Qian Danqing left the Imperial Palace with a heavy heart. He didn't even go to see Imperial Consort Qian again. The change in Beitang Xuanyang was too shocking. The originally kind and elegant Crown Prince suddenly became a cold-blooded and ruthless person. He even wanted to kill his own father …
How did he raise such a nephew!
In the past, Beitang Xuanyang was too gentle, he felt that Beitang Xuanyang lacked boldness. But now, he missed the former Crown Prince. 13579246810ggaax..
"General, there's a carriage in front of us blocking our way," the manservant at the shaft said to Qian Danqing, who was in the carriage.
Qian Danqing was resting with her eyes closed. When she heard this, she said, "Wait a little longer. Let them pass first."
The servant said, "They don't seem to be leaving."
Qian Danqing frowned and was about to speak when she heard a familiar voice from outside.
"General Qian, can I have a word with you?"
Hearing this, Qian Danqing suddenly opened her eyes. It was her!
He hurriedly lifted the curtain and jumped out of the carriage, quickly walking towards the opposite carriage.
"Jun 'er!" Qian Danqing blurted out. Only then did she realize that the person sitting on the shaft of the carriage was the teenager beside Mo Mingxi.
It looked like what the Imperial Consort had said was true. The Empress had been taken away by Ming Xi.
"General Qian, please come up." Queen Wang said in a low voice.
Qian Danqing didn't hesitate. He wasn't even wary of the Fire Phoenix on the shaft of the carriage. He just wanted to see Queen Wang.
By the time he got on the carriage, Fire Phoenix had already driven the carriage away.
Qian Danqing looked at the woman sitting in front of him with a burning gaze. After so many years, he still felt nervous when facing her.
"Jun 'er …" Qian Danqing lowered his head guiltily. He did not know how to face her. He and the Qian family were the main reason why she and the Eldest Prince ended up like this.
"I know that assassinating the First Prince wasn't your idea." Empress Wang looked at Qian Danqing calmly. After knowing him for so many years, she felt that she understood him. "Why?"
Qian Danqing said in a low voice, "I just want to kill him to vent your anger."
"Killing him is not a relief for me." Queen Wang said calmly, "You have hated him for so many years. Why don't you bear it?"
"There's no need to endure it anymore." Qian Danqing raised her head, her eyes filled with resentment. "He lost everything long ago."
Empress Wang asked, "What do you plan to do next? Force him to abdicate? Beitang Yu is not a person who will compromise so easily. "
"Then what do you want to do?" Qian Danqing asked in a low voice. He knew that Queen Wang must have something to discuss with him.
"This is what I wanted to ask you today." Empress Wang looked at Qian Danqing and asked, "Do you want to be the emperor yourself, or do you want to support Beitang Xuanyang?"
Qian Danqing's expression changed slightly, and he sounded a little agitated. "Jun 'er, how can you think of me like this?"
"Ask yourself honestly. Are you not tempted at all?" Queen Wang asked lightly, "Have you ever thought of replacing him?"
"No!" Qian Danqing said in a low voice, "I once asked you if you wanted the eldest prince to become the new emperor. You said that you only wanted the eldest prince to live a peaceful life … That's why I want Xuan Yang to ascend the throne as soon as possible, to show that he is pure and kind, and is very different from Imperial Consort Qian. If he ascends the throne, he will definitely treat you and the eldest prince well."
Empress Wang thought of Beitang Xuanyang. That child was indeed different from Imperial Consort Qian. He was very respectful to her since he was a child, and he had a gentle temperament. He also got along well with the First Prince. So when Beitang Yu appointed him as the Crown Prince, she did not object.
"What about now?" Empress Wang asked, "Why did the Crown Prince send troops to the Jin Kingdom? Why didn't he save the emperor? His ruthlessness in the Wilderness is very different from before. It's similar to Imperial Consort Qian."
Qian Danqing's expression was heavy. "I don't know why he changed so much. Maybe … I shouldn't have taken him to the battlefield."
"The battlefield can hone a person's heart of stone. You should know that very well." She and Beitang Yu both came out of the battlefield. She knew best what they had become later.
"He is going to kill Beitang Yu today." Qian Danqing whispered, "He is no longer the Crown Prince I know."
Empress Wang was stunned for a moment. "What did you say?"
"Did you come to me to save Beitang Yu?" Qian Danqing asked.
"No." Empress Wang shook her head. "I just want to ask you one thing. Is the eldest prince still alive?"
Qian Danqing lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Empress Wang. "I don't know … I had sent people to stop the Men of Sacrifice, but something happened to the eldest prince's ship."
Empress Wang closed her eyes and didn't want to look at Qian Danqing. "I know. Qian Danqing, if the eldest prince is dead, I will make the Qian Family pay the price."
"Jun 'er …" Qian Danqing looked at her sadly. The last thing he wanted was to be enemies with Empress Wang.
"I will also kill Imperial Consort Qian." Empress Wang said, "She owes the Wang Family."
Qian Danqing said, "The Wang Family has no useful people for a long time. How do you want to take revenge? Jun 'er, don't hurt yourself. When Beitang Xuanyang ascends the throne, you will still be the Empress Dowager of the Northernmost Kingdom. "
"No, I won't live in the palace again." Empress Wang said lightly, "I have said what I should say. You and I have known each other for decades. From now on, we are no longer friends. There is no need to show any mercy in the future."
"Jun 'er, at the beginning … I just wanted to do something for you." Qian Danqing said painfully. He didn't know it would become like this in the end. There seemed to be a bottomless pit in his heart, and he always wanted more inexplicably.
Empress Wang smiled. "You'd better look at your heart. Are you helping Beitang Xuanyang for him or for yourself?"
Qian Danqing closed his eyes. In the depths of his heart, he did have such a thought. But at that time, he thought that if he could get everything that Beitang Yu had one day, then he would be able to be with the person he loved.
This was what he had dreamed of most.
But as time went by, this wish became a little distant.
"Please go back." Empress Wang said.
"Jun 'er, you go back with me. Mo Mingxi is not a good person. He took her out of the palace by using you." Qian Danqing said.
Empress Wang smiled faintly. "Are you a good person?"
Who could be a good person? Even she had killed people to achieve her goal. Was she a good person?
"I won't let you be threatened by him." Qian Danqing held her hand. "If you don't want to go back to the palace, I will take you to another place."
"General Qian, do you think you can take Empress Wang away from me?" Fire Phoenix's voice came from outside the carriage lazily.
Qian Danqing's face turned livid. "Then try!"
"I will not go with you." Empress Wang said coldly. "Go."
Fire Phoenix directly reached in from outside, grabbed Qian Danqing's collar, and threw him out. "You are so long-winded!"
