Qing Yan needs to calm down. Transmigrating is one thing, but becoming an infant? Is this a joke? When she was three years old, she met a jade-carved little boy. Qing Yan's eyes immediately lit...
As the army drew ever closer to the capital, Kangxi and Yinzhen grew increasingly distressed. Qingyan had long since fallen into panic, and the fact that Lady Jueluo had not yet made a move against her puzzled Fei Yanggu and the others who were protecting Qingyan.
Lady Jueluo was a persistent person; she would definitely fulfill the Empress Dowager's request once she had made it. These past few days, Yin had been constantly by Qingyan's side, making sure no one caused trouble.
"Little darling, we can go down to set up camp soon. We'll be able to reach the capital in two or three more days of hard work!" Yin knew that once they arrived in the capital, they would definitely have a tough battle to fight. Not everyone wanted Qingyan to return safely.
Consort Tong and the other consorts are slowly recovering. The source of the incompatible poisons has been traced more clearly. Some of them were part of the Empress Dowager's dowry. These incompatible poisons have killed many people. Combined with the poisons from the Jue Luo clan, the two almost caught the imperial physicians off guard.
If Qingyan had no space, the consequences would have been unimaginable. Lanxi even felt that her medical skills had improved considerably.
"Fourth Brother, is Father really going to deal with Mother?" After all, Jue Luo was the mother of this body. After the Emperor's secret decree was issued, Qingyan's little head began to panic. E'shuo and Saituo dared not say anything more.
It was fortunate that the combined military achievements of Fei Yanggu and his two sons, along with Qing Yan's contributions, saved the life of the Jue Luo clan.
"Hmm, they probably locked her up in the ancestral hall. Little darling, you should understand the identity of the person who was poisoned this time." Yin felt a chill run down his spine just thinking about it; it was Qingyan's reminder that prevented things from turning out the same as in his previous life.
As soon as she finished speaking, Qingyan's face fell. The others thought that by persuading Sisi, she could keep her mother's freedom. They really overestimated themselves.
"Fourth Prince, I don't want Mother to lose her freedom." Qingyan looked at Yin pitifully. She rarely pleaded for mercy, but she certainly couldn't stand idly by when it came to the Jueluo clan's affairs.
Saito and Eshuo promised that they would try to persuade their mother when they returned.
Yin lowered his head and saw her uneasily lower her paws, feeling a little soft-hearted.
"Let's go ask Mother!" Since Consort Tong had given her an answer, Yin felt more confident.
This time, the source of Kangxi's anger was that Consort Tong's health had relapsed.
The years of recuperation were completely ruined by this poison, how could this not infuriate Emperor Kangxi?
Qingyan had a small, flat mouth. She was afraid of seeing Consort Tong's disappointed expression, and even more worried that Emperor Kangxi would seize on this as a pretext to cause the Ulanara family's complete downfall.
As a daughter, she would feel uneasy if she didn't stand up for her mother.
The servants who came out of the Ulanara residence were basically under Kangxi's control, and some were even sent to the secret camp for interrogation. The fact that the Gioro clan was able to act so swiftly was probably largely due to these people.
She took small steps and followed Yin to the front of the imperial tent. She saw Fei Yanggu and his two sons kneeling respectfully at the tent entrance. Fei Yanggu looked up and saw Qingyan's small figure, and thought to himself that he was in trouble.
"Little darling, hurry back!" Fei Yanggu warned Qingyan with his lips, telling her not to stay outside any longer and to go back first.
Qingyan pursed her lips tightly, and tugged at the hem of Yin's vest with her small hand, wanting him to stop and stay for a while.
He had already spotted Fei Yanggu and his group out of the corner of his eye, and couldn't help but be surprised that Kangxi would punish them. Normally, Kangxi wouldn't embarrass his important officials, and he was now somewhat hesitant.
"Fourth Prince, Little Darling, you don't need to stand outside anymore!" Kangxi was very satisfied as he watched the two little ones come over. At least Qingyan hadn't stood idly by.
Previously, he made Fei Yanggu and his two sons kneel outside, partly to warn his spies, but more importantly, to protect the reputation of the father and sons.
Upon returning to the capital, he was determined to punish the Jue Luo clan. If anyone tried to use this incident as an excuse, he would immediately dismiss their plans. He was determined to protect Qingyan.
Consort Tong smiled. When the two little ones arrived, the sun had already cast their shadows on the tent. When they saw Qingyan, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
She was the youngest, but she was growing up gradually, and Yin's teachings were very comprehensive.
"Your subject/daughter greets Father/Your Majesty and Mother/Your Highness." The two took a deep breath and entered the tent.
At this moment, Eshuo and Saituo were sweating bullets for Qingyan. The little one needed to know her place; by not mentioning the Jueluo clan, Kangxi shouldn't be furious. If she didn't know her place, the little one would definitely be punished.
"Father... what should we do?" E'shuo was in a panic. Even when Kangxi was angry, he was not this flustered. He was really afraid that Qingyan's stubborn temper would flare up.
Fei Yanggu shook his head, praying in his heart that Yin could control Qingyan's temper and prevent the little girl from acting impulsively.
"Get up and kowtow. Little darling, is there something you need in my tent?" Kangxi looked at Qingyan's tense little face and his expression softened a bit, hoping to give Qingyan some strength.
"Um... Your Majesty, did Father and Ah Hun make you angry?" Qingyan didn't mention Jue Luo Shi at all, wanting to save Fei Yanggu and his two sons from further embarrassment.
Kangxi slowly took a sip of tea, her heart pounding in her throat. What had her father done to anger Kangxi?
"Little darling, what do you think?" Kangxi glared at Yinzhen, who was trying to help him out of the predicament.
Qingyan felt a sense of unease. Kangxi was angry, and she could not fathom his thoughts from inside the imperial tent.
Last time, she inadvertently used the space's system to explore the divine will and almost suffered a backlash from the dragon's energy.
"It's Mother's business." Qingyan lowered his head dejectedly. The four of them worked together to make a good living, but the matter of Jue Luo was a bit tricky.
Consort Tong praised Qingyan, saying that her composure in the face of danger was a sign of her inner strength.
"My dear, women must also follow the rules." Consort Tong instructed Qingyan, following Emperor Kangxi's instructions.
"Your Majesty, I know." Qingyan nodded.
On the way here, Yin explained to Qingyan that once that memorial was in Kangxi's hands, the Jueluo clan would have no chance of turning things around. Now, Qingyan was very anxious. The fall of the Jueluo clan would directly affect the three of them, and would also make people target Fei Yanggu.
"Little darling, have you ever thought about what will happen to Fei Yanggu and the others if the censors find out about this list?" If they can't even control the women in the inner quarters, how can they manage an army of hundreds of thousands?
After this incident, Fei Yanggu and his two sons may never be able to go on a campaign again, which is the most severe punishment a military general could receive.
Immediately, Qingyan's face turned deathly pale; her father and the children's future was ruined.
