TV Series: When the Villain Chooses to Stand by

Yonglian stretched out his hands to protect his surroundings to prevent his brother from stepping on empty air, and turned his head to avoid the green fruit that he stuffed into his mouth.

"It's not cooked yet and it's sour. I won't eat it."

Yong Zhang didn't mind. He wiped it and put it in his mouth. He didn't spit it out even though he grimaced at the sour taste. He just liked the taste.

I carefully recalled what happened in the afternoon.

"Hiss~ We agreed to go boating together this afternoon. Jingyu wore new clothes today and didn't want to get wet, so he painted on the shore, and then..."

"Oh, I remember now. Jingluo was so excited when she landed that she accidentally flipped the boat over. The splashing water soaked Jingyu's album."

Thinking of this, Yong Zhang became worried, "Jing Yu didn't get angry at that time, will they quarrel?"

"No, Jingluo has already paid the price. Let's go. It's too late. Go back to bed. We have to get up early to study tomorrow."

The next day during the break, Yonglian came to Langya and told her what happened with Yongzhang.

"Empress Dowager, who do you think is behind this? What does that person want to do?"

A dark light flashed in Langya's eyes and she snorted coldly.

She continued fanning Yonglian as she watched him slowly pick out the dried fruits that he didn't like.

"Who do you think it will be?"

"I just can't understand. You have a very good relationship with all the other ladies, and they take good care of me. There's no reason for you to do this."

"Didn't you ever doubt Chunpin?"

Yonglian was stunned at first, a look of confusion appeared on his face, and then he shook his head firmly.

"Your son trusts his own feelings. Concubine Chun is not that kind of person."

Yonglian lowered his head in self-blame after he finished speaking, "Empress Dowager, actually... I once doubted Concubine Chun's intentions."

"The struggle for power and interests in history books has always been bloody and cruel. Judging from their status, Erchen and Yongzhang are naturally opposed."

"Just like how those palace maids seduced Yong Zhang, as long as there's no one else besides me, he'll be the only heir. The newborn baby isn't even born yet, so age is the biggest advantage."

"This temptation is too great. Those forces in the court that are hostile to the Fucha family do not want to see me valued by the emperor."

Langya did not interrupt him, but listened quietly.

The royal children are naturally extremely sensitive to politics. In modern society, at the age of six, they would still be singing nursery rhymes in elementary school.

He already knew very well what he would face in the future, and he could analyze his situation so clearly.

"I observed for a long time and arranged for some people to investigate privately. The final result is the same as expected. I should be relieved, but I am not happy and feel a little ashamed!"

Langya touched her son's round head soothingly.

She was very pleased that Yonglian did not suspect his close relatives for the sake of personal gain, nor did he lose his basic vigilance because of his good relationship.

"Yonglian, you don't have to feel guilty about this. It's right to be cautious when it comes to survival."

"Relationships between people are constantly changing. You may have grown up together as brothers, but as time passes and you grow up, no one can guarantee that the relationship will remain the same."

"You didn't blindly believe these things, but instead made your own observations and judgments, and finally sought verification. This is already great."

"Is that right?"

Yonglian looked at Langya with sparkling eyes. He was in a particularly good mood because of his mother's affirmation.

"Of course, Yong Zhang has experienced many temptations, even more than you. Too many people want to stir up his ambitions to achieve their own goals."

"He must have thought about it for a long time before he could confess to you. A very important reason is that you behaved very well and gave him enough care and trust. Without an existential crisis, the growth of ambition would be limited."

After listening to this, Yonglian nodded heavily, he understood.

"vomit!"

I was so engrossed in my thoughts just now that I accidentally ate a dried fruit.

He immediately spat it out after being soured, frowning, and said rather plaintively: "When I grow up, I will definitely eradicate all the sour grapes."

Langya was amused by his behavior and patted him lightly with her fan.

"Look at what you're saying. How can I possibly grant you everything you wish for? This is meant for your sister. You took the wrong one and you're complaining?"

"You saw it all, why didn't you remind me?"

"Is it okay if I did it on purpose?"

"Mother is so narrow-minded...I really didn't mean to bite you with the bitter orange last time. It's because it looks so much like an orange!" Since there was no one else in the room, Yonglian had no pressure to act coquettishly.

"Eat quickly, who told you to move so fast?"

"After the results come out, do you want to know the answer?"

Yonglian thought about it. This result might be very unexpected, but… "Even though I still need the Empress's protection, I still want to know who the enemy is."

"Good~"

Langya looked at the cute dumpling in front of her with loving eyes. This was a kind of precocity that was different from the world of immortal cultivation.

But they are also full of vitality.

Soon Langya found the mastermind behind all this.

Looking at the confession in her hand, Langya's eyes were filled with murderous intent. She still didn't give up on the empress dowager who hadn't appeared for a long time.

"Master, the Queen Mother is too cruel. Our eldest prince and princess are both her grandchildren. You have no grudge against her, so why would she want to kill such a child?"

Su Lian was shocked. Everything had been going smoothly since they entered the palace, but this incident suddenly woke her up.

This is in the imperial palace, a place where conflicts have been going on since ancient times.

But she didn't understand. It was one thing for the concubines to fight for the favor of offspring, but the empress dowager, who was already the winner, would always interfere.

There is no niece of the empress dowager in the harem, so she has no reason to murder the royal heir.

"Who knows what this person is thinking? Since she's unwilling to be treated like a mascot, let her live her life differently."

Langya raised her eyes and looked in the direction of Changchun Fairy House, and had already arranged the next scene for the Queen Mother in her mind.

……

"Something bad has happened to the Empress. News has come in that the Empress Dowager was on a boat tour on the lake today and somehow fell in. The imperial physician has already passed away."

Zhao Yita came in shouting all the way, his voice was as anxious as he could be, but the smile on his face could not be hidden.

The young master is their hope for the future, and the Queen Mother is reaping what she sows.

"Come on, let's go over and take a look."

Langya brought her people to Changchun Fairy House in a hurry. When she arrived, no one else was there. As soon as she entered the door, she heard the undisguised wailing from inside.

"Doctor Qi, is the Queen Mother seriously ill? Why is she in so much pain?"

Qi Ru looked at the imperial doctors around him and had to answer reluctantly.

"To answer the Queen, the Queen Mother fell into the lake and choked. Since she was rescued in time, that's not a big deal. The more serious thing is that she hit a rock in the lake and broke her leg."

"For some reason, the Empress Dowager is in severe pain. We have used frankincense and white peony root to relieve the pain, but it still has no effect."

Several imperial doctors were at a loss as to what to do. The empress dowager had already treated the wounds and used painkillers and tranquilizing soup, but she still cried out in pain.

He was screaming so miserably that they really had no idea what to do.
