What the hell!

She had no idea that the two brothers were doing something weird in secret.

However, he was outnumbered, so Hu Luanfei walked into Fengyi Palace surrounded by several palace maids.

Yuling dismissed everyone and left Hu Luanfei alone in the hall.

The moment she left, Yuling fell to her knees in front of Hu Luanfei, grabbing her skirt, tears in her eyes.

Hu Luanfei was confused.

Yuling cried with tears in her eyes: "I know that my status is low and I can't compare to the Empress Dowager and the Empress. The Emperor asked me to live in Fengyi Palace. No matter how stupid I am, I know that he intends to use me as a shield. Sister Luanfei, please save me."

Hu Luanfei helped her up while clutching the handkerchief tightly. "To be honest, the emperor's feelings for you are obvious to all. I believe he will not let you fall into danger. If you are really worried, I will go to the imperial court to ask for you. But you have to wait for this day. Tomorrow is the Queen Mother's birthday. Messengers from all directions will enter the capital. Everyone is busy. I can't disturb the emperor at this critical moment."

"I'm glad my sister is willing to help me. I'm just afraid..."

"The Queen Mother has arrived——"

Yuling shrank back, hiding behind Hu Luanfei in a terrified manner, "Sister, it's my cousin who's here!"

"If you keep kneeling, the Queen Mother will blame me. Don't be afraid or panic. Stay calm. She is your cousin, not a man-eating beast."

While persuading him, he helped him up.

The two knew very well the purpose of the Queen Mother's visit to Fengyi Palace. She could no longer hide her pregnancy. If they did not win over Yuling, the news that the Queen Mother was defiled the harem would spread throughout Daqian.

The reason why he came today was simply because Yuling happened to move into Fengyi Palace, and he happened to meet the Queen coming out of the Buddhist temple, so he took the Queen along.

This was not the first time Hu Luanfei had seen the queen. He had seen her several times before when he was serving Qi Sili. Her eyebrows were as cold and clear as snow, her face was beautiful and her skin was fair. She was like a spiritual flower in the Tianshan Mountains that could not be offended.

In front of the ministers, the empress, the model mother of the country, had another face, magnanimous, kind, and always smiling.

The same is true today.

She walked past the Queen Mother, came over, held Yuling's hand, and asked about her well-being, as kind as an older sister next door.

Yuling was extremely frightened, her face turned pale and she looked at Hu Luanfei helplessly, the moisture in the corners of her eyes condensed into tears and then quickly melted away.

Hu Luanfei has not made any move yet.

The Queen Mother was worried that the Queen would scare the baby in Yuling's belly, so she stopped the Queen's enthusiasm and said, "Yu Guiji has been traveling so long, the Queen should be careful."

The queen smiled and said she was rude.

It was the first time that Hu Luanfei saw the Queen personally help someone to take a seat, and the other person was a concubine of low rank.

Yuling felt like she was sitting on pins and needles. She wanted to get up for a moment, but was held down.

The queen narrowed her eyes slightly, and the corners of her lips raised up a beautiful arc, kind and gentle, "According to the relationship, I am also your distant cousin. When sisters meet, don't be too unfamiliar, or you will be laughed at."

"Cousin?" She stared at the strange face in front of her, dazed, as if trying to find some recognition from this face.

However, the person in front of me was terrifyingly unfamiliar.

Yuling shook her head in a daze, "I can no longer recognize my cousin's face."

While Hu Luanfei was watching the show with great interest, he suddenly felt a little warmth in his hands.

Yuling moved closer intentionally, and the fingertips under her long sleeves hooked her five fingers back and forth.

When they looked at each other, they were shocked to see that Yuling's pretty face gradually turned pale, and many beads of sweat fell from her temples. She seemed to be in pain and couldn't control it, but she tried hard not to get angry.

The Queen's eyes were burning as she talked about all sorts of things. Her attitude of talking freely even though she knew the situation was serious irritated Hu Luanfei.

