After being dressed as an old lady and having her mind read, the capital city went crazy

He Mingyu's eyes tightened, "She has been in charge of the palace for so many years, and the palace is getting poorer and poorer. Her own small treasury must be rich, and if she has no selfish motives, she won't be unable to continue."

If they hadn't done it on purpose, Shen Yunyue's reputation wouldn't be worse than that of the beggars outside the city.

Chunhe didn't dare to say much.

Busy blessing body said:

"My lady, I will go to the kitchen to take a look. Would you like to stay and have lunch with the old princess?"

"Yeah. You go ahead."

He Mingyu responded.

She went to find Xia He and took out the fabric from her private warehouse.

She brought her maid and Xia He to make two sets of clothes for Shen Yunyue.

Fang Rou and Wen Jian brought He Siyuan and He Siting over.

He Siyuan is Wen Jian's child. In addition to He Siyuan, He Mingce has two illegitimate children, He Sihan, the second oldest in the mansion, and He Yiyi.

In addition to He Siting, He Mingan and Fang Rou also have a two-year-old daughter, He Xuanxuan, who is also the first legitimate daughter of the royal family. He Mingan has five illegitimate children, but not as many concubines as He Mingce.

Fang Rou signaled the child to speak softly, and smiled at Jiu Niang who was sitting in the corridor:

"Jiu Niang, where is mother?"

"The old princess is resting."

This made Wen Jian unhappy, and he felt that there was something wrong with Jiu Niang's attitude.

"Who's serving in there?"

"I was serving inside, and when I saw the old princess fell asleep, I sat down in the corridor." Jiu Niang answered neither humbly nor arrogantly.

This neither humble nor arrogant attitude stimulated Wen Jian.

She sneered:

"You are my personal servants after all. Is Chun He a dead person?"

Fang Rou was shocked. She didn't expect Wen Jian to be the same as before. She listened carefully with a wry smile and was relieved when she saw that Shen Yunyue was not woken up.

"Sister-in-law, why don't we go back first."

He Siting started playing in Guiyun Courtyard.

"Mom, I'm just playing at grandma's place and having lunch here at noon." He Siting was a little foodie. He sniffed and smelled a different fragrance.

Wen Jian looked Jiu Niang up and down, then looked away.

"Second brother and sister-in-law. Mother is easily influenced and has never managed the household. She indulges these people in the yard and treats them like deputy owners."

Can she not be angry?

The good housekeeper Quan was taken away without authorization, making her a laughing stock in the capital.

Even her mother's family was ridiculed.

Jiu Niang looked unhappy.

"The princess is definitely not talking about the servants in Guiyun Courtyard." Jiu Niang twitched the corners of her lips.

"Sister-in-law, let's go."

Fang Rou regretted coming here with Wen Jian. If Shen Yunyue heard this, she would probably be disappointed in her.

He Siyuan pursed his lips.

"mother."

Shen Yunyue's voice sounded from inside.

"What's going on outside?"

Wen Jian hurriedly walked to the corridor, "Mother, your daughter-in-law is here to serve you."

Shen Yunyue had woken up a long time ago.

The noise outside did not escape her ears. She knew Wen Jian was domineering. Unexpectedly, this woman did not need to cover up.

After all, those big families were fighting in private, and they all smiled brighter than anyone else.

"I have seen your filial piety, go back."

"I'm going to have a private conversation with Mingyu today."

What I mean is, don't be an eyesore here.

Fang Rou responded:

"Mother. I'll go back first."

Wen Jian was not giving up. In a few days, there would be a tea party for some noble ladies in the capital. She had finally squeezed into this circle through the Seventh Princess. How could she survive without her status as a mistress?

"Sister Mingyu hasn't been home for a long time, it's not easy to see her."

"Mother, we will stay for lunch as well."

Fang Rou looked at Wen Jian in surprise, wondering if her sister-in-law knew what she had said.

There were footsteps inside.

Shen Yunyue came to the door and looked at Wen Jian intently.

"Alright. You all can stay for lunch."

Wen Jian was very happy.

She had to perform well. Shen Yunyue alone could not manage the household. Fang Rou, a child of a criminal, was not qualified to manage the household.

Fang Rou had no choice but to stay.

She asked the maid beside her to help in the kitchen.

noon.

It's rare for Guiyun Court to be so lively.

