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

Chapter 979

The three little ones seemed to have been tamed and spoke in unison.

Today she was wearing a red satin jacket, a cream-colored little hat, and little leather boots, her eyes sparkling like grapes after being washed.

Her small mouth was rosy, and her face was delicate and fair, like a porcelain doll.

It's hard to like them.

The Empress Dowager was amused and quickly ordered someone to bring her a purse and a longevity necklace.

Put them on all the little ones.

They were playing with their purses.

If they can't sit still, let them play in the lobby.

If the Empress Dowager were raising the children, she certainly wouldn't let them do that. They would have to sit properly and establish rules from a young age.

But Madam Yun got involved, and eventually the child, by his very nature, couldn't sit still.

"Your Majesty, have you seen the little princess?" The Empress Dowager gestured for Consort De to bring the child over.

She glanced at him and then asked Murong Yu to hug her.

Murong Yu smiled and said, "Come, let me see who I look like."

Qi Yumin immediately felt uneasy and dared not let him hug her.

"What's wrong? You won't let me see?" Murong Yu looked at her, his gaze slightly darkening.

Qi Yumin was so frightened that she trembled.

“Your Majesty, the little princess is shy. She will definitely cry when she meets Your Majesty for the first time. Why don’t we wait until she is a little older before bringing her to meet her father?”

Murong Yu smiled and asked, "Who does the Empress Dowager think he resembles?"

The Empress Dowager only glanced at it briefly, without looking closely. Who would have known?

Consort De is now timid and cowering, not at all like a consort.

She doesn't like any of them.

That child, like her, was not likable.

The Empress Dowager disliked it, saying, "She still hasn't fully grown up."

"Da Bao, Er Bao, Xiao Bao, come here." Murong Yu beckoned to his sons, and the three little ones immediately ran to his side excitedly, calling out in their childish voices, "Father Emperor."

She smiles, revealing two small white teeth.

"Empress Dowager, look at them, which princes do they resemble?"

Murong Yu didn't believe it; if it were his child, it would definitely resemble her.

Even if things don't go well, we'll be able to tell after A-Yue gives birth to a girl in her second pregnancy, once she's been a hundred days old.

It can even be done from birth. Especially for the older generation, who have seen what he looked like as a child.

The Empress Dowager looked at her three little grandsons and said, "They must look like the Emperor! Look at their eyebrows and eyes, their upturned noses, just like you when you were little."

"I remember when you were this age, you were just as lively and adorable. When you first came to Funing Palace, you were just this little bit old, and you called me 'Mother' in that same childish voice."

Very nice.

She met Murong Yu when he was a little over two years old.

Therefore, the memory is very vivid.

Murong Yu fed his son some snacks and said with a smile, "Well, then that means the little princess will probably resemble me when she grows up."

"Daughters tend to resemble their fathers more, so it's certain that your elder sister resembles your father more. Your elder sister, she..."

As she spoke, the Empress Dowager mentioned the Eldest Princess.

Qi Yumin breathed a sigh of relief and quickly retreated with the child in her arms.

The Empress Dowager started crying as she spoke.

"Your Majesty, I know your elder sister has committed a grave mistake, but she has gone mad. Can you allow her to come out?"

Murong Yu gestured for someone to take the child away first.

He didn't want to get angry in front of the children.

So as not to frighten them and damage his image as a loving father.

“Ah Yue told me and pleaded for her.”

“Given her circumstances, she can be spared death. However, she will no longer be a princess of the Great Xia Dynasty, and she will not even be allowed to be a member of the Murong family.”

They will strip away not only their identity but also their surname.

It means being demoted to a commoner.

The Empress Dowager was heartbroken. "She's your elder sister! Can the Emperor really be so heartless? She's already gone mad. You can send her out of the capital, but if you strip her of her princess title, demote her to a commoner, and forfeit her fiefdom, how will she live?"

Murong Yu's expression was cold. "Because of her, Grand Tutor Zhou died tragically, General Xiao fell seriously ill, and even A-Yue has to suffer. The Empress Dowager only sees her suffering, but doesn't see the suffering of others?"

"If she is pardoned, how will the Empress Dowager explain this to the Zhou family?"

The Zhou family and the Empress Dowager have always had a good relationship, especially since Old Madam Zhou was her close friend.
