Your Majesty, the princess ran away again!

Mu Nanyan's eyes lit up, "Or is this all father's plan for me? Yan'er has caused father a lot of trouble."

Mu Xi was stunned when he heard this, "When did I ever plan anything for you?"

"Although father didn't say it clearly, how can a daughter pretend to be ignorant? Prince Li is dead. Please let me go to the palace to check it out. As a concubine's daughter, I am definitely not worthy of the East Li God of War. Even if it is a marriage arranged by birth, the emperor will definitely not agree. So the emperor has no choice but to let my second sister marry Prince Li instead. Even if you anger the emperor, you don't want your daughter to die. I know that father has always had me and mother in his heart, so his previous indifference to me was well-intentioned. Yan'er is very moved by father's kindness."

She pretended to wipe away the non-existent tears and raised the corners of her lips.

Mu Xiwen was so angry that he almost died. "Don't try to quibble. Have I ever had the daughter of Su Shi, the guilty minister, in my heart?"

Mu Nanyan showed sympathy, "Father said this because he must have taken grandmother and the second wife into consideration. But everyone in Kyoto knows that grandmother is tolerant and kind-hearted, and the second wife is virtuous and tolerant. Moreover, when mother passed away, she was not labeled as the daughter of a traitor. Father does not have to be afraid."

These words made it seem like Mu Xiwen was henpecked and a mama's boy, which immediately made him look cold, and even looked at Shen and the old lady with some dissatisfaction in his eyes.

The old lady sat in the main seat and glanced at him calmly without saying anything. However, Shen couldn't sit still any longer. "The master is the head of the family. We shouldn't disturb the affairs of the backyard too much. Only mother and I can take care of it. We are afraid of affecting the master's mood. It's all mother's good intentions."

Shen's two sentences put all the credit on the old lady, and she didn't take any of it. The old lady felt relieved immediately. As expected, this daughter-in-law is still pleasing to the eye. Unlike Su, who is arrogant everywhere with the name of the Su family, she still has to coax her. Fortunately, the Su family has fallen, and the Right Prime Minister's Mansion no longer needs the Su family's help, so she can finally live a more comfortable life.

Only the existence of her granddaughter can remind her of the unhappiness she felt when she first entered Kyoto. Her son was the top scholar of the dynasty, and his appearance was also first-class. Why should he be trampled under the feet of a woman? And those dignitaries, who can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth, actually said that my son had such a good future because of the Su family. The more the old lady thought about it, the more dissatisfied she became.

There was some scrutiny in her eyes when she looked at Mu Nanyan, but... this granddaughter was exactly like Su, and was not like Xi Wen in any way. She knew that Su was a dishonest bitch, but she didn't expect that she was so bold as to cheat on her son. She would definitely allow such a stain to exist in the Mu family.

The old lady put away her thoughts and pointed at the two concubines, "Luo, Li, you two have not changed the clothes for the future princess. Lan Yuan, go get the wedding dress for the future princess. Hurry up, someone from the palace will be here soon."

The two concubines bowed together, "Princess, let me change your clothes!"

Oh, you old lady are looking for trouble.

Mu Nanyan saw a sneaky person at the gate of the courtyard with sharp eyes, and said to the two concubines: "Go, two concubines, the person is at the gate."

Both concubines were confused. Who was at the door?

Mu Nanyan shouted outside the door: "Second sister, come in quickly. Someone is coming from the palace. Let the two concubines change your clothes quickly."

Murong Yue was confused. Someone from the palace came. What does it have to do with me? Didn't my father say that Mu Nanyan was getting married today? What's the point of picking me up?

Shen's heart tightened and she stared outside the door. Seeing her daughter appear with a veil on her face, her nails dug into her flesh. What a damn girl, Mu Nanyan.

Murong Yue knew she couldn't hide, so she might as well go in directly. She bowed down and saluted dignifiedly. The old lady was happy to see this granddaughter. This was the legitimate daughter of the Mu family, the future mother of a country. She was happy just thinking about it, and her voice became softer. She said, "Yuer, get up quickly, why are you still wearing a veil?"

Mu Rongyue looked embarrassed and cursed Mu Nanyan in her heart, asking her why she didn't die and came back earlier. It was all her fault that she had ruined her reputation. Of course, such words could never be said aloud to a talented woman from Kyoto.

Murong Yue walked to the old lady's side and stood down, lowering her shoulders, and said a little aggrievedly: "Grandma, I don't know what happened to Yue'er. There are many rashes on her face."

What's going on? Her granddaughter, who looks so beautiful, has a rash on her face. Is this rash contagious? The old lady dodged Murong Yue's hand and turned her anger to Shen, "Shen, what's wrong with you? You can't even take care of the child!"

Shen was panicked and quickly admitted her fault: "Mother, it's all my fault."

Murong Yue quickly leaned over to the old lady and said, "It's not mother's fault. Even the doctor doesn't know why. Mother even asked Mo Daxian's apprentice to take a look. He said... said there is something dirty." After saying that, she quickly gave Shen a look.

Shen knew that her daughter was smart, so she followed up, "The disciple of Mo Daxian said that Yue'er's face was hit by evil spirits. As long as the evil spirits are removed, it will be fine. Although it is not contagious, it tortures people. It really makes my Yue'er suffer."

Hearing that it was not contagious, the old lady felt relieved and continued to enjoy Mu Rongyue's service. As long as she got rid of this dead girl, her daughter would recover.
