Chapter 382 Things are going to change

The Lady Dowager of the Yueguo Mansion is the pinnacle of the entire Yueguo Mansion. She possesses an extremely supreme and transcendent status, but at the same time she is also the pinnacle with the least presence.

The Lady Dowager was the maternal grandmother of Emperor Jiade. Emperor Jiade's biological mother was not favored in the harem of the previous emperor. She gave birth to only one child, Emperor Jiade, and died suddenly and without any warning when Emperor Jiade was only five or six years old.

However, the lucky Emperor Jiade was favored by the Grand Princess and was taken to the Queen's Palace of the late emperor to be raised personally.

After learning that her only child died in the harem, the lady was heartbroken and simply gave up on the affairs of the mansion. She devoted herself to Buddhism and prayed for her daughter and grandson, and did not ask about the affairs of Duke Yue's mansion at all.

Even when Li Shiliu married into Duke Yue's mansion as Princess Sheng'an, the lady did not ask about it.

Li Shiliu had been married into the Yueguo Mansion for several months and had only met the lady-in-waiting once.

Now, if the people from the Dali Temple hadn't come to investigate a case in the mansion, for fear of disturbing the lady's peace, I'm afraid the lady wouldn't have asked a word.

Unlike the luxury of the entire Yueguo Mansion, the lady's courtyard is just an ordinary, low-key and simple blue brick courtyard. It is also separated from the main courtyard of Yueguo Mansion by a wall, leaving only an inconspicuous door for visitors to pass through.

After telling the old woman guarding the door their purpose, Li Shiliu and Meng Qisui stood obediently at the gate waiting to be informed.

A slightly awkward atmosphere permeated between the two of them. What was rare was that it was Meng Qisui who took the initiative to break the deadlock and speak.

"The murder of the maid may be related to the Second Young Master Tong.

Master Tong loves the Second Young Master Tong like the apple of his eye. Now Master Tong is out suppressing bandits. I wonder what Princess Sheng An thinks of this?"

"I have no opinion." Li Shiliu replied calmly.

Meng Qisui was slightly startled. He originally thought that Li Shiliu would show some dissatisfaction or worry, but he didn't expect her to be so calm. This made him curious. What exactly was Li Shiliu thinking?

"Princess, do you really think it doesn't matter?" Meng Qisui couldn't help but ask.

Li Shiliu raised his head, looked at Meng Qisui, and smiled slightly: "If the emperor breaks the law, he will be punished the same as the common people, not to mention that he is just an ordinary young master Tong.

If Lord Meng is worried about the embarrassment of Lord Tong, who loves his son dearly, and cannot make up his mind, he can investigate the case thoroughly and then report it directly to the emperor, who will make the decision personally.

The Emperor is well aware of the situation at the Yueguo Mansion, so Lord Meng doesn't need to worry too much."

Li Shiliu's words made Meng Qisui slightly stunned. It was obvious that she had something else in her words.

The Emperor knows about the Yueguo Mansion...

What's the number?

Thinking back to when Li Shiliu married into the Duke of Yue's Mansion as Princess Sheng'an, the adopted daughter of the Grand Princess, the Emperor and the Grand Princess not only attended the wedding in person, they also gave her 20 sword-bearing guards as a dowry. Most importantly, they found an excuse to suppress bandits and transferred Tong Guoan away from Yuanjing City.

Whose daughter would be given 20 sword-bearing guards when she gets married?

Moreover, if the Grand Princess and the Emperor had not been instructing her behind the scenes, Li Shiliu would not have caused such a huge upheaval after marrying Duke Yue.

Could it be that……

A hint of shock flashed across Meng Qisui's eyes.

It seems that things are really going to change in Yuanjing City.
