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

Chapter 53: The Regent King Kills His Wife

When Chu Qianyu heard this, her pace slowed down even more.

"Of course they didn't agree, they just said the marriage was postponed. The Queen Mother is the aunt of the Regent after all, how could she tolerate such rumors?"

"Tsk~" After hearing this, everyone sighed and thought it was extremely boring. They all dispersed.

"This is too much of a coincidence." Chu Qianyu thought to herself after hearing this. The fact that he was unlucky with his wife was a little strange. Could it be that Mo Yinan didn't want to marry? That was possible. Then maybe he did all this.

As Chu Qianyu was thinking, she had already reached Yuexin Hall and released the horse. Then she returned to the general's mansion.

Just after she changed her clothes, someone from the old lady's house came over and said that the old lady wanted to see her about something.

After hearing this, Chu Qianyu followed Nanny Liu and walked towards the old lady's courtyard.

Before she even entered the room, she could already hear the voices of Chu Xiaozhu and the old lady talking. Chu Qianyu had already roughly guessed that the reason she was asked to come today was probably to ask Chu Xiaozhu about the matter of the foster nanny.

As expected, just as she stepped over the threshold and entered the house, before she could even stand still, she heard the old lady turn her head and look at her and ask, "Qianyu, have you sent any invitations to the palace these days? I wanted to ask you a few days ago, but I thought it would be bad to push you too hard, or it would make you uncomfortable. But there has been no movement these days, what's going on?"

Chu Qianyu walked in slowly and bowed to the old lady before saying, "Grandma, don't worry. I have already sent a letter to my aunt. But you also know that the process of entering the palace is very complicated, so you have to wait."

Chu Xiaozhu rolled her eyes after hearing this. Chu Qianyu obviously didn't care and was just trying to fool her grandmother. Even if it was slow, there should be news in two days. But how long has it been now?

So he looked at her with dissatisfaction and said, "If you don't want to ask Grandmother to teach me, you can just say it directly. Why do you have to beat around the bush like this?"

Then he looked at the old lady and said, "Grandma, you are a second-rank imperial official. It would be more convenient for you to enter the palace. Why don't you..."

After hearing this, the old lady did not respond directly, but looked at Chu Qianyu with a stern expression and said, "Qianyu, are you unwilling to let your second sister enter the palace, so you are delaying here?"

"Please forgive me, grandma. I don't want my second sister to enter the palace. What I just said is true. It does take some time." Chu Qianyu stood there, lowered her head and spoke indifferently. The old lady could not find any fault with him.

Chu Xiaozhu was so angry that her chest heaved up and down, and she snorted inwardly, "After the Spring Banquet tomorrow, I'll see if you will still be so arrogant!"

Then she looked at the old lady and said coquettishly, "Grandma, the time for the selection is getting closer and closer. If it is delayed for a while, I am afraid it will be too late. Please think of a solution quickly."

The old lady knew it very well. She knew that it would be useless for her to go to the palace to find Concubine De. She was thinking about whether to urge her or let Chu Qianyu go with her.

Then Chu Qianyu said slowly: "Grandma, if I remember correctly, the old nanny who served the Queen Mother seems to have retired now that she is old. You seemed to have a very good relationship with her before. Why don't you go find her? Maybe it will be faster."

When the old lady heard this, she slapped her forehead and suddenly realized, "Oh, I am really old. I actually forgot about this."

Then she looked at Chu Xiaozhu and smiled happily: "Grandma, give her a letter today. She will definitely come as soon as possible for Grandma's sake. Don't worry. Besides, she has served the Queen Mother after all, so it will be no problem for her to come and teach you."

Chu Xiaozhu was extremely happy after hearing this. She smiled like a flower and held the old lady's arm a little tighter, saying, "Grandma, you are the best. When your grandson enters the palace in the future, I will work hard to earn you a first-rank imperial decree."

"You!" The old lady smiled and scratched her nose lovingly, "How can this rank be so simple?"

"Then why did grandma get a first-class imperial decree so easily like grandpa? I think you can do it too." Chu Xiaozhu glanced at Chu Qianyu, then turned to the old lady and said. Her face was full of innocence, as if she said it unintentionally.

"Humph! It's just that he is lucky."

After hearing this, Chu Xiaozhu looked at Chu Qianyu standing beside her with a smug look and said, "Big sister, you are right. It has been a long time since I last saw my grandmother. I wonder when big sister will return to the Grand Tutor's Mansion so that I can take me with me and show my filial piety."

After hearing this, the old lady also took over the conversation and said, "Qianyu, it's okay. Take Xiaozhu and your fourth sister Xiaorou back to your grandparents' home. It will also help to get closer to them. After all, if your second sister enters the palace in the future, she may be able to help Concubine De."

After hearing this, Chu Qianyu nodded obediently.

She really didn't want to stand here and waste time watching the two of them acting, so she said, "Grandma, if there's nothing else, I'll go give mother acupuncture." But she was thinking that she didn't care about Chu Xiaozhu entering the palace. As long as Wang Man's children were away, her mother would be out of sight and out of mind, and maybe she would feel better.

But today, the duet between the grandfather and grandson successfully made her feel uncomfortable. In this case, she should not enter the palace.

When the old lady heard Chu Qianyu mention her mother, she suddenly remembered that there was such a person in the mansion, so she asked very rarely, "How is your mother now? Has her condition improved?"

"After these days of recuperation and acupuncture, the toxins that my mother was previously infected with have been almost cleared." Chu Qianyu said.

After these words were spoken, the faces of the grandfather and grandson sitting on the couch changed.

The old lady looked unhappy and said, "Don't mention your mother's poisoning anymore. After all, it's a family scandal. If outsiders knew about it, how would they think of our general's mansion and talk about your father behind his back?"

Chu Xiaozhu looked at Chu Qianyu with a hint of resentment in her eyes at this moment. Now that she had finally made her grandmother forget about the incident with her mother, why was she bringing it up now!

But she couldn't say anything at this time. She just hoped that the old lady would quickly let Chu Qianyu go back.

When Chu Qianyu heard the old lady say this, she seemed not to realize how serious the matter was, and continued to talk to herself: "Grandson thought you were concerned about your mother, so I told you the truth."

"Okay, okay, go back and see your mother. Don't be an eyesore here." The old lady waved her hand impatiently and told Chu Qianyu to go back quickly.

"Yes." Chu Qianyu bowed slightly, turned around and left the old lady's room.

Chu Xiaozhu watched the people walk out, and was afraid that the old lady would take her anger out on her, so she quickly changed the subject and said, "Grandmother, there will be a Spring Festival Banquet tomorrow, do you want to find a man for my eldest sister? If my eldest sister is married, then I can enter the palace next month to participate in the selection."

The old lady hadn't recovered from the situation just now. When she heard this, she said what she was thinking directly: "Well, the most important thing tomorrow is to find someone for your elder sister. Now I have a few candidates in mind. But we have to wait and see. After all, this is related to the future prosperity and decline of our general's mansion."
