The group pets the little fisherman, she has a lot of happy events

Chapter 699: If you adopt a nephew from the Prime Minister’s Mansion, it’s enough to have someone inherit the throne.
The children couldn't sit still, so they slipped off their chairs halfway through the meal, chasing and quarreling around the banquet, having a great time.

Sister Bao walked behind her brothers with her short legs, giggling happily.

The Empress Dowager looked at her children and grandchildren dotingly, smiled and suddenly her eyes turned red, and she shed tears in front of all her relatives.

"Mother."

Ye Junlan was shocked, and subconsciously supported her mother, her eyes showing worry: "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

"Don't you know what my mother is thinking about?"

The Empress Dowager took advantage of the wine and shook off his hand.

The huge hall suddenly became quiet, and there was no sound.

Even the juniors were shocked to realize that something was wrong. They stopped playing around and secretly hid behind the adults to peek.

"Cough cough."

Ye Junlan covered her mouth with her hand and coughed twice to cover up her embarrassment.

"Mother."

Ye Xiuyan stepped forward to help her eldest brother out: "My daughter doesn't know what's on your mind, please tell Yan'er, okay?"

"The queen mother is not feeling well, and it's not because she made your royal sister-in-law angry."

The Empress Dowager finally vented her sadness that she had been holding back for a long time with the help of alcohol: "She is a person who doesn't understand the world at all. She is only focused on cultivation. You finally came back and didn't see her show up. To outsiders, I don’t know, I thought your sisters-in-law were at odds with each other.”

"Sister, that's not the case."

Ye Junlan's heart trembled, and he quickly defended his beloved wife: "Ran Yue has always been grateful to Jing Cheng for rescuing each other. I had long wanted to visit you in Liyang. It was because my eldest brother had something to do that I delayed it."

"It was a coincidence this time. She happened to have some insights not long ago. She didn't want to miss the opportunity, so she set up a formation retreat in the palace to practice. After counting the days, it's time to come out." "Practice is important."

Ye Xiuyan was considerate and responded to her eldest brother with a sweet smile: "My sister is also obsessed with practicing. I can understand her mood and won't blame the emperor's sister-in-law."

"As long as my sister doesn't blame her."

Ye Junlan was just about to breathe a sigh of relief when the Empress Dowager's dissatisfied complaints came to her ears again.

"Not only does she not understand human affairs, but what's even more irritating is that after three years of marriage, she gave birth to a baby girl, and she refused to give birth to her again no matter what. The Xiliang royal family doesn't even have a legitimate heir. If it continues like this, wouldn't it be bad? The hearts of the people were unstable and the country was in turmoil.

"Mother."

Ye Junlan coughed twice in embarrassment and interrupted his mother's words: "My sister just came back. What are you talking about? The atmosphere of a good family dinner has been ruined."

"You still won't let me say it?"

The Empress Dowager was drunk, glared, and spat on his face: "Unfilial son, you married a wife and forgot about your mother. I have worried about you all my life. When you get old, I have to worry about your country. You are not filial and you blame me instead."

"Isn't he just a son?"

Ye Junlan was probably angered by the empress dowager's spit. The young emperor, who had always been gentle and elegant, rarely showed a bit of irritation: "What's there to be anxious about? It's really not possible. I can adopt a nephew from the prime minister's house and have someone inherit the throne." ”

"Brother, why do you want to adopt someone?"

Ye Xiuyan suddenly spoke, interrupting the confrontation between mother and son: "Sister, I have something to say that I have wanted to say for a long time. Men have been superior to women in Xiliang for a long time, which has restricted many talented and ambitious women in the boudoir who cannot show their ambitions. It is time for us to Abolition."

"Why can't a daughter inherit the throne? Can't she follow Feng Qi's example, advocate equality between men and women, allow women to go to school, do business, become female officials, change their destiny and get ahead through their own efforts?"
