After I was reborn, I became the queen mother by fortune telling

Chapter 230 Mu Qingyuan is Jealous
Jiang Yu was amused by Mu Qingyuan's words.

Still, it's a big deal.

As the empress dowager, leaving the palace privately without discussing with anyone, no matter what the reason is, is against etiquette, and may even involve some important secrets.

"If Jiang Meiren wants to go back to the palace, I will send someone to see you off. If there is nothing wrong, you can accompany me to wait for the Queen Mother to come back. Anyway, one is reading a book alone, and the two of you may have a chat." Mu Qingyuan said.

"The concubine has nothing important to do, but what does the emperor want to talk about?"

"Talk—you met Yin Yan outside the palace, did you really just get to know each other?"

Jiang Yu was taken aback, flustered like a guilty conscience.

"That's right! I've met him several times, but I never thought he was the envoy of Ningqiu Kingdom." Jiang Yu hurriedly explained.

Mu Qingyuan suddenly smiled: "Looking at your reaction, I know it's not easy."

"No, nothing!" Jiang Yu hurriedly waved her hands.

"If something happens, the envoy's head is no longer on his neck." Although Mu Qingyuan smiled, his eyes were dark.

Jiang Yu broke out in a sweat.

If at this time, Mu Qingyuan misunderstood something, let alone becoming the empress dowager, his own life would be in danger.

Jiang Yu's heart broke, and she decided to tell the truth.

"The Yin Yan asked the concubine if he would like to go to Ningqiu country with him, but the concubine refused."

"Is there such a thing? This person is really audacious to ask you such a question." Mu Qingyuan said coldly.

Jiang Yu chewed out the cold and hard taste in his tone, and quickly comforted her with a few words: "The concubine thinks so too. What is he, to act so recklessly. The concubine told him that he has a marriage contract, and his fiancé is a hundred times stronger than him... ..."

Miraculously, Mu Qingyuan's gloomy expression eased down, and there was even a playful smile on his lips.

"Oh? You really said that?"

Seeing what she said casually, Jiang Yu actually made Mu Qingyuan feel better, and knew that he had met his symptoms.

"Of course! The concubine also said that the concubine's fiancé is handsome, has both ability and political integrity, and is as rich as a country!"

Mu Qingyuan looked at Jiang Yu, if these words were true, then he would have to re-evaluate his position in Jiang Meiren's heart.

"It's barely pertinent." He said lightly, but a smile could not help appearing on his face.

Jiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that Mu Qingyuan's anger had subsided.

"Then how did Yin Yan answer you?"

"How to answer, how to answer..." Jiang Yu thought for a long time, "He seemed to be indifferent, and felt that he must be stronger."

Mu Qingyuan couldn't help laughing: "Even if he really said these words in the tone of an envoy of Ningqiu Kingdom, it's rare to be so confident."

"No! That's why the concubine ignored him at all!" Jiang Yu was completely relieved, and told Mu Qingyuan proudly.

"This person told me today that he wanted to marry a lady in Daxia Kingdom as his official wife, and I promised him to come. If the woman he likes is willing to marry him, I can secure the matchmaker for him. It turns out that the matchmaker Bao came to my harem."

Mu Qingyuan's expression turned pale again.

Jiang Yu looked at the table, and it happened that Mu Qingyuan just finished drinking tea, and his teacup was empty, so she quickly picked up the teapot at the side, lifted the lid, filled it with tea, and put it in front of Mu Qingyuan .

"The emperor invites you to drink tea to calm down. This kind of person is not worthy of the emperor's anger." Jiang Yu said as gently as possible.

In fact, Mu Qingyuan wasn't really angry at first, he said this just to tease Jiang Yu, on the other hand, it was also because he was a little jealous.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yu told the situation that he didn't understand at all, and the envoy actually asked Jiang Yu to follow him back to Ningqiu country.

But the words Jiang Yu used to describe herself made Mu Qingyuan feel very relieved.

In particular, she even poured herself a cup of tea herself.

"Your majesty, don't be angry anymore. At worst, the courtiers and concubines will not see this person again." Jiang Yu couldn't help but act like a spoiled child.

"That doesn't have to be deliberate, but when you want to see him, I just need to be there." Mu Qingyuan picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea.

The tea that Jiang Meiren poured herself seems to be more fragrant and sweet.

They were drinking tea and chatting, when there was another knock on the door.

"Your Majesty, Guard Huang is back." It was still Eunuch Gao's voice.

"Let him in."

Eunuch Gao paused before answering with a "yes".

When Jiang Yu heard that a guard was coming in, she stood up: "Do you want to avoid it?"

"No, he is the one who secretly followed the queen mother out of the palace. You are here, let's listen together!"

Jiang Yu stopped sitting down and stood beside Mu Qingyuan.

A man in his 20s came in.

He was dressed in black clothes that were easy to come and go at night, with a moderate figure and an ordinary appearance.

After he came in, he only bowed to Mu Qingyuan, and he didn't take a closer look at who the woman standing next to the emperor was.

"Tell me about what happened after you left the palace tonight." Mu Qingyuan lazily said.

"Yes." Huang Shiwei replied respectfully.

"In the evening, the envoys of the Ningqiu Kingdom set off from the Empress Dowager's Changxia Palace and went straight out of the palace without stopping anywhere."

"It took a long time for the Empress Dowager to leave the palace. She was disguised, and Aunt Fu waited on her. The two of them left through the west gate."

"Wei Chen secretly followed them all the way. They didn't change carriages when they left the palace, but directly drove out of the palace with the carriage in the palace."

Mu Qingyuan's brows were tightly furrowed, he had already vaguely guessed where the Queen Mother had gone.

It's just that he has an intuition and doesn't know why the Queen Mother is going.

Then Huang Shiwei continued: "Weichen followed the carriage until the carriage stopped. Weichen saw the Empress Dowager and Aunt Fu getting off the carriage together."

"Where did they get off?" Mu Qingyuan asked.

"Speaking of which, I also find it strange that the empress dowager got off the car near an inn, and then walked directly into the inn. Oh, by the way, this inn is called Debao Inn."

"Wei Chen was afraid of arousing suspicion from the Empress Dowager, so he didn't follow up, but when the Empress Dowager finally came out, under the light, Wei Chen felt that her eyes were very red, as if she had just cried."

"The Empress Dowager never went to other places after that, and went back to the palace directly."

When Mu Qingyuan heard "Debao Inn", Mu Qingyuan already knew that his guess was right.

But why the Queen Mother went to the Debao Inn to meet Yin Yan is still unclear.

It stands to reason that the queen mother called Yin Yan over this afternoon and chatted all afternoon, and the chat should have been finished long ago.

Even if the chat is not over, the next day, an imperial decree can still be issued to announce him into the palace.

Why do we have to meet in the middle of the night?
