I'm shocked! After breaking off the engagement, the emperor's uncle wants to have a fake m

Lady Fang was flattered, and Princess Ning Sheng's eyes also turned red.

"Mother, did Father really say that?"

Queen Qin smiled and nodded, "You still don't believe what I said? Your father is not a heartless person. Compared with other emperors, he doesn't have many concubines in the harem. Now he only has three princes and one princess. Doesn't he love them like his own baby? Don't worry, stay with your mother in Zhaoyun Palace. When she gives birth to the child safely, this matter will be over. I will leave Ziying to you. She is a member of my palace and a seventh-rank official in the inner court. She can enter and leave Zhaoyun Palace freely. If there is anything you can't solve, let her come to me. Remember?"

Princess Ning Sheng bowed and said, "Thank you, mother."

Lady Fang's eyes also turned red. "Thank you, Queen, for your consideration..."

"Just focus on your pregnancy and don't think too much about other things. His Majesty knows who is threatening you behind the scenes, but he has no reason to kill her right now. Just be patient and wait. House arrest may not be a bad thing. If you can't go out, people outside who want to harm you can't come in. You must understand His Majesty's thoughts and don't hold any grudges against him..."

"The concubine dare not..."

After seeing Queen Qin off, the mother and daughter sat in silence, feeling only sadness in their hearts.

Lady Fang secretly sighed, fortunately, her daughter would not follow in Princess Yue'an's footsteps...

Your Majesty is a wise ruler and a good father...

Her daughter will surely be safe and happy.

Mu Ruge asked for leave from the palace and returned to the Duke's Mansion on the grounds that she missed her parents and sisters.

Since she entered the palace, she seldom returned home, so whenever she came back, Mrs. Lan was extremely happy. She even ordered people to clean the yard where she lived every day and never slacked off.

When she heard that her daughter was coming back, she hurriedly sent someone to clean the house again and even bought many jade ornaments.

very busy.

Even when Mu Yingyu spoke to her, she waved her hand impatiently and told her to go and amuse herself.

Mu Yingyu wandered around the mansion in a daze, and came to Taoyuan, but the door was closed. She then remembered that Mu Qingyan had been summoned to the palace by the Queen Mother and had not returned yet.

"Chuntao, tell me, was I picked up by my mother from somewhere?" She looked at the closed door, as if muttering to herself.

Chun Tao bowed and replied, "Miss San, please don't let Madam hear what you said, otherwise, you will be punished again..."

Mu Yingyu smiled bitterly, "Look, even you know that mother only punishes me... She doesn't even know that I will get a rash if I eat hazelnuts, and she still orders people to send me hazelnut cakes every day..."

In the past, she always told herself that her mother was in charge of the household affairs and had a lot of complicated affairs, so it was normal for her to be careless for a while.

But my sister entered the palace at a young age and was rarely at home, but my mother remembered all her likes and taboos.

"Third Miss..."

"Let's go, let's go out for a walk. Anyway, my second sister is back, and mother doesn't have the heart to punish me."

Chuntao hurriedly followed.

Mu Qingyan was riding in Prince Ling's carriage on the street when she ran into Mu Yingyu who was strolling on the street. "Ayu!"

She lifted the car curtain and shouted.

Mu Yingyu turned around and asked, "You left the palace? Why didn't you come back with my second sister?"

Ok?

"Mu Ruge left the palace?"

"Yes, mother has received the news and is busy and happy at home..." Mu Yingyu could not hide the disappointment on her face.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with her, Mu Qingyan told the driver to continue driving.

Did Mu Ruge leave the palace to avoid the limelight? After all, the emperor and the empress knew that she was behind this matter, but they couldn't find a suitable reason to punish her. After all, she is the daughter of the Duke of the current dynasty, so they still have to give her some face. But if the empress makes a mistake today, I'm afraid the heads of the entire Mu family will not be enough to chop off, right? Speaking of which, she also saved the entire Mu family!

"You don't hate her?" Prince Ling thought that she was the kind of person who would never let go of a grudge. In order to hook up with Prince Chong, Mu Yingyu jumped into the lake and framed Mu Qingyan. Could she let this matter go?

"What's there to hate about a woman whose scheming is clearly visible on her face? Compared to what her mother did, what she did is nothing... Besides, I was pushed into the water back then, and without her, I wouldn't have survived, so it can be considered a compensation..."

"How are you going to deal with your mother's matter?"

Mu Qingyan shook her head. "Although there are witnesses now, the one-sided words of a few ordinary people are not enough to prove her guilt. Behind her is not only the Duke's Mansion, but also the Mingyuan Earl's Mansion, and the Queen Mother. Mu Ruge has been operating in the inner court for many years, and I believe she is not without foundation. With so many people escorting her, what can a few testimonies of a few ordinary people do to her? My grandfather is coming back soon. The old man has been guarding the border for many years and was not able to be by his side when his daughter died. If he finds out that there is a doubt about the cause of her death, I don’t know what will happen..."

The original owner was exiled since childhood and only heard news about these relatives from an old maid, but had never seen them.

There isn't much emotion involved, but Nanny Su is right, it's better to have loved ones than to be alone and helpless.

If they are not good enough, then stay away from them. If they are good, then it is okay to enjoy them...

She knew how hard it was for the marchers.

Moreover, under the conditions of being intercepted and intercepted by various means, and withholding of food and military supplies, they had to defend Chiling Pass to the death. The hardship was beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

"Are you worried that the Gu family is not nice? And doesn't want to get close to you?"

Mu Qingyan Wenran suddenly looked up at him, feeling slightly excited in his heart. He could actually see what he was really thinking?

According to normal thinking, the original owner had suffered for so many years, and the Gu family did not send anyone to ask about it, so it was normal for her to make such a guess. After all, the original owner was just a little girl who longed for people's care and love, and she did not understand the hard work of guarding the border.

Long-term expectations that are not met will turn into resentment.

"In fact, you don't have to worry about these things. Chiling Pass is always in turmoil. Either the Yi Kingdom invades or Beiqi disturbs. Someone is deliberately blocking food and military supplies behind the scenes. Soldiers often go hungry and have to go to the battlefield. Your cousins ​​often have to go out to recruit new soldiers, and your grandmother and aunts often have to run around to raise food and supplies for the frontline soldiers. They also have to settle the people who were displaced by the war. The Gu family really spared no effort to defend Chiling Pass..."

Mu Qingyan's eyes turned red without her realizing it.

In her previous life, she had greatly admired these iron warriors who guarded the border.

I think that anyone with a conscience would be unable to hold back tears after hearing these things.

From this perspective, it is understandable that the Gu family was too busy to take care of the original owner...

"Thank you for telling me this..."

She lowered her head, and crystal clear tears fell on her hands. A gray handkerchief was handed to her eyes, "Wipe it..."
