The little princess' mind was read, and the court and harem were eating melons

Li Qingyi has done her best to be the queen. If the queen doesn't believe her, how can she use her child's identity to pester him?

Unexpectedly, the queen nodded and agreed.

Li Qingyi was stunned for a moment, and after a while, she asked stupidly, "Mother, do you agree?"

The queen smiled at her, then turned to look at her confidant beside her: "Did you hear what the eleventh princess said? Why don't you do it?"

Afterwards, Li Qingyi was hugged by the Queen again, and they kissed for a while. Then, she was sent out to play again in a daze.

Even when they stood in the small garden of Kunning Palace, Li Qingyi was still a little dazed. She blinked and looked up to ask Fang Xin, "Aunt, did the Queen Mother really send someone to investigate?"

Fang Xin smiled and thought to herself, "She even knows the whole story, and she knows that you don't like Princess Fu'an. If she doesn't take action, she won't be the queen anymore."

However, Fang Xin still helped the Queen explain: "Your Highness, you are always smart and never lie. You said that, even if it sounds a little unbelievable, the Queen will definitely send someone to investigate."

"If this is true, we must naturally find the true royal bloodline."

As for Li Qingyi's clear goal just now, directly saying that he was a nephew instead of a niece, it was actually a revelation...

Aunt Fang Xin smiled: It doesn't matter, anyway, even if the little princess doesn't say it, they all know it. The little princess herself doesn't think she has been exposed, so they just have to pretend that they don't know.

The emperor waited until Li Qingyi left before entering the main hall.

When the queen saw him, she was about to stand up and salute, but the emperor waved his hand and stopped her.

The emperor said: "We are just a couple, so there is no need to be so particular."

The emperor and the empress sat down together. After the palace servants brought the emperor's favorite tea, they left the hall at the empress's signal.

When there were no one else in the palace, the elegant smile on the queen's face disappeared instantly, and she frowned and looked at the emperor: "Your Majesty, how do you think we should deal with the matter of the eldest princess?"

The emperor picked up the teacup and spoke casually, "Didn't you send someone to investigate? If it's really as the system says, there are clues to follow, and the truth will be found out."

"Let alone anything else, it is impossible for Liu Yankang's wife to not know where her daughter is. After so many years, there will always be some traces."

However, no one would have thought about such things before. Even if that lady showed a little concern for Princess Fu'an, others would probably regard it as a sign of trying to curry favor with the powerful and no one would think too deeply about it.

The queen remembered something else and lowered her voice to say to the emperor: "Your Majesty, I accidentally heard some news earlier. At that time, I thought it was nonsense. Now I think it is true."

The two have been married for many years, and they don't really have so many rules in private.

The emperor raised his eyebrows and looked at her.

Queen: "There were rumors before that Madam Liu wanted to marry into the Princess's House, but the Princess wanted to keep Princess Fu'an for a few more years and said that this matter was not urgent, and then there was no further news."

The emperor heard this, paused, thought for a moment, and then understood what was going on.

He sneered: "This stepmother has made a good calculation."

His own daughter took on the identity of a young prince and got the title of a young princess for nothing. When she grew up, he wanted his stolen son to marry the princess.

Firstly, she is the biological mother and will definitely not treat her daughter badly. It will also prevent her daughter from marrying into another family and being controlled by her mother-in-law.

Secondly, since her son had married the most favored princess in the Princess's Mansion, her position in the mansion would be more stable, and she could even use Princess Fu'an to directly suppress her stepchildren.

Thirdly, if this matter is finally exposed, they are already a family, and Liu Yinzhu was raised by her, so it should be a way out, right?

Of course, the first point was added by the empress. The emperor didn't really care about the difference between the mother-in-law and his own mother.

Emperor: "Let's verify this as soon as possible. Even if what the system says is true, we can't just say it without proof. Otherwise, if it gets out, people will inevitably gossip about it."

The queen nodded: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I know what's going on."

The emperor thought for a moment and said, "As for Liu Yinzhu, I just asked about her. She seems to be in poor health. She has been raised in a medicine jar since she was young. I'm afraid she has suffered a lot of grievances in the Liu family."

The Queen frowned upon hearing this and said, "I heard that this child was born prematurely and is weaker than others. If he is not properly taken care of, he may develop a disease."

The emperor sighed when he heard this, "Now he is still Liu Yankang's son on the surface. I can't let the Liu family go just because of him."

Finally, the emperor and the empress discussed it for a while, and it was the emperor who made the final decision, asking the empress to tell the prince to arrange for the imperial physician to go to Liu Yinzhu to do him a favor.

The emperor still had government affairs to attend to, so after saying this, he planned to get up and leave.

The Queen stopped him, paused, and said, "Your Majesty, you brought Yi'er to court again today. I'm afraid the officials have already noticed something is wrong. Yi'er..."

The emperor understood the queen's worries, held her hand and patted it gently: "Zitong, don't worry. Since I dare to bring her over, I have naturally made all the necessary preparations."

"Also, I have arranged for someone to protect Yi'er closely, but I haven't told anyone about this, so don't tell anyone."

The queen felt a little relieved after hearing this.

Seeing that the queen said nothing more, the emperor smiled, turned and left.

After the emperor and his entourage had left, the confidant stepped forward to rub the queen's shoulders and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, those gossipy palace maids..."

The Queen raised her hand to stop her confidant from continuing to speak. She lowered her eyes, picked up the teacup and took a sip, her expression indifferent: "There are some things that the Emperor will pay more attention to if I don't tell you."

Wasn't she angry when she heard about this?

Of course he was angry. First, he was angry that he had failed to protect his daughter enough and had let her hear such ugly words, and she only knew it now.

The second reason was anger. The person behind the scenes had evil intentions. The queen would not believe it unless someone said such words in front of Li Qingyi on purpose.

But no matter how angry the queen was, she couldn't show it at this time. The more generous and considerate she acted in front of the emperor, the more the emperor would feel wronged for her and their daughter.

After hearing this, the confidant quickly understood.

However, the confidant still felt sorry for Li Qingyi: "The little princess is smart, well-behaved and obedient, but there are those villains. I am afraid that the little princess has been wronged and feels sad."

Hearing this, the Queen smiled and looked up at the setting sunlight at the door, her eyes far away: "Don't worry."

Anyone can suffer injustice, except her Yi'er.
