Chapter 218 Having trouble sleeping and eating
Now that the serious matters were settled, Zhu Cheng asked everyone else to go back and rest, and they left one after another.

Miao and several other concubines followed Pang Yuzhen, but she looked back every few steps. She was more than a body length slower than the others, but she didn't dare to speak.

Zhu Yu watched from the side and couldn't bear it, so he called out to Zhu Cheng before he stepped out of the door.

"Father," she said politely to Zhu Cheng, "I haven't seen mother for a long time. I missed her so much today. I wonder if you could ask mother to stay for a while so that we can both express our longing for each other."

Zhu Cheng turned his head to look at Miao. Seeing that her eyes were still red and she looked like she was trying hard to hold back tears, he sighed and nodded. "Then you can stay and talk to our daughter. If the conversation gets late, you can stay overnight in Liyuan."

He paused, hesitated for a moment, and added, "While they are staying in the mansion, if you want to see Zhu Yu anytime, just come and find her."

Miao was pleasantly surprised and quickly thanked Zhu Cheng, her voice choked with sobs.

Pang Yuzhen pulled Zhu Ning, who was kneeling on the ground, up with a grim look on her face, brushed off the dust on her skirt, and walked out together. When she passed by Lu Qing, she looked him up and down.

Lu Qing stood there as if he didn't notice.

When Zhu Ning was pulled away by her mother, her eyes were always glued to Zhu Yu's dress, and she seemed to be in a bad mood.

After everyone else left, only Miao, Lu Qing and Zhu Yu were left in the guest hall. She seemed a little embarrassed in front of Lu Qing, probably because she was used to being bullied in Prince Shuo's mansion. Suddenly, she saw her son-in-law, a nobleman who even Zhu Cheng had to be polite to. As a mother-in-law, she was at a loss as to what to do.

She couldn't hide her emotions at all, and Lu Qing could see them clearly. So, in order to make Miao feel more at ease, he said to Zhu Yu, "You haven't seen your mother-in-law for a long time. I'll ask Fu Wen to clean up an empty room. You can chat for as long as you want."

"Okay." Zhu Yu nodded with a smile. She really wanted to have a good chat with Miao. Besides missing her after not seeing her for a long time, there were of course some other things.

Fu Wen was a quick man. After receiving the order, he immediately went to clean up an empty room and asked the servants in Prince Shuo's mansion to bring a pot of sweet tea and some snacks to the guest room.

They hadn't finished their meal yet when the eldest daughter of the Zhu family made a scene. After such a long time, the mistress must be hungry.

After preparing these, Lu Qing went back to his room alone, leaving Zhu Yu and her daughter to talk in the room. Fu Wen Fu Lu stood guard at the door very consciously so that they could speak with less scruples.

Miao was still holding the bundle of clothes in her arms. When she entered the house, only the two of them were left. Tears began to fall from her eyes. She carefully placed the bundle on the table, as if she was afraid that she would break it if she moved too much. Then she reached out and gently stroked Zhu Yu's cheek: "Mother thought I would never have the chance to see you again...

I didn't expect you to come back and bring your husband with you.

Just now, when I saw your rosy complexion and your good spirits, I felt relieved."

"Mother, don't worry. I'm living very well in Jin State. My life is comfortable and my husband treats me very well." Zhu Yu helped Miao sit down and sat beside her affectionately, holding Miao's hand. "Mother, how come you've lost so much weight after not seeing you for a few months?

If you don't take good care of yourself, your daughter will not be able to eat or sleep well in Jin Country."

"No, no," Miao quickly wiped her tears, as if making a promise, "Mother sees that you are doing so well this time. You will definitely have a good appetite in the future. You will soon make up for the little you lost before! When the emperor arranged the marriage, the princess and the prince cried and were reluctant to marry Zhu Ning, saying that the Xiaoyao King had a bad reputation. She didn't hide these things from others. I was listening to them from the side.

Later, the prince was indeed softened by the princess's tears and asked you to marry according to the emperor's order. I was born in a humble family and did not have the princess's ability. I could not stop her and thought I would have to watch my daughter being pushed into the fire pit...

Now I see that it was really God who opened his eyes and did not want my daughter to suffer. Not only were the rumors about King Xiaoyao untrue, he was also such a heroic and handsome man, and such a perfect match for my daughter!
My heart as a mother suddenly felt at ease!"

After she finished speaking, she looked out the door, as if there was something on the tip of her tongue that she didn't dare to say.

"Mother, the people outside are Lu Qing's personal guards. They are trustworthy. With them guarding the door, you can say whatever you want. No one will dare to eavesdrop." Zhu Yu saw Miao's concerns.

Upon hearing this, Miao seemed even more excited: "Prince Xiaoyao even lets you call him by his first name like that? It seems my daughter will be truly doted upon after her marriage! This is truly wonderful!"

If it were before, Zhu Yu might not have reacted much to this, but when she heard Miao's sigh just now, the conversation between the two of them that night emerged in her mind. She felt a sense of awkwardness for no reason, and her cheeks became hot.

This reaction naturally did not escape Miao's eyes. She felt relieved at the moment, knowing that her son-in-law's men were guarding the door and she did not have to worry about Pang Yuzhen's eyes and ears. She relaxed a lot, but still lowered her voice slightly and said to Zhu Yu: "You have been in Jin State these days and don't know what's going on at home.

The princess has been unable to sleep or eat well recently because of Zhu Ning's marriage.

The princess was reluctant to marry her to Jin Kingdom at first because she wanted to find a more reliable and decent marriage for her.

Originally everyone thought that this should not be difficult, but the man who wanted to marry Zhu Ning was looked down upon by the princess, and when the princess finally found someone she liked, he looked down upon Zhu Ning too.

You're so stuck in this situation. You've been married for several months, but Zhu Ning's marriage is still unsettled. The princess is so furious that even the prince is taking his anger out on her."

"Why is she taking her anger out on her father?" Zhu Yu asked.

"She blamed the prince for not living up to his expectations. This King Shuo was cowardly, neither respected nor feared.

Prince Lan is a royal relative, and his eldest daughter is a princess. Prince Jie is very capable and is feared by the emperor. His eldest daughter is also a princess, and not only that, she was married to Prince Yi, who is known to the whole world as having only power.

It’s just like ours. Zhu Ning is clearly a legitimate daughter, but she was only given the title of County Lady, a lower rank than others. Now she can’t even find a suitable husband.”

Miao wanted to hide her emotions, but she was facing her own daughter. She had suffered a lot from Pang Yuzhen on a daily basis. She couldn't hold back her smile and finally said something gloating: "Now that I see King Xiaoyao is so handsome, so noble, and so noble, I must be regretting it.

It will only make your father suffer, and he will inevitably be blamed by her again."
