After being reborn, he was doted on by his scumbag brother.

Chapter 187 Lin Qingyao’s attitude

Lin Qingyao was stunned when she heard this, and looked at Xiao Qingning. Neither of them expected Zhou Menglin to ask such a question.

Lin Qingyao was in a dilemma at the moment. She could neither directly clarify her relationship with Jamel Xiao nor say anything bad about him.

Lin Qingyao's face turned red and she said softly: "This...His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince is naturally excellent."

Lin Qingyao thought for a long time and could only say something ambiguous.

No matter what, it is always right to praise Jamel Xiao.

Zhou Menglin was very happy to see Lin Qingyao praising her son. She was about to continue asking but was stopped by Xiao Qingning.

"Mother, are you asking too directly? In front of you, Yao'er can still say whether Fifth Brother is good or not, but you can't praise your son in disguise like you."

Zhou Menglin smiled when she heard this, "You girl, you are always misinterpreting my words. Is that what I meant?"

Xiao Qingning held Zhou Menglin's arm and whispered: "Mother, my daughter knows what you are thinking, but if you ask Yao'er like this, even if you think fifth brother is good, you are too embarrassed to say it directly. Yao'er's meaning was already obvious just now, If you continue to ask questions, this situation will be embarrassing."

Xiao Qingning knew Lin Qingyao's difficulties, so she sent a message to Zhou Menglin for her, hinting at Lin Qingyao's attitude towards Jamel Xiao.

Zhou Menglin understood the meaning of her daughter's words, smiled and nodded, secretly happy in her heart.

It seems that the rumors outside cannot be fully believed. Lin Qingyao does not have that intention towards Xiao Jingyi, but rather has a good impression of Xuan'er.

Zhou Menglin was very happy and said to Lin Qingyao with a smile: "Yaoer, come to the palace more often when you have time. If you want, you can go to my palace with Ning'er. I will order someone to prepare food for you."

Lin Qingyao was a little flattered by Zhou Menglin's enthusiasm and quickly nodded in agreement.

After getting along today, Lin Qingyao found that Zhou Menglin still liked her very much, and she felt relieved.

Zhou Menglin had found out everything she wanted to know today, so she left first.

After coming out of Ningxiang Hall, Zhou Menglin went to the Imperial Study Room and told Xiao Yuchen what she had found out today.

Xiao Yuchen was overjoyed after hearing this, "If that's the case, then it's just what we want, and we don't have to worry about it anymore."

Zhou Menglin smiled and nodded, "Yes, I know Xuan'er's wishes. Since the girl of the Lin family also has this idea, it will happen sooner or later."

"Then we don't have to push too hard, let the children get along more, and let's wait for their good news."

Zhou Menglin smiled softly, "Your Majesty is right, this will save us from worrying about their affairs."

"Zi Tong, you should also pay attention to the children's situation occasionally. If everything goes smoothly, we don't need to intervene. If there is any accident in the middle, it won't be too late for me to step in to solve the problem."

Zhou Menglin nodded when she heard this, "Yes, Your Majesty, I will pay attention to it."

The emperor and the empress had settled a matter of concern, but Lin Qingyao and Xiao Qingning seemed to be surviving the disaster.

As soon as Zhou Menglin left, the two of them collapsed on their chairs and kept breathing.

After resurrecting her life, Lin Qingyao thought that her heart was strong enough, but when she faced Zhou Menglin's inquiry, she realized that she was still far from it.

As the mother of a country, Zhou Menglin has a very strong aura. Even though her face is soft when she speaks, she still gives people an inexplicable sense of oppression.

Especially when Zhou Menglin looked directly into her eyes, Lin Qingyao always felt that she would be seen through.

But in fact, it was all because Lin Qingyao had a guilty conscience, and Zhou Menglin didn't see anything at all.

"Ning'er, do you think the Queen believes what we say?"

Xiao Qingning thought for a moment, "Based on my understanding of the Queen Mother, I should believe it."

Lin Qingyao breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, "That's good. I don't know why she suddenly asked about this today. I didn't know how to answer it just now."

"I'm also puzzled. She rarely comes to see me. And don't you think that the queen mother came today just to ask you these things? She said she came to see me, but she didn't care about me at all. I don’t care, but I’m pulling you to ask questions.”

Lin Qingyao agreed upon hearing this, "I feel the same way. She came not long after I sat down, as if she had been waiting for me. Ning'er, don't you think she discovered something?"

"Probably not. If Queen Mother really knew something, she wouldn't easily believe what we just said. However, I have thought of a possibility."

When Lin Qingyao saw that Xiao Qingning was still trying to keep things secret, she said angrily, "What is it? Tell me quickly."

Seeing Lin Qingyao's anxious look, Xiao Qingning chuckled, "This is just a guess on my part. Queen Mother has always liked you. Now that my fifth brother has reached the age to discuss marriage, she may want you to do it." Her daughter-in-law."

Lin Qingyao didn't think in this direction. After all, Jamel Xiao was a noble prince and the legitimate son of the middle palace. His wife, the Queen, would definitely choose carefully.

"You are overthinking it. The Queen may just be asking casually."

Xiao Qingning disagreed and said with a smile: "According to what I know about the Queen Mother, she will not ask about this kind of thing casually. She must have her purpose. But you don't have to worry. Judging from the Queen Mother's reaction, she will treat you She is very satisfied. Isn't this a good thing? You will become her daughter-in-law sooner or later."

Lin Qingyao was a little embarrassed when she heard this and said angrily: "What are you talking about? It's still early."

Xiao Qingning looked at Lin Qingyao's reddish cheeks and chuckled: "Isn't that a matter of time? Now it seems that at least the queen mother will have no problem."

Although Lin Qingyao didn't know Zhou Menglin's purpose, she always felt that it was not as simple as Xiao Qingning thought.

But she couldn't guess the Queen's thoughts. In any case, the Queen would not harm her, so let's think in a good direction first.

Lin Qingyao nodded, "I hope so."

As soon as Lin Qingyao returned to Yaotai Pavilion, Qiu Han came to report that Lin Qingwan asked her to come over.

"Did eldest sister say what happened?"

Qiu Han shook his head, "No, Sister Chunmei just said that the eldest lady has something to do with you, and asked you to go there when you come back."

"Okay, then you can come with me to Wanyue Pavilion."

"Yes, ma'am."

Lin Qingwan greeted Lin Qingyao as soon as he entered the door, and held Lin Qingyao's hand warmly.

"Yao'er, you're here, come here and warm yourself up."

"Sister, what's going on? I just came back from the palace and rushed here."

Lin Qingwan chuckled when she heard this, "Look, it's not an urgent matter, just take your time."

Lin Qingyao held Lin Qingwan's arm and said coquettishly: "Sister Chunmei didn't say what it was. Why don't I just come and take a look? How dare I not take sister's matter seriously."
