Chapter 55
Xie Chen nodded, she was not afraid of Concubine Xiao, but was wondering if the concubine who assassinated the emperor's uncle was in the palace at this time.

While talking and laughing, the carriage stopped at the palace gate.

Yan Qing'an got out of the carriage first, and then reached out to help Xie Chen get off.

When Xie Chen was about to go down with Yan Qingan's hand, he raised his eyes and saw a familiar figure standing not far from here, it was Gu Hengyu.

For some reason, Xie Chen felt a little guilty, silently took his hand back, and said in a low voice, "Thank you, Brother Prince, I'll just do it myself."

Yan Qing'an naturally noticed the change in Xie Chen, turned her head in the direction Xie Chen was looking at just now, and saw Gu Hengyu walking towards this side.

Gu Hengyu's face remained the same as usual, without any change.

Obviously the weather is getting hotter and hotter now, but Xie Chen just feels that the surrounding air is a bit cold.

"His Royal Highness." Gu Hengyu walked up to Yan Qing'an.

Gu Hengyu also studied in the palace when he was young, and his relationship with Yan Qing'an should be pretty good.

"Master Gu, why did you enter the palace today?" Yan Qing'an said to Gu Hengyu with a smile, without the airs of a prince.

Gu Hengyu was summoned by the emperor to discuss matters today, and he didn't expect to see this scene when he came out.

"Discuss some court affairs with the emperor." Gu Hengyu said truthfully.After finishing speaking, he looked at Xie Chen. "What are you? Planning to stay in the palace for a while?"

When Xie Chen heard Gu Hengyu asking her, he put away his guilty conscience and replied, "I plan to stay until next month before going back."

Gu Hengyu smiled when he heard it, approached Xie Chen, put his hand on Xie Chen's head and touched it, then lowered his head and said, "Who in the mansion has wronged you again?"

After Xie Chen felt Gu Hengyu's hand on his head, he was puzzled, he was not like this usually, what happened today?Could it be that the emperor's uncle pissed him off in the palace and made him pissed off?

Seeing that Xie Chen didn't speak for a long time, with doubts on his face, Gu Hengyu's hand froze, and he took it back, and said nonchalantly: "It's fine to live in the palace, I'm going to the palace every day, so it's convenient to see you gone."

Xie Chen felt that there was nothing wrong with this remark, so he nodded.

Yan Qing'an looked at Gu Hengyu and Xie Chen in front of him. He knew Gu Hengyu in the past, and Xie Chen was special to Gu Hengyu.

"Chen'er, we should go." Yan Qing'an interrupted the two of them and said to Xie Chen.

Gu Hengyu glanced at him lightly, but didn't speak.

After hearing this, Xie Chen said to Gu Hengyu: "I'm entering the palace, and we'll talk about what happened in Xie's mansion tomorrow after we meet."

Gu Hengyu nodded to Xie Chen, and said, "En."

The first thing Xie Chen did when he entered the palace was not to go to the place where he lived, but to visit the Empress Dowager at the Palace of Compassion and Peace.

In the Palace of Mercy Ning, the Empress Dowager was wearing a bright yellow palace dress and sat on the main seat, looking at Xie Chen with a kind face on her face.

Empress Nianshi is sitting on the right side of the Empress Dowager, wearing a red and golden robe with wide sleeves. Although she is nearly forty years old, the years have not left traces on her face.

"Chen'er is here, come back quickly and let grandma have a look." When the Queen Mother saw Yan Qing'an brought Xie Chen in, the smile on her face became wider.

Xie Chen obediently walked up to the Empress Dowager with a smile on his face, and politely bowed to the Empress Dowager: "Chen'er has seen the Empress Dowager."

"Chen'er is going to have sex with her grandmother?" Hearing Xie Chen respectfully call her queen mother, it was as if a basin of cold water had been poured on her.

After hearing this, Xie Chen shook his head in fear, lowered his head and bit his lip, tears rolled in his eyes.

Seeing Xie Chen's appearance, the Empress Dowager thought that her daughter had left early, and her granddaughter was lonely and helpless in Xie's mansion. A few days ago, she said she couldn't enter the palace. Now she must have been wronged in the mansion.

"Grandmother isn't angry with you. I'm just your own granddaughter. I don't have time to love you. If you have any grievances in the future, you must tell grandma." The queen mother has called herself "I" in front of Xie Chen since she was a child. Let Xie Chen get closer to himself.

Xie Chen nodded when he heard it, and called softly, "Grandmother."

The Empress Dowager looked at Xie Chen in front of her, and recalled the appearance of Xie Chen making love at her knees when she was young, and couldn't help feeling that the Xie Mansion was really deceiving people too much.

Thinking of this, the empress dowager's eyes gradually turned red, and she put her hand on Xie Chen's.

The queen at the side saw this scene, and said, "Chen'er, come to Bengong's side quickly, and let me have a look after the mother has finished watching."

Xie Chen nodded, and walked towards the queen, who gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Before Xie Chen opened his mouth to call for someone, the queen said first, "Chen'er, don't call me empress, but aunt."

Xie Chen had always adhered to the principle of not getting involved in the emperor's uncle's harem in her previous life, no matter how kind the queen treated her, she would not be moved.

But later, I helped Yan Yichen imprison Yan Qingan. The queen was not in good health, and she fell down immediately when she found out about it. Before she died, when Xie Chen went to see her for Yan Yichen, she still held Xie Chen The hand said that Yan Yichen is not someone who treats her sincerely, and told her to be careful.

At the time, Xie Chen thought that the empress was trying to drive a wedge between her and Yan Yichen, and said to her, "It's not up to the empress to take care of my affairs."

The afternoon after Xie Chen left, the queen passed away.

Looking at the queen who was still standing in front of him, Xie Chen couldn't help but shed tears. He didn't know if he felt guilty for letting down the people who were good to him in his previous life, or he felt aggrieved by his previous experience.

Seeing Xie Chen's tears, the queen became a little anxious, "What's going on? Chen'er was wronged in Xie's mansion?"

When Xie Chen came back from Yaoshan last time, the empress followed the emperor to see Xie Chen. At that time, Xie Chen was not of this temperament. He had only been in Xie Mansion for only three months. Why did he cry when he saw him?
The queen thought that if Princess Yuning was still there, and seeing her daughter like this, she would be so distressed that she would overthrow Xie's mansion.

"Chen'er, if they really wronged you, you tell auntie, auntie will definitely not let them go." The queen said with a heartbroken thank you.

Xie Chen was unwilling to talk to the queen in his previous life, but now seeing the queen's concern for him, he felt more guilt in his heart, and shook his head, "It's okay, Chen'er just thinks that you think of her mother."

When mentioning Princess Yuning, both the queen mother and the queen were a little sad, but they were afraid that Xie Chen would feel uncomfortable, the queen pulled Xie Chen and said: "Chen'er, it's okay, this is your home, and we are your family."

Yan Qing'an watched from below, fearing that they would not be able to hold back tears if they continued talking, so she said, "Mother, the emperor will hold a family banquet to welcome Chen'er tonight, and I will take Chen'er back to the palace to tidy up."

The queen let go of Xie Chen after hearing the words, and took out a handkerchief to wipe away her tears, "Look at me, I forgot about this, hurry up and follow the prince, the emperor is hosting a banquet tonight."

Xie Chen nodded to the queen, turned around to look at the queen mother, saluted them, and said, "In that case, Chen'er will accompany you well later, Chen'er will go to prepare first."
