After hearing this, Shen Qiyan also felt a little emotional. Thinking about Zhang Dandan's helpless appearance now, only by herself, Shen Qiyan only felt that she deserved it. Her mother made such a determination to save her with her brother's life, but she The swearing at each other forced her loving mother away.

Yu Yan took Shen Qiyan's arm, and walked back to the palace with Shen Qiyan affectionately.

Gently patted the back of Shen Qiyan's hand, and began to talk heart-to-heart, "Xia Xia, I have seen your mother's harshness to you all these years. I know you are suffering, so why is your mother feeling better? So being good to Zhang Dandan is also because this matter is a knot in her heart. She always thinks that the disaster was originally on her body, but it was borne by juniors like Zhang Dandan, and it left a serious psychological burden on her family. , your mother wanted to make up for her, but she neglected you a little because of this."

"Aunt Yan knows that it's a bit embarrassing for you to tell you this, but don't think too much, Aunt Yan doesn't mean anything superfluous, she just wants you to know that your mother doesn't love you."

"As for Zhang Dandan, although this matter is pitiful, I am also responsible. I didn't expect that the bowl of soup was poisonous and she swallowed it by mistake. But she has always had some problems with her character. I also know that you and your brothers have always Don't like her."

"Auntie doesn't want to force you to have a good relationship. Auntie is naturally partial to you, but seeing you and your mother have been on bad terms because of Zhang Dandan for so many years, I feel uncomfortable."

Faced with Yu Yan's persuasion, Shen Qiyan smiled wryly, "Aunt Yan, you all know that I care about Zhang Dandan, but my mother doesn't know from the beginning to the end. She just thinks that I am making trouble for no reason, that I am childish."

"When your mother comes back, I will have a good chat with her."

Shen Qiyan almost gave up, "Thank you, Aunt Yan, but forget it, it's useless to tell her, she will only think that I am suing you."

"Let's not talk about this now." Yu Yan changed the subject, "Your mother is coming back soon, what are you going to do with that man in your palace? I heard from Xiao Chi and the others that you are pretending to be the high priest. I tricked your mother out, it’s okay if your mother doesn’t know about it, but if she knows, then you two will have to quarrel again.”

"Oh, don't worry about Aunt Yan, I will ask Mu Jinxin to help me, and as long as he admits it, my mother won't doubt anything." Shen Qiyan is not worried that this lie will be exposed, Mu Jinxin Xin will still help her a little bit, but...

She shook Yu Yan's arm, "It's Sheng Shihuang's matter, I have to trouble my aunt to help me talk about it in front of my mother, I want to hold a formal ceremony with him, let everyone in Huacheng know, I It's a couple with him."

"Do you really like him that much?"

Shen Qiyan nodded without hesitation, "I like it! I really like it! It must be him."

Yu Yan showed a gratified smile, "Good thing, then I will try my best to communicate with your mother and fight her inner battle. It is not easy to meet someone you like, but the most important thing is the relationship between you and your mother. No matter how much I talk to your mother, it will not be as useful as what you say in person."

Shen Qiyan pouted.

When she talked to Yu Hua, she had to quarrel every few words, and there was nothing useful to talk about at all.

Yu Yan saw through Shen Qiyan's thoughts, poked her head fondly with her fingers, "You, childish heart."

After saying that, Yu Yan felt a little emotional again, "It's just that you are the youngest, but you are the first to find someone you like. Your three older brothers really worry me, and none of them have married yet."

"Yu Chi, this stinky boy, as the big brother, is always fooling around every day. He used to have the most friends, and also many friends of the opposite sex. Since he came back from looking for you, I haven't seen him playing with those girls anymore. Friends came to him, He said no."

Yu Yan sighed as she said that, in the past, she thought it was not good for Yu Chi to be like this, because she was having too much fun.

But looking at Yu Chi now, Yu Yan hoped that he would be like before.

Although the current Yu Chi is basically the same as before, but Yu Yan, a mother, can naturally notice Yu Chi's occasional distraction, staring blankly into the distance, his face is full of sadness.

Yu Yan had never seen Yu Chi like this before, so she couldn't ask bluntly, she could only test the words inside and outside the words a few times, but Yu Chi passed them by with a sloppy eye.

Today, Yu Yan lowered her voice and asked Shen Qiyan seriously, "Xia Xia, can you tell me what happened to Yu Chi?"

