I pressed, "Really? Who?"

She pretended to be embarrassed and thought for a moment, and said, "Oh, I'm getting older, I can't remember it anymore, why don't you tell me about your experience, and I'll see if I can think of something."

I think it makes sense, and just as I was about to say it, Zhou Yanwen suddenly pushed the door open and came in, startling me.

The old lady glanced at Zhou Yanwen's direction, gradually suppressed her smile, and said softly, "I'm getting more and more unruly, so rampant, what does it look like?"

Zhou Yanwen stepped forward quickly, raised his hands in a bow, and said, "Mother, please forgive me. It's already late at night, and my son wants to bring the fish back to the girl. If he lives in the temple, it may be inconvenient."

The old lady straightened up slowly and said, "It's nothing inconvenient, but it's just occupying a guest room."

Zhou Yanwen refused to let her go, and said: "Miss Yugui is a friend brought back by Youran. If Youran comes back tonight, if she doesn't see us, there must be trouble. Mother, please take care of me."

I wandered back and forth between the two of them curiously. Although I don't know how to get along with my mother, I always feel that the atmosphere of their mother and son talking like this is really strange.

After debating for a while, the old lady finally compromised.

She sighed, and said: "Forget it, then you can go back, but since Miss Yugui has come all the way to Tianli Kingdom, let her stay in Tianli Kingdom for a while, and also go to the palace. "

Zhou Yanwen said "yes" and bowed deeply before waving to me, beckoning me to follow him.

I got up, bid farewell to the old lady, and left behind Zhou Yanwen.

On the way back, I always felt that something was weird. The old lady didn't look like a bad person, but the way she looked at me always gave me a strange feeling.

It was as if the person in front of her was not a person, but a prey, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable.

There is also the relationship between their mother and child, which makes people wonder why it feels like this.

While I was thinking, the carriage stopped suddenly, and then Zhou Yanwen opened the curtain and sat on it.

Under my puzzled eyes, the carriage set off again.

"You...why do you want to ride in a carriage with me, not afraid of being misunderstood."

Zhou Yanwen suppressed the smile on his face, and put on a serious expression, which looked more like Shen Suifeng.

"What did mother tell you?"

I faltered and said: "It's nothing, just gossip, my aunt asked me to tell her my experience, saying that your family once lost a child, and I look so similar to her, maybe..."

He interrupted me and said, "There's no telling. She's lying to you. I'm also to blame. I shouldn't be curious and take you to see her."

I said blankly, "What's the matter, aren't you and your mother getting along?"

Zhou Yanwen sighed, and said: "From many years ago, my mother seems to have changed. Although she still has a familiar smile on her face, her eyes have already changed. I think I don't know what she was thinking, and I don't know what she was planning every day. Then... she went crazy."

"crazy?"

I was shocked. Although the old lady looked a little strange, she talked and chatted normally, and she didn't look like a lunatic.

He sighed and said: "Yes, crazy, inexplicable, and after that, she was sent to the National Temple by her father. She thought she could be blessed by the gods to make her better, but who knew, it was even worse. She always said that she Being able to talk to the statue, and the statue will tell her our every move, it's just weird."

"Since you know that she is a patient, you should stay with her well. Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

"Because I'm not sure whether she is really sick or just pretending." Zhou Yanwen suddenly raised his head, looked at me, and said, "My family's situation is very complicated, You Ran may have told you, of course, she may not have explained it clearly. The battle for the throne began many years ago, and the various forces are fighting openly and secretly. In the end, no one knows whether my mother is really crazy, or if she is too rich to operate other things under the guise of being crazy."

Hearing this, I couldn't help but gasp.

Sure enough, the palace family is not a good place to go, people are suspicious of each other, even mother and child are like this, let alone others.

He suddenly put his hand on mine, and said seriously: "It's my fault today, I shouldn't have let you see her, but please forget what happened today, and don't let Tianli Kingdom's disgusting things , affecting your mood."

What he said made me a little embarrassed, and I didn't know what to say.

After a long time, I smiled and said, "Don't worry, just pretend that what happened today didn't happen, and I won't tell anyone."

He nodded in satisfaction, then stopped the carriage and walked down.

I leaned on the carriage and fell asleep, my mind was full of the old lady's face and her eyes, which made me shudder.

After a long time, I finally woke up from my sleep when I heard someone shouting.

I opened the curtain to look and found that we had already returned to Yayuan, and Zhou Youran was making a scene at the gate of Yayuan.

"Cousin, you are too much. You went out to play and didn't wait for me to come back. Fortunately, I brought you delicious food from the palace with good intentions. Now I regret it. I want to eat them all. I am so mad. The kind that can't be coaxed well..."

Zhou Youran had always been lively, but at this moment it was like a cannonball. Zhou Yanwen had no room to retaliate, and could only retreat step by step, but the more he retreated, the more energetic Zhou Youran became.

Fortunately, Zhou Youran's temper is relatively good, and she is probably more used to this cousin, so she kept smiling and didn't reply, just waiting for Zhou Youran to say that she was tired.

Sure enough, after a while, Zhou Youran was exhausted, and her voice gradually weakened.

Zhou Yanwen raised his hand and rubbed her head, and said with a smile, "Aren't you tired, is the food you brought from the palace enough to replenish your energy? If not, I'll order someone to make you some more?"

