Yuan Fang gave Chang Xun and the others a look, beckoned to take Sang Rou and Jieyue and the girls, and followed Yang Xing into the Yong'an Palace.
Seeing this, the eunuch who passed the message wanted to stop Yuan Fang from bringing the guards in, but he hesitated for a moment and still didn't say anything, after all, these guards were all female soldiers, and he didn't have any good reason to stop them. In the Yong'an Palace, the queen was in the main position, looking at Yang Xing and the others who were striding in stride with calm eyes, but she never spoke, and she couldn't see any emotional fluctuations from her expression.
Walking into the main hall, Yuan Fang looked around the hall, in addition to the queen who was dressed luxuriously and dignified, there were two palace maids and two eunuchs guarding the door, and there was no one else, Yuan Fang whispered to Sang Rou and the women: "You stay at the door." Sang Rou nodded, and the eight women dragged the two eunuchs at the door out of the Yong'an Palace, standing on both sides.
Yang Xing stood straight, looked at the queen for a long time, bowed and said, "I've seen the queen's aunt." ”
To tell the truth, Yang Xing really doesn't want to meet with this stepmother, I don't know how, although the two haven't met, but Yang Xing just doesn't have a good impression of this stepmother, this has nothing to do with the power struggle, it is purely psychologically unacceptable, or a kind of inferiority, although everyone deliberately avoids this topic, but Yang Xing is very clear about his identity, in fact, he is an illegitimate child, in other words, it is a wild seed that is not good, and the queen, that is the wife, from a certain point of view, people are the bitter masters, Therefore, Yang Xing felt a little weak the moment he saw the queen.
Xiaomei glanced at Yang Xing with disgust, and saluted obediently and said, "I've seen Her Royal Highness the Queen." ”
The queen glanced at Xiaomei, and said in a flat tone: "You are Xiaomei?" ”
Xiaomei smiled and said, "Yes, Her Royal Highness." ”
The queen didn't pay any attention to Xiaomei, nor did she look at Yuan Fang, and turned her head to look at Yang Xing: "You brought so many people over, are you here to demonstrate to the palace?" Although you are not born to this palace, you should not forget that this palace is still your elder, is this how you treat your elders? ”
Yang Xing took a deep breath: "I want to know, where is my mother now?" Yuan Fang was stunned for a moment, this was not the line that had been discussed before, and then looked at the queen to see how she reacted.
The queen seemed to know that Yang Xing would ask this question, and muttered, "Your mother? Hongu is also looking for it, and it has been looking for more than ten years. ”
Yang Xing's eyes narrowed slightly: "I don't know why the queen's mother is also looking for my mother?" The queen waved her hand, and the two palace maids beside her saluted and withdrew from the Yong'an Palace. Yuan Fang felt that it was better to avoid some things, so he bowed slightly and walked to the door.
Seeing this, Yang Xing said loudly: "Boss, you stay." Yuan Fang looked back at Yang Xing in shock, he didn't expect him to call himself the boss on such an occasion, which was a big loss of royal face.
When the queen heard Yang Xing's address to Yuan Fang, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her beautiful eyes glanced at Yuan Fang, with a bit of murderous intent and a bit of resentment in her eyes.
Yuan Fang hesitated for a moment, and said to Sang Rou and the other women outside the door: "Close the door, no one is allowed to approach." Sang Rou saluted, carefully closed the door, and motioned for the nearby female soldiers to disperse and keep a certain distance from the Yong'an Palace, although even if they stood outside, they could not hear the conversation inside, but they had to do so to show their attitude to avoid suspicion.
In the empty hall, there were only four people, Yang Xing, Xiaomei, Yuan Fang and the queen, at least on the surface, there were only four of them, the four of them were silent for a while, and after a long time, the queen said, "Are you going to do it?" Do you really think you're ready? ”
Yang Xing frowned: "I want to know my mother's whereabouts." ”
The queen sneered and said, "Are you so breathless? ”
The queen's lukewarm and non-ominous words made Yang Xing upset for a while, and Yuan Fang also felt a little depressed, and gently pulled Yang Xing, who was almost about to have a seizure, shook his head slightly and said, "Calm down." Xiaomei also felt that something was wrong with Yang Xing's state, and hurriedly grabbed his arm and looked at Yang Xing worriedly.
Yang Xing took a deep breath, felt better, looked directly at the queen and asked, "Where is my mother?" ”
The queen smiled faintly and asked instead of answering: "Do you really want to see her so much?" She abandoned your brother and sister back then, don't you hate her? ”
Yang Xing said angrily: "This is my business. Yuan Fang was stunned when he heard this, sister and brother? Could it be that Yang Xing still has a sister?
The queen shook her head and said, "I don't know where your mother is, otherwise." ”
Yang Xing said coldly: "Otherwise, what? ”
The smile on the queen's face disappeared, replaced by a face full of anger: "Is this how you talk to your elders?" Do you still have the respect and humility of the young and the old in your eyes? ”
Yang Xing was taken aback by the suddenly mad queen, and involuntarily took a step back, Yuan Fang sighed secretly, Yang Xing is still too young after all, and has too little experience, especially the time to become a prince is too short, and he has seen too few big people, and he can't compare with the queen who has been on the throne for a long time, Yang Xing can't bear it as soon as he shows a little momentum, this is a loser and a loser, if you don't want to save it, the next conversation Yang Xing will always be suppressed, which is definitely not a good thing.
Yuan Fang was also a little intimidated by the queen's momentum, without his previous arrogance, and asked softly: "May I ask Your Royal Highness, just now you said that Yang Xing has a sister?" ”
The queen put away the anger on her face, regained her calm and calm appearance before, and said lightly: "Yes, and she is in the palace." Yang Xing looked at the queen in astonishment, this matter had a big impact on him.
