"What are you talking about, young lady? That dream... is indeed a bit weird, but it is just a dream after all, don't take it seriously. Even if it is true, what does it matter?

No matter how much the prince hates you, he still has to live his life, right? He is injured now. Who else is qualified to visit the queen mother for him except you? Only you. "

"But don't you think that everything about the Ruan family was arranged by him?"

Grandma Wang: "How can this be possible? The Ruan family's affairs have not been revealed to anyone until now. It was all suppressed by Master Wang. If he did it, why would he suppress the news?"

"But if he hadn't said that he was in charge of everything, why would we have waited for Master Lu to torture those subordinates of the Ruan family? We trusted him too much, and that's why we suffered such a big loss."

"This..." Granny Wang thought for a while and said, "Could it be a misunderstanding? Lu Da's torture of the Ruan family might have been the work of Prince Gong's Mansion."

Ruan Yihe shook her head. "He was helping Ruan Xinchen. Even if it was the work of Prince Gong's Mansion, he didn't stop it, right?"

Hearing her say this, Grandma Wang thought it made sense.

Her sister... committed suicide the next day after the accident.

In fact, she knew that as subordinates, they had to take the blame for their masters when necessary, even at the cost of their lives.

My sister is like this, and she may be the same in the future.

"The prince's thoughts are indeed hard to figure out. Let's try to think positively. Under the current circumstances, you have no choice but to firmly hold the position of Princess Zhan. The old man and my husband are now... they don't know what will happen in the future. In short, they don't care about you."

Ruan Yihe nodded. It was true. Her parents could no longer be relied upon. Now she could only rely on herself.

"Okay, I'll go to the palace. Not only today, but also tomorrow. In the future... in the future, I will go often."

Grandma Wang smiled with satisfaction, "That's right."

…

The next day, Ruan Yihe went to visit the Queen Mother with gifts carefully selected by the palace's butler.

Although the Queen Mother declined many visits, she still treated Chu Li's princess differently.

She wants to tell the world that even though Chu Li is a waste, he is still her favorite grandson, and none of you should think of taking advantage of him and bullying him.

Even if it was just a show, she couldn't bear to see her eldest grandson suffer any injustice.

"Let her in."

"yes."

Soon, Ruan Yihe came in led by Gong 그, and performed the greetings in a proper manner, looking a little better than before.

"My Lord, I heard that Grandmother was ill and had trouble sleeping and eating. I wanted to come and see you, but I was not feeling well and it was inconvenient for me to come to the palace. So I just came to ask my grandson and daughter-in-law to come and see you. Is Grandmother okay?"

This was a reasonable statement, but the Queen Mother still treated her indifferently.

There's nothing I can do. The initial impression was too bad.

In fact, the Queen Mother originally wanted to treat her well. At least in the next ten years, she had to hold her granddaughter-in-law in high esteem.

뇾She calmed down the coquettish bitches around her eldest grandson.

Ten years later, the daughter of the Xiao family grew up.

Young and beautiful, she can be sent to the eldest grandson's backyard and reap the benefits directly.

Unfortunately, Ruan Yihe is not presentable enough, and even if you want to praise her, you can't do it.

"Li'er is thoughtful."

The Queen Mother asked her to bring the gift.

Ruan Yihe smiled slightly and said, "Grandmother looks fine. When the granddaughter-in-law tells the prince the truth, he will be relieved."

The corners of the Queen Mother's mouth twitched, and she thought: I was just pretending in the first place, and my eldest grandson knows it very well, so does he need you to pass on the message?

It can be seen from this that the eldest grandson did not trust her at all and could not open up to her at all.

The Queen Mother curled her lips and said, "I heard that you upset Li'er again and confined her for a long time. What stupid thing did you do this time?"

Ruan Yihe was startled and her face turned pale.

The Queen Mother said this, not giving her any face at all.

She originally thought that as long as she could please the Queen Mother, she could consolidate her position, and Chu Li's favor would not be that important.

She never expected that the Queen Mother would not give her any face at all.

“Grandson’s daughter-in-law…grandson’s daughter-in-law…” She hesitated, but her heart was surging like a huge wave.

Because a terrible thought suddenly emerged in her mind.

She wanted to tell the Queen Mother about Chu Liqian's foolish deeds.

But... doing so is very risky.

If the Queen Mother didn't believe her, or if she did, she would scold Chu Li... In short, as long as Chu Li knew that she was the one who told the story, she would be dead.

But if I don’t say it… Chu Li will hate me and the Queen Mother will dislike me.

How could she be willing to live such a life?

"What?" The Queen Mother's face darkened, and she snorted coldly, "You can't even speak clearly, you are so stupid, how can you be such a princess?"

"No." Saying that she couldn't be Princess Zhan was like a warning bell ringing in her heart.

Why can't she do it?

If she can't do it, who can? Ruan Xinchen?

But in this life, Chu Li liked her, noble ladies from various families fawned on her, and even the Queen Mother favored her.

Why?

How am I inferior to her?

Why is it that everyone likes her, but I am the only one who is not presentable?

The strong reluctance gave her courage, and Ruan Yihe looked up at the Queen Mother and said, "Grandma, can you dismiss the attendants?"

"Oh?" The Queen Mother took a sip of tea and looked at her in surprise.

After a few moments of silence, she asked everyone to leave.

"Everyone, please leave."

"Yes, Queen."

Grandma Xu led the palace maids out, and now there were only her and Ruan Yihe in the huge palace.

"Tell me what's the matter. I need to dismiss you all."

Ruan Yihe then started to cry, "Grandma, the prince locked up his grandson's wife because... because he caught him having an affair with his sister."

Um?

The Queen Mother was a little surprised, "Which sister?"

"Yes... She is the grandson's wife's younger sister."

Queen Mother: “…”Who is her sister?

After thinking for a while, the Queen Mother finally remembered and was shocked, "Your sister is the one who married with you to Prince Gong's Mansion?"

Ruan Yihe knelt on the bed, wiped her tears and said, "Yes."

"what?"

The Queen Mother's eyes widened.

"The granddaughter-in-law accidentally caught us and said some unpleasant things. The prince was really angry and wanted to imprison her. First, he wanted to punish her, and second, he was worried that she would go out and say something, which would affect his sister's reputation. For this reason, he even colluded with the second son of Prince Gong's mansion to cover it up, saying something about putting croton seeds..."

Once she reminded her, the Queen Mother remembered.

She felt it was strange at the time, and because she couldn't find Chu Xuanling, she gave Chu Xuanche a chin bean.

Not to mention that this doesn't make sense, doesn't she know what an eldest grandson is?

How could he be so childish as to take revenge on his elder brother?

The Queen Mother was furious when she heard this, saying that the woman seemed like a concubine's daughter.

No, that's not important. What's important is that she marries into the family she hates the most.
