Your elder brother has been waiting for you here for a long time."
Murong Xiao's eyes lit up, but he still considered etiquette. After greeting the queen, he asked, "Brother? Why are you here?"
Murong Qingyun was very happy about the joy Murong Xiao showed when she saw him.
"Today I went to the palace to deliver something for my father, but unexpectedly I ran into the Empress. Coincidentally, the Empress said you would also be entering the palace today, so I shamelessly stayed to wait for you."
"Xiao'er, come and sit down."
When the queen saw her son, who had a sad face, finally smiled, she was so happy that she wanted to dance. She immediately and enthusiastically ordered someone to find a seat for Murong Xiao.
After Murong Xiao sat down, the Queen immediately dismissed all the palace maids and eunuchs. The three of them sat at the table, and from a distance they looked very happy.
"Xiao'er, how are you doing in the Prince's Mansion? You and him...he..." Murong Qingyun really wanted to ask Murong Xiao whether she and Qian Yeming had consummated their marriage after two days of not seeing each other. However, halfway through her words, she remembered that she had been angry about the examination she had done on Murong Xiao, and she did not dare to continue.
Murong Xiao knew what he was going to ask and looked at the queen with some embarrassment, meaning: Sorry, it's not convenient to answer.
The Queen understood and immediately said, "Xiao'er, you must have asked your father about the secret that your mother told you last time, right? So, you don't have to worry about anything in front of your mother. Just answer whatever Qingyun asks you."
Seeing that Murong Xiao still didn't dare to speak out, the Queen sighed and said, "Alas...it's all my fault that I, Queen Mother, was so nosy and gave you to Ming'er. If you had explained everything to me earlier, this wouldn't have happened."
"Things have already been done wrong, what's the point of saying these things now!" Murong Qingyun became angry after hearing the queen's words, and spoke in a bad tone.
If Qian Yeming dared to speak to the Queen in such a tone, she was sure that the Queen would slap him. But Murong Qingyun was different. He was the Queen's most beloved son. Even if he attacked the Queen with even more vicious words, the Queen would only cry in anger and be unable to do anything to him.
"Qingyun, don't speak to the Queen Mother in that tone. The Queen Mother didn't mean it."
Murong Xiao's words made Murong Qingyun shut up. The queen, who was feeling aggrieved, looked at Murong Xiao with gratitude, and liked this daughter-in-law who spoke for her even more.
"Qingyun, if you really love Xiao'er, I will find a way to create an incident where the Crown Princess dies, so that Xiao'er can come back to you. How do you think?"
Murong Xiao noticed that when the Queen spoke to Murong Qingyun, she referred to herself as "mother", but when she spoke to Qian Yeming, she used the title "this palace".
Murong Xiao's heart was filled with anxiety. Seeing Murong Qingyun's eyes suddenly light up, she immediately rejected him before he could speak, "Mother, absolutely not."
"Why? Don't you want to go back to Qingyun?" the queen asked in confusion.
"Now Xiao'er gets along quite well with the Crown Prince, plus..." Murong Xiao glanced at the Queen and said, "Plus, my father asked Xiao'er to give him a drug that temporarily prevents him from getting an erection, so Xiao'er's life in the Crown Prince's Mansion is pretty good.
Last time, the Queen Mother and Father tried their best to promote Xiao'er's marriage with the Prince, but the Emperor was already unhappy. Even Xiao'er could see that the Emperor was extremely wary of the Murong family.
