Surprise!!! The Regent Princess is actually a hidden boss

Then he said to Mo Yinan, "Your aunt had a good relationship with the Queen Mother before. The reason why the eldest princess was confined by the emperor is somewhat due to you, so she will definitely not treat you well. She can't say anything about you, but she will definitely make things difficult for Qianqian."

"Qianqian may not be able to resist because she is the elder. But you don't have to be polite. You must protect her for me. Don't let Qianqian be wronged for the first time in front of so many people of this race. Those people will naturally not look down on Qianqian when they see your attitude."

Mo Yinan glanced at Chu Qianyu, thinking to himself, how could she let him be wronged? I'm afraid she doesn't need me to protect her at all.

But because of what my mother said, I nodded and responded.

When they arrived at the front hall, they saw a huge crowd of people inside.

Mo Yinan's father was the second child in the family. His grandmother had died of a disease she had contracted after giving birth to a child a few years earlier. His grandfather, like Mo Yinan's father, had been away fighting for many years and had passed away a few years before his father's death.

There is an older brother who is a concubine's son to Concubine Xu. Concubine Xu is now old and has a weak leg, so she rarely goes out on weekdays.

My younger brother, the Queen Mother, and Mo Yinan's father all came from the same mother. The Queen Mother was the oldest among them.

The youngest sister was born to Concubine Jin. Concubine Jin now lives in a courtyard outside the city. She is still in good health, so she came this time too.

When the people in the hall saw them come in, they came forward and saluted.

Mo Yinan said, "We are all family, no need to be polite. You all should get up. It's almost time now. Let's go straight away."

A group of people agreed, and this time they didn't cause any trouble.

After leaving the Regent's Palace, carriages were waiting outside. Because there were so many people today, the carriages parked outside almost filled up the street of the palace.

Mo Yinan and Chu Qianyu were in the front in a carriage, followed by the old princess and Mo Qingzi. Then came the third uncle's family, and then the eldest uncle. The younger aunt and the stepmother,

My sister-in-law is now married to General Xuanwei. Since she is already married, she doesn't need to come back on the ancestor worship day in previous years. But because of the special circumstances this year, Mo Yinan got married to the princess, and the empress dowager's seventh day and the eldest princess had an accident, so she thought of coming here.

It is said that Chu Qianyu is also in charge of the ancestor worship this year. She wants to see whether the princess is capable of doing the job now.

After their carriage drove out of the city, the people who were watching in the dark hurried to Prince Yu's mansion to report.

Prince Yu was humiliated by Mo Yinan that day, but he has been holding a grudge against him ever since.

Someone was sent to inquire and found out that they had returned to General Chu's mansion that day. Then the emperor sent General Chu out to fight in the war, and Concubine De ordered someone to take over the shop in the Chu mansion.

When he heard this, he always felt that something was not right, and felt that this matter must be related to Mo Yinan.

Knowing that they were going to worship their ancestors today, he made careful plans, and a big surprise was waiting for them.

Thinking of this, Prince Yu revealed a sinister smile.

It was already noon when Mo Yinan and others arrived at the ancestral tomb.

After everyone got off the carriage, they had to walk for about half an hour to reach the place of sacrifice.

Someone had already cleaned the place thoroughly a few days ago, so the road to the sacrifice looked particularly clean.

If nothing unexpected happens, the master we invited should have arrived by now. They live in a nearby mountain, so it is convenient for them to come here.

But when Mo Yinan and others arrived at the altar for sacrifice, they saw Manager Ming asking the servants something anxiously.

Seeing them arrive, she became even more anxious. She hurried forward and said somewhat embarrassedly, "Madam, something happened to the prince and princess. The abbot we invited earlier was supposed to leave at noon this morning, but for some reason he suddenly became ill and can't get up now. So I'm afraid the ceremony can't be held as scheduled."

"Something happened to the abbot suddenly? How could it be such a coincidence?" The old princess frowned slightly, wondering if someone was secretly trying to trip him up.

"Madam, I came here last night to keep an eye on him. I even went to pick up the abbot in person this morning. So it is true that he suddenly got sick. I also think this is a bit too coincidental. What do you think we should do now?"

The old lady was silent for a long time. It was definitely too late to ask for help now, as the ceremony would start in less than half an hour.

There is only one temple nearby. The round trip to any temple further away would take at least an hour.

This was the first time she had encountered such a situation. The old abbot was usually fine, and he had always presided over the ceremony in previous years.

Thinking of this, the old princess looked at Steward Ming and asked, "Then why didn't you look for other monks in Qingyun Temple?"

Manager Ming sighed and said, "Originally, in addition to the abbot, there were two other eminent monks in Qingyun Temple. I had intended to invite them, but the abbot said they were not in the temple now. The other monks had never presided over the ancestor worship ceremony, and they were afraid of messing it up. So it was not possible."

The more the old princess listened, the more uncomfortable she felt. What happened this year?

Before she could say anything, she heard an inappropriate voice: "Oh, this kind of thing has never happened in previous years. If I'm not mistaken, this year's ancestor worship is being organized by Nan'er's current princess. This is really strange. Could it be that the elders don't want this marriage? So they're secretly blocking it?"

The old princess turned around and saw that it was Mo Yinan's aunt, Jin Yi Niang's daughter, Mo Yuzhen, who was now in a yin and yang tone. She even whispered to her mother.

I was already a little angry because of the sudden accident, and now I was even more angry after hearing this. Then I said rudely: "What are you talking about! After all, you are Qianqian's elder, so you should think before you speak."

Mo Yuzhen's face turned red and white at the old princess' words.

She had been at odds with the old princess before she got married, and they both disliked each other.

She didn't expect that she would be embarrassed again today. How could she bear this?

Then he stepped forward and raised his voice, asking, "Why? Wasn't what I said right? Such a thing has never happened in previous ancestor worships. In my opinion, the elders in the family don't like this new daughter-in-law. They got married just a few days after my eldest sister left. At that time, I said that the date should be postponed for a while."

The old princess sneered and said, "Since ancient times, there has been a saying among the people that one can get married during the mourning period. And you saw how simple Nan'er's wedding was. You actually brought this up today. And put this big hat on my daughter-in-law. You are really making a fuss!"

Mo Yuzhen wanted to say something else, but she heard Mo Yinan slowly say, "Auntie, stop it. This was an accident and has nothing to do with Qianqian. The most important thing now is to find a way to deal with it quickly."

After saying that, she looked at Mo Yuzhen with sharp eyes, as if if she said another word, she might not be able to bear the consequences.

She had always been a little afraid of this nephew, but when she saw how he was protecting Chu Qianyu, she gave up. She took a few steps back. After all, there was still a long time to come, so there was no need to rush.
