Qingyun Weiyang

The Empress Dowager was assassinated in Qingyun Tower, and soon spread throughout Jidu and the imperial palace. On that day, the four major city gates were sealed off, and the whole city searched for the assassin from house to house. No one was allowed to enter or leave. Tiansi is fast.

The whole city of Jidu was in a state of panic. Such a thing would happen at the opening of Qingyun Building. Many people present saw the rampant assassins with their own eyes.Originally, Qingyun Tower should be held accountable, but the Hurricane Guards were able to protect them, and Nalanqing's influence did not affect Qingyun Tower.

As soon as Yun Jin returned to the palace, she saw Qin Yu anxiously waiting in Yunqi Palace.

"Mother, are you alright?" He was relieved when he saw Yun Jin returned safely.

"The queen mother is fine, she is escorted by Mrs. Lang, but I didn't expect this to spread so quickly." Yun Jin was worried. On the way back, she was always worried about Lan Qing, hoping that she would catch up suddenly and return safely, but she was never there. news.

"This time I'm going to award meritorious deeds. The queen mother must pay attention to precautions when she leaves the palace. This matter must be thoroughly investigated. I want to see who has the guts to assassinate the queen mother." The calmness in the room has gradually revealed the king's ambition.

"Then leave this matter to Huang'er and Li Ruo. The Ai family will not bother you anymore. If you have any doubts or difficulties in making a decision, you can come and ask the Ai family." Yun Jin felt that it was time to let Qin Yu handle it personally Some things, he is already nine years old, he should no longer be in control of everything.

The former empress was in charge at the age of 12, and she hoped that her son would not be inferior to the former empress, take over the heavy responsibilities of the country as soon as possible, so that she could step down as soon as possible.

Retiring... Yun Jin thought about this for the first time, never thought before that the emperor will grow up, and he will also age slowly, and one day he will really retire from court and grow old alone.

"You back off." Yun Jin looked very tired, and didn't want to say much. She rested her forehead and kept looking at the door.

"Yes." Qin Yu was eager to find out the matter, so he didn't delay. He felt that Yun Jin was in a bad mood, so he didn't ask further.

Yun Jin was restless, and walked to the front garden of Yunqi Palace, which was the closest place to the palace gate. If someone came to report the situation, or Lan Qing came back, he could see him immediately.

It takes Lan Qing such a long time to chase an assassin, if he is not entangled with the assassin or is injured, it is impossible to get lost in Jidu.

"Queen Mother, don't worry, Master Lang will be fine." It was the first time Yuan Xi saw Yun Jin so worried, and he was secretly happy for Na Lanqing.

Yun Jin remained silent, besides worrying about Lan Qing, she was also worried about another thing.During the palace exam, there was a martial arts test, and the Zhongling officer had to understand martial arts so that he could protect her when necessary, but he had never heard of anyone with great kung fu in the martial arts test.She knew that Lan Qing was good at martial arts, but she never knew that her martial arts were so high, and it was very strange, when she was able to save the emperor in the test of loyalty, why did she become alone in the end to block arrows?

"Yuanxi, do you think Mr. Lang is good at martial arts?"

"This..." Yuan Xi was evasive, fortunately Yun Jin didn't look up at her, otherwise she would have seen that she was a little flustered at the moment, but Yuan Xi reacted quickly, "I can't tell the level of martial arts, I just think People of martial arts are all powerful, but Mr. Lang is not a creature in the pond, so it is not surprising that his martial arts are higher than others."

"Really..." Yun Jin felt that her martial arts were not only superior to ordinary people, she was calm and composed, and her reactions were jaw-dropping, especially when resisting cold arrows, she was as fast as a gust of wind, almost like lightning.

If she hadn't reacted so promptly, Yun Jin might have been in danger, but the arrows on the hunting ground that day were all ordinary arrows, which couldn't be faster than a crossbow.Although Yun Jin doesn't know martial arts, her husband Xianwang loves riding and archery. There used to be various crossbows and bows in Xianwang's mansion, so she somewhat knows the principles of archery.

The more worried, the deeper the doubts in his heart, Yun Jin recalled the look in Li Ruo's eyes that day, seeming suspicious, so he summoned Li Ruo to come to question.

Although Li Ruo is in the deep palace, he knows the affairs of Jianghu, so he also knows many legends.

"Li Ruo, the Ai family asks you, do you know how many women with outstanding martial arts are there in the world today?" Yun Jin believes that at Lan Qing's age, a person with strategy and talent, and also possesses profound and unpredictable martial arts, should be It is rare and rare, dragons and phoenixes are rare among people, let alone women.

"Back to the Empress Dowager, there are many strange people in the world, but as far as I know, there are indeed many women with outstanding martial arts you mentioned, but... there are not many women at the age of Master Lang." Li Ruo seems to know what the Empress Dowager wants what.

"Li Ruo really knows Ai's family, but why do you have any doubts about Mr. Lan?"

