After my inner voice was eavesdropped, I became the favorite of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 65

Li Qingge looked at the cakes and smiled. She didn't like sweets very much, but in order not to offend the queen, she tried a little of each. She savored the cakes carefully, as if she was savoring the memories of the past. Then, she picked up a cup of salty milk tea specially made by the palace and took a sip. The familiar taste instantly awakened her childhood memories.

"Mom, I still remember that my favorite drink when I was a child was this salty milk tea." Li Qingge said with a smile, a trace of nostalgia in his eyes.

The queen also smiled. She looked at her daughter, her heart filled with warmth: "Yes, you always pestered me to make it for you back then. Now, you can finally taste it again."

The two ate and talked, and time passed by unknowingly. The sun was setting, and the sky was stained with a gorgeous sunset glow. Li Qingge looked at the sky and knew that the time of separation was approaching. She said to the queen affectionately: "Mother, my identity should not be revealed for the time being. There are too many people in this world who hate me, and I can't let you and Yongqi fall into danger because of me."

The queen was very confused after hearing this: "Why? Isn't this something to be happy about? You should let everyone know that you are my daughter and the queen of Dayan!"

Li Qingge shook her head, her eyes became unusually cold: "Of course it is a happy event for us mother and daughter, but not necessarily for others. There are too many people in this world who hate me, just like the Emperor..." Having said this, she suddenly stopped talking because she realized that it was inappropriate to address the emperor like that.

The Queen quickly corrected her: "He is your father after all!"

Li Qingge responded coldly, "So what if he's my father? There have been many cases of fathers and sons fighting and brothers turning against each other in history. He knew that I valued family ties, so he used my aunt as a hostage to force me to come to Beijing. He could treat people who were not related to him by blood like this, let alone my own mother. If he knew the truth, who knows if he would do something even more vicious?"

The queen couldn't help but tremble when she heard what Li Qingge said. She never thought that the emperor would be so cruel! She hugged Li Qingge tightly, as if she wanted to protect her with all her strength: "My child, don't worry, mother will protect you and won't let anyone hurt you!"

Li Qingge's eyes were as cold and ruthless as ice. She continued, "Don't test people's hearts, because they are the most unpredictable! The emperor has many beauties in his harem and his offspring are endless. The concubines have tried their best to win his favor, and the children have tried their best to fight for the throne. But in my opinion, only my mother and I and Yongqi are a real family, and our interests are closely linked. Mother, you should understand this."

Li Qingge's words were as cold as ice, and the queen felt a chill. She knew very well that the emperor had many children and could give up everything for power, so how could he care about the life and death of a daughter? She held Li Qingge's hand tightly and said firmly: "My child, I understand what you mean. Don't worry, I will keep my mouth shut and won't let anyone know your identity. As long as we can be together, I will be satisfied."

The last rays of the setting sun gradually disappeared on the horizon, and night fell quietly. Li Qingge stood up, looked at the queen affectionately, and then turned and left. Her figure gradually blurred in the night, but her determination and courage remained in the queen's heart forever.

The queen looked at the direction her daughter left, her heart filled with endless thoughts and worries. She knew that the road ahead was still long and her daughter would face many challenges. But she believed that as long as they worked together, no matter what difficulties they encountered, they could face them bravely and overcome them together.

As night fell, the palace was lit with candles. The queen sat in front of the mirror, and Rong Mama was combing her hair. She looked at herself in the mirror, and her eyes revealed an unprecedented firmness. She knew that from this moment on, she was no longer the queen who only knew how to enjoy herself, but the most solid support for her daughter.

"Madame Rong, you have been with me for decades. From now on, we must be more careful and not let anyone hurt Qingge and Yongji." The queen's voice was low and powerful, revealing an unquestionable majesty.

Rong Mama nodded, with a determined light in her eyes: "Don't worry, Madam, I will always be by your side and protect our family."

As the night deepened, the palace was silent. The queen lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. Her mind kept echoing with her daughter's words, and her heart was filled with expectations and worries about the future. But she knew that no matter what the future held, as long as they were together, nothing could stop them from moving forward.

In the days ahead, Li Qingge will continue to lead Da Yan towards prosperity and strength, and the queen will be her strongest backing. Together, they will face the storms and challenges of the world and write their own legendary chapters.

