Lady Changning

Chapter 188 Come To See You (1)

Huangfu Shenqian thought she was worried about the road ahead, so he stepped forward and held her hand to comfort her.

"Don't worry, I will protect you."

Xi Changning frowned slightly, still not used to his overtures like this, but she needed him, and he was the only person she could rely on or even use in the future.

Sure enough, as they expected, Xi Changning's appearance caused a sensation, but she could accept the kneeling of thousands of people without expression.She thought that Huangfu Shenqian still cared about her, and didn't want her to stay and hear those gossips, so she immediately called someone to escort her to the East Palace.

And in the East Palace, she also met a familiar person, Mo Lian.She cleaned the East Palace very clean, and everything was well prepared, as if she had never left.

"Slaves see the empress."

"I haven't been canonized yet, so why do you want to be kind to me? I can't embarrass you."

Xi Changning leaned on her and had already forgotten such an official dialogue, but she spoke smoothly as soon as she opened her mouth, maybe she was also prepared.

"The emperor has issued an order, and the servants only have to obey orders."

Mo Lian is no longer like the girl she was a few years ago. She has been in the palace for a long time and knows how to deal with it.Back then, she was kind to Xi Changning for a while, so she let her go, and now there is nothing to prove whether she is right or wrong.

"You still listen to him like that."

Xi Changning raised Mo Lian's face to salute her, it was brighter than a few years ago, there was no fear in the eyes, only the determination to something.

"The emperor is the master, so slaves and servants naturally have to listen to him." Mo Lian avoided Xi Changning's eyes with these words.

This point cannot escape Xi Changning's eyes, but she did not say clearly that there will be more places where Mo Lian will be used in the future, so there is no need to point it out now.

This girl has some sympathy, but she can use it for herself, but she has also been fooled by the lovely and pitiful Xi Lingyan, and she will not do anything that she is not very sure about.

"Your Majesty, this servant has already prepared things for you to bathe and change clothes. You must be exhausted on the way."

Mo Lian stepped forward to open up the topic, she was very courageous, so she dared to talk to her, but Mo Lian had no intention of answering, so it was not easy to ask, anyway, she couldn't ask anything.

And Xi Changning is really tired, her body is working beyond her ability to bear, even if she doesn't look in the mirror now, she knows how pale her face is.

So Xi Changning let Mo Lian take her to the bedroom to take a bath and change clothes, and even fell asleep during the bath because she was too comfortable.

Mo Lian couldn't bear to disturb her but was afraid that she would catch a cold, so she could only shake her awake cruelly. Seeing that Xi Changning opened his eyes but looked at her mercilessly, her heart couldn't help but startled, Xi Changning seemed to have changed.

"Your Majesty, it's better to get up and go back to the room to rest, so as not to catch a cold." Mo Lian immediately replied.

Xi Changning got up and let the palace people dress her, and sent her back to her room. She acted like a puppet in all of this, until her head touched the bed before falling into a deep sleep.

When Huangfu Shenqian entered the East Palace, he saw Xi Changning sleeping. He couldn't bear to disturb her, so he withdrew all the palace people and sat alone on the bedside looking at Xi Changning who was asleep.

All of this was like a dream, she didn't resist and even followed him willingly, he couldn't help pinching himself, fearing that this scene was all imagined by him.

Feeling the pain is definitely not a dream, his hand slid across Xi Changning's pale face, he has tortured himself like this after not seeing her for two years, no matter how much she hated him before, as long as she is willing, he will take good care of him for the rest of the day her.

After covering Xi Changning with a quilt, he walked out of the East Palace and prepared to face those difficult days alone.

"Mo Lian. Take good care of your mother."

"Mo Lian understands."

Mo Lian watched as the man who had turned into a man who could resist everything gradually faded away.

Huangfu Shenqian did not go back to his bedroom, and went to the Queen Mother's palace without even having a sip of water.For the time being, he could think that the only person who could help him was the Queen Mother. When the Queen Mother was still a queen, she had a personal relationship with Xi Changning, and it was Xi Changning's idea to protect the queen.

Now that the queen mother is invited to come forward, I don't know if she is willing to repay the favor.

"My son sees my mother."

"Father."

A little man ran up and threw himself into Huangfu Zimian's arms.

"Yi'er has grown taller again."

Huangfu Yi is the child of the crown prince and Liuli, for the sake of the queen mother and to give Yi'er a good environment, they discussed and took the ignorant child under Huangfu Shenqian's wing.

Perhaps it was because Huangfu Shenqian still had brotherly love for the prince in his heart, so he immediately made Yi'er the first prince, and his own flesh and blood became the second prince.

At that time, the queen mother really let go of her heart, and felt that the path pointed by the slender finger was right.

"Yi'er went to play with the nanny, Grandma Huang has something to talk to your father."

The child obediently said yes, then took the nurse's hand and wobbled out to play.

