After becoming an outcast, she relied on the system to raise her children and counterattacked.

As soon as Guan Mengting finished speaking, the boy came to report.

"Prime Minister, King Anping is here."

Guan Mengting said calmly: "Just say that I came to the palace to express my condolences and was not in the house."

"Yes."

The boy immediately went out and returned to Ye Jingyao.

Ye Jingyao asked with a gloomy face: "When did Guan Mengting enter the palace?"

"It's been a while."

"Then let's enter the palace too."

Ye Jingyao grabbed the horse's belly and ran towards the palace.

Cining Palace.

The red lanterns have been replaced, and several huge white lanterns have been hung on the eaves, with the words "Denial" written on them in black pen. The palace people have also put on uniform mourning clothes. Looking from a distance, everything is pale.

There is a coffin inside the door of the main hall. The lid of the coffin is not sealed. It can be seen that the Queen Mother is wearing a phoenix crown and Xia Pei, holding an ancient jade in her mouth, and folding her hands on her chest. After being handled by a special person, the Queen Mother's expression is quite peaceful.

Ye Jingyu was also dressed in mourning clothes, standing tall and tall, standing in front of the coffin.

There was a calm expression on his handsome face.

Behind him were Yin Qingxuan and a group of concubines. They were talking in low voices. Suddenly, they heard a rush of footsteps outside the door, and someone rolled and crawled into the courtyard.

"Mother, what's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly die?"

Ye Jingyao plopped down on his knees in front of the coffin, holding the coffin and wailing loudly.

"You were obviously good before...did someone hurt you?"

Ye Jingyao raised his head and looked at Ye Jingyu bitterly.

Ye Jingyu said expressionlessly: "Last night I held a banquet in the imperial garden, and all the courtiers were present. The Queen Mother suddenly fell ill and died. If King Anping doesn't believe it, he can ask any of his courtiers."

"The king will ask you. If you dare to do anything, I will ask you back."

Ye Jingyao held the coffin, gritting his teeth, his eyes were scarlet, but he didn't see a single tear.

"Believe it or not, it's up to you. Now that I'm here, I'll stay here to keep vigil for the Queen Mother."

Ye Jingyu didn't bother to talk to him anymore, so he led everyone out of the palace after speaking.

When he came to the door, he paused slightly and said to Su Caiwei: "Arrange a few concubines to take turns guarding the Queen Mother for these three days. Concubine Yao is exempted. She has a child, so it is not good to come to a place like this."

Su Caiwei bowed and said, "I obey, I will handle this matter well."

Everyone immediately looked at Yin Qingxuan with envy.

It's good to have children, you don't have to worry about anything.

Everyone couldn't help but be afraid at the thought of having to take turns to keep vigil for the Queen Mother, but it was useless to be afraid. This was a royal etiquette. Not only them, but also the concubines and concubines had to come.

Su Caiwei turned to Yin Qingxuan and said with a humble expression: "Zhao'er is still young, so Concubine Yao should go back first. I will handle the matters here."

Yin Qingxuan nodded. She didn't want to stay here either, not because she was afraid, but because she didn't want to see that scumbag Ye Jingyao.

"If necessary, you can send someone to Jinwu Palace. I will try my best to assist Concubine Ling."

The two of them bowed to each other and separated.

Ye Jingyu stood in the distance with his hands behind his back. Yin Qingxuan knew that he was waiting for her, so she quickened her pace.

"I asked Concubine Ling to handle this matter. Xuan'er won't be unhappy, right?"

Ye Jingyu asked with side eyes.

Yin Qingxuan smiled crookedly.

"The emperor must be afraid that my concubine will work hard, so he handed this matter over to Concubine Ling."

Ye Jingyu nodded and said: "Xuan'er is indeed smart, that's what I thought. Of course, I also have my own selfish motives."

Yin Qingxuan turned her black and white eyes and asked tentatively: "The emperor doesn't want my concubine to see Ye Jingyao, right?"

Ye Jingyu raised the corners of his mouth slightly. "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I don't want to see him either. If there is nothing else, I will go back to Jinwu Palace."

"Okay, I'm also going to meet with the courtiers from the Ministry of Rites to discuss the funeral. I'll go over to see you later."

"Ah."

Yin Qingxuan responded with lowered eyebrows and took Xiao Anzi and Yuncai back to Jinwu Palace.

Grandma Li was waiting at the door with Xiao Nanfeng in her arms. Suddenly all the familiar people left. The child immediately became unhappy and pointed outside with a flat mouth.

Although there were many new maids and eunuchs in the palace, Nanny Li couldn't believe it, and naturally she didn't dare to take Xiao Nanfeng far away. Especially when the Queen Mother was newly mourned, and all the courtiers came to the palace to express their condolences, no one knew what would happen. Someone sneaked in.

Seeing Yin Qingxuan and the others, they quickly took a few steps.

"Empress, you are finally back."

"What's wrong?" Yin Qingxuan asked.

Nanny Li said with a distressed look on her face: "The child may be looking for you. He has been staying in the palace for a long time, and Bai Xue can't tease him well. The servant dare not go far, so I can only hold him and wait at the gate of the palace. "

Yin Qingxuan reached out to take the child and patted his chubby little butt gently.

"How come you've learned to be clingy?"

Xiao Nanfeng immediately opened his little hands, hugged Yin Qingxuan's neck, flattened his mouth, and shouted aggrievedly: "Nong Niang~"

Looking at Xiao Nanfeng's red eyes, Yin Qingxuan couldn't help but feel guilty. She kissed his little face and said softly: "Don't cry, Xiao Nanfeng. Mommy's little baby is the best. I will stay with you every day from now on." your."

When the child gets older, he knows how to find someone. This is also a good thing, which proves that he already knows that he is his relative.

Xiao Nanfeng seemed to understand, blinking her big black grape-like eyes, and said in a sweet voice: "Good boy~"

"My dear, you are my dearest and most beloved little boy."

Yin Qingxuan smacked her soft little face again, hugged him and said with a smile, "Let's go inside and play with blocks."

"Mumu~" Xiao Nanfeng suddenly raised her butt happily.

Yin Qingxuan couldn't help but sigh, the world of children is so simple. They cry when they are angry and laugh when they are happy. It will be great when adults can do the same!

Thinking of the chaos in the court, Yin Qingxuan felt a headache.

When she first entered the palace, she had thought about killing Ye Jingyu, helping Xiao Nanfeng become the emperor, listening to politics behind the curtain, and getting a feel for the queen. Only now did she realize that the emperor was not someone to be taken lightly.

There are endless political affairs to deal with every day, and it makes my head hurt just thinking about it. If I don’t have good physical strength, I will probably be exhausted.

No wonder many emperors in history were short-lived. This was a truly high-risk profession, and one had to prevent assassination.

Thinking that Ye Jingyu only slept for two hours last night before being called away by Li Defu, Yin Qingxuan felt strangely sympathetic to him.

It was ten minutes before the lights were turned on, but Ye Jingyu didn't come over, so Yin Qingxuan ate by herself without waiting for him.

For the Queen Mother to be buried with state rites, there must be a lot of tedious things to do, which made this old witch an advantage.

It was beautiful when he was alive, and it was not bad even when he died.

Then he thought of the maid called Huaqian, and couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

When she was a eunuch, she heard that Concubine Huan died of bleeding from seven holes, most likely due to poisoning.

But her maid's martial arts skills were so high, why she couldn't save her and then faked her death and escaped. It was really unreasonable!
