"Is Mother trying to save Father now?"

"Hmm! How did you know?"

"Because my mother would often space out when she was thinking about something."

"Is that so? But Mother hasn't decided what to do yet this time?"

"How is Father doing in prison?"

"It's okay, but it's dark and damp there."

"Then we should hurry up and rescue Father."

"Yes! Is there any way to get Tangyuan?"

Tangyuan couldn't understand why her father had gone to prison.

"Disobey the imperial decree."

"Is it because of the princess?"

I guess so!

"If you want to get away with it, you can make amends by doing good deeds, or you can wait until the Emperor's birthday when he is in a good mood and announces a pardon, or the princess can take the initiative to step in and help you out."

"A pardon is out of the question, and there's no way to make amends for the time being. It seems we'll have to talk to the princess first."

"But Tangyuan heard that the princess is arrogant and domineering, and may not be easy to persuade."

"We'll have to try it to know! Rumors aren't always reliable!"

"Yes! That's right. There's also a rumor that Mother was a fox spirit reincarnated."

"How do you know everything!?"

"I know a lot, Mother, don't be sad. Let's work together to find a way to rescue Father."

"good!"

"Is it appropriate for you to tell Tangyuan this?" Li Xingyun asked as she entered from outside.

"He'll find out sooner or later anyway, so can't we still help each other out now?"

"Maybe I should try to find someone to help me."

"No need, I'll figure something out. You should rest here, brother!"

"Madam, something terrible has happened! Princess Shaohua and Princess Chengning have barged in!" Steward Zhou said hurriedly.

"So fast! The guards just left, and she's here!" Tian Yu said with a smile.

"Madam, why don't you hide for a while? This old servant will send someone to inform Prince Wu right away."

"No need, let them in. Princess Chengning is the youngest daughter of Lord Li's family, isn't she?"

"Indeed, Madam, it would be best to stay hidden for a while."

“It’s too late,” Li Xingyun said.

"Yes, I was wondering how to meet the princess, and now she's come to me on her own initiative!" Tian Yu said, standing up as she saw a large group of people walking towards her courtyard.
