"Your Excellency probably knows that he..."

Xiao Yuanzi was reluctant to say the words "time is running out".

As soon as I said that, my chest started to hurt so much that I almost vomited blood.

He said hoarsely, "After hearing that you won the battle, the lady felt relieved and decided to return to the imperial city to see her mother, the queen."

Although Lan Chu is not Lan Chu, Lan Chu is indeed Lan Chu.

Her feelings for Her Majesty the Queen must not be very deep, but she is the mother of her body after all.

What's more, Her Majesty the Queen owed her an apology for what happened back then.

Gu Yunxi could especially understand her mother's feelings.

My mother is a person who always has principles when it comes to right and wrong.

Your Majesty, you do owe her an apology.

That night Her Majesty the Queen came in person.

In fact, before Gu Yunxi came back, Lan Chu had been living in the Queen's bedroom. According to Xiao Yuanzi, Her Majesty the Queen would come to see Lan Chu at night during this period.

But when His Majesty was guarding Lan Chu, he did not allow anyone to get close, so even Xiao Yuanzi didn't know what His Majesty was doing around Lan Chu.

Lan Chu woke up several times, but the time was very short.

Many times, just as His Majesty was notified, she fell asleep again as soon as His Majesty arrived, and the two of them didn't even have time to say a few words.

The only two times when they could have spoken, Xiao Yuanzi was not present, and no one knew what the two of them said.

Her Majesty the Queen came over tonight and did not let Gu Yunxi leave. She even started chatting with Gu Yunxi.

"She said you don't want to be Her Majesty the Queen, and asked me to promise her that I will never force you."

"Is this why she came back to find you?" Gu Yunxi was a little stunned. Could it be that her mother didn't come back for justice?

"Do you think she insisted on returning to the palace in such a situation just to vent her anger on me?"

Gu Yunxi did not answer this question, but Her Majesty the Queen could see her answer.

Her Majesty the Queen sighed and said, "Originally, I thought so too. She came back to accuse me of framing her back then."

Gu Yunxi still didn't speak.

Your heart is unpredictable.

This action of my mother will certainly make Her Majesty the Queen unhappy, but considering that my mother is so ill, Her Majesty the Queen may not bother with her.

After a long while, Gu Yunxi said softly, "I did think so originally. After all, that's just my mother's personality."

"Do you know her?" Her Majesty the Queen did not understand what this meant.

After Gu Yunxi was born, Lan Chu "disappeared" due to an accident. In fact, the mother and daughter had never gotten along.

"Was it when we were in Xiling?" Now Her Majesty the Queen knew clearly that the former Xiling Imperial Master Gu Yao was Lan Chu.

"I did not tell Your Majesty about my mother's identity in time that day. Please forgive me. It's just that my mother completely forgot about the past. I think she is living a comfortable life in Xiling, so I don't want to disturb her peace. So, I didn't report all this to Your Majesty. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

"If I really wanted to punish you, how could I allow Feng Zhihua and Gu Nanfeng to go to Nanling and do whatever they want?"

Gu Yunxi was stunned for a moment before she realized that General Feng and her elder brother's trip to Nanling was tacitly approved by the Queen.

The Queen sighed and said quietly, "If it were her previous temper, she would definitely come back to ask for justice from me, but this time she came back only for you."
