The queen held the hand of a palace maid, wearing a very plain dress. Only the cuffs and collar were decorated with delicate Suzhou embroidery, making her look very gentle.
Upon seeing the Queen, Yun Xing quickly crawled over and clasped her head to the ground, "Your Majesty, I will serve you wholeheartedly from now on. Please save me."
She wanted to grab the queen's clothes, but under the queen's cold gaze, she dared not move.
"Your Majesty, in my opinion, is it okay to expel her from the palace?" She spoke to the emperor, but her eyes were always looking at her child tenderly.
This was the child she had desperately given birth to after more than eight months of pregnancy.
But in the first one or two days, she was still able to stay with the child every day.
But in the following month, the queen could only see the child once at noon and in the evening, no more than that.
Yan Chengyu also missed his mother. The reason why he didn't pay much attention to his father was that as a child, he rarely saw his mother.
"Ah, ah!" He let out a short, powerful cry, and arched his body against Emperor Mingxi's.
Seeing that both mother and son wanted to get closer to each other, Emperor Mingxi felt reluctant to let them go.
But he also handed the child to the queen.
The queen was a good person and used to love piling jewels on her body. His eyes hurt when he saw it. If the queen hadn't been pregnant with a baby, he wouldn't have dared to let her have any emotional fluctuations.
He had already taken off the jewels that hurt his eyes.
Now that I'm a mother, I look much better.
Emperor Mingxi nodded secretly, apparently knowing that those colors stimulated the prince.
"Yes." The emperor nodded slightly.
With her life secured, Yunxing collapsed on the ground.
But she was not satisfied.
What is that place outside the palace? Her parents were beasts. When she was a child, they wanted to sell her to a brothel.
It was only after her desperate plea that they sold her into the palace.
Now in this palace, the queen is her backer. Anyone who doesn't look up to her will have nothing if she leaves the palace.
And for the sake of her younger brother, will her parents let her go?
Yunxing shuddered.
"My Lady, I have served you for so many years, I really can't bear to leave you! Will you let me stay and serve you?"
Yan Chengyu widened his eyes. How could someone be so shameless?
It's obvious that he can't bear to live a life of showing off in front of his mother!
The queen couldn't help but smile when she saw the child's dilated pupils and how adorable he looked.
Yunxing was delighted, thinking that she could stay.
The Queen meticulously combed the Prince's hair. "I've known your thoughts for a long time. I spared your life out of our old friendship. Aren't you satisfied?"
Yan Chengyu secretly gave his mother a thumbs up. It seemed that his mother still had a good plan in mind.
Yun Xing dropped her hands weakly. It turned out that the Empress had always known what she wanted to do.
It just never happened to her.
Regret meandered like a river in her heart, pouring out of her eyes and falling to the ground in the form of tears.
It’s too late to regret!
If I had known this!
Yunxing's back, which had been straight up, hunched over. She leaned over and bowed three times to the queen, then followed the guards without saying a word.
Yan Chengyu thought Yun Xing would shamelessly beg her mother, but unexpectedly she still had some backbone.
But not much.
A certain prince made a sharp comment.
Emperor Mingxi raised his eyebrows, somewhat surprised. "I thought you would let bygones be bygones."
The Empress was born a maid, and apart from the Crown Prince, she had no one to rely on. Emperor Mingxi's decision to beat Yunxing to death was equivalent to cutting off her arm.
Moreover, the concubines in the harem would inevitably have some thoughts about this matter after hearing it.
For example, the emperor ordered the death of the chief palace maid just after the queen gave birth to the prince. Doesn't this mean that he was dissatisfied with the queen?
"Your Majesty, I am not so kind-hearted as a bodhisattva." Putting aside the fact that Yun Xing wanted to climb into bed, the queen would not tolerate her just based on her attitude of not caring about Yan Chengyu.
Her child is her lifeblood, her greatest source of confidence and support.
Seeing that the queen had grown bolder, Emperor Mingxi showed approval and said, "Since that's the case, you can go and help mother with the palace affairs. Learn well from her side, and I will leave the affairs of the harem in your hands from now on."
This was something Emperor Mingxi had thought about a long time ago. Without the power of the palace, the empress would inevitably be looked down upon by those dog slaves who bullied their master.
Since she is the prince's biological mother, she must receive all the honors she deserves.
"I thank your majesty, but Yu'er is still young. I want to take better care of him. Can I accompany Yu'er tonight?"
The queen's eyes flickered, revealing a hint of hope.
"Ahhh!" Yan Chengyu's hands kept clenching and his voice was loud.
Mother, I do.
He was so excited that the queen's somewhat uneasy heart calmed down.
Emperor Mingxi was unwilling to do so. He hadn't had his son for long. "Queen, it wasn't long since you gave birth. Your health hasn't recovered yet. The Queen Mother misses the prince so much. I'll take him to see the Queen Mother first."
The Queen Mother hasn't seen Yan Chengyu for a month as she is busy fulfilling a vow.
What if she didn't serve these Bodhisattvas and gods sincerely, and they just waved their hands and took her lovely grandson back to heaven?
So apart from sending people to ask three times a day, he didn't dare to see his missed grandson.
After a month had passed, she went to urge the emperor to bring her grandson over.
This also gave the emperor an excuse.
Yan Chengyu was dumbfounded, waving his hands. "Ahhhh!"
My cheap dad is so mean. Why doesn’t he let me sleep with my mom?
The emperor, who was hit in the face by his own son's little slap, ignored the servants who were trembling with fear and said, "You little heartless boy, I will take you to see your grandmother. Your grandmother has been guarding the Buddha for you. You must behave well in front of her."
Emperor Mingxi pinched his son's face. Now that there was a little more flesh on it, he found it addictive to touch.
