After much deliberation, Weng Yan decided to assist Weng Ruoyun.

"Father, the one who lives with Your Majesty day and night is Weng Ruoyun. She is pregnant with a legitimate prince, the future crown prince of the Empress. If Weng Ruoyun has a kind heart, why not let it go?"

When Weng Yan said this, he continued to discuss with his father Weng Huai.

"Father, I am telling you now that I want Weng Ruoyun to marry into the palace as a legitimate daughter."

Weng Yan knew how glorious it was for a court official to marry his legitimate daughter. After much thought, he decided to explain it to his father Weng Huai to prevent his family from knowing the truth in the future and coming into conflict with Weng Ruoyun.

He was even more worried that if Weng Ruoyun was deeply favored by Qin Yan, then thinking of letting her marry into the palace in a grand manner, she would definitely not embarrass the Weng family in the future.

Now they can only make the best of a bad situation and let Weng Ruoyun marry into the palace. Weng Yan must give her enough respect when she gets married.

When the crime of deceiving the emperor is made public one day, I believe I can still save the lives of the ten members of the Weng family!

After listening to his son Weng Yan's explanation, Weng Huai thought about it carefully and felt that there was some truth in it, so he continued to give him careful instructions.

"Well, since Weng Ruoyun is marrying into the palace as the legitimate daughter of our Weng family, we should give her enough respect. We should not spend a single cent of the palace, nor should we extort the people's money. We should raise some money at home and choose two pieces of better fabric for her wedding dress."

Weng Huai knew that his son Weng Yan did this because he felt that the provincial government could not afford to lose face in front of him.

Now that His Majesty Qin Yan has issued an edict to grant the marriage, you can't say that the future queen is missing, right?

Besides, Qin Yan doted on Weng Ruoyun. Even though the first prince was not saved, she was favored again before she was out of the confinement period.

Weng Huai thought carefully. Weng Ruoyun is in favor now. If he recognizes her as his granddaughter, it will surely bring honor to the Weng family.

"Father, can you please explain this to mother?"

Weng Yansheng was afraid that his mother Xu Hui would blame him, so he hoped that his father Weng Huai could explain the matter to his mother.

"Okay, that's it. Let's go to the county and find the best craftsman to make wedding gowns. We should do it without delay."

Although Weng Huai's face was filled with sorrow, he could only bear the pain of his granddaughter's disappearance and accept Weng Ruoyun, the fake granddaughter, in a short period of time!

Weng Huai was worried about his granddaughter Weng Ruoyun but did not dare to look for her privately!

Now the provincial government is guarded inside and out by the Imperial Guards, and they will not be withdrawn until Weng Ruoyun enters the palace.

But Weng Huai carefully recalled his son Weng Yan's explanation, and was now feeling distressed and worried about his granddaughter Weng Ruoyun.

He also had to meet his fake granddaughter Weng Ruoyun, and pretend to be a close family before she entered the palace.

Weng Huai was leaning on a cane, his mind filled with memories of his well-behaved and lively granddaughter.

Weng Huai unknowingly walked towards the boudoir where his granddaughter Weng Ruoyun once lived.

In the past, my granddaughter Weng Ruoyun’s boudoir was noisy and lively, but now someone else lives in her boudoir!

Looking at the snowflakes falling from the gloomy winter sky, the cold winter, and the withered peach tree outside the boudoir door.

The palace maids and two maids were standing on both sides of the door. When Weng Huai approached the door of the boudoir unknowingly, he saw the palace maids kneeling down to salute.

"This servant has met the Emperor, Master Weng."

The palace maid, who was usually trained to be very clever, lightly touched the right side of her lower abdomen with her orchid finger and bowed slightly to greet Weng Huai.

"No need to be polite, no need to be polite. I just want to come and see if my granddaughter Ruoyun is feeling better."

Weng Huai was really frightened by the greetings of the twenty or so palace maids in front of him. He quickly came to his senses and explained to the palace maids in a kind tone the reason for his visit.

"Old Master Weng, the Queen is ill and cannot stand the wind. You are here at the wrong time."

The man with cold eyes, a somewhat rough appearance, and an unkind tone is Zhao Lang, who acted on his own without stepping forward to report.

