Xie Yunjin raised his eyebrows lightly, and sighed unhappily: "Among the children we raised, the one I sympathize with the most is Sibao, who has never met a good companion, like our sons and their daughter-in-law. It's fine, nothing too much."

Lu Jiao smiled and said, "Then you thought your daughter-in-law was bad before."

Xie Yunjin laughed when she heard this, most of their daughter-in-laws are decided by Lu Jiao.

"Speaking of this, I have to admit that your vision is better than mine, Jiaojiao is good at everything."

Lu Jiao smiled and pushed him, "You are getting better at talking now."

Master Xie is very proud: "That must be."

The two went out to have breakfast while talking.

Today, even if the queen doesn't send someone to invite them, they still want to enter the palace to meet His Majesty. Since the queen came to invite them, they happened to enter the palace together.

After breakfast, Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao brought Qin Mo and Xie's daughters-in-law into the palace for the banquet.

Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao took Qin Mohe to the study, while Du Yan followed Hu Lingxue and others into the palace.

In the past, when they entered the palace, they would walk through the palace gate, but this time, the empress sent soft sedan chairs for them to enter.

Hu Lingxue and Zhao Yuluo looked around, not knowing what to say.

Shangguan Yunyan didn't know about the conflict between the Empress and Xie's family. She heard the ladies in the court yesterday about His Majesty and Empress. It was her mother who raised her by herself, so the emperor treated her mother very well, and even named her the Mrs. Zhou of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Yunyan has a slight affection for Xiao Wenyu, and she still has a conscience after becoming an emperor, which is relatively rare among emperors.

But other than that, Yunyan didn't have any extra thoughts.

She had such a father in her previous life, so she didn't have much confidence in men, but later she met two men, Rong Gui and Yu Xuan.

So don't talk about this life, even after the previous life, she doesn't want to get closer to men, and she doesn't want to marry any man.

In this life, she just wants to be by her mother's side, serve her, and take care of her. She feels that only by her mother's side can she feel secure in her heart.

But she didn't say anything about it.

Yunyan followed Hu Lingxue and the others, got into the soft sedan chair, and headed all the way to the Queen's Chaoyang Palace.

At this time, Chaoyang Palace came to many court wives, all of whom were dignitary wives and clan wives.

Hu Lingxue waited for a group of people to appear, and everyone stopped talking and looked over at him.

Soon, everyone saw Shangguan Yunyan behind the crowd. This little girl is so beautiful, it is not an exaggeration to say that she is the most beautiful woman in the Zhou Dynasty.

They had never seen such a beautiful little girl before. Of course, the wives in the hall who went to Xie's house for a banquet yesterday knew the identity of Shangguan Yunyan.

"Master Xie and Mrs. Zhou Guo's adoptive daughter."

"No wonder, the demeanor is extraordinary."

"I feel that she is a bit like Mrs. Zhou Guo, no wonder she was adopted as a righteous daughter."

Hu Lingxue took the lead in leading people to salute the empress.

The first queen did not wait for them to salute, so she greeted: "Okay, get up quickly, today is a private banquet, there are not so many rules."

Although the queen said so, Hu Lingxue and others still did not lose their manners, and thanked the queen for her kindness before getting up.

The queen came down from the top, walked to Shangguan Yunyan, took her hand affectionately and introduced to the wives in the palace: "This is the adopted daughter of Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Zhou Guo. Besides accepting a adopted daughter , and adopted a adopted son, who also gave birth to a stunning good-looking."

Shangguan Yunyan looked at the queen who introduced her to everyone, and frowned slightly.

If you don't have anything to show your courtesy, you can either rape or steal.

She thinks that she doesn't have a good relationship with this queen, why is she so enthusiastic.

If she said that it was because her mother was kind to her, but she saw that she was not so enthusiastic about her elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law.

Shangguan Yunyan looked at the queen calmly, with a slight smile on his lips.

After hearing the queen's introduction, everyone in the hall couldn't help but praise: "The little girl is as beautiful as a flower, she is really a rare beauty."

"Yeah, let me like it."

"It's true. Seeing her every day makes people feel better."

As soon as these people spoke, the queen laughed: "Since you like it so much, why don't you ask my younger sister to marry me back, that is, don't you see it every day?"

As soon as the queen finished speaking, everyone in the hall understood the purpose of the queen's banquet today.

It turned out that the queen was looking after the marriage for the girl.

The Xie family also knew the purpose of the queen's banquet.

Hu Lingxue was so annoyed that she pursed her lips tightly.

Zhao Yuluo and the others were also very angry. Neither father nor mother had spoken about Yunyan's marriage.

What is she trying to do?

Shangguan Yunyan turned to look at the queen, looked at the queen with a smile on her face, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "Empress, if you say that, others will think that I hate marriage. I have no intention of getting married now."

The queen was stunned, and then her face was still smiling, she patted Shangguan Yunyan's hand and said: "I saw you like it, so I said it so casually, but you are not too young, you can consider marriage , if you meet someone you like, you can tell me as much as you want, I have a lot of good friends, but if you ask, I can still do this master."

Shangguan Yunyan looked at the queen with a smile: "Then Du Yan has thanked the queen here, and if he really meets her, he will definitely tell the queen."

Shangguan Yunyan said this, but she was thinking in her heart, the queen looked eager to show her off, why did she do this, and whether she got married or not has nothing to do with her.

Your Highness, everyone looked at the queen, and then at Shangguan Yunyan. Although the queen said that she said it casually, many people still saw the meaning. The queen was looking at her for Shangguan Yunyan. It should be the shyness of the little girl.

Many people stared at Shangguan Yunyan, calculating the possibility.

But most people still don't want to marry someone like Shangguan Yunyan, she is so beautiful, if her son can't protect her, it will be a disaster for the family.

The atmosphere in the hall was a bit weird, although Shangguan Yunyan refused, but she couldn't stop other people's eyes.

This made her very unhappy, and Hu Lingxue and the others were also very unhappy. Zhao Yuluo glared at the empress with sharp eyes, and stretched out her hand to hold Shangguan Yunyan's hand and walked to the side.

"Sister, let's sit down."

"Okay, second sister-in-law."

Seeing Xie's family like this, the queen felt indescribably annoyed, but thinking about Xiao Wenyu, she finally endured it, looked at Hu Lingxue with a smile and asked, "Where's mother?"

"Father and Mother have something to ask His Majesty, so go to His Majesty first, and Mother will come over later."

"Um."

In the study room, Xiao Wenyu was talking to Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao.

Xie Yunjin asked Xiao Wenyu: "I entered the palace to ask His Majesty something. Does Your Majesty intend to unify the world and attack other countries?"

If Xiao Wenyu had ambitions, they would not talk about Qin Mo.

To add to the chaos, if Xiao Wenyu had no intention of attacking other countries and unifying the world, then it would be fine for them to tell him about Qin Mo.

Xiao Wenyu was stunned for a moment after hearing Xie Yunjin's words, and then shook his head: "Father, I never thought of attacking other countries to unify the world. Although unifying the world can become the hegemony of the emperor, it is built on the lives of countless people, and the country Bigness is not necessarily a good thing, not to mention inadequate management, sooner or later there will be division in the future, any dynasty is divided and combined, so why bother to try to unify the world, each governing the country under its own name, so that the people can live a better life Days are the most important thing."
