Dressed as the mistress of the Hou family, I became the white moonlight in the Beijing circle

As soon as the voice fell, Granny Yuan's figure appeared in front of the palace door.

Everyone followed the sound, and hundreds of eyes fell on her.

The old lady wore a scarlet brocade palace robe. Although the embroidery on the robe was simple, it made her look graceful and luxurious.

Grandma Yuan walked slowly into the hall with a calm face.

"I've met the eldest princess of Gu'an, and wish her a happy life."

Grandma Yuan was led to the emperor's side by the palace people, and took a seat next to the emperor and empress. After sitting up straight, she said slowly, "Everyone, get up."

As soon as she sat down, Granny Yuan couldn't wait to look for Fang Xu, her eyes swept across the crowd, and finally settled on the middle seat.

Fang Xu looked at her with a smile and nodded slightly.

"My aunt came back so suddenly that I didn't have time to prepare anything. I hope my aunt won't be surprised."

Hearing the emperor's voice, Granny Yuan frowned impatiently, but no matter how much she disliked it, she couldn't let the emperor lose face in public, so she had to follow him and said, "It doesn't matter, I don't like extravagance and waste."

"Thank you for your understanding, aunt." The emperor raised a faint smile on his lips and asked casually, "I wonder how long aunt wants to stay when she comes back this time?"

Granny Yuan looked sideways at him, the smile on her lips deepened, and she lowered her voice, "Is the emperor trying to drive me away by saying this?"

"My aunt has misunderstood my nephew." The emperor smiled, but the smile was a little more forced, "My nephew is just caring about my aunt."

Grandma Yuan looked at him. The hypocritical, cunning, duplicitous emperor in front of her could no longer overlap with the young and ignorant child in her memory who chased her and called her aunt.

Grandma Yuan felt sad and secretly speechless.

Power and desire can really blind people's eyes and mind.

Even his aunt, who watched him grow up, can't believe it now.

"When I return to Beijing this time, I don't plan to go back to the northwest again." Granny Yuan said calmly, with a calm look on her face.

The emperor paused, then frowned, "If you don't go back, over there in the northwest..."

"My mission has been completed. I have been delayed in the northwest for so many years. I want to return to my hometown when I am old. Why not?" Granny Yuan raised her eyes and looked at him, as if waiting for an answer.

The corner of the emperor's mouth twitched and he whispered, "What my aunt said is true. You have dedicated half your life to Dayan. My nephew is worried that my aunt will have no place to live. The Princess Gu'an Mansion has been..."

"The emperor doesn't need to worry, I live in the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion." Granny Yuan spoke slowly, completely unaware of the shocking number of words she just said.

The emperor frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Yongcheng Marquis?"

Queen Zhu coughed twice and said softly, "Your Majesty, my aunt came to the palace two days ago and told me that she recognized Mrs. Yongcheng as her adopted daughter."

As soon as these words came out, Fang Xu clearly noticed that hundreds of eyes were on him, like a ray of light on his back.

Shen Ji sat diagonally across from her, twitching his lips when he saw this, secretly cursing in his heart.

What should I do if my sweetheart’s background is too deep and difficult to pursue?

It seems that meritorious service and promotion are imminent.

"Adopted daughter?" The emperor's face darkened, his face showed displeasure, and he lowered his voice, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Queen Zhu also calmed her expression and said softly, "My aunt is getting older, so I wanted to go with the old man's wish. The palace banquet was prepared in a hurry, and I was so busy these days that I forgot to tell the emperor for a moment."

<divclass="contentadv">The emperor's face was dark, but he couldn't say anything in public, so he had to bite the bullet and obey, "Forget it, since it is my aunt's wish, let me let the old man do it."

After hearing this, Queen Zhu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She met Fang Xu's eyes from a distance, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and their eyes were tacitly understanding.

"Let's have a party."

The emperor waved his hand, and the maids filed in with exquisite dinner dishes. The musicians played music, the music was lively, and the dancers danced gracefully.

"Emperor," Granny Yuan held the wine cup with a distant smile, "It's so lively today, why don't you see the Queen Mother?"

Hearing this, the emperor put down the jade chopsticks in his hands and said solemnly, "The Queen Mother is unwell and has been staying in Yongshou Palace for a long time."

Grandma Yuan understood, nodded slightly, and then pretended to be novel and asked, "Emperor, I heard that you summoned a fortune teller to join the court?"

The emperor paused with his fingertips, looked at Granny Yuan suspiciously, and whispered, "How did my aunt know about this?"

After that, he lightly raised his eyelids and his eyes fell on Xie Li, who was not far away. His eyes were deep and he asked, "Could it be that someone is making up some nonsense?"

Grandma Yuan's heart tightened, but she didn't show it on her face. She smiled to herself and said, "The people outside are talking about it. There are more fortune tellers in the capital all of a sudden. They say it is the emperor's benevolence and he is willing to reuse fortune tellers."

No matter how she explained it, the emperor's eyes were filled with suspicion.

Grandma Yuan rolled her eyes and advised earnestly, "Emperor, I just want to advise you not to trust the charlatans with unknown origins."

"These are all rumors. Auntie, you don't have to believe them." The emperor lowered his expression, showing no emotion or anger, and said in a dull voice, "Sui Aiqing's disciple, Taoist Master Xuanzhen, was personally recommended by Cui Shangshu. His origins are not unknown."

"Inherited from Xuanzhen?" Granny Yuan's eyes lit up for a moment, she waved behind her and said in a loud voice, "It just so happens that I have a rough lady here who is the last direct disciple of Xuanzhen."

Miao Xuan was pulled over by her and bowed to the emperor awkwardly, "I have seen the emperor and the queen."

"Oh, we are so destined. Why don't the emperor allow these brothers and sisters to meet each other to relieve their lovesickness?" Granny Yuan looked at the emperor with a smile, but her tone was that she could not refuse.

The emperor frowned and noticed that the chatter and laughter below him were getting smaller and smaller. Everyone's eyes were glancing towards this side, and his face fell for a moment, as if he was riding a tiger.

"Today is my aunt's wedding banquet. I'm afraid it would be inappropriate to make such a fuss." The emperor thought for a long time before saying seriously.

"What's wrong?" Granny Yuan dismissed his words with a smile, pretending to be considerate and said, "This granny has been with me for a long time, and she has some feelings for me. If I can really help her find a senior brother, I will naturally be happy."

The main hall was completely quiet, Sui Yin was sitting at the bottom, his two arms were fighting, and he had long lost his reaction.

Cui Shangshu on the side was not much better. His old face was pale, his eyes were frightened, and his body could not stop trembling.

The emperor glanced at Granny Yuan with a sinister look and tightened his lips.

Mother-in-law Yuan didn't agree with him and still looked at him with a smile.

In full view of the public, the emperor often said that he valued filial piety above all else, so it was impossible for him to be furious with his aunt.

The emperor closed his eyes slightly, veins twitching on his forehead, and simply said, "My aunt makes the decision."

As soon as these words came out, Sui Yin was completely panicked, and all the blood on his face disappeared. He subconsciously looked at Cui Shangshu beside him, his eyes filled with blood.

Killing a Thousand Swordsman, doesn't it mean that you can just pretend to be a ghost?

Why did you provoke the rightful owner!
