"Mother, His Majesty has rewarded me with a set of five pieces of colored glaze jade."

Hearing this, the eldest lady's jaw dropped in shock. "This thing is very valuable. Oh, you really made my mother proud. My mother said that you are not bad. If you study hard in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, you will shine."

"Look, this is the reward?" She hugged Ye Bitong like a treasure.

I feel sad that although my husband is not very supportive, it is good that my daughter is.

"Mom, I know my body well. What's the point of learning so much?"

"Why is it useless?" The eldest lady glared at her and said, "Tomorrow, I will go out and find out the whereabouts of Divine Doctor Zou. Then, even if you take out all your belongings, I will still cure you."

Ye Bitong's eyes were slightly moist.

In this family, mother doesn't get much favor from father, but she protects them with her life.

-

And here.

The prince could no longer sit still.

He studied the plan in his study overnight.

Today, Lu Shiwan was so deeply in love with his father that his father kept drinking with Mo Qitian and ignored him, the prince.

In an instant, even the officials said a lot in secret.

He couldn't let things go on like this.

The next day.

Everyone knew that Ye Siyu was caned by the emperor.

The news spread all over the imperial city.

Mr. Ye felt very uncomfortable when he went to court.

Several memorials impeached him for failing to educate his daughter properly and for bringing his concubine's daughter into the palace for a banquet.

After breakfast.

Taiwei Bai Lord hurried to the harem and asked to see the queen.

The queen looked at her brother who was sitting at the bottom with a bad face and said, "Brother, you are very clear about the current situation. I said that yesterday for Jialuo's good."

"Empress, you and I are from the same mother. You said that yesterday. If Jialuo is really granted marriage, have you ever thought about going to the Grand Marshal's Mansion?" Lord Bai had a gloomy face.

"The Taiwei Mansion is not as good as it used to be. We spent so much effort to have a queen for the Bai family. Now Jin'er is the crown prince, but you can't ignore your family, can you?"

The queen sighed. How could she not know?

It was too clear, so Jialuo was allowed to marry a fifth-rank official.

"Brother, let me say this: Jialuo must marry someone of lower status. Last time, the emperor was secretly afraid of the Grand Marshal's Mansion because of Lu Yunting's incident."

"Plus, my position in the harem is not as high as before. If I choose a noble family for her now, the emperor will definitely be suspicious of me. Then my position as queen will be in jeopardy. How can I protect you in the future?"

Lord Bai raised an eyebrow.

"Empress, your position as Empress is certainly important, but you have a relationship with the Emperor. My son has been dismissed from his post, and I only have this one daughter left. If she marries someone of a lower status again, the Taiwei Mansion will probably be over."

The queen picked up the tea and took a sip.

"Brother, I know, but if you want the world to belong to the Bai family in the future, you must listen to me."

"When Jin'er becomes the emperor in the future, he will definitely protect the Taiwei Mansion. Now we must restrain our edge and hide our tracks."

Lord Bai looked at his arrogant sister and no longer had the respect he once had for her.

Thinking about how much they had worked for her position as queen, they have now turned against each other and even threatened that he, her uncle, depends on her son.

"In this case, Weichen will retire."

Lord Bai stood up, bowed to the Queen, then left angrily throwing his sleeves.

Nanny Chang stood beside the Queen and spoke in a low voice.

"My lady, why do you have to be angry with my uncle? It's normal for my uncle to love his daughter so much."

“If I anger my uncle now, I’m afraid my mother’s family will be too weak.”

The Queen raised an eyebrow.

"Madame Chang, have you ever seen me relying on my mother's family over the years?"

Aunt Bai shook her head.

"That's it. Now I am just asking Jialuo to marry someone of lower status. For the sake of my position being stable, I will not agree to his only condition."

"What can I do? I can't give up the position of Queen, can I?"

How much effort did she put in to finally stand here?

"Madame Bai, go to Concubine De and ask her if she needs any flowers."

She hasn't come for such a long time. She said she would send someone to bring her here today.

"Yes, your majesty." Nanny Bai bowed and stepped back.

Lu Shiwan woke up naturally today.

When I woke up, it was already Si time.

"Wanwan woke up."

Mo Qitian held her on his lap lovingly and ruffled her messy hair.

"Husband, I'm so sleepy. What time is it?"

"It's already the end of the Si hour."

"It's eleven o'clock?" Lu Shiwan exclaimed, then realized something and covered her mouth, "I mean, is it time for lunch?"

"Yes."

"Naughty boy, I have good news for you. After the concubine of the Ye family was caned yesterday, she returned home and fell out of favor."

"Really?" Lu Shiwan's eyes sparkled.

Mo Qitian scratched her nose and said, "Of course it's true."

"Lord Ye was impeached today when he went to court, and he returned home in disgrace."

Hearing this, Lu Shiwan remembered Ye Siyu's expression yesterday.

She clicked her tongue twice.

"She deserves it. She is so arrogant and humiliates the Lu family in public."

"Get up and have breakfast. The envoys from the neighboring countries will arrive in our court soon. Among them, we need someone to secretly search for the whereabouts of the Phoenix Girl. I have to discuss this with a few colleagues."

"Stay at home. If you are tired, take a rest. If you want to go out, take the night breeze with you."

"Okay, husband, I understand."

Lu Shiwan stretched out his two hands, grabbed Mo Qitian's neck, and kissed him on the face.

"My husband is more talkative than my mother."

Mo Qitian's loving hands wandered back and forth on her back, causing the woman to feel numb.

Lu Shiwan made a face, then jumped off him and walked to the table barefoot.

"See if you dare."

The maids stood in the distance, watched the two people fighting, and then retreated with a smile.

After breakfast, Lu Shiwan took the maids out of the house and went to the street.

"Princess, Shi Bao said that Aunt Lin was imprisoned by Aunt Hua, and Aunt Liu lived with Fang Zhengxiang in a small courtyard, living..."

"What are you doing?" Lu Shiwan asked.

“Living a life inferior to that of others.”

Lu Shiwan chuckled, "I had expected this."

"The princess is as good as a god."

Lu Shiwan lifted the curtain and looked at the people on the street.

"A person who only cares about himself will only think about himself first when encountering things. Aunt Liu lost her unborn child because of Aunt Lin, but Fang Zhengxiang didn't care and continued to protect Aunt Lin and Fang Zhirou."

"A mother is strong. This is the way of the world. Children are a woman's weapon. He murdered Aunt Liu's child, which is equivalent to taking half of her life."

"There are so many people who would kill him, why dirty your own hands?"

"All we need to do is deliver the final blow."

Ziyun nodded, "What the princess said is true. Over the years, Madam has suffered so much because of him. After giving birth to you, her health has been poor. I didn't expect that she was poisoned."

"Miss, how do you know she was poisoned?" Ziyun raised her head and looked at Lu Shiwan.

Lu Shiwan stared at Ziyun quietly, "Ziyun, if I told you that your young lady had died a long time ago, would you believe it?"
