Long Live the Empress

Even so, the servant still did not bring any news about Yue Jinghong to Yue Jinghao.

Yue Jinghao was a little at a loss, so Meng advised her to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion and make plans. If she could never find Yue Jinghong, would Yue Jinghao never go back?

Manou and Nanny Hong supported Yue Jinghao on both sides. As soon as they walked out of the room, Yue Jinghao could no longer hold on and fainted.

This scared everyone. If the second young lady wasn't found, something might happen to the eldest young lady again.

It was Meng who had experience. She fed Yue Jinghao porridge and wiped her face with cold water. It took half an hour before Yue Jinghao woke up.

"Miss, are you worrying me to death like this? If anything happens to you, the second young lady won't be at ease even when she comes back!" Manju lay on Yue Jinghao's legs and started to cry.

Mrs. Meng also sighed. Although the little maid had violated the rules, her words were not wrong. "Young lady, please take care of yourself. It is said that your body and hair are given by your parents. How can your mother in heaven rest in peace after your actions?"

Yue Jinghao nodded with red eyes, forced herself to drink some porridge, and then told her servants to return to Beijing.

Meng sent Yue Jinghao to the carriage, and when she saw Manjushri, who was hesitant to speak, she immediately understood something and said, "You should go back first!"

Agate nodded, bowed to Meng, and got on the carriage.

Prime Minister's Mansion

Yue Jinghao was not the only one who couldn't sleep all night. After waking up, the old lady waited for news in the government hall with Yue Hanwen and others.

"Madam, the eldest daughter is back!" Just as the servant had finished reporting, Aunt Su's hateful voice rang out, "The second daughter hasn't come back yet, what is she doing back?"

The old lady frowned and was about to scold Aunt Su when she saw Yue Jinghao being helped into the house by two people.

Yue Jinghao knelt heavily on the ground with a thud, "Grandma, my granddaughter is incompetent and has not found my second sister!"

Aunt Su looked at Yue Jinghao who was intact and wanted to strangle her to death with her own hands. "Your second sister is missing, why are you still fine?"

Yue Jinghao didn't expect Aunt Su to have such an idea, and stared at Aunt Su with shocked eyes. "What's the logic behind what you said? My second sister is missing, so I have to disappear too, right?"

Aunt Su snorted coldly, "As a sister, you didn't take good care of your sister. As a legitimate daughter, you didn't discipline your concubine sister. Miss, don't you think that all this has nothing to do with you?"

Manju was so angry that she said, "Aunt Su, the eldest lady has been worried about the second lady and has been awake all day and all night..."

Aunt Su slammed the table and said, "Who do you think you are? How dare you give orders here? The eldest lady is working day and night, that's what she should do! No one can have an easy life until the second lady comes back!"

"Master, look at Sister Su, she's so scary! The old lady and the master haven't said a word yet, but Sister Su is already blaming the eldest lady... Besides, from what Sister Su said, if the second lady can't be found, everyone in the mansion will take the blame for her! It doesn't matter to me, I'm just a concubine with a lowly life, but how can the old lady and the master bear it?" Su Hongfu sobbed and wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, looking very pitiful.

How could Yue Hanwen bear to let Su Hongfu die? He glared at Aunt Su, "She's gone, why should the people in the mansion be buried with her? If you think it's feasible, go ahead and die first! Humph!"

Aunt Su didn't expect Yue Hanwen to be so cold-blooded. Her lips trembled and she couldn't utter a word.

"Madam, the wife of Jingzhao Yin is here to visit!"

The old lady was surprised. She thought that the Prime Minister's Mansion had no time to entertain guests, so she wanted to send them away.

"Madam, the wife of Jingzhao Yin said that this matter concerns the second young lady. Please see her." The servant reported again.

When the old lady heard that it was related to Yue Jinghong, she immediately sent someone to invite Meng in.

After Meng bowed and greeted everyone, she sat down and saw Yue Jinghao kneeling on the ground. Yue Jinghao was already weak, and after kneeling for so long, she looked a little shaky.

"What do you mean, old lady?" Meng looked at Yue Jinghao, but asked the old lady.

Aunt Su couldn't stand Meng's meddling in the Prime Minister's Mansion, "The eldest lady didn't take good care of the second lady, so she's asking for punishment!"

Meng had always looked down on concubines, and now that the old lady was still in the mansion, it was a concubine who was holding the legitimate daughter accountable. It was simply too ridiculous! "Oh! This is the head lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, right? Forgive my poor eyesight, and please forgive me, Madam Prime Minister!"

There was an awkward moment in the mansion hall, but Su Hongfu graciously bowed to Meng and said, "Madam, you misunderstood. This is the mansion's concubine Su~"

Meng was embarrassed and coughed lightly, "I didn't expect that this huge Prime Minister's Mansion is run by Aunt Su. I didn't ask clearly before I came here. It's really rude..."

The old lady and Yue Hanwen blushed and glared at Aunt Su fiercely. The old lady smiled and said, "Madam, you misunderstood. Su was just being rude because she was worried about the second young lady. Please don't be offended!" After that, she shouted to Manju: "Hurry up and help the eldest young lady sit down!"

Manou quickly helped Yue Jinghao up and sat her on a chair, then wiped the sweat off Yue Jinghao's forehead with a handkerchief.
