"Enough! Roll... Get out! " The empress howled as she pointed at the door, her gaze towards the ghost mask not concealing the hatred in her heart.

The bronze masked man's face darkened, seeing the empress's rage, he didn't dare say anything further. He was angry, but he didn't dare say anything to the empress. He shut his mouth, opened the door and left.

After the Ghost-Mask left, Xuanyuan Jie, who was hiding not too far away, appeared. This was the first time he felt so much hatred for this man as he watched his master's departing figure.

"Do you believe me now?" Xuanyuan Ye also stood out and looked at the door that was still open. The Queen Mother was sitting on a chair with a headache.

At this moment, he felt a faint pain in his chest. If his mother was that good, he might be able to agree with his father. No man would be able to tolerate such a betrayal. Moreover, he had heard everything clearly, but he didn't believe that he was a wild man's son.

Clenching his fists, he had the urge to rush in and ask what had happened. However, his anger was completely extinguished when he saw that it had only sprouted a little.

"I won't believe it." Xuanyuan Jie eagerly wanted to rush in and find out what was going on, but Xuanyuan Ye immediately signed his name to stop him.

"Why? Don't you hate me? " Xuanyuan Jie angrily looked at his third brother. His heart felt as if it had been cut open and blood was dripping from it.

"Hate!" I also hate that my mother did such an unclean thing, hated that I could do anything for power, hated that I was very good at being born in a royal family. But so what if he hated her? "With the facts in front of us, we can only face them." Xuanyuan Ye gnashed his teeth as he vented the anger in his heart. He punched the wall and wiped off a piece of his skin.

Xuanyuan Jie looked at his third brother in disbelief. He never thought that his third brother would have so many complaints in his heart. It seemed that ever since he was an elder brother, he was only busy with power and had completely forgotten about caring.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Xuanyuan Ye pulled Second Brother to the side and hid himself. The two of them watched as the ghost face returned and once again walked into the Queen Mother's room and closed the door.

"You!" Xuanyuan Jie flung off his third brother and fiercely glared at him.

The moment the Ghost Face entered her mother's room, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind. He suddenly remembered that her mother had once said, "It's both true and false. Why don't you ask me?"

"What else do you want to say?" Xuanyuan Jie asked impatiently, his eyes still fixed on the Queen Mother's door.

"It's true, it's true. Ask him, and ask no questions." Xuanyuan Ye muttered the words that his mother had said.

"What do you mean?" Xuanyuan Jie asked out of curiosity.

"One time, when I saw my mother walking too close to the ghost mask, I was very angry and got scolded severely by my mother." Xuanyuan Ye recalled that night and said after a pause, "After I finished shouting, I was just about to go out when I heard all of this from Imperial Mother."

Too deep for Xuanyuan Jie to fathom. He looked at his second brother and shook his head again.

"Is it something that I have always misunderstood mother? Many of it is just an illusion." Xuanyuan Ye had thought of it. Although he was not sure, he was a little happy in his heart.

Xuanyuan Jie understood what was going on and the anger from earlier faded away. At this moment, he realized that his third brother sometimes thought about things more thoroughly than he did and was also calm enough. If it were not for the fact that he was not interested in that position, he might have become a very powerful enemy.

"Let's go back!" Since Queen Mother did not have such thoughts, then I'll have to trouble Second Brother to keep an eye on the Ghost Face and not let anything go wrong. " With these words, Xuanyuan Ye stood up and left for his own courtyard.

Xuanyuan Jie was still squatting on the ground, watching his third brother's departing back. There were many things he could not understand.

Third brother also loved small, and third brother's love is not to have, but to exile, watching her find happiness. This sort of nobility was something that he, of his generation, would never be able to achieve.

His love was to have, to have!

Not long later, the Ghost Face opened the door and walked out. Xuanyuan Jie pretended to be on his way to find his mother and came face to face with him.

"Master? Is the Queen Mother in? " He asked politely while cupping his hands.

"Yes, what's the matter?" In response to his words, the devils in every direction inadvertently lifted their heads and saw Xuanyuan Jie's gaze. This gaze was a bit strange, causing him to become cautious.

"Go ask your mother why did you agree to Jie`er's request, and why did you make a move on Xiaoxiao?" Xuanyuan Jie purposely revealed his purpose.

Hearing that it was for such a small matter, the Ghost Face's fury that had just been suppressed was ignited once again. Not caring about the fact that he was standing at the entrance, he started to curse at Xuanyuan Jie loudly, "You still know that she's your mother? For a woman, you don't even have the least bit of respect for your mother? Have you thought about what she's thinking? She is a woman and cannot be loved by his husband. Even his own son wants to betray her, yet you still want to let her live? "

Xuanyuan Jie was stunned for a moment. Only when a man's love for a woman was meticulous would he be so angry because she had been hurt.

Master was such a man, a man who loved his mother deeply.

Suddenly, a conflict arose in his heart. He did not want his bloodline to be incorrect, yet he could not resist his master's kindness.

"What is it? Is there nothing more to say? " Seeing that Xuanyuan Jie was silent, the bronze masked man roared again.

The empress opened her eyes as she was about to take a nap. Suddenly opening the door, he saw his son standing in front of the ghost mask.

"Jie'er, what did you come to find mother for?" The empress already knew why her son had come, this question was for the Ghost Face to hear.

