I married the crippled queen and became the most favored queen in the capital

She just felt that Yongyan's voice seemed very far away from her, so far that she couldn't hear it clearly, but she remembered every word of it in her mind.

"Later, we won, but Yonggui and Yonghe died on the battlefield. The Seventh Prince and the Heng Prince said that they would return to the capital in time to report, leaving only a small group of people to continue looking for the prince. Ling Xiao, Su Yi, Ling Yun, and Jiang Hai all stayed behind. He asked us to come back and tell you, please rest assured, they will not come back if they can't find the prince."

At this point, Yongyan and Yongfu had already begun to cry. Luo Nianxi took a few steps back weakly, and Bai Lan came over to support her.

"princess……"

She sat dejectedly on the chair, but her heart was as dead as ashes.

Shunzi prepared the carriage and went forward to ask,

"Princess, are you still going to the palace?"

Things are already here, what's the point of going to the palace?

She waved her hands feebly,

"I'm tired, Bai Lan, help me go inside and rest for a while."

Everyone present knew that she was not tired, she just couldn't accept the news.

She has been supporting the palace alone for many years and raising three children on her own. Now, she is about to see hope, but she hears a result that makes her despair.

How could she accept this?

Leng Yiyan hasn't seen their child yet!

He promised her that he would spend the rest of his life with her, but how come he broke his promise?

She lay on the bed, tears streaming down her cheeks like raindrops, continuously falling until they wet the pillow, with no sign of stopping.

She just lay there in a daze, recalling the scenes when they were together, feeling indescribable feelings in her heart.

As dusk fell, the three children came to her side. Jinyu raised her little hand and helped her wipe away the tears on her face.

"Mom, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying?"

She looked at the three children standing in front of her and couldn't stop her tears from falling.

"Yu'er, mother is fine."

Jinjie also came forward and asked in a low voice,

"Mom, why are you crying? Did something happen?"

Si Jin was one year older after all. He pulled his younger brother and sister and comforted them softly:

"Mom is in a bad mood. Let's stay with her. She will be fine tomorrow."

After saying this, he turned to look at her.

"Mom, am I right?"

Luo Nianxi held back her tears and nodded heavily.

"Si Jin is right. Mom will be well tomorrow. You go find Aunt Bai Lan and ask her to take you to see the lanterns. Mom is tired tonight and wants to rest for a while."

"Mom, we won't go. Let's stay at home with you."

"If mom is not happy, we are not happy either. We are not going anywhere."

"That's right, we want to accompany our mother."

The three children's sensible appearance made her even sadder.

If Leng Yiyan saw how sensible these three children were, he would definitely be very happy.

She raised her hand and touched the faces of the three children one by one.

"Be good, Sijin. Take your brothers and sisters to see the lanterns. Mom is just not feeling well. She will be fine after a rest."

Seeing this, the three children greeted her and went out one by one with their short legs.

Luo Nianxi called out again,

"Bai Lan..."

Hearing this, Bai Lan walked in quickly.

"Princess, did you call me?"

"Call Chuntao and Hongyan, you can accompany the children to see the lanterns. We promised them a long time ago, and we can't let them down."

Bai Lan tightened her lips and nodded reluctantly.

"Okay, then I'll tell the maids in the mansion to come and serve you."

"No, don't let anyone disturb me."

Bai Lan hesitated for a moment and nodded.

"I understand. You take a rest. We will take the children out now."

Leaving this sentence, Bai Lan hurried away. Luo Nianxi sat up from the bed, leaned against the edge, buried her head in her knees, and quietly recalled the little things they had done together before.

What can three innocent children understand?

They had just finished persuading their mother while they were having a great time at the Lantern Festival.

Because there were too many people at the lantern festival, the six of them got separated after a while.

Bai Lan brought Si Jin, Chun Tao brought Jin Yan, and Hong Yan brought Jin Jie.

They were afraid that with so many people around, it would look bad if the three children ran around everywhere, so they had to watch them separately.

The lantern festival tonight is very lively. People on the street, some wearing masks, some holding lanterns, are walking back and forth on the street.

The constant cries of vendors, the laughter of children and the chatting of adults make this place seem particularly lively on both sides of the street.

Si Jin looked at the small lantern in his hand, raised his head and said to Bai Lan who was holding him:

"Aunt Bai Lan, if I give this lantern to my mother, will she be happy?"

Hearing this, Bai Lan sighed distressedly, then nodded.

"Well, your mother is very happy every day because she has you babies."

Now that the prince's life or death is uncertain, what she wanted to say is that from now on, they will have to accompany the princess, but when the words came to her lips, she held them back.

At this moment, there was a sudden burst of lively noise coming from the front, and people around them ran over there. Sijin also pulled Bai Lan's hand, vying to go and watch the fun.

Bai Lan did not dare to relax for a moment. She held Si Jin's hand tightly, and with his help, she squeezed into the group of people in front.

It turned out that someone was performing juggling here, so more and more people gathered around.

Suddenly, a few people wearing masks squeezed out from somewhere. They seemed to do it on purpose and squeezed directly between Bai Lan and Si Jin, separating their hands.

"Four pounds..."

Bai Lan called out, but more and more people rushed over, and no matter how hard she tried to squeeze in Si Jin's direction, she couldn't grab Si Jin's hand again.

"Four pounds..."

Bai Lan was so frightened that she almost lost her soul. She tried to squeeze through the crowd like a madman, but was stopped by several people on purpose and could not move.

"Si Jin, where are you? Si Jin..."

She lost Si Jin, and she still couldn't find Si Jin until it got dark and there were fewer and fewer people around.

She screamed like crazy in the street,

"Si Jin...Si Jin, where are you?"

But even if she shouted until her throat was hoarse, even if she cried until her eyes were swollen, she would never see Si Jin again.

Chun Tao and Hong Yan came over with their children. When they saw Bai Lan crying, they asked anxiously,

"What about four pounds?"

Bai Lan spread her hands, sat on the ground helplessly, and kept shaking her head and crying.

"Lost. There were too many people there and we got separated. He was lost."

"lost?"

Chun Tao rushed to her like crazy and angrily accused:

"How could he be lost? How did you lose him? Why don't you think highly of her?"

"I don't know. I don't know. I didn't mean to do that."

Bai Lan was at a loss, crying and shaking her head in self-blame.

"I really didn't mean to do that. There were so many people there, and a group of people rushed over from nowhere and separated us. When I went to look for him again, he was gone."

Hong Yan looked around anxiously, but there was no one around to watch the fun, let alone Si Jin.

"What should we do? Let's go back and tell the princess."

Bai Lan slapped her head hard.

"I am so stupid. Why am I so stupid? What should I do? What should I do?"
