Chapter 93 The Queen's Help to Prince Yong is Conditional

Eunuch Gu quickly bowed to the Queen and said, "This old servant pays homage to Her Majesty, may Your Majesty live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."

Gu Yuan hadn't saluted the Queen for a long time, and he felt his tongue was a little numb.

He suddenly remembered what Si Yan asked him to tell the Queen when he left the palace last time.

Could it be that the Queen figured it out after hearing those two sentences?

Qi Ziyu was stunned for a moment before bowing to the Queen: "Your son pays respects to your mother."

"Get up." The queen stepped forward to help Qi Ziyu up, looking him up and down, and tears couldn't help but fall.

Although Prince Yong was not her biological son, he was raised in her palace since childhood.

Although her feelings for the child were not as strong as hers for the prince, she still felt heartbroken every time she thought of him.

Qi Ziyu's eyes were slightly red, and he looked at the queen and asked, "How has your mother been these past few years?"

"Very good, mother is always well." The queen wiped the corners of her eyes, her face looked good and her demeanor was dignified. "I heard that your father was ill, so mother came to see him."

Eunuch Gu was surprised. Half a year ago, His Majesty was so seriously ill and wanted to see the Queen, but the Queen did not come. Yet today, she took the initiative to come and see His Majesty.

The Queen's gaze fell on Si Yan, who bowed to her and said, "Your servant Si Yan greets Her Majesty the Queen."

"Okay, okay." The queen looked at Si Yan calmly without saying anything more.

She smiled and said to Qi Ziyu, "Queen Mother, go see your father first. We can talk later if we have anything to say."

"Yes." Qi Ziyu said goodbye respectfully.

The corridor of the palace is deep and long, with towering palace walls standing on both sides, giving people an invisible sense of oppression.

At this time, all the court officials had left. Occasionally, palace maids and eunuchs passed by on the road, but they were also quiet and silent.

As they walked side by side, Qi Ziyu suddenly asked softly, "Has Ah Yan met the Queen?"

"No, I just asked Eunuch Gu to tell the Queen that he would go see her once Prince Yong was better."

Suddenly, Qi Ziyu understood everything.

Qi Ziyu sighed sincerely: "Ayan's thoughts are so deep and far-sighted. Ayan's insight into people's hearts is really admirable."

After the crown prince was deposed, the queen had not left the house for five years, but A Yan was able to let her out.

A Yan asked Eunuch Gu to pass a message to the Queen, which was actually asking the Queen whether she wanted to seize this opportunity to turn things around.

"Your Highness, you are too kind." Si Yan said calmly, "The Queen doesn't really want to spend the rest of her life in seclusion. She has just been waiting for the right opportunity. If I am not mistaken, the Queen knows everything that has happened in the capital recently, and even what happened in the palace today."

Si Yan said in a gentle tone, "The Queen is a smart person. She knows that the time she has been waiting for has come."

The Queen had no hope of turning things around before, but now that she saw the Emperor beginning to suppress the Xin family and Prince Yong's Mansion and Situ Mansion becoming tough, she knew her chance had come.

In fact, Si Yan contacted the Queen not because he valued the forces behind the Queen, as those forces were dispensable.

The most important thing is that the queen can do a lot of things in the palace, and there are also many things she can stop the imperial concubine from doing.

"Prince Yong should know that the Queen's help to Prince Yong is conditional." Si Yan said.

"I know." Qi Ziyu knew that his mother loved the prince the most, and she came out now for the prince.

Si Yan analyzed, "If Prince Xin ascends the throne, the Crown Prince will undoubtedly die based on the actions of Concubine Xin and the Prime Minister. However, if Prince Yong has a chance to inherit the throne, the Crown Prince will have a glimmer of hope. The Queen is well aware of this."

Qi Ziyu remembered what Si Yan once said, "No matter how deep-rooted a tree is, it can be uprooted." At that time, he just thought Si Yan was too naive.

Now that the Minister of Punishment who was attached to the Prime Minister's Office has been demoted, the Minister of War has been executed, and the Chief Censor He Xuan has been beaten to death on the spot, he finally realized what kind of confidence and confidence this girl has.

