Thinking of this, Yu Yiluo suddenly caught something.
"That's not right. Since Third Brother has memories of his past life, why doesn't he seem to be meeting an old friend when he sees Master Changyun?"
[There seems to be only one explanation: although the Third Brother has memories of his past life, they are not all.]
"I'm not sure."
Empress Xian's voice interrupted Yu Yiluo's thoughts.
"Don't worry, Sister Defei. There's no danger in investigating this matter. If you're worried about not finding Prince Duan and the Emperor punishing him, that's even more impossible."
According to the emperor's temperament, the most he could do was give him a verbal punishment.
Concubine De chuckled and said, "It's not me who's worried, it's my niece who's so crooked."
At this time, a young eunuch came in, greeted several people and said to Concubine Rou, "Concubine Rou, your mother has entered the palace."
Concubine Rou's face was full of joy. Her mother had actually arrived early. She stood up and looked at the two of them.
Concubine Xian and the other girl smiled at each other and said, "Go quickly."
Yu Yiluo followed Concubine Rou out of Zuihua Palace. Concubine Xian knew that she couldn't sit still, so she didn't care about her.
…
After walking for a while, Concubine Rou noticed Yu Yiluo following behind her.
She stopped and turned to look at Yu Yiluo.
"Little Princess, are you going to my palace?"
Yu Yiluo actually wanted to go to the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace, but Concubine Rou had already walked up to her in two steps. She changed her mind and said in a baby voice, "Yes."
She went to Concubine Rou's bedroom. After entering the room, Concubine Rou put Yu Yiluo down, walked forward with red eyes, and held her mother who was sitting on the chair.
"Mom, I finally get to see you."
"Don't cry, what's that like?"
Mrs. Mao wiped her daughter's tears and looked at her.
"Seeing you look so good, I'm relieved."
The two sat down next to each other, and their eyes turned red after a heartwarming conversation.
"I heard it all when I came here. Empress Xian and the others treated you very well."
Concubine Rou nodded and looked at Yu Yiluo who was playing beside her.
"The little princess also came with her daughter."
Mao looked at Yu Yiluo, whose little face was fair and delicate, without a single flaw.
Her big eyes were brighter than the stars in the sky. She had two buns on her head, with red ribbons wrapped around the buns and hanging beside her ears. She was wearing a red jacket with gold edges.
It seemed that she heard them mention her, so she looked at them without blinking.
"This subject has met the little princess."
Mao stood up and saluted.
"Get up... now."
Yu Yiluo raised her hand, feeling that it was inappropriate for her to be here for the mother and daughter to meet, so she left the room.
After watching her departing figure, Mao sat back in her chair and took Concubine Rou's hand.
"What a lovely child! If you had one too, I would be truly relieved."
Concubine Rou pulled her hand away and frowned slightly.
"Mom, what do you want to say?"
Mao looked at her empty palms and whispered, "What I'm going to say next may not sound good, but I still have to say it."
"Mother, I've heard about your efforts. I was able to enter the palace thanks to Empress Xian. If that's the case, why don't you ask Empress Xian to speak for you in front of the Emperor so that you can have a son or daughter?"
Yu Yiluo, who was outside the door, shook her head upon hearing this, and was very disgusted with Mao's behavior.
"Mother," Roupin's joy at seeing her family vanished immediately because of these words, "Do you know who is responsible for my daughter's survival?"
She sniffed, "It's because of Concubine Xian and the others. They've been very kind to me and have protected my well-hidden pride. Since you know you entered the palace because of them, how is it any different from repaying kindness with enmity by letting your daughter do this?"
"Calm down first and listen to what I have to say."
Mao wanted to hold her daughter's hand. She knew that it was indeed shameless to do so, but her daughter couldn't rely on Concubine Xian and others for the rest of her life.
"I can't calm down," Roupin put her hands into her sleeves, her tone disappointed. "Didn't you and Daddy say in the letter that as long as I'm happy, it's fine. Why are you asking me to do such a shameless thing now?"
"Before, because of your cousin's matter, you didn't have the ability to fight for it. But now it's different. After all, there will be others even if you are gone. Empress Xian and the others are not stupid. It's better to be you than to be someone else. They will definitely help you."
Concubine Rou was so angry that she laughed. The person in front of her was obviously her mother, but she felt more unfamiliar than ever before.
"Mother, if you came to the palace today just to say these words, I would rather you had never come to the palace. That way, I wouldn't be disappointed in you."
"Rou'er."
Mao emphasized her tone, "Although what you said may be harsh, think about it yourself. Concubine Xian and the others have family backgrounds and children. What do you have?"
"Concubines without children will be buried with the emperor in the future."
"You know your words are harsh?" Concubine Rou looked out the window. "I would rather be buried with you than be ungrateful."
After saying this, Concubine Rou called out to the outside.
"Jinzhi, send my mother out of the palace."
Jinzhi hurried in and wanted to persuade her, but thinking of Roupin's temper, she said nothing in the end and took Mao out.
Mao felt a little annoyed. She was indeed worried about her daughter. Life was so long, and having a child would make it less difficult for her to endure in the deep palace.
Otherwise, when she and the master pass away, she will have no ties at all.
"Madam, you should understand the Queen's temper."
After escorting the person to the door, Jinzhi said softly, "Although Madam is doing this for the good of the Empress, she also needs her consent. If she resists in her heart, how can it be said to be for her good? Don't you agree?"
"Forget it," Mao sighed and handed the item in her sleeve to Jinzhi, "Give this to her for me."
Jinzhi nodded, looked at Mao's departing back, and shook her head.
The family reunion that the Empress had been waiting for so long ended in such a bad mood.
She held the thing in her hand, turned around and went back to the bedroom, and walked gently to the side of Concubine Rou.
"My lady, please don't be angry with the lady."
"You heard it just now," said Concubine Rou, sitting sideways. "How did Sister Xianfei and the others treat me? Tell me."
"Of course it's excellent."
"Then don't try to persuade me. She was wrong in this matter."
Roupin tightly grasped the handkerchief and said, "If I really do what she says, I might as well die."
"Your Highness," Jinzhi put the things in her hands on the table and poured her a cup of tea, "I am not trying to persuade you, please drink some tea."
Roupin took the tea, took a sip, noticed something on the table, raised an eyebrow and asked, "What is this?"
Jinzhi opened the butter paper and said with a smile, "This is your favorite peach cake, Madam. Didn't you keep asking for it? Madam brought it to you."
"By the way, where's the little princess?"
I was so angry just now that I forgot about the little princess.
Yu Yiluo deliberately waited until the two of them had finished talking before poking her head in.
"Hurry and bring the little princess in."
Yu Yiluo was carried in by Jinzhi, staring at the peach cakes on the table with sparkling eyes.
He looked away after realizing he couldn't eat it.
