Your Highness insists that I marry him

"Tell me about your sister."

The queen was wearing a black dress, sitting in front of the window, her whole figure was like a shadow that was about to dissipate.

Standing behind her, Wei An looked at the empress' thin shoulders with a worried expression.He grew up with the two princesses Ziya and Ziyi since childhood.In this palace, apart from the empress herself, he may have the most memories with Empress Ziya.

But no amount of memory can fill the gaps of these years.

Wei An sighed, "The queen should rest earlier."

"My sister is really gentle, isn't she?" The queen seemed to have never heard of it. "When she is watering the flowers, she will whisper a few words to the flowers. Every time there is such a disaster, she is always the first to worry about the safety of these people."

Wei An had to say, "Yes..."

Empress Ziya is really a very gentle person.

"But such a gentle sister, I'm afraid she won't forgive me."

"Empress Ziya has never been angry with you."

The first emperor was busy with official business.The two princesses have always been inseparable.In fact, Princess Ziyi has been naughty since she was a child, and the one she likes to tease the most is her favorite elder sister.As for the flowers raised by Princess Ziya, she did not know how many times they were burned to death.After that, I have to show it to my sister openly.I just want to watch my sister smile at her helplessly, no longer take care of those boring flowers, but play with her.

"You don't understand..." The blood on the queen's face receded, her lips trembled, and she hoarsely spit out the secret that had been pressed in her heart for more than ten years, "I killed her. It's my fault!"

The secret was like a pale hook, dragging her internal organs, and with a bang, they were all spat out on the ground.The queen almost became a person who couldn't breathe, and she just went on and on, "Xiao Qi's bones are different from ordinary people, and he couldn't detect it with spirit stones in the early years. Everyone was worried that he had no talent."

Wei An's eyes widened, and he also remembered at this moment.In my memory, Empress Ziya was holding Xiao Qi in her swaddling arms, smiling softly, saying that it doesn't matter if she is not talented, and she will definitely keep the child happy and safe for the rest of her life.

Wei An felt pain in his heart, and looked down at the queen again, tears flowed from her eyes as if the threads were broken. "Sister thought it didn't matter at first. It was me who was unwilling to give Xiaoqi the marrow washing pill without authorization."

Xisui Dan is a royal secret medicine.Similar to Jin Sui Dan, it is intended to improve talent.But the effect of the medicine is much faster, and it is unstable, so it has long been abandoned.

"But Xiaoqi is not without talent. On the contrary, he has extraordinary talent. Of course, he is a four-year-old child who can't stand the medicinal power of Xisui Pill. That accident was all my fault, and I killed my sister!"

"But I can't accept the fact that I killed my sister. I have always wanted to believe that it was Xiaoqi's fault. Over the years, I have treated him like a monster and guarded against him. I have deceived everyone in the world. I will wait, as long as He killed me, and I can fool myself into believing that it was really Xiao Qi's fault."

"But no, it's not Xiaoqi's fault. No matter how much I don't want to believe it, I can see it. Xiaoqi is kind and gentle in his bones. Just like a sister. And I have wronged him for so many years for my own sake. I I don't deserve my sister's forgiveness."

"I should be the one who died in that accident. My sister shouldn't have protected me. It shouldn't be my sister who died." The queen buried her face in trembling hands, repeating almost in prayer.

However, history will not be rewritten, and the dead cannot be brought back to life.

Wei An looked at the queen who had been hollowed out in an instant, full of sadness.In fact, this so-called secret, how could he not guess the general idea.It's just that no matter what happened at that time, and how others persuaded them, all those who survived after losing their loved ones would feel that it was their fault.

"Queen Ziya must be really distressed." Wei An closed his eyes in pain, and then said again. "I believe that Empress Ziya is not only saddened by Her Majesty Qi, but also by Your Majesty."

"With Queen Ziya's kindness, how could she have been obsessed with the cause of her death? However, the two family members she cared about the most in this world have been tortured for so many years because of her. This is the most painful thing for her of."

The queen looked up at Wei An.His mouth trembled uncontrollably, but he couldn't speak.

"Empress. I'll go to the Legendary Highness."

The Queen grabbed the chair with white knuckles, and stood there like a piece of paper.I was a little helpless. "I have done so many mistakes, how can I have the face to ask for his forgiveness?"

"Queen..." Wei An said in a deep voice. "Some things, you still have to say it yourself."

The Empress closed her eyes and finally nodded.

Wei An pushed the door and came out.But I saw Siyi.

"your Highness……"

The princess looked at him with a serious expression, and hesitated to speak.

But Wei An could understand, and shook his head lightly, "The Queen's situation is still getting worse."

Before the sadness welled up in the princess' eyes, she lowered her head to hide it.When she lifted it up again, Siyi had recovered her composure.

"What orders does the Queen Mother have?"

"She wants to apologize to His Royal Highness Qi."

When Siyi heard this, her expression became even more complicated.

When a person is about to die, his words are also good.The Empress even had to let go of the prejudice that had supported her for so many years.I am afraid that time is really running out.

The princess took a breath, suppressed too many thoughts, and just ordered, "You ask Mu Yong to come to me. I have something to look for him."

