Liu Yan didn't listen anymore, she took Guiyuan's hand and went to the side hall, and the palace people served refreshments.

Gui Yuan asked, "I came in from outside just now, should I change the princess's shoes and socks?" ”

Liu Yan cocked the toes of his shoes to take a look: "There is no need to change it if it is not raining." ”

Just now I heard that Mrs. Xiao was coming, and Liu Yan knew that Xiao's life was saved.

Just like Li Shanggong said, for the sake of those who died in the Xiao family, for the sake of Mrs. Xiao's husband and son who had been widowed for many years, the father would leave the Xiao family with his life.

Liu Yan didn't care about how Xiao lived the rest of his life.

What she cares about is, what about the third brother? What about the third brother? The queen mother brought the Xiao family into the palace like this, what happened to the third brother, it should have been news in the next two days.

I hope Lu Yi can persuade him.

This job is not easy to do, at least Liu Yan himself does not have this ability. It was useless to persuade her, she felt that the words she said were all painless clichés, useless at all.

Lu Yi is always much stronger than her.

Liu Yan thought that Mrs. Xiao would plead for her daughter, but she didn't expect that after she drank a cup of tea, she felt that it was only a quarter of an hour's work, so Yingluo came over and said, "Princess, Niangniang asked you to come over and talk." ”

Seeing the question on Liu Yan's face, Yingluo explained: "Old Madam Xiao has already quit the palace. ”

"So fast?" Liu Yan said: "Didn't she intercede for her daughter? ”

Yingluo shook her head slowly, she was also very surprised.

"No, Old Madam Xiao is just imploring Niangniang to protect the reputation of the Xiao family and not to let others know what the Xiao family has done. Of course, don't let Liu Ao know about the ugly things his mother did. ”

Liu Yan was stunned for a moment and sighed for the old lady.

This old lady is really not easy.

Her husband and son died early, she supported the family business alone, raised her daughter, originally Xiao married the third prince and gave birth to a son, the glory and wealth of this life are inexhaustible, and Mrs. Xiao can rest assured. But I didn't expect Xiao Shi to do such a thing regardless of it, so that this old woman who was going to be strong all her life was ashamed because of her daughter.

"Then, what does the Queen Mother plan to do with the Xiao family?"

Yingluo smiled: "The slave doesn't dare to speculate, the princess should go and ask the mother herself." ”

Liu Yan greeted Empress Cao, of course the Xiao family was no longer in the palace.

Empress Cao asked her to sit down beside her and asked, "Is it raining and coming over?" Is it cool outside? Last night was windy and thundering, did you sleep well? ”

Liu Yan said honestly: "I didn't sleep much in the first half of the night, but I vaguely heard the wind in the second half of the night, but I didn't hear the thunder." Is the queen mother sleeping well? ”

"I don't sleep very well, and when the wind blows, your father gets up, saying that he can't sleep, so he just gets up and folds it. I woke up, sat with him and talked for a while, and then took a nap when it was almost dawn. ”

"Has the queen mother's breakfast been served?"

"Got a bowl of soup." Empress Cao touched her head: "Thanks to you for telling me in time, this matter was dealt with earlier, and it will be a big trouble to delay it later." ”

Liu Yan was a little puzzled, this question had been put aside in her heart for a while.

"Queen Mother, the medicine that Xiao Shi caught, why did Imperial Doctor Zhao say that it had no effect? Also, did Xiao take the medicine? ”

"Well, Xiao's medicine, eighty percent of the people who dispensed the medicine felt that this matter was inappropriate, and they were afraid that they would really get into trouble if they really gave the medicine, so although the medicine was given, they did some tricks and feet, and they grabbed some ineffective medicinal materials for her, Xiao Shi grabbed a pair of medicines, which was to be taken twice, and she took it once that night, but it didn't work, and yesterday's one didn't have time to take it, and even the people with the medicine were guarded."

…… The ineffectiveness of this medicine may have something to do with Lu Yi.

Liu Yan is so sure, since Lu Yi knows that the people from the Three Princes' Mansion are going to catch this medicine, he will definitely not just watch and do nothing.

"What does the Queen Mother plan to do with the Xiao family?"

Empress Cao asked Liu Yan rhetorically: "If this matter is handed over to you, what are you going to do?" ”

Liu Yan thought about it seriously: "I definitely can't let her be the third brother's wife anymore, the third brother should marry a better woman who is good to him." ”

Empress Cao nodded: "Your idea is not wrong - but your father has already said this matter, and it will be left to your third brother to deal with by himself." ”

"Huh?" Liu Yan was surprised: "Give it to the third brother?" ”

Who doesn't know the temperament of the third prince? But whatever he doesn't like and makes him unhappy, he always does it directly.

If he knew that Xiao had cuckolded himself and even conceived a human seed, he would not have killed anyone!

But wouldn't that make things bigger?

"After all, this is your third brother's business, and the Xiao family is also his wife, how to deal with this matter, do we want to go past your third brother and do it directly?"

Belch...... Of course, what the queen mother said also made sense.

No matter what is done about this matter, it is impossible to bypass the third brother, he will know sooner or later.

"Well," Liu Yan was in a low mood, hanging his head listlessly: "The third brother must be very angry." ”

It will be sad.

Even if he won't show it, Liu Yan feels that the third brother will definitely be sad.

"Then, when is the queen mother going to tell the third brother about this?"

"How long can this matter be hidden, your third brother will probably enter the palace today."

Yingluo took a list and came over to ask Empress Cao to take a look.

Empress Cao glanced at it and said, "Let's prepare for this first." ”

Liu Yan glanced at it, it seemed to be a list of funeral matters, and Empress Cao would issue a lot of rewards every month, both red and white. Sometimes everyone gathers together to do happy events, sometimes the weather is bad, and white things are one after another.

Is this someone who has passed away again? But she hadn't heard of any clan relatives or important ministers of the court who had done white things at home recently.

When Liu Yan came out of the Yilan Palace, she suddenly understood.

This funeral may not have been done yet, but maybe today, tomorrow, or it won't be long before it happens.

It rained all day.

When it was almost dark, Doutang hurried to report that the third prince had entered the palace, but he didn't go to Yilan Palace, he went to the emperor.

"Father is still in the Qinzheng Palace, right?"

The bean soup nodded.

Liu Yan had already stood up, but now he sat down again.

If the third brother is going to the queen mother, then Liu Yan will definitely go over, how to say it...... Even if it doesn't hurt or itch if she is relieved, she wants to accompany the third brother more, at least so that he can not be so uncomfortable.

But the third brother went to the Qinzheng Palace, and Liu Yan was inconvenient to go over.

I don't know what my father and the third brother will say?

What decision will the third brother make? Will he be furious and hack Xiao and the adulterer to death with one sword?

"Princess, do you want to inquire again?"

"Don't go yet." It is taboo to go to the Qinzheng Palace to inquire about the news, even if Liu Yan is favored, she doesn't want to make this exception.
