The Queen Mother was really angry after hearing what Murong Yu said. Because she knew that Murong Yu liked Yan'er very much. After Xi'er came back, Murong Yu did not waver in his kindness to Yan'er. Because Yan'er is a sensible little girl, there is no smoke without fire, Yan'er
I will not trouble Concubine Jing for no reason.
The Queen Mother's eyes were very sharp. After glancing at Concubine Jing who was hiding behind Murong Yu, she didn't look angry, and her tone of voice was also very gentle. She only heard the Queen Mother say: "Really? Your Majesty, what do you mean?
Do you want to stop pursuing Yan'er's willfulness? However, the Ai family feels that Yan'er is right. As a concubine, it's just that she doesn't understand the rules. She thinks about running to the Yangxin Palace all day long. The Yangxin Palace is hers.
His palace? That is the place where His Majesty has to deal with official business. How is it appropriate? Yan'er did a good job. What the Ai family didn't expect was that the emperor actually reprimanded Yan'er for this."
"Mother, you are showing favoritism to Yan'er. Even if Concubine Jing has no rules, I should be punished. After all, Concubine Jing is considered her elder and her mother-in-law. In terms of seniority..." Unfortunately, Murong
Before Yu could finish his words, he was snatched away by the Queen Mother.
"Does it count as seniority? Does the emperor want to say that she is Yan'er's aunt according to seniority? Let's not mention the identity of the aunt in your mouth, just say that our Yan'er is a golden branch and a jade leaf. Those concubines who have children in the palace, call them
It's understandable to say that mother and concubine are affectionate. Have you ever seen the concubines in that house who are called mothers? They can only be called aunts. There are a lot of unpleasant words. The Ai family wants to give you face, so I won't say more.
, does the Emperor think she is qualified to be Yan'er's mother-in-law? Can she bear it? The Emperor knows her origins well, and still wants to use that to calculate seniority?" The Queen Mother spoke clearly in one breath,
It actually left the emperor speechless.
The Queen Mother looked at Murong Yu, obviously with a little disappointment in her eyebrows. She always felt how outstanding the son in front of her was. She didn't feel it was a pity when Wei'er gave up the throne. After all, either of the two brothers was good enough to be emperor. But
Now, she only felt that Murong Yu was getting more and more confused by the woman in front of him. The more he looked at him, the more angry he became. No wonder Yan'er was so angry.
Yes, everyone knows that Concubine Jing's life experience is fake. How could he be so confused that he actually used this as an excuse? That day, Yan'er suddenly changed her face and acted willfully with him. He even asked Yan'er to give Jing a favor.
The concubine apologized.
Murong Yu did not look at Concubine Jing, but was a little lost in thought. Seeing Murong Yu's appearance, Concubine Jing's eyes flashed with a hint of calculation, and then she knelt on the ground with a plop, and then kowtowed to the Queen Mother. This
After knocking his head down, he knelt on the ground and did not get up.
When Murong Yu heard the sound, he reacted and was startled by Concubine Jing's kneeling. He stretched out his hand to help Concubine Jing, but Concubine Jing refused to get up. Instead, he said very respectfully: "Queen Mother, Qian
Every mistake is Mi'er's fault. You must not create any quarrel with His Majesty. Mi'er will not come to Yangxin Hall every day in the future. Mi'er knows that he was wrong. Mi'er should not have offended Her Highness the Princess.
It's Mi'er who didn't keep his duty and didn't understand the rules. You and His Majesty are mother and son, so there's no way there would be an overnight feud. You can punish Mi'er however you want, but don't get into any trouble because of Mi'er." These words made the Queen Mother express her gratitude.
She stared at Yuan Mi'er as if she were watching a play. It was very interesting. What Concubine Jing said was very accurate. No matter how you looked at it, it looked like the Queen Mother had gone to the Yangxin Hall and caused a lot of trouble.
