As he spoke, Concubine Rou covered her mouth and smiled, “I see that the child is lively and elegant, and is a very outstanding girl. If you like it, I will beg your father to tell you about the marriage.”
Seeing that his mother became more and more biased, Yan Liqing quickly interrupted her and lowered her head and said, “Mother is really thinking too much. She…she is just my friend and has no special relationship.”
After he finished speaking, he looked at Concubine Rou a little unnaturally.
Although Yan Liqing has been living alone for nearly ten years, she doesn’t often have the opportunity to come back to see Concubine Rou, but she knows that her son is better than her mother. Even if it’s just his look, Concubine Rou can tell what he means.
Now seeing that his son didn’t seem to want to break the window paper, Rou just lowered his head and smiled, and said to his son understandingly: “Qing’er, do you have anything to tell his mother?”
A sentence hit Yan Liqing’s thoughts. He thought about it and nodded.
“Mother, you also know that there are dangers in this deep palace that are not something that ordinary people can bear. Now Chu Nianhe is in this palace, and only by relying on the princess can you have a place to survive.”
His eyes were full of seriousness, and he continued, “Son… my son wants to ask for his mother. If he has the opportunity to help Chu Nianhe, he must help her. Don’t let the evil people assassinate her.”
Concubine Rou looked at her son’s serious expression and didn’t know what to say for a moment.
She had never seen her son look like this before. Although Yan Liqing has been fighting on the battlefield for many years and is a strong man, he has never whispered in front of Concubine Rou and never said anything so seriously.
Concubine Rou couldn’t help but deeply feel her son’s affection for this girl named Chu Nianhe.
“Qing’er, don’t worry, I like that child too,” Roufei patted Yan Liqing’s shoulder: “If there is someone I can help, I will not refuse.”

This is very different from the tenderness of the mother and filial son in Yuxiu Palace at this moment. In Fengxiang Palace, the queen was sitting on the chair in the middle of the main hall with annoyance, while Yan Lichen was sitting on her right side, with a very dark face.
The queen became more and more angry when she thought of Chu Nianhe’s annoying face. She looked at her son who was a little dejected and could hardly control her desire to scold him.
They are all their unsatisfactory sons. If they were a little cruel to Chu Nianhe and dealt with her earlier, would there be so many troubles now?
“You…” The queen could no longer hold back and would burst out with complaints.
Madam Zheng, who was standing by, saw that the queen was almost broken, quickly stuffed a stove into her hand and took advantage of the queen’s time to take advantage of the queen’s mood.When he looked back at her, he quickly shook his head at her.
The queen naturally knew what Madam Zheng meant, but what’s the use of maintaining superficial peace like this now? Chu Nianhe has already taken a big advantage in this matter, and he also brought the princess, Yan Liqing and others a hand. Now the emperor has obviously had a good impression of Yan Liqing. If this continues, what is the best thing?
“Chen’er,” the queen tried hard to suppress the anger in her chest and spoke, “How to go next? Do you have any plans?”
“What other plans can you do?” Yan Lichen still lowered his head: “The mother and queen have no choice, what can I do?”
The queen was still angry, but when she heard her son’s lonely voice, she felt a little distressed. After thinking about it, she got up and walked to her son, patted him on the shoulder and said, “I advise you not to think about Chu Nianhe.”
