What? Su Mengyan was stunned when she heard this question. What fish?
Seeing this, the old lady immediately explained, "Yu'er was a cat raised by my master. Some time ago, he suddenly died for some unknown reason."
So that's what it is. Su Mengyan suddenly understood, but she didn't quite understand what the sudden death of a cat had to do with whether there was an epidemic in the palace.
Although she wanted to ask clearly, looking at the woman's crazy look, she knew that she probably wouldn't be able to get any answer.
Seeing that there would be no consequences for her staying here at this moment, Su Mengyan said goodbye and left. However, before she could open her mouth, the woman in red suddenly pulled out a hairpin from her hair.
"Well, since you're relatively well-behaved, I'll give you this hairpin." The woman in red placed the hairpin on the table and continued to eat the few chestnut cakes she had.
Uh, facing this woman's sudden gift, Su Mengyan was a little confused. If she said she was well-behaved, then she could only say that she actually had no idea what was going on and was just watching.
Moreover, I didn't even know this woman, and she suddenly wanted to give me a hairpin. I didn't know what her intention was.
Thinking of this, Su Mengyan wanted to refuse. However, the woman in red seemed to see through her thoughts and said casually, "Don't underestimate this ordinary hairpin. It can save your life at a critical moment!"
What? Su Mengyan was very confused about what the woman in red said. She didn't know why the woman in red said this. Moreover, as the queen, what in the harem could endanger her life?
There are so many people around me who can protect me, so what role can this small hairpin play?
Although she was very confident that she would not get hurt, she also understood that the woman in red wanted her to accept her hairpin, so she smiled and picked it up.
"In that case, thank you in advance."
Putting the hairpin into her sleeve, Su Mengyan looked at the sky and said to the master and servants, "I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave now."
Judging from the weather, her son should have woken up from his sleep. At this time, she must hurry back to prevent the child from making a fuss.
When the master and his two servants heard Su Mengyan say she wanted to leave, they did not try to keep her, but just sent her out.
After leaving the cold palace, Su Mengyan breathed a sigh of relief. Although she had just entered a courtyard of the cold palace, she could see the desolation in the cold palace.
Sure enough, this is the cold palace that no one in the harem wants to set foot in.
Looking back at the gate of the cold palace, Su Mengyan shook her head and turned to go to the Feng Palace.
When she returned to the palace, Longyao had indeed woken up.
After he had eaten his fill in his wet nurse's arms, he saw his mother coming back and immediately crawled towards Su Mengyan with a smile.
“Ah, ah.”
Long Yao was dancing with excitement and shouting non-stop.
Not long after, Situ Yao finished dealing with some things and wanted to relax, so he came to the Feng Palace to see his son.
"Longyao, come here, come to your father." Situ Yao opened his arms and asked Longyao, who was crawling on the ground, to come to him.
On the carpet, Long Yao heard his father calling him and immediately turned around and headed towards his father. However, after crawling for a distance, he found that there was no one in front of him.
"ah?"
He let out an "ah" sound in confusion, and then he heard a burst of laughter behind him.
Turning his head, he saw that the person he wanted to throw himself into was hiding behind him with his mother.
Although the child was young, he understood what his father was doing and knew that he was just teasing him. He immediately turned around and rushed into his father's arms again.
However, this time he missed again. Situ Yao took advantage of his inattention and turned around and went to another place. There he clapped his hands to tease Long Yao and asked him to come over.
At the beginning, the father and son had a lot of fun playing together, but as time went on, Long Yao gradually became exhausted and did not climb into his father's arms. Gradually, he became a little unhappy.
“Waaaaaah!”
Not getting a hug from her father, Long Yao turned and threw herself into her mother's arms, and at the same time began to cry in grievance.
"Look at you, you made the child cry." Hearing her son crying, Su Mengyan felt distressed and couldn't help complaining to Situ Yao.
Situ Yao touched his nose embarrassedly. He just wanted to make his son happy. He didn't expect it to have such consequences. If he had known, he would not have been like this all the time.
After coaxing Long Yao into a good mood, Su Mengyan asked the nurse to take him down to play. Then she looked at Situ Yao and said, "Your Majesty, what is the matter with your visit today?"
The couple did have feelings for each other at the beginning, but since Situ Yao ascended the throne, state affairs have become increasingly heavy, and Situ Yao has spent most of his energy on state affairs, so naturally he has no time to care about love.
Hearing Su Mengyan's question, Situ Yao no longer hesitated and stated his purpose for today: "As you know, the new king of Tubo overthrew the old king and will ascend the throne soon. He wants to establish a century-long friendship with our country. In this case, we should give him a registration gift."
"Could it be that the Emperor wishes to ask me what gift I should give him?" Su Mengyan looked at Situ Yao and asked in confusion. This matter was between two countries, so naturally, a woman like her couldn't make the decision. Why would Situ Yao ask her such a question?
As expected, Situ Yao shook his head and said, "No, the Ministry of Revenue is in charge of sending gifts, so you don't need to bother with the effort. What I want to say is something else. Since we are going to send gifts, we naturally need an envoy. Who do you think should be chosen as the envoy?"
When he said this, his eyes were fixed on Su Mengyan. Su Mengyan understood what he meant after a little thought.
It turned out that Situ Yao had his sights set on Chen Yalan. He felt that Chen Yalan had a close relationship with that Dillans, so this time he should naturally let her be the envoy. To put it nicely, she was an envoy delivering gifts, but in fact he wanted to give Chen Yalan to this Dillans.
After figuring out these things, Su Mengyan couldn't help but frown. To be honest, as a modern person, she really hated the ancients' habit of giving their women away to others at every turn.
No matter what, Chen Yalan was also Situ Yao's woman, so how could he give his woman to someone else? Therefore, Su Mengyan could not agree with Situ Yao's idea.
