After my mother read my mind, my whole family rebelled

The person who came in was the jailer from before.

At this moment, as soon as he walked into the house, he bowed respectfully to Shen Yuyao and said, "Princess, someone has come from the palace."

"The maids in the palace need to help Princess Ning change her clothes." He turned and said to Xia Yu, "Sir... please move."

Xia Yu nodded slightly, and pretended to bow to Shen Yuyao and said, "Princess, I'm leaving."

After saying this, he quickly followed the jailer out of the secret room.

He didn't want to run into anyone from the palace!

Shen Yuyao originally knew that she would not be able to stay in this imperial prison for long, but she did not expect that the emperor would release her so soon.

Could it be that something else happened in the palace?

The people who came to pick up Shen Yuyao into the palace under the imperial order were four maids, eight palace maids and a eunuch from the Imperial Household Department.

File in.

The group of people filled the secret room of the imperial prison.

"Your servant kowtows to Her Majesty Princess Ning. Long live Her Majesty."

The eunuchs and palace maids all knelt down and bowed to Shen Yuyao.

"Get up."

Shen Yuyao said lightly.

"Change your clothes."

Shen Yuyao looked up and saw that the palace maids and eunuchs had brought a nine-翟 crown decorated with pearl peony flowers on the front and back, a red gown made of fragrant cloud gauze, a shawl with golden cloud and phoenix patterns, a gold pendant and a jade sceptre.

These are dresses suitable for Shen Yuyao's status as a princess, but they are not the ones she wore on her enthronement day.

Shen Yuyao thought to herself that it seemed that Xu Yunxuan, Zi Su, Bai Zhi and the others had safely left Luyuan. She just didn't know whether Prince Ning could meet them. She had just met Prince Ning in a hurry and forgot to tell him that Xu Yunxuan and the others were still in Huang'en Temple.

The brand new dress in front of her should have been sent by the palace specially according to her position.

Who does the emperor want her to meet?

Shen Yuyao became even more confused.

There were many palace maids and eunuchs who came to pick up Shen Yuyao, so in less than an incense stick of time, Shen Yuyao had washed and dressed in a complete set of princess dress.

After she was dressed, a nanny brought a brazier and asked Shen Yuyao to step over it. She then took out peach and grapefruit branches and waved them around Shen Yuyao a few times.

Then they all knelt down and said, "Princess Ning, please return to the palace!"

Shen Yuyao held the jade sceptre in both hands and stepped out of the imperial prison gate.

Shen Yuyao squinted her eyes in the sunlight, feeling as if she were dreaming.

Shen Yuyao originally thought that she would be taken to Fengxian Hall, but when the sedan stopped and Shen Yuyao lifted the curtain, she found that she was in Kunning Palace.

It turned out that it was the Queen Mother who rescued her from the imperial prison. A faint smile appeared on Shen Yuyao's face.

"Your son pays respect to the Queen Mother. May the Queen Mother be blessed with good health and happiness!"

Shen Yuyao knelt down and performed a profound kowtow.

"Fourth daughter-in-law, please get up. You don't have to be so polite."

The queen's eyes were full of tenderness and pity: "My daughter-in-law, you have suffered."

"Princess Xiaoxian is sleeping soundly now. When she wakes up later, the palace maid will bring her to you."

The Queen Mother understands people's hearts too well. She knows that Xia Xiaoxian is the one Shen Yuyao really cares about at this moment.

Shen Yuyao's eyes suddenly turned red. She looked at her little fairy baby, as if she hadn't seen her little fairy baby for a long time.

The little fairy treasure is Shen Yuyao's weak spot.

"Mother..." Shen Yuyao choked up, "Mother, why did you ask me to wear formal clothes? Please tell me, I will obey."

Shen Yuyao knew that the Queen must have something important in mind when she asked her to wear the princess' dress, so she asked directly.

"Fourth daughter-in-law, please get up quickly." The queen waved to Shen Yuyao, "Come, come to me, let me take a good look at you first."

Shen Yuyao slowly stood up, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and walked towards the queen with a slight smile on her face.

The queen took Shen Yuyao's hands and looked at her carefully before she said softly, "Look, you've lost a lot of weight in just a few days since leaving the palace, my daughter-in-law."

"Mother, you look thinner..." Shen Yuyao felt a little worried. The Queen did not look very energetic at the moment, and there seemed to be deep worry between her brows.

"I have been feeling pretty good lately, but..." The Queen frowned slightly. "There is something troubling that I need you, my daughter-in-law, to handle."

"Just say whatever you want, mother. I will do my best."

Shen Yuyao turned slightly and looked at the queen with eyes as clear as water.

"All of you go down." The Queen Mother waved her hand and dismissed all the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace.

"Yes, the slaves retire."

After the eunuchs and palace maids left, the queen slowly stood up and looked at Shen Yuyao with worried eyes.

"I heard that you solved the assassination case of the princess of the previous dynasty the other day, and arrested all the criminals. How many times have you met the main criminal?"

The queen looked normal, but her tone was a little more anxious than usual.

"Reporting to the Queen Mother, this is true."

Shen Yuyao was a little confused. Could there be another hidden story in this case?

The Queen saw Shen Yuyao's confusion and continued, "Now the Emperor must marry the princess of the previous dynasty, ah...?"

"Anaj."

"Yes, that's right. It's the princess of the previous dynasty named Anaj."

The queen's eyes were full of worry. "Although there are precedents of taking women from previous dynasties into the harem of this dynasty, they are all concubines of the previous dynasty and have no blood feud with the emperor..."

Shen Yuyao had also heard that the current emperor's Concubine Han was originally a woman who was tributed to the previous dynasty by Goryeo, and Concubine Weng and Concubine Xi were concubines of the previous emperor. However, these three concubines were indeed not like Anaj, who had a paternal grudge against the emperor.

Moreover, since the emperor ascended the throne, these concubines have all fulfilled their duties and have given birth to many children for the royal family.

Seeing Shen Yuyao nod slightly, the Queen continued: "I am worried that Princess Anaj will pretend to be favored and wait for an opportunity to murder the Emperor..."

"The emperor was very angry about this matter these past two days and placed Princess Anajji in Yongfu Palace."

The queen raised her hand and rubbed her brow, "The emperor said that if Anajji refuses to surrender within three days, she will be killed."

"It's really killing Anaj..."

Shen Yuyao knew in her heart that the emperor could not kill Anaj!

There are now 100,000 women and children of foreign races from the previous dynasty in the capital of Daxia. If their princess is openly killed at this time, it is bound to arouse public indignation, which will cause great suffering to the people and bring misfortune to the country.

Shen Yuyao also knew what the queen was thinking at this time.

The Queen did not want to see the people of the capital suffer from war again, and she was even more unwilling to put such a huge hidden danger next to her husband's bed.

"Mother, do you want me to persuade that princess to surrender?"

Shen Yuyao asked softly: "But even if you persuade them to surrender, they may not be sincere."

"No, I heard that you know a lot about Princess Anaj, and I want to discuss with you what to do about this matter."

The queen paused for a moment and said, "Perhaps we can come up with a way to have the best of both worlds."
