Farming with kids: My deceased husband returns and I spoil him rotten.

Zhuge Tian also received the news and rushed to find Shang Qing.

"You should know about the King's explanation for Gu Yu, right? What exactly happened? How could the King possibly explain for Gu Yu?"

No matter how hard Zhuge Tian thought about it, he couldn't figure it out. No matter what he thought, the King would not explain it to Gu Yu.

Shang Qing personally poured Zhuge Tian a cup of water and said softly, "Who told you that only the King can explain? Can't you impersonate the King to explain?"

Zhuge Tian looked up at Shang Qing, his eyes widening instantly, and said in a trembling voice, "What do you mean by that?"

"High Priest, didn't you already guess it? Since you guessed it, why do you make me repeat it?"

Shang Qing slowly stood up, looked up at him, and said, word by word.

Zhuge Tian had some suspicions, and he asked incredulously, "Did the Queen help you? Why? Aren't the Queen and the King very close?"

“When you first raised this issue, I said that seeing is not necessarily believing. What you think is good might be poison to her.”

Shang Qing continued, "Alright, since you've already guessed it, then do me a favor. I need to bring the Queen out, and you go prepare the carriage to send us away."

"The Queen wants to go with you? Why?" Zhuge Tian asked.

"These are the terms of our exchange. The Queen doesn't want to stay here; she simply can't survive here. You just need to help her. As for the rest, let the Queen explain it to you."

After Shang Qing finished speaking, he left, intending to go to the palace to fetch the Queen.

……

When the Queen heard that the matter had reached the King's ears, she was not too surprised. After all, she did not intend to keep it a secret forever, and when she did it, it was not without flaws.

Now she's not worried about the king coming to cause her trouble at all; what she's worried about is whether Shang Qing will show up and whether she'll change her mind.

She had packed everything and was just waiting for Shang Qing to come and take her away from here.

Just as the Queen was waiting anxiously, she suddenly saw Shang Qing enter from outside, and he did so openly and brazenly.

Shang Qing bowed to the Queen: "Greetings, Your Majesty."

The Queen nodded to her, then pulled her aside and asked in a low voice, "Why did you come in like this? I thought you would come in quietly."

"I have no martial arts skills and can't get in quietly. Let's not chat anymore and leave here quickly, or we won't be able to leave soon."

Shang Qing also grasped the Queen's hand and spoke very seriously.

The queen wanted to leave as soon as possible, and upon hearing her words, she nodded quickly. The two of them then decided to leave openly and honestly.

But they never expected an uninvited guest to appear.

"Queen, Lady, where are you two planning to go?"

The king's illegitimate son suddenly appeared in the palace, abandoning all manner of etiquette, and simply looked at them indifferently.

The Queen held Shang Qing's hand, as if that would give her strength.

"Do we need to tell you where we're going? You're nothing but a servant. How dare you ask about your master's affairs? Get out of my way."

Since she's leaving anyway, and even if she can't leave, she won't have a good ending, so why be afraid of these people?

Shang Qing looked at the Queen in surprise, not expecting the Queen to say such a thing.

The illegitimate child wasn't angry. Instead, he smiled and said, "I have no right to interfere, but Father has the right. You two should explain to Father later."

Shang Qing stared at the illegitimate son and asked, "It seems you and the King are planning to reveal your identity? You dare to openly call him Father."

The illegitimate son's expression immediately darkened, and he frowned slightly: "This matter has nothing to do with you. You should think about how to explain your sudden appearance here to your father."

How I explain it is none of your business.

Shang Qing released the Queen's hand and approached the illegitimate son step by step, smiling as he asked, "But you are indeed quite bold to speak to the Queen like that."

"Tell me, if the king knew what you were like just now, would he punish us or you? You are a smart man, you should know that the king still cares about the queen."

"After all, if your identity is revealed, his reputation will be ruined. The idea of ​​'one love for life' is a complete joke, don't you think?"

Shang Qing had already walked behind the illegitimate son, and while they were talking, she reached out and grabbed his hands, subduing him.

"Queen, go find some rope, we'll tie him up."

Shang Qing looked up at the Queen and began to speak.

When the Queen saw Shang Qing's actions, she nodded quickly and went to the inner room to find a rope.

The illegitimate son hadn't expected Shang Qing to make this move; he had underestimated her. He struggled desperately, determined to break free, but unfortunately, he underestimated Shang Qing's strength.

"Stop struggling. Although I'm not very strong, I can restrain you like this without using much strength. Don't move."

Shang Qing threatened him, "If you make me unhappy, I might kill someone in anger. You are the king's only son, and you don't want to die before you even become king, do you?"

Upon hearing this, the illegitimate child immediately became much more obedient.

Shang Qing sneered inwardly.

After the Queen took out the rope, Shang Qing tied up the illegitimate child, who remained motionless and seemed to be cooperating perfectly.

"What did you say to him? Why was he so cooperative?"

The Queen was quite surprised by his reaction, so she asked him a question.

Shang Qing smiled and said, "It's nothing. Let's hurry up and leave. Once this problem is solved, no one should be able to stop us. Let's get out of here quickly."

With that, Shang Qing and the Queen left the palace.

……

Zhuge Tian still hadn't grasped the meaning of Shang Qing's words, but he still came to the palace to pick them up.

Not long after, Shang Qing came out with the Queen.

Zhuge Tian initially thought Shang Qing was talking nonsense, but after seeing the Queen come out with her, he knew that what she said was true, but he didn't say a word.

After Shang Qing and the Queen boarded the carriage, he didn't say anything. Instead, he drove away from the palace gate on his own initiative.

……

The king guessed that the queen had impersonated him to write the edict, after all, his previous coma had already made him suspicious, but he did not suspect the queen.

But reality slapped him hard in the face; it was all the queen's doing.

The king came to confront the queen in a huff. As soon as he entered, he shouted inside, "Queen, explain yourself! What exactly happened?"

But upon entering, there was no one else except the illegitimate child who was tied to a chair.
