"I think the Crown Princess and the Prince have been married for ten years. How long do you want me to wait before I can have my grandson?" The Queen stood up suddenly and coughed heavily in anger.
"Mother, please calm down. It's all because of my fault that I failed to please His Highness." It's not like Baili Yanran didn't try hard. On the day of the wedding, the prince stayed at Xiaoyue Tower, and everyone in Licheng knew about it.
, in the past ten years, she has not stayed in the Qingming Palace for a single day, and the Crown Princess has become the biggest joke in the Li Kingdom.
"Happiness? What's the point of a princess wanting the prince's heart? As long as the person sleeps next to you, you will worry that the heart will not be yours sooner or later."
"What the Mother Queen has taught me is that I know I was wrong." As soon as Baili Yanran stepped back, the Queen summoned Luo Li to enter the palace.
"My daughter Luo Li pays homage to Her Majesty the Queen."
The queen was finally willing to lift up the bed curtains.
"Girl, come here, let me take a good look at it." The queen held Luo Li's hand tightly, like a mother and daughter who had not seen each other for a long time.
"This girl is becoming more and more beautiful and lovely. I almost don't recognize her."
"Her Majesty the Queen is so complimentary. When Luo Li returned to Li Kingdom, she heard that Her Majesty the Queen was still ill. Is she feeling better now?" Luo Li looked at the Queen's rosy face. It wasn't as if she couldn't stay here as rumored outside, but she couldn't tell.
What exactly is wrong?
"It's just chest tightness, shortness of breath, and some coughing. It's just those people outside who are disturbing people's hearts with rumors." The queen's face suddenly darkened, as if she had something to hide.
"Her Majesty the Queen is in good health, so I can rest assured." Luo Li just couldn't figure out why the Queen quit the court since she was in good health. Could it be true as the rumors outside said.
"Have you heard about the rumors outside?"
Luo Li nodded.
"My daughter has heard a little bit about it."
The queen suddenly smiled bitterly.
"Since ancient times, it has been the right thing for a woman to only support her husband and teach her children since birth. Naturally, some people cannot tolerate me, your aunt, or those who go against those who have bad intentions and ulterior motives."
Luo Li had long heard Luo Zhiyan mention that the queen's three siblings should logically be succeeded by the prince. Unexpectedly, just before the late king died of illness, the prince was assassinated for no reason in the East Palace. The second princess Yu Wuxin was killed by the late queen.
He was supposed to be canonized as the crown prince when he was born, but he never thought that the late king would leave a legacy and make the eldest princess, the current Queen Yu Qingli, the crown prince.
The late king died of illness, and the prince inherited the throne according to the imperial edict. Naturally, there was no lack of opposition in the court, who wanted to support the legitimate princess Yu Wuxin to succeed him, but unfortunately Yu Wuxin also disappeared out of thin air.
Some people speculate that both the former crown prince and the legitimate princess were assassinated by the queen to prevent anyone from questioning the legitimacy of the queen's throne.
"Her Majesty the Queen works diligently and loves the people. Everyone in the Li Kingdom sees it and is grateful in her heart. My aunt fights on the battlefield to protect the peace and prosperity of our Li Kingdom. Is there anything wrong? Her Majesty the Queen and my aunt are both heroines, so why should we be so unworthy?"
The Queen looked at Luo Li with great relief.
"Girl has really grown up. In this case, girl, do you want to be your aunt, someone like me?"
Luo Li hurriedly knelt down.
"My daughter dare not."
The queen helped Luo Li up.
"Are you afraid or don't want to? The girl should know that there are Luolai kingdoms outside our country now, and there are sycophants in the country who are disrupting the government. It is the time to employ people. Now that the girl has returned from her studies, it is time to serve our country.
Already."
"Here comes Luo Lilan, the daughter of the prime minister, who is very smart and charming. She has been canonized as Princess Anle. From now on, she will enter the palace to accompany you."
"Mother, I would like to pay my respects to my mother." Yu Wuhen hurried over when he learned that Luo Li had been ordered to enter the palace.
"How unbecoming the prince is in such a panic." The queen was also a little tired, so Luo Li helped the queen to rest on the soft couch.
"My son heard that the Queen Mother was ill, so he thought that he could serve the Queen Mother." Yu Wuhen's eyes were always on Luo Li, and he couldn't bear to miss it.
"If the prince is really serious, it is better to let me have a grandson earlier." There are three unfilial piety, the worst is not having children. For such a simple truth, the Queen believes that the prince should be able to understand her thoughts.
"My son, I will obey my mother's teachings."
The queen had mentioned to the prince before that she wanted to get closer to the princess, but the prince had fooled her every time. Today, she agreed happily.
Yu Wuhen was actually a little secretly happy. Since the Queen Mother was so eager to have her grandson, he was reckless in the past. Li'er was still young. Now that Li'er is sixteen years old, he asked the Queen Mother to marry Li'er again. The Queen Mother
There would be no reason to refuse.
Yu Wuhen was just about to speak, but the Queen preempted him.
"By the way, while we were chatting with mother and son, before I could tell the prince the good news, I have already consecrated Luo Li as Princess Anle. From now on, Anle will be the prince's sister." The queen didn't finish her words.
Yu Wuhen stepped forward hurriedly.
"What? What did the Queen Mother say about Princess Anle?" Yu Wuhen thought about many scenarios of meeting Luo Li again, but never thought that she would become his sister.
Luo Li was originally worried about the Queen's canonization, but now it was a good thing for her, at least she could avoid the Crown Prince's entanglement with her.
"Anle has met His Highness the Crown Prince." Luo Li greeted him respectfully.
"No, Queen Mother, Li'er has not made any achievements, so I thought it was inappropriate to be canonized as princess so hastily." Yu Wuhen wanted to step forward, but the queen threw a teacup at her.
"It's impudent. Now it's hard for me to confer a princess on the prince's face. I canonize Anle as a princess because she has not made any achievements. Otherwise, the one I will confer is Princess Anle."
"Mother, you can't!" Before Yu Wuhen could say anything else, he was dragged off by the imperial guards.
"The prince has no status before the emperor, and the east palace is confined for a month."
East Palace
As soon as Yu Wuhen returned to the East Palace, he was called to the meeting hall by the counselors.
"How could Your Highness be so reckless?" Now is the critical moment of success or failure. How could His Highness the Crown Prince offend Her Majesty the Queen because of his children's affair?
"Gentlemen have always taught me that if I want to wear the crown, I must bear its weight. Only by enduring what ordinary people cannot endure can we achieve great things. But now, even if the situation is achieved, what can I do? If I can't even protect the woman I like,
What's the use of the throne?" Yu Wuhen pushed the tea tray to the ground, and the teapot and cups shattered on the ground.
"Your Highness, Your Highness must not let a small thing lead to a big loss. Now the situation is very good for Your Highness. Your Highness cannot let everyone's efforts go to waste just because of a woman!"
How could Yu Wuhen not know that ten years ago, someone told him that as long as he firmly holds the position of prince, all the things he wants will come true, not just women.
For this reason, he worked hard every day without slacking off, and now he was told that only by ascending to the throne could he protect the people he wanted to protect.
What's ridiculous is that the person he wanted to marry and protect her all his life has now become his sister.
What should I do to satisfy everyone's wishes?