Feng Yi Jiu Tian: The Queen's Secret

As the night deepened, the moonlight was like water, quietly sprinkling on the glazed tiles of the Forbidden City, reflecting a faint blue light. In Kunning Palace, the candlelight flickered, reflecting the slightly haggard but still dignified face of the queen. She sat on a carved wooden chair, her hands clenched, her fingertips white with tension. Qingge stood aside, with an upright posture and a calm face, and her deep eyes seemed to be able to see into people's hearts.

"If he knew that the queen of Dayan was his biological daughter, he would definitely threaten me and Yongqi's lives." The queen's voice was low and trembling, and every word seemed to come from the bottom of her heart. She looked up at Qingge, her eyes full of fear and helplessness.

Qingge smiled softly, with a hint of sarcasm and relief in her smile. She walked to the queen and whispered softly, "Mother, don't worry. Since I dared to come, I have made all the preparations. He won't know."

The queen nodded repeatedly upon hearing this, with a hint of gratitude in her eyes. She held Qingge's hand tightly, as if she could grasp a sense of security in this way. "Don't worry! I will keep my mouth shut and never reveal a word." Her voice was firm and resolute, as if she was swearing to herself.

Qingge looked at the queen, and a complex emotion surged in her heart. She knew that although the queen had deep feelings for the emperor, she loved her own flesh and blood more. The palace fight between her and Concubine Ling, and the persecution of Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei, were all because the talent of the fifth prince Yongqi caught the eye of Emperor Qianlong, which threatened Yongqi's position. For the sake of her son, the queen had to fight and fight.

Thinking of this, a hint of coldness flashed in Qingge's eyes. She turned and walked to the window, looking at the bright moon outside the window, and an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart. She, the queen of Dayan, should have been a high and mighty existence, but because of an unexpected encounter, she was involved in this complicated court struggle.

……

After a busy day, Emperor Qianlong wanted to relax in the Imperial Garden, but suddenly remembered that the Empress was ill. He stood at the door of the Imperial Study, looking at the dark night sky outside, and felt an inexplicable irritation in his heart. He thought that if he didn't go to visit, he might be ridiculed by foreign officials for favoring concubines. So he changed his route and went to Kunning Palace to comfort the Empress.

Kunning Palace looked particularly quiet in the night, with only a few palace lanterns swaying in the wind. Qianlong walked on the bluestone road, step by step towards the palace gate. Before he reached the palace gate, the palace maids and eunuchs were preparing to announce the emperor's arrival. Unexpectedly, Qianlong met Qingge by chance.

This was the first time he saw Qingge's true face. Qingge was wearing an elegant moon-white dress, the hem of which swayed gently in the night breeze, like a blooming lily. Her face was as bright as a pearl, her skin was whiter than snow, and she was as beautiful as the gorgeous sunset in the sky. Qianlong was stunned for a moment, and he stood there in a daze.

He couldn't help but exclaimed, and pointed at Qingge with a trembling finger: "Eh? You, you..." He couldn't even speak clearly, and his eyes were full of amazement. It was like a poor scholar who suddenly won the lottery, the astonishment and ecstasy almost overwhelmed him.

Qianlong took several steps forward and walked to Qingge, staring at her infatuatedly. Qingge felt uncomfortable being stared at by him, and stepped back several steps, frowning and scolding: "How dare you! How dare you look directly at me? Do you want me to dig out your eyes?"

"I?" Hearing Qingge's words, Qianlong suddenly came back to his senses and looked at her with wide eyes, "You, you..." There was disbelief and astonishment in his words.

Qingge sneered, her voice revealing an unquestionable majesty: "What? Can't you even recognize my voice?"

Qianlong was horrified and blurted out, "Are you the Queen of Dayan?" His voice was trembling and unbelievable. He thought he had met a beautiful woman like a fairy and wanted to take her into the palace to spend the night together. Unexpectedly, this beauty turned out to be the Queen of Dayan whom he hated and feared the most.

There is often only a fine line between rumors and truth. Qianlong initially sent people to spread rumors, criticize, and slander Qingge, portraying her as an evil female demon. Now that he has seen Qingge in person, he realizes how ridiculous those rumors are. The beauty in front of him is not only as beautiful as a fairy, but also extraordinary and otherworldly, as if she walked out of a painting.

