The queen nodded, coaxed for a while, and then handed over the prince who gradually stopped crying to the nurse, and did not let the nurse leave, only let a few people move the prince's bedding cradle to her own bedroom.

The queen wiped her tears with her sleeves, took Qin Yining's hand and walked to the warm couch near the window and sat down.

Qin Yining stood in front of her with the queen's hand in both hands, and said softly: "Niangniang doesn't need to blame herself, today's matter is to give you a wake-up call, just pay attention in the future." ”

The queen shook her head, the golden tassel behind her head swaying with her movements, "Yining, can I call you that?" ”

Qin Yining heard the queen call herself "I", so she smiled and nodded, and said a little relaxed: "Of course you can." ”

The queen snorted, asked Qin Yining to sit down on the embroidery pier in front of her, and said, "I've been thinking about your words these days, and I also know that what you said is right." People say that motherhood is strong, and the reason is clear, but it is really difficult to do it.

"But today's events are tantamount to putting reality in front of me. Those people are not used to me sitting in this position, I admit that I am already old and decrepit, and it is easy to get a brother at this age, and I am afraid that there is no hope for other heirs in the future.

"I am filial to my mother-in-law, friendly to my sister-in-law, and tolerant of my concubines, but they want to hurt my only son." When the queen said this, she burst into tears again, "I retreated again and again, but they refused to let me and my children live in peace!" ”

Qin Yining saw the queen crying sadly, and she couldn't help but have a sour nose, took the towel presented by the palace maid, and presented it to the queen with both hands.

"Niangniang, you know, if you retreat again and again, you can only make the villain more proud." Qin Yining lowered his voice, "Like Concubine Yun, it's actually the easiest to deal with." She does things impulsively and doesn't go with her head. But the Tatar princess Tana is coming, and there will be a general election in the New Year, and there will be more and more young and beautiful concubines in the palace in the future, with more and more people of all kinds of temperament and all backgrounds. Niangniang also has to be strong, find a way to protect herself, and protect the prince. ”

The queen nodded, knowing that Qin Yining's words were from the bottom of her heart, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "You're right." In the future, I have to be strong, and I have to plan for my children. I just think...... Tired and disheartened. ”

"Niangniang, as women, although we want to teach our husbands and children, we can't put everything on this, before we pay for our husbands and children, we can't forget that we are individuals. You have to take care of yourself first, let yourself live well, and then you have the energy to do other things, don't you say? ”

It was the first time the queen had heard such a statement.

What she has seen from her own background are those women who are dependent on men for survival, who have sacrificed their lives for their husbands and children, and who will be ruthlessly abandoned if they commit seven crimes. Even if you don't commit seven outs, but the newlywed is only fresh for a year or two, and the husband has to take a concubine and use the room, if you don't allow it, it will be jealousy.

No one ever told her that she was first and foremost a person before she circled around her husband and children.

She felt that this statement was novel, but she also felt enlightened.

The woman in front of her is not yet in her twenties, but she is so smart and witty, she has a scheming and a city, but she is very kind.

The queen actually knows about the situation in the court, and she also knows that the saint is afraid of the, and it stands to reason that it is difficult for the two of them to have a heart-to-heart.

However, Qin Yining didn't care about this, she just talked about things, because she couldn't see her child suffering, so she didn't care about the grievances of the previous generation, and she didn't care if she offended Concubine Yun and the Queen Mother, and when others didn't react, or others didn't dare to stop her, she reached out to her child.

It was hard for the queen to imagine what would become of her child's face if Qin Yining didn't care about this matter today, and if such a young child was injured like that, would she be infected with a fever and leave a scar.

In fact, Qin Yining can stand by and watch, and he won't get into trouble. But she did.

The queen was full of emotion in her heart, putting aside those grievances between men, from her point of view, she admired and loved Qin Yining very much.

"You're right." The queen wiped away her tears and her gaze became firm, "Thank you." in every sense of the word. ”

"Niangniang doesn't have to be like this, this is what a courtier should do, whether out of loyalty or out of human nature."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and seemed to be closer emotionally.

The queen is more than ten years older than Qin Yining, but she has learned a lot from Qin Yining, and she can't help but discuss with her: "Escort Concubine Yun to the Zongren Mansion today, I'm afraid the Queen Mother won't stop when she gets the news." ”

Qin Yining nodded, "Yes." Niangniang should know that even if Concubine Yun is escorted to the Zongren Mansion, the final result is that this person will be released soon. ”

After all, the Queen Mother wants to save face, and supporting Concubine Yun was originally to say goodbye to the queen, but now that such an unbelievable thing has happened, of course the Queen Mother must protect it, otherwise the next Concubine Yun will not be tight, in case it involves the Queen Mother and the family, wouldn't it be shameless?

When the queen heard this, she sighed silently.

Wouldn't her mother-in-law, who had been with her for so many years, not understand? When the Queen Mother lets Concubine Yun out, I'm afraid she will bite her back, saying that she deliberately framed her and was ashamed to be the queen.

The queen had just mentioned a little bit of self-motivation, and when she thought of the queen mother, she was tired again, and she was unprecedentedly tired.

