"Yes!" Lan Yuehong immediately glanced at Fu Hui, and the maid Fu Hui immediately gritted her teeth and followed.
"Lan Yuehong, you are so brave!" The queen shouted angrily when she saw Lan Yuehong kneeling below.
The Queen could plot against Ning Xiaotang to get her engaged to Prince Chen, and avoid having Prince Chen have too strong an in-law relationship, so as not to hinder the Crown Prince's position.
But in the final analysis, this prince is just someone else's child. She, Qin Fengzhi, has no children of her own. However, Ning Xiaotang's appearance and the embroidery of her clothes all reveal that she is her good friend Fu Mengzhu. If Lan Yuehong hurts Ning Xiaotang, then Lan Yuehong will naturally be executed!
"Please have mercy, Your Majesty. I don't know what I have done wrong." Lan Yuehong's body began to tremble.
"Hmph, do you know those two men in black?" Queen Feng pointed at the two people on the field.
"These are my two secret guards, Jinshan and Jinshi!"
"Hmph! It was these two who sneaked into Princess Roujia's room and planned to assassinate her!" The Queen's face was clearly filled with anger.
Chen Ye immediately stepped forward and gently stretched out his hand to draw his eyebrows. The queen immediately suppressed her anger.
She had lost her sense of proportion. Although Ning Xiaotang should not have been killed, it was still unknown whether she was Fu Mengzhu's child.
"Ning Xiaotang, tell me how you want to deal with these two men in black?" The queen still seemed to support Ning Xiaotang.
Ning Xiaotang had just opened her mouth to speak when she heard the maid come in to report: "The Empress and Princess Roujia's family have arrived, ready to thank the Empress together with Princess Roujia!"
The queen glanced at Chen Ye, and Nanny Chen nodded slightly.
"Let them in!" the queen ordered.
The maid led the Ning family members inside.
Ning Xiaotang also immediately walked to the front, stood together and knelt, saying: "Thank you, Queen, for your great grace!"
Liu Lanqing stared blankly at the woman sitting in the main seat, tears streaming down her face.
"Fengzhi~!" Liu Lanqing whispered, then knelt down and lowered her head.
"Mengzhu~!" Qin Fengzhi immediately recognized her close friend, Fu Mengzhu.
"Mother, do you know the Queen?" Ning Xiaotang immediately asked in a low voice after hearing Liu Lanqing's voice.
"Silly child, mother knew me in the past. Now I am just a village woman in Ningxiahe Village."
The voice was small, but Ning Xiaotang felt particularly relieved.
"Mrs. Ning San, please stay. The others can go to the guest house to rest and leave after lunch." Chen Ye said with a slightly raised voice.
At this time, Luo Xiangqin and others looked at their third daughter-in-law with worried expressions.
"All of you please leave!" Qin Fengzhi immediately ordered the maids on both sides to leave.
"Village woman Liu Lanqing greets the Empress!"
"Liu Lanqing? You are obviously my sister Fu Mengzhu!" Qin Fengzhi immediately walked down from the main seat in panic and grabbed Liu Lanqing's wrist tightly.
"Your Majesty, you've got the wrong person!" Liu Lanqing obviously didn't want to admit it.
"Have you been well these past ten years, Mengzhu?" Qin Fengzhi held Liu Lanqing's wrist tightly and refused to let go.
"My dear wife, everyone in the family is doing well." Liu Lanqing replied in surprise with her head down.
"You are obviously Meng Zhu, right?"
"Queen, why do you have to mention my old name again? I have forgotten it all and don't want to go back to the past!"
"Don't you care about my elder brother Qin Kecheng at all?"
Liu Lanqing's face was obviously startled, but when she thought of Ning Lenian, her face turned slightly red and she said, "I have married someone else and my life is going well now. Please ask your elder brother to stop missing me!"
"Fu Mengzhu, you have such a cruel heart! Do you know that my eldest brother has been living alone for the past ten years, without a wife or concubines, and has been waiting for you!"
"Don't tell me this. I'm a member of the Ning family now. I won't go back to the way I was before!"
Liu Lanqing immediately burst into tears.
Although Ning Xiaotang couldn't hear clearly what happened inside, she saw her mother coming out with red eyes.
"Mother, has the Queen given you a hard time?" Ning Xiaotang reached out to hold Liu Lanqing's hand worriedly.
"It's okay. The Queen was just asking about some things in my past that caused Mother to feel sad."
"Mom, can you tell Tangtang about your sad story?" Ning Xiaotang stared at Liu Lanqing with a silly look.
The Queen was furious in her room, "Madam Chen, what do you think Mengzhu means by this? She's actually willing to abandon my eldest brother and spend her life in love with this peasant?"
Chen Ye immediately stepped forward to support the Queen and said, "Perhaps Miss Fu is burdened by past sorrows and feels guilty towards the Queen's eldest brother!"
"Will she feel guilty? Look at her expression just now. She acted as if she had found the love of her life. She resolutely refused to divorce the man from the Ning family!"
"Her Majesty, have you forgotten that Miss Fu is your dearest friend? She has always been a stickler for what she says. Even though she's married now, it's hard to change her mind!"
"Yes, now her name is Liu Lanqing, not the Fu Mengzhu I knew before.
She has her own little family now, so how could she care about my big brother who is still waiting for her?"
"Then what is the Queen going to do?" A little calculation flashed in Chen Ye's eyes, but his eyelids drooped quickly.
"What should I do? What else can I do? Write a letter to Big Brother immediately, hoping that Big Brother's appearance can make Liu Lanqing change his mind!"
After Liu Lanqing and the Ning family members rested for a while in the guest courtyard and had lunch, Luo Xiangqin quietly asked Liu Lanqing to stay and said, "Old Third Family, please stay. I have something to ask you."
Chen Ya and Hai Moying were so nervous when they met the Queen just now that they had no idea that Liu Lanqing shed tears and silently called out the Queen's name when she entered the room.
But Luo Xiangqin noticed this little detail, so she had to ask about the situation.
"Mom, do you have anything to ask your daughter-in-law?" Liu Lanqing immediately bowed and waited on the side.
"Let me ask you, how do you know the Queen's name? Why did the Queen leave you alone? What did you talk about?"
Luo Xiangqin didn't understand so many things, which forced her to care about these issues.
"To answer mother, it was Tangtang who told me the Empress's name, and the Empress also told her daughter-in-law when she left her. She also told her about Tangtang's reward, saying that there is a Princess' Mansion in Kyoto, and Tangtang will be able to receive a monthly salary in the future."
"Is that all we talked about? But it wouldn't take an hour, right?" Luo Xiangqin looked up and asked in confusion.
"To answer Mother, we also want to talk about Tangtang. Mother knows that my daughter-in-law has a lot to say when she mentions Tangtang. I'm afraid that the Queen will find me annoying!"