A Yan seemed to be doing nothing, but in fact he had already taken control of the situation.

Qi Ziyu thought of what happened in the court today and couldn't help but say, "In fact, the King of Yan doesn't necessarily want the life of the Minister of War as a scapegoat."

"Yes, the King of Yan helped us out." Si Yan's tone was gentle. "The King of Yan needed a Daxuan that could coexist peacefully with Yan State. Therefore, he didn't mind helping Daxuan clean up the court."

At today's court meeting, two important branches were suddenly lost from the big tree of Prime Minister Xin Guifei.

Although all the civil and military officials in the court submitted to the Xin family, they were not stupid. Now that Prince Yong's power was rising, sooner or later someone would join.

Jia Zhongchun's behavior today will also affect the choices of court officials, provided that they protect Jia Zhongchun and his family.

"I have mobilized the people of the Blood Shadow Sect to protect Jia Zhongchun's family."

"Ayan and I think the same thing." Qi Ziyu said with a smile.

Jia Zhongchun was the first person to break away from the Prime Minister's party and join their faction. If anything happened to Jia Zhongchun, the court officials would not dare to offend the Prime Minister's Mansion.

But if Jia Zhongchun is safe and sound, the court officials will see the strength of the Situ Mansion and the Prince Yong Mansion and will reconsider their positions.

Si Yan looked at Qi Ziyu gently: "The Imperial Concubine and the Prime Minister's party suffered heavy losses today, and their reaction will be even greater. Prince Yong must also be careful at all times."

"Don't worry, Ah Yan. Prince Yong's Mansion is full of experts. It's impossible for them to assassinate me."

"That's good." Si Yan nodded.

Qi Ziyu was silent for a moment: "Uncle Wu Wang also spoke for us today. I am afraid that he will be murdered. I will send someone to protect him."

Si Yan wasn't worried about that: "The Fifth Prince has been keeping a low profile and has made preparations. Prince Yong has sent people to keep an eye on Prince An's mansion. There's no need to worry too much."

"I understand, Ayan."

The two of them walked out of the palace, and Si Yan said goodbye to Qi Ziyu: "Your Highness, please go back first. I'll go to Yayue Pavilion. Your Highness can also visit Yayue Pavilion when you are free."

"I'm free today." Qi Ziyu said with a smile.

"Well, I'll take the prince to meet Master Boya of Yayue Pavilion."

Qi Ziyu chuckled: "I was just teasing Ah Yan, ahem... I'll go back home first."

Yan Longyi came to Shangjing, and this girl must meet Yan Longyi.

In the palace, Imperial Noble Consort Xinya heard about what happened in the court today and was so angry that her face turned ashen. "Prepare the carriage. I want to go to Prince Chen's Mansion."

Too many things happened in the palace today, and she couldn't bear it anymore. She had to go to Wei Shu to discuss it.

A carriage sped out of the palace and headed straight for Prince Chen's residence. Upon hearing the servant's report, Prince Chen hurried forward and asked, "Mother, why did you think of coming to see me?"

"Doesn't your mother come to see you often?" The Imperial Concubine smiled at Prince Chen.

Qi Shuoyu couldn't help but complain: "What? Every time my mother comes, she discusses things with Mr. Wei."

"Nonsense! Mother came here mainly to see you." The Imperial Concubine held her son's hand and said affectionately, "Why has Yu'er lost so much weight recently?"

Qi Shuoyu stamped his feet and said bitterly, "Mother, whenever I think of Si Yan bullying me at the border and then making me suffer in front of the emperor after returning, I can't swallow this anger."

The Imperial Concubine helped her son straighten his clothes and said gently, "Didn't Mother tell you to keep your composure?"

"How long shall I endure this?" Qi Shuoyu said with clenched fists.

I never thought that he, the great King of Chen, would be bullied by the daughter of a prime minister. It would be laughable if people told others about it.

The Imperial Concubine paused for a moment and said, "Just wait until your brother ascends the throne."

"How long will it take?" Qi Shuoyu said angrily.

"It's almost there." The Imperial Concubine responded and said to Qi Shuoyu, "Go and call Mr. Wei. Mother has something important to discuss with him alone. No one is allowed to approach."