Yuling sat back in her chair, but this time, the person standing next to her was Hu Luanfei.

There was a faint unpleasant smell in the air, and with every breath, the air mixed with musk rushed into the nostrils.

The sachet carried by the queen had a strong scent of sandalwood, which concealed the musk that was harmful to pregnant women.

Hu Luanfei, who was used to the scent of green grass, frowned and was glad that Qi Siliao had popularized musk, otherwise she would not be able to distinguish it.

With the Queen by her side, Yuling felt more and more uncomfortable.

Hu Luanfei secretly mixed some space spring water into the tea and gave it to Yuling to drink.

Under the effect of the spiritual spring, Yuling's pain turned into ashes and dissipated, and her body felt much more relaxed.

"Sister Luanfei, my belly was so tight just now..." Yuling stroked her belly with both hands, with panic in her eyes.

Hu Luanfei moved forward to block the Queen's outstretched hand and sighed, "Relax, don't be nervous."

Yuling opened her eyes and shed tears, "I am so scared living in Fengyi Palace."

His voice trembled slightly, and his eyes glanced at the Queen from time to time.

"Fengyi Palace is the residence of the Empress. It is really inconsiderate of the Emperor to arrange for you to live there." Hu Luanfei turned around and knelt before the Empress. "Your Majesty is the Emperor's wife. When the Emperor makes mistakes, I hope that Your Majesty can remind him more."

Standing in this gorgeous and cold palace, the queen was dressed in simple and elegant clothes, and she no longer looked like the mother of a country. She looked at Hu Luanfei and said with a smile: "What Princess Zhan said is true. But I have lived in the Buddhist temple for a long time, and the emperor has never informed me of any decision he made. Even if Fengyi Palace was mine before, as long as the emperor is not satisfied, it is only a matter of time before the owner changes. Princess Zhan and Yu Guiji don't worry, I am devoted to Buddhism, and who is in charge of the harem has nothing to do with me."

Hu Luanfei frowned, his mind full of questions, but his face remained calm, "Now that we have come to this, what about Fengyi Palace..."

"It's just a palace. It makes no difference who lives in it." The Queen Mother then walked over slowly, took advantage of the situation to push Hu Luanfei away, and became intimate with Yuling. But Hu Luanfei couldn't get angry and even served tea to the two of them.

Everyone knew the Queen Mother's thoughts, so the Queen found an excuse and took the opportunity to send Hu Luanfei away.

The huge Fengyi Palace is full of people newly assigned by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and there is no one trustworthy around Yuling.

Outside the corridor, Hu Luanfei did not dare to walk too far, fearing that the Queen Mother would harm Yuling, so he sat on the corridor, with no intention of appreciating the newly moved potted plants in Fengyi Palace.

After about a quarter of an hour, the Queen finally arrived and asked, "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Not really, she was just curious as to why the Queen asked her out.

Hu Luanfei wanted to stand up and salute, but the queen exempted her from the request and went straight to the point. She took off the purse from her waist and stuffed it into her hand. "You know what's in the purse. My request is not high. As long as the queen dowager aborts the baby, Yu Guiji can sit firmly on the throne of queen."

This is what Hu Luanfei is confused about.

"Which daughter of a noble family doesn't enter the palace for the glory of her family? The higher she climbs, the more favored her family will be. The Queen's behavior this time is obviously going to destroy the family's glory and make her an unfilial daughter."

The Queen lowered her eyes and sneered, "How can anyone understand the pain in the hearts of girls from noble families like us? We sacrifice ourselves for the honor of our family. When one girl dies, another one comes along, ready to bloom. One after another, they pass away. For a big family, girls are only useful for this. They enter the palace to compete for favor for power and face. Who would care whether the girl is happy or not?"

Hu Luanfei raised his head and glanced at the queen, surprised that such a frosty and cold face could reveal an expression called "sadness".
