Unlike the harmonious atmosphere at Rongyi Courtyard, Hongzhou was quite troubled. He had just discovered the clue about Qiuyun, who was very likely the one who delivered the mysterious letters. Although it hadn't been confirmed last time that Qiuyun was the one who wrote those three mysterious letters, Hongzhou still felt that Qiuyun had ulterior motives for coming to the Prince He's residence.
Even Qiu Yun's entry into the Prince He's mansion was premeditated. At this time, he had just begun investigating Qiu Yun and had Su Zhi keep a close eye on her. But just then, Qiu Yun had an accident while accompanying Geng Shi to the pond. Although Geng Shi was unharmed, Qiu Yun unexpectedly became Geng Shi's adopted daughter.
Zheng, in the study of Hongzhou in the Prince He's Mansion
"Your Highness, the Empress has adopted Qiu Yun as her goddaughter and moved her to a side hall in Rongyi Courtyard. Suzhi can no longer monitor Qiu Yun. What should we do?" After learning that Madam Geng had adopted Qiu Yun as her goddaughter, the steward hurriedly came to Hongzhou's study to report.
At this point, investigating Qiu Yun became even more difficult, which made Hong Zhou increasingly suspicious of her, but he couldn't find anything out, so he had to put the matter aside for the time being.
So Hongzhou sighed softly and instructed the steward, "Let's put this matter aside for now. Qiuyun wouldn't dare to do anything in Rongyi Courtyard."
"Yes." After agreeing, the butler left the study at Hongzhou's signal.
Perhaps because their previous actions had alerted the enemy, the person who delivered the mysterious letter made no further moves, and the Prince's mansion remained peaceful. Apart from Qiu Yun's changed identity, nothing else happened.
In the blink of an eye, autumn has gradually faded away in the autumn wind, and two months have passed without us even realizing it.
Today, Chongyang Palace is filled with a rare joyous occasion: Mingyu gave birth to a daughter. Since the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, Chonghua Palace has not been as lively as it is today.
Hongli was still processing memorials in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, so he did not return. After Mingyu gave birth to a daughter, the first to arrive at Mingyu's palace were Jin and Gao. The two of them always liked to curry favor with Mingyu, so they hurriedly came to Mingyu's palace and said, "Congratulations, Madam! Congratulations on the birth of your daughter!"
Hearing Gao and Jin's words, Mingyu looked at the princess by the bedside with a happy expression, her face full of satisfaction. Gao and Jin followed Mingyu's gaze, and Gao said first, "The princess is truly beautiful. The princess is so lucky."
Not to be outdone, Madam Jin smiled and said, "Yes, the Fujin is truly blessed. Now that she has both a son and a daughter, her wish to have a princess has been fulfilled."
"Yes, Yonglian will have a younger sister now." Mingyu's expression was full of joy.
While Lady Gao and Lady Jin were congratulating Mingyu, the other princesses and concubines from the other palaces also came to Mingyu's palace. Xueying from the East Side Palace and Lady Keliye also came to Mingyu's palace. They all brought congratulatory gifts to Mingyu's palace, which were mostly children's toys.
They all bowed to Mingyu, who was lying on the bed, and said, "Congratulations, Madam."
Mingyu smiled and gently waved to them, signaling them to get up. Then, the group walked to the bedside and looked at the newborn princess. Xueying, who was standing to the side, saw that the newborn princess was very beautiful and felt envious, wondering when she herself would be able to have a child.
Because Mingyu had just given birth and was still somewhat weak, everyone offered her some auspicious words before dispersing.
