Mrs. Ding sighed slightly, "The sons and elders of the family don't think so. Don't be afraid..."

Huilan sneered, "What do I have to be afraid of? I'm so proud that I gave birth to three sons and a daughter. I can't bear them all in one litter."

They used me as a chess piece to gain wealth in the palace, and now they want to take advantage of it. Why? I have suffered so many grievances and runs in these years. Have the Ding family ever said a word to me? Have they ever paid a little for me? We are married. If my mother can’t be relied on, who can I rely on?

Now I am in charge, not the Ding family. You have to kneel down and thank me for whatever I give you. If I don't give it to you, you can't take it, otherwise you will be beaten.

I forgot to tell you that I brought down the Zhou family, I killed Zhou Ying, and I killed the Li sisters and the Xu family with my own hands. Don’t mess with me. I don’t mind letting the Ding family dismiss their official duties and return to their hometown to farm. This way Without the exclusive power of my relatives, my god-brother's life would be smoother.

Some of the emperors who have ascended the throne since ancient times have really taken care of their mother's and natal families. Stop dreaming about big things. The more responsible you are, the longer you will live. Take my words back to them and their son. This is my intention and the emperor's intention. , If you want to be promoted, you should have been promoted early, you don’t have to wait until today.”

Huilan sneered, not giving the Ding family any face at all. You sacrificed your daughter back then, and now I have repaid the Ding family's kindness and I don't owe you anything.

Mrs. Ding's face turned pale, and she knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Yes, I will definitely report it."

"Go back. Relying on your son's studies to make progress is the right way. Nepotism will not last long. I'm afraid that if I kick you, you will all be liquidated. You won't get anything even if you don't meet the Lin family. Use your brain and think about it."

Huilan rolled her sleeves and entered the house, no longer talking to her sister-in-law.

Li Chengze's biological mother, the Lin family, did not receive any high-ranking officials or generous salaries, but she was safe. The official positions of the children of the Lin family were not high, reaching the fourth rank.

Mrs. Ding sighed and stood up. Ding Xiang stepped forward and helped her out.

"Slave to you. Madam, when you got married, the master had already favored her. You don't know that she has suffered a lot in these years and almost died several times. The Ding family has never done anything to help her, and now she can still rely on the reputation of the queen. If everything goes smoothly, that's good.

The last time the old lady came here, she never asked her master whether she had been hardworking these years, whether her life was good, or whether her children were well. It chills my heart."

Ding Xiang could see clearly that the Ding family was too cold-blooded, and every show of kindness was for the sake of benefits, rather than sincere concern for Huilan and her son.

Mrs. Zhou even paid a dowry to save her daughter, but the master had to struggle on his own. If he failed, he would be nothing but a cup of loess. I wonder how many of them would sincerely pay her respects.

Mrs. Ding was said to be ashamed and unconcerned about matters that did not concern her. In fact, she had the same mentality as everyone else. When considering problems, she first thought about how much benefit she could get from her family instead of caring about the queen.

Over the years, she was very unhappy that her husband had been secretly buying properties for Huilan, but she didn't say anything. After all, the Queen had brought a lot of benefits to the family. The reason why her children could get married well was because of the Queen's name. admit.

Looking back now, it turns out that she and the Ding family didn't do a good enough job, which made the queen feel cold. She no longer relied on the Ding family, but made a way out on her own. She didn't even rely on the Ding family for her children. Indeed, the Ding family was not qualified to ask for benefits. .

Mrs. Ding said with difficulty, "I understand."

Only then did Ding Xiang smile, "Keep it the same as before. The younger generations may get some benefits from interacting with each other. The capable descendants will definitely be able to get ahead. If you don't understand current affairs, don't blame the Queen for taking action. You said it was to protect the family." For the sake of the family, it is better to keep our sons."

She pursed her lips and showed a confident smile, believing that Mrs. Ding would carefully discuss with the Ding family how to act in the future when she returns.

Ding Xiang returned to Kunning Palace after seeing off Mrs. Ding. Huilan was copying and writing scriptures, "Have you been beaten before you send her away?"

"Don't worry, I've explained everything thoroughly."

"Well, that's good. If you don't put in any effort and still want to take advantage of it, what are you dreaming about?"

Huilan sneered.

Ding Xiang poured her a cup of warm tea and offered it to her, "Don't be angry, our Sister Xin is not someone who can be manipulated by others, she is very powerful."

"It's better for girls to be more powerful to avoid being bullied. Dingxiang, if I'm no longer here, you can go find Sister Xin and ask her to take care of you in your old age. Qiuyun's aunt has been working steadily in the palace, so I'll keep her here." Give it to godbrother.

I want to leave little Yuanzi to Sister Xin, and we can see whoever he wants to go with. If not, he can be the housekeeper of Brother Zhuo."

Ding Xiang shook her head unhappily, "Why did you talk about this? I'm not even 70 or 80 years old, so I can't walk very well."

Huilan put down her pen and smiled, "If I make arrangements early, I can feel at ease. Isn't this just a rush of words?"

"I can't help you, I'm going to see Brother Lian."

Ding Xiang rolled her eyes at Huilan and ran to play with Brother Lian. She didn't worry about the issue of old age care at all. She took care of all four children. Huilan was also a person who loved and cherished her slaves. Those old people who came from the East Palace , no one worries about these things.

The four young masters all have consciences. As long as the slave does not commit suicide, they can give you face and a way out.

Huilan smiled and shook her head and continued to copy the scriptures.

I have stopped practicing these years, and no matter what I do, I don’t feel like I have advanced at all. The only thing I can do is to continue to refine my soul.

She didn’t let her children inherit her ability to refine medicine and elixirs. There was no need. They could do whatever they liked. If they wanted to fight for power, they could do it on their own. If they won or lost, don’t complain or cry. Even if they lost their lives, they should take it. recognize.

Success or failure is the same for everyone. I am a queen and a monk but not the king of heaven. I can control everything. I have the final say on my own destiny.

Maybe it's because I gave birth to four children. One is a baby Gada, and the four are definitely not baby eggs. I wish I had picked them up or thrown them all away.

Slowly, Huilan also let go of her worries about the children, and concentrated on copying scriptures and studying medicinal scriptures. She read more books in Wenyuan Pavilion, her mood became harmonious, and her demeanor became more calm and calm.

Sister Xin went out to play, and the room became much calmer. My daughter is my mother's little cotton-padded jacket, and she feels more lively in this room.

Brother Qian led Brother Zhuo back.

"Why are you two back? Didn't you say you were taking martial arts classes?"

Huilan put down her pen and dried her handwriting.

Brother Gan ran over and put his arm around her shoulders, "We were afraid that you would feel uncomfortable and miss your sister, so we came back early to stay with you. Liu Niang said there would be meat to eat today. Brother Zhuo couldn't wait to come back."

Qingxu Temple and Medicine Master Palace will send some monster meat and spiritual rice over after a while.

"You are so greedy, why don't you miss me?"

Huilan glanced at her son and snorted.

"Mom, I want to eat meat."

Brother Zhuo ran out of Brother Lian's room, grabbing Huilan's arm and shaking it gently.

"Look, your brother is still honest."
