When Long Chenyi and Mu Tianxue arrived at Taiye Palace, Liancheng and Lianyue were sitting in the palace chatting with the Queen Mother.
It looked like they were chatting happily and the atmosphere was good. The two of them entered the inner hall to greet the Empress Dowager, and then sat at the top of the table next to the Empress Dowager.
"Lian Yue has met the Emperor, and the Queen is blessed." After Mu Tianxue and Long Chen sat down respectively, Lian Yue walked to the center of the hall step by step and bowed to the two of them.
"Princess Lianyue doesn't need to be polite." Long Chen also said expressionlessly, then he took a sip of tea from the tea cup, looked at the Empress Dowager and said: "My son and Tian Xue were not able to accompany our mother to eat today.
You won’t blame me!”
The Queen Mother glanced sideways at Mu Tianxue, then looked at Long Chenyi with a smile, "You two have been separated for many years, and it's so rare to get together, just like a newly married couple. If I, an old woman, blame you, it will make me look like this."
The old woman is unreasonable."
"Mother, please stop laughing at Tianxue," Mu Tianxue said with a slight smile. He glanced at Lian Yue and Liancheng who were lowering their heads and couldn't help but murmur in their hearts. Is it as simple as these two brothers and sisters just coming to visit the Queen Mother?
After hearing what the Queen Mother said, she hurriedly praised her for months: "The Queen Mother is graceful and noble. She is in her prime years. Her aura and nobility are not comparable to those of younger generations like us."
Lian Yue's words were obviously very useful to the Queen Mother, and she immediately laughed happily, "Princess Lian Yue is so lovable!"
Lian Yue smiled coyly, her eyes secretly glanced at Long Chenyi aside, and then looked at the Queen Mother, "Lian Yue is telling the truth. The Queen Mother's grace is still the same, even better than that of five years ago."
"Look at your clever mouth, you made the Ai family very happy." The Queen Mother looked at Lianyue and smiled from ear to ear, and said: "The emperor has finally established a queen, and the emperor is expected to have an heir. The Ai family has not had one for a long time.
I’m so happy, hey! This harem should be more lively so that it doesn’t look deserted!!”
The Queen Mother's last words spoke of infinite suffering. There was only one queen in such a huge harem, so how could it be called a harem? There couldn't be only one lineage of the emperor's heirs!
After hearing what the Queen Mother said, the other four people had different expressions.
Mu Tianxue was as cold as ice, with an elusive sneer flashing through her eyes.
As expected, the Queen Mother did not object to Long Chen also making her the Queen, and it was only for the sake of the overall interests of the royal family.
Now that she has returned to the palace and been crowned the empress, the harem must not be left in ruins. For no other reason, even if it is just for the sake of the emperor's heir, the queen mother will do everything possible to fill the harem for Long Chen.
She was still wondering why Lianyue and Liancheng had the time to come and chat with the Queen Mother. It seemed that because she didn't get the response she wanted, they approached the Queen Mother to make the decision.
"What the Queen Mother said is true. Since ancient times, emperors' harems have always had three palaces and six courtyards. The concubines and beauties have been very lively in order to spread the branches of the royal family and reproduce their heirs." Liancheng found the opportunity and said in a timely manner.
.
Long Chenyi's eyebrows wrinkled almost inaudibly, his handsome face was expressionless, his starry eyes were deep and dark, he took a sip of tea and said in a cold voice: "I guess there are many concubines in the Prince's Mansion in Liancheng. I don't know about the Emperor's Grandson and the Princess.
How old is your age?”
Liancheng's face turned green and white, and he suddenly felt extremely embarrassed. There was not even a main concubine in his prince's house, only one concubine and a few concubines.
He still doesn't have a son and a half, so Long Chen knew it but still asked, isn't it intentional?
Lian Yue's expression didn't look good. She glanced at Liancheng carefully and saw that his face was ugly. She knew it was because of Long Chenyi's words and was about to open her mouth to smooth things over.
But he heard Liancheng pretending to laugh heartily, "How can this prince be so lucky as the emperor? The queen gave birth to a dragon son for the emperor. If this prince is lucky enough to have a little princess in the future, he will also look forward to marrying the emperor.
I wonder what the emperor’s intention is?”
"Haha!!" Long Chenyi raised his lips slightly and smiled coldly. He stood up and said respectfully to the Queen Mother: "My son and Tianxue have some important things to do, so I won't disturb my mother. I will leave first."
After saying that, Long Chen also stepped forward and pulled Mu Tianxue out of the palace. Before Mu Tianxue could speak, Long Chen also pulled him out of the palace and ran all the way to Nianxue Pavilion.
The Queen Mother watched the two people leaving and couldn't help but sigh. Although Yi'er was not his biological son, he had watched him grow up since childhood and knew his temper very well.
Seeing his attitude, it was naturally impossible for him to be willing to accept a concubine, but the crown prince and princess of Lianyun Kingdom came to discuss the marriage in person, how could he give an explanation to Lianyun Kingdom, and the upcoming personal envoy of Beiteng Kingdom.
"Empress Dowager, our country, Lianyun, has always been on good terms with the imperial court. The purpose of the marriage is to strengthen the friendship between the two countries." Liancheng stood up and came to the center of the palace and said seriously: "This time, Liancheng and the emperor's sister came sincerely for the sake of marriage.
, I also hope that the Queen Mother will promote this marriage for the sake of the peace of the two countries."
"The Queen Mother, Lian Yue does not ask for anything else. I am only willing to accompany the Emperor and pray for the people of the two countries. I hope that the Queen Mother will succeed." Lian Yue stood up and knelt down and begged pitifully.
As the princess of Lianyun Kingdom, she was willing to give up her noble status and become humble for the sake of a man she loved deeply. She knelt down and begged the Queen Mother to fulfill her wish. Only she understood the pain and sadness in her heart.
The Empress Dowager suddenly saw Lian Yue kneeling down and begging, and she was shocked. There was no way for a woman to ask for a marriage, not to mention that Lian Yue was the princess of a country. In order to stay in the dynasty, she did not hesitate to put down her reserve as a woman.
Quite shocking.
"Princess Lianyue, hurry up. You are sincere to the emperor. The Ai family sees it and is willing to help you." The queen mother got up and went to help Lian Yue up. She sighed helplessly: "The Ai family also wants to make both ends meet.
The country is harmonious, but both of you know the emperor's temper very well."
"Empress Dowager, you are the only one who can help Lianyue." Lian Yue's autumn eyes were filled with tears as he held the Queen Mother's hand. "As long as the imperial court agrees to Lianyun Guo's marriage, Lian Yue does not ask for the emperor's love. He only hopes to be in the imperial court."
Now that I have a place to live in the palace, I can just stay with the Queen Mother."
Even if Yuehua comes to this point, what can the Empress Dowager say?
What's more, she has always liked Lian Yue. She has fallen in love with this quiet and gentle child since she came here for marriage five years ago. At that time, she thought she would become the Sixth Princess.
But halfway, Mu Tianxue came out, and a good marriage was ruined by the ugly girl back then. Now, what happened five years ago has happened again, and the child has never been married to Yi'er.
Such an infatuated woman, how could she bear to see her lower her body to plead, and remain unmoved by her loyalty.
Besides, I also like her very much, so it would be great if she could always be by her side.
Besides, the harem cannot remain abandoned forever. Even if she does not want to make good relations between the two countries, she still has to plan for the emperor's heirs and the future of the dynasty!!!
