At the critical moment, the Queen Mother relaxed, which made Liu Jia very happy. At least the Queen Mother no longer had murderous intentions towards Ke'er.
But the Queen Mother sat in a daze on the phoenix chair, looking haggard...
"The Queen Mother..." Chun'er said worriedly.
"Queen Mother." Seeing the Queen Mother acting strangely, Liujia stepped forward to visit her mother.
Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother turned away thousands of miles away and said coldly: "Don't come here, get out. The Ai family doesn't want to see you."
"Queen Mother..." Liujia cried out in shame, feeling very sad. He knew that the Queen Mother was sad, and he knew that doing this would make the Queen Mother feel cold, but he had no choice. He really couldn't let Ke'er die. He said he would protect her.
hers.
"Go away." The Queen Mother yelled.
Chun'er said to Liu Jia: "Emperor, you should leave first. The Queen Mother is emotionally unstable now. She will come over when she feels better."
Lujia frowned and said, "Well, that's all we can do, thanks to Aunt Chun'er."
Chun'er nodded...
Liujia took Keer away...
After walking out of the palace, Ke'er was still crying, still feeling the shocking scene just now...
Ke'er let go of his hand and looked at Liujia: "Brother Liujia, how can I repay all the kindness you have done to me?"
"Just pledge yourself to me," Ryuka said jokingly.
"If you don't dislike it..." Ke'er really thought that she would be satisfied with whatever Lu Jia asked for.
But before she finished speaking, Luka interrupted: "Are you kidding me? Are you serious? I won't marry you, you are a crybaby."
Ke'er immediately burst into tears and started to laugh, chasing after Liu Jia and beating him: "Smelly Liu Jia, who do you think loves to cry, and who is a crybaby?"
Looking at Ke'er's smile, Liu Jia knew that she was fine, but what about the queen mother, how should she explain it?
As for Ke'er, he really wants to have it, but he hopes that Ke'er will volunteer one day instead of being moved by him and feeling guilty towards him.
I hope he can wait for this day...
Zhuque Palace
The Queen Mother woke up with a haggard expression. Looking at Liu Jia's eyes towards Ke'er, she recalled the former emperor's eyes towards Li Ji. This made her very frightened. A wise monarch should not be infatuated with any woman. She would be too doting.
A woman is just a precursor to the destruction of a country...
"Pay homage to the Queen Mother." Hua Yunzi knelt down and saluted.
"Get up." The Queen Mother's voice was extremely hoarse.
Looking at the tired face of the Queen Mother, Yunzi also heard about the emperor's forced conquest yesterday. It must be that the Queen Mother was really sad.
"I don't know what the Queen Mother's orders are for her concubine?" Yunzi still had a smile on her face.
The Queen Mother raised her eyes and looked at her and said: "Yunzi, the eunuchs and maids who knew about it yesterday were all killed by the Ai family. From now on, Ling Keer's identity is not allowed to be mentioned again."
Yun Zi was stunned. It seemed that the Queen Mother had compromised and wanted to continue to hide it, so she nodded: "Don't worry, Queen Mother, I will definitely keep the secret, and my father will also keep the secret."
The Queen Mother nodded and sighed: "The Ai family has nothing to do and Liujia is not up to par. The Ai family is really feeling miserable."
Seeing the Queen Mother crying again, Yunzi suddenly realized that the Queen Mother of Beixi, whom everyone praised for her strong fist, was actually just a poor woman, a mother who worried about her son.
"Queen Mother, don't be sad anymore, take care of yourself." Yunzi comforted her softly.
The Queen Mother waved her hand to Yunzi: "Yunzi, come and sit."
"Yes." Hua Yunzi agreed, slowly walked to the bed and sat down next to the Queen Mother.
"Sitting posture, you are the favorite of the Ai family among the emperor's wives and concubines. You are smart, sensible and do things in a measured way." The Queen Mother praised.
Hua Yunzi smiled slightly: "I don't dare to be a concubine. The Queen's sister is better than me. I don't dare to take credit."
