Ran Yang said to He Yan a little embarrassedly, "Are you done? Then go outside and prepare the rest."

He Yan nodded in agreement, and in addition to the two of them, he brought two more people to help carry the things.

Jiang Qingyu was very quiet. After Ran Yang and the others left, she kept supporting her chin with her hand.

She was thinking about how to get the emperor to agree to let her go to Jiangnan tomorrow. The jade pendant had been lost for so long, and she didn't know how long it would take to find it.

After thinking for a long time, she still couldn't come up with a good idea, so she simply gave up thinking about it. At worst, she would learn from Xiao Jingyu and act first and report later.

The next day, Jiang Qingyu got up early, packed everything, and took a carriage to the gate of the palace. When she just walked to the Yangxin Palace, the emperor had just finished his morning court session.

When the emperor saw Jiang Qingyu standing at the entrance of the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, he thought she had gotten into trouble again. He had also heard that she had visited several young ladies in one day in the past few days.

I just thought she was bored and had nothing to do, so she looked for someone to chat with.

Thinking of this, the emperor frowned and asked behind Jiang Qingyu.

"Why are you here so early? Have you gotten into trouble again after just a few days of peace?"

Jiang Qingyu was so absorbed in her thoughts that she did not hear the emperor's approaching footsteps. She was startled by the emperor's voice that suddenly came from behind her.

After realizing what was happening, he quickly saluted the emperor.

"My daughter-in-law has met the emperor. May the emperor be blessed."

"Well, get up, go in and tell me what you are here for today."

The emperor took a step forward, walked ahead of Jiang Qingyu, and entered the Yangxin Palace. After the emperor sat down, Jiang Qingyu began to answer the emperor's questions.

"Father, I heard that my grandmother is ill. I was ignorant and never visited her before. I feel very guilty.

The most important thing is that now that Yu'er has become the daughter-in-law of the royal family, her every word and action represents the royal family. If people knew that Yu'er was disrespectful to her elders, it would bring discredit to the royal family."

Jiang Qingyu was afraid that the emperor would not agree, so she said everything she wanted to say in one breath, and waited anxiously for the emperor's answer.

"Well, you are right. Your mother died young, so you should show some filial piety to her. This will also show that our royal family values ​​filial piety. I agree to this.

Also, when do you plan to go and how long will you be there? "

She was very happy when she heard that the emperor also agreed with her idea.

"Your Majesty, I plan to go there in the next two days, mainly because I am worried that the old man is not in good health and cannot hold on.

As for how long she will be gone, my daughter-in-law wants to wait until her grandmother can get out of bed and walk around before coming back, and she also wants to take this opportunity to make up for her past regrets.”

The emperor tapped the table and thought for a while, then said to Jiang Qingyu.

"Sure, come back as soon as possible. It's not right for the royal daughter-in-law to be out alone. If Yu'er goes back to the capital during this time, you have to come back too."

Jiang Qingyu knew how much Xiao Jingyu hated her and would definitely not come back for a while.

"Father, your daughter-in-law knows about this. Thank you for your kindness."

"How are the gifts prepared? We must not lose face for the royal family."

"Everything is almost ready. Father, you don't have to worry about this. No matter where you are, your daughter-in-law should always remember that she is a member of the royal family."

"Well, that's great. I'll have someone send some gifts over later and you can take them to your grandmother for me."

"Got it, Father. If there are no other daughters-in-law, I will withdraw and not disturb you from doing your business."

"Well, let's go down."

Jiang Qingyu bowed and saluted, "My daughter-in-law, take your leave."

After coming out of the Yangxin Palace, Jiang Qingyu was very happy. Things were much easier than she had imagined. She did not expect the emperor to agree so readily. She was ready for a protracted battle.

In fact, the emperor was also afraid of Jiang Qingyu's ability to cause trouble, so letting him go for a few months would give him some peace and quiet.

Jiang Qingyu sat in the carriage and kept instructing Ran Yang on what to do next.

Suddenly she remembered that she was going to Jiangnan, and she seemed to have not told her stepfather yet, so she told the coachman to change the route to the Duke's Mansion.

When passing by a purple clay teapot shop, Jiang Qingyu remembered that her father seemed to like drinking tea very much, so she got out of the car and picked out the most expensive purple clay teapot in the store for him.

When she arrived at the Duke's Mansion, her father had just finished his meal.

They had to go to court very early, usually arriving at the palace gate at the end of the Chou hour or the beginning of the Yin hour, waiting for the door to open, so they had to wait until after court to eat breakfast.

Seeing Jiang Qingyu coming again, Liu Siyi wanted to move forward, but this time she was pulled away by Jiang Qingchen. She really didn't want to experience the feeling of being a transparent person every time Jiang Qingyu came back.

Where there is comparison there is a gap. She is the most talented girl in Beijing, but in her father's heart she is not as good as Jiang Qingyu. How can she not be jealous?

When Father Jiang saw Jiang Qingyu coming, he was so happy that he asked Jiang Qingyu about her well-being. When Jiang Qingyu took out the purple clay teapot, he was almost moved to tears.

"Yu'er, why did you come to see Dad so early? And you brought Dad a gift."

While he was talking, his eyes and hands never left the pot.

No matter how poor a Duke is, he can afford a purple clay teapot, but Liu Siyi is quite strict with him.

Any expense over twenty taels of silver had to be told to her, otherwise she would make a scene.

Father Jiang has come through all these years for the sake of family harmony.

In fact, he had set his eyes on the purple clay teapot that Jiang Qingyu bought for him a long time ago, but it was too expensive, nearly two thousand taels of silver.

He didn't dare tell Liu Siyi because he knew Liu Siyi would not agree and he would get a PUA.

Jiang Qingyu called out "Dad Jiang" and told him her plan.

"Dad, I just came back from the palace and I have something to tell you.

I want to go to my grandparents' home in Jiangnan. I have just discussed this matter with the emperor and will be leaving in one or two days, so I came to tell you today."

Jiang Qingyu's words surprised Jiang's father, "Why did you think of going to Jiangnan when all is well?

Didn't I ask you and your aunt to go back and take a look before, but you refused?"

“Dad, I was ignorant before, and now when I think about it, I want to slap myself.

I didn't go when my grandfather passed away, but this time I heard that my grandmother has been bedridden for a long time, so I wanted to go see her.

My mother was my grandmother's only daughter. Now that my mother is gone, I want to fulfill my filial duty on her behalf."

"Yu'er has really grown up and now considers others.

Well, you are right. Your mother has passed away for more than ten years. It would be a good idea for you to go and see her now.

Be sure to bring more soldiers with you when you go out, and be careful on the road. Write to dad more often when you have time to let him know you are safe. "

"Dad, don't worry, I know all this.

Okay, now that I have finished talking about things, I will go back to the palace first. I got up too early today and need to go back and catch up on some sleep. "

Although he was reluctant to let Jiang Qingyu go back so soon, seeing that she was yawning due to sleepiness, Father Jiang couldn't bear to keep her and watched her carriage leave the Duke's Mansion.
