The hall was quiet. Jue Luo was no longer nervous. She was going to break with her family completely. If Fei Yanggu made a scene, she would no longer plead for him.
“Sister, you should think about your brother. The Fourth Princess Consort is fine. Shouldn’t you plead for us?” Lady Jue Luo said matter-of-factly.
Previously, Jue Luo Shi had been too accommodating to them, and Xiao Guai had always been wronged and had to compromise.
Yin's eyes turned cold. No one from the Jue Luo clan had a firm foothold in the court. Among the generations of intermarriages, only Fei Yanggu was capable.
They were prepared to place all their hopes on Ulanara.
"Master, the three gentlemen from the Ulanara family have arrived." The arrival of Fei Yanggu and his two sons at the same time caused Lady Jue Luo's expression to change.
In fact, they had made two preparations: if their eldest daughter could not marry into the Fourth Prince's mansion, they would marry her to Saito to become the eldest daughter-in-law.
"Father and Ah Hun are here?" Qingyan regained her senses, and her eyes instantly lit up.
As soon as he finished speaking, Fei Yanggu and his two sons entered. They first looked at Qingyan, whose complexion was slightly better, but still showed signs of fatigue. Then, seeing Jue Luo's helpless and angry expression, they understood the general situation.
After bowing, Qingyan spoke first: "Father, Ah Hun, Mother has been used. The Jue Luo clan is truly despicable!"
After saying that, Qingyan waved her little paws twice. This pregnancy-preserving tea was a secret recipe collected by Jue Luo Shi and specially prepared for Xiao Guai.
Fei Yanggu was taken aback. Had his daughter's relationship with the Jue Luo clan improved again?
He sniffed the air and detected a faint scent of herbal tea for preventing miscarriage.
This must be the Jue Luo family's secret recipe. Back when Xiao Guai was still unborn, the Jue Luo family had been using this pregnancy-preserving tea.
Saito and Eshuo also smelled it; their mother had actually given the secret recipe to Qingyan.
"Why are you two here?" Saito asked, puzzled. These two illegitimate daughters were not favored in the Jue Luo family mansion, so why were they suddenly appearing in front of their mother?
The concubine's daughters had been kneeling for quite some time, and their words came out in fits and starts. They understood that if they didn't tell the truth, they would be blamed for framing the imperial heir. In the end, they even revealed that they had overheard the conversation between the head of the Gioro clan and the Gioro clan's wife.
Saito was disgusted. He had disliked Ha Yihu since he was a child. If Xiao Guai was schemed against by Lady Jue Luo, she would definitely distance herself from her own family.
“Mother!” Saito turned to look at Jue Luo Shi. Jue Luo Shi was aware that Kangxi was planning to arrange a marriage between Saito and Eshuo.
"Your marriage is not even something your father can decide, let alone me!" Jue Luo sneered. Her family only considered her a member of the Jue Luo clan when they were scheming against her.
For a moment, Lady Jue Luo was stunned. They had spoken to her several times, but she had not given her consent. It turned out that they could not make decisions about Sai Tuo's marriage.
Lady Jue Luo believed they had been tricked.
"You actually concealed such important information! Hayihu was exempted from the election just because of Saito. How are you going to take responsibility!" Lady Jueluo knew that Yinzhi definitely didn't think much of Hayihu, so she directly shifted all the blame onto Lady Jueluo.
As soon as he finished speaking, Qingyan frowned. His three children believed that Jue Luo was targeting her maternal family. If Jue Luo did not come to her senses after being hurt time and time again, they would be helpless.
"Madam Jue Luo, are you targeting Ah Hun for the exemption from the election?" Qingyan put down her teacup and spoke coldly.
Lady Jue Luo was so arrogant. The words spoken by the two concubine daughters should not be false. The role of the legitimate daughter was probably to enter the prince's residence.
"Little darling, sit down!" Yin said quickly as he saw Qingyan stand up.
She sat down obediently, and it was clear to everyone that the legitimate daughter was there for Yin.
Does Lady Jue Luo think everyone is a fool?
"Is the princes' backyard enough?" Yin asked rhetorically.
Lady Jue Luo's eyes immediately lit up. Among the princes before the Fourth Prince, there was also the Crown Prince.
A single sentence changed the atmosphere in the hall. Jue Luo Shi realized her sister-in-law's thoughts and her mood instantly soured. The children were creating their own future, which was very different from her nephews from her maternal family.
"Yes!" Lady Jue Luo replied.
It was rare for Yin to agree, and Qingyan turned to look at him.
"Fourth Prince, no need!" Qingyan understood that Ha Yihu had not gone through the imperial selection process and had entered the prince's residence, so his status was not high. In addition, his involvement with Yin would also deplete Yin's connections.
Yin shook his head, saying that this matter was not difficult to handle.
"I will talk to my second brother tomorrow!" The Crown Prince is fond of beautiful women, and Ha Yihu's appearance is exactly what he likes now. Concubine Li Jia has recently crossed Kangxi's bottom line, and someone needs to replace her.
"Fourth Master Xie, these two are extremely malicious towards Qingyan's offspring. We dare not have anything to do with them." Lady Jueluo was overjoyed to know that her daughter was going to enter the Eastern Palace.
After hearing this, Yin waved to Su Peisheng, telling him to take the two illegitimate daughters away.
After seeing off Madam Jue Luo, Fei Yanggu was somewhat annoyed, while Madam Jue Luo remained stunned in her seat.
"Fourth Master, this... once Jue Luo Shi is attached, she can't be shaken off!" Fei Yanggu couldn't care less about Jue Luo Shi's presence and spoke out directly.
“Father-in-law, it’s alright. The Emperor is looking for someone to replace Consort Li Jia. Ha Yi’s appearance is just in time. Mother-in-law was being used. If Xiao Guai hadn’t used Mother-in-law’s pregnancy-preserving tea, she might not have been able to settle down so quickly!” Yin said, following Qing Yan’s words.
Fei Yanggu was relieved. His wife hadn't foolishly sided with her own family, and they should support the Fourth Prince's decision even more.
"Send it to Yuqing Palace?" Jue Luo asked directly after regaining her composure.
"Um."
"No, Xiao Guai can't keep being suppressed by Ha Yi Hu!" Jue Luo Shi didn't want her daughter to be suppressed by her niece all the time, even having to pay her respects to Ha Yi Hu when entering the palace.
Yin smiled slightly and said, "Mother-in-law, my little darling is the primary consort!"
Except for the Crown Princess, who needs to perform the formalities at the banquet, the concubines do not need to perform the formalities.
As soon as she finished speaking, Jue Luo felt relieved, knowing that her niece could not surpass her daughter.
"You're meddling in other people's business!" Fei Yanggu's tone was not good. Yin had no choice but to send Ha Yihu to Yuqing Palace because it was related to the trouble caused by the Jue Luo clan.
Saito and Eshuo were oblivious to the matter; they couldn't enter the palace, and the women of Yuqing Palace generally couldn't leave.
"My sister-in-law will definitely go back and talk nonsense to my brother!" Jue Luo Shi felt helpless. She couldn't see her family again, otherwise it would cause a lot of problems for the children.
"Mother, you should all stay and have a reunion dinner together!" Qingyan said.
Before giving birth, Qingyan had a wish: to be able to dine with her father and mother.
She used to complain about the Jue Luo clan, but after becoming a mother, many things changed. She was no longer as extreme as before, and her emotions became more and more moderate.
"Okay!" Fei Yanggu readily agreed. Xiao Guai was probably about to give birth, and it would be good for her to be in a good mood. (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote for it on Qidian. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please go to m.qidian.com to read.)
