The Empress Dowager Qin looked at Tan A Niu with complicated emotions in her heart.

The child she gave birth to after a ten-month pregnancy actually looked more like her.

This child actually retains none of the disgusting features of his biological father, and is so clean and clear that it is impossible to feel disgusted...

Especially when I saw the scene of Tan Aniu and Yan Lilan standing together and playing around, and when I saw Tan Aniu seeing his brother being beaten, he immediately felt distressed and gently touched his brother's forehead, and apologized to his brother in a low voice with self-blame, Queen Mother Qin's heart suddenly sank.

This was a scene she had never imagined.

The scoundrel she had hated for so many years actually got along so well with her baby A-Lan, and actually liked her baby A-Lan so much...

Queen Mother Qin pursed her lips and her eyes were moist.

She thought vaguely——

If her poor eldest son had not died in the disaster that wiped out the family fourteen years ago, then her most proud eldest son would surely love his younger brother A Lan as much as Tan A Niu, right?

must……

Most definitely.

Tan A Niu and A Lan are just half-mothers, but they like A Lan so much. Her most beloved eldest son and A Lan are real brothers connected by blood. How could her gentle and kind eldest son not love A Lan? Where is this younger brother?

Thinking of her eldest son whose head was missing when he was only ten years old, and those eyes that could not be closed in a pool of blood, Empress Dowager Qin suddenly felt heartbroken.

She bit the tip of her tongue tightly, unable to stop the tears of sadness.

She is so sad.

Even after fourteen years, she still couldn't let go of the feeling of losing her beloved son. It still gave her a feeling of despair that someone had ripped out her heart when she thought about it.

She wanted to hug her Alan.

Only by holding the lost and recovered Ah Lan could she ease the pain of losing her eldest son forever.

Empress Dowager Qin held back her tears and said hoarsely, "Let them come in."

When the royal guards at the gate of the courtyard heard the Queen Mother's instructions, they immediately put away their swords and turned sideways to let the three brothers pass.

Seeing this, Zheng Zhien puffed up his chest proudly.

He snorted at the guard and walked into the courtyard with big steps on his little feet.

When he came to the bottom of the steps and saw the Queen Mother Qin whose eyes were red and seemed to have been crying, Zheng Zhien tilted his head and was confused for a moment.

Hey, what happened to the Queen Mother?

When the old emperor died some time ago, she didn't seem as sad as she is now when she was crying for him.

This sadness is almost like...

Just like eighteen sons died.

Zheng Zhien glanced at the Empress Dowager Qin again, and then he noticed something was wrong.

Why does the Queen Mother Qin keep staring at brother A Lan?

Oops!

Could it be that her husband is dead and she is feeling empty and lonely and wants to find a handsome man to enter the palace to relieve her loneliness? His younger brother A Lan is really stunning and has the qualifications to be a man's favorite. It's dangerous!

At this time, Queen Mother Qin suddenly walked down the steps.

Zheng Zhien’s heart was ringing with alarm bells!

He was about to stand in front of A Lan's brother to block the claws reaching towards A Lan, when he heard Jing Feiyuan's voice——

"A Lan, Brother A Niu, the Queen Mother is the second young lady of the Qin family. Your mother, the Imperial Master, is the eldest lady of the Qin family. Therefore, the Queen Mother is your aunt."

"..."

The steps that Zheng Zhien was about to take suddenly stopped.

He looked embarrassed.

Hey, he really deserves to die. The Queen Mother is her aunt, and she is not looking for a male favorite at all. He is out of his mind and made a mistake.

Hey, not to mention the princess, he has forgotten the relationship between the Queen Mother Qin and the wife of the Imperial Preceptor. The only reason is that the Imperial Preceptor's Office offended the emperor and was exterminated. After all these years, no one dares to mention anything related to the Imperial Preceptor's Office. The Queen Mother of Qin No one mentioned the relationship with the Imperial Master's Office.

Zheng Zhien stood there with his head lowered, embarrassed, scratching his toes on the ground.

The two brothers, Yan Lilan and Tan Aniu, standing next to him, raised their heads in shock.

They glanced at Jing Feiyuan in disbelief, and then all looked at the Queen Mother Qin who was walking towards them.

Seeing the tears in Queen Mother Qin's eyes, the two brothers looked at each other.

What's the situation?

This Queen Mother is actually their aunt?

Oh my god, they are actually related to the most noble woman in the world!

This is the Queen Mother, the emperor's mother. It's so flattering that they can be related to the Queen Mother and the Emperor in this life, right?

Seeing Queen Mother Qin approaching step by step, Tan Aniu and Yan Lilan became nervous, not daring to blink or breathe.

Oh no, no, the Queen Mother's aunt is here, what should they do?

When they saw this aunt for the first time, they didn't know how to greet her. Should they kneel down and salute, or should they just bow their hands and salute like ordinary nephews do when meeting their aunt?

Otherwise, turn around and run?

Tan Aniu was a coward, so he glanced at the Queen Mother Qin who was getting closer and closer. Nervously, he turned around and quickly grabbed Yan Lilan's arm and winked at Yan Lilan.

It's a pity that Yan Lilan and him are not in harmony.

Yan Lilan stared at him in confusion. Before she could understand what his eyes meant, Queen Mother Qin was already standing a foot in front of them.

"Alan..."

Queen Mother Qin looked at Yan Lilan with tears in her eyes, her heart filled with joy.

This is her son, the treasure she can't let go of.

She finally saw her A-Lan again.

The little baby in her arms grew so tall and big without her being able to see it.

The baby son she thought about day and night was so close at hand, Queen Mother Qin's eyes felt hot. She couldn't help it any longer, stepped forward and stretched out her arms to hug Yan Lilan tightly.

"Alan, my child..."

She choked and blurted out, then closed her mouth in time before she was about to say the wrong thing, and changed her words while crying——

"My nephew... I am your aunt, A Lan. You are the relative left to me by my sister. I have been looking for you all these years. I have been looking for you. You are the child I have cared about for fourteen years. A Lan..."

Yan Lilan was caught off guard and was hugged by the noble Queen Mother. She was stunned.

He froze and looked up at Empress Dowager Qin helplessly.

Seeing the tears rolling down Queen Mother Qin's cheeks and the indescribable sadness in Queen Mother Qin's eyes, Yan Lilan's back became stiffer and stiffer.

Why did you hug him all of a sudden?

He couldn't even pronounce the unfamiliar title of "aunt", but this aunt just hugged him familiarly?

This feeling is a bit...

It's a bit strange.

Really.

It’s really weird to be hugged and cry by a stranger you don’t know.

Yan Lilan wanted to break away from this unfamiliar embrace that was full of makeup and powder fragrance, but feeling how strong the arms of the person holding him were and listening to the sad sobs in his ears, he really couldn't push him away cruelly.

He always felt that the Queen Mother was like a porcelain that could easily break at this moment.

As long as he pushed the Queen Mother away with force, the Queen Mother would fall to the ground and break into pieces.

Yan Lilan bravely endured the hug from her strange aunt, turned her head cautiously, and asked Tan Aniu for help.

Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he met his brother's envious eyes.

Tan Aniu was indeed envious at this moment.

He had never been loved since he was a child. He was born a bitch that no one wanted. No one got close to him and no one wanted to talk to him, let alone being held in such a loving embrace.

In fact, he also longs to be hugged...

He also wants to be held by someone and listen to someone excitedly say to him, "You are the child I have cared about for many years..."
