Chapter 604
Yun Changliang had no choice but to explain the whole story.
The more the emperor listened, the deeper his brow furrowed.
The Crown Prince, the Huo family, and the Yun family have been embroiled in a heated dispute recently, but unexpectedly, the source of the conflict lies with two women.
The emperor shook his head as he listened.
"Your wife is quite pitiful."
However, even the most pitiful people have their hateful aspects.
After hearing the whole story, the emperor found it uninteresting.
"You don't need to come these next couple of days. Take care of your family matters first."
Yun Changliang looked terrified: "Your Majesty! This matter is not a big deal. I already have a solution. Please have mercy!"
The emperor immediately realized he had misunderstood and chuckled, "I didn't mean to leave you idle at home; I meant to let you finish dealing with that matter before you come back."
Yun Changliang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but his attitude remained firm: "Your Majesty understands that you are considerate of me, but I hold an important position. How can I let family matters interfere with state affairs?"
"Moreover, there is a disaster in Lingnan that is urgent, so how can I shirk my duty?"
Upon hearing him recount the disaster in Lingnan, the emperor straightened his expression and said, "It is truly a blessing for the people to have someone like you in the court who cares about the world."
"Your Majesty is extremely busy with state affairs, while my duties are limited to this small part. Naturally, I must keep a close eye on things for Your Majesty."
It has to be said that listening to Yun Changliang speak is much better than listening to Chen Rang's dry and uninspired speech.
The emperor waved his hand, signaling him to leave.
——
After leaving the palace, Yun Changliang went straight to the Huo family.
As expected, Madam Yun was still waiting at the Huo family's gate, refusing to leave and shouting that they should return her child.
As Yun Changliang walked along, he saw many onlookers not far away, and his already unpleasant expression became even more gloomy.
He walked closer, looked at the madwoman Yun, and a barely perceptible look of disgust flashed in his eyes.
But outside, he still had to squat down and patiently say, "Madam, why did you run out? Come home with me."
"No! I want my child! I want my child!"
Seeing her like this, Yun Changliang became even more irritated.
When Yunxi was first found, Yun Changliang was prepared to treat her with utmost care. However, Madam Yun said that the overall situation was more important and that Yunxi should have a child for Yun Wan.
From the very beginning, Madam Yun never truly regarded Yun Xi as her own daughter.
No, perhaps Madam Yun felt that Yun Xi came into this world because of her, so she could use her without any pressure.
But why are you putting on this loving mother act now?
"Madam, Xi'er has already gone home. I just came from home, and she is waiting for you there."
Hearing Yun Changliang's words, a strange light shone in Madam Yun's eyes: "Really?"
"Of course, when have I ever lied to you, Madam?"
Upon hearing this, Madam Yun hurriedly got up from the ground, stumbled onto the carriage, and urged everyone to hurry back.
She went back on her own, which at least made her look presentable to outsiders.
Yun Changliang breathed a sigh of relief, but instead of riding in the same carriage as Madam Yun, he turned around and got into his own carriage.
The two carriages returned to the mansion one after the other.
