The arrival of Dr. Shen also reminded Su Nianyun that it was time to meet the Queen Mother.
After all, Chen Shao'an has been buried for so long. No matter how well-prevented Nanny Sun is, she can't help but stop those who are interested.
Su Nianyun entered the palace early the next day and saw Queen Zheng talking to the Queen Mother about this matter.
Since taking Chiyangcao, Murongjing has avoided visiting various palaces.
This was the first time she saw the queen after she recovered. She didn't expect to hear such shocking news.
"Queen, what did you just say?"
"Queen Mother, it turns out you don't know yet?" Empress Zheng was suddenly surprised, and then she regretted, "Queen Mother, it's me who talks too much!"
"What's going on?" Murong Jing had an angry look on her face.
She turned back to look at Grandma Sun, "Why didn't you report such a thing earlier?"
Grandma Sun hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, this slave has neglected her duty."
She couldn't say that this was Princess Nianyun's special order, so she had to take the blame on herself.
"Mother Sun, this matter has happened for so long, but you haven't reported it to the Queen Mother. You can't use dereliction of duty to describe your actions, right?"
Empress Zheng was gloating beside her.
She just liked to see the Queen Mother angry.
I heard that if the Queen Mother is always angry, she will die early.
"It's all my slave's fault. Please punish me, Queen Mother!" Grandma Sun kowtowed heavily.
"Queen Mother..."
At this moment, Su Nianyun appeared in time, and she said, "I asked Grandma Sun not to tell you!"
"Nianyun, come to Ai's house quickly..."
The Queen Mother felt quite distressed when she saw that Su Nianyun, whom she had not seen for several days, was actually a little thin.
Su Nianyun saluted Queen Zheng and sat next to the Queen Mother.
"Girl, why do you have to hide it when such a big thing happened?"
"Your Majesty, it's because I'm afraid that others will tell you that not only can't I explain the situation clearly, but it will only make you worry, so I thought it would be easy and told you in person."
"Silly girl, it must be hard for you to face this kind of thing alone, right?"
Murong Jing realized that Su Nianyun was not sad, and she let go of her worries.
The two of them spoke like no one else was around, which made Empress Zheng narrow her eyes, and at the same time she was confused.
Su Nianyun originally cried out that she would not marry anyone other than Chen Shaoan, but now that her husband is dead, she seems to have no reaction at all.
She said sarcastically, "Princess Nianyun, a few days ago, I heard that you died for your consort on the street. Why do you look so calm and relaxed today?"
Is this... callous?
Unexpectedly, Su Nianyun slowly caressed her lower abdomen.
"Empress, I wanted to go with the prince-in-law, but the doctor said that only if you don't cry or make a fuss and have a stable mood can you successfully give birth to a child..."
"Child?" Queen Zheng was stunned, "Are you pregnant?"
Su Nianyun nodded, "For the prince-in-law and for this child, I will let myself live well."
Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother frowned when Su Nianyun said she had a child.
Empress Zheng did not ask for any benefits in the Queen Mother's Palace, so she left after sitting there for a while.
After the queen left, Murong Jing asked, "You told the Ai family the truth about the child, is it true?"
She thought that Su Nianyun deliberately made up a child in order to intimidate Empress Zheng.
Su Nianyun nodded, "Queen Mother, it's absolutely true!"
"You are still young and have only been married to the Chen family for less than two months. Maybe you..."
Murong Jing didn't care about the Chen family's flesh and blood, she was more concerned about Su Nianyun's future happiness.
Su Nianyun comforted, "We loved each other while we were alive and have no regrets after death. This is our marriage creed in Mobei."
"Queen Mother, you really don't have to worry about Nianyun. We Mobei people take life and death very lightly."
Of course what she told was a lie, she was only looking down on Chen Shaoan's life and death.
"It's best if you think so."
After listening to Su Nianyun's remarks, Murong Jing was sure that she was not affected by Chen Shaoan's death.
"By the way, speaking of Mobei..." Murong Jing asked, "Has your tribe arrived?"
"Queen Mother, Nianyun came to the palace this time not only because I was afraid that you would worry about me, but also because I wanted to tell you about this matter..."
Su Chengze and his tribe walked on the road for almost twenty days. Unexpectedly, when they arrived at the princess's fiefdom, they heard the news of Chen Shaoan's death in battle.
Just when he was about to drop everything and comfort the princess, Su Ming came to see his father first.
The father and son sat in the temporary tent, and Su Ming told his father everything that had happened these days.
"That's too much!"
After hearing this, Su Cheng stood up and punched angrily, causing the pillars supporting the tent to break into two pieces.
"Where is that ungrateful traitor? I will go and teach him a lesson myself!"
"Father, don't be impulsive. We teach him every day. You can't show up rashly."
"Nian Yun said that we can't let Chen Shaoan know that we are behind it, so not too many clan members can go in front of him to save trouble in the future."
After listening to Su Ming's words, Su Cheng sat down angrily.
"What is Nianyun doing? Such a heartless man is already dead to the public anyway, so let him die for real!"
"Father, this is too easy for him. Just listen to Nian Yun. Once she has tortured him enough and vented her anger, it will be too late to take his life."
"Well, what you said makes sense..."
Su Cheng looked at Su Ming, "I didn't expect that you have made great progress in the past few days since you have been in the capital!"
"This brain is much easier to use than when I was in Mobei."
Su Ming smiled shyly, "Dad, you don't know me yet, it was Nianyun who taught me."
"I also discovered that Nianyun is much more stable and smarter than before..."
Su Chengdao, "I think it's all because of this man-eating capital city."
"Although there are many wolves, tigers and leopards in Mobei, we are at ease. This capital looks prosperous, but in fact everyone is a wolf, tiger and leopard..."
This is what he summed up after doing business in the capital for a period of time.
"Speaking of freedom, Nianyun said that he hasn't ridden a horse for a long time, so let's create a horse farm."
"Racecourse..."
Su Cheng walked out of the tent and looked at the unobstructed land outside, "There are less than a hundred of us living here, and there are horse farms everywhere."
A half-year-old boy ran up to Su Cheng, "Uncle Cheng, our new territory is really great. There are mountains, water, flowers and trees here. It's much better than the tribes in Mobei!"
Su Cheng touched his head and said, "Is this enough? This is just the suburbs of Beijing. Only when you enter the capital will you know what is really good!"
"Uncle Cheng, can we still enter the capital?"
Su Cheng nodded, "Why can't you come in? I will take you there after we have settled in and rested for two days."
"Great, great, I'm going to tell mom the good news..."
Several children immediately ran away happily.
At this time, the child standing in the creek excitedly hugged a fish and said, "Caught it, caught it!"
"Great!" The man who was setting up the tent laughed, "Catch a few more and everyone will have fish to eat at night!"
"Okay!"
Seeing the happy faces of the tribesmen, Su Cheng was also satisfied.
"Okay, I know what you mean, and I won't act rashly."
He said to Su Ming, "I'll leave all the affairs in the capital to you these days. I'll take the tribe to get this place ready first, and wait for Nian Yun to come and ride..."
Su Ming nodded, said goodbye to his father and got on his horse. It was getting late, and today's violent beating of Chen Shaoan couldn't be missed.
When I returned to the ruined courtyard, I saw Su Nianyun already there.
"Nianyun, why are you here?"
Su Nianyun smiled.
She came out of the palace and came here to watch a play.
