Chapter 428 Getting busy again
After listening to Song Qingyan's words, Jin Xin felt relieved: "Your Majesty is really smart. I will never be able to learn from you in my lifetime."
Song Qingyan turned her head to look at Lu Xingwan standing beside her, and thought to herself, but this little girl Wanwan, who is less than one year old, is already much better than your queen.
He smiled and tapped Jinxin's head: "This little thing is not worth losing sleep over."
That night, Lu Xingwan and Song Qingyan, mother and daughter, slept well again.
The next day, the Emperor of Great Chu rushed to Qingyun Palace as soon as he attended the morning court.
After sitting down, Jinyu and Jinxin naturally prepared meals for the Emperor of Great Chu.
"Your Majesty, why did you come in such a hurry? Is there something urgent in the court?" Song Qingyan couldn't help but ask when she saw the Emperor of Great Chu still in his court robes.
The Great Chu Emperor smiled and shook his head: "Now these ministers have become obedient."
"If they hadn't insisted on me taking a queen, all these messy things wouldn't have happened."
"Now they have all stopped talking about it."
[But even if he didn't establish a queen, Shen Ning would have died a long time ago.]
[It's just that making her the queen gave her and the Shen family a better reputation. ]
[Keren, who doesn’t want to live? ]
Lu Xingwan's sudden sigh made the atmosphere suddenly become a little... a little sad.
The Emperor of Great Chu took back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little awkward.
[Why did father and mother suddenly stop talking? Could it be that father came here just for this meal? ]
In order to ease the embarrassment, Song Qingyan coughed lightly and said, "We have to be quiet for a while."
The Great Chu Emperor also followed suit and said, "I came here to ask you something."
At this point, the Great Chu Emperor suddenly paused, looked at the servants around him and said, "All of you get out."
[Looks like he's going to reveal another secret. ]
[I am so glad that I am still a child. I can hear so many secrets of my father and mother.]
[If it gets bigger, I'm afraid I'll be kicked out too.]
Emperor of Great Chu: Not really. I can’t wait to take you to court!
The door of the inner room was closed, and the Great Chu Emperor continued to speak: "I have something I want to ask you about what you said to Cheng that day."
When Song Qingyan saw the Emperor of Great Chu mentioned that day, she couldn't help but straighten her back.
Even Lu Xingwan, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but straighten up.
Seeing the mother and daughter like this, the Great Chu Emperor couldn't help but laugh. He reached out and patted Song Qingyan: "There's no need to be so nervous. It's just a casual chat."
"Your Majesty said." Although Song Qingyan smiled, her straight body betrayed her emotions.
"That day you told Cheng that the demise of Cheng State was caused by Prince Yi. How did you know that?" The Great Chu Emperor asked as he picked up his chopsticks.
When asked this, Song Qingyan smiled and said, "Actually, I don't know either. I just made it up."
"Made up?" The Great Chu Emperor was stunned and looked at Song Qingyan in surprise.
[Mother, you are really amazing. You can even make up such a lie.]
Song Qingyan continued to explain, "Yes, I was speechless when I saw Prince Yi being controlled by His Majesty outside."
"And seeing that Cheng was sincere to Prince Yi, I suddenly came up with this idea."
"Since Cheng is bent on revenge, and she doesn't know about it anyway, I will just pretend that her enemy is someone I trust."
"This Cheng family sacrificed so much for Prince Yi, and he trusted her so much, how could she bear this?"
"Humph!" Song Qingyan snorted coldly when she thought of this. "In order to protect Shen Ning, Cheng can't suffer any punishment. She can't just let it go like this during these days of bullying in the harem."
The Great Chu Emperor suddenly clapped his hands and said, "This is killing people and destroying their hearts."
Then he turned around, touched Lu Xingwan beside him, and said, "Wanwan, your mother is getting even more powerful now!"
"You know," he looked at Song Qingyan beside him and continued, "you were actually right."
"Is that right?"
"Exactly! The Dragon Shadow Guard has been busy these days, investigating these matters."
"The initial chaos that brought disaster to the country was really caused by this Prince Yi. He really wanted to become emperor."
"But I don't have that kind of power, so..."
[So what mother said is right. Prince Yi has been trying to take advantage of Cheng from the beginning.]
[Letting Cheng enter the palace was not for revenge, but to let her take the opportunity to destroy my father's harem and seize the opportunity to usurp the throne.]
[Tsk tsk tsk tsk... Don't you even look at your own weight? Is the position of the emperor father something that ordinary people can hold? 】
Even Song Qingyan shook her head helplessly: "What a foolish wishful thinking."
The Great Chu Emperor took Song Qingyan's hand and said, "Thank you for your hard work during this period. It is thanks to your quick thinking that this matter can be concluded as soon as possible."
"Otherwise, I don't know how long these two will continue to cause chaos in the harem!"
Song Qingyan would naturally not accept this credit: "Your Majesty should reward Uncle Xing. What have I done?"
"It was just a fleeting thought."
Seeing Song Qingyan being so humble, the smile on the face of the Great Chu Emperor became even wider: "I am very satisfied to have you."
[Father is so corny! I protest every night!]
"I'm afraid we won't be able to rest for long. Prime Minister Lin and his entourage are about to return to the capital."
"The envoys from Yuefeng Kingdom will arrive next."
"It seems like Xia Ning should be arriving in the capital by now."
At this point, the Great Chu Emperor sighed and said, "From now on, I won't have much time to spend with you and your daughter."
[Mother is very busy, she doesn't need you to accompany her! ]
[The prince is getting married, and the elder sister is giving birth to a baby. ]
Before Lu Xingwan finished mumbling, Song Qingyan had already spoken: "Your Majesty, just go about your business and don't worry about us."
"I'm afraid I won't be able to rest for some time."
"During this time since I returned to Beijing, I have been busy with palace affairs and have not yet visited Sister Xiaochun and her family!"
"I would like to stay at the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion for a few days. I wonder if Your Majesty can agree to this."
The Great Chu Emperor nodded upon hearing this: "Of course you can."
"The prince is getting married soon," Song Qingyan's smile was about to overflow, "I think my mother and sisters-in-law will probably give some instructions. Your Majesty also knows that because his sister is gone, the prince has always been the apple of the eye of the Dingguo Marquis's eye."
The Emperor of Great Chu nodded, and did not care about the Marquis Dingguo's mansion's inappropriate behavior.
"When Xing Ruo got married, all the staff of Dingguo Marquis's Mansion were mobilized. Now that Jin Yao is getting married, your father and mother are even more busy."
"I wonder if Your Majesty still remembers Shen Ping?" Song Qingyan asked tentatively. Wanwan had said before that this man was a talent, and Song Qingyan didn't want the prince to miss him.
So I am afraid that Your Majesty will be too busy and forget about this person.
