Only then did Mu Yexiao remember that he seemed to have not asked Mu Yexing what was wrong. When he saw Mu Yexing again this time, Mu Yexiao felt very strange in his heart.
The two people looked at each other and smiled, as if they had a telepathic connection. Mu Yexiao was very sure that Mu Yexing had no ill intentions towards him, and he had a vague sense of whereabouts.
The tacit understanding between him and Mu Yexing was very strong. Xiao Man had already come to Qian Jiujiu and whispered to Qian Jiujiu: "Sister, do you really not want to find a chance to cure the poison in the prince's body? "
Qian Jiujiu looked at Xiaoman strangely: "Do you want to come back? Or is there something abnormal about the poison in the prince's body?"
Xiaoman frowned: "There is something abnormal, but I can't tell. I feel like I need to change the prescription. It seems that the effect is not as good as before."
While talking, Xiao Man also looked at the Queen and Concubine Qing who were talking together, and lowered his voice again: "Sister, do you feel that something is wrong with Concubine Qing today?"
"Look at that look in his eyes. He looks at my brother-in-law from time to time. That look is very complicated. It's definitely not yearning."
Qian Jiujiu couldn't see what Xiao Mandu could see, but she didn't know what to say. I'm afraid Concubine Qing was struggling with Mu Yexiao's life experience now.
Now that Mu Yexing has become the prince, if Mu Yexiao's life experience can be exposed, then the two are brothers and will definitely get along better.
In general, the announcement of Mu Yexiao's life experience will be of great benefit to Mu Yexiao, but it will not be very good for Concubine Qing.
Moreover, there is the Qian Kingdom watching eagerly beside them. Although the people of the Qian Kingdom have been very quiet in the past two days, but now that Mu Yexiao is back, I am afraid that the Qian Kingdom people will not be quiet anymore.
Just as Qian Jiujiu was thinking this, he heard news from the palace people outside, saying that an envoy from the Kingdom of Qian had entered the palace to ask for an audience. This sound attracted the attention of everyone in the hall.
"Your Majesty, the envoy from the Kingdom of Qian is here to see you."
The emperor was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses. Then he glanced at Mu Yexiao and understood in his heart that the people from Qian Kingdom were probably coming back for Mu Yexiao.
Thinking about Concubine Qing's identity, the emperor felt helpless and glanced at Concubine Qing: "Since it is an envoy asking for a meeting, do you want to go and see her together?"
Sooner or later, they have to face things. In fact, the people of Qian Kingdom don't understand that as long as Mu Yexiao has the blood of Qian Kingdom, there will be no difference from the previous Mu Yesheng.
What's more, the emperor knew very well that Mu Yexiao did not have the blood of Qianguo at all. Hearing the emperor's invitation, Mu Yexiao was not surprised at all. After all, Qian Jiujiu had gone there this morning.
He has already said everything that needs to be said, so although Mu Yexiao has just come back, he is not completely ignorant. It's just that the emperor, queen and others don't know.
Mu Yexiao looked at the emperor and said, "Since we are the envoys of the Qian Kingdom and I have never seen my son and I, let's go over and have a look together. What do you think of Jiu'er?"
Qian Jiujiu just smiled: "Of course I'll go if there's something fun."
When everyone heard this, their mouths twitched, and then they looked at the emperor and expressed their intention to go with them. In fact, Concubine Qing did not want to go.
Just thinking about the purpose of the Qian people coming to the palace, thinking that she would have to go there later anyway, so there was no need to bother asking someone to invite her, so she went with her.
When the queen arrived, she glanced at the two children: "You all go and watch the excitement. I'll stay and take care of the children. I haven't seen the two children for a long time, and I miss them very much."
The emperor hummed: "Since that's the case, fine, let's go there first."
So the emperor walked towards the main hall with Concubine Qing and Crown Prince Mu Yexiao. After entering, he saw King Ming of Qian Kingdom and Princess Qingling standing there.
Seeing the emperor and others coming in, he saluted: "I have met the Emperor Zhou, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."
The emperor sat on the dragon chair and looked at Prince Ming below: "Prince Ming, what's the hurry for you to enter the palace now?"
Prince Ming looked at the emperor with a serious look on his face: "The little king is here to ask, Your Majesty, the Emperor of Zhou, has the emperor completed the affairs entrusted to you by our country?"
The emperor frowned: "This sea of people is huge. Finding someone is as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack. It can be done in such a short time."
The words were so arrogant, but the emperor knew that Concubine Qing's identity would definitely not be preserved today. After all, people from the Qian Kingdom would not make uncertain accounts.
The most important thing is that this thing is true.
Prince Ming also frowned: "Your Majesty, actually before coming here, the royal family of our Kingdom of Qian had already received the exact news that the little king's sister, Princess Ziqing, is actually the Concubine Qing of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
Mu Yexiao looked at Concubine Qing, but Concubine Qing sighed and wanted to say something, but she never came forward. The emperor glanced at Prince Ming displeased.
