“Master, if that’s the case, then I’ll go down and comfort Xin’er.”

Xu Jinxin's mother left naturally after saying this.

Xu Jinxin returned to her courtyard and started venting her anger there.

"Why should I, this young lady, have to endure this, just because Qin Yu is a so-called princess?"

What makes a princess so arrogant these days?

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

They kept smashing things here, the crashing and banging sounds echoing throughout the yard.

Xu Jinxin's mother arrived at the scene and saw Xu Jinxin throwing things.

"stop!"

When Xu Jinxin's mother finished saying those two words, Xu Jinxin turned around and saw her mother.

Naturally, they all ran to their mother, feeling wronged.

"Your daughter never imagined she would suffer such humiliation in front of this princess."

Tears are falling here, one by one.

Xu Jinxin's mother was heartbroken to see this.

"Mother knows what's bothering you, but your father has already said a lot to me. I'm just here to comfort you. Please bear with it for now, okay?"

"But you must tell your mother honestly what kind of relationship you have with the Grand Tutor's son?"

If there really is something between them...

She could never agree to this, after all, her daughter was going to marry someone in power in the future.

This Grand Tutor's son is weak and incompetent; even if he has children, they are only his father's.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for him to marry his daughter to the son of the Grand Tutor.

"Mother, don't worry, there is nothing between me and the Grand Tutor's son."

It seems that there are indeed some difficulties between the two of them in the future.

If that's the case, then what's the best course of action next?

I never imagined things would develop to this point.

At first, I thought...

As it turned out...

Shangguan Nantian stayed inside the mansion.

He was extremely conflicted, wondering whether or not to go to the palace and speak with the emperor.

He only had one son, what if something happened to Shangguan Mufeng?

What is he going to do as a father now?

Shangguan Nantian then decided to personally go to the palace to speak with Qin Yanling and the other person.

After changing into his court robes, he hurriedly arrived at the palace gate.

"I wish to see His Majesty. Please go and report this now, Your Excellency."

Qin Yanling was taking a short rest in this room.

Suddenly, a eunuch came to report that Shangguan Nantian had come to see him.

Qin Yanling was a little puzzled for a moment. Why would she suddenly call Shangguan Nantian to her?

"My dear minister, is there something you wish to say here?"

"Your Majesty, I have come here to seek your assistance."

After saying this, he kowtowed heavily, as if afraid that Mo Yun would not help.

"If you have anything to say, stand up and speak to me. There is no need to kneel on the ground."

Then, Shangguan Nantian stood up.

"I beg Your Majesty and Her Highness the Princess to speak with them and see if my son can return to the palace. He is my only son, and if it were my son..."

As they were talking, Shangguan Nantian actually started crying in front of the emperor.

Qin Yanling could easily understand that Shangguan Nantian was extremely fond of his son.

"I understand what you are thinking, but as far as I know, my elder sister would not harm Shangguan Mufeng."

"But……"

Shangguan Nantian sighed silently in his heart.

"Moreover, what I want to tell you is that you should be happy, after all, your elder sister has taken an interest in Young Master Shangguan. If Young Master Shangguan can become the princess's consort, the wealth and honor he will enjoy..."

Even before Qin Yanling finished speaking, Shangguan Nantian understood Qin Yanling's intention.

Although Qin Yanling's words made a lot of sense, rumors circulated that Qin Yu was cold-blooded and ruthless.

Moreover, Qin Yu has now taken Shangguan Mufeng into the princess's residence, which...

Qin Yanling glanced down at Shangguan Nantian.

"It's late now, my dear minister, you should go back and rest early."

Shangguan Nantian knew that it would be of no use to talk to the emperor.

In the end, they had no choice but to leave.

After Shangguan Nantian left, Qin Yanling went to the Imperial Study to draft an imperial edict.

However, such an imperial edict naturally promoted Shangguan Nantian.

Time flew by and the second day arrived quickly.

Inside Shangguan Nantian's residence, a eunuch was standing next to Qin Yanling.

"Eunuch Jiang, what brings you here today? You've taken the time to personally visit my residence."

"I have come here on His Majesty's orders."

He then took out the imperial edict and knelt down on the ground with a thud.

"By the grace of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: Shangguan Nantian's son, Shangguan Mufeng, has won the favor of Princess Xin..."

The eunuchs were making a lot of noise here.

Shangguan Nantian originally thought that his son would be made a prince consort.

I never imagined that I would be the one to get promoted.

This truly surprised Shangguan Nantian.

"Lord Shangguan, you'd better accept the imperial decree quickly."

Jiang Yu said with a grin.

After Shangguan Nantian kowtowed in gratitude to Qin Yanling, he naturally accepted the imperial edict.

After the eunuch left, Shangguan Nantian carefully examined the contents of the imperial edict.

I never expected it to actually be true...

This truly shocked him.

He never imagined that he would be able to...

I thought I would spend my whole life stuck on this little hurdle.

However, the news of Shangguan Nantian's promotion naturally became known to the ministers in the court.

They were all astonished at that moment.

When Shangguan Mufeng learned of this, he hurriedly went to find Qin Yu.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for promoting my father."

Qin Yu was completely bewildered and knew nothing about it, so she nodded slightly.

After the person left, he asked the person next to him.

Only then did I learn that Shangguan Nantian had been promoted.

Although Qin Yu had this idea, she didn't consider it so quickly.

But unexpectedly, her younger brother actually...

"Your Majesty is here!"

Qin Yu was completely bewildered. How could Qin Yanling have time to personally visit the princess's residence?

Qin Yu naturally came to the gate of the princess's residence to greet Qin Yanling.

"Greetings to Your Majesty."

"Elder sister, there's no need for such politeness."

Qin Yu was quite curious as to why Qin Yanling had come here today.

If it were any other day, Qin Yu would probably be chosen to enter the palace.

They all arrived at the front hall of the princess's residence.

"How could the Emperor have time to come to my palace?"

"Elder sister, I am eager to meet you because you have recently taken in a male concubine named Shangguan Mufeng."

It turned out they had come to see Shangguan Mufeng, so naturally someone was sent to invite them over.