This is Yu Chi's privacy, and Shen Xiyan couldn't say it directly, but she didn't want to make Yu Yan worry too much, so she found a reason to comfort her, "Auntie, when we were in Kyoto, men and women were equal. It's different here, Huacheng has always been a place where women are superior to men, but many years ago, Kyoto was a place where men were superior to women."

"But with the development of the times, women in Kyoto began to pursue their dreams and live the life they wanted. In the past, women just married and had children and took care of their families, but now many women are independent, and some of them Women also choose not to marry, and they spend more time on their jobs."

"I really appreciate this. I think it is not easy to have the courage to take this step. Women in the new era have accepted higher education, dared to venture out, and abandoned some bad habits, but most of their parents were still traditional. Yes, it is inevitable that there will be some quarrels between parents and children."

"After I came to Huacheng, I found that the men here are too humble. For example, there are so many men in my courtyard. Even if I randomly arrange a job for them, let this person hold the lamp and that person drive the car, it can still make them feel better. They are useful and can make money with their own hands and feet, instead of staying in that desolate courtyard with nothing to do every day."

It's not that she didn't practice what Shen Qiyan said, but just after the arrangement was made, she was severely reprimanded by Yu Hua, so she had to let it go.

Hearing Shen Qiyan's words, Yu Yan nodded half-understood, "Not getting married... This is indeed the first time I've heard of this. There has never been anyone in Huacheng, and those who don't get married will live alone all their lives."

As she was talking, Yu Yan's mind skipped a beat, and she grabbed Shen Qiyan's arm tightly, "Xia Xia, what do you mean, don't you mean that Yu Chi also wants to never get married for the rest of his life?"

Seeing Yu Yan's nervous look, Shen Qiyan understood that Yu Yan also couldn't accept the idea that a child would not be married for life.

After all, Huacheng has never had such a person except the high priest since ancient times. Marriage and having children seem to be a person's lifelong destiny, and everyone should be like this.

Although Shen Qiyan wanted to change this situation, he needed to do it step by step.

Shen Qiyan hugged Yu Yan's shoulders to comfort him, "No, who knows what will happen after this, it may be that Brother Yu Chi hasn't met the right person yet, and if he does meet in the future, he will naturally get married, but I don't want you to be anxious Well, I just want to say, it’s fine even if brother Yu Chi doesn’t get married for a long time, at worst I’ll raise him for the rest of his life! I’m the Empress, so I definitely won’t starve him.”

Yu Yan was amused, "You four brothers and sisters, the relationship is really good, but brothers and sisters belong to brothers and sisters, which is different from getting married."

"I know, but I can be with Sheng Shixuan because we like each other. If brother Yuchi doesn't meet someone who likes each other in the future, but because of these red tapes, he has to spend his whole life with someone he doesn't like, then That's miserable."

Shen Qiyan used a joking tone, subtly expressing his own views while communicating with Yu Yan.

I also want to give Yu Yan a vaccination in advance.

After all, Yu Chi had such a good relationship with Yan Yu at the beginning, after being forced to separate, it should be difficult for Yu Chi to fall in love with others again.

Substituted into himself, Shen Qiyan's thoughts and thoughts in the past few years since he came to Huacheng have been full of delusions, and he can't see other men at all, and Yu Chi must be the same.

But if a woman can show up and make Yu Chi feel emotional, it is also a good thing, and it can pull Yu Chi out of the abyss.

Yan Yu doesn't remember him for a long time, and he will only live a miserable life if he clings to these memories alone. It would be better if a new person appears, so that Yu Chi can let him go and spend the rest of his life well.

But Shen Qiyan also knew that the possibility was too low.

People who really like will only miss more with time, not forget.

……

Shen Qiyan cuddled with Yu Yan intimately like this, and walked back to her palace.

Sheng Shiwang has lived in Shen Qiyan Palace for so long, and Yu Yan didn't have a proper formal meeting with Sheng Shixuan, so he wants to have a proper meeting today.

Shen Qiyan was telling Yu Yan how good Sheng Shihuang was along the way, and she very much hoped that Yu Yan and Sheng Shihuang could get along well.

Shen Qiyan knew that it was too difficult for Yu Hua and Sheng Shiwang to get along in harmony, so it was better to let Sheng Shiwang win Yu Yan's favor first.