"Did Prince Ming really mean what he said? When Concubine Qing entered the palace, her identity was clear. How could Xiao Qing, the daughter of the Xiao family of Haozhou, be the princess of your Qian Kingdom?"
"Besides, how could the princess of your Qian Kingdom become the daughter of the Haozhou Xiao family?"
The Haozhou Xiao family was named after Concubine Qing entered the palace. Before Concubine Qing was satisfied and entered the palace, the Xiao family was just a local farmer.
Even now, decades later, when talking about the Haozhou Xiao family, it can only be said that the Xiao family was lucky enough to have a noble person who was able to achieve success all the way.
However, he is not a high-ranking official, but for Concubine Qing's sake, everything he does is extremely smooth. Just the facts, what is going on.
That is to say, the Xiao family knew about it. When King Ming heard the emperor's words, he just smiled and replied: "The emperor doesn't know about this. The Xiao family originally had no daughters."
"It's just because my sister was in trouble and was injured while escaping. She was rescued by the Xiao family. The Xiao family was poor at the time and originally wanted to sell my sister."
"It turns out that if you send a beautiful girl to the palace that year, you can get more rewards, so you sent the younger sister to the beautiful girl under the pseudonym Xiao Qing. You can ask Concubine Qing about this."
Speaking of Concubine Qing's name, this matter was considered enlightened, but Concubine Qing looked at Prince Ming with a blank expression: "Is this Prince Ming? I really don't know what you are talking about."
"Since I can remember, I have been staying in the Xiao family. I remember that I am the daughter of the Xiao family."
The corner of Prince Ming's mouth twitched, but a fierce look flashed in his eyes. Looking at Concubine Qing in front of him, it was clear that Concubine Qing was pretending to have amnesia and did not want to admit her identity.
It's just about your identity, can you escape? Prince Ming changed his expression and looked at Concubine Qing with a sad expression: "Little sister, it's useless for me to be an elder brother."
"You were injured and lost your memory. You don't even remember your brother. You had the best relationship with your brother when you were a child. My father and mother also miss you the most."
After saying that, King Ming sighed: "That's right. You have forgotten it. How can you remember it? But you said you are the daughter of the Xiao family. This is impossible."
"I have brought people from the Xiao family. You can ask yourself if the Xiao family has deceived you. The people of the Xiao family have been tied to the palace gate by me."
"Waiting to give up."
This move was really cruel. Concubine Qing's expression changed and she stood up: "What did you do to my parents?"
In fact, Concubine Qing has always been very grateful to the Xiao family. After she ran away from home, she met the emperor who was on patrol in disguise, and the emperor was hunted down.
She rescued the emperor, and during the days when the two were fleeing together, they lived and died together, and fell in love. Later, Concubine Qing learned the emperor's identity.
She resolutely chose to believe in the friendship between them, gave up her identity as the princess of Qian Kingdom, plotted against the Xiao family, and successfully became a show girl.
Sure enough, the emperor's feelings towards her have not changed. After she entered the palace, it was said that the emperor took a fancy to her and loved her very much. He was even the only one in the sixth palace who almost ruined the entire palace for her.
It was just that the situation at that time did not allow the emperor to do this, and the emperor was even threatened by the Liu family, either to remove Concubine Qing or to replace Concubine Xian at that time.
That is to say, Mu Yesheng's mother-in-law became the queen. The emperor was so angry that he directly appointed the current queen as the queen in order to protect Concubine Qing.
Concubine Qing was also ignored for a period of time. It was not until she became pregnant that she was promoted to concubine. She was always against Concubine Xian. Everyone in the palace except Concubine Xian.
No one dared to go against Qing Gui. That is to say, the emperor's behavior made many ministers think that the emperor only regarded Concubine Qing Gui as a pawn.
This is how to ensure that Concubine Qing survives. Therefore, in these years, Concubine Qing has not allowed anyone from the Xiao family to serve as an official, but she has also given benefits, so she should treat it as thanks to them.
Unexpectedly, she would still be implicated because of her, so Concubine Qing naturally felt uncomfortable, and her face looked very ugly as she glared at Prince Ming.
Prince Ming frowned, but he did not expect that Concubine Qing still had some sincerity towards the Xiao family. Before she could speak, the emperor had already spoken.
"Don't worry, my beloved. Someone is coming. Go outside the palace and invite people from the Xiao family into the palace."
The emperor meant "please". The guards who went forward understood immediately and quickly turned around and went out. Soon the Xiao family members were brought to the main hall.
Concubine Qing looked at the pale faces of several people, and their expressions were even more ugly. She didn't even call her Prince Ming, but directly called out their names: "He Lu Qingqi, what did you do to my parents?"
Seeing Mrs. Xiao getting so old and looking so pale, Concubine Qing felt a little better. Mrs. Xiao and the Xiao family now understand.
Concubine Qing's identity must have been exposed, and she was very frightened. Now seeing Concubine Qing protecting them like this, she finally felt better.
It was Mr. Xiao who was seriously ill and had no choice but to take advantage of Concubine Qing and send Concubine Qing to the palace.
