Yu Youniang only discovered at the age of five that her mother was actually the true daughter of the Yong'an Marquis Estate, who had been separated from them for over twenty years.

Chapter 264 The Supervisor Said He Wanted to Live Longer
Seeing that Marshal Wen was frowning and looking worried, Wen Shiyan consoled him, "Dad, don't worry so much. Our emperor is wise. He must have received news of such a big event before. He must have a plan in mind about what to do. We just need to wait."
That's true, but...
Marshal Wen glared at Wen Shiyan, "How do you talk like that? What are you talking about? He, he, his? He's the emperor, so be respectful when you speak. Be careful if someone hears you, or I'll sue you for disrespect."
“This is in our own home…”
Before Wen Shiyan could finish his defense, he saw that Marshal Wen had already glared at him.
Being stared at by Marshal Wen, Wen Shiyan surrendered instantly.
"Dad! I was wrong! I won't say that again next time!"
Marshal Wen glared again, "Will there be a next time?"
"No!" Wen Shiyan promised firmly, "There will definitely not be a next time!"
Seeing him like this, Marshal Wen was finally satisfied.
"There will be a celebration banquet tomorrow, you should all go together!" said Marshal Wen.
In fact, the two of them were going to go even without Marshal Wen’s instructions.
On the other side, Yu Youning had no idea what the three of them were talking about in the room.
She was playing with Wen Xiaotian in the shade when she suddenly heard Chu Huaixu's voice.
At first, Yu Youning thought he had heard it wrong.
But soon, Chu Huaixu appeared in front of her.
"A Xu?"
Yu Youning looked at Chu Huaixu strangely, "Why are you here?"
Didn’t they just meet?
Why is Chu Huaixu here again so soon?
"My father asked me to pick you up." Chu Huaixu explained.
"The Emperor asked you to come?" Yu Youning was even more puzzled. "Why did the Emperor ask you to come to see me? Is there something wrong?"
"Yes." Chu Huaixu nodded, "The Supervisor wants to see you."
"Jian Zheng?"
Seeing the confusion on Yu Youning's face, Chu Huaixu thought that Yu Youning had forgotten who the Supervisor was.
"That's the one who helped Lin Ruoli steal her fate..."
Before he could finish, Yu Youning nodded, "I know it's him! I'm just a little confused. Why did she look for me?"
Chu Huaixu shook his head. "I don't know why he wants to see you. I asked someone, but he didn't say anything. He just said he wanted to see you first. After discussing it with my father, I came to ask for your opinion. If you are willing to see him, we will meet. If you don't want to see him, then we won't meet him."
"Yes!" Yu Youning answered very straightforwardly, "Since he wants to see me, then let's meet him!"
She was also very curious about why the Supervisor—
etc!
Could it be that the Supervisor already knew about Tuoba Ruoli's affairs?
Thinking this in his mind, when he really met the Supervisor, Yu Youning asked directly.
"You want to see me because of Tuoba Ruoli?"
After not seeing him for a few months, the supervisor looked even older.
He used to have white hair and beard, but he looked like an immortal.
But the current supervisor's hair and beard are not pure white, but grayish white, and look dull.
My skin used to be elastic and I didn’t have many wrinkles.
But now the skin exposed outside looks like old bark.
Such an old man sat there quietly with his eyes closed. It didn't look like he was asleep, but rather like he was dead.
Yu Youning looked at Chu Huaixu, "What's wrong with him?"
Chu Huaixu also frowned and was about to speak when he saw the supervisor suddenly raised his head and looked at the two of them.
The warden opened his eyes, and his gaze looked a little cloudy.
"Your Highness, Youning, you are here!"
"It's great that I can still see you!"
"After a walk around, you all seem to have grown a lot. It seems that getting out more often is beneficial."
Chu Huaixu frowned, a little impatient, "Why do you want to see us?"
The Supervisor shook his head and said, "Your Highness, you are wrong. I don't want to see you. I just want to see Youning. It's because Your Highness is worried that you followed me here."
After hearing what the Supervisor said, Chu Huaixu's expression became even uglier.
In the past, he would have been in the mood to listen to the warden's mysterious words.
But now, I am not in the mood at all.
Chu Huaixu frowned, "If you have nothing else to do, we'll leave."
"Your Highness, please stay!"
The supervisor's voice was a little louder than before, and he sat up straighter.
"Tuoba Ruoli has already arrived in the capital, and Qiongqi came with him, right?"
Hearing this, Chu Huaixu's pupils suddenly constricted, "How did you know?"
No one would ever tell the supervisor about such a thing.
The warden smiled slightly and pointed to the window, "I saw it."
The windows are only opened at night, and there will be someone guarding outside to make it convenient for the supervisor to watch the stars.
What the Supervisor said he saw was not that he saw Tuoba Ruoli and Qiongqi with his own eyes, but that he saw the changes in the starry sky.
Chu Huaixu's expression became a little complicated.
