Why do you always rush to join me after awakening?

"Eniang."

"Who allowed you to eat her food? What did mother say?"

Hailan ran forward like crazy and knocked the uneaten white jade square cake in Yongqi's hand to the ground without any regard for mercy.

Then he pretended to slap Yongqi.

But Yongqi didn't hide at all, but just stood there waiting for his mother to teach him a lesson.

However, her raised hand just stopped in mid-air and did not fall.

"What are you holding me for? Let go!"

Wei Yanwan narrowed her eyes slightly and said in a dangerous tone, "Empress Yu, this is not appropriate."

"I'm teaching my own child a lesson, what does it have to do with you? You're committing insubordination!"

"What has Fifth Prince done wrong? If Concubine Yu continues to behave this way, I wouldn't mind reporting the truth to the Emperor and the Empress."

"You are just a humble noble, yet you dare to speak to me like this."

Hai Lan's eyes were cold, and Yong Qi was already used to this look.

But he never thought that someone would defend himself like this.

In order not to embarrass Empress Wei, Yongqi sighed, loosened his grip, and said, "Mother, your son will go back with you."

"Did you hear that? Why don't you ask my son to go back with me?"

Yongqi had already spoken and taken the initiative, so Wei Yanwan couldn't keep him any longer and could only watch Hai Lan lead Yongqi back in a bad mood.

Chun Chan said with some worry, "My Lord, I hope the Fifth Prince won't be abused by Concubine Yu when he returns."

If Wei Yanwan hadn't stopped him, that slap would have landed on Yongqi's face.

Wei Yanwan shook her head and said with certainty, "No, besides the legitimate son, the emperor values ​​the fifth prince the most. If she wants to sit firmly in this position, she has to rely on this son."

After a pause, Wei Yanwan continued, "Even though she has devoted all her heart to Concubine Xian and is unwilling to share any of her own children, for the sake of her good sister having someone to rely on in the future, she must treat them well."

She had discovered in her previous life that Hailan didn't seem to love her children very much.

Otherwise, how could Yongqi's mother be unaware of his health problems?

Yongshou Palace and Yiku Palace are close to each other, so Ruyi can hear the movements here.

But her butt seemed to be welded to the chair and didn't move at all.

After a while, Hai Lan brought Yong Qi to Yiku Palace.

Seeing the two of them, Ruyi pursed her lips and smiled, and her fiery red lips looked really creepy.

Yongqi couldn't help but touch his nose to ease the embarrassment.

"Empress Xian."

"It's Yongqi, come and warm yourself up here, Empress Xian."

Yongqi knew that only if he pleased his mother would she love him a little more.

Sure enough, a smile finally appeared on my mother's face, which had been gloomy just now.

It's just that she wasn't smiling at him.

"It's so cold today, why are you still sitting here with me?"

"It's all because of that little bitch. Someone from her palace came to tell me that Yongqi went to her place. Sister, this Wei Yanwan got the title and was promoted to noble lady. Her tail is almost up to the sky."

Yongqi sat there obediently, counting the hours until he could go back.

Hearing Hailan's words, Ruyi pretended to be surprised and asked, "What? Why would Yongqi go to her palace?"

Ruyi then turned around and looked at Yongqi, who was sitting upright beside her. She said with a hint of reproach, "Yongqi, why did you go to Noble Lady Ling? Your mother doesn't like her. You are indeed at fault for this matter. Apologize to your mother quickly and admit your mistake, so as not to disappoint her."

Yongqi didn't think he had done anything wrong, but in order to stop his mother from going crazy, he could only admit his mistake in a low voice, "Mother, I won't do it again."

Hearing him admit his mistake, Hailan was finally satisfied.

"How could my mother be angry if you came to Empress Xian's palace?"

Ruyi smiled perfunctorily and said nothing.

Yongqi felt sad, but he couldn't say it.

Is he going to tell my mother that Empress Xian...

Let’s put this topic aside for now. After not seeing each other for a few days, Hai Lan has a lot to say to Ruyi.

Ruyi knew this all too well, so she yawned quickly, pretending to be sleepy, and said, "Hai Lan, I'm a little sleepy and want to take a rest."

"Oh, okay, okay sister, then I'll bring Yongqi to see you someday."

Ruyi still pursed her thick lips and nodded, humming nonchalantly, "Hmm."

-

"If you ask me, you should definitely stay out of Fifth Prince's affairs. You just saw it. Concubine Yu looked like she wanted to eat someone."

"Could she really eat me? Don't worry, Sister Meipin, I know what's going on."

Unexpectedly, Meipin threw the melon seeds in her hand onto the plate. She didn't know what Wei Yanwan had said that had irritated her, and she angrily said, "Just forget it. After all, her rank is higher than yours. Don't be so foolish as to try to stop her from doing something as foolish as hitting a rock with an egg."

She still has a sharp tongue but a soft heart.

After being taught a lesson, Wei Yanwan was not angry at all. Instead, she was still smiling while eating melon seeds and teasing Xiaobai from time to time.

In the evening, Hongli came to Yongshou Palace to rest.

Wei Yanwan got the news early and started preparing.

When he came, Hongli seemed to be in a good mood. Seeing this, Wei Yanwan began to pester Hongli to play with her, and the two of them started playing hide-and-seek in the room.

"Hahaha, Your Majesty, I'm here~"

"Don't run! Wait until I catch you!"

"Hahaha, Your Majesty~I'm here~"

"Eh—what is that?"

Hongli almost fell down, but after stabilizing himself, he quickly pulled off the cloth covering his eyes.

A pair of men's boots appeared in his sight.

In an instant, the atmosphere became tense.

Hongli picked up the boots, looked at Wei Yanwan with a gloomy face, and said coldly, "My beloved, what's going on? Why are there men's boots in your room?"

Those boots were obviously not Hongli's size. If they were said to be made for the emperor, the lie would be self-defeating.

After all, she had said before that she knew the emperor's size best.

Wei Yanwan suddenly had an idea and immediately knelt down, explaining, "I made this for my late father. I thought that now that I have a good life, I also want to do something for my family, but..."

"Didn't I allow your family to visit the palace before?"

Wei Yanwan was afraid that the Emperor would say something to ask her family to visit her in the palace, so she continued, "After my mother came to visit me last time, she and her family moved out of the capital, saying that I was already the Emperor's, and that a girl who had left the house was like spilled water, so there was no need to contact them."

Seeing her pitiful appearance, Hongli's expression finally softened and he felt a sense of pity in his heart.

How could he not understand what Wei Yanwan meant? She was just a child without parental love, just like him.

"Don't be sad, my dear. I am here with you."

-

Lin Tian, ​​[No, why didn't I understand what you meant?]

Wei Yanwan, [Oh.]
