Xuanyuan Kebo heard the other party's threat, concealed his sloppy aura, and bowed with both hands: "Then the younger brother will take his leave first."

Xuanyuan Tai nodded, and invited Li Yan to the Queen's bedroom.

After passing the pass, the queen summoned the two of them.

"Empress Mother, Erchen has brought his nine younger siblings to see you."

"Meet the empress!"

The queen raised her eyes to look over, and said softly: "Come here and let Ben Gong take a closer look."

Li Yan hesitated for a moment, seeing Xuanyuan Tai's beckoning eyes, she was also sizing up the queen as she walked over slowly.

This queen looks as good-faced as Xuanyuantai, and she also has a strong sandalwood fragrance on her body.

The queen looked at it for a moment, then nodded with satisfaction: "He is a good child, I let you follow Xiaojiu, I have wronged you."

"How could you be wronged? Your Highness Ninth Prince is very kind and takes good care of me."

"Xiao Jiu's child was also raised by Ben Gong. How could he take care of others? Sit down and talk with Ben Gong."

"Queen, since you're going to talk to the nine younger siblings first, the minister will go out and wait first."

The door was closed, only Li Yan and the Queen were left in the room facing each other.

"Cough cough." The queen covered her mouth to cough, Li Yan stood up and poured tea, and the things in her hand fell into the teacup silently, "Your Majesty, drink some tea."

"I have a heart." The queen took a sip and looked at Li Yan for a while, "It's really beautiful."

"My lady, you are absurd."

"You don't have to be humble. You are still young. When you grow older, you will not be inferior to Concubine Yin."

"By the way, you probably don't know who Concubine Yin is, right? She is Xiao Jiu's biological mother, but it's a pity that God is jealous of her beauty, so she left early."

Li Yan tightened her fingertips on her lap, is the queen cursing her short life?

"My lady was joking."

Empress Su held Li Yan with her hands, her smile contained deep meaning: "Even if the sky is jealous of a beauty, there is a way to save her."

"Today, it's just you and me. Let's be honest. Jealousy of a beauty today is nothing more than man-made. If there are too many people who are jealous, there will be many dangers. If the backing is strong, it will naturally block some dangers, don't you think?"

The implication is that if you want to live a long time, you have to find a stable backer.

The other party was expressly telling Li Yan to ask her to join him.

"Your Majesty is right, but my daughter-in-law believes in the truth that man can conquer nature."

Li Yan withdrew his hand, with a neither humble nor overbearing gesture.

She doesn't need to rely on anyone, she is her own backer.

Seeing this, the queen knew that Li Yan understood, but she didn't want to agree.

"It's okay, I believe you will understand this truth in the future."

"I'll talk about the future, but the daughter-in-law has something to ask the empress."

The crisp snapping of fingers was like a horn of command, and the queen in front of her eyes gradually turned from clear to empty.

"Now what do I ask, what do you answer."

"who are you?"

"Xiang Lingyue, daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Queen of Lingxiao Kingdom, the most honorable woman in Lingxiao Kingdom."

There is a hint of pride in the other party's calm explanation, which shows that this is what she has in mind.

"Is Xuanyuantai your own son?"

With her helping Xuanyuantai like this, Li Yan will doubt the relationship between the two of them.

"No, he's just the son of a lowly maidservant!"

Is it hatred?

"You don't like Xuanyuantai? Why?"

"I took him over, gave him the best teaching, gave him the most honorable status, but he threatened me, he is a white-eyed wolf!"

"What did he threaten you with?"

"He is holding Bengong's criminal evidence and wants Bengong to help him wholeheartedly."

"What bad thing have you done?"

"I……"

"boom!"

The sound of pushing the door interrupted the queen's voice, and the queen regained her clarity in an instant.

Noticing Li Yan's doubts, Xuanyuantai said: "Seeing that you have been chatting for a long time, I would like to ask if you need some pastries?"

Xuanyuantai had been standing outside the door, but the conversation inside gradually weakened, so he found an excuse to come in.

Looking between the two of them, Li Yan said calmly: "No need, I didn't say hello to my lord when I came out, I was afraid that he would cry if he was in a hurry, so I went back first."

Xuanyuan Jue, who was eavesdropping on the roof, raised his eyebrows, would he cry?

The queen had a headache, and she was not in the mood to deal with Li Yan any longer: "In that case, Tai'er will send Li Yan off!"

"Good mother."

The two walked side by side on the narrow corridor.

"What did you talk to the queen about?"

"It's nothing to talk about, it's just some homework."

"My queen has lived in Foyuan Temple all year round. She has always loved purity and has never summoned other concubines. You are the first one who can chat with her for so long. It seems that she likes you very much."

Li Yan also just smiled.

"What I told you last time was not a polite word, just come to me if you need it."

"Thank you, His Royal Highness, for your kindness, but I don't think it's necessary. I'm just a woman. I don't deal with others, so I don't think I will get into any trouble."

"The nine younger brothers and sisters are really young, and they are too naive. This royal family is not for you to live a good life if you want to live a stable life. If you don't make trouble, it doesn't mean that danger will not find you."

"Then I would like to thank Your Highness for the reminder, and my sister will pay attention."

Li Yan didn't believe that Xuanyuantai couldn't hear her rejection, but the other party insisted on wooing her, if she continued to refuse, I'm afraid the trouble would come sooner.

Before that, she had to deal with Emperor Ling Xiao as soon as possible and get the safest backing.

"Your Highness, we are almost at the gate of the palace. The rest of Lu Chenmei can go on their own. Your Highness should go back to accompany the queen earlier!"

"Alright, be careful on the road."

...

"Finished?"

Just as Li Yan stepped out of the palace gate, a gloomy voice came from beside him.

"Why are you still here?"

Hearing the other party's disgusting voice, Xuanyuan Kebo was furious.

"Isn't I afraid that you will be entangled by that old witch, so I specially waited for you here?"

"Thank you! But you don't need it."

Xuanyuan Kebai caught up with Li Yan in two steps: "Don't think too much, I just think you didn't complain to Xuanyuantai, so I want to return your favor!"

"No, you helped me last time, and we settled it."

"Last time?" Xuanyuan Kebo reacted immediately, "You are you, he is him, he owes me a favor for helping Xuanyuan Jue, not you."

"My prince and I don't know each other."

[System notification: The blackening value has been reduced to 65]

Li Yan's heart was full of sweetness, it seemed that someone was worried about her, so he followed her.

"What are you laughing at?" He felt that Li Yan was smiling silly.

"It's okay, I just miss my prince, so I'm happier."

"Are you sick in your head, so infatuated with an ugly fool?"

"It's none of His Highness's business. Goodbye, His Highness. It's best not to see you again."

Saying that, Li Yan quickly ran two steps and got on the carriage.

Xuanyuan Kebo watched the carriage go away, feeling gradually empty in his heart.

"master!"

Xuanyuan Jue glanced at the person who appeared suddenly, and walked to the corner: "I heard that Xuanyuan Jue trusts Li Yan very much?"

"Yes, he also cares about Li Yan."

"If he doesn't die, someone should be worried."