But Murong Yu didn't think so, because he suddenly felt a little distressed when he saw Concubine Jin kneeling on the ground to beg her mother for mercy because she was afraid that the mother and son would be upset. It was all his fault. It was probably because of the genealogy thing in Yangxin Hall that day.
, Yan'er was a little angry. But
Why did Yan'er not ask him to explain afterwards, but chose to complain to the Queen Mother? This was good, because it was not Mi'er's fault in the first place, but she had to bear these things.
Seeing Concubine Jing cry so pitifully, her little face turned pale with fright. Yes, how had Concubine Jing ever seen such a battle? It looked like she must be frightened. So, he said anxiously: "Mother, this is
The matter was indeed my fault and had nothing to do with Mi'er. I really shouldn't have used the Prime Minister's house to provoke Yan'er that day, and I shouldn't have scolded Yan'er. However, Yan'er can tell me later why I went to mess with you.
Are you angry?"
"Hmph, Yan'er has not left Yunzhong Palace at all since she left the gate of Yangxin Palace. How could she go to the Aijia to complain? It's just that there was too much noise that day, and it reached the ears of the old woman from the Aijia.
I was so angry that I couldn't help but want to see if the rumors were true. As expected, this old woman of the Ai family really learned a lot. The emperor was not like this before. Why did you accuse Yan'er unjustly before the matter was found out?
Don't you understand Yan'er's temper? She has always been filial, so why would she bother me, an old woman, because of this matter?" Seeing that the emperor was in a mood, the Queen Mother said, of course, she taught him a lesson unceremoniously.
However, before the emperor could speak, he saw Eunuch Shun walking in in a panic and said, "Your Majesty, it's bad, Princess Yan is missing."
Everyone in the palace was shocked. When did Yan'er disappear? But Concubine Jing's eyes showed a light of gloating.
"What happened? Where will Yan'er be if she's not in Yunzhong Palace? She can't get out of the palace, so let me find her." Murong Yu said worriedly. Xi'er disappeared, and Yan'er disappeared again. Could this make him not worried?
?
"Back to Your Majesty, the maid who just came to the gate of Yangxin Hall is the maid next to the Queen Mother. She followed the Queen Mother's order and gave Princess Yan some snacks, but found that the princess was not in Yunzhong Hall at all. Because she knew that the Queen Mother was in Yangxin Hall,
So I came here to report this matter in a hurry. As for the palace people in Yunzhong Palace, it seems they don't know where Her Royal Highness the Princess has gone." Eunuch Shun repeated what the palace maid said.
The Queen Mother looked at Murong Yu and said coldly: "Xi'er has not been found, and you have broken Yan'er's heart. If the Ai family were Yan'er, they would also leave the palace. Her mother-in-law is no longer there, do you know
How sad is she? It's so easy for a sister who is kind to her and cares about her safety, but you reprimand her for being a woman. Your Majesty, you have disappointed the Ai family so much. If Yan'er and Xi'er can't be found,
The Ai family returned to the temple and never came back again."
Murong Yu asked Eunuch Shun to bring over the maid from Yunzhong Palace for questioning, and then he helped Concubine Jing up. Then he said to the Queen Mother: "Mother, I know I made a mistake. Finding Yan'er's whereabouts first is more important than anything else."
Importantly, if you want to punish Concubine Jing, then wait until you find Yan'er before punishing her, okay?"
How could the Queen Mother be in the mood to punish Concubine Jing now? Xi'er fell into the water and disappeared, and Yan'er disappeared in the palace. How could she not be impatient? Seeing that Murong Yu's tone softened, she relaxed and said, "Isn't the Ai family here?
The purpose of raising an army to investigate the crime is just to remind the emperor. The most important thing now is to find Yan'er, nothing else is important."
"Yes. That's what the Queen Mother said." Murong Yu also breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, the two maids from Yunzhong Palace also arrived at the door of Yangxin Palace and were brought in by Eunuch Shun. They saluted respectfully and said: "See your Majesty, see the Queen Mother, see..."
