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

"My Lady Concubine, I just saw you meeting our future queen. What do you think?"

Concubine Jing looked down at the exquisite armor on her hands and said calmly, "The queen chosen by the emperor and the queen mother is naturally excellent. The emperor is finally willing to establish a queen, which is a blessing for our country, Dashang."

Princess Dongping stared at Concubine Jing, trying to see how her expression changed. Unfortunately, she was disappointed, as Concubine Jing's expression did not change much.

They are wild at heart!

Princess Dongping would not believe what Concubine Jing said. She herself doesn't believe it, right?

She had a guess.

The reason why Concubine Jing and Prince Chen were slow to act was that they were waiting for their own prince to take action. They also wanted to reap the benefits like the prince wanted.

Of course, Concubine Jing knew what Princess Dongping was testing. They had already given Nan Yan a sterilizing soup and were not worried at all about Nan Yan becoming the queen.

the other side.

Liu Ruxu leaned close to Nan Yan's ear, looked in the direction of Concubine Jing, and said in a voice that only Nan Yan could hear: "I didn't expect Concubine Jing to be so beautiful. She must be forty years old now! I wonder how beautiful she must have been when she was young."

After a short pause, she continued, "But why do I feel a little uncomfortable when I see her smiling?"

Nan Yan smiled and said that it was normal to feel uncomfortable, after all, she was smiling with a knife in her heart.

"And Prince Xuan, he's so handsome! I feel a little ashamed of myself when I see him."

Nan Yan tilted her head, raised her eyebrows and asked teasingly: "Why? Are you in love with him?"

Liu Ruxu clenched her fist, hit Nan Yan lightly, and said unhappily: "What are you talking about! I am just admiring you, okay? I have..."

She stopped talking in time and stepped away guiltily.

Nan Yan leaned over and deliberately asked, "What do you have?"

"Nothing, nothing..." Liu Ruxu sat up straight in a panic and coughed lightly, expressing her panic to the fullest.

Nan Yan pretended not to know and did not ask any further questions.

Liu Ruxu also suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

The banquet was about to begin and everyone sat in their seats.

"The Queen Mother and the Emperor have arrived~"

As the eunuchs shouted, everyone knelt down to pay their respects, except those who didn't need to kneel and bowed. "Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Long live the Emperor, and long live the Empress Dowager."

After Shang Yue and the Queen Mother sat at the top, a voice as mellow as wine came out, "Stand up."

Nan Yan stood up with everyone else and sat back in her seat.

The moment she sat down, she looked up, and the person at the table was also looking at her, and as expected, their eyes met. She smiled slightly and blinked mischievously.

Shang Yuan, who was standing below Shang Yue, looked slightly deep, touched his upper palate with his tongue, and suddenly smiled softly.

What a beautiful smile! Unfortunately, it wasn't directed at him.

The corners of Shang Yue's mouth curved up quickly, and then quickly disappeared. No one saw it except Nan Yan.

Thinking that he would be able to sit together with Nan Yan next year instead of having to look at each other from afar, Shang Yue felt excited and wished that time would go faster.

The banquet began and musicians and dancers entered the hall one after another.

Everyone was chatting and drinking, and it was quite lively for a while.

Concubine Jing, who was sitting below the Queen Mother, stood up with her wine glass in hand and walked towards the Queen Mother, "Sister, I haven't seen you for a year. I am glad to see that you are in good health and the Emperor has chosen a Queen. I am really happy for you. I'll toast to you."

The Queen Mother did not refuse Concubine Jing's face. She picked up the wine glass, smiled, clinked glasses with Concubine Jing, and drank it all in one gulp.

No one in the harem is a good person. The Queen Mother knew what Concubine Jing had done behind her back, but she had too many scapegoats and could not find any evidence.

In the eyes of the Queen Mother, Concubine Jing was a venomous snake waiting for an opportunity to strike.

Fortunately, Yue'er had already sent people to secretly protect Yan'er.

"Xu'er, come here quickly."

Shang Shixu, who was sitting upright enjoying the singing and dancing, heard his grandmother's voice, stood up and walked step by step to Concubine Jing. The little guy was very well-behaved.

"Xu'er, you should also use tea instead of wine to toast the Imperial Grandmother."

Shang Shixu had been to the capital once last year, but he was too young to remember much and had no impression of the empress dowager. However, he still listened to Concubine Jing's words and took the teacup from the maid.

"Grandmother, I pay my respects to you. I wish you great fortune and a long life."

After all, he is a child with a pure heart. Moreover, he has been taught to be very polite and sensible. The Queen Mother still likes him very much.

"Grandmother, thank you for Xu'er's blessing. Xu'er is really well-behaved and sensible."

"Thank you for the compliment, Grandmother."

When her grandson was praised, the smile on Concubine Jing's face became more genuine.

Seeing the envy rising in the Queen Mother's eyes, she flashed a glimmer of pride and said, "Sister, there is no need to be envious. When the Emperor and Miss Nan get married, I will give you a smart grandson next year."

Regardless of whether what Concubine Jing said was true or false, the Empress Dowager felt comfortable listening to it.

"I will accept your good words." Yue'er and Yan'er are so outstanding in appearance, I wonder how beautiful the child they give birth to will be.

Seeing the Queen Mother's face full of longing, Concubine Jing couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Old man, you will never have grandchildren in your life.

Jing Zhizhi noticed that King Chen's gaze turned towards Nan Yan several times. He stared at Nan Yan, and the anger in his heart was rising.

This Nan Yan is really restless. I really want to scratch her vixen face.

Nan Yan didn't eat much at the banquet.

The main reason was that by the time the palace maids brought the food to us, it was no longer in its best taste. Plus, with so many people in the palace, we could only take a bite occasionally and then enjoy the performance.

After a few bites, the meal had gone cold and the taste had changed.

After the banquet, Nan Yan saw Shang Yue making a gesture to her. She understood it immediately and nodded at him.

When Nan Yan walked to the palace gate, she happened to bump into Concubine Jing and others.

She noticed someone approaching her, and when she turned her head, she saw it was Princess Chen, Jing Zhizhi.

This Jing Zhizhi looked pretty, but she didn't know what was wrong with her. She had been glaring at her all day.

Jing Zhizhi came over and whispered pointedly, "Miss Nan, some people should behave themselves after they are engaged. Don't seduce others just because you are pretty. You will get your comeuppance sooner or later."

Nan Yan's face darkened.

Oh! She won't say anything about King Chen again, will she?

She sneered, "What are you talking about, Princess Chen? I like the most powerful man in the world, Your Majesty. Not everyone can catch my eye."

Then he ignored Jing Zhizhi's unhappy expression and turned away.

Back at the Prime Minister's Mansion, the servants skillfully brought the prepared meals to the living room.

Ruan Yurou: "Everyone, hurry up and pick up your chopsticks! You haven't eaten much since this afternoon, you must be very hungry."

After finishing the meal, Nan Yan stood up and said to Nan Hui and Ruan Yurou, "Dad and Mom, I'm a little sleepy. I'm going back to the yard to rest first."

Ruan Yurou felt sorry for Nan Yan when she saw the obvious fatigue on her face, so she did not force her to stay up till the New Year's Eve.

"Okay, go back and rest early!"
