With the system traveling through time, the queen always becomes a mother painlessly

"Mother, please don't underestimate yourself. You are a role model for women in our Shang Dynasty. Intelligence is just one of your merits that is not worth mentioning."

Nan Yan praised the Queen Mother not just to maintain a good relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, the Queen Mother is indeed a very good person. Even though she had suffered so many calculations in the harem before, she was still as kind and beautiful as ever.

The Queen Mother was so happy that her eyes wrinkled a lot. She waved her hands and said, "Oh, no more, no more. If you keep praising me like this, I will fly to the sky."

Nan Yan stopped praising the Queen Mother and was very smart not to bring up the original topic.

After seeing off the Queen Mother, Le Xuan and Le Ci, who were there to pick up their brother and sister, as well as Le Yu and Le Zhi, who were also picked up by them, returned together.

The little guys all had wrinkled faces, like four bitter gourds.

Nan Yan looked at Le Yu and Le Zhi, "What's wrong with you? Why do you all look like eggplants hit by frost?"

Then he looked at the two particularly well-behaved little guys who were being held by their royal brother and sister.

"And Le Xuan and Le Ci, weren't you two so happy when you went out? Why are you like this when you came back?"

The two little guys didn't say anything and looked at their royal brother and sister.

Le Zhi looked at her mother, tears glistening in her eyes, and she said in a hoarse voice, "Mother, has something happened to my father?"

Nan Yan's face darkened. She didn't expect that both children knew about this.

It seems that there are many gossipers in the palace. It's time to take advantage of this opportunity to clean up some of them.

The children saw her reaction and thought what they heard was true. Their faces turned pale instantly and tears fell down.

Although Le Yu did not shed tears, his eyes were red.

Le Zhi cried and threw herself into Nan Yan's arms, "Wuwuwu~ Mother, I want to go to the border, I want to find my father."

Her sudden action brought Nan Yan back to her senses. Nan Yan subconsciously hugged her daughter and heard her say these words the next second.

Then the two little ones ran over, one on each side, hugged her legs and started crying.

"Mother, I want my father, I want my father..."

"Wuwuwu~ I want my father..."

Nan Yan was stunned at first, and then looked at the three children hanging on her body and crying, as well as Le Yu, who had red eyes and bit his lips tightly to prevent tears from falling.

He quickly said, "Stop crying, your father is fine."

Oh! After comforting the older one, it’s time to comfort the younger one.

Lezhi and the others let go of Nanyan, with tears still on her face, "Really?"

"Really? Why would Mother lie to you?"

Nan Yan took out a handkerchief and wiped away the tears from the faces of several children.

They believed Nan Yan's words without a doubt.

Le Zhi said angrily, "Father is fine, but those palace servants said that Father was missing. They should be punished."

When she first heard the news that her father had an accident, she was heartbroken.

"Okay, mother will definitely punish those who gossip. You are so bold to make up stories about your father."

Lezhi nodded repeatedly.

After they finished talking, Le Yu at the side asked, "Mother, why did you look so unhappy when you heard us ask if something happened to our father?"

As a little guy who was trained to be an emperor, he is very good at grasping people's emotions at a young age, has strong logical thinking, and will not be easily circumvented.

Just like this time, after hearing what Nan Yan said, Le Zhi had forgotten her abnormal reaction just now, only Le Yu remembered it.

After hearing what Le Yu said, Le Zhi immediately remembered that her mother's reaction just now was indeed very abnormal.

She raised her puzzled face and said, "Yes, mother, since father is fine, why did you react so strangely just now?"

Nan Yan sighed in her heart. It was becoming increasingly difficult to fool her son.

"My mother was just angry when she heard someone in the palace spread rumors about your father."

Lezhi: “So that’s how it is.”

Nan Yan was relieved to see that her son also believed it, otherwise she wouldn't know how to make up the story.

"Okay, let's stop thinking about these unfounded things and have lunch quickly. You still need to rest later!"

After lunch, when she watched the children go back to the hall to rest, Nan Yan finally had some free time. She lay on the bed pretending to rest, but in fact she was talking to the system.

"Tongzi, what happened? How did the news of Ayue's disappearance get out?"

[Host, wait a minute. I'll go check.]

"it is good."

Soon, the system's voice sounded, [Host, according to my investigation, it was Shang Yuan who sent someone to release this news.]

"Shang Yuan?"

Nan Yan murmured to herself, she was surprised but not so surprised by this result.

In recent years, when Shang Yuan returned to the capital, he occasionally looked at A Yue with extremely cruel eyes, and a subtle hatred. If eyes could kill, Nan Yan felt that Shang Yue would have been executed by slow slicing long ago.

But she was surprised how Shang Yuan knew about A Yue's disappearance. Could it be that there were people from Shang Yuan at the border?

It wouldn't be surprising if there was. As a prince, it would be easier for him to arrange his own people there.

He must have done this for the throne.

But did he know that his actions might cause turmoil in the court?

If it causes internal and external troubles, no matter how powerful A Yue is, he will be no match for four people!

Suddenly thinking of something, Nan Yan's face changed drastically, "Could it be that Shang Yuan is colluding with the Yuan Dynasty?"

That's why I knew about A Yue's disappearance.

"Tongzi, am I right?"

After a minute of silence, the system investigation came back, [The host guessed correctly, Shang Yuan did collude with Yuan Anchen, and he also played a role in Shang Yue's assassination. ]

Nan Yan's face turned grim. She knew Shang Yuan was not a good person from the first sight. She didn't expect that he would collude with the enemy country.

In the afternoon, Nan Yan had the palace servants who were gossiping in the palace arrested. Most of them were spies from the enemy country, and some of them were bewitched by them.

Nan Yan drove them all out of the palace.

This time we took the opportunity to drive away many spies.

When the other spies saw that these people were exposed, they kept quiet all day long for fear of being discovered.

However, Nan Yan learned from the system that there were spies in various places in the palace, but she was afraid of alerting the enemy, so she did not drive them away explicitly.

They are so self-righteous that they think Nan Yan doesn’t know!

Because of the rumors, the thresholds of the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Grand Tutor's Mansion were almost trampled down all afternoon.
