After leaving the South Study, Chu Yan went to Fengqi Palace. Since the palace banquet, he had not seen the queen for several months.
After the emperor lifted the ban on Fengqi Palace, the queen still stayed in the palace. After the emperor came to visit late at night that day, the queen was not seen. The emperor came again two days later, but the queen was still missing. Although the emperor was angry, he considered that it would not be the same as before.
, he had no choice but to let the queen, who now had a powerful son as her backer, have no choice but to let her see him when she was happy.
After Chu Yan arrived at Fengqi Palace, Aunt He was waiting at the door with a smile.
When Grandma He saw Chu Yan, she quickly greeted him and said, "Your Majesty, the Seventh Highness, the Queen knew that you would come when she heard that you were going to court. Please come in quickly."
Chu Yan nodded.
Aunt He whispered, "Your Majesty came late at night a few days ago, but the Queen was nowhere to be seen. Your Majesty still unsealed Fengqi Palace. For the next two days, Your Majesty came here every day, but the Queen was still nowhere to be seen. After that, Your Majesty never came again.
”
Chu Yan nodded.
Arriving at the main hall, Grandma He opened the curtain and invited Chu Yan in.
When the queen heard the commotion, she walked out quickly and asked, "Is it Yan'er here?"
"It's me, Queen Mother." Chu Yan responded.
While he was answering, the queen had come out of the inner room and came to meet him. She looked him up and down, left and right, her eyes suddenly turned red, "It's because the queen is useless and can't protect you, so you suffer."
Chu Yan laughed and handed the queen a handkerchief. He said in a gentle tone with a smile, "When I grow up, I should protect my mother. It would be unfilial to let my mother suffer in the palace for several months."
"No matter how old he is, he is still a child." The queen burst into tears and smiled, "Besides, I haven't suffered much. I have been immersed in this palace for twenty years. If your majesty is still alive, no one in the palace will dare to do anything to me.
."
After a pause, the queen continued, "If the An family is not in ruins, neither you, my mother nor our son would dare to make things difficult for us."
Chu Yan nodded, helped the queen go inside, and said to him, "Grandpa is well fed and lived in my house. If the queen wants to see grandpa, she can just go out of the palace to see him."
The queen showed a childish expression, "Your grandfather must not want to see me, and there is no point in rejecting me."
Chu Yan laughed and said, "No, since my grandfather came to Beijing, he has always said that he was sorry for his mother and made you suffer by marrying you into the royal family."
The queen sighed, "Although your father is not a thing, I really don't feel that I have suffered in the past twenty years. After all, I am a queen, and I am a beautiful and beautiful person. My naturally weak body is all thanks to these years."
It’s not a loss to have him raised in the palace and to have a good son like you.”
Chu Yan said, "Since my mother thinks so, you must tell me when you meet my grandfather, otherwise my grandfather will always feel sorry for you and owe you a debt."
"Okay." The queen nodded.
Mother and son entered the inner hall chatting about their daily routine.
After chatting for a while, the queen asked about Chu Yan's life these days and how he went to Wufeng Mountain. Chu Yan said lightly, especially about Wufeng Mountain. He didn't want the queen to know that the emperor gave Chu Lan two hundred people to kill.
Him.
The queen is so smart. Even with just one or two sentences, combined with the clues she has buried in the palace over the years, she can vaguely get some information. A while ago, Chu Lan was so arrogant and the good concubine was so public. How did the emperor support Chu Lan?
, even the power to supervise the country was given to him. With Chu Lan’s suggestion, the emperor ordered Chu Yan not to give Chu Yan a single soldier and let him go to Wufeng Mountain to quell the chaos. Now that Chu Yan has returned intact, Chu Lan has removed the power to supervise the country.
, was held accountable and dismissed from all positions, and closed his door to reflect on his mistakes. It is conceivable what kind of bloodshed led to His Majesty being so humble today and Chu Yan dared to speak loudly in the court to release the eldest prince.
Everyone thought that after the private weapons-making case, the eldest prince had no hope of leaving the restricted area in his life. Who would have thought that in just three years, Chu Yan would rescue him in this way.
Although the queen had a vague understanding, she saw that Chu Yan didn't say anything and didn't ask any more questions. She changed the subject and asked, "Can someone clean the eldest prince's mansion?"
Three years ago, after the case of privately-made weapons occurred, people in the eldest prince's palace died and were dismissed. Not only the privately-made weapons depot was sealed, but the eldest prince's palace was also sealed. Now the eldest prince's palace can be said to have fallen into dust.
for three years.
"My son has sent people there, and the enclosure is not close. The eldest brother will return to Beijing tomorrow, and we can almost clean it up in this day." Chu Yan said.
The Queen nodded and sighed, "He secretly built an arsenal for the Nanyang Army. We were unable to protect him from death at first. Now that you have rescued him, you have done what you can."
