"Mother is unwilling to accept this. Your father is a good man, and I didn't marry the wrong person. I just don't know what your grandmother is thinking. She can't live a good life, but she keeps making trouble all day long.
The eldest brother is like a father. Your third uncle used to listen to your father, but your grandmother has been pampering the third branch, raising their minds to be cunning and restless.
As she spoke, Ling complained about her sister-in-law, Xiao Hong, "If your father hadn't been holding you back in the early years, your third uncle would have been fooling around outside and had concubines filling up the yard. Your third aunt isn't grateful and lives in our house, but instead complains and resents us.
After the separation of the clan, your third uncle took three concubines in Yazhou. Your third aunt sent a letter back asking your father to take care of your third uncle. How ridiculous."
Bei Lingyao listened quietly. Mrs. Ling had been grumbling for many years, but she couldn't tell her daughters-in-law about it, as there weren't many people in her family.
Looking at her daughter's tolerant and understanding expression, she couldn't help but say something.
"Mom, what does Dad think?"
Bei Lingyao wanted to know what Censor Bei was thinking.
"Your father is a filial and loyal man. Even if your grandma didn't make a fuss, he still wanted to save your third uncle's family. He didn't dare to ask you or the emperor for mercy, fearing that it would cause you trouble. He will wait until your third uncle arrives in Beijing before making any plans."
Ling patted her daughter's hand. "Mother came to the palace this time hoping you wouldn't get involved in this matter. Treason is a heinous crime punishable by the death of nine generations of the family. Fortunately, our family wasn't implicated, and neither the Queen nor the Crown Prince were in trouble."
I just don't know how the Emperor will deal with you. If you create a rift with the Emperor because of your Third Uncle and the Hong family, it will be more trouble than it's worth."
When something like this happened, Ling was most worried about her daughter.
Although his daughter is the queen and his grandson is the prince, this is just the beginning. The emperor is in his prime and it is unknown what changes will happen in the future.
Moreover, if his daughter can give birth to a son, it means that the emperor can also let other women give birth.
There are many concubines in the harem. Once my daughter falls out of favor and the emperor already has a favorite concubine and a prince, the status of my daughter and the prince will be in jeopardy.
"Don't worry, mother. The emperor knows about our family and Third Uncle's family, and he won't blame his daughter. The most important thing now is to stabilize Grandmother. Third Uncle's family can survive, but they must leave the clan and be exiled to the Mobei area with the Hong family."
This was what Bei Lingyao was thinking. She said softly:
"If grandma still wants to threaten me with death, I will let the Hong family and Third Uncle's family go down to accompany her. I mean what I say."
Ling felt a pang in her heart as she watched him say those cruel words with a smile on his face.
The palace was indeed the cruelest place. Her innocent daughter changed a lot after entering the palace.
However, Ling was also happy with this change.
In the palace, people who are too kind are likely to suffer losses.
To have the last laugh, one must have scheming, means, beauty, offspring (not necessarily one's own), and luck.
"Well, with your words, your grandmother will never dare to threaten me with death again."
Ling left the palace not long after staying there.
Sure enough, as soon as she returned, she told Bei Lingyao what she had said.
Old Mrs. Bei fell silent and quieted down.
If Censor Bei used these words, he would not be able to threaten Old Lady Bei.
A mother understands her son, remembers kindness and grudges, and values affection, righteousness and filial piety.
Before the old man passed away, he asked the eldest son to take care of his younger brothers and sisters, so that they would prosper and suffer together.
The Hong family is my maternal uncle’s family, so I’ll take care of them if I can.
The old man had no idea that after his death, the old lady used his will to control her sons, making them do whatever they wanted. She also allowed the third son to act willfully, making the relationship between the brothers become increasingly distant and worse.
In fact, the people who fear death the most are people like Old Lady Bei, but Bei Lingyao and the Bei family are afraid that Old Lady Bei will make a fuss and threaten to die, which even the King of Hell can't stand and will take her away directly.
He really died.
No one caused trouble and the ceremony of crowning the queen went smoothly.
Bei Lingyao wore a purple-gold phoenix crown, a nine-phoenix robe, and held a phoenix seal and a treasure book in her hand. She stood side by side with Emperor Shengwu, looking down at the ministers from above.
Mother of the world!
"Long live our emperor!"
"Long live the Queen!"
The deafening shouts echoed throughout the entire Golden Throne Hall, and then spread layer by layer, from the imperial palace to far away.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for receiving the blessing of Phoenix Qi, and reward of 100 points.]
[Host account balance: 400 points.]
Wow!
Bei Lingyao didn't expect there would be an unexpected surprise.
After all, it only takes thirty points to be a noble concubine, and fifty points to be a queen.
It seems that only after the empress's coronation ceremony and worship of heaven and earth and the ancestral temple can she receive the blessing of the phoenix spirit.
That is to say, it is recognized by heaven and earth.
Bei Lingyao was extremely happy.
Suddenly, the system said: [Host, look up at the sky.]
Bei Lingyao looked up and her eyes widened.
Emperor Shengwu followed Bei Lingyao's gaze and was stunned.
At this moment, exclamations were heard everywhere.
"Oh my God! All the flowers are blooming."
"Look! The morning glow and clouds in the sky look like a soaring phoenix."
"It's the strange phenomenon of heaven and earth caused by the Queen's coronation ceremony!"
The ministers were in an uproar and were all shocked and out of control!
After a long while, no one knew who started it, but everyone started shouting, "God bless you! Your Majesty, the Queen has been chosen by Heaven. May you live a thousand years!"
…
The eldest princess couldn't believe it.
How is that possible?
Since ancient times, no queen has ever been heard of having such a strange phenomenon in heaven and earth.
She wanted to not believe it, didn't want to admit it, but what she saw before her eyes were all real: the blooming flowers and the colorful clouds and phoenixes in the sky.
Bei Lingyao's heart surged, "System, was it you who did this?"
[This system lacks energy and is not capable of causing such phenomena in the universe. The host has been recognized by this world.]
"But I didn't contribute anything, and all I got was a son? That's too easy to get."
