Zhou Chen came out from Tuoba Xuan, turned his head and took a look, his face darkening little by little.

Although Tuoba Xuan did not admit it, Zhou Chen always felt that this matter was related to Tuoba Xuan.

He walked out of the gate, called the imperial guards at the door, and said in a deep voice: "Go and check who Tuoba Xuan has seen these days... Check his every move and every word, I want to know everything."

The Imperial Guard nodded: "Yes, I will go right away."

"And those envoys," Zhou Chen said in a deep voice, "I also want to know the whereabouts of all of them, who they talked to, who they looked at more, I want to know everything."

The Royal Guard nodded and left.

Zhou Chen raised his hand and rubbed his brow, muttering: "Why do you have to provoke Chen Fei when you can provoke anyone else..."

Their Majesty had gone through untold hardships to get Concubine Chen to his side, and he was reluctant to say a harsh word to her. He worshipped her like an ancestor, so how could he let anyone else get even a finger in her way?

This time, His Majesty is really angry, and some people may not be able to escape.

The Queen Mother's Office.

Lin Qingqing held the second prince in one hand and a rattle in the other, teasing the child and giggling from time to time.

The Queen Mother sat on the other side and stared at her for a while, unable to help but feel some emotion in her heart.

After what happened last time, Lin Qingqing really changed a lot. She became calmer, and her arrogant and domineering temperament also dissipated a lot, and she became gentler.

In the past, when she came to the Queen Mother's place, she often hugged the Second Prince, but she was very impatient most of the time. But after her serious illness, she seemed to have more patience with children, and the smile on her face was much more sincere than before.

The Queen Mother looked at him for a while and asked, "How are you feeling lately?"

Lin Qingqing raised her head and replied with a smile: "Thank you for your concern, mother. With the care of the imperial physician sent by Your Majesty, I have gotten much better and have gained a lot of weight recently."

The Queen Mother smiled and nodded: "That's good, you are still young, you must take good care of yourself."

Lin Qingqing nodded: "I understand."

As the two were talking, Zhou Ruo walked in from outside.

Seeing Lin Qingqing here, Zhou Ruo paused for a moment, then continued to smile and said, "Greetings, mother."

Then he looked at Lin Qingqing: "Sister Xianfei is here too."

After saying this, his eyes fell on the Second Prince and did not move away.

Lin Qingqing shook the rattle in her hand, making a ding-dong sound. When the sound stopped, she stood up holding the child and said, "Greetings, Her Majesty the Imperial Concubine."

Zhou Ruo's smile deepened: "You're welcome, Sister Xianfei."

After that, he took a step forward and reached out to hug the child in Lin Qingqing's arms: "This child has grown a little bit, and he is very heavy, right? Sister Xianfei has just recovered from a serious illness, don't tire yourself out."

The virtuous concubine tightened her grip on the child, then loosened her grip and let Zhou Ruo take the second prince away.

The second prince fell into Zhou Ruo's arms and whimpered twice. Zhou Ruo quickly held the child and began to coax him.

Lin Qingqing glanced at the child, pursed her lips, and said nothing.

After a while, Zhou Ruo finally coaxed the child. He looked up at the Queen Mother and Lin Qingqing, and said with a smile: "This child may be complaining that I, the Queen Mother, don't hold him enough. Every time he comes, he always makes trouble with me."

Lin Qingqing frowned, and looked at Zhou Ruo with a little more disgust.
