Chapter 423
"Aijia is going to make jasper agar." Seeing Qin Wange looking at her in surprise, the queen mother couldn't help but smile, "Speaking of which, this jasper agar was taught to Aijia when sister Qiongfei was there. .”

"Is it Situ Yan's concubine?"

The Empress Dowager nodded, twisted a piece of pastry in her hand, and said slowly, "Yes, Concubine Qiong doted on the Sixth Palace back then, and the late Emperor's love for her was unmatched." Speaking of the past, the Empress Dowager had a yearning look on her face, feeling a little emotional Some nostalgia, obviously she had a good relationship with Concubine Qiong back then.

But thinking about it carefully, if the Empress Dowager hadn't had a good relationship with Concubine Qiong back then, how could she have taken Situ Yan in after Concubine Qiong's death and treated her as her own.

"Because Concubine Qiong liked Qionghua back then, the emperor specially transplanted Qionghua from Yunzhou to the palace. In winter, he also ordered the gardener to warm it up every day so that Qionghua would bloom as soon as possible. Back then, Concubine Qiong was in charge of the sixth palace. Even the queen had to avoid her sharpness. But she has always been gentle, and she is even more generous to the palace people. There are countless people in the palace who have received her favor. When I was a little nobleman, because I offended the queen, I almost I was killed by the stick, and it was Concubine Qiong who pleaded for me, so I saved my life. If it weren't for Sister Qiongfei, I wouldn't have all of my future."

Speaking of Concubine Qiong's great favor back then, the Empress Dowager only had warmth and nostalgia in her eyes, without any jealousy.

"Concubine Qiong and the late emperor are generous people, and I don't know who Situ Yan's weird character is like." Qin Wange couldn't help laughing.

"Yan'er only looks weird and difficult to get close to on the surface, but in fact he is the same as Concubine Qiong's sister. If not, how could he still have a pure heart after going through the treacherous court struggle." Queen Mother Originally still smiling, he couldn't help but sigh after speaking, with some sadness in his eyes.

Qin Wange knew that the Queen Mother was thinking of Situ Rui.Then he changed the subject and said, "Is the jasper agar made by Empress Qiong herself?"

The queen mother said: "Yes, this jasper agar is made by people in Yunzhou. The flowering period of Qionghua is short, and sister Qiongfei is a person who cherishes flowers, so she took the palace people to put the Qionghua that fell in various places in the palace before the sun came out. They are all picked up, dried and washed, then soaked with honey and other pear blossoms, and then made into jasper agar after many complicated processes. Then they must be placed in a white jade bottle to retain the original fragrance of the flowers. Concubine Qiong My sister said, in this way, although Qionghua is dead, the fragrance of the flower will still exist."

When it comes to Concubine Qiong, the queen mother is full of admiration and miss.

"Concubine Qiong really has a delicate mind, but why have I never seen my mother do it before?" Qin Wange couldn't help being curious.

"That's because the first emperor didn't allow Jasper agar to be made in the palace after the death of Concubine Qiong's sister. Even Yan'er was sick and clamored to eat Jasper agar when she was a child, the first emperor didn't allow it. I'm afraid it's true, think about others when you see things." Said At this point, the Queen Mother's words were full of regret, and she sighed softly.

The so-called deep love does not last long, what kind of love was there between the late emperor and sister Qiongfei?At that time, there was a garden full of Qionghua in Miyagi, which has become a good story.But Concubine Qiong was a confidante, and she fell ill early and passed away.The first emperor was also depressed because he missed Concubine Qiong.

But she, an outsider, just walked along the way and became a queen and the mother of the world.In the end, because her son became the emperor, she became the empress dowager.

These were all things she had never imagined, but they happened to her inexplicably.

How many ups and downs and unknowns in life can never be predicted.

Xuanyuan Lie walked into the courtyard gate.

This is just an extremely simple and unadorned yard. A viburnum almost occupies half of the small yard.The size is only three rooms made of bamboo.

The little book boy led Xuanyuan Lie to the outside of the room in the middle, but he didn't go in, but stood at the door and said to the door: "Sir, someone is here."

"Come in." A faint voice came from inside, the voice was clear and full of vicissitudes, and the owner's age could not be discerned.

There are tables and chairs in the room, which seems to be used for entertaining guests, and further inside, it is separated by a bamboo curtain, and one can only vaguely see someone sitting there behind the bamboo curtain, dressed in common clothes.

"Sir." Xuanyuan Lie bowed to the person behind the bamboo curtain.

If someone sees this scene, they will definitely be very surprised: Who is behind the bamboo curtain?To be able to make Xuanyuan Lie, who has always been conceited, treat him respectfully and courteously.

The people behind the bamboo curtain calmly accepted Xuanyuan Lie's salute, and asked indifferently, "How about going to see King Lingzhou today?"

"As Mr. expected, Situ Yan has long since distrusted me. He came this time to knock the mountain to shake the tiger."

Xuanyuan Lie was still a little scared. He thought that he had done everything seamlessly, but he didn't expect that Situ Yan had already controlled his every move.

"After all, he has the blood of the Yun family on his body, and he was born in the royal family, so he should not be underestimated." The voice from behind the curtain was smiling, but it was not known whether it was ridicule or approval.