"Your Majesty, you don't need to say more. I know what you want to say, so I won't hide it from you. After all, Changning is your sister-in-law, and now she is going to be your queen. How can someone with a heart agree?"

The queen mother said in embarrassment.

"Queen Mother, you have seen Changning's intelligence before. If you have her to assist, it will not only be good for your children, but also for the world. As long as you explain it to the important officials of the Gu family, they will agree."

Huangfu Shenqian has always been dedicated to his duties as the emperor. Although he has become a little indifferent, he has handled official affairs quite well, and he is a good emperor.

So he was so impatient and even nervous, it was the first time the queen mother saw him, so Xi Changning must be really nervous.

"Your Majesty, you are so nervous about Changning, it must be affectionate. It's just that I don't understand why you used to..." It seems that you don't care much about Xi Changning.

"No matter whether it was before or in the future, my minister's affection for Changning has not changed. It's just that the world is unpredictable, so I can't miss it anymore."

The Empress Dowager did not expect him to speak so bluntly. Think about it, if Xi Changning could use it for her own use, it would not be a waste.

"I will help you. As for other people, it depends on you. After all, this harem is not only for me, but also for the court. If you want to be justified, Yi'er can also help. It stands to reason that Changning is Yi'er's mother. Now that Yi'er is the eldest prince, it's not difficult for a mother to depend on her son."

The queen mother explained some methods that Huangfu Shenqian hadn't thought of, he thought about it carefully, and hurriedly stepped forward to thank the queen mother.

The queen mother was not in a hurry to be happy, after all, Xi Changning was an anomaly, not to mention that her heart might not be on Huangfu Shenqian, but on Huangfu Zimian.

She is very happy that Huangfu Zimian is staying in the palace now, but Xi Changning is also back, everything is so coincidental.I hope that I will not let down Huangfu Shenqian's deep affection.

The night before ascending to the post, Xi Lingyan came to find him.Her complexion was very ugly, presumably Xi Changning's appearance shocked her before she had time to think of a countermeasure.

"Concubine Hua, the empress is still resting, you should come later." Mo Lian's business has already interrupted Xi Changning's nap in the house.

"Empress? This is already a catchy word before she ascended the throne. Why can't I still see you? You are nothing until you officially ascend to the position of empress. I still have a higher status than her."

Maybe Xi Lingyan was really in a hurry. It was too late for others to fawn on such a fixed matter, and she insisted on hitting someone else's knife.

"Mo Lian let her in." Sitting upright, Xi Changning called out to the door, but no emotion could be heard in his voice.

For Xi Changning, from the moment Xi Lingyan betrayed her, he should have known that she would have to pay the price sooner or later.

Mo Lian responded, and opened the door, a woman in blue palace attire walked in quickly, her complexion was not good-looking, she must have been in a hurry.

"Sit down and talk, don't show the joke to the servants." Xi Changning said calmly.

For Xi Lingyan's appearance, she was more or less aware of it. For Xi Lingyan in the palace, there were only enemies and no one to trust.So not to mention that someone will come forward to help her.

"Look at the jokes, do I still have few jokes now? The queen is actually you!"

She never dreamed that Xi Changning would come back after going around for a while, and even robbed her of what she was thinking of.

"There are so many things you can't think of. Don't you think you are smart? Did I overestimate you?"

Xi Changning was not afraid of Xi Lingyan's questioning, all this was just returning everything she had suffered to Xi Lingyan, there was nothing to tangle about.

Xi Lingyan knew that she was no match for Xi Changning at this moment. She was so intelligent that the emperor could even persuade the ministers to accept her as queen regardless of her special status.

But why does she love the emperor so much that he just doesn't want to look at her again? Could it be that because Xi Changning is back, her substitute doesn't seem so important?

"Second sister, I respect you so I call you out. I told you earlier that he is not suitable for you. You are the one who insisted on getting involved in this disturbance."

"No! It's all because of you, it's because of you that it became like this."

Xi Lingyan was used to Xi Changning's help in the past, and always felt that it was so easy to get what she had at hand, and even selfishly felt that this thing should belong to her.

Xi Changning knew that Xi Lingyan had been blinded by all the love and had nothing to say, so he stopped talking and glanced at Mo Lian.Mo Lian understood, and stepped forward to help Xi Lingyan.

"Concubine Hua, you can go back first when the empress is tired. There will be more opportunities to catch up on the old days."

Unexpectedly, Xi Lingyan gave Mo Lian a vicious look, and pushed her away.

"No matter what you are, you dare to touch me."

Mo Lian was also obviously taken aback by the look in her eyes, and stared blankly at Xi Lingyan walking out of the East Palace by herself.

"Don't worry about it, she won't dare to talk to you like this before long with Ben Gong here."

Xi Changning obviously didn't take Xi Lingyan's anger to heart.
