Qi Ran was protecting the night boat openly, and everyone present could see that they were suddenly a little surprised.

What kind of characters are they, His Royal Highness? That is ruthless and cold-blooded, how have you ever seen him help someone to speak? Now that he has opened his mouth for a woman, he thinks that he is really concerned, which can make Yin Huaixue and Nai Wan angry enough.

The queen saw that the atmosphere was not right, and said with a smile: "So that's the case, speaking of which, when Qi Ran was injured, he also invited a lot of pharmacists to heal, but none of them came up with a way, everyone thought that Qi Ran would never get better, but he didn't expect to be cured by a little girl, it was really surprising, and it could be seen that Yezhou was not an ordinary pharmacist." ”

"The queen mother's reputation is overblown, his leg has already improved when I treat Qi Ran, I just bumped into a good time, plus my soul crystal is inherited from my mother, this credit is not only mine. ”

"You are modest, this palace likes to talk to you, and Yesheng knows how to raise his sister. ”

The queen's attitude is gentle, and she really has the best demeanor, and it is not good for others not to give face to the queen when they see it, so they are all safe.

Yezhou sat beside Qi Ran, since the two of them came to the Imperial Garden, the people around them had quieted down, and they would secretly look at the two of them from time to time, fortunately, they had long been immune to this kind of gaze, otherwise they would really be unbearable.

"This queen looks very gentle and generous, who is Yin Huaixue's temperament?" Ye Zhou whispered.

Qi Ran chuckled: "You should be glad that Yin Huaixue is only annoying on the surface, if she learns such a way as the queen, it will be even more difficult to deal with." ”

"What do you mean?"

Qi Ran smiled and said nothing, and then the queen spoke again.

"Speaking of which, it seems that only the Ye family has given birth to a daughter among the four major families, but it is expensive, and the others have either inherited the family property, or have been rewarded by His Majesty, only Yezhou has never been sealed, which is really a bit of a disadvantage, since you entered the palace today, then the palace will be in charge, let Your Majesty make you a princess?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned and looked at the queen in unison.

Yezhou was also very puzzled, even if he wanted to be sealed, at most he would be the identity of a county lord, which was directly named a princess, which was not polite at all.

"Queen Mother, how can the princess say that it will be sealed! If this girl is going to become a princess, won't she be on an equal footing with me?" Yin Huaixue first expressed her dissatisfaction.

"Huaixue, you are the princess born in this palace, you should be generous and have the appearance of a princess, how can you be so petty and care about these things?"

"Queen Mother!"

"Okay, this matter has already been discussed with your father and emperor, you can't be willful!"

It was rare for the queen to show a stern look, and even if Yin Huaixue was dissatisfied, it was not good to spill it in public, so she had to swallow this breath viciously, planning to go back and oppose it to her father again.

However, at this time, Qi Ran's words directly interrupted her thoughts.

"The queen is very loving, and the minister thanked Xiaozhou for it, but the princess is noble, Xiaozhou can't afford it, and asks the queen to take back her life. ”

The queen frowned when she heard this: "Qi Ran, you and Yezhou are not married yet, I'm afraid you can't manage too many things, right?"

"The minister and Xiaozhou are indeed not married, but as a fiancé, they should be considered for her, Xiaozhou is the first time to enter the palace, and many rules are not known, so the minister should naturally take care of it more. ”

"Even so, you don't have the right to refuse a reward on behalf of Nightboat. ”

"What Niangniang said is very true, then listen to Xiaozhou's own wishes. Saying that, Qi Ran looked at the night boat beside him.

Yezhou's face was calm, but she was already full of doubts in her heart, she didn't understand why the queen suddenly rewarded her, and she didn't understand why Qi Ran was so eager to refuse for her.

However, Yezhou still trusted Qi Ran, got up and saluted, and said: "Thank you for the reward, the little girl has no talent and no virtue, and she has no great achievements, so she really can't stand the identity of the princess." ”

The queen's face sank: "Are you going to disobey the reward of the palace and Your Majesty? ”

"The queen mother forgives her sins, the little girl's parents are dead, and there is only one brother left in the family, if I am named a princess, then I will no longer be a member of the Ye family, the little girl is brought up by her brother, how can she abandon her brother because of fame and fortune, and become that unkind and unrighteous person? ”

Yezhou's answer directly blocked the queen's way, and the queen's face was even more ugly.

"That's it, let's talk about this later, and Rong Bengong will discuss it with His Majesty again. ”

"Queen Xie is considerate. ”

After speaking, Yezhou sat back, and the surroundings returned to normal, Yezhou looked at Qi Ran beside him, and asked in a low voice: "Why did the queen suddenly want to crown me as a princess? Such an unruly thing is not what a mother of a country should do." ”

Of course, the mother of a country will not make such a will easily, obviously she is forced to be in a hurry, and she can't find a better way to deal with it. ”

"What does that mean?"

Qi Ran explained: "You have been to the Bafang Realm, and you should also know that the stability of the Tiandu Border in addition to the various armies mainly depends on the control of the Bafang City Lord, although on the surface, the status of the Bafang City Lord is much lower than that of Tiandu, but for their loyalty and stability, the royal family often uses some methods to deepen the relationship with the Bafang. ”

Yezhou was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted: "You mean harmony?"

Qi Ran nodded: "It should be regarded as a marriage, in order to make the Bafang City Lord obedient, the royal family will select a suitable princess to marry to the Bafang, of course, a noble princess like Yin Huaixue will not be reduced to marriage, but other princesses who are not favored and have no status are different, if you are crowned a princess, Your Majesty can marry you off for the reason of maintaining the stability of the heavenly capital, there are so many royal princesses, no minister will oppose it because of a princess with a foreign surname, and even I can't fight against Youyoukou at that time." ”

The queen's abacus is very beautiful, once Yezhou becomes a princess, it will not be under the control of the Ye family, everything about her is royal, His Majesty can marry her to whoever he wants, and their purpose is obvious, it is to prevent Yezhou from becoming Qi Ran's wife, so they came up with such a method.

This time they entered the palace probably for this purpose, but they ignored that Qi Ran was also there, Qi Ran was not one of those ordinary people who was casually fooled, how could they not see what they had in mind?

Yezhou understood and immediately frowned.

I really didn't expect that she had just come over and others had already prepared a pit for her, if she was really a person in the palace, she had to guard against it.

"Speaking of which, the royal family doesn't want me to marry you so much, but they have come up with a better candidate?" asked Yezhou.