"Yes……"

So when Mu Yong came, he watched Xue Qi enter the queen's bedroom with a serious expression, while he himself was brought in front of the princess.

When entering the door, the princess was bowing her head and talking intimately with the maid named Gui Lan. Seeing him, the two of them stopped to look at him at the same time.

Mu Yong was about to speak, but Gui Lan took the first step, "You still don't want to meet the princess?"

Mu Yong frowned. He hadn't performed a formal kneeling ceremony for a long time, but because of his status, he had no choice but to kneel down. "Meet Your Royal Highness..." Then he raised his head again. "I don't know what orders the Princess has for you?"

The princess sat on a high place, looking down at him, as if it was the day he entered the palace. "Xue Qi has already shown his talents and become famous in one fell swoop. Not surprisingly, he will inherit the throne logically."

Hearing what the princess said, Mu Yong waited quietly for her next words.He has also been puzzled, the princess should logically want to take power by herself, but why does she keep pushing Xue Qi to take over?

"The queen's situation is not optimistic..." The princess paused for a moment before saying, "The next step is that I need to return to the imperial city as soon as possible and marry Xue Qi."

No matter how much Mu Yong wanted to keep his face at this moment, he couldn't control his expression of surprise.

The princess and Xue Qi are not close relatives, this kind of blood relationship is naturally nothing in the eyes of the royal family who only value pure blood.But because the princess's attitude towards Xue Qi has always been too frank, Mu Yong never thought of this level.But once it is broken, it is instantly transparent.Xue Qi didn't care about state affairs at all. If the two were a family, it would be logical for the princess to take over.

"Now if I don't sit in this position, the second place will be Miss Naye." Seeing that Mu Yong's expression was not good, the princess continued, "Only by marrying me can you-"

Although the princess's words were not finished, Mu Yong was disgusted instinctively. He laughed directly and interrupted the princess, "Do you still want me to persuade Xue Qi to marry you? Xue Qi will not agree."

The princess stared at Mu Yong.There was no anger in her eyes, but her voice was deliberately lowered, "Now it's coincident with the animal disaster, and the queen is critically ill. I just need to tell the world, and this will be considered a success. The wedding can be saved. Xiaoqi doesn't pay attention to the outside world at all, I All I need is your cooperation."

Seeing Mu Yong's silence, the princess said again, "Mu Yong, you are just a poor man, you can stay in this palace and spend your whole life rich and well-fed. What else are you not satisfied with?"

At this time, the night outside the window became more and more intense, and it started to rain like splashed ink.There was only the faint light of candles in the room, shimmering brightly under the aura of the princess.

Mu Yong stared into Siyi's eyes, but did not flinch, "What if I disagree."

The princess stood up, looked down at the double swallow rings on Mu Yong's neck, bowed and approached him, and whispered, "I repeat, you can't negotiate terms with me. Even if I fail, I'm still the dragon." Princess of Wu Kingdom, and you—”

Suddenly, there was a flash of lightning outside the window.Let the princess's words stop abruptly.

Immediately, the sound of the alarm was mixed with the rumbling thunder, which was not real, but it made people panic.

"Report! There are ghost dragons!"

Both of them were startled, looked at each other, and immediately put down the conversation.

The princess ran to the window a few steps, opened the window, and the wind and rain came in.

At this moment, Xue Qi stepped back and opened the door. Mu Yong saw him, stood up, and stretched out his hand to him.Xue Qi hurried over.The two clasped their hands, their eyes were on each other, asking how the other was doing.

Xue Qi shook his head.A few words can change the scars of more than ten years.Speaking out, it is more of the queen's heart knot.

Mu Yong lowered his eyes and subconsciously touched the double swallow ring on his neck.It seemed that the conflict between him and the princess could not be resolved.

Siyi looked at the sky from the window for a while, and there were already several lightning bolts.The princess complexion is getting worse and worse. "No, we have to go out and lure it away!"

"Princess..." Gui Lan was the first to speak out in worry.This ghostly dragon has strange spiritual power and is dressed in ominous legends, so it is not like other monsters that will be besieged and suppressed by people. Instead, it makes people frightened and avoid it.

"If you don't care about it, Nanlong City will be destroyed! Besides, Xiao Qi's spiritual power is already controversial, so he must fight this battle." The princess turned around and said, not knowing who she was explaining to.

Mu Yong's eyes turned, he didn't know what to think, and finally grabbed Xue Qi's hand, and followed the princess out of the door.

Except for the gate of the palace, the sound of rain and wind outside was louder, and the people who were blowing could barely open their eyes.Every time there was a flash of lightning, people could still faintly hear howling, but soon they would be overwhelmed by thunder.The whole Nanlong City turned into a purgatory because of a ghost dragon.

The few people didn't dare to delay for a moment, and ran towards the direction of the flying bone vessel.Only when you walk in can you see the shadows of other people.But it was too dark to see clearly.It was the city lord who recognized the princess first and ran over in a hurry.

"Your Highness, Your Highness Qi!"

