No, I was just a concubine, how did I become the queen?

Li Si'er sat dejectedly on the chaise longue, looking at her son lying at her feet with his face covered in tears.

She watched him perform expressionlessly without saying a word.

This is the flesh that fell from her body, and the only person she has ever loved wholeheartedly besides herself.

But now that something happened, he looked like he was crying, but the anxiety in his eyes could not be concealed at all.

But she could also understand it, as she was a mother of low status and had caused his father to be demoted.

Now that such a big case has been implicated, it is very likely that everyone will die together.

If it were her, she would also be eager to let her mother take the blame alone.

After all, it's better for her to die alone than for her whole family to die? !

But why?

Why should she be born in a humble family? Why should she be at the mercy of others?

She climbed up without dignity, not to be a quiet concubine to a man or a worry-free mother to her son.

She also wants to be like those men in power, stirring up trouble and making things happen at will.

Make those of lower status tremble in fear in front of her, make them give her big gifts and say flattering words to please her.

She actually did it, and after many years of happy and comfortable life, she was happy!

She had anticipated this outcome when she first did it.

If she had not struggled out in this life, she might have died in Hesheli Mansion.

All the good life we have now is earned by her!

However, "I will not commit suicide out of fear of punishment. I will accept any punishment I deserve!"

Li Si'er completely ignored Yuzhu. She admitted what she did, but she would definitely not admit it if it was not her responsibility!

It was clearly a mistake committed by everyone. Just because they are men, are they inherently nobler than women?

You play with women when you have nothing to do, but when something happens you ask women to take the blame?

She just doesn't agree!

Seeing that she really refused to give in, Yuzhu wiped away his tears, said a few dry words of concern, and hurried out.

Longkodo was wiping the sword in his hand. Seeing him hurried in, he asked without even looking up, "Did your mother agree?"

Yu Zhu was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground, shaking his head and stammering, "No...no..."

Although he was not involved, both his father and mother had committed such a serious crime, and their property would be confiscated and their heads would be lost.

Even if he managed to survive, he would be exiled to Ningguta.

Without Tong Jia's protection, his future life...

"Disagree?" Longkodo was expecting this.

How could he not see clearly what kind of person Li Si'er was?

He was a mercenary, ruthless person, just like him.

Asking her to sacrifice herself for her husband and son is wishful thinking.

The reason why he asked Yuzhu to go over and ask this question was to prevent his son from becoming estranged from him in the future.

After all, if he didn't know, then he should be blamed for being cruel and ruthless...

Yuzhu was still crying when she heard a servant from the backyard come in and report, "Master, Li has committed suicide out of fear of punishment!"

He suddenly raised his head and stared at the person who came. The person did not dodge at all in his gaze.

"No...impossible..." Yuzhu wanted to say that she didn't agree just now, how could she agree as soon as he left?

But before the words reached his throat, he swallowed them cleverly.

He turned to look at his expressionless father, and a vague suspicion arose in his heart.

But he didn't have the courage to question it, and instead comforted himself - maybe his mother didn't want him to feel sad?

Maybe she loved him and was willing to die for him as her son.

And it's only a matter of time, after all, everyone will die...

Li Si'er's confession made it impossible to investigate the matter further.

Moreover, the Fourth Master also had to give face to Tong Jia. Not to mention Empress Xiaoyi Ren, even his sister Wen Xian was married into the Tong family.

"It's impossible to confiscate the property. The Tong family is unwilling to hand over even the culprit?" He drank the water in the teacup in one gulp and barely suppressed his anger.

Lin Mingyan knew that he was furious and was afraid that his anger would harm his health, so she quickly advised: "We can all guess whether to hand it over or not. If you can't do it openly, then do it secretly."

The Fourth Master is a very principled person. What he likes most is to slap evidence in your face and make you admit it. That makes him feel great.

But this world is not black and white. If I can't touch you openly, then I will let you suffer in silence.

Longkodo's official title and power were not static, and the head of the Tong family could also be replaced.

"I think Shun Anyan is pretty good. He treats Wen Xian wholeheartedly," Lin Mingyan winked at him. "If you listen to your wife, you'll be rich~"

Since the head of the family, Longkodo, can't do the job and no one else can do it either, then let someone else take over.

Shun Anyan didn’t want to fight for it before because he felt that he would never have children in his life and there was no point in fighting for it.

Now Wen Xian is pregnant. The imperial physician carefully checks her pulse every ten days and there are no more problems as before.

If he doesn't fight for it, won't it give others an advantage?

Of course, the Fourth Master also supported his brother-in-law and went to find someone to discuss what to do.

Lin Mingyan finally had some free time and waved for Rendong to come over. "It's been a while since Wu Yunzhu returned. I wonder if the shock has subsided?"

Honeysuckle suggested, "I heard that the eldest princess has returned to the upper study to study. Your Majesty can go and see if she is doing well or not."

This is also what she must do as a queen, to let everyone know that she cares and loves her children.

Lin Mingyan nodded: "Then tell the imperial kitchen to make some snacks, and I'll go check on the children."

The weather at the end of March was sunny and bright.

Walking on the palace road in the sunshine makes people feel better.

When they arrived at the study, the teacher saw her first, and she waved her hand to signal him not to stop.

So he sat down at the back and watched the children in the front studying seriously.

Wu Yunzhu still sat at the same table with Yaliqi, and both of them listened to the teacher attentively.

Wu Yunzhu behaved even more calmly than before. At least, although she didn't become smarter all of a sudden, she worked harder.

In the past, she would get impatient if she didn’t understand, and when she was impatient she didn’t want to listen, and if she didn’t listen, she would understand even less.

At that time, she didn't think it mattered. After all, she was a princess and didn't have to take the imperial examination, so it didn't matter if she couldn't learn it.

But after this incident and seeing those poor people, she realized how lucky she was.

This learning opportunity is something that most women will never have in their lifetime, or even in several lifetimes.

If you don't cherish it, you will be struck by lightning.

Yaliqi, on the other hand, looked at her thoughtfully, feeling a little conflicted.

She was already ready to hate her elder sister, but now...
