Chapter 691 Chapter Ninety·Neglect

Even though Queen Mother Tian had been trying to win over Xiao Heng since she was recognized back, she had never really relied on and trusted Xiao Heng like this.

She may not believe other things, but Xiao Heng's ability to investigate cases has been famous since he was a member of the Jinyi Guard. She repeatedly told Xiao Heng: "The Ai family knows that you have resentment against the Ai family. The Ai family also

It is true that I have many things I can't do to your father and mother. If you can give the Ai family an understanding of this matter, the Ai family will personally persuade the Holy Father to restore your father and mother's status, so that you can legitimately become your emperor's grandson.

.”

Although there is only one word difference between the emperor's eldest grandson and the emperor's grandson, the difference is huge.

How could Queen Mother Tian give such a guarantee before? She was a master who would not let go of rabbits or hawks. Even if she wanted to woo Xiao Heng, she still had to see the benefits - for example, let Xiao Heng marry Tian Xun and become a

The son-in-law of the Tian family, with the relationship of marriage, she can safely help Xiao Heng fight for the status he deserves.

But things are different now, Queen Mother Tian doesn't care so much anymore.

After she finished entrusting Xiao Heng, she fell seriously ill and was in a coma for several days, suffering from intermittent fever.

Doctor Shen was called into the palace to treat the Queen Mother, and finally came to the conclusion that the Queen Mother was too emotional, she was overjoyed and sad, and her moods were ups and downs. She couldn't bear it. It was very difficult to recover from her anger.

Even Doctor Shen said this, and the atmosphere in the palace suddenly became more solemn, and there was a feeling that a storm was coming.

Tian Xun was waiting by his side without taking off his clothes. He did everything himself and never left the Queen Mother's bed.

When Queen Mother Tian got better again, it was already half a month later. She had lost a lot of weight. The Queen Mother's phoenix robe was wearing on her body, and it also felt like it was fractal. When she saw Tian Xun, she still couldn't react for a while -

-Tian Xun has endured this for more than half a month and has become quite haggard. His face is pale and his eyes have black circles, and he looks like he is seriously ill.

When she learned that Tian Xun was taking care of herself, she was inevitably moved and patted the back of Tian Xun's hand: "Thank you for your hard work."

"What are you talking about, the Queen Mother?" Tian Xun shook his head and said in a very soft voice: "The Queen Mother treats me like a grandson. I have the opportunity to repay the Queen Mother. This is my blessing. How can I call it hard work?"

Queen Mother Tian nodded absently and smiled perfunctorily: "What a good boy. Well, the Ai family is fine now. You have worked hard for so many days, so go back and have a good rest for a few days."

Tian Xun wanted to say something more, but Queen Mother Tian had already waved her hand: "Go ahead."

She had no choice but to withdraw. By the time she left the Queen Mother's palace, the smile on her face had completely disappeared and her face was full of gloom.

The little palace maid Qing He who had been waiting by her side cautiously came up to her. Seeing that she was in a bad mood, she hurriedly asked her: "What's wrong, girl?"

Tian Xun was a good person, generous with his actions and willing to win over. In the Queen Mother's Palace, the maids were willing to talk to her about anything. Qing He was in charge of her daily life, so he seemed to have become hers.

.

Hearing Qinghe's question, Tian Xun put on his usual smile and shook his head slightly. Then when he returned to his room, he asked Qinghe: "When did you come to Cining Palace as an errand?"

Qinghe quickly took down the peach blossoms placed by the window and replaced them with a pot of camellias newly delivered from the greenhouse. After hearing this, she thought for a moment: "It's been three or four years."

After three or four years, Tian Xun couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Seeing that she was silent, Qinghe thought she had done something wrong, and couldn't help but feel a little worried: "Girl, did I do something wrong?"

"No." Tian Xun smiled at her gently, but he was very irritable in his heart.

She didn't know that the Queen Mother once had a daughter, and the elders in the family never mentioned it.

Originally, Princess Jingming was dead, but there was no need to know.

But now it seems that things are different - the bond between blood is much deeper than she imagined. All the Queen Mother Tian's thoughts are now on Princess Jingming. For this reason, she can't care about her at all.

Yes, she has been taking care of Queen Mother Tian so thoughtfully and meticulously these days, but in Queen Mother Tian's eyes, she can't see her kindness at all.

She didn't know how long the impact of Princess Jingming's incident would last. She couldn't wait for Queen Mother Tian's grief of losing her daughter to pass little by little, and she had to think of ways to bring Queen Mother Tian's attention back to herself.

"Qing He, are you familiar with Mother Tian?" She looked at Qing He with a smile: "All palace maids are released after they are twenty-five years old. Why does Mother Tian still stay in the palace?"

Qinghe didn't think there was anything wrong and replied with a smile: "Mother Tian is indeed married. She was originally in the Shangfu Bureau, but was later released from the palace and returned home to become an embroiderer.

But later, after she got married, her husband failed to live up to her expectations by gambling, drinking, and always beating her. She couldn't bear it anymore, so she divorced her husband and returned to her parents' home. The empress recalled her old relationship and called her in again.

He has resumed his duties in the palace."

Tian Xun was thoughtful.

After she inquired about Tian's mother's affairs in detail, when she went to the main hall, she happened to meet Xiao Heng coming out of the Queen Mother's Hall.

She was startled, then she felt joy and excitement in her heart. She saluted Xiao Heng with a smile: "Your Highness has been busy trying cases these days. It's really hard work."

Xiao Heng had always been indifferent to her. He nodded coldly and walked past her to leave without hesitation.

Tian Xun bit his lip and turned his head sharply. When he saw Xiao Heng had already walked down the steps and walked out, he couldn't help but clenched his fists.

It's like this again, it will always be like this, when will Xiao Heng be able to see her and take her into his eyes? How is she inferior to Su Yao?!

Tian's mother happened to come out and saw her standing on the porch. She couldn't help but wonder: "Why are you standing in the wind? Didn't the Queen Mother ask you to go back and rest first? Why are you here again?"

Hearing the voice of Tian's mother, Tian Xun immediately changed his smile, turned his head and looked at Tian's mother with a smile, and shook his head kindly: "I'm not here to see the Queen Mother, I'm here to see you, mother."

"Looking for me?" Tian's mother was at a loss. Although she had a good relationship with Tian Xun, she didn't have much friendship in private, let alone the point where she came to find her specifically. So she asked in surprise: "Why are you looking for me, girl?"

Tian Xun glanced around: "I'm afraid it's inconvenient to say this here. Please excuse me, mom. I have something I want to ask mom for help with."

After all, Tian Xun was the grand-nephew daughter of Queen Mother Tian. Mother Tian looked at her, nodded and agreed to follow her.
