Chapter 1860 The Prime Minister’s Wife Probes Again
Yue'er felt a little sleepy after drinking the medicine. After Yue'er fell asleep, the Prime Minister's wife returned to the yard and simply changed her clothes, then went to Zhao's house.
Based on her understanding of Mr. Zhao, she knew that Mr. Zhao would never spread the word about what happened back then. What’s more, Mrs. Zhao would not deliberately tell Mr. Zhao about this matter. She was just worried that Princess Pluto was determined to investigate the matter and investigate it clearly.
Only then did the incident spread.
She knew very well that what was spread this time was not a rumor at all, Yue'er was indeed her Qing'er. But in order to protect the Zhao family and the Prime Minister's Mansion, she could only swallow her anger.
She didn't dare to go to Princess Pluto for fear that things would get serious, so she first went to Zhao's house to meet Mr. Zhao. She knew that Princess Pluto should do this to warn Yue'er, and she wanted to tell Princess Pluto through Mr. Zhao,
Yue'er won't cause trouble anymore.
This time the Prime Minister's wife's attitude took a 180-degree turn. Madam Zhao didn't know what kind of medicine the Prime Minister's wife was selling in her gourd. Seeing that she didn't say anything and just drank tea, she simply picked up a teacup and drank it too.
Tea.
Mrs. Zhao is impatient. The Prime Minister's wife thought that Mrs. Zhao would be the first to speak. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Zhao did not speak either, so she had to speak first: "Sister-in-law, I want to meet Bin'er when I come here today."
"He just came back from the Prime Minister's Mansion. Didn't you see him?" Mrs. Zhao asked.
"I saw him when I was leaving. He left in a hurry without saying a few words," said the Prime Minister's wife.
"So that's it, mama, go to the young master's yard, ask him to come over, and say that aunt is here." Mrs. Zhao said.
"Yes, ma'am," said the nanny.
About a quarter of an hour after arriving, Mr. Zhao came over with his aunt. Mr. Zhao was very puzzled along the way. If his aunt had something wrong, why he didn't ask just now and suddenly rushed to the house to look for him. It was indeed strange.
Seeing the Prime Minister's wife, Mr. Zhao respectfully said: "Auntie."
"Bin'er, my aunt was a little anxious just now. Don't take what she said to heart." said the Prime Minister's wife.
Mrs. Zhao immediately knew that she must have said some unpleasant words after meeting Bin'er just now. However, how could she come to Zhao's house to apologize to Bin'er for no reason?
"What are you planning again?" Mrs. Zhao asked.
"Sister-in-law, I have no plans. I just have something urgent to see Bin'er," said the Prime Minister's wife.
"Mother, please go in and have a rest first. My aunt must be in an emergency before she comes here," Mr. Zhao said.
Mrs. Zhao looked at the Prime Minister's wife, but did not embarrass her. She gave her a look and went into the inner room to rest.
After Mrs. Zhao left, Mr. Zhao said, "Auntie, why are you here in such a hurry?"
"You went to the Prime Minister's Mansion just to warn Yue'er not to disturb the daughter of the Hou Mansion, right?" the Prime Minister's wife asked.
"It seems that Yue'er has told Auntie, so I don't have to hide it anymore. Yes, I went to the Prime Minister's Mansion today just to warn Yueer. Auntie knows better than me how important a girl's reputation is, and I am doing this for my cousin.
Thinking about it. She is already engaged and will get married in February next year. But if Prince Rong’s palace knows about this, will Yue’er still marry the crown prince smoothly?” Mr. Zhao said.
The Prime Minister's wife was naturally worried, but fortunately, Yue'er was trying her best and was pregnant. In the future, even if Prince Rong's palace opposed it, the prince would marry Yue'er.
But if this matter causes a storm in the city, it will indeed damage Yue'er's reputation.
"Since you were little, you have only been around Yue'er. Suddenly you became indifferent to Yue'er, which made Yue'er a little sad. She has been in a bad mood these past few days and is very depressed. I heard that you found Miss Hou Mansion, so she
I guess your relationship with that girl is unusual. I know what she did was wrong, and she regretted it afterwards. But I didn’t expect that rumors about her would spread in Beijing the next day. Not many people knew what happened back then, so I
I thought it was my sister-in-law who spread the news. Then I thought about it carefully. My sister-in-law's thoughts were all on the Zhao family. How could she do something that would harm the Zhao family? Just now Yue'er told me the whole thing. I think it was Miss Hou Mansion who did it.
