Lin Qingran looked confused. She didn't understand what Xiao Heng meant by reaching out to her. Was he trying to lead her away?

"Ran Ran, I will carry you to Cining Palace." Xiao Heng said calmly.

Hearing this, Lin Qingran screamed uncontrollably.

【Ah ah ah! What's going on, dog man? Are you really planning on letting me live on another planet? We got married yesterday, and today we are walking away with each other, don’t I want to lose face? 】

[The Queen Mother is so difficult to get along with, but she still wants to carry me to Cining Palace. She couldn't find any more excuses to tease me. Isn't this an obvious way to bring me to her doorstep for her to manipulate? The man really doesn’t know anything about the harem, and I admire him for being able to say such things. 】

[Actually, it’s not that I’m afraid of the Queen Mother, I’m just afraid that she’ll cause trouble and I can’t fight back, otherwise it’ll be treason. Hey, Takashi has really hurt me. No matter how I am bullied, I have to endure it. 】

Lin Qingran didn't show any emotion on her face, but in her heart she wanted to beat Xiao Heng up.

"No, thank you Your Highness for your consideration. I'm very grateful. It's just a hug. I don't need it. I feel like I can still go." Lin Qingran replied.

Xiao Heng was silent for a while. If he hadn't heard what she was saying in her heart, Xiao Heng might have believed her.

In the final analysis, besides worrying about the Queen Mother, I also feel embarrassed.

After thinking for a while, Xiao Heng decided to respect Lin Qingran. After all, she might still not be able to accept it, and it would save her from being criticized later.

However, Xiao Heng still slowed down his walking speed so that Lin Qingran would not feel too uncomfortable.

Although Lin Qingran felt uncomfortable, she still knew that Xiao Heng was cooperating with her, and her heart was very complicated, but no matter what, her resentment towards Xiao Heng was still a little less.

Thinking of what Empress Qi had just said, Xiao Heng gave a secret order.

"Go and invite people over."

Lin Qingran didn't quite understand when she heard Xiao Heng ordering the person in secret. Naturally, she didn't know who the person he ordered was, but she didn't ask any more questions. She didn't want to know too much about Xiao Heng.

Not long after, the two arrived at the entrance of Cining Palace. Since Xiao Heng was accompanying them, Lin Qingran was not stopped.

Walking into Cining Palace, there was an old woman sitting at the head. She was not very gorgeously dressed, but she exuded a sense of majesty. This was the Queen Mother.

There are two people sitting on the left and right below the Queen Mother. The middle-aged woman is Concubine Yan Shu, who looked like a beauty when she was young.

Opposite Concubine Yan Shu was undoubtedly Xiao Chen.

Sure enough, both mother and son were in the Queen Mother's Palace and had been following the Queen Mother.

"I've met the Imperial Grandmother." Xiao Heng saluted.

"I've met the Queen Mother." Lin Qingran saluted.

Tea had not been served yet, so Lin Qingran could not change her name to the Queen Mother, but had to call her the Queen Mother.

Concubine Yan Shu nodded slightly in greeting, while Xiao Chen stood up and bowed slightly, "I've met the emperor brother."

The atmosphere seemed okay at first, but suddenly there was a cold snort.

"Humph!"

Lin Qingran paused and realized that it was the Queen Mother who finally had an attack. She was also very helpless, with a look of sincerity and fear on her face.

"Queen Mother, please calm down, Ran Ran is guilty." Lin Qingran said.

"Oh? What crime is the Crown Princess guilty of?" the Queen Mother asked slowly.

Hearing this, Lin Qingran knew that the Queen Mother would still find an excuse to deal with her. In this era when imperial power was supreme, of course she could not do anything. If there was anything that displeased the Queen Mother, she would punish Lin Qingran, and no one could say anything.

Thinking of Grandma Rong and the Queen Mother in the costume drama, it was undeniable that Lin Qingran was still a little worried about being punished. The main reason was that she was weak and had no other options and could not resist at all.

"The Queen Mother, it's Ran Ran who came late." Lin Qingran said with a low eyebrow.

[What kind of old witch is this? My whole body hurts like I've been run over by a car. She wants to tease me by serving tea on the second day of the wedding. I knew that the Queen Mother was uneasy and well-meaning. No wonder the Queen Mother specially reminded the dog man to protect me, and I didn’t see him talking at this moment. 】

[Damn it, it was originally the dog man’s fault, but now it seems like it’s my fault. If it weren’t for him, would I be able to get up? 】

Although Lin Qingran prefers to stay in bed, she will not stay in bed after a meeting when there is serious business.

Xiao Heng didn't feel angry at all when he heard Lin Qingran scolding the Queen Mother in his heart.

The Queen Mother obviously wanted to manipulate her, and Xiao Heng would not side with the Queen Mother. After all, Lin Qingran was his wife.

"Imperial grandmother, it's my grandson's fault that she didn't care about the Crown Princess's body." Xiao Heng said.

Hearing this, the Queen Mother's expression did not improve, but became even uglier.

"If that's the case, it's the Crown Princess's fault. She failed to persuade the Crown Prince. She only knew how to serve people with sex, which made the Crown Prince so ridiculous." The Queen Mother snorted coldly.

Lin Qingran's face remained unchanged, but she had already cursed in her heart.

[I know for sure that this old witch didn’t hold back anything good. She didn’t dare to call a bitch a man, so she just said everything to me, right? She has no idea about the temperament of a doggy man. Is that something I can interfere with? 】

[I said no to it several times last night, but did he even listen to it? 】

[No, I’m so angry. This debt must be settled on this bitch’s head. It’s his fault that I came late and was picked on by the Queen Mother! 】

When Xiao Heng heard this, he also understood that the Queen Mother did this deliberately, and felt a little uncomfortable.

Indeed, the Queen Mother did not dare to speak against him. After all, she knew that Xiao Heng was never someone who could be manipulated casually.

If this person were replaced by Lin Qingran, it would be much more convenient. Even if Lin Qingran is manipulated, it doesn't matter. After all, people will not follow the wrong path.

"Royal grandmother, that's not the case. It's because of my grandson that she came late. She got up late," Xiao Heng said.

Lin Qingran paused. Before she could speak and explain, Xiao Heng helped.

But since Xiao Heng helped her, she naturally wouldn't say much. Anyway, the Queen Mother would not lose face to Xiao Heng, and she also needed to give Xiao Heng face.

As expected, the Queen Mother looked slightly stiff, but did not say much.

"Okay, tea."

Hearing the Queen Mother's voice, Lin Qingran knew that this meant letting her go temporarily, but she still couldn't completely rest assured. After all, the Queen Mother said that Concubine Yan Shu and Xiao Chen hadn't started yet.

Lin Qingran served tea to the Queen Mother very carefully, "Grandmother, please have tea."

I thought that the Queen Mother would do something a little trick when taking the tea cup, but I didn't expect that she took the tea easily and gave Lin Qingran something.

Although it is not as good as the work of Queen Qi and Emperor Kang Yuan, it is not small.

Of course, the Queen Mother couldn't give her a bad gift, otherwise she would be in trouble. If she wanted to embarrass Lin Qingran, she would also embarrass herself, which would be more than worth the gain.

At this moment, Concubine Yan Shu covered her lips and smiled, her eyes falling on Lin Qingran.
