After traveling through time, I became the aunt of the loyal dog emperor

"Su He?"

"Mengzhu!"

The two people who passed by each other turned their heads to look at each other at the same time, their eyes full of disbelief and joy after confirmation. Su He immediately turned around, but after closing the distance between the two, he didn't know how to express his thoughts, so he just smiled awkwardly.

Mu Xun walked forward aggressively, holding the reins of Meng Zhu's horse with one hand, and stood between the two of them, separating them by a galaxy. He felt like a wild boar staring at his cabbage, full of defensiveness and hostility, and asked unfriendlyly, "Who are you?"

Su He sat on the horse and bowed respectfully, then began to introduce himself. He just said, "My name is Su..." when he was interrupted impatiently by Mu Xun.

"Su, you can't do anything. Please take care of your horse. The road is so wide, but you have to hit my sister. If my sister gets hurt, I won't forgive you." Not satisfied with that, Mu Xun pointed at the silver-haired white horse that Meng Zhu rode and added, "And your wild horse."

Su He glanced at Meng Zhu awkwardly and immediately apologized: "I'm really sorry, I didn't tame the stars well."

Mu Xun looked at Su He unfriendly, and wanted to use this as an excuse to teach this ignorant young man who was thinking about his sister a lesson. Just as he was about to speak, Meng Zhu's eyes suddenly brightened. She gently stroked Xingxing's mane and said happily: "Xingxing, it's my star! I thought I would never see it again, and I would never be able to ride it again, but I didn't expect to see it again. Thank you, Su He!"

Mu Xun's frustrated look made Wan Ning and Wan Tao, who were watching the show, laugh out loud. He was angry and annoyed, but he still gently confirmed with Meng Zhu: "Meng Zhu, is this your horse?"

Meng Zhu nodded and turned to thank Su He: "I haven't seen it for more than half a year. You have taken good care of it."

Su He touched his neck shyly and explained, "It was the servant Lao Liu who took good care of it. I just came back, but Xingxing never let anyone else ride it. It seems that it still remembers your scent. Lao Liu said that you have never seen Xingxing?"

Mengzhu patted Xingxing's head gently, nodded, and said, "I'm worried that it will remember me and won't be able to live well in the new place."

Su He also reached out his hand and gently stroked Xingxing's silver-white mane. He smiled shyly, and his skin, which was tanned from marching and fighting, looked even more honest. He murmured and repeated, "Xingxing has remembered that you are its owner, and it will not accept anyone else. I will help you take care of it, and let Xingxing send you home in two years."

"Cough cough!" Mu Xun, who was standing between the two of them, couldn't bear it any more. He deliberately coughed loudly to attract their attention.

Meng Zhu reacted and introduced Su He: "This is my brother Mu Xun, and this is Su He."

Su He immediately greeted him attentively: "Hello, brother."

Mu Xun instantly turned into a grumpy curly-haired puppy, rolling his eyes in his heart and complaining in a low voice: "Is he your brother? You just bark. And you even greet people while sitting on the horse. How rude."

Su He heard everything and his face instantly turned red like boiling water. Without hesitation, he immediately dismounted and saluted respectfully. All of this was seen by the bystanders, Wan Ning and Wan Tao. They had a hard time holding back their laughter and could not bear to let the few people continue to be deadlocked here, so they took the initiative to break the deadlock.

"Sixth Young Master Su, I heard that you and General Su joined the army. Why are you here today?" Wan Ning said as they walked.

Su He then realized that there were other people around, and seemed startled. He quickly recognized Wan Ning's identity and bowed respectfully, saying, "Su He greets Princess Le Yan. Princess, the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, and I came back this time to visit my grandparents and mother."

Wan Ning helped him up, and saw that he was much tougher after the military training than the last time they met. She pinched the muscles on his arm unintentionally, and could see the hardship of his military life. Wan Ning said, "There is no one else here, Mr. Su Liu, you don't have to be polite. Can you stay a few more days after you come back? The palace is holding a beauty pageant, and all the princes and nobles of the right age are in the palace. Do you want to join us?"

As a major event in Chu Country during this period, the talent show was basically known to everyone. Su He had obviously heard about it, and he also knew that this year's talent show was different and that Meng Zhu was among them. He subconsciously lowered his head and looked at Meng Zhu, who happened to be looking at him at the same time. The moment their eyes met, they each fled in panic.

"Gee!" Mengzhu let go of the reins, and Xingxing responded by jumping and running along the river bank.

At this time, Su He turned over and jumped onto his horse, holding the reins and ran towards Meng Zhu. The two figures tumbled in the sunlight, getting farther and farther away.

Wan Ning turned around and saw Mu Xun's frustrated and disappointed expression, as if he had just found his sister, but was about to lose her again. He was gritting his teeth and was "full of hostility" towards Su He.

"Prince Muxun, you are going to have a brother-in-law!"

Wan Ning ran away after flirting with her, waved her hand and left in a cool manner, saying: "I have other things to do. You will be responsible for sending them back to the carriage later. Wan Tao will take Meng Zhu back to the palace. Please, Prince Mu Xun!"

Without waiting for Mu Xun's consent, Wan Ning had already run away, leaving Wan Tao here to watch. As for her, the time agreed to send the concubines of Wuming Palace away was getting closer and closer, and Zhuli, the shopkeeper of Cuican Tower, was late to return, so she didn't have more time to be picky.

Fortunately, this time the plan is not fast, what is more important is the coordination of each link, it can't be too early or too late. So Douzi's mother-in-law may not be unable to do it, so she will go to find Douzi's mother-in-law to discuss the specific matters to be done before leaving the palace today.

As for the date of action, April 21st was chosen, and from that day on, the palace began to prepare for the Dragon Boat Festival. All the relevant personnel were so busy that they had no energy to take care of so many things. If a few unpopular concubines in the cold palace died, at most they would be wrapped in mats and thrown into a mass grave. Who would investigate and care?

At that time, the mother-in-law will go to the mass grave to find the concubines who faked their death, give them the antidote, and take the opportunity to send them out of the city. The rest of the matters will be arranged after they successfully leave the city.

The market was bustling with people at noon, and local vendors were also warming up for the Dragon Boat Festival. The streets seemed to smell the faint aroma of mugwort. Wan Ning put on a bamboo hat and walked among the bustling crowd, thinking about the arrangements for the day.

"Hey, have you heard about it?" Street vendors who have no business gather together to chat and talk about anything.

"Heard what?", asked another vendor.

"Well, what else could it be? Haven't you heard about the princess's story? The eldest princess and the emperor have been dating secretly and have already gotten pregnant."

"How is that possible?" one of the vendors said in disbelief, retorting: "How did you know that?"

Wan Ning became interested. She had only heard the Queen Mother talk about rumors outside the palace, but now that she had encountered them, she really wanted to hear them with her own ears. So far, she was somewhat relieved that at least someone was speaking for her.

Then the vendor added, "It's all old news. I heard the latest news is that the eldest princess has given birth to the emperor's children, twins, a boy and a girl. The children are now being raised by the queen mother, and the princess is imprisoned."

Wan Ning almost spit out a mouthful of water. This rumor was getting more and more exaggerated. How could anyone believe it? If it continued to spread, she would have to give birth to eight children.

At this time, a boss asked the question that Wan Ning wanted to ask: "How do you know? Did you see it with your own eyes?"

"Wow, do I need to see it with my own eyes? Look at how long Princess Le Yan hasn't come out. She must have gone to give birth!"
