Quick travel: I rely on the childbirth system to pamper my harem

Chapter 698: The Vicious Crown Princess and the Sickly and Delicate Crown Prince 27

Hearing this, Li Yu's face changed several times.

He looked at Li Yuanzhi with some complicated feelings.

At this time, Li Lingsu behind him also pulled Li Yu's sleeve and said pitifully: "Mother is right, my second sister is indeed suffering outside, brother, it's all my fault."

"If I hadn't switched backgrounds with her, my second sister wouldn't have been..."

Li Yu had been thinking about that, but when he heard what Li Lingsu said, he immediately became anxious: "How could you be wrong? The one who is wrong is the couple who are worse than pigs and dogs. You are innocent."

Li Lingsu's face stiffened slightly.

After all, they are her biological parents. Even if there is no affection between them, the blood relationship is still there. Besides, they sent her to the Grand Tutor's Mansion so that she could live a good life.

But now Li Yu actually called them worse than pigs and dogs. Li Lingsu couldn't accept it. He said with a pale face: "Brother, don't say it."

After the words fell, Li Lingsu said again in a resolute voice: "Mother, I will never go against my second sister again. I know I was wrong. I will definitely return all the things I have occupied to my second sister."

After saying this, she took off the bracelet on her hand.

It was the coming-of-age gift that Madam Li had given her, and she had been wearing it all the time: "This should have belonged to my second sister, and now I am giving it back to her."

"No, I have one myself." Li Yuanzhi refused.

She doesn't want things that have been used by others.

"Second sister, you..." Li Lingsu looked a little embarrassed.

Madam Li followed up, "Alright, Zhi'er doesn't care about these material possessions. Besides, I also plan to hold a coming-of-age party for Zhi'er after the Queen's birthday party. At that time, I will compensate her for all those things."

Li Lingsu's expression trembled.

It seemed that no one expected that Mrs. Li would hold a coming-of-age ceremony.

"Thank you, mother." Li Yuanzhi thanked softly.

In her previous life, Madam Li also wanted to hold a coming-of-age ceremony for the original host, but was stopped by Li Lingsu with a trick, so that no one outside knew that Li Yuanzhi had come of age.

Even if they knew, they still felt that she was not favored.

Li Lingsu clenched her fists and squeezed her palms hard. After a moment's rest, she pretended to be calm and asked, "Mother, who are you going to take to the Queen's birthday party?"

"Of course it's Zhi'er." Madam Li paused and looked at Li Lingsu, "Don't worry, you are still the eldest daughter of the Li family. I won't treat you unfairly."

"Thank you, mother."

With these words, Li Lingsu gradually felt relieved. She was originally worried that Madam Li would not take her into the palace, but now it seems that he was overthinking.

"Alright, you guys should leave now. Don't come here and disturb Zhi'er's rest for no reason. You have no manners at all."

"Yes." Li Lingsu nodded.

When she followed Li Yu outside, Li Lingsu still did not stop, and even walked faster and faster. Li Yu hurriedly said, "Susu, slow down, be careful not to fall."

Hearing this, Li Lingsu stopped and said viciously: "Brother, do you not like me anymore?"

"How is that possible?" Li Yu sighed helplessly.

He protected Li Lingsu and comforted her, "Don't cry, wait until the Queen's birthday banquet, and we will enter the palace together. By then, you will shine and maybe even become a county lady."

"Do you think I care about the title of county lady?" Li Lingsu looked misunderstood.

Li Yu said hurriedly: "Of course not."

In fact, Li Lingsu did care, but she didn't want to admit it. She wanted to be a woman of high moral character: "Tomorrow mother will take my second sister to my grandparents' house."

Thinking of this, Li Lingsu got angry.

Not only was her title of county princess taken away, but she was also going to lose the favor of her maternal grandparents for so many years. She was unwilling to accept this!

Li Yu frowned and said, "Why are you going to my grandparents' house for no reason?"

"Mother wants my second sister to recognize them." Li Lingsu bit her lip, "Brother, in mother's heart, I am no longer her daughter, so how could she not make it clear to her maternal family?"

"Mother is so confused."

"It will not be good for the Grand Tutor's Mansion if this matter gets out. What's more, you haven't even got engaged yet. If people misunderstand you, how will you get married in the future?"

Li Yu was really worried about Li Lingsu.

"So, big brother, you have to think of a way for me to stop my second sister from going to my grandparents' house." She paused and said worriedly, "I'm not afraid of getting hurt, I'm afraid that my father's reputation will be damaged."

"I see."

Li Yu agreed and turned to report to Grand Tutor Li.

Meng Qingning didn't know how things ended up.

Anyway, in the end, her people still saw Madam Li taking Li Yuanzhi out. As for Li Lingsu and Li Yu, they followed the carriage from a distance.

After hearing the report, Wei Yueyao said unhappily, "Sister-in-law, how about we go directly to the merchant?"

The Shangjia is Mrs. Li’s parents’ home.

Mr. Shang is a great scholar of our time. Mrs. Li's father inherited his legacy. Every member of the Shang family is full of bookish air and is a model of scholars of this dynasty.

"That's their family affair. We just need to wait for the result. Besides, the Queen Mother's birthday banquet is coming soon. I, your sister-in-law, am so busy that I don't have time to go out of the palace with you."

"Isn't there still the Empress Defei?" Wei Yueyao wanted to quit.

Meng Qingning pinched her nose and said seriously, "But my father asked me to preside over it. If he knew that I was being cunning, he would punish me severely."

"Father is such a fool." Wei Yueyao complained, then looked at Wei Qian on the bed, "I don't know when my brother will wake up. If he wakes up, you and mother won't have to walk on thin ice like this."

"He will wake up." Meng Qingning said with deep affection in his eyes.

On the day of the Queen's birthday banquet, she will feed Wei Qian the antidote.

As for what Wei Qian would do after waking up, she would not get involved. Anyway, Wei Yuan could not be let go, and the emperor...

That night, Meng Qingning started knocking again.

"Your Highness, I actually doubt whether it was the emperor and the King of Liang who teamed up to harm you. Otherwise, why would the emperor start to support the King of Liang? A tall tree attracts the wind. Your wisdom has left a deep impression on the people."

"This is not a good thing. Father will definitely be wary."

"If you wake up, will they still want to target you? Sometimes I wonder if it would be better if you didn't wake up."

Wei Qian's eyelids twitched slightly, as if responding to Meng Qingning's words.

Meng Qingning saw everything but pretended not to see it. She fed the medicine to Wei Qian, and then when she saw that he couldn't eat it, she passed it to him with her lips.

"Don't be afraid, Your Highness. I will definitely stay with you and never leave you."

……

The birthday banquet was particularly grand.

Not only were there members of the royal family, but also children of officials, making it extremely lively.

The emperor intended to choose wives for Prince Liang and Prince Xian. His eyes kept scanning the daughters of various ministers and finally fell on Li Lingsu, seeming to be satisfied.

But soon, his attention was attracted by other girls' families.

"Congratulations to the Queen on her 100th birthday. May your youth remain forever and your years be undefeated."

"Everyone, get up, don't be so reserved!"

The queen waved her hand and accepted the blessing with a smile: "Your Majesty, I will also toast you a glass."

"Queen, today I should respect you." The emperor chuckled.

But Meng Qingning, who was watching from the side, felt it was extremely hypocritical.
