The most difficult female boss in history

Chapter 856 The Origin of the Rumor

After the little eunuch went out, Concubine Lu sat on the first-class couch for a long time, her mind was still in chaos and she had no clue.

What does the emperor mean? He wants to appease Han Yunjun and Xiao Huaien first, and then find a way to withdraw from the marriage; or did they fall into the trap of Xiao's family again, and Xiao Mingzhu's birth time was not the right time at all?
She didn't believe that the emperor would let this matter go easily.

As a parent, the life of the child is the most important thing, and there are no exceptions for the kings and generals.

The emperor must prefer to believe in what he has, rather than believe in what he has not.

This marriage will definitely be returned!

However, everyone knows Han Yunjun's deep affection for Xiao Mingzhu. After retiring from the marriage, will Han Yunjun's old illness relapse, or become disheartened and depressed?
Will the emperor anger everyone related to this rumor?

Will it be found on her head?

The crystal bead curtain collided with each other and made a soft noise. Concubine Lu glared at her angrily, and was about to reprimand her when she saw Xiang Ye's joyful face, and she entered the door and said, "Your Majesty, someone from the Taiyang Hall just passed a message, saying yes The emperor will come over for dinner in a while."

Concubine Lu jumped up like a frightened bird, her voice trembling: "What, the emperor is coming?"

Since she was demoted a few years ago, the emperor has never stepped into her Yuxiu Palace, nor summoned her again.Even if she found a gap and deliberately had a chance encounter with the emperor, the emperor turned a blind eye to her eager eyes.

Why, the emperor wants to come here today?

Concubine Lu tightly grasped Xiang Ye's arm, tremblingly asked: "Tell me, does the Emperor know...?"

"Niang Niang..." Xiang Ye was so frightened that she put out her hand to cover Concubine Lu's mouth, and looked around, seeing that there was no outsider in the room, so she let go and helped Concubine Lu sit down on the couch, and knelt down in front of her , persuaded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, don't scare yourself, the rumors have nothing to do with you..."

Only then did Concubine Lu calm down, and nodded slowly: "Yes, what does it have to do with me."

It was the old woman from the Duke's Mansion who said that there was a fake Xiao Mingzhu's birth date; it was the Xu family who spread the word.She also reprimanded Xu Pianran, who wanted to use this news to please her, and warned Xu's family not to talk nonsense until the matter had no facts.

Of course, when she was reprimanding Xu Pianran accidentally, she was overheard by the eyeliner planted in her palace.

Presumably the emperor found out about this, and he wouldn't believe that she did something wrong in this matter.

It's just that she was timid and cautious, and didn't dare to report the truth to the emperor before the affair was confirmed, and she didn't intend to deceive.

Besides, didn't the emperor punish those people who used this incident to weave the rumors about Xiao Mingzhu Kefu?

The more Concubine Lu thought about it, the more confident she became: "Speaking of it, if King Xiaoyao was prevented from being restrained by Xiao Mingzhu because of this matter, then this Palace is still doing a great job."

Yes, it must be like this, otherwise, why would the emperor come to see her suddenly?
Seeing the smile on Concubine Lu's face getting wider and wider, Xiang Ye moved her lips and swallowed the reminder.

She knew that if she reminded her, Concubine Lu might not believe it, even if what she said became the truth, Concubine Lu would only blame herself for reminding too late, or for not forcibly stopping it.

She is also very tired to meet such a master who is not very smart and always thinks about making troubles. If she is careless, she may suffer the same fate as those companions who were purged two years ago.

She might as well wait for the opportunity and look for an opportunity to stay away from this unclear master.

Concubine Lu calmed down, and hurriedly sent someone to tell the small kitchen to prepare a few dishes that the emperor loves to eat, and asked Xiang Ye to dress her up carefully, preparing to tell the emperor about her grievances and complaints in the past two years. Acacia.

...^0^...

On the other side, Xiao Mingzhu and his party returned to the Duke's Mansion.

Because Han Yunjun came back with them, Xiao Mingzhu didn't go back directly to the backyard, but followed to arrange a yard for Han Yunjun.

As soon as they walked to the main hall of the front yard, they heard "Is Wynn back?" Then, they heard a sad "My son..."

Xiao Mingzhu paused, stood at the Banyue Gate, and didn't go any further.

Seeing Mrs. Xu rushing out from the side room in a hurry, grabbing her father's arm, she began to cry and asked, "Wynn, is there anything wrong with you? Has the emperor made things difficult for you?" While crying, the old lady's eyes lit up. He looked up and down at his father, and said several words "Amitabha, Bodhisattva bless".

Those who didn't know really thought that her father had just left the battlefield and escaped death.

Xiao Huai'en was expressionless, and lightly broke away from Mrs. Xu's hand, and looked behind her eyes like a mother who was extremely disturbed; "Help the old lady back to the yard."

Mrs. Xu didn't seem to notice Xiao Huaien's indifference, she pushed away the mother Ru who came forward to help her, and said, "Wynn, follow me, I have something important to tell you..."

"Let's talk about it later. I still have important things to do." At this moment, Xiao Huai'en had no intention of dealing with her at all.

It's not just a few words to talk about the past.

She didn't mean it, she didn't want to, she really didn't expect...

From childhood to adulthood, whenever his mother made a mistake in judgment or acted wrong, she would tell him this repeatedly, and if he heard too much, he would recite it.

Mrs. Xu said angrily: "This matter is very important, it is related to the life and death of the Duke's Mansion..."

A few days ago, Xu's mansion sent a letter saying that her eldest brother was seriously ill and unconscious. She ignored Wynn's warning not to let her go back to Xu's mansion alone, so she slapped Aunt Ding who came to block the way, and insisted on returning to Xu's house government.

When she went back, her eldest brother just woke up, and her siblings hugged their heads and cried for a while. Later, she didn't know what happened. She chatted with her sister-in-law, and they talked about the matter of Lin's childbirth.The sister-in-law suddenly asked about the time of birth of sister Ming. She forgot what Wynn had told her, and told her the real time of birth.

The day before yesterday, the emperor sent Eunuch Cheng to come to the door in person to ask her the real time of birth of Sister Ming, and it was only then that she realized that her casual remark might have caused trouble.

After Eunuch Cheng left, Aunt Ding rushed over to ask why Eunuch Cheng came here.She cared about it and didn't want to tell the truth.It was still Ru Niang who understood her, and chased Aunt Ding to the yard to ask Aunt Ding if there would be any trouble if Sister Ming's birth time was wrong.

Through the crack of the window, she saw Aunt Ding's face turned pale instantly after hearing Ru Niang's words.Afterwards, every word Aunt Ding said stuck in her brain, and it hurt terribly.

Aunt Ding said that if the timing of sister Ming and King Xiaoyao coincided, the emperor might turn a blind eye to let this matter pass by because of King Xiaoyao's deep affection for sister Ming and Wynn's achievements; If the timings of the two are mutually exclusive, the emperor must be furious. He believes that his family will not report Xiao Mingzhu's real time of birth to the palace immediately after knowing that the emperor intends to propose marriage for sister Ming, so that the emperor can tell Xiao Mingzhu, who is incompatible with each other. If it was promised to King Xiaoyao, it was suspected of intentionally harming King Xiaoyao.The destruction of this marriage is minor, and it is very likely that the Duke's Mansion will be convicted of deceiving the emperor.
