Chapter 329 Ye Liuyun is about to travel far away.

"Why did you say that, mother?"

Li Yunrui was horrified, his expression was extremely timid and frightened.

The Queen Mother was silent for a while, looking at her daughter who was wiping her tears, slightly absent-minded, and after a long while she said: "I am old, but my heart is clear. The ugly thing you did just came out of His Majesty. Now there is no one who can punish you, why don't you tell the truth?"

Li Yunrui said anxiously: "Is this how mother sees Ruier? Ruier only wants to see the best for my brother and the country of Qing. As for what will happen to me in the future, as long as it is my brother's order, Ruier will do it!"

After a long silence, the Queen Mother seemed to accept this statement, but the two of them became further apart in heart.

But this scene between mother and daughter has to continue.

"I heard from the palace maids that you have been crying every day since you returned to Guangxin Palace. His Majesty has passed away. Why are you doing this?"

"I am not hurting myself. I know crying alone will not help, but I just can't suppress the sadness in my heart." The princess forced a smile and spoke softly in a strangely gentle tone, as if she was comforting the queen mother. "I will be careful in the future, and please take care of yourself, mother."

After saying that, she slowly sat down at the head of the bed and held the empress dowager in her arms. She looked like a teenage girl acting coquettishly to her mother.

Such a warm scene should have made the elders happy, but the Queen Mother got goose bumps all over her body.
"If you're thoughtful, you can come to Hanguang Hall more often to talk to me these days."

"I will, Mother."

The two of them just leaned on each other and hugged each other, but only they themselves knew what they were thinking.

“Who are you going to support?”

Seeing that Li Yunrui did not answer, the Queen Mother changed the question, "What do you think of Fan Xian?"

Li Yunrui was slightly startled. It didn't matter who she was asked about her support before. After all, the Queen Mother was still alive. Even if she was the eldest princess, rich and powerful, they could not do anything as long as the old woman didn't nod.

She could understand this, but she didn't expect that the Queen Mother would speak so directly to someone as sharp-tongued as Fan Xian.

Is this what you want?
"I don't understand what mother means."

The Queen Mother's hand that was gently stroking Li Yunrui's back stiffened slightly, and her tone became cold, "Do you think Fan Xian did this?"

"It can only be him!"

Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother's eyebrows furrowed. This sentence revealed a lot of things. "Go on!"

"His mother is Ye Qingmei." The eldest princess showed a gentle expression on her face and did not continue to talk about this point, but the empress dowager understood it all.

This is a revenge for the murder of the mother.

Nodding slowly, the Queen Mother asked softly, "I heard that Fan Xian has always refused to use the last name Li?"

The eldest princess lowered her head and confirmed the Queen Mother's statement.

"He is also in collusion with Northern Qi and Dongyi City. These people are also present in Dadong Mountain this time." Seeing the Queen Mother frowning slightly, the Princess said calmly, "These things will be known once we investigate. Before Fan Xian went to Jiangnan, he had close contacts with the two countries. Otherwise, where would he get so much money to do so many things in Jiangnan?"

"To recruit merchants from banks?" said the Queen Mother.

At this point, how could Li Yunrui not see that the Queen Mother was just confirming her inner thoughts and giving herself an excuse?

"That's his name." Li Yunrui leaned slightly to the side, his tone becoming colder, "Like mother, like child. Should we say he is worthy of being Ye Qingmei's son?"

Hey.

The Queen Mother also thought of that terrifying woman.

After a while, the two returned to the topic of the court. "Your Majesty's children all have their own merits. Perhaps they were suppressed too harshly by Your Majesty before. Fortunately, they are back on track now. I am very relieved."

The Queen Mother continued slowly, "After this, you should stop torturing them! Women should behave like women!"

"My daughter understands."

Li Yunrui looked calm and said sincerely, "In the future, my daughter will behave herself and stop causing trouble."

With this response, the room fell silent again. The Queen Mother slowly raised her hand and slapped Li Yunrui's face heavily, making a muffled sound.

Li Yunrui cried out in pain and was slapped to the other side of the bed, with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.

Neither of them spoke. His Majesty was going to punish Li Yunrui when he was here. But before the punishment was implemented, Emperor Qing passed away. Then, only she, the old lady, could punish him!
The chests of both the beater and the beaten were heaving, and it took a long time for them to calm down and hug each other tightly.

······
"Uncle, let's go to Dongyi City!"

Fan Xian had a hunch that perhaps Li Ang and his group had gone to Kyoto!

Wu Zhu did not ask why, but just turned in another direction silently with his back to Fan Xian.

"Your injury?"

"It's nothing serious." Fan Xian smiled bitterly, "It's just that the small things I had on me were lost in the sea, and there are spies in all the drugstores in Qing Country. I dare not contact the people in the Supervisory Council in the short term."

He couldn't tell whether the princess's men were still in the Supervisory Council, and whether it was really Chen Pingping's intention that the five thousand people could arrive at Dadong Mountain smoothly.

Although he was safe with Wuzhu by his side, he was in no hurry to return to Kyoto.

What to do back now?
There are still a lot of troubles in the palace that have not been resolved. If I go back now, I'm afraid it won't just be a fight between the Crown Prince and the Second Prince, but the two of them will turn their guns on me and surround me!

If he met Li An and Ku He on the way back to Beijing, he glanced at Wu Zhu and thought that he might not be able to protect himself.

What's more, he also needed to confirm the attitude of the old man in Dongyi City.

"There's someone ahead."

Wu Zhu spoke very abruptly.

Fan Xian carefully sensed and looked forward with all his eyesight, but he didn't see anything. He believed Wu Zhu's sense, and sure enough, after about five minutes, the two people appeared in his sight.

Wang Shisanlang, and Ye Liuyun?
How did he survive such an explosion?

Wu Zhu stopped and put Fan Xian on the ground, and they both became alert.

"I am just a cripple, why are you two doing this?"

Ye Liuyun smiled and greeted him. Only then did Fan Xian see that Ye Liuyun had tied himself to Wang Shisanlang with a strip of cloth. Wang Shisanlang nodded in greeting with a wry smile on his face.

Paying attention to his surroundings, Fan Xian saw Wu Zhu nodded gently, and then he smiled and said, "It seems that I really have a destiny with you, Senior."

He did not ask how the two survived the explosion, but his tone became cold and asked, "Where is Shadow?"

Most importantly, where is the gun?

"If Master Xiao Fan wants revenge, he can do it now."

This sentence already explains the answer.

Fan Xian looked around and found no place to put such a huge gun. He understood that the gun might not be in Ye Liuyun's hands.

"I don't understand, His Majesty has treated you so well, why do you still do this for him." Fan Xian understood what blind loyalty was, but the situations in different countries were different. Besides, Ye Liuyun was a grandmaster after all. There was no need to say much about the character of those who could become grandmasters.

He took out a dagger. It was not poisonous, but it was cold and sharp.

"I am a person of this world after all. In the end, I still cannot achieve transcendence." Ye Liuyun pulled with his teeth, the cloth belt on his body loosened, and he fell to the ground.

Then, his body shook and a book fell to the ground.

"You can learn it, and then hand it over to the Ye family."

A great master, although he did not say please, there was an expectation in his eyes.

Fan Xian's heart is filled with sadness. As the most outstanding person in the world, he cannot break away from the shackles of his family. Will he be able to do the same one day?
