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

Chapter 677

"I heard that Her Majesty the Empress wants to eat venison," someone said.

The Empress Dowager was furious, but because Ghost Hand was present, she didn't dare to curse. She just glared at Yun Xiyue with a accusatory look in her eyes, "Empress, you are pregnant and should not have left the palace."

"Consort Pei just cut her wrists and is in a weak state. She shouldn't be coming to Zijin Mountain. Why does the Empress Dowager insist on bringing her along?" Ghost Hand immediately retorted.

The Empress Dowager choked on her words, “That’s different. Fangfang is weak, but with the help of the imperial physicians, she can recover slowly. The Empress is pregnant, yet she’s still running around everywhere, which is irresponsible towards the child.”

"What if something goes wrong? Can we afford the consequences? In the end, it will only trouble the Emperor and cause him to get hurt because of her!"

Murong Yu said, "It was I who wanted to bring A-Yue here. If we are to investigate who is responsible, the hunting competition should never have been held in the first place."

"It is precisely because A-Yue is pregnant that I am worried about her and that I brought her along."

It was clear that if the argument continued, it would be King Liang's fault.

He quickly stepped forward and said, “Mother, Your Majesty, please don’t be angry. This is no one’s fault. Blame the assassins. But Your Majesty is incredibly brave! You killed more than a dozen assassins by yourself. By the time we arrived, Your Majesty had already dealt with them.”

It's quite normal for assassins to be lurking.

But Murong Yu's martial arts skills were so high that it was unexpected.

"Get out of here!" Murong Yu didn't want to see these people; they were all hypocritical.

The Empress Dowager did not leave. "Your Majesty, your actions have truly disheartened the ministers!"

"His Majesty comes to the hunting grounds to hunt. So whatever his reason for catching sika deer, it's all because he wants to hunt and relax."

"Why must the Empress Dowager blame the Empress?" At this moment, Madam Yun entered, already trying her best to suppress her anger. "My daughter is carrying the bloodline of your Murong family. As the husband and the father of the child, it is too much for the Emperor to go and catch a sika deer to nourish the Empress's body."

The Empress Dowager saw it but didn't want to argue. She took it as an admission of defeat when the woman stopped talking.

"I did not blame the Empress, but I was worried that she would have a miscarriage. I originally did not agree to her coming along."

"Madam Yun, please don't misunderstand. Whatever I do is for the good of the Emperor and the Empress."

Madam Yun snorted lightly, not wanting to argue with her, because she knew in her heart that the Empress Dowager was a clueless person.

No matter how much you reason with her, she won't be convinced.

The Empress Dowager instructed the Emperor to rest well before getting up and leaving.

On the first day, they caught quite a lot of prey that night.

We can hold a banquet now.

Madam Yun was overjoyed to learn that her daughter was pregnant with twins and took even better care of her.

"Your Majesty, if Yue'er gives birth to twins, whether it's a boy or a girl, you must give one to our Yun family."

Murong Yu smiled and said, "Mother-in-law, don't worry. Newborns need their parents' company. Once the child is older, I will definitely let the child choose for themselves."

Madam Yun beamed with joy, feeling that his approach was more prudent.

The child makes the choice, so they won't resent their parents for not wanting them.

Her son-in-law was very thoughtful. So she had nothing to say.

"If Your Majesty has something to attend to, go ahead and do it. Don't keep bothering Yue'er. The Empress Dowager won't be happy about it."

"Don't worry, Xiao Gui and I will take good care of Yueyue."

Murong Yu really didn't want to be with those ministers.

Normally, people are scheming and plotting in the imperial court. When they finally get out to relax, they still have to face those cunning and treacherous people.

Murong Yu was really disgusted, but what his mother-in-law said made sense.

"Alright, I'll be back soon."

On the first day of the banquet, rewards were given for those who had contributed.

He also exchanged a few private words with the ministers.

"My beloved ministers, I would like to offer you a toast." Perhaps in a good mood, Murong Yu was exceptionally gentle today, which made the ministers feel flattered.

Everyone quickly stood up and hurriedly returned the toast.

"Your Majesty seems so happy today, is there some good news?" Prime Minister Pei couldn't help but ask.
