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

When she woke up, she couldn't wait to ask,

"Bai Lan, are Jin Yu and Jin Yan back?"

Bai Lan shook her head and handed her a letter.

"This was found in Jinyu's room, take a look!"

Luo Nianxi could not wait to open the piece of paper, and Jinyu's beautiful handwriting instantly came into view.

"I'm sorry, mother. My brother and I left without saying goodbye. It wasn't because we were angry, nor because we knew the truth. We just wanted to go out for a walk and see the outside world. By the way, we wanted to find his parents and my mother. Although we don't know where they are, we believe that we will meet them due to our blood. Don't send anyone to look for us, and don't worry about us. We have grown up and we can take care of ourselves. I wish you and father well! Jinyan, Jinyu wrote this personally!"

Looking at the letter in her hand, Luo Nianxi's hands began to tremble. She raised her hand to her forehead and sighed.

"Bai Lan, pack my things for me."

"Mother, where are you going?"

"I'm tired and want to go out for a walk."

"But...you are the Queen!"

"Prepare some writing material for me. I will ask for a divorce."

"My lady..."

Hearing this, Bai Lan knelt on her knees.

"Your Highness, this is absolutely unacceptable. The harem cannot be left without a master for a day. If you ask for a divorce, and someone else takes your place, it will be difficult for you to come back. Besides, there is also Jinjie. Can you bear to leave him alone in this huge palace?"

When she mentioned Jinjie, her heart skipped a beat. How could she bear to leave Jinjie? However, she had done something wrong to Leng Yiyan. Now, maybe leaving temporarily would save her dignity!

Thinking of this, she breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.

"You are right. Then I will report to the emperor. I will go to Gratitude Temple to pray for the people..."

It is understandable that when the new emperor ascends the throne, the queen goes to the temple to pray for the people.

Bai Lan had no choice but to go to the Yangxin Palace to report the truth.

Leng Yiyan didn't say anything after receiving the news, nor did he stop it.

Ling Yun was a little anxious.

"Your Majesty, Jinyan and Jinyu have left the palace. Your Majesty must be feeling bad. What should we do if she goes to the temple and doesn't come back?"

"Let her be!"

After saying these few words, he slightly closed his eyes. Seeing this, Ling Yun said again:

"Your Majesty, you haven't attended the morning court for three days, and you haven't reviewed memorials for three days. This can't go on!"

"I understand. Notify them and go to court on time tomorrow morning."

"Yes, I will give you the instructions now."

Ling Yun turned and left, and Leng Yiyan sat up from the bed.

After lying down for three days, he felt dizzy, but the pain in his heart still hadn't healed.

He was surprised to see the two children leave, and now Luo Nianxi was also leaving, which made him even more upset.

The next day.

Luo Nianxi took Chuntao, Bailan and some servants out of the palace, leaving Hong Yan in the palace to take care of Jinjie.

Leng Yiyan stood on the observation deck, watching Luo Nianxi walking on the road leaving the palace, feeling indescribable feelings in his heart.

He could understand her adopting the two children, but why did she lie to him? Why didn't she tell him the truth from the beginning?

Could it be that he is that heartless and ungrateful person, and after knowing the truth, will he treat these two children differently?

Or rather, she never trusted him at all.

Jinjie's small body stood at the palace gate, his eyes red with tears.

Hong Yan hurried forward to comfort him.

"Young prince, please don't cry. The queen is going to pray for the people and will be back soon."

Jinjie bit his lip and shook his head.

"My father and mother are angry. Jinyu and Jinyan left. Now my mother is gone too. I am the only one left in this palace."

Hong Yan didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only take him to the palace.

Sitting in the carriage, Luo Nianxi lifted the curtain and looked out. The towering imperial palace was getting farther and farther away from her. She had thought that being away would make her feel relieved, but she found that being away made her heart heavier.

This matter was her fault in the first place, and her escape was very unfair to Leng Yiyan.

But what could she do? She knelt down and begged, but he still wouldn't forgive her, and he didn't even want to look at her.

Perhaps, he no longer loves her. All she can do is to make him lose sight of it and not be bothered by it!

Half a year later

Three months after Luo Nianxi left the palace, Leng Yiyan issued an order asking her to return to the palace, but she refused. She ate vegetarian food and chanted Buddhist scriptures in Gratitude Temple, praying for the people of Pingyang, Leng Yiyan, and her three children.

So, the emperor, in a rage, issued an imperial decree to depose the queen.

Three days ago, when she received the imperial edict deposing the empress, she cried and laughed...

Overnight, she went from being the envied queen to the deposed queen.

Over the past six months, she has been sending people to look for Jinyan and Jinyu, but in the end, nothing was found.

She suddenly felt that her life had been a failure.

She originally thought that she had done a great thing by adopting two children, but in the end she found out that she was just flattering herself.

Now that the children are gone and Leng Yiyan doesn't want her anymore, she can only live this quiet life here alone.

"lady……"

Because of the imperial decree to depose the empress, Bai Lan and Chun Tao changed the way they addressed her.

She raised her calm eyes and looked at them.

"what happened?"

"I heard that a new batch of beautiful girls were sent to the palace, and the emperor has already... favored three of them... and is going to appoint concubines..."

"Snapped!"

The Buddhist beads in her hand fell to the ground, and she breathed a sigh of relief as if nothing had happened.

"Where's Jinjie?"

"The Emperor has issued an edict that the eighth day of next month will be the day for Jinjie's enthronement ceremony."

"That's good. As long as Jinjie is fine, that's enough."

"So what should we do? Are we going to stay here forever?"

"Next month, after Jinjie is crowned as the crown prince and we're sure he's doing fine, we'll leave here."

Bai Lan and Chun Tao looked at her distressedly and nodded.

"My slave understands..."

At this moment, someone called out from outside:

"Are you all lazing around in the house? Come out and work."

The person who said this was Huizhong, the third senior sister in Gratitude Temple. She was a middle-aged woman who was usually in charge of miscellaneous matters in the temple.

Eight years ago, she went up the mountain to become a nun because her husband beat and scolded her. But even so, her husband would come to the mountain to find trouble every now and then, which made her very irritable and she would often beat and scold the young nuns in the temple.

Originally, when Luo Nianxi first came here, she was very respectful to the Queen Luo Nianxi.

However, since she received the Emperor's decree to depose the Queen three days ago, all the servants in the palace had withdrawn to the palace, leaving only Bai Lan and Chun Tao. Since then, her attitude has taken a 180-degree turn.

Hearing Huizhong's voice, Bai Lan pouted in anger.

"She acts so superior all day long. If we don't argue with her, does she think we are afraid of her?"

Chun Tao hurriedly comforted her softly.

"Bai Lan, we are under someone else's roof now and have to bow our heads. Don't be angry and just go out and work obediently!"
