️"Mu'er, you mean..."
The queen was silent for a moment. Just when Li Mu thought that something secret was involved and his mother was embarrassed to speak, he saw the queen sitting up from the couch.
Taking a few steps to get in front of Li Mu, the queen's eyes were full of interest: "If you are sure, please hurry up and invite someone to the palace for your mother and me."
"After all, I have only heard of your mother from the Supreme Emperor, but I have never seen her in person."
The Supreme Emperor was the empress. When she was in power, whenever she had nothing to do, she would often chat with the Queen, who was still the Crown Princess at that time.
Now that I had given up the throne to the emperor early, I, my husband, and I didn't know which prince's fiefdom I went to live their own lives.
Li Mu nodded: He should have guessed it a long time ago. How could his mother be so hesitant to speak because of some secret matter?
"Mom, there are just rumors."
After hearing what her son said, the queen immediately leaned back on the couch, rolled her eyes and said perfunctorily, "Oh."
"You're still bothering me with hearsay. I don't know how your father taught you."
"Mom, I came here to look for my mother because I thought there was a possibility."
"Oh..." Queen Xu didn't want to be deceived again, so her tone was a little more perfunctory.
Seeing that his mother was no longer willing to pay attention to him, Li Mu frowned and took a strong dose of medicine: "Mother, this is Mu'er's unmarried princess, An Lan."
"What?"
"What's wrong with An Lan?"
Li Mu finally realized that he was not as important to his mother as An Lan - he thought that his family would never have any conflicts like ordinary people.
If he does something inappropriate, his own mother will come to settle accounts with him first.
While Li Mu was stunned, the queen had already become serious. She had already sat up from the couch, sat on a chair nearby, and took a sip of tea.
"You mean, you suspect that Lan'er has traveled through time?" He poured the last bit of tea root into his son's cup, and the queen got up to get new tea. "Is it because of the rumors spreading outside?"
"Well, Mu'er just thinks that An Lan has changed and is not like he used to be." Li Mu nodded. Now An Lan seems to have changed his personality.
Although the cheerfulness in An Lan's character now makes Li Mu feel more at ease, and it is what Li Mu has always hoped for An Lan to have, Li Mu knows that An Lan will not become what he is today overnight.
"Then it's impossible to be reborn?"
After hearing this, Li Mu wanted to say something: Mom, have you read too much in the book?
"I hope not, Mu'er." The queen read the script, and Li Mu'er also listened to a lot of it, and knew that if An Lan was reborn, the growth brought about in one day would naturally be the misfortune of many days and nights behind it.
"oh."
"Your boy does care about the girl's family..." the Queen said with disdain, "You are not like your father, who has a big head and only likes to fight against me day by day."
"Um."
Regarding whether his father doted on his mother and whether his mother disliked his father, Li Mu said that he did not want to speak...
After all, if you talk too much, you will be the one who suffers in the end.
"Okay, if you want to hear about what happened back then, you can follow me to find the Emperor." The Queen said, putting down the tea cup, "I said I have been back to the palace these past two days, and your mother and I just want to hear some fun from various places. "
Li Mu nodded in agreement, and the mother and son set off from Qingning Palace. There was no carriage, and they just walked and chatted along the way.
Of course, Li Mu said almost nothing. The queen spoke alone throughout the whole process, and from time to time she would criticize the emperor, Li Mu and his son for their petty problems.
"I heard that you kicked out a dancer earlier. Why are you treating her so rudely?" The queen suddenly said, "Even if she is a dancer, it is a legitimate profession, but you don't like it." Just quit, where can anyone do that?"
