The Queen and Qin Yanning were invited to the outer room first.

Although the queen was anxious, she still listened to the advice of several imperial doctors.

Qin Yanning wanted to pretend that she was also very anxious, but everyone knew that she had no relationship with the emperor, so she sat obediently on a chair outside and waited for Shen Ziyu to finish his work and come to her.

Perhaps it was the director's words that her life was temporarily safe that gave the queen a shot in the arm.

The Queen looked at Qin Yanning calmly and said, "I never thought that my brother would fall in love with someone one day."

Qin Yanning felt a little embarrassed when he heard this and didn't know how to answer the queen.

The Queen waved her hand and said, "You don't have to be restrained in front of me. You can see that His Majesty has been in poor health. Over the years, His Majesty and I have relied on my younger brother."

Although the queen said so, Qin Yanning still sat obediently and answered every word the queen said.

The worst thing in life is to avoid talking about deep things with someone you just met, not to mention that the emperor is seriously ill and Shen Ziyu is sitting in such an awkward position as the regent.

What if the Queen was trying to trick her? She didn't want to accidentally hurt Shen Ziyu with a single word.

Seeing that Qin Yanning didn't want to talk, the queen didn't say much.

The Buddhist beads tightly clenched in her right hand were enough to show how nervous she was at the moment. Perhaps she chose to talk to Qin Yanning in order to relieve her anxiety.

Qin Yanning looked at the queen and felt some sympathy.

Qin Yanning knew that although she was the queen, the empress dowager favored Concubine Liang, and her life in the palace was not easy.

However, it seems that the queen also has real feelings for the emperor.

Qin Yanning was just thinking about it when Shen Ziyu had already arranged everything outside and returned to Daming Palace.