Qingge said calmly: "Of course it's me. Who else but me dares to call myself 'I'?" Her voice was calm and firm, as if she was stating a simple fact.

Qianlong sighed heavily after hearing this. If it were someone else, he would definitely try every means to get this beauty, even if she was already married. But it was a pity that she was the Lord of Great Yan, and even though he was an emperor, he could not get involved. He could not help but feel regretful and helpless.

How could Qingge not understand Qianlong's dirty thoughts when she saw his complicated eyes? But she just smiled and ignored it. She knew that although Qianlong was an emperor, he also had the seven emotions and six desires of ordinary people. She would not despise him or let him go because of this. Because she was the queen of Dayan, she was Li Qingge, and she had her own mission and responsibility.

"Emperor Qianlong, our meeting today is both fate and destiny." Qingge's voice suddenly became serious, "I came here not to fight with you but to resolve some issues. I hope you can understand my position and intentions."

Qianlong's expression froze when he heard this. He knew that Qingge's words were true, and he also knew that he could not escape. So he took a deep breath and tried to calm his heart. "Your Majesty, what do you need my assistance with? As long as I can do it, I will do my best."

Qingge looked at Qianlong with a hint of admiration in her eyes. She knew that although Qianlong was sometimes blinded by power and desire, he was essentially a wise ruler. So, she slowly spoke and told Qianlong her purpose and plan one by one.

After hearing this, Qianlong looked solemn. He knew that if Qingge's plan succeeded, it would have a profound impact on Da Yan and the Qing Dynasty. But he also understood that this was the only solution. So he nodded and agreed, and decided to work with Qingge.

As the night deepened, the candlelight in Kunning Palace was still swaying. Qianlong and Qingge stood in front of the window, looking at the dark night sky outside. Their hearts were full of expectations and uneasiness, but they knew that this was the path they had to take.

"Your Majesty, I hope our cooperation will be successful." Qianlong's voice was firm and resolute.

Qingge smiled slightly, with a hint of confidence and relief in her smile. "Emperor Qianlong, don't worry. We will succeed." Her voice was soft, but full of strength and determination.

In the night, the candlelight in Kunning Palace gradually went out. But the figures of Qianlong and Qingge still stood firm in the darkness. They knew that the road ahead was still long, but they were ready to meet the upcoming challenges and opportunities.

The Phoenix Returns: Secrets of the Forbidden City
Spring in the Forbidden City always comes so quietly, yet so gorgeously. The flowers in the Imperial Garden seem to have woken up overnight, blooming one after another, competing for splendor. Peach blossoms, apricot blossoms, pear blossoms, and unknown wild flowers all sway gracefully and emit bursts of fragrance under the gentle caress of the spring breeze.

Emperor Qianlong should have been in a happy mood strolling in this sea of ​​flowers, but at this moment, he felt a little irritated. The reason was that he had met Ziwei by chance on his southern tour that day. Her beautiful appearance and outstanding talent made him unforgettable. Whenever it was late at night, her figure would appear in his mind, disturbing his mind.

Ziwei, a seemingly ordinary but extraordinary woman, is not only beautiful in appearance, but also has a temperament that cannot be ignored. Qianlong knew that he was deeply attracted to her and was thinking about taking her into the harem as one of the many concubines.

However, Qianlong's lustful heart makes the protagonists headache. The Fifth Prince, Fu Erkang, and the mysterious woman, Li Qingge, all know Ziwei's true identity and the consequences of Qianlong's thoughts.

Finally, on a sunny afternoon, they decided to reveal the truth and explained it to Qianlong one by one. Qianlong sat on the dragon throne in the Yangxin Palace, listening to their statements, his face gradually became solemn. His lips turned slightly pale, as if he had suffered a great blow. He looked up at the sky and sighed: "Alas, it's really a joke of heaven, this is too ridiculous!"

He lamented that the heavens were unfair, using the essence of heaven and earth to give birth to such a peerless beauty, but instead of becoming his concubine, she became his... rival? Yes, rival. Qianlong found it difficult to accept this fact. He could not accept that he would have such deep feelings for someone who was about to become his enemy.

