Her Majesty's gaze paused on Qin Nuo's face for a moment. It was just that Qin Muxue was slightly thinner than her, making her seem a little delicate. Although she was very natural, unlike her, it was not with an unspeakable force, but rather with a kind of toughness that came from the bones. Although her face was gentle, it gave people a kind of tenacious feeling.

What a pity! Without a family, no matter how beautiful a woman was, she could not be a mother to the world. And her most beloved grandson must inherit the throne!

"Esteemed Empress Dowager!"

Qin Nuo agreed with a smile. From the looks of it, Esteemed Empress Dowager did not have the intention of letting Miss Jing Er be the Chief Consort. That's true! A demon wanted to inherit the throne. The empress dowager was such a shrewd person, so how could she let him be sentimental? The last thing the royal family needed was true love!

Ling Yexuan stared closely at Qin Nuo, but there was not a trace of anxiety or worry on her face. She'd been like this ever since she'd returned from the palace, only that he'd refused to acknowledge Prime Minister Qin as his foster father.

"I think that's good enough! In any case, even if King Jing suspected something, with the Esteemed Empress Dowager supporting him, what was there to be afraid of? If I accept Prime Minister Qin as my foster father, then it would make people even more suspicious. " Qin Nuo opened his eyes wide, looking innocent.

When Ling Yexuan heard Qin Nuo still call his grandmother Esteemed Empress Dowager, he couldn't help but frown.

Today when he entered the palace, he was afraid that this woman would make a mistake or be unable to resist his grandmother's domineering nature. He had originally wanted to accompany her forever.

However, it was a huge matter for him to bring Chief Consort back to the palace. All the brothers who had been separated from the palace returned, and those who had wives and lateral consort also went to the palace to reunite. Before he could say a word, his grandmother told him to go off with his brothers and not stay here and listen to their women. Although he was worried, he couldn't just wait there. Thus, he had no choice but to come out.

Ling Yexuan's heart tensed up, he really didn't know what his grandmother would say to her. When he rushed to his mother's place, the room was already filled with imperial concubines, concubines, Consort Su, Consort De, Consort Xian and the other imperial concubines, as well as his eldest brother, second brother's Chief Consort s and lateral consort s. Seeing him walk in, his eldest sister-in-law Consort Heng even laughed and teased him.

It was inconvenient for him to say more, so he could only look at the woman. Seeing that there was no trace of unease in her smile, she felt slightly relieved and went back to her bros.

He knew that although his mother was gentle and didn't care too much about the affairs of the palace, if any consort wanted to make use of this opportunity to create trouble, his mother would definitely protect his consort and not let those with ill intentions succeed. Besides, his consort wasn't someone who was easy to deal with! He was only afraid of someone who wanted to see through her and knew that she was not the young miss of the Qin family, Qin Muxue.

Thus, after the palace feast passed, he didn't stay any longer and brought her back to the Duke Palaces. On the way, he asked her how she felt, but she only answered lightly, "It's all right," and refused to speak again.

When Peaches and lass were changing clothes for her, he asked Ming Liu and Ying He, who had followed them into the palace, about it. The two girls said that there was nothing else they could do at the Empress's place, and no one wanted to cause trouble for Empress. It was just that when the Nanny Wu brought them to the side hall for tea, he did not hear the empress dowager and the wangfei say anything.

The thing that Ling Yexuan was most worried about was his grandmother. Because his mother and the other imperial concubines did not know Qin Nuo's true identity, his grandmother was different. But he had asked her many times, and she had said "all right" and "all right", leaving him speechless.

He endured it several times, but in the end, he did not speak any of the questions that he wanted to ask. However, her insistence on not recognizing Prime Minister Qin as her foster father only made his heart feel uneasy, but also a faint sense of anger. This woman was obviously going against him!

"Are you sure you don't want to go to Qin Manor?" Ling Yexuan asked again in a low voice.

"I …" Qin Nuo was about to confirm when she suddenly stopped herself and looked at Ling Yexuan vigilantly. If I don't go, you won't let me see my brother and cousin, will you? "

Ling Yexuan could not help but sob. In the eyes that he looked at Qin Nuo with, there was a small cluster of flames.

"If you want to see them, you can see them at any time. However, in the past two days, I have been busy with court affairs and have also ordered some people to fix up lateral consort's residence. Don't worry! Your older brother and cousin will not run away. One day, you will meet them! "

When Qin Nuo entered the room, Ling Yexuan's Kikuji s were discussing something in low voices. There was no need to pay any attention to it. She knew that it was definitely about the matter of lateral consort entering the palace. At first, she only said that and there were already people who could not control her emotions, but now, Ling Yexuan had already ordered people to clean up the courtyard.

