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

Chapter 852

"Your Majesty the Empress." Qi Yumin was so frightened that her legs trembled and she knelt down with a thud.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. I just missed my brother so much that I ran away from the palace. I won't do it again. Please forgive me this once."

Yun Xiyue helped her up. "If you want to leave the palace, you can tell us, or we can ask Young Master Qi to come and visit you."

"Your Highness, you scared me to death!" said Granny Su.

Qi Yumin gave a wry smile, "I won't run around like that anymore, I'm sorry..."

Granny Su felt that she hadn't smiled since she got pregnant. Others who were pregnant with the emperor's child were overjoyed, but she was always frowning.

You'd think she didn't want to have the Emperor's child at all!

If you were unwilling, then why did you steal Pei Fang's chance to serve you in bed?

"Consort De is back. Let's have the imperial physician speak to her first!" Yun Xiyue said.

Granny Su needs to inform the Empress Dowager to avoid worrying her.

This time, the guards around Yongning Palace have been strengthened.

When the Empress Dowager learned that the person had returned, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Is the child alright?"

"No. It's just that this servant feels that Consort De seems unwilling to conceive the Emperor's child," said Granny Su.

The Empress Dowager scoffed, "If the Emperor doesn't favor them, who wouldn't worry about whether their child will be favored after birth?"

Granny Su suddenly realized.

"Let Madam Qi go to the palace to keep her company! If only Fangfang were pregnant with this child. But alas..."

The Empress Dowager felt distressed, "I wonder how Fangfang is doing now."

"I heard that the envoy from Dongling Kingdom has already left Daxia. I suppose it won't be long before the county princess arrives at the Cui family."

The Empress Dowager thought that her niece was only a county princess, while a palace maid by Yun Xiyue's side could be made a princess and married to the regent of the Great Wei.

I felt extremely uncomfortable.

"Hmph, the Emperor is so biased!"

Granny Su was startled. The Empress Dowager had been too unpredictable lately, even irritable. She really wanted to go back to Yongning Palace.

"Tell Yun Xiyue that I want to give that princess's mansion to the little princess."

"Let her choose another mansion for that wretched girl."

......

Granny Su came to Jiaofang Palace.

Yun Xiyue smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's too late to change residences now. The Regent Prince Qingyun has already moved into the Princess's Residence. The wedding is in a few days. If the Empress Dowager insists that they give up their residences, then they should go and say so themselves. I dare not risk offending her."

Upon hearing this, Granny Su dared not say anything more and immediately went to report to the Empress Dowager.

"She did it on purpose."

"Humph!"

The Empress Dowager was furious and immediately ordered the Ministry of Rites to select a princess's mansion for the eldest princess's daughter.

The Ministry of Rites felt this was against the rules and dared not agree easily, so they reported it to the Emperor.

Murong Yu threw the memorial at his feet. "Do you need me to handle this kind of thing? If it's against the rules, then we'll deal with it according to the rules. No matter who it is, if it's against the rules, it's not allowed."

"Who says a princess should be given a princess's mansion? The current princess mansions aren't luxurious enough. She's a princess, yet she lives in a place the size of two princess mansions."

The eldest princess was extravagant and spent money like water.

Since the late emperor only had one daughter, it didn't matter if he doted on her.

But now the late emperor is no longer in charge.

What was the Empress Dowager's psychology behind doing this?

By disrupting the peace between the Great Wei and the Great Xia, Qingmei, a mere maid, was deemed unworthy of Mo Ye. He sought to elevate her status to silence the Great Wei.

But she's the one who deliberately sabotages him!

Murong Yu's eyes flashed with anger, which frightened the Minister of Rites so much that he immediately picked up the memorial and then had someone find a way to refuse the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager naturally knew it was the Emperor's intention.