Li Qingge stood aside, watching Qianlong's reaction with cold eyes. Her face was full of disdain, and a mocking smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. She mocked: "God is playing tricks on me? Maybe he is just self-righteous. I shouldn't have set foot in this harem today. It's really unlucky!" The joy of the mother and daughter's reunion was ruined by this old pervert. Li Qingge was secretly angry in her heart. She didn't want to get involved in this dispute, but fate played tricks on her and she had to face it all.

After saying that, Li Qingge rolled her eyes and turned to leave. Her steps were brisk and firm, as if she was escaping from this place that made her feel depressed. Qianlong looked at her back as she walked away, her clothes fluttering in the wind, and her graceful demeanor was just like a fairy in Yaochi flying away on the wind. An indescribable sense of loss and regret surged in his heart.

He thought, such a beauty actually ascended the throne of Dabao, it was really a waste of talent! In Qianlong's mind, women should serve men, especially a beauty like Ziwei, who should be given to the most powerful people. As the emperor, everything in the world was under his control, so he naturally wanted to have all the beautiful women in the world.

Unexpectedly, this stunning beauty appeared on the person he least wanted. Isn't this "throwing a pearl into the dark", wasting this God-given beauty in vain? Qianlong's heart was filled with helplessness and regret.

Alas... Qianlong sighed again, forgetting even why he came here. He turned around and went back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, leaving the room in silence and emptiness.

At this time, the queen did not know that Qianlong had come and gone. She was immersed in the joy of reuniting with her daughter. The queen sat on the phoenix chair in Kunning Palace, her face filled with a happy smile. She looked at her daughter, Li Qingge, the queen of Dayan, sitting beside her, and her heart was filled with pride and relief.

Suddenly, the Queen remembered that Qingge had brought a gift when she visited, so she curiously asked Rong Mama, "What gift did Qingge bring?"

Madam Rong smiled and replied, "The princess is the ruler of a country, so the things she gives are naturally not ordinary things." After that, she opened the wooden box given by Qingge and presented it to the queen.

This wooden box is carefully carved from red sandalwood. The pattern of Magu's birthday celebration carved on it is so vivid that it seems to jump out of the wooden box. When you open the box, you will find a red satin cloth inside, on which lies a string of 18 dark green beads. Each bead is round and smooth, with a faint green light and a faint fragrance. The fragrance seems to have magic power, which makes people feel relaxed and happy, and their troubles disappear instantly.

The queen was born in a noble family and was well-informed. She recognized at a glance that this was an extremely precious Yingge Green agarwood necklace. Among the fragrant woods, agarwood is known as the "king of all fragrances", and agarwood is even more precious than agarwood, and there is only one in a million. Among the agarwood, there are green and purple grades. Yingge Green is the best of the green grades and is extremely rare. Such a necklace is difficult to find even in the harem, let alone turning it into a string of beads and wearing it on the body.

The queen was surprised and delighted to see the generous gift. She stroked the pearl necklace and said with a smile, "People say that daughters are the sweetest cotton-padded jackets of their parents. This is absolutely true!" Her heart was filled with gratitude and love for her daughter.

If Qingge heard this, she would definitely answer with a smile: "Although I am your little cotton-padded jacket, your cotton is the best cotton from Xinjiang, which is warm and close-fitting; and his Zhazhalong's cotton is like a broken fishing net, full of holes that can be blown through by the wind!" However, at this moment Qingge has left Kunning Palace and returned to her own world.

Although Ziwei's matter has come to an end for the time being, the turmoil in the Forbidden City has never stopped. Although the Queen and Qingge have reunited, they both know that the road ahead is still long and there are still many challenges and difficulties waiting for them. However, as long as they can work together, nothing can stop them from moving forward.

What about Qianlong? He sat on the dragon throne in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, looking at the sky outside the window, his heart full of confusion and bewilderment. He didn't know where his future was, nor did he know where to go. He only knew that there was a voice in his heart calling him to pursue his own happiness and true love.

However, as the king of a country, he has too many constraints and responsibilities. He cannot pursue his feelings as he pleases, and he cannot give up the whole country for a woman. Therefore, he can only bury that feeling deep in his heart, which becomes his eternal regret and pain.

