Chapter 251 The Ecstatic Abandoned Mother
I can't believe it, I really can't believe it.
The true dragon emperor who only exists in legends and is like a god is actually so amiable and has no airs at all.
Listening to her blah blah blah, I don't feel bored at all.
He also called her "abandoned mother" so affectionately.
Lu Qinniang, you can do it!
Your life is worth it!
Lu Qiniang was completely immersed in great shock and disbelief, so she didn't notice that Xiao Yan looked at her for a long time.
Finally, Xiao Yan couldn't help but sigh softly, "Abandoned Mother——"
Lu Qinniang was startled, and then she "pounced" over with her eyes shining.
Xiao Yan subconsciously pinched the corner of the quilt, and then quickly let go.
Lu Qinniang's appearance made him mistakenly believe that she had had some unspeakable dream and then turned into a flower thief.
Don't give up just because of his slight resistance. It's his first time and he doesn't have much experience.
But Lu Qiniang didn't make any further moves. She just lay down beside him and said, "Xiao Yan, I want to ask you, who is Master Li?"
The little bit of romantic thoughts that Xiao Yan had just had were extinguished by these words.
Did she think of it?
"Abandoned Mother, have you finally figured it out?" Xiao Yan was nervous. "Please listen to my explanation. I actually wanted to tell you before, but I was afraid you would be too nervous——"
"Are you worried that I'll be nervous?"
This rhetorical question made Xiao Yan's alarm bells ring.
Broken, really mad.
But the next moment, before Xiao Yan could formulate his words, Lu Qiniang suddenly burst into laughter. "It's the Emperor, right? If you're afraid that I'll be nervous, then he must be the Emperor, right?"
With her shaking his shoulders, Xiao Yan could only nod.
"Yes, yes, yes."
So, why is she so happy?
"Oh my God! It really is the emperor. The emperor came to my house, talked to me, ate my food, and came several times."
Lu Qiniang sat up, her whole body in great excitement.
Xiao Yan: "..."
"Xiao Yan, you're getting better!" Lu Qiniang said, "The emperor didn't hold it against you and even came to see you. You're stable now, stable now!"
The emperor really loves talents.
The previous actions now seem like a child venting his anger while playing house.
And it’s mainly Xiao Yan’s fault. He was too disobedient!
Hello, Mr. Li!
Listening to Lu Qinniang's words, Xiao Yan felt a warm feeling in his heart.
She knew the truth, but she didn't blame herself for hiding it at all, and she was only thinking about herself.
"Abandoned Mother, calm down." Xiao Yan also sat up and grabbed her sleeve.
I feel like if I don't catch her, she'll float up to the sky.
"Xiao Yan, pinch me, I can't believe it, I must be dreaming..."
"Pinch, where?" Xiao Yan blushed.
Lu Qiniang: "Why are you so excited? It's not like you just found out."
But you let me pinch you...
"How can you guys be so good at pretending!" Lu Qiniang laughed, "I can't do it. I definitely can't keep it up. Your grandfather is the emperor, the emperor... The emperor praised me for being capable. I can't do it anymore. I have to go out for a walk."
There's no room for her in this room!
Xiao Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It's snowing outside again, calm down."
"Xiao Yan, if Master Li is the emperor, then who is Uncle Teng? Who is my second brother Lu?" Lu Qiniang suddenly thought of other people.
"Teng Wenfu is the emperor's closest and most trusted eunuch. Lu Jin is the commander of the Imperial Guard."
Lu Qiniang opened her mouth wide and couldn't close it at all.
"I didn't curse the Jinyiwei."
"No."
"That's good, that's good. Everyone says the Jinyiwei are so scary, like demons and monsters, but I don't think my second brother is that kind of person."
"It's indeed quite scary." Xiao Yan said, "But it's not a monster. Do you have anything else to ask me?"
"Let me think about it." Lu Qiniang was still happy.
"Are you so happy?" Xiao Yan couldn't help asking.
"Of course I'm happy. You can always see the emperor, don't you think it's a big deal? We ordinary people would never dream of seeing the emperor, it would bring honor to our family." Lu Qinniang said.
"Not only did you meet the Emperor, you also gave him many suggestions. The Emperor listened to you and abolished the chastity arch and prohibited forcing widows to remain chaste. The Emperor also noticed the various irregularities in the grain transport system and sent the Crown Prince south to investigate. Qi Niang, you have done a lot."
Lu Qiniang was even more incredulous.
"Did the Emperor listen to me?"
Who does she think she is?
Oh my god!
She got better too.
Lu Qiniang was immersed in great surprise and disbelief throughout the morning.
While eating, Erya asked her, "Mom, why are you so happy? Did you find some silver when you went out?"
"It's even better than finding silver."
"Did you find gold?"
"You're obsessed with money, aren't you? Eat your meal. Don't you still need to take care of your things? Do you need my help?"
"No. You can't do that kind of delicate work."
"No need to forget it."
It just so happens that her hands are probably shaking right now, so she probably can't help.
They don't have any relatives to visit.
It's sad to say that neither she nor Xiao Yan can find any relatives to visit.
But it doesn’t matter, she knows the emperor!
Lu Qiniang was sitting in the house, warming herself by the fire and eating melon seeds, trying to laugh from time to time.
Xiao Yan: "..."
Is this mental state normal?
But think about it, Lu Qiniang didn't make a fuss with him, and didn't scold him for hiding the truth, so he should be content.
"Abandoned Mother..." He finally couldn't help but speak, "I didn't mean to hide it from you."
"I know, I know. How can I go around talking about the Emperor's affairs? I'd sew my mouth shut even in my dreams. I can't say anything nonsense."
Xiao Yan: "..."
Otherwise you should just make some noise.
I feel uneasy if you don't make a fuss.
"Xiao Yan, there's something I don't understand!"
"you say."
"Your stepmother is the Emperor's biological daughter, so why doesn't the Emperor care about her and let her bully you? Although I understand that the Emperor has a lot of things to do and it's impossible for him to take care of every little thing in every child's family, but he still came home to see you, you are different!"
"The Emperor has his own difficulties," Xiao Yan said. "My mother is the seventh child in the family and is already over forty years old. How could the Emperor have such a great daughter?"
"Ah? Yes! Why didn't I think about it?" Lu Qiniang slapped her head.
Even a pig would disagree if you say you have a pig brain.
So stupid.
"The Emperor's first eight princesses were all adopted," Xiao Yan said. "When the King of Yue attempted a rebellion, the Emperor's secret guards risked their lives to protect him, and more than a dozen of them died. The Empress, grateful for their life-saving grace, chose one daughter from each family, adopted her, and brought her into the palace to be raised."
Those who did not have daughters were also given other pensions.
"My stepmother is the descendant of a meritorious official, so the Emperor can't say too much to her."
"That's really hard to say." Lu Qiniang said, "It's not easy for the emperor either. As long as you're alive, you can't escape these social customs."