"His Royal Highness Qi and I will find a way to lure it away." The princess said loudly in the rain, "You lead a few teams to follow us, but don't get too close."

When the city lord heard it, he knelt down directly. "On behalf of the entire Nanlong City, I would like to thank His Royal Highness Qi and His Royal Highness Princess for saving their lives!"

The princess waved her hand, "Get up quickly, the city lord, thank you later."

Mu Yong looked up at the terrifying black shadow in the cloud, wiped the rain off his face, and walked directly towards the flying bone vessel.

As soon as he walked in, he saw a black figure beside Lan Fengniao.Before he could see clearly, the black shadow walked over on his own initiative.

"Your Highness, it's better for me to drive." The man was actually Hua Han.

"No need..." The princess passed him coldly and walked directly into Lan Fengniao.

When Mu Yong walked past him, another bolt of lightning struck from the sky, illuminating Hua Han's face with unknown meaning.

Mu Yong felt his heart beating in vain, but the situation did not allow him to think too much. As soon as he stepped into the bone vessel, the blue phoenix had already spread its wings, and rushed into the night and the rainstorm in an instant.

Sitting in the bone vessel, Mu Yong could only feel the lightning and thunder getting closer.The whole blue phoenix was flying in the torrential rain.

"Xiao Qi..." the princess said suddenly, with a hint of tension in her voice, "What do you think?"

Xue Qi heard the words and opened the window.Against the hula-la-la rain, he leaned his whole body out of the bone vessel, observing the giant dragon in the cloud with a solemn expression.

Xue Qi clearly did not move, but Mu Yong could clearly feel the coercion in the air change in vain. The originally flat space seemed to be suddenly pulled by two invisible giant hands and twisted.

In exchange for this silent confrontation, the ghost dragon roared angrily.It was obviously very angry with Xue Qi who dared to compete with it for control of spiritual power.The dark clouds above the blue phoenix quickly rolled up, getting thicker and thicker.

The princess hurriedly turned around and drove away, "The ghost dragon always walks alone, and I'm afraid it treats you as the same kind. You have to fight it out."

Xue Qi stepped back, looked at Mu Yong, and said softly. "It can't beat me."

"Okay!" The princess felt relieved, "Wait for me to lead it out of Nanlong City."

Although the blue phoenix was bumping like a boat in the waves, its flying speed was not low.Sure enough, the ghostly dragon roared all the way, and followed Xue Qi closely with dark clouds all over the sky.

This ghostly dragon was acting recklessly in the sky, but once it got close to Xue Qi, all the surrounding electrical powers would turn against Xue Qi, and then it was locked and suppressed.The ghostly dragon couldn't cast spells, and was so angry that it showed its figure, and directly grabbed the blue phoenix with its huge black sharp claws.

Lan Fengniao couldn't dodge in time, and was slapped with a palm.Mu Yong only felt a violent jolt, and his whole body lost weight instantly.Xue Qi grabbed him at once, and he was not thrown out at all.But the blue phoenix was obviously caught, and the rain and wind no longer hit his face uncontrollably.The inside of the entire bone vessel was immediately cold and slippery.

The princess seemed to curse, and readjusted the blue phoenix, and continued to rush out of the city without stopping.

But the ghost dragon found a way, and immediately repeated the same trick.This claw was even more ruthless, and directly knocked the blue phoenix down by more than one meter, and Mu Yong was almost thrown out by the bump.The entire blue phoenix bird also became windy and embarrassed.

Even Xue Qi was a little annoyed, he leaned out again, wanting to give the dragon some flair, but the ghostly dragon slapped it one after another, and the whole bone vessel was flipped out.Mu Yong felt his world spinning, he stretched out his hand to grab something, but there was only greasy rainwater in his hand.Just a moment of negligence, Mu Yong slammed into the door of the bone vessel.

Mu Yong was hit hard at first, and then his back was empty.At this moment, the door that should have been strong was thrown out directly following Mu Yong's force.The cold fear ran down his spine and rushed straight to his forehead. Mu Yong grabbed the edge of the door desperately, but this could only be delayed for a moment.

In the next second, Mu Yong was thrown out of the tumbling blue phoenix with his whole body in the air.

"Mu!" Xue Qi rushed towards him immediately.

The feeling of weightlessness was relieved for a moment by the strength on his wrist, and when he looked up, he saw Xue Qi grabbing his hand without hesitation, but he was barely hanging on the edge of the door.As soon as he lowered his head, there was a large piece of dark air under his feet.What can be vaguely seen is only the city gate that just flew past under the sky.

The princess was also very collapsed, and she had to land very quickly. "Hold on!"

However, the rain was raging, and even Xue Qi couldn't grasp the edge of the door.Taking advantage of Xue Qi's panic, the ghostly dragon regained control of the electric power, and then struck down a ball of lightning towards the two people hanging outside the bone vessels.

Seeing that the dragon dared to hurt Mu Yong, Xue Qi let go of his hand angrily, and held Mu Yong in his arms.

Mu Yong was shocked. "what are you doing!"

Hearing the dragon's scream, the ball of lightning was directly hit back by Xue Qi with a wave of his hand, but the two of them also fell straight down.