The spring in the Forbidden City was still extremely gorgeous, but Qianlong's heart was full of haze. He didn't know what his future would be like. He only knew that he had to face everything bravely, no matter whether there were thorns or a smooth road ahead.

What about Qingge and Ziwei? How will they deal with the challenges and difficulties in the future? Can they work together to create their own glory and happiness? All of these will be unknown mysteries, waiting for them to reveal and solve.

Feng Yi Jiu Tian: Mother and Daughter's Imperial Dream
Madam Rong's face was full of joy, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes seemed to have relaxed. She whispered softly, "Princess, that child was born after you carried him for ten months with great difficulty. Naturally, he is very close to you and couldn't be closer to you. But..." When she got here, her tone suddenly became a little hesitant, as if the next words were difficult to say.

The Queen sat in the magnificent palace, wearing a luxurious phoenix robe that made her look even more dignified and beautiful. She gently picked up a string of Yingge Green bracelets, and each bead on the bracelet seemed to contain the breath of spring, green and full of vitality. She put the bracelet to her nose and sniffed it carefully. The fresh fragrance seemed to wash away the dust in people's hearts, making her forget the troubles in the palace for a while.

"But what?" The Queen's voice was gentle and calm, as if she had already expected that Rong Madam's next words would not be too ordinary.

Rong Mama seemed a little hesitant, but she still mustered up the courage to say: "The princess's status is extraordinary. Although I don't interfere in government affairs, just now I heard her and the queen talking about the founding of the Great Yan Dynasty and how to suppress those powerful people. I know that she is an ambitious and capable person. With the princess's current status, I am afraid that even half of the country cannot satisfy her ambitions. I think the day of the Northern Expedition is not far away. Your Majesty, you have always hoped that the twelfth prince can become a great man. If the emperor really passes the throne to the princess, what will happen to the relationship between the siblings..."

Rong Mama's words were like a needle that pierced the tranquility of the palace. The Queen put down the Yingge Green bracelet in her hand, and the bracelet gently touched the table, making a crisp sound. She sighed softly, and the sound was as light as the wind passing through the cracks in the palace, leaving no trace.

"Only you dare to say these words." The Empress's eyes became deep, as if she had penetrated the long river of time and returned to the past years. "I always wanted to let Yongqi ascend the throne, not only for the glory of women, but also to save his life. The position of the legitimate son of the Central Palace is really too sensitive! The reason why Emperor Kangxi made Yinreng the crown prince was because he was the only son of Empress Hesheli, wasn't it? Our emperor especially worships the Emperor and wants to learn from him in everything. The Emperor reigned for 61 years, and the Emperor said that he only asked for 60 years and would never dare to exceed it. If he exceeded it, he would abdicate to the crown prince. The Emperor valued legitimate sons, and so did the Emperor. Yonglian and Yongcong were both born to Empress Xiaoxian, but unfortunately they both died early. This shows how much the Emperor values ​​legitimate sons."

When the Empress spoke of this, a trace of sadness could not help but be revealed in her tone. She thought of her children who died young, and her heart ached. But she quickly suppressed her emotions and continued, "We Manchus have ruled the Central Plains for so many years, and have gradually been influenced by the customs of the Han people. The concept of establishing the eldest son as the heir has been deeply rooted in people's minds. If Yongqi cannot inherit the throne, but a concubine's son inherits it, even if I become the Empress Dowager according to etiquette, I can't guarantee that Yongqi will be safe."

Rong Mama couldn't help but sigh after hearing what the Queen said. She knew that the Queen was worried about the 12th Prince and how cruel the struggle in the palace was. She said softly, "The Queen is really worried about the 12th Prince. But the Queen doesn't have to worry too much. Although the princess is powerful, the 12th Prince is also a rare talent and may be able to achieve great things in the future."

The Empress only smiled faintly after hearing what Rong Mama said. She said in a deep voice: "All my plans and calculations are for Yongji to live a peaceful and happy life. I had three sons before, but now he is the only one left. The loss and recovery of Xiaowu made me completely understand that imperial power and wealth are all false, and only the well-being of children is real. There are constant struggles in the harem, and Yongji is so innocent, how can he cope with it. In the past, there was no other way to go, so I had to fight. Now there is a turnaround, I just hope that he can live a life of wealth and peace, without worries."