Everyone was tacit in their agreement. They looked at each other and fell silent.

After a long while, Xuanyuan Jie was the first to speak. "It's nothing. This son heard that Mother hasn't been sleeping well for the past few days, so I came over to take a look and coincidentally bumped into Master."

"Come in!" The empress wiped the corners of her eyes with a silk handkerchief. It looked like her tears had yet to completely freeze.

Xuanyuan Jie cupped his hands towards the ghost mask and was about to leave, but was pulled back by the demon mask. He leaned over and whispered into the Ghost Face's ear, "Don't provoke your mother anymore, she has never been in good health."

"Jie'er understands. Thank you for your concern, Master." Xuanyuan Jie smiled and looked away from his master's hand. Without looking back, he walked towards the empress's house.

The door closed, and the Ghost Face was still worried. He moved in a flash to the window, pierced a hole in it, and focused on looking inside.

Xuanyuan Jie paid his respects to her mother before sitting down beside her. He secretly looked at her mother and suddenly found that her wrinkles were much more pronounced, making her feel much older.

"Is there something wrong?" The Queen sat down.

"Don't worry, this son came to visit the Queen Mother. Why did the Queen Mother not sleep well these few days? Xuanyuan Jie did not want to ask anymore questions, he merely wanted to see this mother of his.

The empress also put down her usual airs, being very modest and amiable as she said, "You guys have been gone for more than half a month. The empress is staying alone in this cold place. Your royal father hasn't come for a long, long time. He had already forgotten about his mother when he was with that slut all day. Sigh … The Queen Mother's life is getting worse with each passing day. "

As he spoke, tears that he had not finished just now flowed out once more. Within her hazy gaze, she seemed to see the emperor's doting smile once more.

The light of the setting sun was very dazzling. The warmth that rested on his arms was a dream that she had always dreamed of.

"Imperial Mother, maybe Imperial Father has been a bit busy recently." As the words left his mouth, Xuanyuan Jie also felt that this excuse of his was extremely terrible.

The empress shook her head, smiling with tears in her eyes, "He always seems to be busy, busy communicating with that slut, busy flirting with her. He has forgotten about the Queen Mother as if she did not exist. "

"Queen Mother, there are some things that might not be what you think." Xuanyuan Jie comforted him again.

"Then what else can we do? "The truth is right in front of you. He only has eyes for that slut, and only has eyes for his son. He never even looks at you." The more the empress spoke, the more upset she felt. The empress kept wiping her tears, crying even harder.

Xuanyuan Jie walked forward and knelt down on one knee. He held the empress's hand and said in an extremely gentle voice, "Imperial Mother, don't think too much. No matter what happens in the future, Jie'er and Ye'er will always be by your side. Queen Mother, please rest well. The next time Jie Er leaves the palace, I'll definitely inform you first. "

The empress felt comfortable in her heart. She caressed Xuanyuan Jie's face and said with a teary smile, "With you all here, it's better than anything else. Maybe after all these years, mother has been asking too much, so I feel more and more tired. "Jie Er, you have to do your best. If you can't beat that bastard, we won't even have a good life."

"Yes!" Xuanyuan Jie nodded his head heavily. He knew that this was her mother's lifelong hope and that he could not so cruelly destroy her dream.

The empress looked at Xuanyuan Jie with teary eyes before continuing, "Although Imperial Mother is very harsh on you, I also hope that you can live a better life in the future. We don't have much time left, if we don't eliminate that lowly bastard before your royal father leaves, the consequences would be unimaginable. You can't ruin the Queen Mother's many years of hard work for a woman. "

Suddenly, Xuanyuan Jie understood that behind his mother's benevolence, there were many other dreams. That dream was built on his ruthlessness towards him.

Forget it!

All these years, the Queen Mother had sacrificed a lot for him. As his son, he should bury the bitterness in his heart and let the Queen Mother smile a little more!

He focused his gaze on her mother and replied seriously, "Mother, please be at ease. This son will put aside the personal feelings of his children first. For men, as long as they have the world, what kind of women do they not have? "

"Good!" You'll be happy if you can figure it out for your mother. " The empress was overjoyed upon hearing this. Then, after a short while, she heard Xuanyuan Jie speak up again.

"However, this Queen has promised this son and this son that she will not go back on her word. Mother, you have your dreams, and I have mine. Your son's dream is very simple and easy. I hope that your mother can fulfill it. " Xuanyuan Jie was not stupid and would not have been surrounded by his mother like that.

The empress was stunned for a moment before she stopped crying and looked at Xuanyuan Jie in a stiff manner. At this moment, she couldn't help but agree with Ghost Face's words.

"Muhou, rest well. Your son will come and see you again when I have time." Xuanyuan Jie didn't want to speak anymore. He stood up, cupped his hands, and walked out of the house, heading towards the other courtyards.

Outside the window, the Ghost-Masked, who had been eavesdropping, had a sly smile on his face. Looking at the expression on the empress's face, he knew his words were working.

Yes, he didn't go in right away, he wasn't that stupid, he didn't want to be a woman's exit. Now, what he needed to do was solve the problem outside the palace.

The mantis stalks the cicada while the oriole follows. With a flash, Xuanyuan Ye's figure appeared behind the Ghost-Mask. He gnashed his teeth as he looked at this man, the hatred in his eyes ignited once again as he followed this man out of the courtyard's gate.
