In the main hall.

Nanny Gu sat on one side, drinking tea leisurely.

There were two palace maids standing behind her, looking around the Prince of Yan's Mansion from time to time, which did not look like a prince's palace at all.

The furnishings in the hall were simple and crude, and there was nothing of value to be seen. However, there was an ink painting hung above the upper part. The landscape in the painting seemed to be flowing down like a waterfall, majestic and grand.

Just one glance can make people feel the vitality of life.

Hearing the footsteps coming outside, Nanny Gu stood up immediately.

As soon as he stepped into the main hall, the three of them stretched their necks to look behind him. Seeing that there was no one else behind him, their hearts sank a little, but they quickly suppressed their doubts, knelt down and greeted him.

"This servant pays homage to His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan. Long live His Royal Highness."

He Qingchen continued to walk forward with an expressionless face and sat in the seat at the top, looking at the three people who had turned around and still maintained a saluting posture.

Nanny Gu looked calm and bent over without being servile or arrogant.

I can't tell what I'm thinking.

However, the two palace maids behind her showed some panic and anxiety on their faces when they saw that He Qingchen had not called out for a long time.

A moment.

He Qingchen said calmly: "Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"What do you want from me?" He Qingchen poured himself a cup of tea and drank it slowly. He looked at Nanny Gu through the rim of the cup, and his words were cold and polite.

Nanny Gu paused, feeling a little strange.

"Your Highness, the Queen has asked me to come here and summon the Princess to the palace for a chat." Of course, these were polite words spoken by Nanny Gu herself.

The Queen's words were not so nice.

It has been some time since He Qingchen got married.

Normally, when a member of the royal family gets married, they should go to the palace to pay respects to the emperor and empress on the second day of the wedding to pay their respects and express their gratitude.

Due to the special circumstances of He Qingchen's wedding, Emperor Zhao Yuan exempted the couple from the ceremony of paying respects, but this was not a reason for them not to come for a long time.

He Qingchen woke up on the second day of his wedding.

He entered the palace on the third day of his wedding. The empress thought that he was bringing his new bride to the palace to pay a visit, and she had already thought about how to act like the empress and mother-in-law. However, unexpectedly, he did not come at all.

She waited for a long time but saw no one.

Instead, he was ridiculed openly and secretly by that group of uninvited bitches for half a day, and what he got was the news that he had already left the palace.

That day, she was so angry that she almost smashed everything in her bedroom.

There is nothing we can do.

She could only wait and see.

This wait lasted for several more days.

Not only did no one come, but the entire city of Songjing was in an uproar, with everyone talking about the news that Lin's legitimate daughter had escaped from her marriage and her concubine's daughter had married in her place.

On the same day, Minister Lin was demoted and Marquis Dingyuan was placed under house arrest.

What does this mean?

Explain that the thing is true.

This also means that He Qingchen entered the palace that day just for this matter.

The Lin and Qi families made such a big fuss that they trampled on the royal family and her face. In the end, His Majesty only demoted them and put them under house arrest. This made the Queen simply unable to tolerate it.

Especially Concubine Hui in the palace has become more and more proud in recent days.

He would often use the excuse of paying his respects to the empress to act in a sarcastic and strange way and stir up all kinds of trouble, making the empress so angry that she couldn't eat or sleep.

Seeing so many days have passed.

She became increasingly irritated.

She also heard from He Chengjue that He Qingchen seemed very satisfied with this country girl who was married off in place of him, so she could wait no longer and immediately arranged for someone to go out of the palace to summon Shen Gui.

It was she who took the initiative to invite Nanny Gu to come.

It was just a message, and since Nanny Gu wanted to pass it on, the Queen didn't stop her.

After listening to what Madam Gu said, He Qingchen first glanced at the sky outside, and then said slowly: "Madam, you have worked hard. Please go back and tell my mother that the princess accompanied me out today and is tired. She is taking a nap now.

It was getting late, and after going back and forth, I was afraid we wouldn't be able to say much.

Tomorrow morning, I will personally bring the princess to the palace to formally pay my respects to my father, the emperor, and my mother. Please be patient and wait another night."

After saying that, he left.

There was no room for them to speak.

Nanny Gu looked at his back, listening to his words of not-so-obvious protection, and seemed to be thinking about something.

"Mammy, what are you thinking about?" A palace maid asked tentatively when she saw Mammy Gu was silent.

Nanny Gu came back to her senses and said, "Nothing. Let's go back to the palace."

The other person frowned and asked quickly, "Mammy, are we really going back like this?"

The Queen Mother has been in a bad mood these days. She is like a bomb all day long that will explode at the slightest touch. After hearing so many rumors in the capital, they have more or less guessed the reason.

The Queen Mother summoned them personally, but the Princess of Yan claimed that she was tired and did not even show her face. Only the Prince of Yan came out and sent them away.

How are they going to explain this to the Queen when they return?

Nanny Gu glanced at them coldly and asked, "What else?"

They were both stunned and felt a little at a loss.

"Let's go back to the palace."

Nanny Gu didn't care what they thought.

She turned around and slowly walked out of Prince Yan's Mansion accompanied by Wang Huan, with two palace maids following behind her.

One of them opened his mouth to speak several times, but was interrupted by the other.

In the carriage.

Nanny Gu sat in the center of the carriage with her eyes closed.

The palace maids sat on both sides.

When the carriage left the palace, the man couldn't help but ask, "Mammy, the queen asked us to come and invite the princess to the palace, but now she hasn't invited her back. What should we do?"

The other person was also feeling a little nervous, and at this moment, he was staring at Nanny Gu.

half an hour.

Nanny Gu opened her eyes and said indifferently, "Whatever happens, happens."

"But……"

Madam Gu glanced at her and said slowly, "We are just messengers, do you understand?"

The palace maid didn't react for a moment.

But the other one immediately understood what Nanny Gu meant.

According to Nanny Gu, they were just messengers. Now that the message had been delivered, it was not up to them to decide whether or not the message was listened to, how it was listened to, or what was done.

When I return to the palace, the worst that can happen is a scolding, which is nothing.

If Prince Yan refuses to release the person and Princess Yan doesn't show up, how can they still kidnap the person and bring him back to the palace?

As Madam Gu said this, she swept her eyes over the two of them. When she was sure that someone could understand, she stopped talking, closed her eyes again, and said calmly, "Stop when we pass by Qianweizhai in a while."
