On the day of Qilian Yuran's birthday, Emperor Hongjia first sent many rewards. He knew that this was the first time Qilian Yuran held such a birthday banquet in Guanyong Palace, and Emperor Hongjia himself wanted to see the smile on Qilian Yuran's face. .
Qingyan and the others all gave some very common things, but Qilian Yuran still liked them very much. Although Qingyan didn't know what Qilian Yuran was thinking, she didn't know who the person behind Cheng Yuemeng was
But she knew this matter must not be that simple.
"Xiao Yan'er, what are you thinking about?" Murong Jingxuan looked at Qing Yan's expressions and said seriously, "Is it possible that you are still thinking about your mother and concubine?"
Qingyan looked at Murong Jingxuan who came out and nodded seriously, "I am indeed still thinking about my mother and concubine. Is this matter really as simple as I thought?"
Murong Jingxuan walked to Qingyan and looked at her and said seriously, "Xiao Yan'er, this is not something you have to worry about. Since the mother-in-law doesn't want us to interfere, she has her reasons."
Qingyan nodded seriously after listening to Murong Jingxuan's words, "Of course I understand this truth, but when I think about something unexpected happening to my mother-in-law, I feel inexplicably sad. Jingxuan, you should know, right? She is not only She is my mother-in-law and my only aunt in this world."
Murong Jingxuan naturally knew what Qingyan was thinking. He walked to Qingyan and hugged her, "Xiao Yan'er, don't worry, we will protect our mother and concubine."
"What I'm worried about now is what Cheng Yuemeng will plan at this time. After all, we haven't investigated clearly about Cheng Yuemeng. If anything happens during the birthday, it will definitely be the mother and concubine's responsibility." Qingyan looked at Murong Jing Xuan expressed his worries, "And I feel that my father must also know about this matter."
Murong Jingxuan listened to Qingyan's words, frowned and said, "How about I ask the fourth child and see what he knows?"
Qingyan looked at the expression on Murong Jingxuan's face and shook her head, "Fourth brother doesn't know either. If my mother and my father really don't want us to know, we definitely won't know."
"Yan'er still understands the father and the mother." Xuanyuan Yuzhen walked towards them when he saw the two of them, "The matter with the mother and the concubine was all my fault back then."
"Fourth brother, please don't say that. The mother-in-law may have her own difficulties." Qingyan looked at Xuanyuan Yuzhen and said seriously, "It's a pity that sixth brother and Ning'er are no longer here. If they were here, they should It will be lively.”
Xuanyuan Yuzhen raised the corners of his lips when he heard Qingyan's joy, "That's why they came back specially today." He said and stood aside, and standing behind him were Xuanyuan Yukai and Xuanyuan Yuning.
"Yan'er, long time no see! I miss you so much." Xuanyuan Yuning said and pounced on Qingyan, "I didn't know Qingyan missed me so much."
Looking at Xuanyuan Yuning in front of her, Qingyan raised her lips happily, "Ning'er, long time no see. You've grown up a lot."
Qingyan could feel that Xuanyuan Yuning's aura was different from before. Maybe this time she went out and experienced something that really made her grow.
"It's been a long time, sister Yan'er." Xuanyuan Yukai looked at Qing Yan and said with a smile, "We came back specially on the occasion of my mother's birthday."
Qingyan looked at Xuanyuan Yukai. The young man in front of her seemed to have matured a lot. Although she didn't know what they had gone through, she had an intuition that told him that all the doubts in their hearts should have been resolved.
"Ning'er, look at my sixth brother, his temperament has changed a lot since he met my grandfather." Xuanyuan Yuning looked at Qing Yan and said with a smile, "However, sixth brother must still be acquainted with Yan'er. That sixth brother."
"Silly girl." Qingyan said as she patted Xuanyuan Yuning's head, "No matter how I change, my sixth brother will still be the same sixth brother I know."
"That's right, that's right, I'm still a child in front of Sister Yan'er." Xuanyuan Yukai said with a childish smile.
Just when they were enjoying themselves happily, they saw the maid next to Qilian Yuran running towards them, "Your Highness, Your Highness, it's not good, Concubine Shu has been poisoned."
When they heard this sentence, they spoke with puzzled faces. Qingyan was the first to speak, "Concubine Shu is poisoned. What does it have to do with us?"
"The person Concubine Shu accused of poisoning is the empress." The maid looked at Qingyan and the others and cried, "And the empress has already admitted it. This matter has alarmed His Majesty."
Qingyan listened to the maid's words, and they looked at each other.
They understand Qilian Yuran's character, and it is impossible to poison Cheng Yuemeng under such circumstances. And if this is also Cheng Yuemeng's conspiracy, it can only be said that this conspiracy does not seem unreasonable, but why did Qilian Yuran do it again? Admit it
When Murong Jingxuan looked at Qingyan, he held her hand, as if hoping to transfer strength to her.
Feeling the warmth coming from the palm of her hand, Qingyan relaxed.
Since it is what Qilian Yuran wants to do, she should choose to believe in Qilian Yuran. At least Qilian Yuran will definitely not harm herself.
When they walked to the dormitory, they saw Emperor Hongjia squatting on the side with Concubine Shu in his arms, and Qilian Yuran sitting on the side with disheveled hair. Qingyan had never seen Qilian Yuran in such a state. Her aunt was the apple of the eye of the Qilian family. Never had she. She was so embarrassed, but when she looked at Emperor Hongjia, what she saw was indifference in his eyes.
Just when Qingyan wanted to step forward, Murong Jingxuan grabbed her wrist. He knew the status of Qilian Yuran in Qingyan's heart, because Qilian Yuran was not only her mother-in-law, but also her former aunt.
But if he questioned rashly now, he would definitely be resented by Emperor Hongjia.
"Tell me, why did you frame Meng'er?" Emperor Hongjia looked at Qilian Yuran and said with disbelief, "Tell me the truth, and I will consider sparing you."
"Sister, if you really don't like me, just leave me. Why bother treating me like this?" Cheng Yuemeng cried in Emperor Hongjia's arms. When she looked at Emperor Hongjia, she had a look on her face. With tenderness, "Your Majesty, you must make the decision for me!"
"Qilian Yuran, did you hear what I said?" Emperor Hongjia looked at the silent Qilian Yuran and spoke impatiently.
"Xuanyuan Hong, are you satisfied that you and I will never see each other again?" Qilian Yuran looked up at Emperor Hongjia and spoke with determination, as if she had seen through everything.
Emperor Hongjia couldn't bear to look at Qilian Yuran. After the flash of distress in his eyes, his face remained indifferent.
"Okay, since it is what you asked for, then I will grant it to you." Xuanyuan Hong hugged Cheng Yuemeng and turned around to leave, without even looking at Qilian Yuran, who was sitting on the ground with disheveled hair.
