The queen has four sons and six daughters, and she can call the wind and rain

"No."

"I disagree!"

Seeing Yun Zhining so angry that she wanted to pounce on him and bite him to death, Qi Yejing couldn't help but smile.

"Okay, okay, I was just joking with you, why are you like this?"

"You are about to help another woman snatch my daughter. How can I not be excited?"

Yun Zhining became angrier and angrier as she spoke. Her eyes and nose were red, too, like a poor little thing who had suffered a great deal of injustice.

Qi Yejing's heart softened all of a sudden.

"Okay, okay, I was just teasing you just now. I didn't mean to adopt Little Grape under the name of Concubine Qi."

"I don't like such jokes. Don't make them again."

Yun Zhining said this coldly, and asked Qingzhu to put Wan'er and Jun'er into the cradle, then she took Xiao Pu Tao's hand and left.

Qingzhu asked the wet nurse to take good care of the two children and chased after them.

Although they had returned to the main hall, Yun Zhining was still furious when she thought of what Qi Yejing had just said.

Seeing this, Little Grape quickly poured her a cup of tea and comforted her softly.

"Mother, have a cup of tea and calm down."

Yun Zhining took the teacup, but did not drink it. Instead, she put it aside, then hugged Xiao Pu Tao and burst into tears.

"I'm sorry, little Grape. It's all because of your mother's uselessness. She doesn't have a prominent family background or sufficient connections, so you are coveted by others."

"You must regret being my daughter and having a mother like me, right?"

"wrong."

Little Grape carefully held up Yun Zhining's face, stared into her eyes, and spoke word by word.

"Although my mother doesn't have a prominent family background or sufficient connections, I have never regretted having a mother like you."

"When my mother gave birth to me, her position was too low to raise me. She was also worried that she was too weak to protect me, so she reluctantly gave me to Concubine Wende to raise."

"And knowing that Concubine Wende did not take good care of me and made me sick, you risked losing favor to take me back."

"For so many years, you have always taken good care of me. Even after Wan'er and Jun'er were born, you never ignored me. So I really, really like mother."

"But if there is an afterlife, I don't want to be your daughter."

"I want to be your mother."

"I want to find a man with a good family background, status, power and money. Together with him, I want to love you well and make you the happiest girl in Chang'an City."

"It's okay even if you don't marry."

"He and I will support you for the rest of your life."

"Little Grape..."

Yun Zhining burst into tears with a "wow". The more she cried, the sadder she felt. The sadder she felt, the more she wanted to cry, and this formed a vicious circle.

Little Grape just stood there quietly, hugged her gently, patted her back and comforted her.

If she wasn't so small, one would really think she was Yun Zhining's mother.

Yun Zhining cried for a long time, and when she was tired, she fell asleep.

Little Grape brought a blanket and covered her with it.

After going out, I saw Qi Yejing standing outside the door.

Seeing her coming out, he hurried to greet her.

"How is your mother now? Is she okay?"

Little Grape glanced at him and said helplessly.

"Father, I know there are many people in your harem. You need to weigh the pros and cons, and sometimes you ignore personal feelings."

"But I hope you always remember that your mother loves you very much, and you should not do anything to hurt her."

Qi Yejing was silent for a long time, and suddenly sighed.

"Little Grape, how great would it be if you were a prince?"

"This way I can hand over the throne and the country to you, and then travel around the world with your mother."

Little Grape shook her head and chuckled.

"I don't want to be a prince."

"The prince wants to fight for the throne, and after winning the throne, he has to take care of the world, which is very stressful and sometimes even hurts the people he loves and respects the most. I don't want that."

"I just want to be a noble and happy princess, to be with my mother every day, to help her relieve her boredom, to amuse her, to make her happy, and to live a long life."

"That's all."

"So, please don't talk about giving your child to someone else to raise, or adopting him to someone else in the future."

"Everyone thinks that mother is cunning. Since she entered the palace, the harem has lost several concubines every year, and it is more or less because of her. But in my opinion, mother is very fragile. She just wants to do her best to protect herself and the people she cherishes."

"I admit that Concubine Qi and the others suffered persecution from Zhang, and they are all pitiful, but no matter how pitiful they are, they will feel sorry for their fathers, brothers, mothers and sisters, but their mother only has me."

"If even I am not by her side, she will be extremely sad."

"It's really not easy for her to get to where she is today. I hope that Father will show her some mercy and stop forcing her."

Qi Yejing was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly.

Xuanhua Palace.

After listening to Qi Yejing's retelling, Concubine Qi felt very ashamed.

"How can someone as young as Little Grape understand so many principles and have so many theories? Even you are convinced by her?"

"Of course, don't you see whose daughter it is?"

"Of course it was Concubine Yi who gave birth to the child. Why, when did you become a woman and be able to give birth to a child?"

"Qi Yao, you want to piss me off to death, don't you?"

"That's not true."

Concubine Qi shook her head and sighed.

"Now I finally understand why Concubine Wende clung to Little Grape and refused to let go. A daughter like Little Grape is really, really sweet. How wonderful it would be if I could have a daughter like her?"

"pity,……"

Qi Yejing's expression suddenly became depressed.

"Ayao, I'm sorry!"

"If it weren't for me, Ayuan wouldn't have died, and you wouldn't be alone."

"You asked to enter the palace to help me stabilize the court, but I didn't take good care of you and let Zhang Wanru harm you like this."

"If Ayuan is still alive, he will never let me go."

Concubine Qi waved her hand and said calmly.

"Forget it. It's been so many years since the incident happened. There's no point in talking about it anymore."

"Ayuan and I are not meant to be together. It's not your fault."

"As for entering the palace, I was willing to do so. We have been friends for so many years, fighting side by side, going through life and death together. How can I watch you deal with so many old foxes in the court alone?"

"As for Zhang Wanru's matter, I was careless and trusted people too much."

"You have so many things to do every day, how can you take care of everything?"

"Fortunately, Concubine Yi has helped you get rid of Zhang Wanru, and the Zhang family has been completely destroyed. You can relax a little in the future."

Qi Yejing nodded.

"But you helped me so much, but I didn't do anything for you. I feel really bad."

"No, you've already helped me."

"If you hadn't agreed to let Concubine Yi enter the palace, I might have been immersed in sorrow and would not have discovered the truth."

"If it weren't for Little Grape, I wouldn't have been so happy these past few years."

"It's just that I failed Concubine Yi's kindness and hurt her again and again. She will definitely not forgive me, and she will not let Little Grape come to see me in the future."

"Not anymore."

Qi Yejing waved his hand and said confidently.

"Empress Yi has always had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. As long as you apologize sincerely, maintain a positive attitude, persist, and don't get discouraged after being rejected, she will definitely forgive you over time."

As soon as these words were spoken, Concubine Qi's eyes lit up instantly.

"So, you have a solution?"

"of course."

Qi Yejing leaned over and whispered a few words, after listening, Concubine Qi smiled widely.

"Okay, Qi Yejing, you didn't sleep in the same bed with Concubine Yi for so many years in vain."

"Once I have obtained the forgiveness of Concubine Yi and Little Grape, I will definitely thank you."