Speaking of this, the Queen Mother once again said with tears: "Speaking of Tong'er, the Ai family is even more sad. Taking advantage of her status as queen, she is so domineering and does not know the depth. It is really a disrespect for her mother."
"The Queen Mother spoke harshly, and the Queen Sister is just outspoken." The biggest advantage of Hua Yunzi is that she doesn't speak ill of people. This is also what the Queen Mother appreciates most about her. The reason why she reported Ke'er to the Queen Mother before was also
To protect myself, I am afraid that if the Queen Mother finds out later, she will blame them and her daughter. This person is acting too cautiously.
"Yunzi, don't say good things for her. The Ai family knows very well what Tong'er is like. We can only blame the Feng family for not living up to expectations and not being able to give birth to a daughter as good as you." The Queen Mother said with emotion.
Hua Yunzi gently comforted the Queen Mother: "Please rest assured, Queen Mother, Yunzi will be your daughter from now on."
"Yunzi, the Ai family won't hide it from you anymore. The situation is tense now. The emperor has no heirs, and the government and the public may be in turmoil. Therefore, there must be a prince to inherit the throne, and you are the best candidate. As long as you can
If you give birth to a prince, I will definitely make you the queen and your child will be crowned the prince."
Hua Yunzi was shocked and immediately knelt down: "I don't dare, I dare not."
The Queen Mother waved her hand and signaled her to get up: "If you don't dare, this is the wish of the Ai family. Don't refuse. Tong'er is really not suitable to be the queen, so the Ai family has pinned all their hopes on you.
"
Hua Yunzi understood something in her heart, so she said carefully: "But will the emperor agree? The emperor probably hopes to make Miss Ke'er his queen, right?"
The Queen Mother's face immediately changed: "Don't even think about it. If you don't kill that scourge, it would be a mercy for the Ai family. You still want to be the queen. As long as the Ai family lives for a day, he will stop dreaming."
Hua Yunzi rolled her eyes: "Queen Mother, actually, Yunzi feels that there should be some other ways to deal with the emperor. Don't have a head-on confrontation. This will only cause discord between mother and son."
The Queen Mother sighed: "Yes, since that disaster came, the gap between the Ai family and the emperor has become wider and wider. It would be better to kill that bitch when she entered the palace to avoid future troubles."
"I have an idea, I don't know if I should tell you about it?" Hua Yunzi said softly.
The Queen Mother raised her head and said, "Tell me, you child, you always speak in a measured manner, your method must be good."
Hua Yunzi bowed and said, "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your trust."
Then he said: "The Queen Mother now only needs to issue a canonization decree."
"Purpose? What purpose?" The Queen Mother looked at Hua Yunzi in confusion.
Hua Yunzi paused and said, "It is my will to make Ling Keer a princess."
"What? It's already the limit of the Ai family not to kill her, and yet you still make her a princess?" the Queen Mother roared in disbelief.
"Queen Mother, please calm down and please listen to me slowly." Hua Yunzi said softly.
The Queen Mother rolled her eyes: "You say."
"If the Queen Mother accepts Miss Ke'er as her adopted daughter, then she will be the emperor's adopted sister. Then the emperor cannot canonize her, let alone be with her. From now on, they can only be brother and sister forever." Hua Yunzi slowly said
explained.
A smile slowly appeared on the Queen Mother's face. This was a really good idea.
The Queen Mother thought for a moment and said, "You should go back first. The Rong Ai family is thinking about it."
"Yes, I, my concubine, will retire." Hua Yunzi bowed and resigned.
The Queen Mother was in a very complicated mood. This was a good idea, but by doing this, Liu Jia must hate her to death. She knew clearly that Liu Jia liked the child so much, but she still separated them so forcefully.
But then I turned around and thought, if I don't do this, then Liujia will get hot-headed and might make her the queen. Then, the situation in Beixi in the future...
After being cruel, the Queen Mother still picked up the pen, waved her hand, and finished drafting the decree...
