Chapter 119: Life, life, life, what the hell!
“…”
“…”
Mu Nanzhou and Li Qiuer were both choked to death by Xu Yanyi's audacious words.
Li Qiuer pinched herself in anger, her eyes red with pain, and then she said, "Princess Nanling, isn't it an insult to me and my cousin when you say that?"
"You two were hugging each other in the street just now, which was already inappropriate. Who is insulting who?"
Xu Yanyi said speechlessly.
Li Qiuer was anxious: "How can you say that? I know you don't like me, hate me, and can't tolerate me. If that's the case, then I..."
"What about you? Are you not going to get married?"
Xu Yanyi raised her eyebrows and said lazily.
"I……"
Li Qiuer wished she could kill Xu Yanyi!
"Hey, stop pretending. Just because Mu Nanzhou can't see through you doesn't mean I can't see through you. Why are you pretending to be kind and generous? In fact, you must have been sick to death in your heart. You have long wanted to replace me, the Princess of Nanling, right?"
Xu Yanyi said straightforwardly, "I don't care about you guys anymore. I'm going to the palace first, lest it gets dark. I have to come out of the palace later to have a good sleep!"
After saying that, Xu Yanyi raised the whip swiftly, gave a sweet whistle, and the horse immediately galloped out.
Damn it!
This woman just left like that!
Mu Nanzhou was so angry that his head hurt!
Li Qiuer looked at Mu Nanzhou aggrievedly: "Cousin, look at what she said..."
"Don't worry about her. She's a vicious and shameless woman."
Mu Nanzhou held Li Qiu'er tightly, holding her in his arms, and ordered in a cold voice, "Enter the palace!"
*When Mu Nanzhou and Li Qiuer arrived at the palace, Xu Yanyi had already drunk a pot of tea in the Queen Mother's bedroom.
The eunuch screamed: "Prince Nanling is here, Li Qiuer is here!"
The little emperor was playing chess with Xu Yanyi. He suddenly looked up and asked, "Why is Li Qiu'er here?"
Li Qiuer was a commoner. According to the rules, she needed the order of the empress dowager or the emperor to enter the palace. Mu Nanzhou brought her into the palace without any regard for the little emperor and the empress dowager.
The Queen Mother's face immediately darkened: "Li Qiu'er? Did I ask her to come?"
Li Qiuer just followed in and heard these words. She was so scared that she lowered her eyebrows and hid behind Mu Nanzhou.
Mu Nanzhou turned around and looked at her, indicating that he was there for her and she didn't need to be nervous.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness."
Mu Nanzhou bowed.
The little emperor ordered someone to give them seats, but Xu Yanyi acted as if they were invisible. She didn't even raise her head, just staring at the chessboard. At most, she reached out to take a sip of tea from the cup.
The Queen Mother glanced at Li Qiu'er, then at Xu Yanyi, and suddenly smiled and said, "Miss Li is from a humble family after all. Now that you are here, you should stop being so shy. Don't you understand the rules?"
Xu Yanyi was slightly stunned when she heard this, then she realized that Li Qiuer was so focused on hiding behind Mu Nanzhou that she even forgot the etiquette of paying respects to the Emperor and the Empress Dowager. If it weren't for Mu Nanzhou's protection, the Empress Dowager would have had her dragged out and beheaded!
Li Qiuer shuddered all over and her legs immediately went limp.
Seeing that she was about to kneel down, Mu Nanzhou pulled her up with one hand and said calmly: "To answer the Queen Mother, Qiu'er was not feeling well and forgot the rules for a while. I hope the Queen Mother will forgive me."
This move was a slap in the face of the Queen Mother.
Mu Nanzhou is too arrogant!
The Queen Mother stood up. Xu Yanyi thought she was going to get mad, but the next moment she said to Xu Yanyi calmly, "I have just told Princess Nanling about my situation. Now that Prince Nanling is here, Princess Nanling, please go with me to see the statue."
After saying this, the empress dowager led her people forward with a sullen face, not wanting to pay any attention to Mu Nanzhou and Li Qiuer.
Xu Yanyi raised her eyebrows and followed the Queen Mother out.
When passing by Mu Nanzhou, Mu Nanzhou whispered to her: "Xu Yanyi, you better be alert and don't cause trouble!"
Xu Yanyi rolled her eyes at him in disdain: "I'll be very grateful if you and your mistress don't hold me back!"
"you!"
Mu Nanzhou's face darkened even more.
The little emperor was quite calm and said with a gentle smile: "Prince Nanling, Miss Li, please sit down for a while. The chefs in my palace have recently developed several new dishes. I will ask them to cook them for you to try."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Mu Nanzhou agreed expressionlessly.
* Treasure House.
Although the Queen Mother also had that kind of statue, she did not place it in her own bedroom. For many years, it was kept in the treasure house in the palace and had no effect on her at all.
Besides, even if Xu Yanyi is not a doctor, the empress dowager’s expression doesn’t look that bad.
It seems that Xu Yanyi guessed correctly. The Queen Mother deliberately found an excuse to let her enter the palace.
But whether or not to embarrass Princess Shuyun because of her affairs, this...
Xu Yanyi had just thought about this when the Queen Mother spoke: "Most of the treasures in the Treasure Pavilion were collected by the late emperor over the years. When you got married, the late emperor picked out nearly half of them from the Treasure Pavilion for you as your dowry. If it weren't for the rebellion, you and Prince Nanling would have been a pair of fairy lovers that everyone envied..."
Um?
What does the Queen Mother mean by saying this at this time?
Xu Yanyi didn't say anything. The Queen Mother's progress bar was pitch black. It was obvious that the Queen Mother was not a good person, but what did she want to do?
The Queen Mother saw Xu Yanyi lowering her eyebrows, and suddenly she pointed at her flat belly and said, "If you give birth to a legitimate son for Prince Nanling, will Li Qiu'er still be so arrogant?"
puff……
The corner of Xu Yanyi's mouth twitched. The original owner and Mu Nanzhou did not consummate their marriage. Now it was even more impossible for her to do so. There was no chance of giving birth!
I think so, but I can't answer it like that.
Xu Yanyi still knows her limits.
After a moment of silence, Xu Yanyi pretended to be reserved and said, "If the prince doesn't like me, then I can't... be too proactive."
"I understand what you mean. It's been three years, and you still haven't consummated your marriage?"
The Queen Mother spoke immediately.
Xu Yanyi whispered: "Queen Mother, I can't just consummate the marriage just because I want to. You can see that he is so absorbed in Li Qiu'er that he doesn't have any feelings for me anymore. Sometimes I think that I should just divorce him..."
"Nonsense!"
The Queen Mother scolded, "Prince Nanling has a large army under his command. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for him if you divorced him?"
"Then, then I..."
Xu Yanyi acted extremely embarrassed and at a loss again.
The Queen Mother's eyes turned cold and she gave the nanny beside her a look.
Soon, the nanny came and handed over a small bottle: "Princess, this is a gift from the Queen Mother. It will add to the fun of your life with Prince Nanling."
hiss!
Xu Yanyi reacted after just one look.
Good guys!
This is asking her to give Mu Nanzhou...drugs in a legitimate way?
What exactly is the Queen Mother planning?
After all, you are an elderly person, do you really need to use this trick? Were people in ancient times so fierce?
Xu Yanyi reminded him awkwardly: "But Queen Mother, you asked me to come to the palace today. Didn't you want me to help you look at the statue?"
