It is really strange that the Holy Emperor restrained Concubine Rong suddenly.
Mammy said with emotion: "His Royal Highness is still very powerful. I think there must be a reason for His Highness to do this."
The queen pursed her lips. She was relieved that Youer was doing things. Although she didn't know why, now that Concubine Rong's right to co-manage the Sixth Palace had been stripped away by the Holy Emperor, she no longer needed to worry.
Concubine Xiao Shu has a gentle and open-minded temperament and will only try to help her and has no intention of competing for the back position, so she doesn't have to worry.
I have to say that Youer has done her mother a big favor by doing this.
Thinking about it, the queen turned back and asked her mother: "Today's Dragon Boat Festival Palace Banquet, will Mu Qingyan come into the palace?"
"This..." Mammy hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I seem to have heard that Miss Mu and Miss Jiang from the Prime Minister's Mansion have gone out of the city. I'm afraid that none of their brothers and sisters will be here today."
"Leave the city? What are they doing out of the city?" the queen was surprised.
"Your Majesty, I don't know. There is a small town outside the capital that holds a dragon boat race every year. I wonder where they have gone. I'm afraid they have already arrived."
The queen nodded, "Mu Qingyan has just grown hairpins, so it's understandable that she's so playful."
It's a pity, I still want to see her.
Mammy has been with the queen for many years, and she can guess the master's thoughts at a glance. She asked with a smile: "Is the empress wanting to take this opportunity to let His Highness the Crown Prince and Miss Mu be alone?"
The Queen nodded, then walked into the room and sat down, "This girl is indeed worthy of You'er. The Japanese Palace sees that she is well-educated and sensible, neither humble nor arrogant. She is indeed a young girl."
"It's just..." She frowned, "There is no smoke without fire. I had heard about the incident between her and King Qi before, but I saw that You'er was very protective of her that day. She is not without affection for You'er. "
"Your Majesty, Miss Mu may be too well protected by the prince, and it is inevitable to be pampered. You see, the relationship between the two of them has been so good since they came back from Linggu Temple." Mammy comforted her, after all, Miss Mu is His Highness the Crown Prince. The person who is at the top of my heart.
Grandma also watched Bailiyou grow up, so she naturally wanted to favor him and help him speak up.
The queen sighed, "Youer is my son, so I naturally believe in him. Fortunately, he also likes Mu Qingyan. He was given a marriage when he was six years old. I am really worried."
The one who is afraid is Mu Qingyan, who is the legitimate daughter of the Mu family, and with the entire Mu family behind her, there may be constant conflicts.
"Your Majesty, you can feel at ease now." Mammy gently squeezed the Queen's shoulders, "The Imperial Preceptor specifically mentioned this matter when he left seclusion this time. Since the Imperial Preceptor said so, it must be a good marriage. , Miss Mu will definitely bring good luck to His Highness the Crown Prince."
The Imperial Preceptor never cared about this, but he was indeed the one who suggested the Crown Princess to the Holy One. The Imperial Preceptor must have his reasons for doing this.
"This is also the reason why I want to bring them together. I will give you all the support I can. Wherever I can help, I will naturally try my best to help."
Even if she is the daughter of the Mu family.
The queen looked outside thoughtfully. Seeing this, the nanny also shut up and stopped disturbing her.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived——"
The sudden raised voice brought the queen back from her thoughts.
The queen looked over and saw that Bailiyou walked steadily in front of her and greeted her respectfully, "Queen Mother."
"Come and sit here, why are you willing to come to see your mother today?" The queen glared at him and was a little dissatisfied. He didn't come much in the past few days. She also sent someone to invite him, but he didn't come.
Bailiyou sat next to him, "My son has been a little busy recently, so it is inconvenient to disturb my mother."
"Well, the queen knows that you are busy, so there is no need to go out to see the queen. The queen is not an unreasonable person," the queen said.
Bailiyou nodded, his eyes fell on the basket on the table, "This is?"
"They are rice dumplings made by Rou'er herself. I sent some to my mother. Do you want to try one? They are still warm."
After the queen finished speaking, Bailiyou shook his head and said, "I'm not hungry."
Mammy glanced at the queen and said, "Your Highness, just try one."
It has been a long time since the empress sat down to have a meal with His Highness the Crown Prince.
Although the queen did not speak, her eyes showed a little bit of expectation. Bailiyou nodded, and a smile suddenly appeared on the queen's face.
Grandma immediately went to prepare the dishes and chopsticks, and the Queen and Baili You also sat at the table.
The palace maid peeled the rice dumplings and put them in a bowl. Nanny said, "This is made by the third princess herself. None of the slaves are as lucky as this."
The queen picked up the chopsticks, picked off a piece and put it into Bailiyou's bowl, "Have a taste."
"Thank you, Queen Mother," Bailiyou said, and then took the bite under the Queen's hopeful gaze.
Well, it looks like an ordinary rice dumpling.
However, looking at the queen's eyes, Bailiyou nodded, "The queen will also try it."
As he spoke, he also picked up a piece and put it into the queen's bowl.
In an instant, the queen's eyes lit up.
Mammy also had a smile on her face. In fact, the empress was very easy to satisfy, but it was a pity that His Highness the Crown Prince was too cold-tempered, and he was no exception when it came to treating the empress, the queen.
The two rice dumplings were quickly shared. Both of them had already eaten and couldn't eat anymore, so they asked the palace maid to take the things away.
Bailiyou seemed to be sitting there without any sign of leaving, which surprised the queen. She knew that her son would not sit with her for too long without doing anything.
Do you really want to accompany her? The queen thought.
After thinking about it, she decided to find someone to chat with, so she tentatively said, "It seems that Mu Yatou will not attend the palace banquet."
Sure enough, Bailiyou's expression softened when he mentioned Mu Qingyan, "She went out to play in the city."
In fact, he also wanted to accompany Yan'er, but he had to attend the palace banquet, otherwise he could also go and enjoy the night view with Yan'er.
The queen was angry: "You are well informed. You should restrain yourself. After all, you are not married yet. Although your mother supports you, you must also consider your father's mood."
The Holy One doesn't like the Mu family in the first place.
Bailiyou pursed his lips and said calmly: "Queen mother, Yan'er is the princess of my son, I should pamper her."
He was already restraining himself, and everyone knew that Yan'er would become his Crown Princess in the near future. She had been carrying the title of quasi-Crown Princess since she was a child, and she was already his.
As his wife, he dotes on her as a matter of course and does not need anyone else to comment.
The Queen suddenly choked up and said, "No matter how much you favor me, you must be restrained. In front of outsiders, be more restrained. After all, you are the prince."
What does it look like for a dignified prince to focus on a woman every day?
At that time, Yan'er will become a disaster for beauty.
Bailiyou had a dumbfounded face, as if he was indifferent. Anyway, he was right. This life was all about Yan'er. What else could he do if he didn't care about her?
He doesn't need this prince. In his last life, he chose to abandon Yan'er in the world. This time he will only choose Yan'er.
