The queen asked Xiliu to ask the queen mother to let her go to see the emperor.

But the Queen Mother considered that the Queen's confinement had not yet been lifted.

If she went to ask the emperor directly, she might make the emperor even more angry.

So, she came forward to beg the emperor herself.

When Emperor Qin Jingyan heard that the Queen Mother was coming, he hurriedly got up and went out to greet her.

Queen Mother Feng Shuying walked in supported by two palace ladies.

"Greetings to the Queen Mother."

The emperor bowed respectfully.

"Get up."

The Queen Mother raised her hand.

The emperor stretched out his hand to support her and sat down at the head of the palace.

He stood beside her.

Seeing the Queen Mother coming, Qin Luo's tense nerves relaxed.

Every time he made a mistake, as long as the emperor's grandmother came forward, his father would take it easy in the end.

This time, Liu Xinyue died, which was really not a big deal.

The imperial grandmother was willing to intercede for him, so he no longer had to worry.

Thinking this, he relaxed.

"Sir, please kneel down for me."

The emperor glared at him and said angrily.

Qin Luo was frightened, straightened his back and knelt on the ground.

Queen Mother Feng Shuying could not help but frown and spoke in a deep voice,

"Emperor, are you dissatisfied with the Aijia?"

Qin Jingyan hurriedly bowed,

"I don't dare."

The Queen Mother sighed,

"The Ai family doesn't want to interfere with your decision-making."

"I'm old and can't control you anymore."

"It's just that you have few heirs. If you really punish Luo'er this time, how will you choose the future heir apparent?"

The emperor couldn't help but frown after hearing this.

He has only a few heirs, isn't it thanks to Feng Miaoxue?

Queen Mother Feng Shuying saw that the emperor's face was not very good-looking, so she softened her tone and said,

"Then Liu Xinyue is a criminal who deceived the emperor, and his crime should be punished."

"She has known since she was a child that she is not Fang Guogong's biological daughter."

"But she and her biological mother deceived everyone, and even deceived His Majesty. Shouldn't she be killed?"

"From the Yi Ai family's perspective, Luo'er killing her is a real pleasure."

The emperor was speechless when he heard the Queen Mother's strong words.

The queen mother has always protected Qin Luo, and he currently has no better candidate for the crown prince.

It seems that he can only maintain Qin Luo's image in the hearts of the people.

Otherwise, it's not just the royal family that will be embarrassed.

It may even shake the Qin family's imperial power.

He really should find a good reason for Qin Luo to kill Fang Xinyue.

Even if he was reluctant, he had to admit that he didn't have many choices.

His princes were pitifully few.

In addition to Qin Luo, there is also a sixteen-year-old An Wang Qin Yuze who was born to a concubine De.

However, he was frail and sickly, and usually lived in peace with the world.

There is also King Hui Qin Ziyan, who is only five years old and born to Concubine Gao.

King Hui, although smart, is too young.

Perhaps Qin Luo is the most suitable person who can take on the important role of crown prince.

Now he dare not rashly cut off Qin Luo's foundation as the crown prince.

However, he has not yet made up his mind to let Qin Luo be the crown prince.

Because Qin Luo's daily behavior disappointed him so much.

Perhaps, if he waits a little longer, An Wang's body will recover.

Or, if you wait a few more years, King Hui will grow up.

Or maybe, in another two years, he will add a few more princes to his harem, which is also unknown.

At that time, he will have more choices.

But now, he had to give in.

With this in mind, he looked at the Queen Mother and spoke respectfully,

"Please tell me what my son should do."

When the Queen Mother heard the emperor's question, she couldn't help but nodded happily.

"Your Majesty, please post a notice to inform the world."

"Explain in detail all the evil deeds Liu Xinyue has done in the past."

"He also stated that His Majesty also wanted to accuse Liu Xinyue, but Prince Gong killed her first on impulse."

"Although his behavior was a bit extreme, Liu Xinyue did not regret his death."

"Then, Your Majesty will give Prince Gong a little punishment to appease the people."

After hearing this, the emperor felt that Qin Luo was a little too indulgent, but there was no better way.

So, he bowed to the Queen Mother,

"Listen to your mother's arrangements."

The Queen Mother finally felt relieved.

She nodded, stood up and walked towards Qin Luo.

Qin Luo knelt on the ground and kowtowed to her.

"Thank you, Grandma Royal."

The Queen Mother looked serious,

"Luo'er, you know you are wrong."

"My grandson knows his mistake."

Qin Luo nodded repeatedly,

"I won't dare to do it again next time."

The emperor's face sank when he heard this.

"Do you dare to have a next time?"

"If there is another time, you will pay for it with your life."

"Children don't dare."

Qin Luo leaned over and lay on the ground.

The emperor still had a straight face,

"I will punish you with a one-month ban and a year's salary."

"Thank you, Father."

Qin Luo replied, feeling proud.

The imperial grandmother's intercession on her behalf worked.

This punishment is too light.

His family doesn't just rely on his salary to live, the real source of income is his own property.

It's just that being confined for a month and being trapped in the palace will be more boring.

The emperor snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves,

"Go back to your Prince Gong's mansion."

"Yes."

Qin Luo stood up and lowered his head, very respectfully.

The Queen Mother waved to him.

"Luo'er, help the Ai family back to Cining Palace first."

"Yes, Imperial Grandmother."

Qin Luo stepped forward and helped her out.

Emperor Qin Jingyan couldn't help but sigh deeply as he watched the two people leaving.

Ugh!

How great would it be if I could have a few more princes?

With this thought in mind, he returned to the desk and sat down a little lonely, and was stunned for a while.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Yang would like to see you."

A eunuch came in respectfully to report.

The emperor came to his senses,

"Xuan."

"Yes."

The eunuch retreated.

Soon, Yang Furong walked in with a bowl of rock sugar snow pear.

"I see you, Your Majesty."

She bowed and bowed.

"No gift."

The emperor rubbed his eyebrows, the look of loneliness still on his face.

Yang Furong could see the emperor's unhappiness at a glance.

Qin Luo killed people in public with cruel and stupid methods.

It is simply difficult for a person like him to hold a big position.

But the emperor was on his knees and had few heirs.

In comparison, only Qin Luo is more suitable to be the crown prince.

"Your Majesty, you have so many things to do all day long, so don't be exhausted."

Yang Furong said softly and walked forward,

"My concubine has prepared rock sugar pear for you. You can use some to moisten your throat."

"Well, my beloved concubine is interested."

The emperor nodded, took a sip of the soup in a dignified manner, and nodded,

“It’s sweet in the mouth, not bad.”

Yang Furong chuckled and stepped forward to squeeze his shoulders.

The emperor reached out and patted the back of Yang Furong's hand.

"You are still considerate."

"I, my concubine, am stupid and cannot help His Majesty in any other way."

"I can only think about serving His Majesty well and making His Majesty feel better."

The emperor slowly closed his eyes and took a long breath,

"very good."

Yang Furong did not answer, but continued to squeeze the emperor's shoulders.

After a while, the emperor suddenly asked,

"Am I getting old?"
