"Empress Dowager, please take care of yourself. You must take care of yourself! The Emperor and the Prince are counting on you to mediate!" The nanny at the side walked to the ground worriedly.

"Alas, I know this very well! Now, I just want the two brothers to get along with each other! At least we can maintain peace while I am alive!" The Queen Mother said helplessly.

"Since ancient times, pillow talk has been the most effective!" the nanny reminded cautiously.

The Queen Mother's eyes suddenly lit up, and her expression softened. "Indeed, it is true. Two days ago, the nanny sent me news that the princess has taken good care of the prince and the two of them are getting along much better. Come, declare war on the princess!"

"Hey!"

Standing at the gate of Cining Palace, Chu Wanyu sighed.

She felt that this palace was really incompatible with her, and she felt extremely depressed every time she entered the palace.

She took a deep breath, then walked in slowly, bowed slightly and said, "Greetings to the Empress Dowager!"

"We are all family, no need to be so polite." The Queen Mother responded with a smile, and then turned to the palace maids beside her, "Come and give us a seat!"

Seeing the Empress Dowager's pleasant expression, Chu Wanyu felt even more uneasy. Her heart sank slightly and her expression became more cautious.

Sure enough, after a few simple pleasantries, the Queen Mother suddenly changed the subject and said with a smile, "Prince Zhan has been too radical in the court these days. As his wife, you should advise him promptly."

Advise.

Hearing these two words, Chu Wanyu instantly understood the Queen Mother's intention.

Now everyone in the court knows that the emperor and Xiao Lijing appear to be on good terms with each other, but in fact they are constantly competing with each other in secret.

The emperor tried his best to suppress him, and Xiao Lijing was not willing to be outdone. The two of them went back and forth, and the battle was very lively.

Chu Wanyu pondered for a moment before speaking, "Empress Dowager! The prince has been extremely busy lately, and we haven't seen each other much..."

Before she could finish her euphemism, the Queen Mother's face darkened and her tone deepened: "As the princess, you should take good care of the prince! This is your dereliction of duty!"

"Yes!"

Chu Wanyu immediately pretended to lower her eyebrows and said, "The Queen Mother is right. When I return, I will take good care of the prince's health!"

Knowing that the Queen Mother was extremely stubborn, she decided to change her strategy in order to reduce unnecessary trouble.

It was rare to see Chu Wanyu so docile. The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction, "Heaven, Earth, Emperor, Parents, and Teacher, Your Majesty cannot afford to lose face. You are a smart person and you know what to do!"

Chu Wanyu nodded and responded again: "Yes! My daughter-in-law knows!"

Listen carefully, I know it, but I don’t say you have to do it.

The Empress Dowager sensed something was wrong, but couldn't find what was wrong at the moment, so she gave a few more instructions.

After leaving the Cining Palace, Chu Wanyu looked at the several large boxes of rewards following behind her.

Her eyes curved and she smiled brightly, and her steps became lighter.

After getting on the carriage, she couldn't wait to open the boxes of rewards. Seeing those priceless treasures, she almost drooled.

A pair of Ruyi, exquisitely carved purple coral, and priceless jade bracelets... The most satisfying thing is a set of phoenix crown and bridal bridal gown.

According to the rules, the Queen Mother would give a set of gifts to each princess every year when she got married.

Chu Wanyu was not likable, and the Queen Mother was very dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law, so she did not give her any rewards at the wedding, but only gave her some perfunctory rewards.

However, Chu Wanyu's eyes flickered as she asked softly, "Xia Lu, tell me, what happened in the court?"

I have been busy with the antidote these days and have paid little attention to the affairs of the court.

Xia Lu lowered her voice and recounted the major changes in the court.

hiss!

Sure enough, an expert can tell whether it is good or not at a glance.

Others in the court were just making small moves, but Xiao Lijing was taking drastic measures.

In just a few days, the ministers of three of the six ministries had been beheaded.

That was the Shangshu, who had served in the court for decades to climb to that position. As a result, Xiao Lijing caught him with evidence of corruption and abuse of power and beheaded him in public.

Thinking of the rumors outside, the War King is cruel and bloodthirsty...

She nodded in understanding: "That's ruthless!"

This way you will be more like an invincible god of war on the battlefield.

After returning home, Chu Wanyu changed her clothes and was about to take a nap when the old housekeeper hurried over.

"Your Highness, your younger sister, the County Princess, is here to see you!"

Younger sister from your natal family?

County Lady?

She recognized each of these words individually, but when they were put together, Chu Wanyu fell into a moment of confusion.

Seeing him like this, Dongxue whispered, "It's the Second Miss!"

"So it's him!" Chu Wanyu rolled her eyes. "This princess is busy and has no time to see him! If he doesn't know what's good for him, I'll beat him out!"

"Yes!"

The old butler clasped his hands together and slowly walked out.

Just as he reached the door, Chu Wanyu changed her mind, "Forget it, let him in. This princess wants to see what he wants to do!"

After changing her clothes, Chu Wanyu sat upright and waited quietly.

Then, there was the sound of chaotic footsteps, and then Chu Ruoran walked in with a group of people behind him.

A county lady was followed by more than ten people to serve her.

When enemies meet, their eyes are filled with jealousy. As soon as Chu Ruoran walked in, his eyes were bloodshot and his gaze was icy cold. If eyes could kill, Chu Wanyu would have been cut into pieces long ago.