What could she do?

As the queen, she doesn't even have the right to manage the harem, and the queen mother has the final say. Even if she catches someone framing her child, her punishment of that person will lead to bad consequences.

It's really tiring.

The queen asked tiredly, "In your opinion, how should this matter be good?" ”

Qin Yining thought for a moment and said with a smile: "The result of this matter, in fact, the queen mother should have been able to guess it when she ordered Concubine Yun to be imprisoned in the Zongren Mansion. As a mother, it is right to stand up for Her Highness. So whatever the consequences, just deal with it. Concubine Yun will definitely be protected by the Queen Mother, as far as you are concerned, as long as Concubine Yun is willing to reflect, this matter can affect a few people in the inner palace, and let them know your position, it will be a good result. ”

The queen lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment, and said, "Later, you will accompany the palace, let's take Mama Gong and go to the queen mother's palace?" ”

Qin Yining said, "The queen is witty. ”

At least doing this will allow the queen to establish a bright and upright image in Li Qitian's mind, which is equivalent to stopping the loss in time, no matter how this matter should be done first, the result will not be so bad that people lose their lives, it is already very good. ”

"Where is the Wit of the Honmiya." The queen stood up and regained her dignified elegance as a queen, "It's you who are willing to help." Thank you very much. ”

Qin Yining hurriedly got up and saluted, not daring to say anything.

The two dressed neatly and talked a few words with Mama Gong.

Mama Gong is a mama who teaches the rules, and she is not exclusive to which palace, she has already retired from the palace and was invited back by the decree of the saint, her identity is transcendent, and naturally there is no problem of favoritism. The queen talked gently and in detail, and Mama Gong naturally nodded for the lovely child.

The group soon arrived at Ci'an Palace.

When the palace people returned, Li Helan was sitting next to the queen mother and eating melon seeds.

As soon as she heard the queen's request to see her, the queen mother was displeased and threw half of the melon seeds in her hand on the table, and there was a loud noise.

"What is she here to do at this hour. Who is here? ”

"Back to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother came with Prince Zhongshun and Princess Zhongshun."

As soon as Li Helan heard Qin Yining now, her still swollen toes reflexively hurt.

"That slut is coming together, it's not going to be a good thing! Queen Mother, the last time she killed her daughter's toenails were split, you must avenge your daughter. ”

The Queen Mother snorted: "It's not that you're stupid?" Who let you kick people yourself. Stupid, with a head on his neck, is it just for gasping? ”

The queen mother waved her hand when she reprimanded Li Helan, and the palace people immediately went outside to invite the queen in.

Li Helan pursed her lips, sat up straight, and then wiped her mouth with a handkerchief.

The queen brought Qin Yining in and immediately made a big salute.

"The concubine asks the queen mother for peace."

"The courtiers greet the Queen Mother. Greetings to the eldest princess. ”

"Get up." The Queen Mother waved her hand and motioned for the two of them to get up, and when she saw Mama Gong behind the crowd out of the corner of her eye, the Queen Mother raised her eyebrows suspiciously, "What's the matter, is there something wrong with this son coming to the palace?" ”

The queen said, "Yes." Concubine Yun was learning the rules in the palace of the concubine, and when she was resting in the middle, the concubine ordered the nurse to hug Brother Hao'er, Concubine Yun actually intended to scratch Brother Hao'er's face, and the concubine had ordered Concubine Yun to be escorted to the Zongren Mansion. ”

The Queen Mother was stunned: "What about Brother Hao?" How's it going? ”

Seeing that the queen mother cared about her grandson first, the queen secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Niangniang, don't worry, fortunately, the princess of Zhongshun found out in time and caught Concubine Yun on the spot, so Brother Hao was safe and sound, but he was frightened and kept crying." ”

When the Queen Mother heard this, she calmed down a little.

"How brainless is Concubine Yun, so she will directly go to the face of the flower prince in front of so many people? Not even a fool can do such a thing. The Queen Mother looked at the queen suspiciously, "You are so anxious to lock up Concubine Yun, is there another hidden secret, huh?" ”

The queen's heart, which had just been slightly relieved, was lifted up again by the queen mother's words.

She suddenly had a thought in her heart, "That's really the case", Qin Yining was right, and the consequences really began to favor Concubine Yun.

The queen pursed her lips, "Could it be that the queen mother suspects that the concubine is slandering Concubine Yun by this matter?" Seeing so many eyes, if the Queen Mother doesn't believe it, she can go to inquire one by one, besides, the concubine and the Queen Mother's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have been for so many years, the Queen Mother should also know the nature of the concubine. If Concubine Yun didn't really hurt the prince, how could the concubine say that? ”

The Queen Mother hesitated a little. Although this daughter-in-law is not likable and has a lump of wood, as she said, she is an upright person.

Could it really be that Concubine Yun did it? To do such a stupid thing, in fact, Concubine Yun is really possible.

The Queen Mother was resentful in her heart, but she helped Concubine Yun up so easily, this woman was born well and was favored by the saints, how could she give up easily?
