The Queen Mother did not take this matter to heart and asked with a deep smile.

"Is that woman here? No matter who she is, as long as you really like her, I can grant you a marriage."

Qi Suian shook his head and smiled faintly, but his tone was extremely firm.

"She is not here, but I will find her."

The Queen Mother nodded in understanding: "Marriage should not be forced. Since you already have a woman you like, I will speak for you."

"Thank you, Queen Mother." Qi Sui'an finally felt relieved.

But after hearing this, Shen Mengyao, who was standing by, felt extremely melancholy.

Now even if I want to numb myself, I can't. The girl named Ali will always be an insurmountable obstacle between them.

She really wanted to meet the woman who looked very similar to herself, to see what kind of person she was. Even if she was not by Qi Suian's side, she would still make him miss her.

"Stand up and talk." The Queen Mother raised her hand.

Outside, a beautiful figure turned around and left angrily.

Lu Rui hurriedly followed in small steps and spoke fearfully.

"Damn, didn't you say you were going to Xingqing Palace to pay respects to the Queen Mother and wait for the Prince? Why aren't you going in again?"

"I didn't expect the Royal Grandmother to help two outsiders." *** narrowed her eyes: "She doesn't love me, her eldest granddaughter, at all."

Lu Rui advised patiently.

"The prince has always been close to the queen mother, so it's normal for the queen mother to love him. But the emperor has already made the decision on this matter and has made it clear that he will stand on your side. Princess, don't worry."

*** narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice: "Now that the Queen Mother is terminally ill, it is inevitable that the Emperor will not listen to her. It would be better if she could not speak."

Looking at the vicious expression on her face, Lu Rui trembled with fear.

"***,you……"

*** snorted coldly: "Leave the palace and go to my brother's house!"

The eldest prince was not at home. The servants in the palace said that the emperor summoned him. It seemed that because of what Ling'er said, the eldest prince was implicated, so he was called to the palace to be reprimanded.

She waited patiently for a while, and Zhang Daozi walked in, flicking his whisk.

"See ***."

*** was also going to meet him, so she said calmly, "Stand up."

She walked to the armchair and sat down steadily.

"The medicine you gave me is very effective. I have used the Queen Mother's illness to fulfill my wishes several times, but this time, the Queen Mother must die."

The cruelty in her eyes was shocking.

Zhang Daozi nodded in appreciation. If a man does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. *** is indeed their best partner.

He pondered for a moment and then said with a smile: "To murder the Queen Mother is a serious crime. You have to find a scapegoat."

"You don't need to remind me of this. I have already thought about it. Princess Shen is in Xingqing Palace now." *** raised her eyes.

Zhang Daozi smiled and said, "Okay, but now is not the best time. Wait a minute."

"Then how long do we have to wait?" *** asked with a frown.

Zhang Daozi thought for a moment and said with a smile: "Family affairs, national affairs, world affairs, everything is known. Sometimes you think it is just a matter within the harem, but in fact, it even concerns the previous dynasty."

*** frowned: "I don't understand what you said, nor do I want to understand it, but if I don't get rid of the Royal Grandmother, my wish will eventually come to nothing."

"Don't worry, I won't keep you waiting too long." Zhang Daozi lowered his head with an unfathomable expression.

*** picked up the teacup next to him.

"Okay, I'll believe you."

They all remained silent, but waited silently for the eldest prince.

About half an hour later, the eldest prince came back angrily. He dared to vent his anger only when he got back to the mansion. He smashed a vase in front of the door.

"You bastard, I'll let you know how powerful I am sooner or later."

"The eldest prince." Zhang Daozi reminded.

The eldest prince frowned and walked in quickly. The moment he saw ***, the expression on his face was not so ugly anymore.

"Shaohua, why are you here?"

*** smiled faintly: "Actually, it is because of this matter that I want to discuss it with you."

The eldest prince glanced at Zhang Daozi and his tone became much calmer.

"The matter has come to this point, what else do you want to do?"

Zhang Daozi took the initiative to tell ***'s plan.

The eldest prince frowned and said, "But if this happens, Meng Yao will suffer greatly."

"I can't care so much now, my brother, I have whatever beauty you want."

"But Mengyao is different after all." The eldest prince was a little skeptical.

*** was almost going crazy, screaming heartbreakingly.

"What's so good about that woman that you two are so obsessed with her?"

The eldest prince sighed and comforted her.

"Shaohua."

Zhang Daozi looked at him, and the meaning in his eyes could not be more obvious.

The eldest prince knew that between a woman and the country, he could only choose one.

Shen Mengyao is from the Duke's Mansion. If there is a problem with her, Duke Shen's crime will be more serious. He knows which is more serious.

"Shaohua, where is my brother? I value you the most. You are my brother's only sister. Don't worry, we have to think about this matter carefully."

***'s face turned from cloudy to sunny and the tears disappeared.

"Thank you, Brother Emperor."

The three of them walked into the study and plotted the matter.

In Xingqing Palace, the Queen Mother became tired after talking for a while and asked everyone to leave.

"Fuqing, help me to the couch and have a rest."

Fu Qing immediately supported the empress dowager and slowly walked behind the curtain.

Shen Mengyao accompanied Qi Suian out, and the two stood outside the palace. Because the empress dowager was recuperating, there were few people in Xingqing Palace and it was very quiet.

Qi Sui'an stopped, looked back at her, his eyes filled with tenderness at this moment.

"Thank you."

Shen Mengyao smiled lightly and said calmly, "You're welcome. Your Majesty has helped me a lot. It's my duty to help Your Majesty."

When Qi Sui'an heard that she was still so distant to him, he couldn't help feeling melancholy and sad, but he quickly composed himself, put on a stern face, and became the majestic and stern regent again.

"Are you leaving the palace today? The king would like to treat you to a meal to express his gratitude."

"Chef Li has spoiled my appetite a long time ago." Shen Mengyao chuckled and made a joke.

"If you are willing, I will treat you to a meal in Shuiyunjian." Qi Sui'an said with a little anticipation.

Shen Mengyao shook her head and said, "Forget it. The Queen Mother's condition has not improved. I am worried. I want to serve her in the palace until she gets better."
