Xu nodded with a dark look in her eyes, "That's exactly what I suspect."
Yuchi Jiyue couldn't believe it, "It's impossible, how could the prince fall in love with a concubine's daughter?"
"Prince Qi often goes in and out of the residence of the Minister of Revenue because of his relationship with Mo Yaohua. Mo Yaohua will have the opportunity to meet him."
"If Mo Zhaohua had not been granted marriage to Prince Yu first, she would have most likely become Prince Qi's consort. Wouldn't she have been able to enter the palace with him?"
Xu analyzed it in detail. Although most of it was speculation, it was reasonable, especially the coincidence in the Princess's Mansion.
Yuchi Jiyue became more and more frightened the more she listened. "Hearing mother's analysis, it does make sense. If this is true, what should my daughter do?"
Xu thought, "Have someone keep a close eye on Mo Yaohua. While she is pregnant, you should quickly bear a child for the prince."
Yuchi Jiyue still felt that the child was an eyesore, "Can her child..."
Xu warned him repeatedly, "Don't move at all. Don't even have the thought. No matter how unhappy you are, you have to show your expectation."
Yuchi Jiyue could only compromise, "I understand. I will always care about her and show my bearing and demeanor as a mistress."
Xu smiled with relief, "Yes, that's how it should be. Even if something happens to the child, the princess won't be suspected."
Yuchi Jiyue didn't understand, "What do you mean, mother?"
Xu lowered her voice, "There are many people who don't want her to give birth to the emperor's eldest grandson."
At the same time, in the Ministry of Revenue’s Mansion.
Mo Yaohua has already returned home. Although Mo Yun also came out to greet him, it was not as grand as the day when Mo Zhaohua returned home.
The group entered the mansion and went to the main hall. Mo Yun was still sitting in the main seat, while Mo Yaohua and Old Madam Mo sat at the lower seats.
Mo Yun asked with concern, "How has Prince Qi treated you in the past few days since you entered the palace?"
Mo Yaohua became sad when she mentioned this, "With the princess here, what else can I do?"
Mo Yun advised kindly, "There is nothing we can do about it. Just be patient. Newlyweds should not compete for favors."
Madam Mo also agreed, "Yes, if you compete for favor now and offend the princess, it will be extremely bad for the child."
Mo Yaohua complained dissatisfiedly, "Grandma only thinks about the children. She never thought about their short love nights and me staying alone in an empty room?"
Madam Mo raised her voice, "What do you want? Become a special favorite like your mother? But Princess Qi is not Rong Qing."
Rong Qing has lost hope in Mo Yun and lets him do whatever he wants. Yuchi Jiuyue is deeply in love with Chu Xuanhan, so how could she allow someone else to steal her favor?
Mo Yaohua spoke coldly, "Should you be careful about your attitude? I am no longer a concubine of the Shangshu Mansion, but a concubine listed in the royal family's jade book."
She stopped even calling her grandma, which made Old Madam Mo extremely unhappy. As the legitimate concubine, Mo Zhaohua still gave her enough face when she returned home.
Status was so overwhelming that the old lady dared not speak out and had to apologize to her, "I was disrespectful, please forgive me, Madam Concubine."
Mo Yaohua tapped again, "Remember this in the future. This is also for grandma's good. Don't break the rules and cause trouble."
"Yes, Madam Concubine." Madam Mo suppressed her anger and said, "I am not feeling well. Can I go back and rest first?"
Mo Yaohua knew what she was thinking, but he deliberately asked, "Grandma, are you really unwell, or are you just unhappy?"
Madam Mo said perfunctorily, "I am old, and my health is indeed getting worse day by day. I hope that Madam Concubine will understand."
Seeing that she was unwilling to admit it, Mo Yaohua was too lazy to force her, "If that's the case, then go and have a good rest."
Upon hearing this, Nanny Liu, who was standing at the back with her head bowed, immediately walked around the chair, helped the old lady to get up, and left the main hall.
After the people walked away, Mo Yun asked unhappily, "How can you speak to your grandmother like this? She is your elder."
Mo Yaohua adjusted her hair bun and said, "With my status, what's wrong with this attitude? Or does father still treat me as a concubine's daughter?"
Mo Yun's tone softened, "I know you've suffered a lot of grievances over the years because of your status as a concubine's daughter, but your grandmother has always protected you."
Mo Yaohua revealed the old lady's thoughts, "Grandmother protects me only because of my father and brother, not because of me."
Seeing that she knew it well, Mo Yun didn't say much, "Forget it, you can do it yourself, just don't leave any excuses to annoy King Qi."
On the other side, Madam Mo returned to Yishou Hall in a rage.
She spoke before she even sat down, "You're just a concubine, yet you dare to look at me with disdain. You're so rude, you're far inferior to Princess Yu."
Madam Liu reminded in a low voice, "Old Madam, be careful with what you say. If someone with ulterior motives overhears and reports it to the Concubine, she will be even more unhappy."
Madam Mo disagreed, "So what if she's dissatisfied? She can't come back many times a year anyway, so I don't need to live under her thumb."
Nanny Liu said no more. She served in the room for a while, and when she had a chance, she went to find a maid and asked her to pass a message to Jinqiu.
Jinqiu had been serving in the main hall, and the little maid was not allowed to go in. She waited until Mo Yaohua and Lan Ruyu left before she took the opportunity to bring a message.
After Mo Yaohua sat down in Lanwuyuan, Jinqiu did not avoid Lan Ruyu and reported the news she had just received to them truthfully.
"You don't have to live under my control? Fine, I also said that I don't have to rely on her anymore, so she might as well stop living."
Mo Yaohua had a smile on her face, but the words she said were so cruel, she actually wanted to kill Madam Mo.
Lan Ruyu was calm and asked, "Have you made your decision, Madam?"
"Why keep useless things? There is no mistress in the mansion, and now there is no old lady, so isn't it my mother who is in charge?"
Mo Yaohua raised her slender hand and looked at the cardamom on her nails. "She should die sooner so that my brother can get married sooner."
Mo Shenghua will be 20 years old next year and can get married, but there is no suitable candidate at the moment. He wants to pass the imperial examination first and then get married and have children.
Once he passes the imperial examination next spring, he will have more choices. He can then use the excuse of mourning for his father to carefully select.
Lan Ruyu was afraid that she was just acting on impulse, "Do you want to reconsider?"
Mo Yaohua's eyes turned cold, "What are you still considering? From the moment she got close to Mo Zhaohua, I couldn't tolerate her anymore!"
Lan Ruyu still had a calm expression, "Can Madam Liu be trusted?"
Mo Yaohua sneered, "In the future, mother and brother will be in charge of this mansion. She has already expressed her loyalty. If she really has other intentions, just kill her."
Lan Ruyu got up and went to the bedroom to get a small paper bag. "This poison is colorless and tasteless. It will make her weaker and weaker until she dies."
Mo Yaohua glanced at Jinqiu and said, "You should do this yourself."
"Yes, your majesty." Jinqiu responded respectfully and stepped forward to take the poison.
When Matron Liu received the packet of poison, her hands trembled slightly and she felt extremely frightened.
She could never have imagined that the harmless Mo Yaohua would actually try to kill the old lady.
This cruel method made her hesitate whether to tell Mo Zhaohua about this. What would happen if Mo Yaohua found out?
She was afraid of death, and even more afraid of dying without knowing why!