"By the decree of the Empress Dowager, Ling Ke'er, the headmistress, is talented, well-behaved and sensible, and is deeply loved by the Ai family. She is specially canonized as Princess Nuan. She will choose a day to go to the emperor as a brother and sister. I admire this." When the eunuch finished reading.
Nuan Si was still stunned, unable to recover...
"What are you doing standing still? Why don't you thank me?" the eunuch reminded in a sharp voice.
Ke'er just plopped down and knelt down: "Ling Ke'er thanks the Queen Mother for her kindness."
"You are a singing prostitute, and you were named a stewardess by the Queen Mother, and now you are named a princess by the Queen Mother. This is your blessing in your previous life. You must serve the Queen Mother with all your heart, you know?" the eunuch said sourly.
"Yes." Ke'er responded numbly, her mind still blank.
After the imperial edict was issued, within half an hour, Liu Jia walked in angrily...
"Ke'er, what is the mother's will?" Liu Jia asked.
"There." Kerr pointed to the table with the teapot.
Lujia walked over, opened the will, became angry, picked up the candlestick, and was about to light it...
Ke'er immediately ran over and grabbed Yi Zhi: "Brother Liujia, what are you doing?"
"Burn it, why? Why does the queen mother want to turn us into brothers and sisters with a decree? Why?" Ryuka was so angry for the first time. Anyone who knows him knows that he is a person with a very cold personality.
, rarely gets angry. It seems that today, he was really angry.
"I'm going to find reason with my mother." Lucia turned around and started to leave.
Ke'er hugged Liu Jia from behind: "Brother Liu Jia... wouldn't it be nice for us to be brothers and sisters?"
"Do you like this?" Ryuka asked gently.
"I like it. Haven't you always been my brother Liujia? Now that I'm a princess, isn't it better?" Ke'er shed tears, but Liujia couldn't see it.
"Really? From now on... let's just be brother and sister." Ryuka said calmly and walked out.
Ke'er collapsed on the ground and burst into tears. In fact, this was not what she was thinking, but she knew that the Queen Mother had given in. She could not do that harm, let alone cause discord between their mother and son.
She knew that the Queen Mother felt sorry for Liu Jia, and she couldn't bear to create a gap between them. What a blessing it was to have a mother who loved her?
She thought, even if she was her sister, staying with Lucia and watching her brother Lucia happy, what's wrong with that?
She knows that Brother Lujia likes her, but does she still have the courage to love now? Will the heart that was broken by Wu Huan recover?
Why not be a simple self and live a simple life.
The Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony is held the next day
Ke'er is dressed in purple clothes and wears a princess's golden crown. She is absolutely beautiful today, but there is no smile on her face. She cannot smile, because after today, it will be like telling the world that she and Ryuka
From now on, the elder brother is brother and sister, and can only be brother and sister.
Lujia wore a blue brocade robe and looked extremely majestic, standing side by side with Keer in the main hall...
How great would it be if this was their wedding? Then Luca would be so happy, right?
"Kowtow to the Queen Mother." the ceremony officer shouted.
Ke'er and Liujia knelt down at the same time and shouted: "My son, I pay homage to my mother."
The Queen Mother smiled: "Ping Sheng, now that the Ai family is happy to have a daughter, I have no wish to live with the Ai family in the future. I only hope that you two, brother and sister, will love each other and support each other."
"Yes." Ke'er and Liujia responded at the same time.
Love each other? When Liu Jia heard it, she felt nauseous and wanted to vomit. Love each other? What a fake word?
He never thought that the woman he loved most would one day become his adopted sister...
It shouldn't feel good to call the woman you love "sister" every day, right?
While he was worshiping, Liujia suddenly clutched his chest and fainted to the ground...
"Quick, tell the imperial doctor, the emperor is suffering from cold disease." Even without looking at it, everyone knew it was Liu Jia's old problem.
Ke'er immediately stepped forward to help Liu Jia up. The Queen Mother who was rushed over pushed her away. Ke'er lay on the ground and watched Liu Jia being carried away by everyone...
She felt very complicated. She didn't know whether what she did was right or wrong?
