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

Chapter 968

"Granny, the baby came out feet first, I'm afraid it won't survive..." the midwife said, her voice trembling with fear.

"Then let's save the mother!" Granny Song hesitated for a moment before making the difficult choice.

If we don't make a choice now, it might result in the deaths of both mother and child.

Grandpa Fu returned in a rage.

"What's wrong?" asked Granny Chen.

Eunuch Fu glanced at her and said angrily, "The Liang Prince's Mansion has laid an ambush. They deliberately caused the Liang Princess to give birth prematurely in order to lure the Empress out of the palace."

At this point, Granny Chen understood.

Looking back at Yun Xiyue, she said, "Your Majesty, it's fortunate you didn't leave the palace."

Yun Xiyue sat in a chair, looking at the contents of the memorial, "Have they been captured?"

"No, they ran away. They probably knew you hadn't left the palace, so they retreated as soon as they saw us," said Eunuch Fu.

"Your Majesty, the Princess Consort of Liang has given birth to some stillborn babies."

That means the adults were saved.

We need to inform the King of Liang about this.

Yun Xiyue didn't care. There were people from Murong Yan in the Liang Prince's mansion, and they would tell the Liang Prince.

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager requests your presence."

Yun Xiyue got up, and Caiwei draped a cloak over her shoulders to protect her from the wind.

They boarded a sedan chair and arrived at Funing Palace.

The snow stopped during the night.

But the weather is still very cold.

"Your Highness, please slow down." Caiwei carefully helped her up.

"Your Majesty, the ground is a bit slippery."

Yun Xiyue said, "Okay, then go slower."

The young eunuchs quickly went to the front to clean up.

The stove in the Empress Dowager's bedroom was burning brightly.

It warmed up instantly.

"Meet the Queen Mother."

The Empress Dowager glanced at her and was somewhat dazed. Yun Xiyue possessed an air of nobility that was impossible to ignore.

She wore an empress's court crown, adorned with a golden phoenix and dazzling pearls, signifying her noble status.

He wore a bright yellow court robe with gold trim and sable fur decoration, embroidered with nine golden dragons.

This is the empress's court robe specially made for her by Murong Yu.

From the very beginning, Murong Yu wanted Yun Xiyue to oversee the country from the rear.

This noble air is nurtured by the dragon's aura.

She frequently visits the Imperial Study. Now that she holds a high position and is nourished by power, she is no longer the Empress who was cautious and hesitant when she first entered the palace.

"Sit down!" The Empress Dowager sighed inwardly. The person she hated most had become the person she most wanted to be.

In the past, she was proud and ambitious.

She dreamed of becoming a woman who could stand on equal footing with the emperor.

She thought that simply seizing power was enough, but she didn't realize that a couple needs to stay together, support each other, and move forward hand in hand.

"I heard Yu'er is coming back?"

Yun Xiyue, holding a hot water bottle, sat on a chair to the side and nodded. "News has come that the Emperor is on his way back to the capital and should be able to return on New Year's Eve."
