When Bei Ming Yulan heard this, she suddenly stopped talking. Her heart was rumbling, as if someone had caught her doing something wrong. She lowered her head and dared not say another word.
I was afraid that I would say something wrong and cause Bei Mingxuan unnecessary trouble.
Chang'an glanced at Bei Ming Yulan's expression, the corners of his lips raised. He walked over to Bei Ming Yulan and took her hand, "Lan'er, don't be disturbed by the rumors outside. To be honest, I'm glad that you have been with the prince since childhood. Otherwise, wouldn't the prince, without his parents by his side, be even more lonely?"
Bei Ming Yulan looked into Chang'an's eyes, slowly raised the corners of her lips into a smile, and nodded vigorously, "Yeah."
Chang'an smiled, looked at Tong Zi'ai, and then glanced at Bei Mingye, as if to say, you two should stop causing trouble.
"Hahaha, Ninth Brother is so lucky to have married a woman who does everything for you. Especially Chang'an, her clarity and straightforwardness are truly unmatched." The Sixth Prince smiled and looked at Tong Zi'er, telling her not to meddle in other people's business. "Zi'er, don't listen to those people's gossips from now on. You are just a soft-hearted person, you believe everything they say."
"Yes." Tong Zi'er couldn't really contradict her husband in front of everyone, "Zi'er knows she was wrong.
But Gu Shirong said that Lan'er had developed feelings for her Ninth Uncle... Zi'er thought that his words were somewhat credible, after all, they were from the Gu family. He also said that after Chang'an returned to the General's Mansion, he always cried to the old general, saying that Prince Xuan was thinking about Lan'er. So... so Zi'er..."
The eldest prince's wife immediately scolded him angrily, "Nonsense..."
The Queen Mother, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly started to scold. Her anger seemed to have overshadowed that of the Crown Prince's wife. "Do you have a pig's brain? You just follow the crowd. Don't you know that your father has already issued an edict to sever ties with the Gu family. From now on, Chang'an has no further connection with the Gu family?"
Or perhaps you never knew that the Gu family had been secretly suppressing Chang'an and bullying him for being a motherless child.
The Queen Mother's angry rebuke caused everyone to kneel down immediately, bowing their heads. No one dared to say a word. "Look at you all. Isn't it Chang'an who brought the Fire Spirit Fox to show me? Is it worth it for you to speak here one by one, being sarcastic and probing, trying to stir up trouble?"
However, Bei Mingxuan sat quietly on a chair beside him.
The others kneeling on the ground were confused, but no one dared to speak.
The Queen Mother didn't seem to look at Bei Mingxuan who was sitting beside her.
However, the fire fox, who was hiding in the Queen Mother's arms at this time, suddenly rushed out and went directly into Bei Mingxuan's arms.
He looked at the people kneeling on the ground with an arrogant look on his face.
That expression clearly showed that he was taking advantage of the power of others.
When the Queen Mother saw the look on Fire Fox's face, she wanted to keep her face tense, but she couldn't help but raise the corner of her lips. Her eyes passed from Bei Mingxuan's face to Chang'an who was kneeling on the ground.
"Chang'an, why can't you remember what the Empress Dowager said? If you kneel down again, your Prince Xuan will be furious with me."
Changan raised her head and glanced at Bei Mingxuan, her cheeks slightly red before she looked at the Queen Mother, "Grandma, he wouldn't dare. If he dares, Changan will be the first one to not forgive him."
"Hehehe." The anger on the Queen Mother's face had long since dissipated after Chang'an said this. "Grandmother Queen has already granted you and Xuan'er permission not to kneel at every turn, especially in front of me. How come you always forget, child?"
The people kneeling on the ground couldn't help but twitch the corners of their mouths and murmured in their hearts.
When the Queen Mother spoke to Chang'an, she actually called herself "I"?
What a foxy woman, not only did she bewitch Bei Mingxuan, she also bewitch the Queen Mother...
The Queen Mother's love for Chang'an is so great that it really makes people jealous and hateful!
The Queen Mother looked at Chang'an with a smile on her face, and her eyes were full of love that she couldn't hide.
When he glanced up, he saw that the emperor had already walked in. "Your Majesty? How come you have time to come here?"
"What are you doing?" The emperor looked at the people kneeling on the ground. "On New Year's Eve, have you made the Queen Mother unhappy?"
"Get up." The Queen Mother finally spoke and asked them all to get up.
The Queen Mother looked at him and asked, "Is there no one outside? Why didn't anyone tell me that the Emperor was coming?"
"Son, when I came over, I heard that the Queen Mother was both angry and happy. I wanted to hear from her if there was anything new here, so no one outside the servants spoke." The emperor said, looking at everyone and asked, "Lan'er, tell me, what's going on?"
"Grandpa Emperor." Bei Ming Yulan told the emperor everything, not a word more or less, and without bias or accusation, "It's because Aunt Nine didn't bring any New Year gifts to our ancestors. She only brought the Fire Spirit Fox to show them... and we all brought New Year gifts to our ancestors."
The emperor was taken aback and deliberately said, "Mother, why are you arguing with these young people about New Year's gifts? You have seen more fine things than they have eaten rice. Could it be that you are arguing with Chang'an and not preparing a New Year's gift for you?"
"..." The Queen Mother suddenly understood what the Emperor meant and was happy that he was speaking in Chang'an's favor. "Your Majesty, in your eyes, am I such a stingy person?"
The emperor smiled silently and turned to look at Chang'an beside him. At a moment when no one was paying attention, the emperor actually blinked at Chang'an with a satisfied look.
Bei Mingxuan saw it clearly and instantly understood why the emperor was satisfied with Chang'an.
Only then did he understand why Chang'an only prepared New Year gifts for the emperor but not for the empress dowager.
Especially thinking about it, Chang'an whispered to the emperor after leaving him. "Father, Chang'an has prepared a New Year's gift for you. It's unique. The Empress doesn't have one, Chang'an's father doesn't have one, and even Bei Mingxuan doesn't have one. It's truly a unique gift for you."
Thinking of Chang'an's playful look when she was talking to the emperor, Bei Mingxuan was still happy in his heart.
I have to admit it.
She knew her father too well.
It is obvious that Chang'an's approach made both the emperor and the empress dowager very satisfied.
Chang'an had already started preparing the gift for the emperor.
Bei Ming Ye also had some guesses in his mind. He also saw the subtle look between the emperor and Chang'an.
I have to say that Chang'an just now made people yearn for it. How could I have lost such a beautiful woman in the first place?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but remember that it was all Gu Shijia's fault. If Gu Shijia hadn't ruined things, Chang'an would have been the consort of the Fourth Prince.
Especially when she saw how much she was loved by the emperor and the empress dowager, she actually felt jealous.
