Chapter 269 Meeting the Empress
In the dormitory where the empresses of the Li Kingdom lived, sitting at the head of the hall was a middle-aged woman who was over forty years old.

I saw that she was wearing a bright red brocade gown with peonies embroidered with gold trim, a phoenix bun and a fringed crown feather made of a golden phoenix on top of her head, and a few gold step rocks were inserted obliquely on both sides of her ear temples.There is a bright red cinnabar dotted between her eyebrows, her eyebrows are thin and long, her skin can be broken by blows, and her lips are painted with bright red lip balm, showing grace and nobility in every move.

She is the most honorable woman in the entire Li Kingdom, the current empress of Li Han's emperor Li Han, and the biological mother of Li Qiuyu and Li Qiuxu - Nalanyan.

After Lu Wanyun saluted Nalanyan, the smile on her face gradually faded, and she looked at her with an aggrieved expression, and said in a soft and weeping voice: "Queen Empress, have you heard the rumors that are getting worse in Li City?"

"Oh? What rumor? Tell me about it." Nalanyan, who was sitting upright on the first seat, raised her eyebrows, picked up the tea on the low table beside her, and took a sip, addressing her in a very gentle tone. Lu Wanyun said.

"Your Majesty, you know that there are rumors everywhere in Licheng that the Second Prince is in love with a woman brought back by the Ninth Princess, and there are even rumors that he will ruin the emperor's marriage with your little girl because of that woman. "As Lu Wanyun said, the tears that had been brewing in her eyes for a long time fell instantly, adding a lot of sadness to her already gentle face that was about to cry. It seemed that this rumor in the city had hit her hard.

"Wan Yun, you have been watched by me since you were young, just like half of my daughter. And the marriage contract between you and Yu'er was also made by the emperor and me. If the emperor and me didn't give permission , Yu’er must never regret your marriage, and it’s even more impossible for others to take away your wife’s position. So no matter what the rumors outside, you don’t have to worry about this. Do you understand?” Nalanyan listened to Lu Wanyun’s words, she Slowly put down the teacup in his hand, then stood up and walked towards Lu Wanyun step by step.As he walked, he comforted her.

"But empress, the second prince has been running to the princess's mansion every day recently. The maid of the little girl heard yesterday that the maid who came out to buy in the princess' mansion said that every time the second prince came to the princess mansion, he didn't come to see the ninth princess, but stayed by that woman every day. Outside the courtyard where I live, I just want to see her. And I go there almost every morning after the court, and I don’t return until the evening. In this way, let alone whether the rumor is true or not, I’m afraid that if things go on like this, even if there is According to your and the emperor's will, there is no guarantee that the second prince will not...not turn the rumors into truth."

As Lu Wanyun spoke, she raised her hand and wiped the tears on her face with the silk handkerchief in her hand, then she bit her lower lip lightly, sobbing softly, her appearance was extremely cute even to a stranger, Not to mention Nalanyan who watched her grow up since she was a child.

Nalanyan walked to Lu Wanyun's side, took her hand in her palm, and said with relief: "Wanyun, look at the women in Yu'er's backyard, is there any one that he has tried every means to please? In the mansion? But what about after entering the mansion? It’s not like letting go of the initial freshness. So you don’t have to worry at all, because no matter how many women Yu’er recruits outside the mansion, he will There will always be only one wife, and that person is you."

"But." Lu Wanyun bit her lip, wanting to say something else, but after meeting Nalanyan's noble and powerful gaze, she silenced her voice and nodded nonchalantly.

"Wan Yun, you have to know that Yu'er is not an ordinary person. He will inherit the throne in the future, so it is impossible for him to have only a woman like you by his side, and the ministers in the court will not allow you to enjoy the exclusive favor. And In order to stabilize the throne and control the political power in the future, those ministers will try their best to stuff their daughters into the harem. Therefore, from the moment you are married to Yu'er, you should and must learn to adapt, After all, you still have a long way to go in the future, and what you are doing now is just the tip of the iceberg in the future life in the harem."

As Nalanyan said, she glanced at the grievance on Lu Wanyun's face, and remembered what she said earlier about Li Qiuyu's diligently going to the princess mansion to see that woman every day, she continued: "But these things can't be rushed, after all You and Yu'er grew up together since you were young, and I can see your love for him. It is really difficult for you to understand this all of a sudden. How about it, you told Bengong Yu'er earlier The woman I recently fell in love with lives in the Princess Mansion, and it seems that she is someone Xu Er met from outside. Then do you know her name and where did she come from?"

Lu Wanyun shook her head, and replied softly: "My little girl only knows that the woman's surname is Yu, and everyone in the princess' mansion calls her Miss Yu. As for where she was born, no one has mentioned it, and the Ninth Princess never allows anyone to inquire about it." Her news, so her origin has naturally become a mystery. And the little girl heard that the treatment of the jade girl in the princess mansion is exactly the same as that of the nine princesses, and the princess ordered it herself."

"Oh? The origin is a mystery? Xu'er still doesn't allow anyone to inquire about her? What kind of woman is Yu'er looking for?" Nalanyan frowned, her beautiful eyes gradually narrowed, and she will serve herself everywhere. The mother-in-law called out and said in front of Lu Wanyun: "Mother Du, you go to the princess mansion now and invite Xu'er and that mysterious jade girl into the palace. I'd better take a look at that girl." What kind of person is Miss Yu, so that rumors about her and Yu'er are spreading everywhere in Licheng. Wan Yun, you should stay a little longer and meet her with Bengong."

"Yes, slaves obey."

"Yes, the Queen Mother."

After two responses, Madam Du led the order to go to the Princess Mansion, while Lu Wanyun was dragged by Nalan Yan to the Imperial Garden for a while. I have been waiting in the hall for a long time.

"Greetings to the queen mother, all blessings to the queen mother." Qiu Xu looked at Nalanyan who came in from outside the hall, she smiled and went up to meet her and took her arm, acting like a spoiled child, and then walked behind where Nalanyan could not see Lu Wanyun glanced at her, her eyes were full of disdain and disgust, and there was even a hint of warning.

She has heard a lot of rumors in the city recently, don't think she doesn't know, most of the reason why her mother called her to bring Ayu into the palace this time is because of Lu Wanyun.Originally, the second brother didn't like her, and now he is still making these obstacles behind his back. Sooner or later, she will let her ask for trouble!

When Qiuxu took Nalanyan's arm, Yucixin stood in the hall, looking at Nalanyan and Qiuxu who were getting closer and closer to her, she bent slightly, and said lightly: "I have seen the empress .”