Xuanyuan Lie hesitated for a while before asking: "Sir, if we revealed Harry's hiding place to Situ Yan this time, would he be suspicious?"

The person behind the curtain picked up the teacup and said slowly, "No, the best way to deceive a smart person is to tell him the truth..."

There was an inexplicable hint of conspiracy in his voice.

The wind blew, and the viburnum in the yard fell to the ground, falling like snow.

Thousands of miles away, in Xiling Jingzhong, in the other garden of the Wangfu, the dusty past made the queen mother open up the chatterbox, and Qin Wange was interested in everything, so the queen mother carefully talked about every detail about Concubine Qiong.

Qin Wange suddenly thought of Situ Xiao, and asked, "Mother, do you know the relationship between the late emperor, Concubine Qiong, and King Yu?"

After all, this is a secret matter of the elders. When Qin Wange asked, he thought about his choice of words.

"You mean Prince Yu?" The Queen Mother was a little surprised, "Did Prince Yu know sister Concubine Qiong?"

Seeing the surprised look on the Empress Dowager's face, Qin Wange felt a little strange at the moment.

It stands to reason that if there was any relationship between King Yu and Concubine Qiong, the Empress Dowager, who was closest to Concubine Qiong, would have known about it. It is impossible to be ignorant or even so surprised...

But Qin Wange didn't think much about it, just thinking, maybe it's because this matter is about the face of the royal family, and Concubine Qiong didn't mention it much, or even Concubine Qiong herself didn't know that Yu Wang was obsessed with her, so she just Didn't say much.

Qin Wange smiled and said: "I made a random guess, so please don't be offended by the empress. However, the empress had a close relationship with Concubine Qiong back then, so she should know something about Concubine Qiong's life experience."

She asked these questions entirely out of wanting to know more about Situ Yan.

Why doesn't the queen mother know what Qin Wange's little daughter is thinking? The queen mother looked at Qin Wange clearly and said, "Concubine Qiong is from the Yun family in Yunzhou. The Yun family is the most mysterious and ancient family in the Eastern Land. It doesn't belong to Xiling or It belongs to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and rarely involved in government affairs. If Yun Ruotian, a child of the Yun family, had not violated the clan rules and got involved in secular disputes, the Yun family would not have repaired with the royal family in order to make up for their mistakes, and let Concubine Qiong Engaged to the late emperor who was still a prince back then."

This is true.

"Besides, the first emperor had already had a concubine. Even if the first emperor ascended the throne, Concubine Qiong could only be a concubine and not a queen. In fact, there was still King Yu in the royal family who had never married, but for some reason, in the end, sister Concubine Qiong She married the first emperor, not Yuwang."

There seems to be some discrepancies between this and Situ Yan's statement. Didn't the Yun family decide to sever ties with Concubine Qiong because the Yun family chose King Yu first, and then Concubine Qiong chose the late emperor herself?

Qin Wange couldn't understand it.

What happened later, as everyone in the world knew, Concubine Qiong was engaged to the late Emperor and entered the palace as a concubine, while the Yun family had no connection with the imperial court, and the Yun family seemed to have forgotten that there was still a sister in the palace.Even after Concubine Qiong passed away, leaving behind her youngest son, Situ Yan, the Yun family never stepped in to help.As long as Situ Yan has nothing to do with their Yun family.

Qin Wange pondered for a while, then asked, "What about Yun Ruotian? What about the Yun family boy who stood up to turn the tide when Xiling was facing a crisis? Did he return to the Yun family in the end, or did he stay in the court?"

The queen mother was also questioned. She was stunned for a while, but she could only shake her head and said, "Actually, I don't know. Maybe he went back to Yunzhou. If you don't tell me, Ai's family doesn't even think about it. About that person , it seems that no one has heard a single word."

Qin Wange frowned slightly, feeling very puzzled.

The romantic story of the late emperor and Concubine Qiong being in harmony has been extolled by the world, but the starting point for them to meet and know each other has been forgotten by the world.It seems that no one has ever asked, where did the descendant of the Yun family who turned the tide in Xiling's crisis end up?

"It's such a pity for that earth-shattering talent, a once-in-a-century talent, if he can become an official in the court, it will definitely be recorded in the history books." Qin Wange sighed regretfully.

The queen mother smiled inexplicably, and said to Qin Wange: "What you regret is not that Yun Ruotian failed to leave a name in the history, but that if Yun Ruotian is still in court, Yan'er has Yun's family." Helping each other, it will definitely not be as difficult as he is now."

The Empress Dowager Qin Wange teased herself, two red clouds flew up on her face, and she said stiffly, "No." But the expression on her face had already betrayed her true thoughts.

Qin Wange was never a cheerful person, so she could only show her true temperament when she encountered something related to Situ Yan.

The queen mother stroked Qin Wange's hair affectionately, and couldn't help but sighed: "My good boy, you and Yan'er have gone through so much to still be able to walk together, and the queen mother has settled a concern. However, Yan'er has not yet Do you know your real identity?"

Qin Wange paused, the smile on the corner of his mouth froze slightly, and he shook his head: "Mother, it's not the time to tell him yet. I'll wait for him to come back from Yongzhou, and when the situation is stable, I'll tell him..."
