It is obvious that with her wisdom and her knowledge of the future, she can lend a helping hand to Wuhejialou, help him to restore his throne, and find her place in the future Dahao.

By then, she could control her own destiny; by then, it would no longer matter whether she was a legitimate daughter or a concubine's daughter, and others would see her as Chu Qianhuang, not the eldest daughter of the Yongding Marquis's Mansion! In desperation, she could only come back.

Chu Yunmu pouted, "Big sister, don't you have a day off every ten days? Why are you leaving right after you come back?"

Chu Qianhuang said casually: "I suddenly thought of something else."

As he spoke, Chu Qianhuang's eyebrows became even colder, with a hint of alienation.

As soon as she came back, she knew she was wrong and she shouldn't have come back.

She couldn't get any information from the Dowager Lady at all, and the Dowager Lady didn't even know that the Second Prince had been assigned an assignment.

At that moment, Chu Qianhuang felt as if a bucket of cold water was poured on her, and her whole body felt cold.

She realized that the lady had been completely sidelined. Although she seemed free, it was actually no different from being "confined". Her eyes and ears had been blocked, which meant she was useless.

Chu Qianhuang held Chu Yunmu's hand with a little force, then turned around and looked in the direction of Rongfu Hall.

The Yongding Marquis Mansion has now become a one-man show for Shen. No, it should be said that since the moment her background was revealed, there was no place for her here.

Chu Yunmu frowned and shouted, "Big sister, you hold me so...tightly."

He originally wanted to say that Chu Qianhuang’s grip hurt him, but when he thought that he was a real man, he changed the word “painful” to “tight”.

Chu Qianhuang quickly let go of her hand and softened her voice and asked, "Brother Mu, did I hurt you?"

"No, no." Chu Yunmu smiled generously, "Look, big sister, have I grown taller? I'm going to be six soon. Have you thought of a birthday gift for me?"

He held his chin high and was almost standing on tiptoe.

Chu Yunmu was a chatterbox, and once he got excited, he would talk nonstop. Chu Qianhuang responded perfunctorily, but she felt more and more that her younger brother was too young and could not handle such a big responsibility. He was just the legitimate son.

"Don't worry, I will prepare a birthday gift for you that suits your taste." Chu Qianhuang responded casually, feeling a little impatient.

Alas, she was in a difficult situation in the palace and had to rely on herself...

She was anxious and said quickly, "Brother Mu, I have something urgent to do. I'm leaving first and will come back to see you next time."

Before Chu Yunmu could react, she had already supported Baoqin's hand and got into the carriage.

She had to think carefully about what to do next. She didn't find out anything in the Marquis's Mansion today, and she definitely couldn't tell the Queen the truth when she returned.

Then, what should she say to the Queen so that she can make her feel that she is still useful and let her stay in the palace...

Chu Qianhuang's carriage slowly drove out of the corner gate of the Marquis' Mansion. Chu Yunmu stood there, tilting his head to look at the carriage, and muttered softly: "Big sister is weird..."

The black horse happened to snort, and Chu Yunmu was amused. He looked up at his new favorite horse and said, "You think so too, right?"

Chu Yunmu was young and had a childish mentality, so as soon as the corner door was closed, he put it down and continued to run towards the inner courtyard, anxious to show off to Shen.

When he rushed into the main hall of the main courtyard, he happened to pass by a little maid who looked familiar, but he couldn't remember who the other person was for a moment, so he was welcomed into the house by the head maid Dongmei.

"Mom, my sister and brother-in-law took my brother and me to Cuixia Mountain for fun today!"

"My brother-in-law also gave my eldest brother and me a horse each, and let us choose our own."

“…”

Chu Yunmu talked about whatever he thought of. He talked about Chu Yunyi riding alone in a carriage, what he saw and heard along the way, and also about how he ran into Chu Qianhuang on his way back home.

"Mom, I feel like my elder sister isn't very happy." Chu Yunmu sighed like an adult while eating the jade-white lotus root flour cake, "But my elder sister seems to be unhappy all the time lately."

Seeing Chu Yunmu's mouth full of food, with crumbs still leaking out, Shen used a handkerchief to wipe his mouth in a funny way, "Let's talk after you finish eating."

