The Fourth Lady
Chapter 426 Birthday Party (Ⅰ)

Hearing what Qilian Yvran said, Qingyan seemed to be immersed in the memories of the past, but they couldn't live in the memory all the time, but could only keep moving forward. "Mother, we shouldn't be immersed in the past." Qingyan regained an indifferent look on her face.

Xuanyuan Yvzhen kept observing the expression on Qingyan's face as Qilian Yvran talked about the past. He had a feeling that Qingyan seemed to have experienced something like that too. But that was impossible. After all, Qingyan had never been to the Nanchen Kingdom.

After listening to Qingyan's words, Qilian Yvran realized that he had made a huge mistake. Looking at Qingyan, she said resignedly, "it's all my fault. I shouldn't have recalled the past."

"But the life you mentioned is so dreamy!" Shaoyao looked at Qilian Yvran with a smile and said regretfully, "unfortunately, the former empress of the Nanchen Kingdom was dead. I heard that on the night when the empress died, numberless wild animals roared and a circle of crows flew above the sky, as if to pay tribute to her."

"Okay!" Qilian Yvran seemed interested in what Shaoyao said. "I've been in the imperial palace for a long time and I've never heard of such things. Could you tell me about it?"

"Okay!" Shaoyao said with a smile.

Shaoyao told Qilian Yvran all the information she had got in the past. Qilian Yvran was curious why Shaoyao knew so many secret things, but thinking of her identity, it seemed that all the problems were solved.

It was not that Qingyan didn't know what had happened to her after she died. However, those things were no longer important to her. However, her resentment towards Qilian Qingyi and Weisheng Junyan could never be changed.

No matter what Weisheng Junyan had done to make up for her after she had died, what had happened had already happened, and no one could change anything.

Fortunately, her two children were still alive in this world.

She could also stand in the sun and appreciate the blue sky in the same way with her identity.

After Shaoyao had finished talking, Qilian Yvran started to talk slowly, "it's all my fault. If I hadn't insisted on stopping Yanyan from marrying Weisheng Junyan, then how could she end up like that?"

Hearing that, Qingyan shook her head as if she was saying it wasn't her fault.

When she had married Weisheng Junyan, she had thought of death, but in the end, she had known that she could only acceept it, which would result in ending her life in the fire. She could have been a virtuous mother of a country, but in the end, she was deemed to be a demon which had brought the disaster to the people.

However, all those things were in the past now.

When Shaoyao saw the surprised expression on Qilian Yvran's face, she recalled what Qingyan had said. Covering her mouth, Shaoyao asked, "are you the aunt of the deceased empress?"

Shaoyao was from the Wanshou Pavilion. She also admired the Wanshou Pavilion very much, especially Qilian Qingyan. But at that time, she didn't have the chance to stand by the side of Qilian Qingyan and work for her.

Now that Qilian Qingyan had become Su Qingyan, Shaoyo was able to work for her now.

"Yes, exactly." Holding the hand of Shaoyao, Qilian Yvran wrote three letters in her hand. Feeling the words on the palm of her hand, Shaoyao nodded at Qilian Yvran, "yes, I am."

Shaoyao belonged to the Wanshou Pavilion. In other words, the Third Prince had stood on the side of Xuanyuan Yvzhen.

"Mother, this is settled. What do you think?" Looking at Qilian Yvran, Qingyan said smilingly, "I'll prepare a big present for mother."

Hearing that, Qilian Yvran nodded, "I have promised you."

"Mother, if there is nothing else, we will leave first." Xuanyuan Yvzhenn asked sadly as he looked at the tired Qilian Yvran.

Looking at the group of people in front of her, Qilian Yvran waved at them and said, "I'm indeed a little tired today. Yanyan can still live the same place. Miner, don't go back these days. Just live here with me."

"Great!" With a smile on her face, Mu Zhimin looked at Qilian Yvran and said, "I have been waiting for you to say so."

After they left the Guanjv Palace, they walked side by side on the avenue lined with trees.

Looking at the surrounding scenery, Shaoyao smiled and said, "Junzhu, I haven't visited the imperial palace before. Now that I'm here, I can't take this opportunity to visit the imperial palace."

Seeing the expression on Shaoyao's face, Qingyan held her hand and said, "okay. I haven't strolled around the imperial palace before, and I don't know if fourth brother is willing to show us around." As Qingyan spoke, she looked at Xuanyuan Yvzhen who was standing behind her. "As long as Yanyan asks, I will agree." Xuanyuan Yvzhen said as he raised the corner of his mouth.

Xuanyuan Yvzhen took them to the imperial palace for a visit, but they didn't expect to see Xuanyuan Yvhui and Lumin together.

Xuanyuan Yvzhen stared at the two people not far away and remained silent to them. They all hid behind the rockery to see what was going on.

"Your Highness, you haven't come to see me lately." But you ignored me just because I was sent to the imperial palace."

Xuanyuan Yvhui looked at Lumin and said with a smile, "what are you talking about, Lumin? How can I not miss you? I miss you so much."

Then Lumin patted Xuanyuan Yvhui's hand and said, "Your Highness, you've promised me that you would marry me. I don't want to stay there all the time to see that bitch's face. She also said that she would make me marry the Crown Prince. But I only love you!" Xuanyuan Yvhui looked at the beauty in his arms and said with a smile, "don't worry. Your aunt is not easy to deal with. You have to know that my mother is a person who worships Buddha sincerely. She doesn't fight for anything."

Lumin looked at Xuanyuan Yvhui and pouted. "But I really miss you. If you ask, I can be your woman now."

Xuanyuan Yvhui grabbed Lumin's hand and said, "I told you not to be anxious. After all, I'm a playboy in their eyes, and it's not a big deal for me to ascend the throne."

Lumin knew that Xuanyuan Yvhui was not that simple as he looked. This was also the reason why she liked Xuanyuan Yvhui. She looked at him and said in a childish voice, "By then, can I be your empress?"☐☐☐☐
