Chapter 167

Gu Mohan raised his eyes and met the Queen Mother's eyes. He was about to speak, but Nan Wanyan, who saw that the situation was not good, interrupted him first.

"Replying to my grandmother, the prince is saying that actually you don't have to do this, both of us will live a happy life."

"Besides, isn't this relationship between husband and wife just for fun? The prince drank a lot of tonic decoction last night. Although it made his granddaughter-in-law... it inevitably lost a little bit of emotion."

She smiled, didn't shy away from speaking, and spoke politely and clearly, which made the Empress Dowager's embarrassed expression ease a little.

Gu Mohan glanced at Nan Wanyan.

Sure enough, he is so glib, no wonder the Queen Mother takes it so seriously!

But he also knew that what he just said went too far, and there was no need to glare at an old man.

Although, the old man did do something that annoyed him.

He didn't say anything again, and the atmosphere improved. Nan Wanyan immediately added another sentence with a smile.

"Grandma, come, Yan'er will give you a bowl of sweet-scented osmanthus soup to drink to relieve your anger."

She served it neatly, and accidentally sprinkled some soothing powder into the bowl, and handed it to the Queen Mother respectfully.

The depression on the Queen Mother's face completely disappeared, and she became more and more satisfied looking at Nan Wanyan.

"Okay, Yan'er from the Ai family is better, unlike King Yi who can't speak!"

After saying that, she glared at Gu Mohan, looking like a child losing her temper.

Gu Mohan was minding his own business, sipping the tea in front of him, turning a deaf ear to the Queen Mother's eyes and sarcasm.

Nan Wanyan breathed a sigh of relief before returning to his seat and sitting down.

From time to time in the Luanfeng Palace, there were gossips about Nan Wanyan and the Queen Mother, mostly the old lady telling her how to take good care of her health and what to pay attention to if she got pregnant.

Nan Wanyan laughed and nodded in response, but sighed in her heart.

She had already gone through hell in order to give birth to two little girls. She understood all these principles, but she could not stop her and let others discover the life experience of the two little girls.

Thinking of this, Nan Wanyan thought even more about the two cute little dumplings who were still waiting for her in the palace.

After breakfast, the two wanted to leave, but they saw a little maid walking in with a kind face outside the door.

She bowed to the three of them and saluted, and then said to the Queen Mother, "Reporting to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother would like to ask Princess Yi to come over."

"The empress heard that Princess Yi entered the palace yesterday, so she sent her servant to invite her early this morning."

The little maid lowered her eyes and glanced at the expression of the Queen Mother sitting high up from time to time.

Gu Mohan glanced at Nan Wanyan, who frowned slightly.

The queen is so attentive for nothing, so she should be attacking her!

She walked out openly and smiled gently at the Queen Mother, who frowned and looked coldly, "My granddaughter-in-law will go to greet my mother first. Grandma, don't worry. My granddaughter-in-law will come back as soon as she goes."

The Queen Mother hesitated to speak. She sighed helplessly and waved her hands, "Well, it's time to go and take a look."

Nan Wanyan followed the little maid out of Luanfeng Palace. Gu Mohan was not invited and watched Nan Wanyan's retreating figure with a complicated expression.

The queen came to invite someone at this time, I'm afraid... the person who came was not good.

The little maid led the way, keeping her eyebrows lowered and nodding. She didn't say a word to Nan Wanyan on the way.

Nan Wanyan wanted to find a topic to ask her about the Queen's situation several times, but the little maid was like a ruthless guiding machine. She led her all the way to the back of the Queen's Yuxin Palace, then stopped in front of the palace door and did this to her.

Made a "please" gesture.

"The Queen is inside, please invite me, Princess."

Before Nan Wanyan could react, she heard a burst of laughter and excitement inside.

She listened carefully and heard the familiar voices of the first two women.

Nan Wanyan raised her eyebrows and stepped in, just in time to see Nan gently serving tea to the queen.

Nan Qingqing looked like a "model good daughter-in-law" and smiled gently and amiably.

"The queen is drinking tea. I heard that the queen's spleen and stomach have not been very good recently, so I specially asked the imperial kitchen to brew this pot of hawthorn tea for you."

This move clearly impressed the Queen, who nodded happily.

"Okay, you are very thoughtful. It is truly a blessing for King Cheng to have you as his wife!"

Nan Qingqing pretended to hide her face and smiled shyly, perfectly interpreting what a lady's style is.

Everyone is not a fool, and anyone with a clear eye can see that Nan Qingqing is particularly favored.

Nan Wanyan could also tell. Looking around, he found that the Yu Xin Palace was really busy today.

The tenth imperial concubine, Xu Wanying, was feeding a little boy of about eight years old. The boy was handsome and well-dressed.

Nan Wanyan guessed it was a certain little prince.

The others present were not only Nan Qingqing, but also a group of noble ladies who usually flattered the queen to please her.

Among them, Jiang Ruyue's bright yellow skirt is particularly eye-catching.

It looks like there will be a fierce battle today.

However, when the soldiers came to cover up the water and the earth, she, Nan Wanyan, had no time to suffer from stage fright!

A sneer curled up at the corner of Nan Wanyan's lips, and she coughed lightly and walked in.

Her appearance solidified the peaceful and happy atmosphere in an instant. Several noble ladies changed their expressions, and Jiang Ruyue showed disdain on her face, except——

Nan Qingqing still looked noble and distinguished. The queen raised her eyebrows and a chill flashed across her eyes, but her smile remained unchanged.

However, Xu Wanying seemed to have seen a fairy descending to earth, and she could not hide the excitement on her face. This was the second time they met since Nan Wanyan rescued her at the last palace banquet.

She gently poked the child next to her and whispered to him, "This is what my sister-in-law mentioned to you. Sister-in-law Sixth Emperor, how about little Thirteen? Isn't Sister-in-law good-looking?"

The Thirteenth Prince nodded blankly, still holding a piece of mung bean cake in his hand, and smiled cutely at Nan Wanyan.

Nan Wanyan nodded slightly to Xu Wanying and the Thirteenth Prince, and bowed to the Queen.

"My son, I want to pay my respects to my mother. I am late, so I want to ask my mother to punish me."

The queen sat high on it and did not let Nan Wanyan get up. She only glanced at her lightly.

"Why, is this palace not inviting Princess Yi to see me? Or is it that Princess Yi is dissatisfied with me -"
