General Zhongyong's wife couldn't help but feel relieved. She took Wan Liuyue's hand and said, "Thank goodness I listened to you and didn't insist on waiting. Otherwise, your father wouldn't be home, and we..."
Wan Liuyue said helplessly: "It's better that Dad is not at home. If he is at home, he will go to the emperor to beg for mercy and spend money to redeem us two. Wouldn't that be even more..."
Wan Liuyue always felt that since his sister came back, his mother's thinking was not as thoughtful as before.
After she reminded him, General Zhongyong's wife finally realized what was happening.
Yes, it is so shameful to let these people beg the emperor!
She whispered, "The Emperor truly dotes on the little princess. He takes time out of his busy schedule to take care of her affairs."
"So we must be more cautious when it comes to the little princess in the future. We must not make any mistakes. Mother, you should know that if the emperor favors one of his sons alone, it may cause discord among the other princes. But if he favors the little princess, there will be no such problem at all."
"Your Majesty can dote on her however he wants. Besides, the little princess is indeed capable. If you had such a capable niece, wouldn't you be able to not dote on her?"
The wife of General Zhongyong finally took Wan Liuyue's words to heart.
Not to mention that the wife of General Zhongyong had to ask to see the queen several times before she finally saw her. After seeing her, the queen directly told the wife of General Zhongyong that Wan Xiyue was taken away by a mysterious man, and they are now looking for that mysterious man everywhere. That mysterious man was the one who helped King Ping and others escape from prison.
After the heads of each household learned of the emperor's arrangements, they had no choice but to shamelessly beg the emperor to release the people and pay the money.
But after that, he never dared to come to block Wei Fu again.
But since they couldn't stop Wei Fu, the families didn't give up.
Even though the emperor said in the court that Prince Ping was dead and his previous arrangements could no longer harm anyone, every household always felt that some of their children and grandchildren were Prince Ping's children, and they always felt that they had a guilty conscience, so they really couldn't feel at ease unless they asked Wei Fu to go and check on them.
So someone cleverly decided to build a good relationship with Princess Yahe first. If they could build a good relationship with Princess Yahe, Wei Fu would be Princess Yahe's daughter, and Princess Yahe could ask Wei Fu to help them privately, so there would be no problem, right?
Even though Princess Yahe was of noble status, many people did not like her because she was divorced from Marquis Zhenbei and his family was gone. Especially the old ladies in each household strictly forbade their wives to have any contact with Princess Yahe.
He was worried that his daughter-in-law would become a rebellious person like Princess Yahe.
Although it was wrong for Marquis Zhenbei to beat Princess Yahe, as a woman, if you don't know how to please your husband, that is a failure for you. As a woman, if you allow your natal family to bully your husband's family like this and even have them wiped out, you deserve the cruelty.
So even if Princess Yahe set up her own residence and lived outside, no one would hang out with her, but Princess Yahe herself didn't care.
Jin Chan looked at the invitations and visiting cards that were handed to him one after another, and couldn't help but pout and said, "Princess, these people are too snobbish."
Princess Yahe smiled nonchalantly, "Don't be angry. It's normal for them to be like this. You're of no use to them at all. Why would they spend their time and energy trying to curry your favor?"
Jin Chan also understood this logic, but he still felt it was not worth it to stand up for his own princess.
Princess Yahe looked at the invitations and visiting cards and said, "Go and answer them all! Just say that I'm a divorced woman and it's not easy for me to go out."
Jin Chan pouted and went out to make arrangements in a depressed manner.
After a while, Jin Chan came over again and said, "Princess, please introduce the eldest lady of our family. Tan is outside seeking to see her."
Princess Yahe took a moment to react before she remembered who Madam Rong was. She sighed and said, "She's a pitiful person, too. Please invite her in!"
After Mrs. Rong divorced and returned home, she lived with her natal family.
Yes, once a woman gets married, even if she gets divorced and then goes back, that is still her parents’ home.
The Tan family was also a wealthy and powerful family with a large population. She knew why Tan came to visit, but these matters should clearly be handled by someone from the Tan family. However, now it was the Tan family that came forward, which was enough to show that after Tan divorced and returned home, her life was not as easy as the outside world saw.
At that time, the people of the Tan family stood up to seek justice, probably for the sake of the Tan family's face.
Although Tan had left the Rong family, her daughter was dead after all, and the pain of losing her daughter was forever engraved in her heart. Therefore, Tan became very thin. Although she still looked relatively energetic, it was obvious that she was forcing herself to be energetic.
After greeting Princess Yahe, she said with great shame, "Princess, you probably understand why I came here. I shouldn't have bothered you, but I was truly worried that something similar to what happened to the Rong family might happen to my father and brother's family, so I had the audacity to come."
There is untold bitterness in the home of father and brother.
Princess Yahe said, "I can't make the decision for Fu'er. I let you in because I'm worried you'll be in trouble, so..."
Tan said gratefully, "Thank you for your compassion, Your Highness. May I..."
Princess Yahe interrupted Tan's unspoken words, nodded slightly, and then said, "If you like, you can come visit me often in the future."
She knew that what Tan wanted to ask was whether she could stay a little longer. If she came in and said one word and then left immediately, she might be misunderstood as offending her.
Tan knelt down gratefully to thank Princess Yahe, and felt her eyes moist. She received rare respect and consideration from Princess Yahe.
She originally thought that her tears had dried up...
Princess Yahe asked Jin Chan to help her up.
There are some differences between girls from ordinary families and princesses. Whether a princess gets married or divorced and returns home, she can be buried in the imperial mausoleum and enjoy incense and offerings.
But girls from ordinary families are buried in their husband's family after they get married. If they are not married, they are not allowed to be buried in the ancestral tomb. If they are married or divorced, they are also not allowed to be buried in the ancestral tomb.
The Tan family was so supportive of Tan's divorce at that time, but now it seems that they are just worried about being implicated by the Rong family.
After Tan left, Wei Fu ran in from outside. She looked at Ba Ya and the princess and asked doubtfully, "Mother, doesn't that aunt's family dislike her?"
She had just come to find Princess Yahe, but seeing that Princess Yahe was entertaining guests, she did not come in. She waited until Tan left before coming in.
Princess Yahe touched Wei Fu's head and told her everything. She had never treated Wei Fu as a child in these matters. In fact, many times she felt that Wei Fu saw many things more clearly than adults.
