Chapter 178: The Duke of Zhenguo Returns to Beijing (2/2)



But what exactly happened that could cause Concubine Shu to change overnight?

"Your Highness, it would be better for you to stay out of the house during this period. After all, the Emperor doesn't want to see you, so you should just take care of yourself."

After saying this, Concubine Shu stood up and walked out of the side hall with Lianyi.

Behind them, there was the sound of breaking porcelain.

Lianyi asked fearfully, "My queen, what should we do with the queen mother in this state?"

"If she had any other ideas, she wouldn't be so angry. A person will only become furious when they are in a desperate situation. We can't stop her, and we don't need to stop her."

Shu Guifei knew very well that whatever happened with the empress dowager would soon reach the ears of Emperor Jing of Wei, and by then, it would only make Emperor Jing of Wei hate the empress dowager even more.

I have to say, Su Chenyu's move was really brilliant.

First, he asked himself to deal with the Queen Mother's affairs and send Emperor Jing of Wei away, so that the mother and son would feel resentful.

But the plan was successful because Su Chenyu had calculated that Emperor Jing of Wei was cold and selfish. If he had any mother-son affection for the empress dowager, he would not have left like this, and the plan would not have succeeded.

"My lady, where are we going next?"

"Of course I'll go meet Concubine Yun." A faint smile appeared on Concubine Shu's face. She had to let Concubine Yun know who had harmed her, right?

She still had the same gentle smile, but Lianyi always felt that there was something different about Concubine Shu, but she couldn't put her finger on it...

At this moment, in Baili Mansion, the old lady sent someone to invite Su Chenyu and Baili Yanqing to Fushou Hall early in the morning.

As soon as the old lady had almost recovered from her back injury, she immediately thought about mending her relationship with Beiyuan. After thinking about it for a long time, she finally figured out a solution.

"Ancestor worship?" Baili Yanqing found it ridiculous to hear the old lady talking about ancestor worship.

The old lady nodded and said, "The master is from Ning County. He always talked about going back to his hometown to worship his ancestors. Unfortunately, he was always fighting everywhere and never had the chance. I am also thinking of fulfilling the master's wish. Yan Qing's father was the son that the master loved very much when he was alive. If Yan Qing is willing to accompany me to Ning County, the master will definitely be very pleased if he knows about it in the afterlife."

The old lady knew that the only way to repair the relationship with Baili Yanqing now was to use the old Zhenguo to revive their old relationship.

Baili Yanqing had heard his father mention that one of the few regrets the old Zhenguo had in his life was that he had never visited Ning County again. He didn't know what happened to the Baili family's ancestral tomb now.

"It's great that the old lady has this intention. But the weather is too hot right now, so it's not suitable to rush to Ning County. Let's wait until the weather is suitable."

Hearing Baili Yanqing's words, the old lady frowned and said, "Yanqing, this has always been the master's wish. If you keep delaying it, I don't know when it will end. You should hurry up. I am an old man and I am not afraid of hard work. You are so young, what are you afraid of?"

This time the old lady was using her reputation as the old guardian of the country, so Baili Yanqing and Su Chenyu really couldn't refuse directly.

"I'm afraid you've forgotten, old lady? Back then, my father said he wanted to go to Ning County to worship his ancestors, but you refused to go, and missed that opportunity in vain. As a result, my father never had the chance to go to Ning County again, which became his lifelong regret. It was also because of that affair that my father said that he would never let you go to Ning County again in the future."

A tall figure walked in at some point, looking a bit exhausted. "Old Madam, if you want your father to rest in peace, you'd better not mention the Ning County ancestor worship ceremony anymore."

Seeing the man coming, Baili Yanqing's eyes flashed with surprise. He stood up, walked step by step to the man, and shouted, "Father!"

Baili Yuan saw Baili Yanqing standing up again, with a relieved smile on his face. He stretched out his hand to pat Baili Yanqing on the shoulder, but found that his son had grown taller than him, so he slowly withdrew his hand and said, "Yanqing, you have been wronged during this period of time. Dad is here."
