The palace maid obviously didn't expect that Ye Lan would do such a thing. She was stunned for a moment, and seemed to be a little unwilling to give up. She continued: "County Master, why do you need to go to your majesty? If you go to the queen, your majesty will definitely not say anything more."

The palace maid is still fighting for it, but Yelan's attitude is already a little impatient, "Your Majesty won't say anything, can you, a mere palace maid, guarantee it?"

"..."

The palace maid wanted to say something else, but Yelan immediately shouted: "Don't you understand what I say? I said, I only listen to His Majesty's words. If anything happens, I will go directly to His Majesty."

"..."

Now, the palace maid dared not say anything.

After all, Yelan has moved out of His Majesty's house. It would be too obvious if he continues to struggle. She had no choice but to say: "Then Lord, please wait a moment. I will go back to report to the Queen now."

Yelan waved his hand, "Go quickly."

The palace maid standing outside stamped her feet in front of the closed door, seeming very displeased. She did not expect that Ye Lan would actually refuse to see the Queen.

I am the empress’s wife, so I didn’t invite Yelan over. I don’t know if the empress will...

Based on Ye Lan's words, can he handle the Queen?

The palace maid didn't know either, but Yelan's attitude couldn't be changed. In the end, she had no choice but to go to the queen's palace and tell the queen what Yelan said intact.

After listening to the maid's story, the queen couldn't help but laugh, "Okay... This Ye Lan still has some courage. He didn't make the decision himself, but kicked the ball to His Majesty."

"Mother, Ye Lan deliberately didn't want to offend Concubine De, so she probably used my father as an excuse. She is very smart."

King Qin sat aside and squinted his eyes, unable to help but smile.

The queen snorted, but she didn't dislike Yelan's cleverness. Anyway, this also proved one thing, that is, Yelan had no particular preference for her and Concubine De.

That's fine.

Everyone is showing off their powers to see who can get His Majesty's approval. As long as His Majesty can allow them to see Yelan here, then everything will probably be stable.

"Mother, what should we do next? Should we ask our father for instructions?" King Qin turned around and asked the queen.

The Queen thought for a while and said softly: "Yes, go now. That bitch will receive the news soon. We must go to His Majesty immediately before she receives the news and strike first."

She had been fighting with Concubine De Gui for so many years.

Concubine De Gui had been keeping a close eye on her. If there was any slight disturbance, Concubine De Gui would know about it. There was no reason that Concubine De Gui would not care at all about Ye Lan.

Now, Concubine De Gui probably doesn’t know anything. She only knows that she sent someone to find Yelan, and before anyone reported it to her, if she goes to the imperial study now, she will definitely be better than Concubine De Gui...

Thinking of this, the queen immediately took charge of the study without any hesitation.

In the imperial study room, she soon met her husband.

……

Concubine De Gui, on the other hand, finally learned Ye Lan's answer to the queen.

Concubine De Gui threw the things at hand in disbelief, "What are you talking about, Yelan is using His Majesty as a shield?"

"Yes……"

King Yi on the side narrowed his eyes, "So now, Yelan has not gone to the Queen. It seems that she does not want to embarrass our aristocratic family."

But Concubine De Gui was not in such a good mood. Instead, she clutched her handkerchief and became even more irritated: "Hurry up... I have to go to the imperial study immediately."

She must go to see His Majesty quickly.

However, King Yi had a puzzled expression on his face: "Concubine, what are you doing in such a hurry to find Father? Is there something wrong with what you said late at night..."

He didn't understand anything at first, but suddenly he realized it and looked at his mother-in-law, "Mother-in-law, do you mean..."

"Yes, the queen, that old and immortal woman, must have gone to the imperial study room to meet with His Majesty. We can't let her take the lead."

King Yi also knew the seriousness of the matter and immediately said: "Don't worry, mother and concubine, my father may not..."

Before King Yi could finish what he said, a palace maid from outside hurried in. She was very anxious. She staggered a few steps and fell in front of Concubine De.

Concubine De Gui took a closer look and realized that this was the person she had arranged near the imperial study. She quickly walked down the steps and grabbed her collar, "Tell me, what happened in the imperial study!"

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty has agreed to the queen's request to meet the county lord."

"what!"

After hearing these words, Concubine De Gui suddenly showed a fierce expression, threw the palace maid away, gritted her teeth and said: "This... what does it mean... Could it be that His Majesty chose the Queen and wants King Qin to marry Yelan? But King Qin has the right to do so. If you are already a concubine, do you want Ye Lan to be your concubine?"

Concubine De Gui really couldn't understand this.

King Yi also realized that the current situation was a bit confusing. After thinking about it, he stepped forward to hold Concubine De Gui's hand and said softly: "Concubine, don't worry, things may not be as bad as you think. It's better to meet my father now. Your Majesty, go and test your father’s tone, don’t be deceived by the Queen.”

Sure enough, her son's words were able to calm Concubine De Gui down. She was silent for a while, and then patted King Yi's hand, "You are right. You can't mess up the situation yet. The plan continues."

"Don't worry, mother and concubine. Since my father has given such a signal, there is no reason to decide the winner now. Wouldn't that be too unfair to us?"

"So, there's still room for maneuver."

Concubine De Gui was completely relieved after hearing King Yi's words. She nodded, left her palace and came to the imperial study.

However, she did not see her husband in front of the imperial study room because the guards blocked her.

When Concubine De Gui saw this formation, her heart suddenly went cold. Did she have to calculate that she would be killed here before she took action?

That would be too unfair to the Aristocratic Family Faction, right?

"Your Majesty refuses to see me?"

Concubine De Gui calmed down and asked the guard in front of her.

The guard did not show the cold expression she had imagined, but said softly: "Your Majesty is a little tired now and doesn't want to see others, but he has given you an order. If Concubine De Gui comes over and wants to see the county lord, you can go ahead."

Concubine De Gui suddenly showed an expression of joy when she heard such words.

She felt relaxed, and sure enough, there was still room for maneuver.

His Majesty could not have sentenced them to death right from the beginning, so this time he had to compete fairly with the Queen.

But she still has great advantages over the queen.

King Qin has a concubine, but King Yi does not.

Therefore, if Ye Lan is smart, she would know that in this situation, the only person she can choose is her son King Yi.