Li Ruo hesitated for a moment, and decided to tell the truth, "To tell you the truth, the Queen Mother, martial arts practitioners have a keen sense of breath, and a person with profound inner strength is naturally different from ordinary people. That day, the minister saw that Mr. Lan's inner breath is calm and his aura is strong. That's why I wanted to compete with her, and find out which school her martial arts come from?"

"Well, maybe she has learned from a master, but she is just relatively low-key."

"It's also reasonable. I just want to ensure the safety of the Queen Mother, but Mr. Lan has made great contributions to saving her many times. He must be loyal to the Queen Mother."

Yun Jin felt relieved when she heard this, she hoped that she was worrying too much about everything, even if Lan Qing had high martial arts skills, there was nothing wrong with it, and she never asked what school she was from?Suspecting her like this makes him feel ashamed to sacrifice his life to save her every time.

"However, Empress Dowager..." Li Ruo hesitated to speak.

"Sir Li has nothing to say, it doesn't matter." Yun Jin felt that Li Ruo still had some doubts, she didn't understand the vigilance of martial arts practitioners, but it didn't hurt to listen.

"Fang Caichen said that it is rare for a woman of Mrs. Lan's age to have a high degree of martial arts attainment. It is only possible to have such profound internal strength if she starts practicing basic skills from an early age."

"so what?"

"As far as I know, there are only three people in the world who can achieve this level of martial arts. One is your own sister, Miss Liu, the other is Ling Yu, the former princess of Yu Kingdom, and the third is the world-renowned Patriarch Nalan. Or the minister is ignorant, and there are also closed disciples from other sects, it is also possible."

Yun Jin's heart tightened, especially when she heard the name Nalan Qing, she remembered how many times she almost couldn't tell the difference between Lan Qing and Na Lanqing, and she always felt that the two were very similar.

Lanqing...Nalanqing...the names are so similar.

Yun Jin walked into the garden and plucked the flower branches lightly, but she was accidentally pricked by a flower thorn. She clasped her fingertips tightly, her brows furrowed deeper, and she felt that there was a cloud of mist in front of her eyes, blinding her eyes.

Yuan Xi was dripping with cold sweat, and the Queen Mother finally began to suspect that Mr. Li was well-informed after all, and these words must have caused many doubts in her heart.

How can she dispel the Queen Mother's suspicion for Nalan Qing?Her task is to protect her identity, but the queen mother is wise and wise, it is too difficult to prevaricate.

"Li Ruo, is there a disguise technique or a voice-changing technique in the world?" Yun Jin suddenly thought that the reason why she often confuses those two people is because of their similar temperaments and personalities. The sound is different.

Yun Jin didn't dare to speculate on a certain possibility, and it would be scary to think about it deeply, but she didn't like this kind of hazy feeling, she liked everything to be clearly visible, so that she could control the overall situation.

"Back to the Empress Dowager, it is not uncommon for masters of disguise art to change their faces a hundred times a day without being noticed, but to change their voice, they need a strong inner strength to control their voice with qi. Of course, there are masters of disguise art who understand Control the sound, but such masters are few and far between."

"That is to say, in fact, both disguise and voice change are not difficult, especially for a martial arts master?"

"Exactly."

Yun Jin's heart trembled slightly, she waved her hand, "Go down first, don't tell anyone about this."

"Yes, I retire."

After Li Ruo left, Yun Jin frowned even deeper.The scene when I saw Lan Qing for the first time began to flash in my mind. It was suspicious at first, but her ability to smooth things over was too strong, and all doubts were perfectly avoided.Now that I think about it, it is her outstanding talent and transcendent wisdom that make her feel like a fish in water, able to handle all the temptations and even dangers she encounters with ease.

When Nalan Qing appeared, Lan Qing made an excuse not to leave the palace, and after Lan Qing left the palace, Nalan Qing was not there... Is there really such a coincidence in the world?Lanqing....Nalanqing...all the recent correspondence with Nalanqing was conveyed by Lanqing.She was the one who went to the Nalan Chamber of Commerce during the locust plague, and she was the one who easily checked the disaster money and avoided prison.

The more Yun Jin thought about it, the more panicked she became. She didn't know why she was panicking?She was even a little scared, but what was she afraid of?Lan Qing's loyalty and gaze, and Nalan Qing's meaningful smile are always lingering in her mind.

"What I want, only the Empress Dowager can give." These words still ring in my ears, as if I have fallen into a "trap", or a lie of identity.

She didn't even dare to say this skeptical conclusion in her heart, Lan Qing might be Nalan Qing.

There is no such person as Lan Qing in the world, only Patriarch Nalan who used to be aloof, the one who stands by his side and solves his problems has always been Nalan Qing.

Thinking of this, Yun Jin felt like a ball of fire was running around, she couldn't tell whether it was nervous or something.It was too complicated, and the fog was gradually being cleared away, but she was a little afraid. She was afraid that the truth behind the fog was something she couldn't bear.

For a whole afternoon, Yun Jin was immersed in such daydreams and doubts, but she never took the next step and tried.She didn't want to test Lan Qing in the same way again, if she could, she wanted to discover the truth by herself and reveal her suspicions by herself.