Shen Yunyue simply ordered people to call all the children in the house over, regardless of whether they were legitimate or illegitimate.

This move puzzled Wen Jian.

Why should those illegitimate children who are not presentable be with them?

Not long after.

A dozen children stood in front of Shen Yunyue.

He Siyuan is the most dazzling, but this child is very thoughtful.

He Sihan is almost like an unknown person. Just looking at his small arms you can tell that he has put a lot of effort into practicing boxing and kicking.

He Siting was not very scheming. He glanced towards the kitchen several times with his round eyes.

At first glance, you can tell he's just a little foodie with no ideas.

The other bastards were young after all, and they were all sniffing childishly.

He Yiyi was only six years old, and she looked malnourished, like she was three or four years old. Her arms were so thin that they seemed like they would break if she put a little force on them.

Shen Yunyue was not unaware of the secrets of the backyard.

There is one table for children and one table for adults.

Shen Yunyue asked Chunhe, who was beside her, to take better care of He Yiyi.

The dinner table.

When four women are together, the rule of not talking while eating is no longer applicable.

While eating, He Mingyu talked to Shen Yunyue about gossip in the capital.

"Mother, I heard that Concubine Xian's brothers have returned to Beijing to report on their work."

"Noble Concubine Xian?"

Shen Yunyue didn't seem to know much about the imperial concubine in the palace.

"The fifth prince's biological mother."

Shen Yunyue's eyes lit up. Wasn't it the fifth prince who killed the crown prince?

"He fought with my father, but my father died later. General Liu made great achievements in the war and was named the Great General King by the emperor. He also took over the soldiers under my father's command."

When He Mingyu said this, he was shocked to realize what he had said.

Shen Yunyue was married to the Great Zhou because of that incident.

She was a little annoyed at herself for speaking too quickly.

Shen Yunyue didn't think anything of it. She was not the original body and had no feelings for Dashun's relatives.

Besides, there are so many daughters in my original family.

The one sent here for marriage must be the most transparent person in the palace.

Wen Jian put down his chopsticks and said, "Speaking of which, it reminds me of the people who asked the emperor to send troops to crush Dashun."

"Come to think of it, mother is also a meritorious person of Dashun."

Shen Yunyue understood what she meant.

He sneered:

"Now, I am still a loyal official of the Great Zhou. A unique female official, among all the women born in the Great Zhou, who has this ability?"

Wen Jian's face changed.

After calming down his emotions, he said awkwardly:

"Mother is so lucky."

"That's natural. You can't even accept such a blessing."

Shen Yunyue showed no mercy to Wen Jian. There was no need to show mercy to someone who was not nice to her original self.

The meal was a mixture of various feelings.

Fang Rou didn't dare to speak at all.

The wine on the children's table was much simpler.

After meal.

Shen Yunyue asked Wen Jian and Fang Rou to leave.

She carefully instructed He Mingyu, "Go back to the yard where you lived before you got married and rest. Go back in the evening."

"Yes, mother." He Mingyu was very clear-headed and knew a lot from Shen Yunyue.

She will definitely make changes when she returns.

Chunhe came in to report to Shen Yunyue.

"Old Princess, I found scars on the young lady's body."

Chun He didn't expect that the scars on He Yiyi's body were so shocking. Her biological mother was He Mingce's favorite concubine and had caused Wen Jian a lot of headaches in the past.

Ever since she witnessed her own mother slipping and falling into a pond near the palace and dying.

He Yiyi can't speak anymore.

Shen Yunyue sighed.

"Tell Wen Jian that Yiyi will stay with me and be raised." She would never allow Wen Jian to hurt the child.

As for the rest, as long as she does her job well, that's all.

Don't think about seizing power from me. Shen Yunyue will not interfere in the affairs of He Mingce's yard.

"Yes."

That afternoon, Chunhe took people to take He Yiyi's things to Guiyunyuan.

Poor little girl, she only has a few sets of clothes.

His food, clothing and other expenses seem to be no different from those of a beggar.

Wen Jian disagreed with sending He Yiyi over. Chun He said forcefully that since Wen Jian could not be magnanimous enough to accommodate a concubine's daughter, she could only be given to the old princess to raise.

After Chunhe took his people away.

Wen Jian broke several cups.

"Chun He actually dared to speak to me like this, has she forgotten the time when she begged me for help?"

Nanny Wen sighed in her heart: Chunhe is so strong because she hasn't forgotten.
