After marrying a powerful minister, the female partner was pampered

The two-year age difference doesn't seem to be a problem.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on her face unconsciously.

Qin Xuan saw that her eyes were suddenly staring at him with a big smile on her face. His Adam's apple rolled and he slowly lowered his head.

Realizing his intention, the princess paused and closed her eyes.

The moment their lips touched, Qin Xuan's mind went blank, and he unconsciously retracted his hands around her waist.

……

After Qin Xuan left, the eldest princess thought about it and decided to go to the palace.

The Empress Dowager was a little surprised to see her coming into the palace so late.

"Yu'er, why did you come to the palace at this time?" the Queen Mother said kindly.

Looking at the kindness on her mother's face, the eldest princess felt a little annoyed.

How could she believe what Prince Ning said and think that it was her mother who killed her biological mother?

She felt guilty and walked over and sat down next to the Queen Mother. "I miss you, Mother." As she spoke, she leaned her head affectionately on the Queen Mother's shoulder, showing great dependence.

Seeing this, the Queen Mother was even more surprised. She reached out and touched her hair, saying with a smile: "Why do you suddenly miss me?"

This daughter has always been very temperamental. Although she has been raised by her side since birth, she has never been so intimate with her.

This is the first time.

The Queen Mother couldn't help but feel emotional and warm.

This daughter was not raised in vain.

"In Yu'er's heart, mother is the most important person." The eldest princess hugged her arms and said softly.

The Queen Mother was touched, "Our Princess Yu'er has grown up."

After the mother and daughter cuddled together quietly for a while, the Queen Mother stroked the eldest princess' hair and asked softly, "But what happened?"

Hearing this, the princess slowly sat up straight and asked with a complicated expression, "Did something happen?"

The Queen Mother's expression tightened, and she asked hurriedly with concern: "What happened?"

Seeing the concern that could not be concealed on her mother's face, the eldest princess sighed in her heart.

The Queen Mother treated her as her own daughter. Although there had been some unpleasant things in the past, the Queen Mother was really good to her, and that kind of kindness could not be faked.

The princess did not hesitate any longer and told her what Prince Ning had said to her today.

Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager was so angry that her face turned blue, and she slapped the table heavily, "Chu Yu, I have treated him well, but he is trying to sow discord between us mother and daughter.

Yu'er, do you believe in your mother?" The Queen Mother's face was anxious as she spoke.

Facing her mother's anxious eyes, the eldest princess nodded gently but firmly, "In this world, the person Yu'er trusts most is her mother. It is impossible for her to kill my biological mother."

The Empress Dowager was very pleased to hear this, but she said solemnly: "Yu'er, I didn't kill your biological mother."

The eldest princess clenched her fingertips and asked, "Mother, can you tell me who killed my biological mother?"

The Queen Mother dodged her gaze and shook her head, saying, "Yu'er, please don't ask any more about this matter. I can only say that your biological mother's death was an accident."

Looking at her reaction, the eldest princess felt that this matter was not that simple and there must be something hidden behind it.

"Mother, I want to know, please tell me." The eldest princess pleaded. The Queen Mother sighed and frowned, "Yu'er, please don't embarrass me. I can't tell you."

Seeing her like this, the princess had a bold guess in her heart. She pursed her dry lips for a long time and asked in a hoarse voice, "Is my biological mother's death related to... my father?"

The Queen Mother was shocked and a little flustered, "Don't guess randomly. You should know best how your father treats you."

The eldest princess saw her panic and became more certain of her guess.

The death of her biological mother was indeed related to her father.

But why did the emperor kill her biological mother?
"Mother, what kind of person is my biological mother?" she asked.

The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment, then she said softly, "Your mother was a very beautiful woman. She could dance the most moving dance in the world. Your father loved her very much, but she had a short life. She died not long after giving birth to you."

The eldest princess was a little dazed when she heard this.

It turns out that her biological mother was a dancer...

Before her father passed away, he told her personally that she was not born to the Empress Dowager. But when she asked about her biological mother, her father refused to mention it and did not allow her to investigate.

So as for the identity of her biological mother, she only vaguely heard that she was a minor concubine, and as for her origins, she knew nothing about it.

Today was the first time she knew her own life experience so clearly, and knew her biological mother's background and what kind of person she was.

"Mother, how did my biological mother die?" asked the eldest princess.

The Queen Mother sighed, "Why are you bringing up the same question again, kid? I told you that your biological mother's death was an accident."

"I know. I just want to know why my biological mother died at such a young age. Did she die of illness, or was she murdered?" The eldest princess looked at her with determination.

The Queen Mother paused for a moment before she spoke: "He was...killed by mistake."

"Did father kill her by mistake?" the eldest princess asked immediately.

The Queen Mother's eyelids jumped, "Don't talk nonsense!"

The princess looked at her pleadingly, "Mother, please don't hide it from me anymore. Even if I knew the truth, I would not blame my father. My father loved me so much. I believe that he must have had a reason for accidentally killing my mother, but I just want to know the truth.

Otherwise, if this matter is not clarified, it will be like a thorn in my heart, and can be used as a weapon against us at any time.

If I believed King Ning's words today, wouldn't that be a big mistake?"

A look of hesitation flashed across the Queen Mother's face.

"Mother?" The eldest princess shook her arm.

The Empress Dowager sighed deeply. "Since you want to know so much, I will tell you the truth. Back then, your biological mother captured the heart of the late emperor with a dance at his birthday banquet.

From then on, she was taken into the harem by the late emperor and was highly favored, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that she was not happy.

Naturally, the favor she received also aroused the jealousy of other concubines. There were countless eyes watching her in secret, waiting for her to make a mistake so that they could find something to hold against her and make her fall into the quagmire.

And just one month after your biological mother gave birth to you, she was caught having an affair with a royal guard.

When the late emperor learned of this, he was furious, and immediately ordered people to kill the guard. However, your biological mother protected the guard to the death, which made the late emperor jealous, and he drew his sword himself to kill the guard.

Unexpectedly, your biological mother rushed over and stood in front of the guards. In this way, the late emperor accidentally killed your biological mother.

The late emperor really loved your biological mother, and was very depressed for a while after your biological mother died."

The eldest princess frowned, and upon hearing this, she nervously asked, "Mother, is it true that my biological mother...had an affair with that imperial guard?" (End of this chapter)