Chu Yunmu's mouth puffed up, he smiled ingratiatingly, and quickly concentrated on eating the water chestnut flour cake.

Shen's eyes flickered.

Of course, Shen had heard about Chu Qianhuang's return. Although she had never met Chu Qianhuang, she had the final say in the Marquis's mansion. The maid in Rongfu Hall had reported everything Chu Qianhuang and the Madam had said.

The little maid had just finished reporting before Chu Yunmu came in.

Shen rubbed her brows. She knew that Chu Qianhuang came back to the Marquis' Mansion for no reason.

Chu Yunmu finally finished eating the Lingfen Cake and moistened his throat with tea. "Mom, my brother-in-law is so nice. He promised to take me to Fengtai Daying in a few days."

Chu Yunmu puffed out his chest, feeling that he was indeed everyone’s most beloved Brother Mu, and everyone liked him!

The little guy's eyes turned into crescent moons when he smiled. When he smiled, he looked about 40% like Chu Qianchen.

Shen couldn't help but raise her hand to rub his fluffy head, but Chu Yunmu quickly dodged it. His expression clearly said, Mom, you can't touch my head!

Shen was amused by him and couldn't help laughing, "You, your brother-in-law loves everyone in your house!"

Yes, Prince Chen is so indulgent to this kid that he even takes care of Chu Yunyi. That can only mean that he loves the boy so much that he loves his dog too.

Prince Chen values ​​his sister Chen'er, so even people related to Sister Chen'er are protected under his wings.

As long as Sister Chen is doing well, that's enough.

Shen focused her thoughts on Chu Qianchen, put Chu Qianhuang's matter behind her, and stopped thinking about it.

What else could she not understand about Chu Lingxiao?

Some people are grateful for a little bit of money and grudge against a little bit of money. They are very petty and cold-hearted.

His pair of clear black and white eyes stared at Shen's eyes expectantly.

He felt that as long as he studied hard, he didn't have to wait until the clan school was closed to go, right? Shen was amused and pretended to be in deep thought.

Chu Yunmu became anxious, and quickly lifted his mother's hand and placed it on top of his head, as if to "let her stroke my hair."

Shen touched her son's head twice and asked, "How about tomorrow?"

"..." Chu Yunmu was shocked, wondering if he had heard it wrong, or if his mother had made a mistake. He would not go against his good fortune, and nodded quickly: "Okay, okay!"

Shen smiled even more deeply, and continued, "After school tomorrow, go to the palace to find your second sister, and tell her that your eldest sister has come back, and say that your second sister seems to have come for the matter of the second prince."

Although she didn't know what Chu Qianhuang wanted to find out or what her intentions were, it was definitely not a good thing for her to make this trip.

The situation in the court is so chaotic now, and the Shen family doesn't want the Chu family to become a stumbling block for Chu Qianchen.

"Cousin Zhao?" Chu Yunmu blinked his big eyes. He didn't understand what he heard, but it didn't affect his good mood.

"Leave it to me." He patted his chest.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Chu Yunmu got the assignment from Shen. At noon the next day, he went to Prince Chen's Mansion excitedly and repeated Shen's words to Chu Qianchen word for word.

Finally, he added, "When I walked in yesterday evening, I happened to see my eldest sister leaving. I felt that she was not very happy. She left without saying a few words to me."

Chu Qianchen responded casually, and seeing that his eyes were fixed on the black cat Yueying in her arms, she handed him a fist-sized rattan ball.

Chu Yunmu threw the vine ball to the ground and it rolled out. The originally lazy cat was immediately attracted to it. It kicked its hind legs, jumped off Chu Qianchen's knees and chased the ball.

Chu Qianchen followed the cat with a thoughtful gaze as the cat chased the ball.

Chu Qianhuang was like a cat chasing a ball. She was definitely not interested in the Second Prince's job for no reason, unless it was profitable.

The sepak takraw ball rolled around, and as the black cat chased it, it rolled to Chu Yunmu's feet. Chu Yunmu stepped on the sepak takraw ball with evil intentions.

The black cat stretched out its claws and kept pulling at the rattan ball under his feet, but the rattan ball didn't move at all.

Jiang Yuan looked at this scene, his eyes twitched silently, and thought: No wonder Yueying disdains to play with naughty kids.

