Qilian Yuran listened to the maid's words and looked at Emperor Hongjia again. Although Qilian Yuran didn't know exactly why he came, he seemed to be able to vaguely feel something.
Today's events have completely threatened the prince's status. Although the prince does not care about this position very much, it is because Xuanyuan Yuzhen has no interest in the throne that he can firmly sit in this position.
Emperor Hongjia looked at Qilian Yuran's gaze, looked at the maid and ordered, "I will settle this matter with the queen when the time comes, so there is no need to come in."
Listening to Emperor Hongjia's words, Qilian Yuran breathed a sigh of relief. She knew that it was not that she didn't want to see the prince now, but that Qingyan and Murong Jingxuan were still here. According to the current situation, she could still imagine that there would be What a terrible thing to happen.
"Yan'er, it's okay. You don't have to feel aggrieved. If you really don't want to help the prince, then we won't help." Qilian Yuran looked at Qing Yan and comforted softly, "Anyway, our fourth son doesn't care about the throne."
"Concubine, did Yan'er really do something wrong, that's why the queen treated me like that?" Qingyan looked at Qilian Yuran and said with aggrieved expression, "I didn't do this just to help fourth brother."
Qilian Yuran looked at Qingyan and patted her shoulder, "The queen doesn't know how to praise her. What does it have to do with you? I really didn't expect that Xu Shiwan didn't take me seriously."
"Concubine, you must not go against the Queen for me. After all, this matter was originally my meddling." Qingyan looked at Qilian Yuran and said helplessly, "If I hadn't insisted on helping Fourth Brother, so what? There will be a situation like today.”
"Silly girl, you are helping Fourth Brother just for my sake. Who is Xu Shiwan?" Qilian Yuran said and looked at Emperor Hongjia again.
Emperor Hongjia looked at Qilian Yuran's sad look and could only remain silent. He felt that no matter what he said now, it was useless, and the best way now was to leave Guanju Palace and deal with this matter immediately. matter.
"Ran Ran, if that's the case, then I will deal with this matter first." Emperor Hongjia looked at Qilian Yuran and spoke seriously. He looked at Qing Yan and said with a smile, "Yan'er, don't worry, this matter is my father's. Definitely on your side.”
Qingyan looked at the expression on Emperor Hongjia's face and bowed, "Thank you, my dear father."
"Go away quickly, I'll be upset if you see it."
Listening to Qilian Yuran's angry words, Emperor Hongjia could only leave Guanyong Palace with a look of despair.
"Mother and concubine, you shouldn't involve your father in this matter." Qingyan looked at Qilian Yuran and said helplessly, "This will only make Yan'er feel bad."
"Silly boy, you said some stupid things, but that Xu Shiwan is indeed a capable person." Qilian Yuran looked at Qingyan and said softly, "I really don't know about the queen summoning you. If I knew, I would definitely not I’ll let you go see her.”
Qingyan looked at Qilian Yuran and shook her head, "I just don't want to embarrass my mother and concubine."
"Yan'er, I can't forgive you for this matter. I hope you can forgive Fourth Brother." Xuanyuan Yuzhen looked at Qingyan who was standing next to Qilian Yuran and said apologetically, "This matter is because I didn't think carefully."
Qingyan looked at Xuanyuan Yuzhen's apologetic look and shook her head, "Don't take Jingxuan's words to heart yesterday. We are all a family. It doesn't matter if I feel a little wronged."
After listening to Qingyan's words, Murong Jingxuan spoke unhappily, "Are you aggrieved? If you die in the palace, I would like to see how the fourth child will deal with it in the general's palace."
"By the way, mother concubine." Qingyan looked up at Qilian Yuran and said with a serious face, "I saved a person before. This person is an enemy of the Marquis of Jingguo and an enemy of the Queen, although I know you don't want to deal with it. The queen, I don’t want to deal with the prince, but just in case, I still want to keep this person with Ning Zhaoyi, does mother-in-law think this is good?"
Listening to Qingyan's words, Qilian Yuran smiled and said, "Who would have anything to do with Ning Zhaoyi?"
Qingyan looked at Qi Lian Yuran and told Qi Lian Yuran all the news she had recently investigated. Qi Lian Yuran really didn't expect that Xu Shiwan had such a past before entering the palace.
"I didn't expect Xu Shiwan to have such a past. What do you think Xu Shiwan would think if she saw Xu Yao standing next to Ning Zhaoyi?"
Listening to Qilian Yuran's words, Qingyan smiled and said, "My mother and concubine are still wise. I originally didn't want Xu Yao to show his true appearance, but now that my mother and concubine said this, it seems to be a good choice."
"Okay, let him come in and show me." Qilian Yuran said and pulled Qingyan to the soft couch on one side.
After Xu Yao walked in, he bowed respectfully to Qilian Yuran. Qilian Yuran found that his eyebrows were indeed somewhat similar to those of Marquis Jingguo.
However, Marquis Jingguo would never have imagined that the son he had abandoned at the time would suddenly reappear in this world, resurrected from the dead.
"Are you Xu Yao?" Qilian Yuran looked at Xu Yao and said calmly, "Are you Ning Zhaoyi's younger brother?"
Xu Yao listened to Qilian Yuran's words and said respectfully, "Exactly."
"Okay, in that case, I will send you to protect Ning Zhaoyi. What do you think?" Qilian Yuran looked at Xu Yao and still smiled and said, "Since it is the person recommended by the princess, I will naturally be the one recommended by the princess. There will be no doubt.”
"Please rest assured, my Majesty, my subordinates will do their best to protect the Concubine Xian." Xu Yao lowered his head and spoke respectfully.
"Okay, come here, go find Concubine Xian for me, and tell me that I have something to reward her."
"My slave obeys your orders."

When the eunuch went to deliver the message, Ning Sicai seemed to be busy with something. When she heard the news, she immediately put down the things in her hands and asked Zhuer to dress her up, and then left with her father-in-law to Guanju Palace.
Ning Sicai was thinking along the way that the reason why Qilian Yuran summoned her might be because of Xu Yao's affairs. She did not expect that Qingyan would be so efficient, but having a younger brother by her side to protect him, she felt that what she had done Everything was worth it, after all, she now has relatives by her side.
When she thought of this, Ning Sicai's lips curved slightly.
"Zhu'er, what do you mean the imperial concubine summoned me for?" Ning Sicai looked at Zhu'er beside her and asked in a low voice.
"I don't know, slave, but it's probably because your Majesty has been favored recently, so I want to win over your Majesty." Zhu'er looked at the unfamiliar little maids around and spoke in a low voice.
The father-in-law who was walking in front naturally knew that Ning Sicai was actually Qilian Yuran's person, and he said these words to prevent someone with malicious intentions from taking advantage of her.
He turned back to look at Ning Sicai and said sharply, "Our family heard that the empress got a treasure and said it was going to be given to empress Xianbi, so we asked our family to find the empress."
