The gentle tone of the child, for some reason, actually warmed Chu Duan's heart.

Chu Duan looked at the woman in front of him blankly, and didn't say anything, and he didn't know who the "Yu'er" in the woman's mouth was.

After the air was quiet for a while, Chu Duan realized a little later, the Yu'er in her mouth was the former crown prince that the emperor was looking for...... Qi Yu?

Chu Duan looked at the woman, his thin lips slightly open, and he looked like he wanted to speak and stopped.

"Yu'er, I'm the queen mother......" The woman slowly walked towards Chu Duan, and then slowly sat down on a chair not far from him.

I don't know if it was Chu Duan's illusion or the truth, at this moment, he actually saw a glimmer of crystal in the woman's eyes.

It's tears.

Chu Duan looked at her, and his heart couldn't help but be followed by a softness - an indescribable emotion, which made Chu Duan's eyes gradually complicated.

Queen mother......

According to this, the person in front of him is the mother of the prince of the former dynasty - the queen of the former dynasty?

Chu Dui opened his mouth slightly, he wanted to say something, but when the words reached his throat, it seemed to be blocked.

After a while, the queen's eyes slowly dimmed, and then, a bitter and helpless smile appeared on her face: "It's also - I died shortly after giving birth to you, how can you recognize me?"

As she spoke, the queen lowered her gaze to Chu Duan's body, and the veined eyes seemed to be able to touch the softest part of Chu Duan's heart.

That place was a place that Chu Duan had never touched, and it was also what Chu Duan lacked the most. He has never felt the feeling of being loved by his dearest, and he has never experienced the feeling of heart-to-heart connection when he meets his dearest.

He thought that he would never experience this feeling in his life, but he didn't want to experience such a long-lost feeling in this deep palace.

But even so, there is a separation between yin and yang......

Chu Duan looked at the queen quietly, at this moment, he was not as eager to deny his identity as before, he didn't say anything, as if he acquiesced.

Only Chu Duan knew in his heart that everything before was just that he was pretending to be stupid, but this time, he didn't want to pretend anymore.

He had not previously acknowledged his identity, nor did he dare to admit it—he was afraid of causing him unnecessary trouble, perhaps life-threatening trouble.

But this time, it was the last time Chu Duan wanted to deny it.

"Queen Mother, ......?" Finally, Chu Duan whispered to the woman in front of him.

The voice was slightly hoarse, with a hint of temptation, cautious, as if he was afraid of saying the wrong thing.

After that sound fell, a long-lost smile appeared on the queen's face—a smile of relief, as if she had waited so long to finally hear this call.

"I didn't expect it...... You're finally back......" The queen said as she slowly raised her hand towards Chu Dui, and tentatively reached towards Chu Dui.

Little by little, the pale hand went towards Chu Dui's cheek, but at the moment when she was about to touch Chu Dui's cheek, she paused.

Her fingertips trembled slightly, and she hesitated for a moment before she reluctantly put down her hand, as if she was afraid that she would hurt Chu Duan.

"How is Yu'er doing now?" the queen looked at Chu Duan, her eyes full of love.

"Okay. Chu Duan said indifferently, with a slight smile on his face.

"Where have you been all these years?Have you suffered anything?" The queen looked at Chu Duan with concern, she had missed a lot after being separated for so long.

"Nangu Mountain—" Chu Duan responded.

Chu Duan had also thought about the day when he recognized his parents, but he never thought that it would be this one.

"Nangushan...... It's a nice place indeed. The queen said with a relieved smile on her face: "The queen mother passed away not long after giving birth to you, and I didn't know that so many things would happen, thanks to Lord Qi Ze, who brought you up ......"

Urusawa-sama?

After these four words fell into Chu Duan's ears, they actually made Chu Duan's heart tremble, I don't know if it was Chu Duan's illusion or what, he always felt that this title had a deep meaning.

Chu Dui opened his mouth slightly, and was about to ask the queen why she was called like this, when there was a knock on the door.

Before Chu Duan could say anything, the door was gently pushed open, and in the next second, a white dress followed into Chu Dui's eyes.

It just so happened to be Chu Qize.

"Chu Duan, I'm ......" Chu Qize was just about to continue, when he saw the queen sitting next to Chu Duan.

The moment he saw the queen, Chu Qize's voice also stopped, and after staring at her for a while, he seemed to recognize her.

Chu Qi Ze was just about to salute the queen, but he didn't want to be preempted by her: "Lord Qi Ze-"

Chu Qize saw that the queen had the intention of leaving her seat, so she immediately stretched out her hand to support the queen: "The queen doesn't have to make this big gift......

After finishing speaking, the queen raised her eyes suspiciously, and Chu Duan naturally saw this scene in her eyes, as if with the current identities of the two of them, this should be done.

"Thank you, Lord Qi Ze, for ...... over the years," the queen mother said this, and couldn't help but pause: "Take care of my son." ”

As she spoke, the queen moved her gaze to Chu Duan's body again, she hadn't seen her for many years, and he was no longer called Qi Yu......

Now his name is Chu Duan.

Thinking about it, the queen's face showed a shallow and relieved smile again - this is also good, now, her son followed Chu Qize and grew up in Nangu Mountain, away from the hustle and bustle of mortal dust, away from the deceit in the harem.

If he hadn't left this palace back then, his life would have been completely different from what he is now, but in her eyes, no matter how different it was, it would have been thousands of times better than in this palace - this Bauhinia City was like a huge cage, even though glory and wealth were all in one, but there was no freedom, and in addition, there were so many undercurrents......

"Queen Mother-" After the air was silent for a moment, Chu Qize's voice sounded again, pulling the queen's thoughts back.

The queen's gaze fell on Chu Qize's body again, and a layer of doubt also climbed into her eyes.

"Weichen still has some things to explain to Chu Duan......" Chu Qize said implicitly.

After finishing speaking, the queen understood the meaning of Chu Qize's words.

"Okay, then I won't bother you. After saying that, the queen slowly stood up, turned around, and then gradually disappeared in front of Chu Duan and Chu Qize.
