Chapter 295 Control and Manipulation

Yesterday's palace banquet made Yunqin a little tired, and she didn't recover even after a night's rest. She was just about to go back to the palace to catch up on her sleep.

But he happened to run into the eunuch who was coming to Yuqian.

"Empress Xi, the Emperor has summoned you to accompany him."

Yun Qin responded calmly, "I will change my clothes and go to the front of the palace. You can go back and tell the emperor."

But she already had many guesses in her mind.

Or maybe it was because he favored Concubine Shen last night and asked her to come over today to give her a sweet treat.

Either he had something to discuss with her, or Concubine De finally made some unusual move?

You can't ask her to take care of the children again, right?

After returning to Anlan Palace and changing clothes, Yun Qin went straight to Yu.

But unexpectedly, on the way, I happened to see the nanny beside the eldest prince being sent away.

Nanny Lin was carrying a bundle on her back and was wearing ordinary people's clothes. Without the decent palace dress, she seemed to have aged a few years.

The eldest prince was saying goodbye to her at this time, with tears on his face.

They had already reached the front palace road, and the eldest prince didn't know how long he had been accompanying her.

Nanny Lin was also in tears at this time. She held the eldest prince's hand with one hand and wiped her tears with the other hand. "It's because I am useless and can't serve Your Highness anymore. There will be other Nannies by your side in the future. Don't be too sad."

She told the prince not to be too sad, but she didn't let him leave. Instead, she kept holding his hand. She probably knew why she was leaving, and she was sensible enough not to say much in front of the prince.

The eldest prince was obviously very dependent on her, "Madam Lin, I will go and ask my father to let you live in the palace until you grow old."

"I am satisfied with your words, Your Highness." Nanny Lin began to wipe her tears again, "If I am gone, who will make your favorite lotus cake for Your Highness?"

When the eldest prince heard this, he cried even more sadly, "Madam Lin, please don't leave. I will go and beg my father now."

Yun Qin finally figured it out. It was obvious that Nanny Lin was deliberately instigating the eldest prince to go and cause trouble with the emperor!

Seeing that the eldest prince was crying more and more sadly and was about to turn around and go to the Qinzheng Palace, Yun Qin immediately called out to him.

When he turned around and saw her, the eldest prince stopped and saluted her, "Empress Xi."

Yun Qin stepped down from the sedan chair and glanced at Nanny Lin.

When Nanny Lin saw that it was her, she looked at her with vigilance and subtle hatred.

He is truly a loyal servant...

Yun Qin then looked at the eunuchs and palace maids following the eldest prince, and said angrily, "You are all dead. You let His Highness bask in the sun like this. How can you be a servant like this?"

He was talking about them, but was scolding Nanny Lin.

As she spoke, she took the umbrella from Rong Xin's hand, held it over the eldest prince's head, and asked, "What happened?"

The eldest prince wiped his eyes and choked up a little, "This is Nanny Lin beside me. She is old, and my father sent her to a nursing home to grow old. But, but I don't want her to leave."

Seeing that he was crying so pitifully, Yun Qin squatted down, took out a handkerchief and wiped his tears.

"So that's how it is. No wonder Your Highness is so sad."

The eldest prince cried even harder when someone comforted him. "Empress Xi, can you help me talk to my father and ask him not to let Nanny Lin go?"

"I know your Highness is reluctant to part with Nanny Lin, but look at Nanny Lin, she is indeed old, and her waist is bent from fatigue." She wiped the eldest prince's tears and said softly, "She has been a slave all her life, it's time for her to leave the palace and enjoy a peaceful life, right?"

The eldest prince glanced at Nanny Lin and saw that her waist was indeed bent and she had a lot of white hair on her head. He was a kind-hearted child and immediately felt a little bit sorry for her and his tears gradually stopped flowing.

Nanny Lin saw it and immediately said, "I don't feel tired serving Your Highness, and I don't want to enjoy myself. I just want to serve Your Highness well."

"Madame Lin, what you said is really wrong. If you insist on staying, will you serve the Crown Prince, or will the people around the Crown Prince serve you?" Yun Qin looked at her coldly, "If you really get hurt, won't it make the Crown Prince even more sad?"

This also woke up the eldest prince. Without waiting for Nanny Lin to say anything, he took the lead and said, "Nanny, the queen is right. Don't work yourself to death. You should leave the palace and enjoy your life."

Although there was still reluctance in his eyes, he had already made up his mind.

His words choked back all the words that Nanny Lin was about to say. She had seen that the eldest prince was about to make trouble for the emperor, but then Concubine Xi came and all her previous efforts were wasted.

"Your Highness, I am worried even if I leave!" She started to cry again, looking at Yun Qin with half-lidded eyes, but her expression was full of resentment. "Your Highness, have you forgotten that Concubine De is still suffering in the palace? It's all because of Concubine Xi. How can you listen to her and really drive me away?"

"If I leave, Your Highness will be deceived by me forever!"

Tingchun immediately said angrily: "You old hag, you are so bold, you dare to say that my queen is a villain!"

Seeing that the eldest prince looked at a loss, Yun Qin stood up and handed the umbrella in her hand to the palace maid beside her.

Now that it came to this, Yun Qin no longer cared. She looked at Nanny Lin and said coldly, "If you don't want to leave, go and ask the emperor in person. Why are you instigating the eldest prince to ask the emperor?"

The emperor did not tell the eldest prince the real reason. Of course, he was still concerned about the importance of Nanny Lin in the eldest prince's heart.

I don't want to make the eldest prince sad, but given the current situation, I have to let him know the true face of this old hag.

Nanny Lin was naturally speechless after hearing this, and the eldest prince looked up at Yun Qin. Although he still didn't understand why she said that Nanny Lin was instigating him, he could feel that she was protecting him.

"You keep saying that Concubine De is suffering in the palace because of me. Not to mention that the palace has become a place of suffering in your mouth, Concubine De cannot come to the palace. Isn't it because the emperor has entrusted her with an important task to take care of the affairs of the harem? What does it have to do with me?"

Yun Qin said these words to the eldest prince.

Although he is young, he is not someone who cannot tell right from wrong.

Yun Qin also didn't want him to be deceived and exploited.

The eldest prince looked up at her again and said to Nanny Lin, "Yes, Nanny, this has nothing to do with Concubine Xi." As he spoke, he leaned closer to Yun Qin.

Children may not understand anything, and often they only rely on instinct to do things, but it is this instinct that can help them to keenly perceive who is truly good to them.

Maybe the eldest prince himself couldn't explain it clearly, but he just felt that Yun Qin would not harm him.

Nanny Lin was so angry that she almost vomited blood. She couldn't even cry anymore. Her voice was a little shrill. "Your Highness, how can you say that? Are you worthy of the Queen? She is your mother. She worked so hard to take care of you. She missed you so much that she cried every day. Is this how you repay her?"

Yun Qin wanted to slap her in the face. This old woman was so shameless that she didn't even give a direct answer, but used such vicious words to seize and control a child!

But she is the eldest prince's nanny after all. If she really slaps him, all the reasons she has been explaining to the eldest prince for so long will be in vain.

In fact, others may have forgotten it, but he still remembers it.

When the two met for the first time, he ate a snack with peanuts in it and felt like he couldn't breathe. It was she who stretched out her hand and greeted the people who gathered around her. From the first moment they met, he knew that this lady was truly good to him.

Others may have forgotten, but he himself remembers.

She kept muttering that there were other people around him, as if she was afraid that the eldest prince would forget about her.

"Your Highness,"