Chu Yan nodded.
The queen said, "If I had known you were coming back yesterday, I wouldn't have asked your sister to ask Gu Qingyan to deliver a letter to little An'er. I would have left it to you."
Chu Yan asked, "What letter did the queen mother ask him to send to his cousin?"
"I haven't written to Xiao An'er for a few months. I want to ask her how she is doing." The queen said, "Originally I planned to go back to Nanyang to visit my relatives, but now that your grandfather has come to Beijing, I have no chance to go back and see her."
Chu Yan said, "If my mother wants to go back to Nanyang for a visit, you can also come with me to visit your relatives when my grandfather leaves Beijing and returns to Nanyang."
"Is this possible?" the queen asked, "I'm afraid your majesty won't agree."
"Okay, don't worry about whether the father agrees or not. If you want, my son will make arrangements, and you can follow my grandfather when he leaves Beijing." Chu Yan said, "My mother has been in the palace for twenty years and has not returned to Nanyang even once.
, it’s time to go back and take a look.”
The queen said, "Okay, then you can make arrangements! Now that you will no longer be bullied, your mother can rest assured even if she returns to Nanyang with your grandfather."
Chu Yan nodded and said softly, "Yes, no one bullies his son now."
Not even his good father can bully him. His brothers, not to mention, after Wufeng Mountain suppressed the rebellion, no one should dare to scream in front of him anymore.
The queen sighed, "After twenty years, I finally got through it."
Chu Yan looked at the queen with gentle eyes.
The Queen said again, "Yan'er, what do you think about your marriage? It's time for you to get married."

"My son, don't be in a hurry. Mother, please make arrangements for your sister's marriage first," Chu Yan said.
The queen looked at him and saw that he was not interested in her marriage at all, and she did not force it. She followed his words and said, "What do you think about Yun'er's marriage? I heard that Jiang Yunzhi refused to marry because of your sister.
The fourth princess?"
"He is just a way to reject it in front of the father. Don't take it seriously, mother."
The queen said, "I have a list here. Xiao An'er accompanied Yun'er to look at it on the day of the palace banquet. She looked at a few people, but I didn't have time to find out. Now you have a look and find out, which one is suitable?"
With that said, the Queen asked Aunt He to bring out the list.
Chu Yan took the list and opened it, took a look at it, reached out and crossed out two names, "These two people have already made arrangements to get married during this period. The son will check out the remaining two people and then talk to the queen mother."
p>
The queen nodded, "Okay, anyway, these four people were all reported to me by her. We will check the character of the people she chose. We will choose one of them. She is a princess. She doesn't need a husband who is very capable. Anyway, it's okay."
I can’t stand the bullying.”
Chu Yan nodded.
The mother and son talked for a while and agreed that the queen would leave the palace tomorrow to meet the old Queen Nanyang at the Seventh Prince's Mansion. Chu Yan said goodbye and left Fengqi Palace.
Chu Yan left Fengqi Palace and walked not far when he met Chu Xiyun who had come to Fengqi Palace in a hurry.
When Chu Xiyun saw Chu Yan, her eyes lit up. She looked completely different from the very well-behaved emperor. She held up her skirt, ran a few steps quickly, and came to Chu Yan. Her whole face was filled with obvious emotions.
Joy, "Brother."
Chu Yan said "hmm".
Although Chu Yan has been in seclusion for the past few months to think about his past, he is not really isolated from the outside world, nor does he have any knowledge of the outside world. Therefore, he knows whether Chu Xiyun is doing well or not. Although it is not that good, it is not good either.
Which is bad, because she is very obedient and almost never comes out of the palace.
Chu Xiyun looked at him and said, "Brother, don't you miss me? Why don't you even smile when you see me?"
Chu Yan grimaced, "Where are your rules? I heard that you learned the rules well, but now that I've seen you, I didn't notice it."
Chu Xiyun: "..."
That's right, even if they haven't seen each other for several months, this is still her brother who always follows the rules.
She looked at Chu Yan speechlessly, pouted, took a step forward, reached out and tugged on his sleeve and shook it, "You know how to teach people with a straight face."
Chu Yan had no choice but to say, "Tell me, if you have anything to do, just say it. Don't be like a child asking for sweets. I don't have any."
Chu Xiyun: "..."
She didn't want candy!
She let go of Chu Yan's sleeves and whispered, "Brother, what did you tell your mother?"
Chu Yan looked at her and said, "I told you about your marriage. On the day of the palace banquet, you chose a few people. The Queen Mother asked me to check."
Chu Xiyun blinked her eyes, stretched out her claws and tugged on Chu Yan's sleeve, moved closer to her, and said in a voice that could only be heard by two people, "Brother, I don't want to be one of the selected people. I want to marry in Nanyang."
..."
"Huh?" Chu Yan looked down at her.
