Dethroned the Crown Princess? Then she became your mother

She called out "Your Majesty".

Murong Shuo turned to her, but she did not ask if his face hurt.

At the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, the carriage that Zhang Tianai and the others were riding in slowly drove away, and the main gate closed.

The doormen entered the mansion and informed the people waiting inside that the carriage had left.

Upon hearing the news, the people waiting returned immediately and quickly.

Nanny Yu, who was observing in a corner, witnessed the whole process and then returned cautiously.

She needs to go back and report to the old lady.

The old lady had sent her to observe, but she was a little delayed. When she arrived, the eldest girl had already got into the carriage, and she could not see clearly whether there was anyone else in the carriage.

"Old lady." She returned to the reception room and saw the old lady still sitting upright, tapping the low table with her hands, as if she was getting a little impatient.

She immediately stepped forward and called out.

The old lady of Weiyuan Marquis Mansion heard her voice, turned to her, her eyes lingered on her for a moment, then looked outside the door, asking if she had seen it.

Nanny Yu nodded and was about to continue her story, but the old lady interrupted her and told her to go back and talk later and not to continue here.

"Oh? Yes." Nanny Yu responded and instantly understood the old lady's hint.

The eldest daughter's return like this would inevitably be discovered, and the old lady was worried about who would know. Before, perhaps no one outside the mansion noticed, but now the situation was unpredictable.

"Yes, old lady." She responded again.

The old lady of Weiyuan Marquis' Mansion walked out, supported by Yu Ma, and the master and servant walked out together.

From the looks of it, there seemed to be no one around.

They returned to their own yard.

After sitting down, Mrs. Zhao, the wife of the first wife of the Weiyuan Marquis's Mansion, was also asking about the news from her mother-in-law.

They sent people to investigate, but were stopped.

They waited until now to find out that the mother-in-law had returned to the yard and had not revealed any information, including not telling them who had seen her.

"Why didn't mother tell me?" Zhao was puzzled.

"She must have met someone important, and this matter must be very serious! The Emperor suddenly told the Marquis that he would send someone to see Mother-in-law and not allow anyone else to see her. There must be a deeper meaning. Mother-in-law must have known who that person was after she met him, so why didn't she say it? Doesn't she know we are all waiting?"

There must be a special reason behind the person who can make the emperor come to the mansion to meet the mother-in-law.

It's all so weird.

There must be some secret she doesn't know yet!

Did the emperor know about Zhang Tianai and sent someone to find my mother-in-law to inquire about it?

Otherwise, why only let the mother-in-law see them and not them?

She was worried that her mother-in-law would tell the emperor everything without reservation.

After all, Zhang Tianai was once the Crown Princess, and her daughter took her place and became the current Crown Princess.

She looked at the Marquis.

Weiyuan Hou sat quietly, holding a cup of tea in his hand, while stroking the beard on his chin, slowly and bit by bit.

He sat as steady as a mountain, and it was unknown what he was thinking.

Zhao felt his gaze and asked, "My Lord."

Her voice was gentle, and she walked up to the Marquis with a handkerchief in her hand, wanting to ask, "Aren't you in a hurry?"

"I don't know whether the emperor has arrived," Weiyuan Hou replied in a low and rough voice. "The emperor has not mentioned it to me."

Marquis Weiyuan took another sip of tea and put down the cup. His face had a serious expression and his beard was very long, covering most of his face. He looked tall, mighty and imposing.

Her voice was even more pressing, "My Lord, I don't know whether the Emperor has come or not, I just want to know what happened!"

Zhao said that she had to get to the bottom of the matter, otherwise she would not be able to rest easy.

After hearing this, Marquis Weiyuan said, "You all want to know the truth, and so do I. But the Emperor has already instructed us not to speculate or delve into this matter too much. We should just sit here and not dwell on it."

Zhao Shi, however, could not calm down. "My Lord, how can we not think about it? I must know the truth!"

She said that she couldn't feel at ease and couldn't do anything until she figured it out.

She had dealt with Zhang Tianai before.

What worried Zhao was what the Emperor had sent someone to tell her. Why would the Emperor only want to see her mother-in-law? Such a mysterious matter, involving the Emperor, Ci'er, and the Crown Prince, made her feel very uneasy.

"If you really want to know, then go and find out for yourself." Weiyuan Hou said finally.

It’s not that Marquis Weiyuan doesn’t want to know, nor is he without some concerns.

The emperor's decree has been issued, and he always keeps it in mind.

The emperor once told him not to ask too many questions and to remain silent about everything.

"My Lord," Zhao tried to gently shake his hand, "you have to understand this."

Marquis Weiyuan continued to repeat the same words.

Zhao was slightly stunned, and a gentle expression similar to Zhang Tianci's appeared on her face.

She gently tugged at the Marquis's sleeve again, "Aren't you worried about the impact this will have on the Crown Princess and Ci'er? Our Ci'er has just gotten married, are you really not worried about any unexpected changes?"

"You have always valued Ci'er and loved her very much. The title of Crown Princess is what we have always hoped for."

After hearing this, Weiyuan Hou let out a light "uh" sound, and then thought: "Ci'er will be fine. What could happen? This has nothing to do with her!" He firmly believed that there was no connection at all.

He felt that this didn't seem to matter much. The emperor had only summoned his mother alone.

"But why did the emperor send someone to meet my mother-in-law alone?" Zhao was still confused.

"This... I don't know either." Weiyuan Hou answered again.

Zhao couldn't help but sigh: "This is really too mysterious."

Marquis Weiyuan was silent for a moment, looking at his wife's beautiful and delicate face, his heart softened, and he could neither be hard nor cruel.

His wife had always been his weak spot. She kept asking questions, and he couldn't really push the blame on her. He decided to try his best to get some information.

"I will try my best to find out." Weiyuan Hou said firmly.

"How does the Marquis plan to enter the palace to inquire?" Zhao asked.

Weiyuan Hou admitted that he was not clear about the specific method.

Zhao was a little surprised - the Marquis actually said that he didn't know how to enter the palace to inquire.

Weiyuan Hou said: "Let's first see if anyone saw the relevant situation. If not, I will go to the palace to ask the emperor, or..." His words revealed helplessness.

After hearing this, Zhao immediately sent people to inquire about the news.

The entire Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, not just Weiyuan Marquis and the Zhao family, but even other people who knew about this matter were talking about it, and they all said that they didn't know what had happened.

For example, the members of the second and third houses of Weiyuan Marquis' Mansion knew even less information.

They were even more confused as to why this happened!

Although the uncle didn't tell them anything, they still sent people to secretly investigate. However, due to the special circumstances, it was not easy to send people to follow...

At this time, they knew very little, so they wanted to ask their eldest sister-in-law.

Zhao didn't say much.

Not long after, someone came back to report some news, and Zhao learned some new information.

Her expression gradually became heavy.

How is my mother-in-law doing? Zhao couldn't help but feel a little worried. She was waiting for the person she sent to see her mother-in-law to come back.

Marquis Weiyuan also waved his hand, asking everyone not to focus on this matter.

However, Zhao thought, how could she not keep an eye on it?

The old lady of Weiyuan Marquis' Mansion returned to her own courtyard, sat down with Yu Ma, drank a sip of water, and started talking.

"The eldest lady has already left and got on the carriage." said Yu Ma.

"Oh." The old lady replied without asking any more questions. Then, Yu Ma continued to describe what she had seen.

Regarding the Emperor and his beloved son...

emperor?
