The Eldest Daughter Is Beautiful and Saucy
Chapter 1098: clean
Chapter 1098 Innocence
Queen Mother Yan’s pupils trembled after hearing Murong Li’s words…
If Murong Yan and the Emperor of the Great Zhou had no children, Queen Mother Yan would naturally believe in Murong Yan wholeheartedly and be willing to entrust everything to Murong Yan!
But… Murong Yan has a child, and she is also a person with a child. How can she not understand the thoughts of parents? Which parent doesn’t want to give the best things in the world to their children?
Murong Yan has no children, so he will love Ah Li as his own child and is naturally willing to make sacrifices for Ah Li. But what will happen next? When his child is born, what will Ah Li do?
Queen Mother Yan didn’t distrust Murong Yan. She didn’t distrust human nature and didn’t trust Bai Qingyan.
She shook her head, her thoughts turning over and over again in her mind before she spoke: “How could mother not believe your uncle? Mother is afraid… that the Queen of the Great Zhou will use your uncle’s child to threaten your uncle!”
Queen Mother Yan looked at Murong Yan and said, “When the time comes, one is my own flesh and blood, and the other… is my sister-in-law and nephew. Your uncle… will inevitably waver in his loyalty to the State of Yan and his love for you.”
Murong Yan recalled that when talking about the merger of the two countries, A Li had told Murong Yan to oppose it and to put on a show in front of Queen Dowager Yan. Originally, Murong Yan felt guilty and felt that he had deceived his family and felt bad.
Now it seems that Ali is the one who understands his mother best.
“Mother!” Murong Li felt that his mother’s words were heartbreaking. “The Bai family… The Queen Mother of Great Zhou has noble character! She would never use her children to threaten anyone! I deeply respect the character of the Bai family. Mother, you can’t doubt the Queen Mother of Great Zhou like this, and you shouldn’t doubt Uncle Jiu based on your own imagination! Could it be that… Uncle Jiu must remain single for the sake of the State of Yan and never have his own children in order to be loyal to Great Yan? And to love me? Mother… What kind of perverse logic is this?”
“Sister-in-law, A Yan has done nothing wrong to Yan State. On the contrary, it is for Yan State that I have let Qing Yan down many times!” Murong Yan tightened his fists at his side and spoke solemnly, “A Yan has never done anything to let down the people of Yan State and A Yan before. I am willing to swear that in the future… I will never do anything to let down the people of Yan State and A Yan. Can you feel at ease now?”
When Queen Mother Yan heard this, her throat churned, and she said, “Sister-in-law, didn’t you say that if you are loyal to Yan State and A Li, A Yan must never marry and never have children of his own! It’s just… your wife cannot be from the enemy country, let alone the emperor of the enemy country! When your brother was alive… he intended to marry Meng Zhaorong, the daughter of Minister Meng, to you. A Yan married Meng Zhaorong as his concubine, got married and had children… This is what your brother wanted to see! This way, sister-in-law can also rest assured…”
“Mother!” Murong Li opened his round eyes, “Hasn’t Uncle Jiu paid enough for the Kingdom of Yan? Why should Uncle Jiu sacrifice his lifelong happiness in exchange for Mother’s peace of mind? Mother, we are Uncle Jiu’s relatives… It’s not that the court officials and the enemy country have to restrict each other in cooperation, why force Uncle Jiu like this? Mother, what’s wrong with you? Sister Bai and Uncle Jiu love each other, and they…”
Murong Yan raised his hand to stop Murong Li from talking any further, and just looked at his sister-in-law: “I thought…sister-in-law and brother are deeply in love, and they naturally understand that if they truly love each other, there will be no room for others in between.”
The Queen Mother of Dayan clutched the handkerchief tightly: “You and the Emperor of the Great Zhou have actually come to this point!”
“Back then, mother devoted herself to a man and ended up like that. After that… my brother and I swore that as long as she was the wife we chose, we would only seek one person for the rest of our lives and never betray her!” Murong Yan’s face was calm. “Otherwise, as the emperor of Yan, my brother’s harem… wouldn’t only have my sister-in-law and the imperial concubine! The reason why my brother has a second prince born out of wedlock is because my sister-in-law listened to my brother from my mother’s family… She thought that as the queen, it was her duty to help the emperor have more children, so she lied to my brother and gave my sister-in-law a chance.”
Later, Murong Yu ruthlessly drove Empress Dowager Yan’s concubine sister out of the palace. It was not until the second prince Murong Ping was born that Murong Yu brought the child back to the palace and Empress Dowager Yan’s concubine sister back to the palace in order not to embarrass the second prince. However, over the years… Murong Yu gave honor to the second prince’s biological mother, but never set foot in her bedroom.
Hearing Murong Yan’s words, Queen Mother Yan thought of her deceased husband, her heart ached, she clutched her clothes tightly at her chest and cried out.
“Ayan will only have Bai Qingyan as his wife in this life. He will never marry again, let alone take concubines. Please don’t make things difficult for Ayan.” Murong Yan kowtowed to his sister-in-law. “Ayan has said everything that needs to be said. Please do as brother and A Li do…believe in Ayan. If sister-in-law still can’t believe in Ayan, there’s nothing Ayan can do! I can only apologize to brother after I die…”
After saying this, Murong Yan stood up and bowed deeply to Queen Dowager Yan again.
“Ayan!”
“Uncle Nine!” Murong Li looked at his Uncle Nine with red eyes. He watched Uncle Nine turn and leave. He almost couldn’t hold back his tears. He turned back to look at his mother and said, “Mother, you really hurt Uncle Nine’s heart.”
“Mother doesn’t disbelieve in your uncle! Mother just doesn’t believe in the Great Zhou Emperor! Now your uncle has fallen deeply in love with the Great Zhou Emperor, who knows if he will…” Queen Mother Yan hesitated and looked at Murong Li with tears in her eyes, “Mother… Mother is afraid that she can’t protect the country left by your father!”
“Mother! Not to mention that father originally wanted to pass the throne to uncle Jiu! Father and uncle Jiu’s ambition… has never been to protect Yan State, but to unify the world!” Murong Li held his mother’s hands, “Mother, you should believe me, you should believe uncle Jiu, because we are a family, and in uncle Jiu’s heart… family is the most important.”
Queen Mother Yan looked at her son’s appearance and did not say anything to embarrass him, but in her heart… she was still worried. After all… the current Emperor of the Great Zhou was also Murong Yan’s family member, and she was pregnant with his child.
Queen Mother Yan held her son and cried for a while. She was tired from traveling for days and was not in good health, so she fell asleep with the help of her personal maid.
Murong Li sat on the edge of the bed, watching his mother sleeping with tears in her eyes. He remembered what his father had said before he passed away, when he planned to pass the throne to his ninth uncle… His mother was weak in character and easily influenced. If he was gone and his mother couldn’t handle the situation… and his eldest brother couldn’t be counted on, he would be the only one to count on to help his ninth uncle.
However, unexpectedly… Uncle Jiu burned his father’s imperial edict of succession and gave the throne to him. He didn’t even care about the bad reputation recorded in history books after his death. He used his body to block all the darkness and filth, just to keep him, the Emperor of Yan, innocence.
