Gong Cheng stood at the entrance of the hall and whispered, "Go back to Your Majesty, Empress, Empress Dowager is here."

"It's lively today, you all come here." Xiao Changqi let go of Ye Qingyan and welcomed the Queen Mother at the door with her.

The Empress Dowager brought Madam Yuan and a delicate food box.

Seeing that the queen was there, she smiled and said, "It's just right, I'll go to Kunyuan Palace again."

"Is there something wrong with the Queen Mother?" Ye Qingyan helped the Queen Mother sit down.

"Ai's family is going to Xiangguo Temple to surrender to incense. I beg the Buddha to bless you to get pregnant with the emperor's heir as soon as possible. If you have time tomorrow, go with Ai's family, which will show more sincerity. How about it?"

"Go to Xiangguo Temple? Xiangguo Temple is outside the capital. It takes an hour to get there from the imperial palace. It is too hard for my mother."

"For the crown prince of the Yan Dynasty, the Ai family is willing to do anything, not to mention that they just go to Xiangguo Temple to bring incense. Moreover, at this time of year, the Ai family also goes to Xiangguo Temple to burn incense. Is the queen willing?"

The Empress Dowager looked at Ye Qingyan with a burning look.

Ye Qingyan looked at Xiao Changqi and asked.

Thinking of her love of going out to the palace to play, Xiao Changqi said, "My mother does go to Xiangguo Temple every year. She has already decided on this incense tour. If you want to go, you can go."

Of course Ye Qingyan was willing to leave the palace. Although he was not interested in places like temples, he could leave the palace.

He said to the Empress Dowager: "Thank you, my mother, I am naturally willing."

"Okay, okay." The Empress Dowager laughed, and then said to Madam Yuan: "Take out the things."

The food box is a plate of rouge plum blossoms with all colors, fragrance and flavor.

"Ai family remembers that you like to eat this dish, so I will make it today, so I will use it with His Majesty."

"Thank you, Mother." Ye Qingyan's eyes became brighter when he saw the delicious food.

The Empress Dowager smiled kindly, "Then you eat, the Ai family will go back to the palace first."

"Yes, I'll send you my mother to you."

"Give me a farewell to my mother."

Ye Qingyan drooled at the plate of rouge plum blossoms, "I haven't eaten it for a long time."

"Try it." Xiao Changqi gave her the chopsticks.

Ye Qingyan picked up a piece without hesitation, but when he was about to stuff it into his mouth, he turned the chopsticks and handed them to Xiao Changqi, "Husband, share the blessings together."

"Haha, what about the next half sentence?"

"Because Jiaojiao doesn't want to share hardships with her husband." She just had the best of her own hardships, and added a sentence in her heart.

"I am blocking everything." Xiao Changqi also thought, and stuttered and ate the rouge plum blossoms she fed.

...

The Qingjia Army supported the Empress Dowager and the Empress's carriage, and left the palace before dawn because the Empress Dowager wanted to burn the first stick of incense.

In fact, Xiangguo Temple had already sealed the temple two days ago, waiting for the Empress Dowager to burn incense. Naturally, the incense is the first one no matter when it is launched.

Along the way, Ye Qingyan was afraid of something unexpected, so he kept illuminating his mind and observing the surroundings. After all, it was an extraordinary time now. If the deposed prince was ambushed secretly, it would be easy to start outside the city.

But, she seemed to be too careless.

The convoy went smoothly, and within an hour, we arrived at Xiangguo Temple.

After putting on the incense stick, I discussed Zen and Buddha with Master Fang. After using vegetarian food, I was very calm.

Return to the palace again.

After passing the city gate, Ye Qingyan let down most of his mind and finally withdrew his external thoughts.

"My mother, I have passed the city gate and will soon arrive at the palace. How do you feel about your health? Are you very tired?"

"The Ai family is very good." The Empress Dowager smiled, then took out a yellow paper peace talisman from her arms and handed it to Ye Qingyan, "You smell it and see."

"Huh? When did you ask for the peace talisman?" Ye Qingyan kept accompanying the Empress Dowager to protect her, but he had never seen her ask for any peace talisman.

"Smell it." The Empress Dowager smiled, exuding a hint of mysterious aura...

"What?" Ye Qingyan took the peace talisman without any doubt, and then followed the sniff. As a result... unexpectedly, a scent of the brain penetrated into her sea of ​​consciousness along her nose.

She hurriedly used her mind to stop the fragrance, but it was still too late.

Look at the Empress Dowager in shock...

But the kindness and smile on the empress dowager's face became paradoxical and gloomy.

Before the word "you, you are not a mother" fell, the person fell into a coma.

Then, the Empress Dowager fainted... At the same time, something was squirming under her white forehead...

...

************

Qianlong Mansion, Prince Yu’s Mansion—

There are strange flowers and plants on both sides of the winding stone path.

Among them, there is a flower tree that has just been moved and planted. It is called Huoli. The gorgeous flowers are like flames, clustered and erect. Even the stamens are deep red, and they are really red and bright, as if they are shining the whole world. The fragrance of flowers is swaying, but the taste is very elegant, which is not very consistent with its strong appearance.

A man wearing a white gold-rimmed dragon pattern robe, holding a crystal clear jade bead in his hand, standing under the fire tree, his back is like pine and bamboo, with wide shoulders and narrow waist, and his mighty and domineering as the hollow sun, which cannot be seen directly. Part of his black hair, which was as smooth as the sky, was tied up by the white jade dragon crown, and the rest was accompanied by the evening breeze, accompanied by the fragrance of flowers, fluttering and dancing, like a dream.

"Your Majesty, I'll ask the Prime Minister for his visit." Yiming Qingjia Guard stepped forward and bowed with his fists.

Xiao Changqi turned around and said to Qingjiawei as light as ice, "I have said that I will not see anyone here."

The Qingjia Guard immediately received the order and was about to retreat.

But he saw Ren Ran had already come over, saying that he was in charge of Qingjia Guards, and the county magistrate was better off now, so these Qingjia Guards could not stop him.

Still, between her long fingers with distinct joints, she held a bracelet that looked very inconspicuous, and a golden and jade ring that only a woman's little finger or a child could wear. "It's her trace, don't you want to hear it?"

When Xiao Changqi saw the two things, he was stunned, "Where is she?" There was a hint of unhidden tremor in his voice!

"Xiaoguo bought the thing from a street vendor selling crude jade jewelry. Xiaoguo has the talent to remember all the time. He once saw the queen wearing the same thing, so he bought it curiously."

He gave the things to Xiao Changqi, "That street stall vendor was actually a kidnapper who specialized in abducting good women. He then put the things obtained from women on the street stalls to sell them. While selling things, he continued to find the target."

Angry flames emerged from Xiao Changqi's body, his eyes also turned red with murderous intent, "Bring someone to me!"

Ren Ran continued: "He came here now, it may be a hindrance to the Holy Beauty." He has already been cleaned up!

"But all the ministers who can ask have asked have asked. The queen's disappearance has nothing to do with him. These two things were in the bag that his dog brought back from the moat. There was also a set of clothes in that bag. Before the kidnapper had time to deal with it, he had already taken back the clothes and asked Miss Chunyu, and it was confirmed that it was the regular clothes that the queen wore when she went to Xiangguo Temple."

"Check the waterway!" Xiao Changqi clenched his hands tightly.

"Yes, your Majesty."
