Qingyan sat in the carriage, and Xuanyuan Yuzhen told her all about Qilian Yuran.

The main reason is probably that in the five years after Qi Lian Qingyan's death, Qi Lian Yuran has been having nightmares, and this is related to Qi Lian Qingyan.

In the dream, Qilian Qingyan kept complaining about why Qilian Yuran, her aunt, didn't save her.

And this has become a worry for Qi Lian Yu Ran. She has always lived with guilt and obsession with Qi Lian Yu Ran.

This is also the reason why Qilian Yuran has not seen Emperor Hongjia for five years.

Five years ago, when Qilian Yuran learned about the death of Qilian Qingyan, he knelt in the Yangxin Hall of Emperor Hongjia and begged Emperor Hongjia to send troops to attack Nanchen Kingdom.

That was because Donghe Kingdom's military strength was far inferior to that of Nanchen Kingdom, so Emperor Hongjia did not agree to Qilian Yuran's request. After that, although Qilian Yuran was named the imperial concubine by the Jin Dynasty, he never saw Emperor Hongjia again.

It has even reached a point where he is unwilling to take a step out of the palace gate. Only when Xuanyuan Yuzhen and Xuanyuan Yukai are there, Qilian Yuran is willing to talk to them.

Only Emperor Hongjia, no matter how hard he begged her, she was unwilling to see him.

Qingyan didn't know how to digest these contents. It was good for Qilian Yuran to have obsessions, but it was her who was ultimately hurt by this obsession.

She has always lived with guilt towards Qilian Qingyan, but in fact she has never blamed Qilian Yuran, and even thought about whether Emperor Hongjia would express his anger at Qilian Yuran after her death.

Fortunately, facts have proven that Emperor Hongjia still loves Qilian Yuran very much.

"Yan'er, I haven't heard your words during this journey, but you don't like me, my fourth brother." Xuanyuan Yuzhen looked at the little girl in front of him and said with a smile.

Qingyan listened to Xuanyuan Yuzhen's words and shook her head helplessly, "What did the fourth brother say? I was just a little distracted when the fourth brother talked about his mother and concubine." As she spoke, she turned her eyes to the window, and then Youyou said, "Perhaps Queen Xianyi has never blamed the mother-in-law."

Xuanyuan Yuzhen sighed in various ways, "I have also tried to persuade my concubine in this way, but my concubine has never listened. She has always lived in sister Yan's world."

Listening to Xuanyuan Yuzhen's words, Qingyan smiled and said, "What kind of woman does Fourth Brother think Queen Xianyi is?"

Xuanyuan Yuzhen obviously did not expect Qingyan to ask such a question. He looked at Qingyan and shrugged helplessly, "I have never met Sister Yan, but my mother-in-law has always said that Sister Yan is a very gentle woman. I think She should generally be like a mother and concubine."

Qi Lian Qingyan is indeed similar to Qi Lian Yu Ran, even in appearance. After her aunt died at that time, she has been raised under Qi Lian Yu Ran's knees.

Later, they didn't separate until Qilian Yuran married to Donghe Country, but in fact, Qilian Yuran has always been a mother-like existence in Qilian Qingyan's heart.

The maternal love she felt from Qilian Yuran had exceeded a girl's longing for her mother.

Her aunt died in childbirth, and she was basically raised by Qilian Yuran, so Qilian Yuran was her mother to her.

"My mother is trapped in Queen Xianyi's obsession and can't get out. Why did the fourth brother come to me?" Qingyan said with a smile on her face when she looked at Xuanyuan Yuzhen.

Xuanyuan Yuzhen looked at her and raised his hand to rub her head, "Because the concubine wants to see you, I sometimes feel that the concubine is missing something when she looks at you. At the Dragon Gate Banquet, the concubine is willing to do this. It’s probably the same for helping you.”

Qingyan shrugged helplessly after listening to Xuanyuan Yuzhen's words, "Maybe there is God's will in the dark, and I also feel a sense of intimacy with my mother and concubine."

Xuanyuan Yuzhen laughed softly after hearing Qingyan's words, "If the mother-in-law hears what you say, she will be very happy."

"Fourth brother, have you heard about what happened at the camp outside the city today." Qingyan said as she told Xuanyuan Yuzhen about the scene she saw this morning.

"I happened to meet General Su when I left the palace. They should have told the old man about this matter." Xuanyuan Yuzhen probably meant to tell her not to worry about this matter.

Qingyan looked at him and shook her head, "Fourth brother, do you know who wrote what happened in the camp outside the city?"

Xuanyuan Yuzhen frowned when he heard Qingyan's words, "Could it be that someone did it on purpose?"

Qingyan looked at the expression on his face and nodded seriously, "Exactly, and this was written by Xuanyuan Yufan. He probably thought that if my father died, he might find ways to get the money in my father's hands. share of military power."

"It's a joke. Even if General Su dies, it won't be his second son's turn to seize the military power." Xuanyuan Yuzhen said in a deep voice, "But how did you know about it, Yan'er?"

"Fourth brother should have heard rumors about the spirit-controlling technique." Qingyan looked at Xuanyuan Yuzhen and said calmly, "The girl who mastered the spirit-controlling technique is an old friend of mine, but she was killed by Su I was deceived by Qingming, so I used the spirit control technique to hurt those people."

"The second one is a good trick." Xuanyuan Yuzhen snorted coldly, "But how are Yan'er going to take action?"

Qingyan smiled and said, "How does fourth brother think Xuanyuan Yufan will take action? He probably wants to take over this matter because he has a bargaining chip in his hand."

"Use the trick." Xuanyuan Yuzhen said seriously after seeing Qingyan's confident look.

Qingyan smiled and nodded, "Exactly, why don't we use the trick? You pretend that you don't know that this girl is my old friend, and you don't know the reason of the matter. Since Xuanyuan Yufan wants to take her over, just let him take her over. .”

"Then you plan to have the mantis stalk the cicada and the oriole behind you?" Xuanyuan Yuzhen began to admire the girl in front of her more and more. Although she didn't know why a girl who had not yet reached hairpins could think of this, it was enough to surprise him.

"Exactly." Qingyan said as she curved her lips, "Is there someone else I want to meet this time when I enter the palace? I also hope that the fourth brother will make arrangements for me."

"Who does Yan'er want to see?" Xuanyuan Yuzhen has not heard that Qingyan has any acquaintances in the palace, but this is unknown. After all, Xuanyuan Yuning and Mu Zhimin have also been living in the palace. Is it possible? Could it be that you want to see them

"I want to meet Taoist Priest Xuanxin of Qin Tian Jian." Qingyan looked at Xuanyuan Yuzhen and said calmly, "I once heard His Highness the Crown Prince say that Taoist Priest Xuanxin knows the past and knows the future, so I want to meet him." This is Taoist Master Xuanxin.”

Hearing Qingyan say that she wanted to see Taoist Priest Xuanxin, and thinking of Murong Jingxuan's character, he didn't think it was inappropriate. He looked at Qingyan and nodded, "Okay, I guess you will stay in the palace today. I will The matter of meeting Qin Tianjian will be arranged for you until early tomorrow morning."
