Yao's mother and daughter entered Shangchun Garden and met Xie Jinyun.

The mother and daughter were still deeply shocked by the majesty of Queen Xie Jinyun.

The two men hurried forward to pay their respects. Xie Jinyun said, "No need for formalities," and asked them to sit down and talk.

Xie Jinyun didn't want to beat around the bush with Yao and Su Qingcheng, so after they sat down, Xie Jinyun took the initiative to ask, "I wonder what Third Aunt is doing with Cousin Qingcheng outside the garden? My guards said that Third Aunt and Cousin Qingcheng have been strolling outside the garden for a long time."

Yao was not polite at all. She took Su Qingcheng and stood up and walked towards Xie Jinyun, showing off her status as Xie Jinyun's aunt.

Bailu and Huaxi quickly walked forward and stopped Yao, preventing her from getting too close to the queen.

Seeing this, Yao was startled and stepped back, saying with a smile, "Being the queen is different now, be careful and be precious."

"Don't be surprised, Third Aunt. This is the rule of the palace and the palace servants also follow the rules. If you have anything to say, you might as well tell me directly." Xie Jinyun said.

Seeing that Xie Jinyun not only did not scold the palace maids, but instead used the rules to make a fuss, Yao's smile faded a little, she stepped back, then turned around and pushed Su Qingcheng in front of her, saying, "Aunt, out of sympathy for your pregnancy, I brought Qingcheng to Yanjing specifically, hoping that the Queen would bring her into the palace, take care of you, help you serve the Emperor, and consolidate your position as the Empress."

Nanny Yuan frowned immediately.

Su Qingcheng lowered her head shyly, waiting for Xie Jinyun to nod and take her into the palace.

But what she waited for was Xie Jinyun's two words: "No need."

Su Qingcheng's face suddenly changed, and she subconsciously looked up at Xie Jinyun, speechless.

Yao was also confused.

She thought that the queen would not refuse a woman from her own family to enter the palace to help her consolidate her position.

Who knew that Xie Jinyun would refuse it outright.

This made Yao stunned for a moment.

It was Su Qingcheng who reacted first.

She said anxiously, "Cousin Queen, I will not compete with you for the emperor. As long as you need me, I will help you serve the emperor, and I will never take away a bit of the emperor's love from cousin Queen."

Xie Jinyun asked calmly, "If you don't want to take away the emperor's love, then why do you want to enter the palace? Women who stay in the harem don't even have their hearts on the emperor, so how can they serve him wholeheartedly? It can be seen that cousin Qingcheng doesn't really want to enter the palace to serve the emperor."

The words that Su Qingcheng was about to say were "beaten" back.

No, what she wanted to express was not what the Queen said.

"Cousin Queen, you misunderstood. Qingcheng meant... After Qingcheng entered the palace, she put cousin Queen first in everything. As long as cousin Queen told me to go east, I would never dare to go west. As the emperor's woman, I must serve him with my best heart." Su Qingcheng explained.

Xie Jinyun shook her head again, frowned and said, "No, when you enter the harem, you should put the emperor first in everything, not me. I am the queen, and I also put the emperor first. If you enter the harem with this kind of thinking, it will be difficult for you to take on the responsibility of serving the emperor."

When Su Qingcheng heard this, how could she not understand Xie Jinyun's repeated attempts to stop her?

It sounds so high-sounding, isn't it just jealousy?

Su Qingcheng was a little anxious: "Queen, what do you mean?"

Very good, you know how to ask her such a question.

Xie Jinyun stared straight at Su Qingcheng and said, "If you want to enter the palace to serve the emperor, you don't have to make excuses to me. Now I'm telling you, you'd better choose a suitable husband as soon as possible and stop worrying about the harem."

"Aren't you afraid that people in the world will say that you are a jealous woman?" Su Qingcheng clenched her handkerchief and asked back.
