Chapter 319: Angry Queen

The queen was angry, Liang Shuyan's eyes glanced at it, and then came to the emperor.

The emperor coughed softly twice: "Queen, Ruren, that's not what I meant. Don't get it wrong. It's not that we are reluctant to let Niu Niu follow us. It's just that the current evidence is still a little bit weak. She, she is just worried that Niu Niu will let others go." Did you get it by mistake?"

The queen then said: "Really? Is it possible that someone came to claim Niuniu before?"

Liang Shuyan then nodded: "To tell you what happened, there is indeed such a thing. Some time ago, a couple often came to our door and said that Niu Niu was their biological daughter. But for some reason, when they came to our house later, they were Niuniu refused several times and then never came again."

"Who is he? Is there any evidence or what does he look like?"

Liang Shuyan thought for a moment and continued: "It seems that I also have a jade pendant, but I don't know why it hasn't come again. She looks like a young Beijing native, and her conditions are better than those of civilian women."

Soon, a little maid came forward quickly, whispered in the Queen's ear, and motioned to the maid. The maid soon came up with a couple, who happened to be the ones who had come to Daling Village to claim Niu Niu. A couple.

"Is this?" Liang Shuyan's eyes were full of curiosity. It turned out that the Queen was able to find such a person. What kind of method was used? It can be seen that the Queen's eyes are everywhere.

Liang Shuyan was shocked and confused. She originally thought that the Queen was just using her power to ask the couple to come to Daling Village to take Niu Niu back. However, the scene before her made her begin to doubt her judgment.

When the little maid whispered softly in the queen's ear, Liang Shuyan saw the queen frown slightly, obviously thinking about something. Soon, the little maid left, and a middle-aged couple was brought in. They looked a little embarrassed, obviously knowing who they were about to face.

The queen looked at them without any expression on her face. She said calmly: "Are you the couple who took Niuniu away in Daling Village?"

The couple hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Yes, Madam. What happened back then was really helpless. I hope that My Majesty will forgive me."

The Queen didn't speak, she just stared at them quietly, her eyes deep and cold.

Her face was pale, as if it had been eroded by time, but she exuded an indescribable nobility. The entire courtyard was so quiet that the only sounds that could be heard were the couple's breathing and the thump of kowtows.

Suddenly, the empress sighed softly, and her voice seemed to come from a distant place: "Niuniu, is she okay?"

The couple was stunned for a moment, then raised their heads and saw a hint of softness on the empress's face.

They felt warm in their hearts, knowing that the empress was not a heartless person, but what happened that year had really hit her too hard.

"Empress, Niuniu is very good. She is now the daughter of a peasant woman and she will not follow us no matter what!" The man replied respectfully, his words full of blessings and pride for Niuniu.

The empress suddenly stood up and said sternly: "Fortunately, I didn't follow you. If I had left, would I still be able to see my sweet princess now?"

"Returning to the Empress, I wanted to take Niuniu away to see the Empress in the palace no matter what, but I was worried about what might happen. And it just so happened that Niuniu didn't want to leave her, so I didn't take her away and invited the Empress Quit your anger.”

Niu Niu's eyes were red and she said with some disbelief: "Empress, you, you are really my mother, why did she say she was my mother before, and now you say you are my mother, who is my mother?"

Seeing this, Liang Shuyan hurriedly stepped forward and covered Niuniu's mouth: "Niuniu, don't talk nonsense, no matter what happened, what happened back then is over." The woman slowly raised her head, glanced at Liang Shuyan gratefully and said, " Thank you Ruren!”

Niu Niu's eyes widened with tears in her eyes, and she looked at the two people in front of her in confusion.

Liang Shuyan covered Niu Niu's mouth tightly, her eyes full of worry and pleading. She didn't want Niuniu to continue talking. She knew how complicated and dangerous this matter was.

The woman slowly raised her head, with gratitude and awe in her eyes.

Her face was gaunt and haggard, obviously having gone through a lot of pain and suffering. She looked at Liang Shuyan with tears in her eyes, as if she had seen her savior.

Liang Shuyan also looked at the woman, with complex emotions welling up in her heart.

She knew that this woman's identity was not simple, and she also knew that this woman had suffered a lot. But she couldn't let Niu Niu be put in danger, and she couldn't let Niu Niu's identity be exposed.

Niuniu's big eyes blinked, tears welling up in her eyes, and she looked at Liang Shuyan reluctantly. Her little hands tightly pulled Liang Shuyan's sleeves, as if seeking some comfort. Liang Shuyan felt sad. This child had been doted on by her since she was a child, and the whole family loved her as a treasure. In this ordinary farmhouse, although Niu Niu has ordinary living conditions, she is cared for like a little princess and enjoys different pampering.

The picture is frozen at this moment, with Niu Niu's tears sparkling in the sun. Liang Shuyan gently caressed Niu Niu's head, her eyes full of tenderness and reluctance.

Everything around seemed to be still, only the sound of Niu Niu's breathing and Liang Shuyan's gentle caressing intertwined in the air.

Dashan, Erniu, Sanwang, Mrs. Jin, Mrs. Liu, Zhang family, Liu family, Ruyan, the moment they saw Niu Niu, their hearts seemed to be hit by a heavy hammer. Niuniu, the little girl who had been following them since she was a child, the child who always called them "eldest brother", "second brother" and "third brother" with a smile, was lying there, motionless.

They rushed forward desperately and gathered tightly around Niu Niu, their tears falling like broken beads. Big tears dripped down their cheeks and fell to the ground, making a crisp sound, as if their hearts were broken.

"Niuniu, big brother can't let you go, I can't let you go!" Dashan cried like a child, his voice trembling, full of endless sadness.

"Niuniu!"

"Grandma's granddaughter, you are trying to pull at grandma's heart."

With trembling hands and tears in her eyes, the old woman called her granddaughter's name loudly. But the young figure had disappeared into the night, leaving only a series of heavy footsteps.

The old woman staggered to the entrance of the village and saw that Niu Niu's shadow had disappeared on the long dirt road under a dim street light.

"You silly girl, why are you just patting your butt and leaving!" The old lady muttered to herself, with a look of helplessness and reluctance on her face.

The night is getting darker and the wind is biting.

The old lady stood at the entrance of the village, her lonely figure stretched very long under the street lamp. "Grandma's granddaughter, you are trying to tear my heart out." Her voice was filled with endless sadness, echoing in the open fields and lingering for a long time.
