Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 325

Thinking that he would go out and deliver the message.

Granny Jin breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you, Eunuch Fu."

"You should also try to persuade the Empress Dowager to stop those people from stirring things up. If the Empress Dowager and the Emperor keep arguing like this, everyone will have a hard time."

Zhou Zhilan was dragged away and beaten with a cane.

Granny Jin glanced at her and felt a little flustered. "The Empress Dowager doesn't like Miss Yun, and she doesn't like the Emperor seeing her either."

"The only way to stop the Empress Dowager from targeting Yun Xiyue is for the Emperor to establish an Empress."

The emperor delayed in establishing an empress and showed no interest in the women in the harem, yet he favored a woman who had been married before.

His identity and other aspects are all questionable.

The Empress Dowager was worried that the Emperor would be misled if things continued this way, and that he would then appoint Yunxi Yue as Empress!

Ultimately, the Empress Dowager just wanted the Emperor to establish an Empress.

Grandpa Fu sighed inwardly.

"His Majesty's high regard for Miss Yun is also for the sake of the overall situation. The Empress Dowager only knows one side of the story of court affairs, not the other."

"Putting aside everything else, Miss Yun recently gave the Emperor a lot of silver, which solved the problem of the national treasury deficit. The second master of the Qin family embezzled military funds, and the national treasury has no way of filling this huge hole. The Qin Prince's Mansion would never admit to having so much silver. In the end, the Yun family also filled the gap of two million taels. The three major families in the capital are all richer than the other."

"But look, who among them is willing to unconditionally give so much silver to help the Emperor? Every single one of them is asking for an exorbitant amount! Granny Jin, the Yun family will be inherited by Miss Yun in the future, and there's a reason why the Emperor values ​​Miss Yun."

Granny Jin exclaimed in surprise, "Then she came to see the Emperor today...?"

"To save Young Master Yun, the Emperor intends to support the Yun family, which is also for the sake of the overall situation of the court. However, the Empress Dowager always tries to trip up the Emperor, which makes the Emperor very sad!" Eunuch Fu wiped away his tears, feeling sorry for his master.

Granny Jin's eyes darkened. She would go back after Zhou Zhilan finished administering the punishment.

"Thank you, Eunuch Fu. I'll head back now."

After she left, Eunuch Fu quickly slipped into the Imperial Study to report.

The Empress Dowager had clearly sent someone to investigate.

Upon hearing this, Murong Yu gave him an approving look, "Then send someone to release Young Master Yun, and change his status to house arrest at the Yun residence. Have Leng Yan send people to surround the Yun residence."

"We will make a decision after we find out the truth about the assassination of Prince Rui."

Eunuch Fu quickly praised, "Your Majesty's move is truly brilliant."

"The young lady will be very touched to know this, and she can't live without Your Majesty."

Murong Yu scoffed, "You're all you know how to flatter."

"Tell her to leave the door open for me tonight."

Once Eunuch Fu understood, he immediately left the palace to take care of the matter.

When Yun Xiyue returned home, Yun Xiaohan had already been released.

"Commander Leng?"

Leng Yan, who was faster, left the palace before Eunuch Fu. Seeing her alight from the carriage, he cupped his hands and said, "Miss Yun, the Emperor has ordered that there is currently no evidence to prove that Young Master Yun assassinated Prince Rui, but Prince Rui's life is hanging by a thread. Therefore, Young Master Yun has been released and is under house arrest at the Yun residence. We have come here on imperial orders."

Yun Xiyue was secretly delighted. Moving her brother from his place of confinement to the Yun residence was equivalent to releasing him.

Leng Yanlai surrounded Yunfu.

Ostensibly under surveillance, but in reality under protection.

"Thank you, Commander Leng." She hurried into the mansion and ordered people to serve the guards good food and drink.

However, these imperial guards dared not accept the Yun family's kindness so casually.

They don't drink a drop of water while on duty, and only dare to eat something when they are on break.

The people around the emperor are definitely different.

"Big brother."

Yun Xiaohan was taking a bath.

Xiao Ling'er smiled and said, "My husband was able to return thanks to you. Yue'er, the Emperor really treats you differently."

Yun Xiyue subconsciously touched her neck, afraid of being discovered. "It is Your Majesty's wisdom. I told Your Majesty that my elder brother and Prince Rui have no grudge against each other and there is no reason for him to assassinate Prince Rui."
