Consort Shu listened to Mu Qianqian's words.
My heart jumped into my throat.
So much time has passed since that incident.
But she could never get over it.
She made countless assumptions about this matter.
They even considered that this whole affair might have been orchestrated by Emperor Yuanwu.
She could read Mu Qianqian's mind.
This daughter has helped her a lot since birth.
She never expected this.
Mu Qianqian actually knew about this.
Actually, both of them are innocent.
The person who actually summoned my uncle wasn't Princess Chang'an, but someone from the Empress Dowager's faction.
The Empress Dowager's people!
Four simple words.
It was as if something had struck Consort Shu's heart hard.
The Empress Dowager is hiding her true identity very well!
From beginning to end, she guessed almost everyone in the palace.
But no one could have guessed that the mastermind behind this was actually the Empress.
She harbored a deep resentment towards Princess Chang'an's mother, both from her palace and from her grandfather—cough, cough, um, Father, you know what I mean!
Emperor Yuanwu:...
Is this something she should know?
Why was Princess Chang'an's mother able to live peacefully in the imperial palace for so many years?
Even if the guards there are extremely tight, there will still be some openings.
The Empress Dowager kept her alive so that Princess Chang'an would have the opportunity to leave the palace.
Otherwise, what heinous crime could a princess raised deep within the palace commit? At most, she could be married off to a distant land for political reasons.
Only by leaving the palace will I meet more people and experience more things.
My grandfather's army wasn't stationed outside the palace for long, so why was Princess Chang'an also at the palace at that exact time?
What a coincidence! She ran into my uncle just as she was leaving the palace.
All of this was arranged by the Empress Dowager.
[But she didn't expect that my uncle was a man of great loyalty and righteousness; even after enduring torture, he refused to reveal Princess Chang'an's identity.]
[Therefore, her plan to use Princess Chang'an's reputation to her advantage will not work.]
[The so-called Crown Prince of Ningguo was all arranged by the Empress Dowager. It wasn't the Crown Prince of Ningguo who had contact with Princess Chang'an from beginning to end and caused her pregnancy.]
In fact, Princess Chang'an had never even met the Crown Prince of Ningguo.
The Empress Dowager originally intended to reveal this matter only after Princess Chang'an gave birth.
However, this Princess Chang'an...emmmm
[That's kind of silly!]
Mu Qianqian couldn't help but mutter to herself.
This empress dowager truly deserves to be the champion of the previous palace intrigue.
What a grand scheme!
She was reading this part of the book.
My thought process has been completely straightened out.
Consort Shu gasped.
He made a silent vow in his heart.
In this inner palace, one must never offend the Empress Dowager.
She really wanted to kill someone.
You can't even hear a sound.
If I hadn't heard Mu Qianqian's inner thoughts...
She truly never imagined that this was all there in her life.
Emperor Yuanwu listened to Mu Qianqian's heartfelt words without showing any emotion on his face, but what was he really thinking?
Mu Qianqian wasn't sure what to do.
She could only feel that Emperor Yuanwu's grip on her had tightened slightly.
In fact, it was neither Princess Chang'an nor her mother.
They were probably not important people to Emperor Yuanwu.
After all, it's within the depths of this palace.
Even if they were born to the same mother.
Faced with the prospect of personal gain, most people would choose to sacrifice family for the greater good.
It's possible that Princess Chang'an was a girl, and Emperor Yuanwu simply treated her as a younger sister from a young age.
