Run away quickly, your life is the most important thing, brotherly and sisterly love is all bullshit.
The eldest brother of the Ye family took one last look at her and hurried out. He had to find his daughter and keep her safe to prevent her from being snatched away by someone else.
For three days, the queen pursued the eldest brother of the Ye family relentlessly. Wherever he went, she followed him.
As the day to return to the palace was approaching, the queen decided to use one last method.
......
Imperial Palace.
Xuanzheng Hall.
evening.
Zhou Beichen was still reviewing memorials. If he didn't review them for a day, the memorials would pile up into a mountain. Zhou Beichen didn't dare to delay for a moment.
"Your Majesty, the princess is here."
Deshun knelt on the ground cautiously. Zhou Beichen looked up and glanced at him, snorting.
"From now on, whenever the princess comes, there's no need to report her, just let her in."
"yes."
As Deshun finished speaking, a childish voice came from the door.
"Daddy, I'm coming!"
Zhou Zhaonuan ran up like a fat dancing butterfly, rushed in suddenly and hugged Zhou Beichen's thighs.
"Will Nuan Nuan come and massage Father's legs?"
Zhou Beichen smiled, but Zhou Zhaonuan's smile became stiff.
Never mind, since daddy asked her to rub it, she would just rub it. Just like mommy said, if she puts a filter on daddy, she can always make him crazy.
That way, one day, maybe if daddy is happy, he will send her back to mommy.
"Nuan Nuan rub it, Nuan Nuan rub it, Nuan Nuan will rub it for daddy right now."
As he spoke, Zhou Zhaonuan climbed up his thighs using his hands and feet, hitting him hard again and again.
Zhou Beichen: It’s really nice to have a caring daughter.
He glanced at Deshun with a smug look, and instantly felt that the documents in his hand would be easier to review.
After the morning court session the next day, the queen led a baby who was over four years old, about the same age as Zhou Zhaonuan, into the Qianyuan Hall.
Zhou Beichen is having breakfast with his two children.
Seeing the queen bringing a child into the palace, Zhou Beichen stared at her indifferently, making the queen avoid his gaze, and then he spoke slowly.
"I don't understand why the Queen left the palace to visit her relatives and brought back a child. What does this mean? Or do you want to raise this child?"
This sentence hit the mark, and the queen's heart skipped a beat.
She pulled the four-year-old Ye Bihe and knelt beside Zhou Beichen. The smile on her face, which had just been full of sorrow, became even more sorrowful.
"Your Majesty, I returned to the General's Mansion to visit my family. Unexpectedly, my brother and eldest sister-in-law were killed by criminals while traveling last night. Now, this child is the only one left of my brother's bloodline. Her father is old, and I see that this child is young and helpless. I have been childless for so many years and feel very lonely. So I would like to ask Your Majesty to recognize this child as the second princess. As the daughter of Your Majesty and my concubine, this child can live in the palace with full authority."
"Your Majesty, please consider my brother's tragic experience, the loyalty of the Ye family, and the fact that I have devoted all these years to managing the harem, yet I still have no children. I am truly heartbroken. Please accept this child."
The queen kowtowed heavily, then raised her watery eyes and looked at Zhou Beichen, her eyes full of sadness. When she lowered her head to stroke Ye Bihe's head, there was a hint of pity in the queen's eyes.
"Your Majesty, it's actually quite good to have another daughter."
Zhou Beichen sneered, "Not good!"
The Queen looked up in surprise. "Why? Look, this child is very well-behaved. If you adopt her as your daughter, I believe she will not bring shame to the royal family."
Zhou Beichen stared at the queen with an eagle-like sharp gaze, his tone flat.
"Queen, if you consider her your child and raise her for yourself, then she is the legitimate daughter of the Empress. If that is the case, where do you place my biological daughter, Zhou Zhaonuan, and my biological son, Zhou Zeyun? You want this girl to always be superior to my biological children? Forget it. It's impossible."
Queen: “???”
She blinked, as if wondering why the emperor was so insightful. This was exactly what she had in mind. She wanted her niece to suppress the two children in every way.
"But, Your Majesty, Ye Bihe is truly pitiful. Please show some mercy."
"I will not show mercy!"
Zhou Beichen rejected it outright, and then said seriously.
"If that's really not possible, you can put her under Concubine Shen, Second Princess. I can accept it with reluctance."
Queen: “???”
Why? Why was it this woman again, ruining her plans time and time again? For so many years, no child had been born in the harem, and yet she was the one who gave birth, and the Emperor didn't give her a child. Now, she finally gave birth to a child, but the Emperor wanted to give her to Concubine Shen. How could she swallow this?
The queen looked unhappy. She stood up, walked towards Zhou Beichen with tears in her eyes, and rubbed her shoulders considerately.
"If this is possible, then, Your Majesty, can you grant me another favor?"
Zhou Beichen didn't care. He patted her hand and said, "You say."
"I would like to ask the Emperor to personally raise this child, or perhaps allow me to do so."
He lowered his head, raised his eyes and pressed them downwards, his gaze fixed on Ye Bihe. The clothes she wore and the headdress she wore looked very much like his daughter, very good.
However, the child knelt on the ground with his head down, almost trembling with fear. If he were asked to take care of a child like that, he would be furious.
What's more, he disdains to raise children for others.
"Take her home and educate her. Just let her go to the Shangshufang or something like that. As for her study companion, you can take care of her yourself."
"yes."
The goal was achieved, the Queen's tone was filled with undisguised joy, and Zhou Beichen narrowed his eyes.
"Alright, Queen, please go down."
The queen pursed her lips, unhappy for a moment, but when she thought about her goal being achieved, she quickly withdrew.
Zhou Beichen's mouth twitched. Why was this queen jumping around so wildly on his bottom line?
Zhou Zhaonuan took his head out of the rice bowl like a little hamster, and stretched out his dirty little hands to grab Zhou Beichen's dark dragon robe.
A certain emperor quickly dodged backwards and looked at Zhou Zhaonuan with a face full of disgust.
"Eat quickly. After you finish eating, let Biyu take you to wash your hands so that you can go to the Shangshu room."
When I heard that I was going to the Shangshufang, the round dumpling almost turned into a dead dumpling. I suddenly felt that the big chicken leg in my hand was no longer delicious.
Nuannuan doesn't want to go, but if she doesn't go, she will be beaten.
Zhou Zhaonuan shook his head, trying to clear the memory of being beaten from his mind, and asked vaguely.
"Daddy, do Nuannuan and brother have a younger sister?"
Before Zhou Beichen could speak, Zhou Zeyun's eyes turned cold. "Yes, I have two sisters, but Nuannuan, if that sister treats you well, you should treat her well. If she doesn't like you, don't just stick to her cold butt."
Yesterday, his mother had secretly told him that the queen was a bad person and a bad person, so she asked him and his stupid sister to be wary of the queen and the people around her.