Little did she know that she herself had already been missed...

……

the other side.

Several ministers walked towards the gate of the palace together after leaving Mu Jinxin's palace.

Prime Minister Qu was all smiles, with a gossiping smile, "What do you think of Her Majesty the Empress and the High Priest?"

Several people laughed lightly.

Prime Minister Liu teased, "Prime Minister Qu, you are really addicted to being a matchmaker, why are you still targeting Her Majesty the Empress?"

Prime Minister Qu: "Hey! Don't talk about this first, just say whether your Majesty the Empress and the high priest are worthy! It's a daily scandal with an unknown man, what kind of talk does that sound like."

As Prime Minister Qu got older, he liked to see familiar children getting married and having children soon.

However, Shen Qiyan, the empress, is a maverick. Prime Minister Qu also talked to Yu Hua a few times in the past, and sent a few men to Shen Qiyan, but they were all thrown into the courtyard by Shen Qiyan.

But Prime Minister Qu was worried, but Shen Qiyan had a noble status, and most of the noble men she was of the right age were married to, and Prime Minister Qu was not good at introducing someone with a lower status to Shen Qiyan, so he had no idea.

But seeing the relationship between Mu Jinxin and Shen Qiyan today, Prime Minister Qu suddenly became enlightened.

He exported his ideas to several ministers.

"Look, Her Majesty the Empress has such a good relationship with the High Priest, and the High Priest is the man with the most noble status. Her Majesty the Empress has not been in Huacheng for so many years, and she won't be favored by those ministers. Only us veterans are loyal. , among the remaining courtiers, you all know how many have been gathered by the eldest princess."

"But if the high priest marries Her Majesty the Empress and sits on the throne of God, who will dare to disobey Her Majesty the Empress after that?"

Although Taiwei Qi agreed, he still expressed his doubts, "That being said, I don't know if the relationship between the High Priest and Her Majesty the Empress is as close as we thought. What's more... the high priests are not married, I will work hard for the people all my life.”

If the Huacheng man is married, he needs to live in the woman's house.

The priest's hall built for the high priest in the palace is the location obtained by the divination of the first high priest, which is the most suitable for divination, so the previous high priests have lived here and will not move out of the priest's hall.

Subconsciously, everyone subconsciously believed that the high priest would only marry someone in the palace, and he could continue to live in the palace from then on, but the status of the high priest was really noble.

Women who can live in the palace, except for the empress, if other women marry the high priest, they will be considered to have bad intentions and want to usurp the empress.

If things go on like this until now, all the high priests have remained single on the bright side. Although some of them have some ambiguous partners outside the palace, they are all kept in the dark, and everyone turns a blind eye to let them go.

So much so that until now, everyone felt that the high priest should be alone.

Prime Minister Qu stared, displeased, "Don't forget! When the position of High Priest was established, apart from being able to divination and protecting the people, he was also the future emperor!"

"That's right!" Prime Minister Liu's tone suddenly became agitated, "Why did I forget! The high priest is the future emperor! Tomorrow! Oh no, now! I'll go back and write the paper now! I will present it to you tomorrow morning. Yan Zun!"

Millions of years ago, the position of High Priest of Huacheng was first established.

At that time, the first high priest was just a young child, and when the daughter of the empress was born, the empress made a rule that after the new empress came to the throne, the high priest should be appointed as the emperor, and this will continue in the future.

The most noble men and women in Huacheng complement each other.

It's a pity that the high priest fell in love with the maid. Later, after the new empress ascended the throne, she was kind-hearted and did not separate them, abolishing this rule.

Because the rule that the high priest was brought up by the emperor had not been implemented, it was soon abolished, and after too long time, it was forgotten by people.

Prime Minister Qu also happened to hear the old man talking about it once and then checked the books to find out that there really is such a rule.

The eyes of several ministers beside him began to brighten, and they began to agree one after another.

"I always thought that the high priest had a cold face. Until today, when the high priest saw Her Majesty the Empress, his face was full of tenderness. At that time, I thought I had misjudged the person. Since I have raised hundreds of male favorites over the years From experience, the High Priest must like Her Majesty the Empress!"

"This is really a match made in heaven. If it can be done, it will be passed on by the people of Huacheng in the future."

"Stop talking, hurry back and write the notes!"