Murong Yu waved his hand and said: "Okay, don't do these false etiquette, I ask you, why is Her Royal Highness not in Yunzhong Palace? Princess
If you are not in the palace, why didn’t anyone report this matter to me?”
One of the relatively calm palace maids blessed the emperor, and then said: "Your Majesty, Her Royal Highness the Princess was in a very bad mood that day after she came back from the Yangxin Palace. She also ordered the slaves and others not to go in to serve. It was only about one.
After an hour, the princess told her maids that the emperor had decreed that she should shut herself up and think about her mistakes, and not step out of the Yunzhong Hall. If it was meal time, she would be sent to the hall, and she could not be disturbed if she had nothing to do. In the past few days, the maids had sent her to the hall.
The princess did not touch the food that was brought in. However, the slave did not expect that the princess would disappear. Because when something happened to Emperor Yuan's concubine, the princess also locked herself in the palace without eating or drinking. If Princess Jingruo hadn't appeared, I'm afraid
The princess never recovered. The maid thought that this time the princess might be the same as last time, so she didn't dare to disturb the princess. Unexpectedly, today the maid from the Queen Mother's Palace came to bring cakes to the princess and said she must see her.
When the princess arrived, she said that the Queen Mother had something to tell Her Royal Highness. The servant went in to inform her, but there was no sound at all. The servant was anxious and rushed in. As a result, she found that the palace was empty. The servant went in with other maids to look around.
Only then did I realize that the princess has actually disappeared." It was obvious that the two palace maids looked very anxious.
In fact, Murong Yan had briefly told the two palace maids in advance that she was going to find Murong Xi, and asked them to keep it a secret. She even gave the palace maid this idea, making it impossible to guess how she disappeared.
of.
"Where did Yan'er go? You can be angry with me as much as you like, but why is she missing?" Murong Yu murmured to himself.
The Queen Mother became even more angry after hearing what the palace maid said.
Yan'er actually locked herself in Yunzhong Palace without eating or drinking when something happened to Emperor Yuan's imperial concubine. They actually had no idea how Yan'er survived this incident.
If Xi'er hadn't appeared at that time, would she have discovered that Yan'er had... The Queen Mother couldn't imagine how things would develop. However, she could tell that Murong Yu didn't understand the palace maid's words at all, and just ignored them.
She complained about Murong Yan. So, she said calmly: "Your Majesty, Yan'er is not angry with you, she is sad. She no longer has her mother-in-law, and she finally got over this hurdle. Something happened to Xi'er again, but you still didn't show up that day
Reprimand her. Can that child bear this? Now is not the time to blame Yan'er, the most important thing is to get her back first."
Murong Yu finally came to his senses. Yes, he knew that Yan'er was very sensible. As for the matter of the Yuan Emperor's Concubine, Yan'er didn't know anything about it. But when he heard that the Yuan Emperor's Concubine had committed an unforgivable crime, Murong Yan just
She locked herself up in Yunzhong Temple without seeing anyone. She felt that she was sorry for those people, not just angry with him. And even after such a big thing happened, Yan'er didn't even ask for mercy from him.
But this time she was anxious because after Xi'er returned to the palace, she treated Yan'er as her own sister. If something happened to her this time, Yan'er would be anxious. However, he did not understand Murong Yan's mood, but blindly favored Jing.
concubine.
"Yan'er should still be in the palace, but I don't know where she is hiding. Eunuch Shun, send someone to look for her." Murong Yu said anxiously.
Seeing that Murong Yu's attitude was quite good, the Queen Mother said, "Your Majesty, please be busy first. If you have any news about Yan'er, be sure to inform the Ai family. The Ai family will go back to Xiangfu Palace first."
After saying these words, the Queen Mother took her mother back to Xiangfu Palace.
"Queen Mother, is Princess Yan really still in the palace?" Mammy asked in a low voice.