In addition to stealing Yu Youning's fate, Jian Zheng has done a lot of good things over the years.
Even he couldn't deny everything he had done before just because the supervisor did something wrong.
Chu Huaixu looked straight at the Supervisor and said, "Let me ask you again, why did you help Lin Siqiong?"
"It's not that I want to help." The Supervisor shook his head slowly, "but I have to help."
"Have to help? What does that mean?" Chu Huaixu asked.
The Supervisor did not answer, but looked at Yu Youning with a pair of cloudy eyes.
"Youning, you are very powerful. The world is about to fall into chaos. You must use your power to maintain the stability of this world. I think—"
I want to see the day when the Three Kingdoms are unified.
But the supervisor did not say this half sentence.
Yu Youning looked surprised and tilted his head, "What are you thinking?"
The warden chuckled softly, "I want to live, and live longer."
Only if you live long enough can you see everything you want to see.
Chu Huaixu thought the Supervisor would say something, but he didn't expect that after waiting for a long time, he only got this sentence.
Chu Huaixu frowned. "It seems that you don't have anything to say. In that case, we'll leave first."
After saying that, Chu Huaixu took Yu Youning's hand and was about to leave.
"Your Highness!"
The warden suddenly raised his voice.
"This world is going to be in chaos!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Huaixu turned around to look, only to see that the Supervisor had lowered his head again.
He sat there quietly, his body not moving at all, as if he was no longer there.
Yu Youning also turned his head and looked over, "You will live a long time!"
After saying this, Yu Youning pulled Chu Huaixu and ran away.
Yu Youning wanted to leave the palace directly, but was stopped by Chu Huaixu.
"Youning, my mother has always wanted to meet you. Now that you have entered the palace, why don't you come with me to meet her?"
Afraid that Yu Youning would disagree, Chu Huaixu hurriedly said, "There are many delicious foods in the Queen Mother's palace. I heard that the imperial chef has also researched many new dishes—"
"What are you waiting for? Let's go!"
Yu Youning finished saying this sentence impatiently, then realized that there was something wrong with what he said, and hurriedly corrected it.
"What I mean is, we should go quickly and not keep the Queen waiting anxiously! I'm not here to eat delicious food!"
Chu Huaixu suppressed his laughter and nodded seriously, "I know, Youning is definitely not here for the delicious food!"
...
When the Queen saw Yu Youning and Chu Huaixu running in hand in hand, her eyes immediately curved with smile.
"Xu'er, Youning! You're here! Look how sweaty you are from running. Hurry up and wipe it off."
"Hurry up and bring the milk over, and pick up a few more of these freshly made cakes!"
"Have the imperial kitchen prepare dinner. Make all of Youning's favorite dishes, and also prepare a portion of the new dishes we've developed recently."
The queen arranged the people in the palace clearly.
The palace, which was originally extremely quiet, suddenly became busy with the palace maids and eunuchs.
But no one was unhappy about this; instead, everyone was happier than the other.
One look at the Queen's current appearance tells you that she is in a good mood.
If the Empress is in a good mood, the lives of the servants will naturally be better.
Even though the Empress was in a bad mood, she would not punish the palace maids at will, but they did not dare to laugh when the Empress was in a bad mood.
Now that the Empress is happy, they will only be happier!
After Yu Youning came in, she only said a few words when greeting everyone. For the rest of the time, her mouth was completely occupied by delicious food.
Ah Xu really didn't lie to her. There were so many delicious foods here at the Queen's place!
Can’t finish it!
I can’t finish it at all!
Yu Youning ate in the Queen's palace until very late.
Seeing that the palace gate was about to be locked, he stood up hurriedly.
"Empress, Ah Xu, I need to go back! Otherwise, I won't be able to leave once the palace gates are closed!"
The Queen wore a gentle smile. "Don't leave. I've already had a room prepared for you. You can stay here tonight. It'll be convenient for you to attend your grandfather's celebration banquet tomorrow at noon. Don't worry about your mother. I've already told her, and she even wrote you a note."
As the queen spoke, a palace maid walked up to Yu Youning holding a tray.
There was only a thin piece of paper on the tray.
Yu Youning picked it up, opened it and saw that it was indeed his mother's handwriting.
The sentence on the paper was short, and the general meaning was that she should have a good rest in the palace, not worry, and not make trouble.
After carefully reading it twice, Yu Youning folded it up and placed it in her arms. Then she said happily, "Then I'll stay, but will it bother Her Majesty the Queen?"
"Of course not."
The queen couldn't stop smiling.
If she wasn't afraid that Yu Youning and Yu Tingwan would be unwilling, she would even want to keep Yu Youning in the palace.
Chu Huaixu kept watching with a smile, and finally, seeing that Yu Youning was sleepy, he reluctantly returned to the East Palace.
After Yu Youning fell asleep, the queen did not sleep. She asked someone to quietly move out the clothes and jewelry she had prepared earlier.
"I will carefully select Youning. She must not lose to that Tuoba Ruoli tomorrow!"
