Taking away my family's luck? I won't stand it!

When the old lady heard what Taoist Hu said, an expression of pain and guilt appeared on her face.

Taoist Hu shook his head when he saw this. What's the use of feeling guilty? How can one get wealth that one cannot accumulate in several lifetimes in one night without sacrificing something?

Do you really think taking someone's life is a good thing?

I have been helping the Yuan family for so many years just to get what we need.

When the master wakes up it will be time for him to collect his reward.

The painful and guilty expression on the old lady's face only lasted for a moment, and soon returned to normal.

"Master Hu, I will withdraw first. If you have anything to do, please ask the housekeeper to do it."

Taoist Hu looked at the old lady who quickly recovered her composure and nodded slightly to indicate that he understood.

The door was closed, and Taoist Hu closed his eyes, meditated, and practiced qigong to heal his internal injuries.

The old lady walked into the courtyard and looked at the plants and trees in the yard, the rockery, the small bridge, the flowing water, the fish playing in the water, the gorgeous and fragrant lotus flowers, and the servants in the garden tending to the flowers and plants.

The maid in the mansion was hurriedly carrying tea. When she saw her, she still remembered the rules of the mansion and stopped, bowed her head and respectfully called her "Old Madam".

They have no worries about food and drink, and there are people to serve them. The family's status is rooted in the imperial palace in the capital. Which dignitary in the capital dares to look down on the Yuan family?

These scenes were unimaginable more than 20 years ago...

Now everything is what the Yuan family deserves.

No one can take it back!

........................

Princess Anguo was carried out of Taoist Hu's house by the Prime Minister's wife. She really couldn't understand why her grandmother, who had always been gentle to her, suddenly became so mean to her.

Since the Yuan family members are still alive, shouldn’t grandma send assassins to take their lives?

Why do you firmly believe that the Yuan family members are dead?

The master's expression was also weird.

Are grandma and master hiding something from her?

"An'er, I'm going to see your father outside the palace. Your father hasn't come out of the palace yet. This is not right." The Prime Minister's wife placed Princess Anguo on the bed and touched her hair gently.

Princess Anguo pulled her consciousness back from her thoughts, shook her head, grabbed the Prime Minister's wife's hand, and said in a sweet voice, "No, I want to go with my mother and wait for father to come out."

As soon as she asked, the Prime Minister's wife quickly nodded.

"Okay, I'll take you to wait for your father to come out."

The Prime Minister's Mansion is only half an hour away from the Imperial Palace.

Outside the palace, there were carriages filled with servants from various government offices waiting to take the master back.

Everyone looked at the palace gate eagerly.

"What's going on? Normally, the court would have been dismissed by this time, but it's been two hours and the master still hasn't come out."

The servant of the Minister of History stood on tiptoe and said with a strange look on his face.

Suddenly, a carriage hurriedly stopped in front of the palace gate, and a hand stretched out from the luxurious carriage and handed the thing in his hand to the guard guarding the gate.

The guard took it and waved for the door to open.

The luxurious carriage drove into the palace.

"Isn't carriages prohibited in the palace? Who is the person in this carriage and how could he have such qualifications?"

Someone asked curiously.

"You don't understand this, right? This is Duke Lu! The prince's great-grandfather, of course he has the qualifications."

Someone helped him solve the problem.

"Look at how anxious Duke Lu is. Could something have happened in the palace?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's face changed drastically.

The thing that officials in the court fear most is major events happening in the palace.

It was the wrath of the emperor, with millions of corpses floating on the surface and blood flowing for thousands of miles.

Thinking of this, the servants from various mansions waiting at the palace gate went home to report the news.

If something really happened in the palace, they had to prepare a way out.

The Prime Minister's wife and Princess Anguo were sitting in the carriage, listening to the noises outside, their faces filled with worry.

Could something really have happened?

I just don’t know what the emperor found out.

They waited at the palace gate for a full hour before the tightly closed gate slowly opened.

Hundreds of court officials walked out.

The Prime Minister walked in front.

Behind him, every official had a look of having survived a disaster on his face.

The Prime Minister saw the carriage waiting outside the palace and walked up with a cold face.

I lifted the car curtain and saw two people, one big and one small, with stunned expressions.

The Prime Minister's wife glanced at the palace and asked, "Master, what happened in the palace? I think even Duke Lu is alarmed."

The Prime Minister sighed.

"The Emperor was suddenly attacked and poisoned while in the court. Everyone present became a suspect. The imperial guards surrounded the court tightly and did not let us go until the Emperor was out of danger."

"Who assassinated the emperor? Have you found out?"

The Prime Minister's wife asked hurriedly.

"No, the opponent is so skilled and agile that even the Xiaoying Guards couldn't catch him." The Prime Minister shook his head.

Princess Anguo pursed her lips and moved her butt.

Just as the two were about to talk about what happened in the palace, all the officials in front of the palace gate came towards them excitedly.

"It's Princess Anguo!"

"When did the princess come here? Could she have been in front of the city gate all along?"

"No wonder the Emperor was able to escape so easily. It turns out Princess Anguo was here! It must have been Princess Anguo who saved the Emperor and cleared us of suspicion!"

Princess Anguo came out of the carriage and saw that all the officials were looking at her with pious expressions, and she smiled gently.

The voice is soft.

"Don't say that. It was a blessing from heaven that saved the emperor. I just came with my mother to take my father back home."

The more they said this, the more the officials believed that it was because of Princess Anguo that the emperor escaped danger.

Princess Anguo looked at the red lines on the officials' bodies and curled her lips slightly.

It's time to take it back.

.........................

The provincial capital.

Yuan family.

While eating, Guoan looked at the emperor curiously.

She stared at the emperor with her big round eyes, and didn't even realize that she had picked up a chili pepper with her chopsticks and put it into her mouth.

A stimulating and hot feeling attacked his mouth, so spicy that he dropped the chopsticks in his hand and quickly went to get some water.

"You kid, why are you looking at others instead of eating properly? It's your turn." Old Mrs. Liu scolded.

Guoan covered his mouth with his sleeve, his tongue pressed against the fabric, and tears streamed down his face.

Hearing Old Lady Liu scolding him, he felt a little dissatisfied and said, "I'm just curious about what will happen to the palace after the emperor leaves."

Everyone was stunned and looked at the emperor who was picking up food for Yan'er and Yue'er.

The emperor put down his chopsticks and said with a smile, "I have naturally arranged everything. When we arrive in the capital, my substitute will pretend to be poisoned and rest for a few days."

"Oh."

Everyone nodded.

It turned out to be the case.

It turns out there is a substitute.