At this point, the Empress smiled proudly. She looked at the sky outside the window, as if she saw the future of her children. She said softly, "Xiaowu and Yongqi are both my children. No matter who becomes the emperor in the future, I will be the Empress Dowager. As long as my children are well, nothing else matters."

After hearing this, Rong Mama also relaxed her brows. She smiled softly and said, "Your Majesty is really wise. If Empress Dowager Xiaogong understood this truth, she would not have trapped herself. Your Majesty has let it go now, and the twelfth prince and the princess will be fine."

The Queen nodded, her heart full of hope for the future. She knew that no matter how the future changed, as long as her children were safe and happy, then everything she had done would be worth it.

At this time, the sunlight outside the window poured into the palace, shining on the Queen Mother and Rong Mama. The sunlight seemed to bring a warm power, making them feel unprecedented peace and satisfaction. In this magnificent palace, they seemed to see the future of their children, a future of light and hope.

In another part of the palace, Li Qingge was standing alone in front of the window, gazing at the sky in the distance. Her heart was full of longing and expectation for the future. She knew that she had a huge responsibility and mission, but she also believed that as long as she worked hard, she would be able to create a brilliant future of her own.

She remembered her mother, the Queen Mother's words, and a warm current surged in her heart. She knew that no matter how the future changes, her mother would always be by her side, supporting her and encouraging her. The power of this family affection made her more determined in her belief and determination.

In the days ahead, Li Qingge will use her wisdom and courage to write her own legendary story. The Queen and Rong Mama will always be by her side, witnessing her growth and glory. In this magnificent palace, they are weaving together a dream about mother and daughter, about the emperor, and about the future.

Phoenix in the Ninth Heaven: The Dream of the Mother and Daughter Emperor: Empress Dowager Xiaogong and Li Qingge

Empress Dowager Xiaogong, a woman who left a deep mark in the long river of history, was actually the Consort Wuya of Emperor Kangxi. It was a turbulent era, and the nine sons fought fiercely for the throne, just like nine beasts fighting for a piece of territory. In the end, Yongzheng won with his wisdom and courage and sat on the dragon throne that symbolized supreme power. According to the rules passed down by the ancestors, a mother becomes noble because of her son, so Wuya was honored as the empress dowager, and her identity and status changed dramatically overnight.

However, the empress dowager had an unspeakable preference in her heart. She always felt that the imperial edict of Emperor Kangxi was originally for the fourteenth prince, not the fourth prince, Yongzheng. Therefore, she often said in private in front of others that Yongzheng had tampered with the imperial edict and seized the throne from his brother. This obsession was like a huge rock, pressing on her heart, making her unable to let go.

After becoming the Empress Dowager, Uya did not enjoy the honor as people expected. She often made trouble and refused to cooperate with Yongzheng's arrangements. Yongzheng wanted to give her a title to show respect, but she refused to accept it; he wanted her to move to the Cining Palace to enjoy the wealth and glory she deserved, but she refused to come out of the Yonghe Palace, as if there were memories and emotions there that she could not let go.

One day, Empress Ulanara and her concubines went to pay respects to her, wanting to show their filial piety. However, Uya closed the door and left them outside in the cold wind. The weather was not good that day, and the cold wind was so strong that it hurt people's cheeks. The Empress and her concubines stood at the door, not knowing whether to go in or out, feeling extremely embarrassed. In the end, they had no choice but to leave, and many of them fell ill when they returned.

Uya's behavior made Yongzheng lose face and feel embarrassed. People in and out of the palace were shocked and talked about the various behaviors of the empress dowager. The fourth and fourteenth sons were her biological sons. No matter who became the emperor, her position as the empress dowager would be secure. But she had to make things difficult for the eldest son, which was simply unwise. In this way, Uya became a negative example among empress dowagers, causing people to talk about it and shake their heads and sigh.

However, there was another smart woman in the palace, the current queen. She saw what happened to Uya and was alert in her heart, so she would not repeat the same mistake. She knew that no matter who became the emperor, the position of queen mother would eventually be hers. Moreover, she did not want to hurt the mother-daughter relationship because of the fight for the throne, which was one of her most cherished feelings.

