Surprise!!! The Regent Princess is actually a hidden boss

Chapter 157 Condolences

When Ye Qingyan heard that she softened, a hint of success flashed in her eyes. It seemed that she was still the same as before. Just now, she almost thought that she had grown up.

She lowered her head and blinked twice quickly, and her eyes were immediately filled with tears. She whispered pitifully, "You are right. It's my fault. I shouldn't have harbored any illusions. I won't do that again."

After she finished speaking, she raised her head and tears flowed down her cheeks. Ye Qingyan hurriedly took out a handkerchief and quickly wiped away her tears.

Mo Qingzi felt even more guilty when she saw this.

Chu Qianyu saw this scene as soon as she came in. She knew Mo Qingzi. She had also seen her before when she went to see Mo Yinan for something, but the two of them had no intersection. So they were not familiar with each other. And now with Chu Qianyu's identity, she should not have seen Mo Qingzi before.

But what is Ye Qingyan doing again? Why did she run to Mo Qingzi crying?

Without waiting for her to think, Yunying took her forward and walked towards Concubine De. Concubine De was the most noble in the palace. Therefore, all matters related to the funeral of the empress dowager were presided over by her and Concubine Zhao.

When the old princess saw Chu Qianyu coming, she also looked at her with a smile.

Yunying and Chu Qianyu bowed to Concubine De, "Greetings, Concubine De."

"Get up quickly." Concubine De smiled and walked forward to help Yunying stand up.

Chu Qianyu bowed to the old princess on the side. The old princess smiled and asked her to get up. Then she said to Yunying apologetically, "I didn't know this happened suddenly. It's just that the marriages of the two children have been decided. It's not easy to change them at the last minute. Now we can only have a small wedding. When I think of this, I feel very sorry for Qianqian. I have wronged her."

Yunying glanced at Chu Qianyu, only to see her smiling and nodding, not seeming to mind at all. Then she said to the old princess, "It's okay, this was also an accident. As long as the two children are doing well, that's all."

"Don't worry, I will definitely not let Nan'er bully him after Qianqian gets married."

After they chatted for a while, the old princess finally remembered Mo Qingzi and wondered where this girl had gone.

Looking around the hall, she saw Mo Qingzi and Ye Qingyan chatting happily not far away. The old princess's face suddenly darkened when she saw this, and she said to the nanny beside her: "Go and call the young lady over for me."

Nanny Wang agreed and walked over quickly.

"Miss, the old lady is looking for you." After a few steps, she arrived in front of Mo Qingzi, and Nanny Wang stood beside her and whispered.

After hearing this, Ye Qingyan pulled her arm and the two of them looked very close. She smiled and said, "Since the old lady is looking for you, go quickly and don't make her anxious. Let's meet again in a few days."

"Okay, then I'll go first." Mo Qingzi nodded, turned and walked towards the old princess.

Nanny Wang followed behind and whispered, "How come Miss and Miss Ye get along so well?"

Mo Qingzi realized it belatedly. She didn't know why she had unconsciously become close to Ye Qingyan. She immediately became angry and said with an irritated look on her face, "I don't know either. Don't tell mother about this later."

"In fact, the old princess saw that you and Miss Ye were having a good chat, so she asked me to go and call you. So you should know the situation in advance."

"Well, I see."

As soon as Mo Qingzi arrived, she was pulled over by the old princess and introduced to Yunying and Chu Qianyu: "This is my daughter, Nan'er's sister. She has a quiet personality and I think she will be able to chat with Qianqian in the future."

Mo Qingzi then noticed the person in front of him. Her eyes widened and her gaze was instantly attracted to Chu Qianyu.

So this is my future sister-in-law, um...

She is pretty and seems a bit shy. It turns out my brother likes her like this. No wonder Ye Qingyan doesn't catch my brother's eye.

Chu Qianyu felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by her like that, and nodded at her with a smile.

Mo Qingzi finally came back to her senses and quickly said, "Future sister-in-law. I'm sorry."

When Chu Qianyu heard this name, a strange feeling flashed through her heart. She lowered her head and whispered, "Nothing."

The old princess patted Mo Qingzi's hand and said in a slightly annoyed tone, "Why are you so flustered? Have you forgotten all about etiquette?"

After what happened just now, Mo Qingzi felt a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, Concubine De said to everyone at the right time: "It's almost time now, let's go to the Linghua Palace where the Queen Mother is accommodated."

"Yes." Everyone agreed.

Concubine De walked out first, and everyone present followed in order of their status.

After arriving at Linghua Hall, Concubine De led everyone to the other side. The empress dowager's coffin was placed at the back, and the middle of the hall was blocked by a screen. On one side were officials, the emperor, and the princes and sons, and on the other side were the ladies who had arrived.

When Concubine De arrived here, several women had already arrived in front of her. They were princesses arranged by Concubine Zhao.

There are currently five princesses and one eldest princess in Canglan Kingdom who are now in the capital, and the other two have married off to other countries.

The eldest princess was born to the Empress Dowager and is a sibling of Prince Yu and the Emperor.

She looked sad, with red and swollen eyes, as if she had just cried. When she heard that Concubine De was coming with her people, she knelt in her place without even looking at them.

After everyone who came paid their respects to the princesses, they found their seats one by one and knelt down.

They knelt for most of the day, Chu Qianyu didn't think it was a big deal, but Yunying was different, as was Concubine De. They both looked a little unhappy, with beads of sweat on their foreheads.

Chu Qianyu raised her hand to gently support Yunying and whispered, "Mother, how are you?"

Yunying said in a weak voice, "It's nothing, I'm just a little tired. It will be over soon anyway. Just bear with it for a while."

Chu Qianyu took out a pill and handed it over, saying, "Mother, take this first. It will help relieve the pain."

"Okay." After Yunying took it and ate it,

Chu Qianyu waved to the maid beside Concubine De, signaling her to come over. She handed the pill she had just given to Yunying to her and whispered, "Let Concubine De take one of these. It will make her body feel better."

About a cup of tea later, the two looked visibly better than before.

After kneeling for another quarter of an hour, the princess finally stood up and looked at everyone and said, "Alright, it's almost time. Let's go back first. We'll come back after lunch and rest."

After saying that, he walked straight outside.

After hearing this, Chu Qianyu muttered to herself that if she had known earlier, she would not have killed the Queen Mother first, otherwise she would not have to kneel here for so long.

No, she didn't want to kneel any longer. What was the point of kneeling for this old lady for so long? She had to think of a solution.

Chu Qianyu looked at everyone in the hall, her mind spinning rapidly.

Concubine De was not feeling well to begin with, and she nearly fell when she stood up. Seeing this, Concubine Zhao stepped forward quickly, and said with a little concern: "Why don't you tell the princess that you are not feeling well again, so you can stop coming later."

Concubine De shook her head and said, "Forget it. Less trouble is worse than more. It will only be tiring for a few days. It will be fine after a while."

Concubine Zhao knew that it was difficult to persuade him, so she agreed and said, "Okay, but if you really can't hold on any longer, you must tell us in time."

"Do not worry."
