Empress Lin Ance

Chapter 75 74. You misheard, Aijia never said
**
The queen mother is good at age, and her eyesight is not good, so she still plays with embroidery at such an old age.

Chu Qingyan restrained her eyes and greeted respectfully.

"Lin'an met the Queen Mother, Queen Mother Jin'an."

As soon as she made a sound, the people over there noticed that she had come in. The Queen Mother asked people to put away the things, and she was helped by Nanny Gui.

She is full of bearing, graceful and luxurious.

"The granddaughter of the Ai family is very difficult to invite. She didn't know to come to see my old woman when she returned to the palace. She finally came and didn't even call her grandmother."

The Empress Dowager seemed to be a bit angry, she supported Nanny Gui with one hand, and lifted her with the other, "Get up."

Chu Qingyan got up and sat on the seat beside her, with a look of helplessness on her face.

"Grandma has so many people coaxing her, so naturally there is no shortage of Lin'an."

"Huh." The Queen Mother snorted angrily, "The Ai family has eleven grandchildren, all of whom are filial. Presumably, the ancestors did not have enough virtue, and only an unfilial girl like you was born!"

Chu Qingyan didn't speak.

"What? Ai's family was wrong. If you didn't come to you with A Li's news, could you come and see Ai's family?"

"You girl is used to being wild outside. Changle Palace is now an empty shell. Anyang asked Ai's family for several times. If you can't help it, just give it to her!"

"Mother..." Nanny Gui sighed, and winked at the queen mother, she clearly missed the third princess, so why would she be so angry with others when she came here.

In this way, the three princesses are still willing to come!

The queen mother snorted coldly, and was not ready to speak anymore. She glanced at Chu Qingyan quietly, but found that the girl's mind wandered too far, and she didn't know what else to think about!

"Humph!"

The queen mother snorted angrily, and Chu Qingyan finally came to her senses, and she calmly said:
"Since grandma mentioned Brother Huang, please explain clearly."

She was right, if she hadn't been lured by Chu Qingli's news, she probably wouldn't have come.

The Empress Dowager was annoyed for a while. Just as she couldn't help but want to get angry, Nanny Gui hurriedly reminded her, "Empress Dowager, why did you forget, isn't today just to clarify with the princess..."

After being reminded by her, the Empress Dowager managed to suppress her temper. Seeing Chu Qingyan's face full of thirst for knowledge, she raised her hand, and all the palace people withdrew except Nanny Gui.

For a while, there were only three of them left in the hall.

The Empress Dowager's emotions seemed to have calmed down, and she recalled those years in a daze.

"A Li, he really didn't die suddenly."

"Back then, he disappeared."

After saying those words, Chu Qingyan suddenly stood up from her seat!

……

After a stick of incense, Chu Qingyan sat back with a dazed expression.

Sure enough, her imperial brother didn't die suddenly, but she never expected that Chu Qingli disappeared that year.

He's just missing, he's alive!

"You are right about one thing. The imperial palace cannot accommodate a mad prince, but we have no intention of giving up on him. That's why your father secretly sent him to the other garden outside the palace for treatment."

"As for later, the fire in Bieyuan burned everything clean, except that there was no trace of A Li's body."

In order to stabilize Chao Gang, it can only be said to the outside world that the former prince died suddenly.

Otherwise, once people know that the former prince is still alive, there will inevitably be a storm of searching for or killing the prince, and it will be very easy for people to take advantage of it... Only she and the emperor know about this.

The queen mother sighed, "For so many years, the Ai family and the emperor have never given up searching."

But it is obvious that even though Chu Qingli did not die that year, a 13-year-old foolish boy living among the people, eight years later, it is almost impossible to have a chance of surviving.

She knew this, and Chu Qingyan naturally knew it too.

She kept silent, which made the queen mother a little worried, "The reason why I didn't tell you was because I didn't think it was necessary. You were too young back then, and your father and I have tried our best to search for it."

"But it is true that I suggested sending him out of the palace, otherwise he might not be in danger, and you are right to blame me..."

"Grandmother, thank you for telling me all this today." Chu Qingyan stood up and bowed respectfully to her.

"But I believe that he will not die."

Even the stupid and crazy back then, she didn't believe that he was stimulated by the death of his mother.

When her mother died, she cried a lot. Chu Qingli once said a word to her——

Brother will always be there, and will protect Lin'an for the rest of his life.

"Lin'an didn't want to blame grandma. Under the circumstances at that time, I'm afraid Lin'an couldn't make a better choice, but... just couldn't get over that hurdle."

As she said, if she hadn't insisted on sending Brother Huang away, there would probably not have been such incidents, so that Brother Huang's life and death are unknown now.

"Lin'an still has something to do, so I'll go back first."

Chu Qingli got up to leave, but was stopped by the Queen Mother, who sighed, "You just returned to Chang'an, where are you going?"

"The Ai family knows what you are capable of, and a letter of solution will make the grassland people play around, but the grassland is full of dangers, why do you still want to go?"

Chu Qingyan paused, she did not explain to the Queen Mother.

But the queen mother has obviously done her homework, she said slowly: "Ruoai's family is right, you are marrying the princess for the girl from the Pei family?"

Nanny Gui didn't speak, but she knew...

For the sake of Princess Yongping, Princess Lin'an actually contradicted the old matriarch. After hearing about this incident, the queen mother was also very dissatisfied with the princess of the Pei family.

Chu Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, and said each word carefully: "Grandma's words are right, Lin'an is just for the Princess Yongping who kissed the grassland for me."

"Bullshit!"

The queen mother said sharply: "You know, even without her, you would never go to the grassland to make a kiss. It was Pei Huaizhi who asked her to go to make a kiss, so how can I do it for you?!"

She would never allow that group of prairie people to get involved with the princess of the Chu family!

Chu Qingyan changed her face. Since she didn't need to get married at all, why did she agree with Pei Wei to go to the grassland?

She shook her head, her eyes were cold, "Pei Hua and I are as close as sisters, no matter what, I can't leave her alone on the grassland."

"You are Dasheng's Princess Lin'an! What can she do to ask you to escort her?!"

The queen mother was short of breath and spoke angrily.

Chu Qingyan was unmoved, and just bowed, "Lin'an is very grateful for what my grandmother said to me today, and I know that my grandmother is concerned, but I have made up my mind, please don't get angry, grandmother, and take care of yourself."

After the words fell, she didn't stay any longer, she just got up and left.

"If you want to leave, Aijia will decide to give Changle Palace to Anyang today!"

The queen mother grabbed the teacup on the table and threw it on the ground. When she was furious, Chu Rao's voice sounded outside the palace.

Nanny Gui was surprised, "Queen Mother, Princess Anyang is here..."

"Grandmother, I heard everything! Is it true that you want to give me Changle Palace?"

Chu Rao's face was full of joy, and she jumped in and got a palace that she had been thinking about day and night for nothing. She even forgot that she was here to sue.

But immediately, the queen mother said calmly:
"No, you heard wrong, the Ai family never said that."