Rong Mama was the Queen's personal maid. Seeing that the Queen was so sensible, she felt relieved. She knew that the Fifth Princess had a strong personality, and the Queen was also a strong-willed person. If there was a rift because of the Twelfth Prince, and it ended up like the Empress Dowager Xiaogong, it would be too sad. Fortunately, the Queen was a sensible person and knew that no matter who became the emperor, the position of the Empress Dowager would eventually belong to her. And she didn't have to wait until the future, she was already the Empress Dowager, and she became the Empress Dowager of Dayan with the halo of her daughter. Thinking of this, Rong Mama smiled like a blooming golden chrysanthemum, and that smile was full of relief and joy.

At this time, the fifth princess, Li Qingge, was standing on the rockery in the imperial garden, gazing at the distant sky. Her eyes were deep and complex, as if they contained endless stories and emotions. She was wearing a gorgeous palace dress, a golden crown on her head, and a red silk draped over her body. She looked like a fairy who had descended to the mortal world, breathtakingly beautiful.

When Emperor Qianlong first saw Li Qingge, he was amazed. He had never seen such a beautiful woman before, as if all the colors in the world were gathered on her. However, when he learned of Li Qingge's identity, his amazement quickly turned into deep disappointment. He did not expect that this woman who made his heart beat so fast was actually his biological daughter.

However, Li Qingge's beauty made Qianlong's heart restless for a long time. He often saw her figure in his dreams. His graceful figure and beautiful face made him unforgettable. Compared with her, the concubines in the harem were eclipsed, as if they had lost all their brilliance. Qianlong boasted that there were three thousand beauties in the harem, but compared with Li Qingge, they all became ordinary goods. People are pissed off when compared to others, and goods are thrown away when compared to goods. Therefore, the harem became a lot quieter. Although the concubines were dissatisfied, they dared not say it out loud, and could only grit their teeth secretly.

When the queen heard about Qianlong's thoughts, her face changed with fear. She knew the seriousness of the matter. If it was not handled properly, it would not only hurt the relationship between mother and daughter, but also cause turmoil in the court. She quickly found Li Qingge, told her about Qianlong's thoughts, and told her not to let Qianlong know her true identity. After hearing what the queen said, Li Qingge was also flustered. She didn't expect Qianlong to have such feelings for her, which made her feel embarrassed and helpless.

However, Qianlong's disappointment did not last long, and soon turned into fear. He was afraid of the news from Japan. The navy of Dayan defeated Japan, occupied the four major islands, and destroyed Japan. This was a shocking news to the world, and it was also a news that made Qianlong feel extremely frightened. He knew the cruelty and bloodiness of this war, and also knew the price paid behind this victory.

Shi Shuyu, whether for revenge or to establish his authority, actually killed 300,000 Japanese warriors. This number frightened Qianlong, as if he saw those innocent lives disappearing in the swordplay. Moreover, Shi Shuyu also demoted the emperor and a group of nobles to pariahs, which made Qianlong unacceptable. He knew that the struggle between countries was cruel, but such an act of killing hundreds of thousands of people and demoting a country to pariahs was unprecedented.

As soon as the news came out, the whole world was shocked. People talked about the cruelty and bloodiness of the war, and also about the brutality and ruthlessness of Da Yan. After hearing these discussions, Qianlong was even more frightened. He was afraid that this war would cause resentment and hostility from other countries, and he was even more afraid that Li Qingge would be implicated. He knew Li Qingge's talent and ambition, and he also knew that she had courage and wisdom that were not inferior to any man. If she was implicated because of this war, it would be a pain he could not bear.

However, Li Qingge was not greatly affected by the war. She knew the cruelty and bloodiness of the war, and also knew the price paid for the victory. But she knew more clearly that she had her own mission and responsibility. She could not give up her ideals and ambitions because of the war, nor could she put herself in trouble because of the war. Therefore, she chose to face everything with strength and meet the challenges of the future with her wisdom and courage.

When the queen saw Li Qingge's strength and courage, she felt extremely relieved and proud. She knew that her daughter had talents and ambitions that were no less than any man's, and also had strong will and courage. She believed that Li Qingge would be able to overcome all difficulties and realize her ideals and ambitions. At the same time, she also strengthened her belief to do her best to protect her daughter and family from any harm.