However, the long wait gradually calmed down her doubts, and her worry overwhelmed her doubts. Compared with the issue of her identity, Yun Jin was more worried about her safety.

"Yuanxi, what time is it?" Yun Jin felt that half a day had passed like half a month. It had never been so long before reading memorials and thinking about national affairs, and now this feeling has never been felt before.

"Back to the Queen Mother, it's nearly ten hours." Yuan Xi waved, Huairou served all the prepared dinner, Yun Jin stood at the door all the time, waiting for Lan Qing to return.

"Empress Dowager, you can eat first, if there is any news, it will come from the palace gate immediately."

"Yes, Master Lang is omnipotent. She must have beaten the assassins to pieces. She must have been interrogating and investigating. This has delayed time. Maybe she will come back after you have eaten."

"The Ai family can't eat, let's go away." Yun Jin's food was tasteless, and she was already in a complicated mood, and Nalan Qing hadn't returned yet, how could she eat anything.

"Queen~~" Huairou still wanted to fight, but seeing Yuanxi cast a look at her, she had to obey.

The climate in early winter is always cloudy and cloudy, and it gets dark just after Chen.Yunqi Palace has already turned on the lights, and the faint light illuminates the way back to the palace, welcoming Nalan Qing's return.

"Queen Mother, Lord Lang is back!" Huairou rushed over excitedly, and just received the report from the palace guards in advance, she excitedly came to report to Yunjin.

A smile appeared on Yun Jin's face for an instant, and he finally let go of it with a sigh of relief in his heart, but the expression on his face turned cold in an instant.Huairou felt that Mrs. Lan must have come back too late and angered the Queen Mother, hey, it seems that a criticism is indispensable, but Mrs. Lang really has the ability to force the Queen Mother to such a level, she has never seen it before. Yun Jin looks like this.

Only Yuan Xi understood that Yun Jin's first reaction was the most real when she heard Lord Lang came back, and that short-lived smile was the most real reaction in her heart.

Nalan Qing was in a hurry. He didn't intend to reveal the mask today, but things went beyond his expectations. After returning to the Nalan Chamber of Commerce to prepare the human skin mask, he took a long time and spent a lot of time trying to disguise himself.

When she stepped into Yunqi Palace and saw Yun Jin who was safe and sound, all her emotions disappeared, and the most important thing was that Yun Jin was safe.

"The minister came back late, please forgive me, the Queen Mother."

"Do you still know what time it is when you come back? Did it take so long to chase an assassin?" Yun Jin was really angry, and Nalan Qing shrugged, pretending to be wronged, "The minister fought with the assassin, entangled in the chase, and entangled in the entanglement." Going to look for it wasted time, I beg the Queen Mother to see that I also want to track down the assassin, and for the sake of loyal escort, please forgive me..."

"The Ai family didn't let you go after them. Qin Tiansi and Li Ruo are the ones who hunt down the assassins. Even if they catch the assassins, there are patrol troops. The capital of Jidu is full of nets. Once the four major city gates are closed, they can't escape. Why do you need to chase them yourself? What if I'm injured?" Yun Jin originally wanted to wait for her to come back and let it go without saying a word, but for some reason, seeing her return safely, she couldn't control her anger.

It's just that this seemingly questioning tone was full of concern and worry, Huairou couldn't hear it and thought it was a real blame, but Nalanqing could feel the emotion in her tone, Yun Jin rambled so much, it was not because she ran away without permission Does it make her worry?

"The queen mother~ Your minister is safe and sound, it's all right." Nalan Qing's tone was gentle, almost caring, his eyes were like a stream of clear springs, reflecting the slightly angry Yun Jin.

"It's really too late for something to happen... It's not like..." Yun Jin wanted to ask for a few words, but Na Lanqing suddenly stepped forward to grab her hand and pulled her into his arms.

Huairou opened her mouth wide in shock, covered her hands at a loss, before she could react, Yuan Xi forcibly pulled her out, leaving only Nalan Qing and Yun Jin.

The lights of Yunqi Palace reflected Yun Jin's astonished expression. This unexpected hug made her whole body stiff, and the surrounding was so quiet that only Nalan Qing's breathing and her own heartbeat could be heard.Yun Jin felt that her world stopped suddenly, as if it was as familiar and kind as the previous life and the present life, a warmth surrounded her, and a certain part of her heart was slowly melting.

The door of the heart that had been locked seemed to be pried open. Nalanqing's enthusiasm and care turned into violent winds and waves, and every layer of waves could stir up waves in his heart.

In addition to being able to feel the warm arms, she only had infinite peace of mind, which made her want to lean on it, and no longer be alone with the giants.The phoenix crown weighed heavily on her, but it was the whole life she had to devote to it.

Fengguan...she is the Queen Mother!How can you fall into this emotion? ?How could Lan Qing hug her like this?

Yun Jin was suddenly awakened by a heavy punch from reality, she struggled with all her strength, trying to push Nalan Qing away.
