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

Chapter 814

Yun Xiyue didn't say much, after all, the truth hadn't come out yet. "Sister-in-law, you should rest first."

"Now that you're back, stay at home for a few days!"

"I'm so bored during my postpartum period. Just keep me company."

At this moment, Yun Xiaohan came in and said, "Ling'er, A-Yue is now the Empress and has many things to do."

"I will stay with you."

Xiao Ling'er's cheeks flushed.

"Ah."

Yun Xiaohan escorted her back to the palace, saying, "A-Yue, don't overthink it. Now that you have a child, focus on raising the prince and securing your position as empress. We've got you covered, so there's really nothing to worry about."

"Well, thank you, brother."

"By the way, have you met Prince Han?"

Yun Xiaohan nodded. He was probably the man's son, and the thought of him only made him more upset. He didn't want to investigate the truth any further.

"Empress Yun".

At this moment, they encountered Cui Yan at the palace gate.

Others were not allowed to leave the palace because of their high status; if they were to escape and be assassinated, the Great Xia Dynasty could not bear the consequences.

So it felt like I was under house arrest.

They either had to leave on their own, or they were not allowed to leave the palace.

They didn't want to leave, so they had no choice but to stay obediently in the palace.

But Cui Yan and his group are allowed to go out occasionally.

"Young Master Cui, are you going to the palace to see the Emperor?"

Cui Yan's gaze fell on the child in her arms, Xiao Bao, the child he had wanted to take away back then.

Unfortunately, it ultimately failed.

"Yes, the Emperor asked me to make a blessing for the three princes, but he didn't tell me their birth dates and times."

The child's birth date and time were kept secret.

"Does the 'Peace and Prosperity Fortune' require your birth date and time?"

Cui Yan said, "Of course."

“Our Cui family’s Ping An Fu requires you to provide your birth date and time.”

Yun Xiyue also disagreed, saying, "Then we don't need the Peace Blessing."

I don't know why Murong Yu asked him for a blessing of peace.

Didn't he know that Cui Yan was after the child?

He left with a single sentence and then took the child and left.

Cui Yan stared at her voice thoughtfully.

"Young master, we don't have much time left."

"Then why must the prince be the youngest?"

Cui Yan smiled mysteriously and said, "Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed."

......

"Why did you ask Cui Yan for a blessing of peace?" Yun Xiyue came directly to the imperial study to question him.

Murong Yu quickly put down the memorial in his hand, "A-Yue, don't get agitated."

"Listen to me first. Cui Yan is an extremely cautious person. I investigated him, but I have no idea why he would take the child away."

"And he hasn't given up yet."

"So I took the initiative and tested him."

Yun Xiyue felt a surge of anxiety upon hearing this. "He's going to kidnap Xiaobao too?"

"Ah."

"What secrets might be hidden in our three babies?"

“The Cui family has always been a mysterious and eccentric person.”

Murong Yu pulled him to sit down, "I suspect that Cui Yan is the one helping Shen Yue behind the scenes."

"Then hurry up and get rid of them."

Yun Xiyue began to feel uneasy, fearing that they might harm the child.

"And Shen Yue had a nosebleed today. I'm wondering if he's been poisoned by a Gu poison?"

Murong Yu said, "Nan Yin secretly examined him and said that he was afflicted with a love curse, which reduced his lifespan by several decades because he had been killed by multiple curses."

It was because they knew Shen Yue was nearing the end.
