Playful Queen

Chapter 259

"Sister, what time is this, and you still want to ask Jinxiang to clean Fengyi Palace?"

Concubine Hui gently put down the cup, looked up at her younger sister, "I have been taking care of the harem, of course I have to arrange these things when the empress comes back."

"Sister, why are you still thinking about this! After Shen Mengli comes back, isn't your hard work for so many years in vain? Sister, I will find a way."

"It's more than just me being in vain. Naturally, it's not my turn to think of a solution to this matter, so there's no need to worry about it." With a cold light in Concubine Hui's eyes, she looked at Concubine Xue and reminded: "Don't blame me for not doing it." Remind you, your temper should also be restrained."

The sky is gradually breaking, the pale blue sky is inlaid with a few remnant stars, and the earth is hazy, like a veil of silver-gray shrouds.

In the early morning sunshine, several carriages parked outside the gate of the Yefu. Everyone gathered here to send off their master and their favorite godson and daughter. Although everyone knew the purpose of the master's return to the palace this time, they didn't. Don't worry, but as long as it's the master's decision, they won't say anything, they can only do what the master ordered or arranged, and when everything is mature, they will meet with the master in the capital.

However, they still have another worry about the two little guys who have been watching them grow up. Thinking of this, their faces showed reluctance and worry.

"Yuheng Yuxin, don't make trouble in the palace anymore. The palace is no better than our Qiyang City. If it's not good, you will die." Xi Yao touched the heads of the two little guys and said worriedly, Except for the last time they went to the capital, it was the first time they had to leave her for such a long time, and she was always uneasy.

The two little guys nodded obediently, and said, "Don't worry, godmother, we will take care of mother, and we will definitely not make trouble."

Of course they know that the harem is a place that eats people and doesn't spit out their bones. However, they are a little interested in observing and observing, and proceed carefully. The little guy had his own thoughts.

Yu Xin raised her mouth lightly, and when she arrived at the palace, there were so many rare treasures, she could just pick them up, and when she left with her mother in the future, she could sell them for a lot of money.

But Yu Heng's heart is even more eager to blossom. As the saying goes, the harem is the place with the most strange and unjust cases. These are all his hobbies. After so many years in the police academy, he just waits to be transferred to the serious crime team to investigate case, but...

I don't want to think about this for now, anyway, I am the prince now, maybe I can still go to the clan's mansion, this is equivalent to the modern General Bureau of Public Security.

When the two were thinking about it, they saw the figure of the mother, immediately retracted their thoughts, and ran towards the mother.

Mengli smiled, pulled up the two little guys, and looked at the person who sent them off: "Everyone go back."

After finishing speaking, she took the child down the steps and walked towards the carriage. At this moment, Zi Yechen came out of the carriage, dressed in a snow-white brocade robe, with sharp eyes and a pair of sword-like eyebrows outlining perfect lines, Domineering, but when she walked in front of Mengli, there was a little more tenderness in her cold eyes: "Li'er, get in the carriage."

Meng Li nodded, instead of walking towards Zi Yechen's carriage, she walked to the second carriage, "Thank you for your kindness, Meng Li will be fine in this carriage."

She was still so indifferent all the time, Zi Yechen felt a little lost in his heart, ordered someone to help her and the child into the carriage, and then entered the first carriage by himself, while Lvyi and Qinglian also got into the third one, Xiao Quanzi He Zhuifeng led the bodyguards on horseback to escort them, and just such a group of people galloped towards the capital.

The two carriages have slowly stopped in front of a forest, all the flowers are gone, the fallen leaves are flying, the wind is as cool as water, and the afterglow of the setting sun penetrates the gap, reflecting the mottled shadows of the branches.

In the carriage at the front, after being rejected by Mengli, Zi Yechen's complexion was not very good, leaning against the soft couch, there was always an untouchable unknown in his heart, could it be that what was left between them was really just that one An agreement, she has no feelings for him at all?However, he would still comfort himself, no matter what, she returned to the palace with him, and this was a good start.

Thinking of this, he stretched out a hand to lift the corner of the curtain, the long eyelashes covered his frightening eyes in the afterglow, and he glanced at the carriage behind him, a smile seemed to be drawn on the corner of his lips intentionally or unintentionally. I mean, this time I finally took Li'er and a pair of children back together. Although it was just an agreement with Li'er, as long as Li'er can be allowed to return to the palace, their safety can be guaranteed. He will never let her go, and he doesn't want her to fight alone. Of course, he also has the most important selfishness. As long as she is by his side, he will have a chance to impress her with his sincerity.

In fact, besides the battle with the previous court, he, the emperor, is also facing tough battles within the court at the same time. Because of the deaths of Li'er and Shen Aoyun, Shen Yanlang retired from his old age and returned to his hometown, and no longer interfered with the affairs of the court. Leaning toward the Liu family and the Murong family, the Liu family was the previous Concubine Li's natal family. After the tragic death of Concubine Li five years ago, the power of the Xia family was hindered, and at the same time, their power was boosted because the queen mother said to treat the Liu family well. The Shen family has always occupied a certain position in the court, and after the Shen family lost power, it became more stable.

If this continues, it will bring down Li'er and the child's position in the harem. Now, if he wants to protect his beloved woman and children with all his strength, he must re-establish and strengthen Li'er's power. He must win this battle.

Thinking of this, a bloodthirsty expression flashed in his black eyes. Behind the formation of their forces, there must be people behind the scenes to support them. The people he has to deal with are not that simple. However, as long as Li'er and the child are by his side, he It was as if he had been injected with new life, making him more motivated to fight the next battle. It was time to understand the secret war that had lasted seven years since ascension to the throne...

In the other carriage, Mengli leaned against the back of the chair, her fair little face was covered with a light halo, her temples were flowing, her face was sober, without makeup, her whole person was as elegant and fresh as a plant in a lotus pond in the morning. The lotus, which had just bloomed, looked at the two children sleeping comfortably on the soft pillows, and immediately revealed a gentle expression in their eyes.

She also saw Zi Yechen's actions in those few days, yes, in Qiyang City, he could let go of his status as an emperor, but when he returned to the palace, he was the king of a country, who never lacked women The emperor, in that deep palace, there is also a woman he loves deeply. She also heard that Yunshang gave birth to a son for him in the cold palace, and then handed it over to the barren Yunxi to raise him. That child is also the only one. Prince, but...
