The children all dispersed and returned to their mother's palace.

Except for Chengxuan, one person and the young eunuch were preparing to go around the imperial garden and return to Mingxu Hall, but they met a familiar figure at the corner, "My son, please give your regards to Empress Qiao."

Chengxuan respectfully saluted Qiao Cairen in front of him.

"Xuan'er, what do you call concubine?" Qiao Cairen didn't know when his son started to be so strange to him.

"Empress Qiao." Chengxuan called again.

Qiao Cairen's heart was broken long ago. He knelt on the ground and grabbed Chengxuan's arms with both hands. "Xuan'er, I am the mother-in-law. The mother-in-law who gave birth to you and raised you, do you really not remember it?"

Qiao Cairen didn't believe anything he said. Chengxuan was almost three years old when he left her, which is the age when he can remember things. How could he not remember him?

"I remember." Chengxuan said, and subconsciously took two steps back, "But now that I am no longer under the care of Empress Qiao, I can only call you Empress Qiao, and the queen will also find a new wife for me." My mother-in-law, please take care of yourself, I still have homework to do, so I will leave first."

"Chengxuan." Qiao Cairen hugged Chengxuan directly from behind, "Are you also dissatisfied with the low status of the mother-in-law and wanted the mother-in-law to go up a little and take you back? That's why you deliberately talked to the mother-in-law. Unfamiliar?"

Tears flowed down her cheeks uncontrollably. What happened to her son, who had been raised to such an old age?

"My son, I don't mean that. As long as Empress Qiao is safe, it will be fine." Chengxuan broke away from Qiao Cairen's arms and ran back to Mingxu Hall.

"Caiju, tell me, Xuan'er, why can he do this to me?" Qiao Jieyu was such a proud person that she shed tears silently in the cold wind of the imperial garden.

"Little Master, how old is my little Master? He can be naughty for a while, so don't take it to heart." Caiju advised slowly from the side, but tears kept falling down.

The two young masters are gone, and His Highness the Fourth Prince is the young master’s only hope, but now...

"It's been so long, Caiju, I really don't know what to do. Now there are so many newcomers in the palace. If one of them climbs up, wouldn't Chengxuan have to go to someone else's palace? ?" The more Qiao Cairen thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, but now that he has no family background, what should he do?

The moon hung high in the night sky, and the candles in the Yangxin Hall were burning quietly.

Accompanied by candlelight, Emperor Yinde Shen Yuchen finished processing the last memorial of the day.

Li Fuhai duly handed over a cup of warm tea. Emperor Yin De took it and took a sip. "After tomorrow's morning court, the Prime Minister, the Minister of Rites, and the Minister of Rites will come to the Yangxin Hall to discuss matters."

"Yes." Li Fuhai responded respectfully and waved to the young eunuch who had been waiting outside for a long time.

"No need." Emperor Yinde gently placed the tea cup on the imperial desk, "I'm going to see the queen."

Normally at this time, Li Fuhai would have dismissed the young eunuch in the service room, but at this time, he was a little embarrassed.

"Your Majesty, the Queen has not returned from Huayang Palace yet. You..."

"Is Yuan'er's cold so serious?" Emperor Yin De heard that Cheng Yuan had cold, but there were many memorials today and he didn't have time to ask.

"I only heard that Wu Yuanping stayed in Huayang Palace for a long time in the morning."

Before Li Fuhai finished speaking, he saw Emperor Yin De already standing up, "Go to Huayang Palace."

Luan Jia was walking slowly in the imperial garden. Emperor Yin De sat in the Luan Jia with his eyes closed and resting. He rubbed his temples tiredly. Emperor Yin De opened his eyes and saw a vague figure kneeling not far away. He thought it was Which little palace maid was punished by her master, and when she got closer, she discovered that it was Sun Cairen.

Sun Cairen had been kneeling in the cold wind for a whole day, and she almost felt stupid on her knees, but she did not dare to get up without Queen Su Qingyao's instructions.

"I send my regards to your majesty, may your majesty be blessed with peace and prosperity." Sun Cairen stiffly kowtowed to Emperor Yinde.

Emperor Yinde didn't know what was going on, so he turned his head and looked at Li Fuhai.

Li Fuhai stood with his head bowed respectfully. It was obvious that he didn't know anything.

Does he really not know? It's just a cover-up.

The Queen is really good at finding places. She just sent a message asking him to try his best to let His Majesty go to Huayang Palace tonight. If he has anything to do, he can ask Your Majesty.

What Li Fuhai said was vague, but now that he sees Sun Cairen, he understands everything.

Logically speaking, it is difficult for the Queen to deal with a small talent, so why do you ask Your Majesty?

"Why are you kneeling here?" There was no emotion in Emperor Yinde's tone. Sun Cairen was already aggrieved after kneeling for so long. Meeting Emperor Yinde now was just the right time to make Emperor Yinde pity her.

"Your Majesty, it's the Queen who asked me to..." Before she could finish her words, tears started to fall down.

Emperor Yinde didn't hear anything clearly. He only heard the words "Empress and Empress" and gave Li Fuhai a wink.

Li Fuhai bowed and retreated, then trotted back after a while and whispered something in Emperor Yin De's ear.

"How presumptuous! Is this how you criticize the Queen in front of the Queen?" Emperor Yin De scolded sternly after hearing Li Fuhai's report.

Sun Cairen originally wanted to ask His Majesty to speak for him, but to his surprise, His Majesty poured cold water on him.

"No, Your Majesty, I just heard..."

"Who said that?"

Seeing that Sun Cairen didn't reply, Emperor Yin De sneered, "It's the Queen who is lenient after all. You can't do anything wrong here."

"Since you haven't calmed down yet, then go to the cold palace and calm down."

Emperor Yinde's golden words made Sun Cairen directly become Sun Shuren.

This was also the effect Su Qingyao wanted most. Since Sun Cairen said he was afraid of her, let others see what would happen if His Majesty handled it.

The next day, after Su Qingyao sent Emperor Yinde off to the morning court, he took out a confession directly in his bedroom.

That was the evidence that Xiao Xizi left behind three years ago about Sun Shuren's murder of the emperor's heir.

It's not that Su Qingyao can't tolerate others being favored, nor can she tolerate others doing evil, but if the matter concerns her and her children, I'm afraid it won't pass so easily.

Just like Sun Shuren, why didn't Su Qingyao directly touch her with this piece of evidence? Wasn't it because he wanted to give her one more chance?

Since Sun Shuren doesn't want to live so much, let's just send her on her way.

Su Qingyao handed the confession in her hand to Xiao Xiazi, "When night falls, go to the cold palace and ask the common man Sun whether he wants to die himself or his family."

"The slave obeys the order."

Sun Shuren did not expect that the Queen had already caught him three years ago, so what chance did he have to survive?

He could only end his life with a piece of white silk.
