Yan Xuehuai was not wrong. When he saw the memorial sent by the Minister of the Honglu Temple, the emperor and the prince were all surprised.

What was shocked was that the regime of the Fan Kingdom was so fragile, and what was surprising was that the reason for this coup was so unique.

Emperor: "A person with such a corrupt character will definitely cry for the people, let alone the country."

Crown Prince: "Thinking of that kind of person, he is not clear about the ways of Confucius and Mencius, and his martial arts do not understand the opportunities of Sun Wu, and he specializes in power and dominates and ranks in a high position. How can he have some teachings? Such barbarians and ethics and rituals will be destroyed. If this continues, the country will not be in power."

The father and son sighed to each other, and the emperor said to the prince: "When those foreigners return to their country, bring them more books and classics so that those foreigners can understand what Confucius and Mencius' ways are, and what the king and ministers are."

The prince complained in his heart that those people must be able to understand. Does the father still want Xiaoqi's wife to go on missions with him? Xiaoqi's wife may be able to agree, but Xiaoqi will definitely not agree.

The emperor seemed to have noticed his wishful thinking, and he sighed, what should he do, and he remembered his youngest son again.

He was wrong. He shouldn't have agreed to Xiaoqi and asked him to run to the border.

The emperor was in a depressed mood. He had not seen the queen for some days.

Since he found out that the wet nurse who killed the fifth brother was bought by a beauty he had favored, he has never touched a woman other than the queen again.

At first it was hatred, then it was fear, and then it was no longer interested.

In the years surrounded by wolves, the only person who could make him trust was the queen.

The queen accompanied him all the way through the wind and rain. They were not only husband and wife, but also comrades-in-arms.

The emperor felt that the prince was still growing too slowly. If the prince could hold on to the situation, he could give up the throne and become the emperor himself. Then he would accompany the queen to walk around and take a look. The queen would not think too much. For the sake of the children's affairs, he would not even be willing to see him.

When the emperor looked at the prince again, he felt that the prince was not so pleasing to him.

The prince didn't understand, but the father looked at him with disappointment.

What did he do to disappoint his father?

The emperor thought for a while and said to the prince: "I heard that you asked the Yan girl to go to the Eastern Palace?"

"Yes, my son asked the princess to summon her to the palace and speak." The prince replied.

"I have arrived at the Eastern Palace, why don't he let him see your queen? Your queen likes that girl very much. Maybe your queen will be able to show off her beauty when she sees her. Oh, as the eldest son, do you want me to remind you of such a small matter?"

Prince...

Who said at the beginning that I would not disturb my mother, so as not to be careful and remind my mother of Xiaoqi?

Forget it, confrontation is impossible, and the prince can only go back to the East Palace.

The next day, people from the Eastern Palace came to pick up Yan Xuehuai again. Yan Xuehuai thought that the crown princess was going to see her, but she did not expect that this time she was sent to the queen's harem.

Yan Xue's heart was raised. She heard from the Crown Princess that the queen had already claimed to be ill and had not seen outsiders for many days.

Yan Xuehuai thought she would see the haggard queen with tears on her face, but she didn't expect that the queen was practicing calligraphy calmly.

But when the queen raised her head, Yan Xuehuai still saw the worry in her eyes.

"Come on, see how this letter from this palace is written?" The queen smiled and waved at her.

Gu Lu

Yan Xuehuai is very familiar with the Queen's calligraphy. She has a copybook and has practiced it, although she is not apt to behave.

But the words in front of her were different from what she had seen. Yan Xuehuai didn't understand them, but it could also be seen that this words were more vigorous and powerful than those in the Queen's copybook.

"This is different from what you wrote before." Yan Xuehuai never pretended to understand. What she could see was that the font was different. As for what was before and what was now, she didn't know.

The queen nodded and said to Yan Xuehuai: "Look, is it good for me to use this word to write a tribute to Chai Xiu?"

Chai Xiu?

Yan Xuehuai thought about it, and then she remembered who Chai Xiu was.

The name of King Fu is Chai Xiu.

Yan Xuehuai looked serious: "You are the mother of a country. He is not worthy of letting you write a tribute. He can't bear it and will be frightened. If he is in the nine springs, he is frightened and jumps out of the oil pan, what should he do?"

The queen was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly, and then looked at the letter she wrote. She thought it was really ridiculous, so she laughed so hard that she leaned back and forth.

The eunuch beside him was startled. They had never seen the queen laugh so much... so unruly.

While stroking the corners of your eyes with your fingers, the Empress said to Yan Xuehuai, "You child, my wrinkles are all laughing out."

Yan Xuehuai thought to herself, you also had wrinkles.

But he said: "Empress, I'll make you a mask."

"Face, mask?" The queen was puzzled and looked at Ouyang Shanggong beside her. Seeing that Ouyang Shanggong was also confused, the queen asked, "What is a mask?"

Yan Xuehuai explained: "It's just applying the face. My mother worked too hard. She had a bad skin and a bad complexion for a while. Later, she made a facial mask."

The queen recalled Li Qiniang's appearance. Although Li Qiniang could not be called a peerless beauty, she was also beautiful, dignified and generous. At first glance, she really didn't look like she had such a big daughter.

"Okay, I'll give it a try." The queen said.

Yan Xuehuai breathed a sigh of relief. As long as a woman wants to dress herself up, she is not as discouraged as she is.

Li Qiniang was worried at the Duke's Mansion. It was not until the lights were held that Yan Xuehuai was sent back by the people in the palace.

"Why is it so late? Didn't it mean that there are time limits when summoning people in the palace?" Li Qiniang asked.

Yan Xuehuai hung half of her body on Li Qiniang and sighed: "Mom, I'm so tired. You want to make up for me."

She talked about things in the palace, not only accompanied the queen to make facial masks, but also dyed nails with the queen. Even the pitiful experience of the prince of the king was used as gossip and told by her.

What Yan Xuehuai didn't know was that when she left the palace, the queen asked someone to invite the emperor over. The emperor couldn't believe her eyes. Yes, the queen was not only completely sick (of course, she pretended to be sick before), but instead had a weak look and exquisite makeup.

The emperor originally thought that the queen wanted to continue to question her sons, but he was very guilty. The queen didn't know about Xiaoqi's trip to Tarta.

But the queen did not mention her son, but instead asked him about the murder of the king of the Fan country, and asked him if he knew it. Then he said meaningfully: "The woman is not the queen, but just a fox-slut woman who is unfaithful, but caused the emperor to die. I wonder what Your Majesty thinks about this matter?"

The Emperor... I have not been close to women for many years, so the queen doesn't need to use me to educate me. If I had known this, I would not have allowed the prince to return to the Eastern Palace.