Qin Nuo indifferently sat down on the chair, her gaze sweeping across everyone's faces, and revealing a faint smile. Seeing that no one was moving, Zhuo Tao could not help but cough lightly. The Kikuji seemed to have just woken up as they quickly got up and paid respects to Qin Nuo.

"Greetings Empress!"

"Sit down!" Qin Nuo replied with a smile. She did not say anything more and accepted the tea from the peaches as she drank it slowly.

"Empress!" Mei Yue could not hold it in any longer, and was the first to speak, her voice was sweet like sugar. I heard that the Prince has sent people to clean up the Meng Xin Yuan, that is the biggest courtyard in the palace besides the main house! It looks like the Prince has a great deal of interest in that concubine who has yet to pass. "

"Sister Mei Yue is used to saying silly things!" Mu Rulan covered her mouth and laughed. The concubine is the prince's beloved, so naturally he would care about it.

"No matter who the Prince is interested in, the lateral consort is still the lateral consort. Don't break the rules." Qin Nuo put down the teacup and lightly said.

"The Empress is right!" No matter how much the Prince loves the concubine, the Empress is still the empress and the concubine will always remember it! " Mu Rulan immediately said, her face was filled with a gentle smile, but the words she said were extremely choking.

"It doesn't matter who is with you in the future, or who is missing. The rules cannot change. "Speaking of which, we are all sisters from the same family. The most important thing is for us to get along with each other so that the Prince won't have to worry about us!" While Qin Nuo was speaking her noble words, she was also ridiculing herself in her heart. It was really difficult for ancient women to not even have the right to be jealous! Fortunately, she had watched a lot of TV shows, so she knew how to act magnanimous!

It was boring anyway, so it was quite interesting to see the scheming faces of these women.

The Kikuji s said their goodbyes and left Qin Nuo with Xia Yi Qiu and Shen Yixin, slowly chatting with each other. The two of them were both part of Wang Ji, and could be considered the concubines with the highest status in the mansion.

Actually, Qin Nuo did not have anything urgent to do, but she had nothing to say. The main reason was that she did not want Ling Yexuan to come back and face him alone.

By noon, Ling Yexuan did not return home, and neither did Qin Nuo keep Xia and Shen'er to eat. She wasn't in a good mood to begin with, but the less he ate, the more restrained he became!

Ling Yexuan seemed to be very busy, as he didn't even come back in the afternoon of the next few days. He came back to the house at night, but it was very late, so he didn't come to the pavilion to take a look. Qin Nuo did not care where he went nor did he ask. He just sent people to take a look at the Meng Xin Yuan everyday, waiting for the manager to pass the time.

That afternoon, Qin Nuo was in a daze, and was still pondering how she could see Big Brother and Tang Mo. However, she heard the lass mumbling, and it was unknown what they were talking about.

"Keep your voice down, Empress can hear you!" Zhuo Tao shouted. Let everyone be quiet, but she was louder than anyone else.

Qin Nuo pursed her lips, looked at Ming Liu who had a trace of shadow flash past her face, and the peaches with slightly creased eyebrows, and couldn't help but smile.

"But what's interesting? "Why don't you tell me?"

Ming Liu and Peaches looked at each other and shook their heads.

"Nothing new or interesting." "Peach smiled and said." It's them naughty girls. "

"That's right!" "Empress." Ming Liu immediately laughed. The few little girls were joking just now. Sister Zhuo Tao was afraid that she would disturb the Empress. "

Qin Nuo laughed, and did not speak. Since the two girls didn't want to say it, it was better if she didn't make things difficult for them.

"Actually, it wasn't much, little lass was just making a fuss!" Zhuo Tao took a few steps forward and said with a smile. However, since the prince had returned, he ordered his subordinates to replace the original bridal veil and red silk. The wedding was over, it was only right! It's just that the Prince has to change his red silk again. "

Seeing Zhuo Tao trying her best to hide her desire to see a good show, Qin Nuo knew it was not that simple, but she still smiled and said.

"A new person wants to enter the manor and change into a new one. What is there to do with that!"

Just as Qin Nuo finished speaking, the expression on Bi Tao's face slightly changed, but quickly returned to normal. However, Ming Liu's face revealed a look of indignation. Originally, she had not wanted to say it, so as to not create trouble for the Empress. But since Zhuo Tao had already said it, and he couldn't hide it anymore, he might as well say what was at the bottom of his heart.
