Hong Fu went to Yuehua Pavilion herself and stood under the corridor for a long time without daring to urge them. She lifted her eyelids and glanced inside.
The third sister was engrossed in reading a book.
She clenched her fists, feeling a little anxious.
Finally, Granny Zhang came out.
Hongfu, as if seeing a lifeline, hurriedly grabbed Zhang Mama's sleeve: "Mama, the Grand Madam wishes to see the Third Young Lady. Please inform her."
Granny Zhang gently brushed Hong Fu's hand away and said expressionlessly, "I am just a servant, how dare I presume to be the master's master?"
"But the Dowager is still waiting."
Zhang Mama remained expressionless. In her eyes, only the master of Yuehua Pavilion was the master, and she did not recognize anyone else!
"Let's wait a little longer."
After saying that, he went to work without looking back.
Helpless, Hongfu had no choice but to continue waiting.
Song Yue yawned and turned to another page, with Yun Dong serving her from the side.
An hour later, another maid from Ninghui Hall came to urge her on, and Hongfu finally mustered up the courage to step forward: "Third, Third Miss, the Grand Madam wants you to go there as soon as possible."
Song Yue didn't even look up: "When you ask for a favor, you should have the right attitude. I don't plan to leave Yuehua Pavilion today."
Hearing this, Hong Fu's eyes widened. Did she really want the Grand Madam to come and find the Third Miss herself?
Seeing that the Third Miss was unmoved by reason, Hong Fu had no choice but to leave and relay Song Yue's words to the Grand Madam.
The old lady gritted her teeth: "Go to Yuehua Pavilion!"
She no longer expects Song Yue to respect the elderly and care for the young; his behavior is exactly the same as Princess Jia Hua's.
After an incense stick had burned, the Grand Madam arrived at Yuehua Pavilion and finally saw Song Yue. She asked in an annoyed tone, "Did you ask the Emperor to summon the Fan family to the capital?"
Song Yue nodded.
"Why did you do this?" The old lady's heart pounded.
Song Yue scoffed: "Doesn't Grandmother know perfectly well what's going on? Are we just going to let go of a mistake made more than ten years ago?"
The old lady stared intently at Song Yue, trying to discern something, but the other woman only wore a provocative smile. She patiently asked, "Do you know something?"
"If you don't want others to know, then don't do it in the first place," she said.
The Dowager Lady dared not gamble, but the thought of the entire Fan family coming to the capital made her restless, and she asked again, "What do you want?"
Song Yue softly uttered two words: "The truth!"
The old lady's mind went blank for a moment. Sure enough, she was not targeting Madam Fan for no reason. She must have known something. She quickly explained, "Yue'er, don't listen to the gossip outside. There are many things that Grandmother has her reasons for."
Too lazy to pay attention to the old lady, she continued reading her book.
"Yue'er, Grandma wants to have a private talk with you."
"Grandmother, just say what you want to say. I'm worried about leaving someone by my side," Song Yue said.
The Dowager was speechless again, her face flushed red. She was about to say something when the Duke of Jingguo rushed in: "Mother, this brat doesn't know any manners. Why should you tolerate her? Let's go."
Song Yue didn't even look up: "I forgot to tell you, I just lit some incense in this room. It's poisonous and will take effect in a quarter of an hour."
The Duke of Jingguo's suppressed anger suddenly erupted, and he rushed over to cause trouble for Song Yue. As soon as he took a step, a member of the Imperial Guard appeared.
Wow!
The sword is drawn.
A cold light flashed, radiating a murderous aura, and blocked the way in front of the Duke of Jingguo.
"If they take another step, I'll kill them." Song Yue said calmly, as if she were joking.
Duke Jingguo's eyes widened, his breathing rapid: "Song Yue, I'm your father! How dare you commit patricide! Don't you value your life?"
“If I acknowledge you, then you are my father. If I don’t, what are you?” Song Yue put down the book in her hand and stood up abruptly. “It was my mother who carried me for ten months. You never raised me for a single day. What right do you have to call me father? Aren’t you ashamed at your age?”
"You!" The Duke of Jingguo had never seen such a rude person before, and was speechless after being rebuked.
Song Yue scoffed: "I'm sure you've seen my methods, Duke. Don't test my patience. If you anger Mother, she might have some reservations, but I won't. We'd rather die together!"
The more she acted like she cared, the easier it was for the other party to manipulate her and press her step by step.
Dealing with someone like the Duke of Jingguo is a contest of who is more willing to go all out.
The Duke of Jingguo stared intently at Song Yue: "You don't even care about your mother's feelings anymore. She protects you so much, how can you be so selfish?"
Song Yue's face turned cold: "If you want to tear off all pretenses, I'll fight you to the end!"
"Guards, throw him out!"
The Imperial Guards chased the man away without any politeness.
The mother and son were driven out. The old lady looked at the Duke of Jingguo and sighed, "We are now trapped in the capital, with no one to turn to for help. What can we do now?"
Was she supposed to just stand by and watch the Fan family enter the capital?
Duke Jingguo took a deep breath and continued knocking on the door: "I want to see the princess."
The Imperial Guard said, "The princess is unwell and will not see anyone. From today onwards, the Third Miss will be in charge of the Moonflower Pavilion. If the Duke has anything to discuss, he can consult with the Third Miss."
After saying that, he slammed the door shut again.
Ouch!
Suddenly, the old lady clutched her chest and cried out in pain, her body falling uncontrollably. The Duke of Jingguo was startled and quickly reached out to support her. The next second, he himself also felt unwell.
Duke Jingguo suddenly remembered that Song Yue had said earlier that she had lit poisonous incense in the room.
"Quickly, get a doctor!"
The two were carried back to Ninghui Hall.
After the doctor arrived, he took their pulses, performed acupuncture, bled them, and then prepared medicine to protect their heart vessels.
