Mrs. Gu felt uneasy when she learned that Princess Yan Yang was leaving the house and heading towards the palace.

In addition, the groom had not returned home, so she sent someone to check on him, only to discover that his entire family had disappeared. Even his son, who was studying at Qingshan Academy, had dropped out of school and disappeared.

She panicked, thinking that the matter must have been discovered. She asked her daughter to ask Qiao Guangzhi why he didn't stop Princess Yan Yang from making trouble.

On the other hand, she prepared the carriage, changed into plain clothes, made herself look pitiful, and hurried to ask for an audience with the wife of Marquis Xuanping.

The wife of Marquis Xuanping was close friends with her. After the wife of Marquis Xuanping lost her little daughter, she often came to comfort her, and the wife of Marquis Xuanping trusted her even more.

So even though the visit today was sudden, the nanny beside the wife of Marquis Xuanping still brought Madam Gu to her own wife's room.

Mrs. Gu cried and complained, but she only spoke in a way that was beneficial to herself.

It was said that the coachman was greedy for credit and deliberately made Princess Yan Yang misunderstand him.

There was also the matter of Gu Wanru. She said that Gu Wanru was forcibly taken away by someone and was forced to cancel the marriage. Not only did she offend Princess Yan Yang, but she also had to marry that man.

She wanted to ask Lady Xuanping Hou to come to the palace and ask the Queen to go to the Queen Mother to negotiate, but Lady Xuanping Hou refused without a second thought.

She had already lost one daughter and she couldn't cause any more trouble for her eldest daughter.

The empress dowager was very dissatisfied with the fact that her eldest daughter, although she was the empress, had no children.

If the eldest daughter were to come into conflict with Princess Yan Yang, who had always been favored by the Empress Dowager, because of such a matter, I am afraid that the eldest daughter would be even less favored by the Empress Dowager in the future.

Mrs. Gu concealed her distorted expression by lowering her head and wiping her tears with a handkerchief.

She was always hypocritically kind, but she still had to get this done. She pretended to suddenly remember something and hesitated:

"I overheard a while ago from a woman saying that her sister had abducted and sold children in the capital before, some of whom were as old as Guaibao. Maybe we can find Guaibao."

The wife of Marquis Xuanping struggled to get up from the hospital bed and anxiously held Mrs. Gu's hand.

"Really? Tell me where that person is. I need to get up and look for my sweet baby."

Madam Gu pretended to be troubled and said, "I am so busy with the lawsuit right now that I am afraid I won't be able to remember who that woman is for a while."

Lady Xuanping Hou knew that she was threatening her, but what else could she do? As long as there was a glimmer of hope, she would always try.

"I will go to the palace to see the queen right away."

Madam Gu said happily, "Then I will go back home and wait for news. Once this matter is over, my mind will be calm and I will definitely remember that old woman."

After watching the wife of Marquis Xuanping get on the carriage and go to the palace, Mrs. Gu returned home triumphantly.

After hearing what her mother said, the queen agreed immediately.

"Mrs. Gu's move is too coincidental. I'm afraid it's fake news. But it was me who took my sister out that year, and she got lost. Even if it's fake news, I still want to give it a try. I'm afraid that if it's true, we'll have missed my sister."

The wife of the Marquis Xuanping hugged the Queen and cried bitterly, saying:

"It's not your fault. It's my fault for not taking good care of you two sisters. I know I've made things difficult for you today. Just keep taking the secret recipe I found for you last time. Everything will be fine once you have a baby."

The queen felt bitter in her heart, but she did not show it on her face. She asked the wife of Marquis Xuanping to leave the palace first, then she fixed her makeup and made the lotus cake that the queen mother loved with her own hands before going to the queen mother's palace.

When he arrived at the palace gate, he couldn't enter the hall. He said that Princess Yan Yang was talking in the Empress Dowager's palace and asked the Queen to come again another day.

Unable to see the Queen Mother, the Queen was determined not to leave and stood outside for an hour. The Emperor heard the news and rushed over to take the Queen away. He did have some true feelings for the Queen, but the Queen had not been pregnant, and the Queen Mother was becoming more and more dissatisfied, which made him very embarrassed.

When the empress dowager heard that the empress had been taken away by the emperor, she still felt uncomfortable, even though she couldn't give birth to a child.

Surprisingly, she still couldn't tell right from wrong. Princess Yanyang said that Madam Gu and the wife of Marquis Xuanping had always been good friends. The wife of Marquis Xuanping had just seen the Queen, and the Queen came to see her. She must have come to speak to Madam Gu.

The Empress Dowager decided that she absolutely could not see the Queen today, and she even wrote an imperial decree overnight to deal with Madam Gu. She also had to discuss the matter with the Emperor the next morning, and the Emperor would issue the decree.

At dawn, the maid in the Empress Dowager's palace brought the Empress Dowager's order and the people from Shuntian Prefecture to have Madam Gu imprisoned. The Queen heard about it and was anxious in her own palace. Then she heard from the palace people that her mother wanted to see her.

She saw her mother's eyes were red and she was in a state of madness. She blamed herself:

"Mother, I'm sorry. I didn't even get to see the Queen Mother, so I couldn't explain everything to Madam Gu."

When Lady Xuanping Hou heard Lady Gu's name, she was filled with hatred.

"There's no need to flatter that evil woman in front of the Queen Mother. She's a sheep in wolf's clothing. She's the one who kidnapped your sister. I dreamed of your sister last night. Madam Gu had knocked her unconscious with a handkerchief and hidden her in her carriage, and she was so kind she stayed with me until dawn to look for the child. Who knew your sister was sleeping in her carriage?

Then she hid Guaibao in her backyard and made him a servant for Gu Wanru."

The queen was incredulous, "Mother, this is just a dream."

The wife of the Marquis Xuanping shook her head. "I know it was a dream, but it felt so real. It must be my sweetheart reminding me. I'm going to sue Madam Gu for kidnapping my sweetheart. Let's go and ask to see the Queen Mother."

When the Queen Mother heard that the Queen and the wife of Marquis Xuanping were asking for an audience together, she was unhappy, but she couldn't just avoid seeing them forever. Seeing the state of the two, she was shocked. A mere Madam Gu was not a relative of the wife of Marquis Xuanping, so it was not worth it for them to do this.

After listening to the crying complaint of the wife of Marquis Xuanping, the Queen Mother finally understood that she had made a mistake yesterday and that the Queen had come to her to arrest Madam Gu.

I didn't expect there would be such a vicious woman, so I immediately agreed to take charge.
