The combination of hurting Xiaojiao and taking advantage of his new and old hatred almost made Gu Yan almost lose his composure on the spot.
He took a few quick breaths before he stabilized his mood and calmed himself down.
"It turns out that the mother and concubine are so worried because they are worried about Yan'er's accident?"
There was joy in Gu Yan's voice, and he looked at King Jing full of admiration, "Then father... will something happen to Yan'er?"
King Jing looked at him lovingly, and said softly, "If you do something wrong, your father will lose everything, and the end will be miserable. Your mother and concubine are not unreasonable to be worried, but have you forgotten what your father asked you to bring? Your father will not let anyone your mother and concubine care about get into trouble."
Gu Yan's moved voice trembled slightly, "Father, you are so kind..."
But he sneered in his heart, he, Gu Yan, is not someone Shu Concubine cares about.
This old fox!
If he hadn't found out about his life experience early on, he would have foolishly regarded him as such a good person.
The two had different thoughts, and after you came and me tested and exchanged pleasantries, Gu Yan resigned and left.
He sat in the carriage with a sullen face, tapping the carriage wall with his slender fingers, but a thought slowly came to his mind.
At this time, the carriage stopped suddenly.
"What happened?"
Gu Yan's thoughts were suddenly interrupted.
"Princess, the queen is driving in front."
The coachman carefully looked at the queen's carriage who was a few steps ahead, a little surprised.
He didn't expect that the two carriages would collide at the gate of the palace.
It's just that he has already slowed down, reckoning that at the speed of the queen's car, he should not collide with it, but he never thought that the queen's car stopped suddenly.
Not long after, Fu Rong came to the carriage in person, and said softly, "Eldest Princess, the empress is here to invite you."
Gu Yan was startled, and the hands hanging on his legs clenched into fists.
He took a deep breath, then got up and jumped off the carriage, and followed Furong into the Queen's carriage.
The empress leaned on the carriage wall a little wearily, and when she saw him coming in, her eyes finally brightened, she straightened her body with effort, and before Gu Yan could salute, she stretched out her hand to him, "Yan'er, come here, queen mother."
She tried her best to restrain herself without losing her demeanor, but the slightly moist eyes still gave her away. The moment she saw Gu Yan, her heart almost convulsed and her tears collapsed.
Seeing the way she came in from outside the palace, Gu Yan probably knew that the queen already knew the identity of his son, and seeing the sad look of the queen made him heartbroken, but he still had to bear it.
It only takes one more day, tomorrow, he will personally take off his gauze hat at the emperor's grandfather's birthday banquet.
Resisting the sourness and agitation in his heart, he sat down respectfully beside the queen, carefully looked at her face, and said worriedly, "The mother's face doesn't look very good, but has she suffered another heart attack?"
"nothing."
The queen shook her head with a smile, and looked at him fixedly, refusing to move away from his surroundings. Her gaze was as gentle as water, almost drowning Gu Yan.
"Yan'er... is there anything in particular you want?"
Gu Yan smiled shyly, and said with some hesitation, "Yan'er wants someone to love..."
The queen felt sour, but she couldn't hold back the tears anymore, and they slipped down quickly. She grabbed Gu Yan's hand and choked up, "Yan'er, the queen mother loves you in the future, do you know that you are me..."
"Empress Empress..."
Concubine Shu's voice suddenly sounded outside the carriage, although the voice was not loud, it interrupted what the queen was about to say.
Gu Yan took a deep look at the excited queen, and said happily, "Mother, it's the mother concubine who came..."
The queen's eyes suddenly flustered, she held Gu Yan's hand tightly, "Yan'er, I..."
Before the Queen and Gu Yan could show up, Concubine Shu strode forward regardless of her manners, Fu Rong couldn't stop her, her face changed drastically, "Concubine Shu, you are so brave."
The queen clearly felt Gu Yan trembling in fear, and pulled her hand away.
She stared blankly at his frightened movements, and immediately burst into tears of distress.
But for a moment, she felt that her eyes were pierced by the sun, and she couldn't help but raise her hand to cover her eyes.
It was Concubine Shu's armored hand that lifted the curtain of the carriage, allowing the light from outside to shine into the carriage.
Concubine Shu looked at the two people occupying each side of the carriage, looked suspiciously at the silent Gu Yan, then looked at the empress with a moist face and a miserable expression, and asked with an ugly face, "What are you doing?"