Chu Qianchen didn't move either, his thoughts were racing.

The only thing that would affect Chu Qianhuang's mood was the marriage between Da Qi and Nan Hao. Chu Qianhuang wanted to go to Nan Hao, and the only people who could interfere with her and prevent her from going to Nan Hao were the Third Princess and -

Queen.

Therefore, it should be the Queen's intention for Chu Qianhuang to go to the Marquis' Mansion to inquire about the news.

The queen was anxious.

Since the emperor ascended the throne, the prince's position has been stable. Over the years, the queen has been living a happy life, and even the Queen Mother Yin has to avoid his limelight. But now that the emperor has suddenly turned against her, the queen may not have full confidence anymore. The queen is also afraid that the emperor will depose the prince.

“Meow!”

Seeing the black cat baring its teeth and flaring its tail, Chu Yunmu was afraid of offending the cat, so he quickly let go of his foot and kicked the rattan ball lightly, and the rattan ball rolled out again.

The black cat continued to chase the ball happily, not even bothering to look at Chu Yunmu.

Chu Qianchen picked up a rose candied fruit and ate it. He planned to mention it to Gu Jue later, but he didn't want to think about it anymore. Anyway, no matter what happened between the Queen and the Prince, even if the Prince was replaced by someone else, it was none of their business.

For Chu Qianchen, what she is concerned about now is how to find an excuse to go back to the palace. Now that the prince is back, she has to tell the queen mother in person that the prince is fine so that she won't worry.

The sepak takraw ball rolled to Chu Qianchen's feet again. Chu Qianchen picked up the ball with the tip of his shoe and hooked it upwards. The sepak takraw ball drew a small arc in the air, which made the black cat very happy. It meowed excitedly, kicked off with its hind paws, and leaped up, with an elegant and beautiful posture in the air.

Not only the cat was excited, but the kid was also very excited and asked, "Sister, can you play Cuju?"

Chu Qianchen was thinking about whether to use the matter of the Second Prince as a pretext to pass a card to the palace. She said "hmm" absentmindedly and thought that this idea should be worth a try.

Chu Yunmu's eyes lit up instantly, and he stretched out his little hand to pinch his sister's sleeve, but before he could touch her sleeve, Nanny Cai came and reported, "Princess, Nanny Shan from the Queen's side wants to see you. She is here to deliver a letter on behalf of the Queen."

Chu Qianchen raised his eyebrows. This was probably what it meant when someone gave him a pillow just because he was sleepy.

Of course you have to meet people.

So, not long after, Nanny Cai personally brought Nanny Shan to Xuanwei Hall.

Nanny Shan was wearing a lake green jacket embroidered with a crane holding a fairy grass. She had a smile on her lips, her posture was straight, and her steps were as if measured with a ruler, each one was exactly the same.

"Greetings, Princess." Nanny Shan knelt down to greet Chu Qianchen with a polite smile on her face, without any trace of her usual arrogance.

Nanny Shan handed the bright yellow gold-sprinkled invitation in her hands to Chu Qianchen who was sitting at the head of the table, "The Queen invites you, Princess, to the palace for a flower-viewing banquet."

Flower viewing banquet? Chu Qianchen took the invitation and was a little speechless: It was the beginning of winter yesterday, how could there be a flower viewing banquet now! Nanny Shan smiled and continued, "The Queen has also invited the princesses and princesses of the royal family and the women of the nobles and court officials. It will definitely be very lively."

Chu Qianchen opened the post, casually glanced at the few lines of text on it, and sighed: "Her Royal Highness the Third Princess is about to leave, right? No wonder the Queen is reluctant to let her go, it would be nice to have some fun..."

Nanny Shan was also a little embarrassed. How could she not know that the time for the flower-viewing banquet was wrong? If it were a little later, they could enjoy the plum blossoms in the Imperial Garden. But what was there to enjoy at this time?

Since Princess Chen was thinking of the Third Princess, she also echoed a few words: "Yes, every time the Queen thinks of the Third Princess, she feels distressed and reluctant to let her go."

Her attitude was very warm and attentive, almost to the point of fawning.

Chu Qianchen also saw it, but she remained calm. She closed the note and handed it to Amber, indicating that she accepted it.
