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

Chapter 920

"Granny Su, I know that the Empress Dowager is seriously ill. I came to the palace specifically to visit her. Is she still angry with me?"

When Granny Su looked up at the woman in front of her, she was startled.

Murong Yun was actually wearing a dragon robe. Her face was contorted with resentment. Her dragon robe was particularly eye-catching in the dark night. Her beautiful eyes were wide open, staring intently at Su Mama, who was blocking her way at the entrance of Funing Palace. The anger in her eyes seemed to want to burn her to ashes.

“Princess, you…” Granny Su was terrified, but quickly calmed down.

"Granny Su, how dare you! How dare you stop this princess!" Murong Yun's voice became sharp with anger, echoing between the palace walls.

Her hands were clenched into fists, her nails digging deep into her palms, but she felt no pain. All she wanted to do was rush into Fu Ning Palace, capture Madam Yun, and tear her to pieces.

Although Su Mama kept her head down, she did not move an inch. "Your Highness, the Empress Dowager is resting and has instructed that no one should disturb her."

That calm tone, however, was nothing short of adding fuel to the fire for the princess.

Murong Yun gritted her teeth, her hatred growing wildly like weeds. She felt that this old servant was nothing more than a loyal dog of the Empress Dowager, and that his past respect for her was now all insincere.

"Hmph! I must see the Empress Dowager today. If you dare to obstruct me again, don't blame me for being ruthless!" Murong Yun shouted angrily, taking a step forward to force her way in.

Upon seeing this, Granny Su quickly knelt down, but still kept her arms open.

This act of kneeling and blocking completely enraged Murong Yun. She suddenly flicked her sleeve, kicking over a flowerpot next to her. The sound of the flowerpot shattering was particularly jarring in the quiet palace gate, just like her broken and blackened heart, filled with hatred and almost to the point of madness.

"Take her down for me."

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of soldiers appeared.

Granny Su panicked instantly and rushed inside, crying out, "Empress Dowager, something terrible has happened..."

Inside the Funing Palace, Empress Dowager Pei lay on her sickbed, her face sallow and her eyes sunken.

The once magnificent brocade quilt now appeared dull and lifeless, as if it had lost its vibrant luster. The room was filled with a strong medicinal smell, its bitter aroma permeating every inch of space.

Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps broke the silence.

Granny Su stumbled into the palace and knelt down in front of the bed with a thud. Her voice trembled as she cried out, "Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! The Eldest Princess... the Eldest Princess has rebelled! She has led a large army to force her way to the palace, and the guards at the palace gates are about to be overwhelmed!"

The guards of Funing Palace were all at the entrance.

The Empress Dowager's previously cloudy and weak eyes widened instantly, a hint of panic and disbelief flashing in them.

She tried to prop herself up, but could only lift her head slightly, her chapped lips trembling slightly: "What did you say? You said Yun'er... cough cough cough..."

Before he could finish speaking, a violent cough rose in his throat, and his whole body heaved and gasped for breath.

She was filled with mixed emotions, anger, disappointment, and heartache.

"Impossible. You're lying to me, aren't you? The Emperor isn't in the capital right now, how could she possibly..."

The daughter I once cherished would do such a rebellious thing.

"Quickly... let Lady Yun take the prince away."

Empress Dowager Pei was panting.

At this moment, all I want is to save my child.