"Master Weng, the weather is unusual today. It has been snowing for several days. You are old now. Are you afraid of falling when you walk here alone today?

Nanny Zhao Lang looked like a smug villain. She didn't even look at Weng Huai, her eyes were full of disdain.

“How dare a lowly palace maid speak to Old Master Weng, the father of the imperial family and the governor, in such an unkind tone?

A stern rebuke was heard, and the person who came was none other than Zheng Yu, the head of the Lizheng Palace and the wet nurse of the current emperor Qin Yan.

"Zheng...Zheng...Empress Zheng? I am short-sighted and thought it was someone pretending to be a royal relative. I just admitted my mistake!"

The first to kneel was Madam Zhao Lang, her rough figure trembling with fear.

"Since you are short-sighted, then drag him away and dig out his eyes. Next time, you will remember this lesson. Drag him away and don't disturb the Queen's rest."

Nanny Zheng Yu's tone left no room for doubt, and Nanny Zhao Lang, who was crying and begging for mercy, was dragged out of the provincial government.

"Master Zheng, please spare my life. I know I was wrong. It was the Empress Dowager who asked me to take care of the Queen."

Nanny Zhao Lang no longer had the smug look she had just now. She was so scared that she knelt on the ground and begged for her life from Nanny Zheng Yu, calling herself a slave.

"Why do I feel that Madam Zhao is threatening me? Drag her to the provincial governor's office, cut off her eyes, chop off her arms, and I want to see how Zhao Lang complains to the Grand Empress Dowager."

It can be seen that Nanny Zheng Yu was not afraid of Empress Dowager Xiao Qingbi.

It would have been fine if the Grand Empress Dowager Xiao Qingyu was not mentioned, but as soon as the Grand Empress Dowager Zhao Lang was mentioned, she was dragged out.

Then, the miserable voice of Nanny Zhao Lang came from outside the provincial government gate.

"My eyes, I want to tell the Empress Dowager, uh... uh... uh..."

The kind-hearted Weng Huai was so frightened by Nanny Zheng Yu's cruel methods and severe punishment that he almost fell down. Fortunately, the palace maid was quick to help him stand.

Then Nanny Zheng Yu spoke to Weng Huai in a very polite tone.

"Master Weng, please don't blame me. When the marriage proposal was made, we also looked at the family tree. Although the Empress is the legitimate daughter of the provincial government, her marriage to the royal family has nothing to do with the Weng family."

Nanny Zheng Yu pretended to be embarrassed and explained to Weng Huai.

"The Empress is in poor health now. She had a miscarriage and has been in confinement for less than a month. She cannot see the wind, but it's not that I won't let you see her."

After hearing this, Weng Huai smiled indifferently. After all the talk, he was still not allowed to see her, so he could only express his apology and make himself look bad.

"I am being rude today."

"Mr. Weng is joking. You are so abrupt when you are one of us. I will have someone take you back right away."

After chatting for a while, Nanny Zheng Yu asked the palace maid to send Weng Huai back.

"Grandfather, please stay."

Just as Weng Huai was about to leave, Qin Yan opened the door of the boudoir himself. He was dressed in a sky-blue plain dress and spoke in a gentle and elegant manner.

"I bow to your majesty, long live your majesty."

When Weng Huai turned around and saw Qin Yan, he knelt down to salute.

"Grandfather, please don't be polite. It's cold in the courtyard. Let's go inside and talk. The Queen got pregnant again less than a month after her miscarriage. I was worried, so I took care of the Queen for a few days. The Queen was worried about your grandfather's old age, so she asked me to come out and invite you in."

Qin Yan was very polite and went to support Weng Huai with a smile.

"Qin Yan, what are you doing? I'm freezing to death."

Qin Yan carefully helped Weng Huai open the door and enter the boudoir. Weng Ruoyun was reading a book in the living room of the boudoir.

When the door of the boudoir was opened, a gust of cold wind blew towards Weng Ruoyun, and she shivered with cold.

"It's cold outside, I'll help Grandfather in to rest."

After Qin Yan helped Weng Huai into the room, he helped Weng Huai sit on a chair in the hall.

"Your grandfather?"