I watched in a daze on the carriage.

Zhou Yanwen was indeed a little different from Zhou Youran.

When he was talking to her or making trouble with her, his doting eyes were different from everyone else's.

When I was in a daze, Zhou Youran found me who was peeking at me, rushed over angrily, and said, "And you, it's so embarrassing, my cousin didn't take me, and you don't know how to take me, I'm sorry You are so good, you even help you steal people..."

As soon as the word came out, the people next to me were stunned and looked at me in surprise.

I quickly raised my hand to cover Zhou Youran's mouth, and whispered, "Don't talk nonsense, what is stealing, that is saving."

Zhou Youran pushed my hand away, and muttered: "Sneaky to save people, isn't that just stealing people, hum, I'm angry, you don't coax me, you teach me, I'm not happy."

I also imitated Zhou Yanwen, stretched out my hand from the window of the carriage, rubbed her head, and said with a smile: "Okay, stop making trouble, otherwise Zhou Yanwen will not make enough delicious food for you of."

She quarreled with me for a long time before finally getting out of the carriage and going back to the room to rest.

As expected, this girl Zhou Youran still loves to pester me, she doesn't sleep in her own room, she insists on sleeping with me.

I've been in Lanyou Country for a long time, and I've long since gotten used to it, let alone now that I'm in someone else's territory, I can bear it.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I closed my eyes, this girl said softly: "Yugui, I missed something when I chatted with the Queen Mother today. She asked who sent me back, and I said it was you..."

I opened my eyes suspiciously and asked, "So what?"

She turned over, looked at me and said, "The Queen Mother is very interested in you, let me take you into the palace in a few days."

I was dumbfounded, looked at Zhou Youran speechlessly, and asked, "I'm not a strange person, why are you so interested in me?"

Zhou Youran pursed her lips, and said, "You don't know, your reputation is huge, and, after all, the mother and son of the Queen Mother were able to sit on the throne because of the help of Lan Youguo, and now Lan Youguo is here as an envoy. Minister, it's not justified if she doesn't see her."

I sighed and said, "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come. It's really troublesome. I really don't want to get involved in a place like the palace."

After hearing my complaint, Zhou Youran rolled her eyes a few times, and then she had an idea, and said to me: "Well, in exchange, I will take you to watch a very interesting scene tomorrow morning. After watching it, Come with me to see the Queen Mother again, okay?"

I thought to myself, since they have come to their territory, it is really unreasonable not to meet them, not to mention that Zhou Youran can take me to see interesting scenes, it is not a disadvantage, so I nodded, which is regarded as my agreement.

Of course, I still pretended to be very embarrassed and reluctant to make this girl feel that she owed me.

Sure enough, Zhou Youran was extraordinarily quiet this night, not noisy, and fell asleep obediently, so I couldn't help giving myself a thumbs up in my heart, I'm so smart.

In the early morning of the second day, when it was still daylight, I felt my nose itchy, and when I opened my eyes, I found that Zhou Youran was brushing my face with her hair.

I rubbed my face impatiently, and muttered, "Why don't you sleep in the morning?"

Zhou Youran pouted and said, "Didn't I tell you to take you to see an interesting scene, if you don't go now, it's too late."

One sentence instantly aroused my curiosity, and the drowsiness disappeared.

After waking up to freshen up, he didn't even have time to eat breakfast, so he sneaked out under Zhou Youran's leadership.

She was familiar with the way here, and she didn't follow the right path along the way. She either climbed over the wall or drilled the tunnel. After walking for a long time, she got out from a secret room, behind the screen.

I was a little annoyed and muttered, "What are you doing?"

Zhou Youran quickly made a silent gesture to me, then poked her head out from behind the screen secretly, and beckoned me to go too.

Although I was full of doubts, I still followed her example and slowly approached her, only to find that this was a hall.

The overall layout is similar to the main hall of King Lanyou's early dynasty, but it will look more resplendent here.

Moreover, Tianli Kingdom is covered with snow all the year round and is extremely cold. Therefore, many golden stoves are filled in the hall, and the red fires are shining in the stoves, making it look very warm.

The door must be closed during the day, which makes the room darker. In order to improve this aspect, all the window papers in the hall are made of bright paper with better light transmission, which looks very interesting.

Probably because he noticed that my eyes were looking around randomly, Zhou Youran pulled me bitterly, and said in a low voice, "Where are you looking? Look at the host!"

After she reminded me, I realized that there were quite a few well-dressed people standing under the main hall, telling me about my work.

But on the main seat of the main hall, there was a child lying on his stomach, which looked extremely weird.

I recalled it carefully, if it was in Lanyou country, the king should be sitting in that position, listening to the ministers' reports and pointing out the country at the same time.

Looking at the current scene in Tianli Kingdom, a child who looked like only two or three years old was lying on the throne, and the officials below reported one by one, and then looked at the king, playing with his own, it was a real joy.

Occasionally, the nanny next to him couldn't stand it anymore, and would take away the toy in his hand and make him look like a king.

But the child is a child after all, when the toy left his hand, he immediately cried and screamed, and the courtiers below could only lower their heads, although they were helpless, no one dared to say anything.

But to say that he is a child and ignorant, one of the ministers below couldn't help muttering: "Such a king, just wait for the country to perish, alas."