But Yue'er told me that it was impossible for Miss Houfu to know what happened back then. I heard that you came here specifically to warn Yue'er, so I thought you must know about it, so I
I came here in a hurry." Mrs. Prime Minister said.
"What does Auntie want to know?" Mr. Zhao asked.
"Who spread the rumor?" asked the Prime Minister's wife.
"What does Auntie want to do? In fact, as long as Yue'er behaves herself, there will be no more rumors about Yue'er." Mr. Zhao said.
"So this is a warning to Yue'er? However, what happened back then had nothing to do with Yue'er, so why do you bite Yue'er and refuse to let her go?" said the Prime Minister's wife.
"No outsider knows what happened back then, unless someone has the intention to investigate. In fact, my aunt should have guessed who is investigating this matter, and who has such great ability to turn rumors into Yue'er. What she means is,
To give face to the Prime Minister, so this time I just warned Yue'er, and if Yue'er does it again next time, she will go directly to the Prime Minister's Mansion to arrest people." Mr. Zhao said.
"Is it the Palace of Hades?" the Prime Minister's wife asked with doubts.
"Auntie, I'd better say it again. As long as you tell Yue'er not to cause trouble, the same thing won't happen." Mr. Zhao said.
After listening to Mr. Zhao's words, the Prime Minister's wife already understood that this matter was related to the Pluto Palace. Perhaps as Mr. Zhao said, the Pluto Princess just wanted to warn Yue'er and had no intention of pursuing the matter.
Although this is just a family matter in the Prime Minister's Palace, it will always bring bad reputation to Yue'er if word spreads. There has been no movement from Prince Rong's Palace. If it happens again, Prince Rong's Palace will definitely reject this marriage.
So, she said: "Auntie understands that you reminded her specifically for Yue'er's sake. I know you have good intentions. After you came back from Licheng, you never bothered Yue'er again. The reason why Yue'er is so willful
, it is also because of your sudden change that she is not used to it. Auntie, seeing how much you care about Miss Houfu, does it mean you like her?"
Mr. Zhao smiled and said, "Auntie, what if you like me for my virtue?"
"Since you like her, work hard for her. Now that His Majesty appreciates you, I believe that the Marquis will not refuse. Of course, if there are any difficulties in the Marquis' mansion, you can tell my aunt and she will definitely make the decision for you." Mrs. Prime Minister said.
"Okay, I will try." Mr. Zhao scratched his head and said.
The Prime Minister's wife did not stay long, and after talking to Mr. Zhao for a few more words, she left the Zhao family. She did not tell Mr. Zhao that Yue'er was pregnant. Because the child in Yue'er's belly was the final trump card. At this time,
Don't let anyone know.
After returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion, she went directly to Yue'er's yard. For the sake of the child in her belly, she must remind Yue'er not to cause trouble during this period.
If there is any unfavorable news about her, even if Prince Rong's palace agrees to the marriage, the princess will still make things difficult for her if she comes to marry her.
"Yue'er, I have clarified this matter. You guessed it right. Miss Houfu did not do this. However, you must learn to restrain yourself and never cause trouble again. For the sake of the child in your belly, you
You also have to be patient." The Prime Minister's wife said.
"So she is really the Princess of Hades?" Yue'er asked.
"Although Bin'er didn't say it directly, it's already obvious. Yue'er, mother knows that you have always been smart, and you know better than anyone else what's more important than others. The most important thing now is the safety of the fetus, don't pay too much attention to other things.
” said the Prime Minister’s wife.
"I understand what mother means, and the previous reluctance doesn't matter anymore. You're right, you can't lose the big for the small. For Miss Houfu, if you miss the opportunity to marry the prince, it's not worth the loss." Yue'er
said.
"Yue'er, I'm afraid Bin'er and Miss Houfu are not in love with each other. I think he is just being sentimental," said the Prime Minister's wife.
"Why does mother think so?" Yue'er asked.
"Just now in the Zhao Mansion, I deliberately tested Bin'er, but Bin'er seemed a little reluctant to mention it. I felt that maybe he had committed another problem. But, how could An Linghou agree to marry his daughter to him?" Mrs. Prime Minister
said.
"Actually, even if the two of them are in love, An Linghou may not agree to the marriage. Even if An Linghou agrees, I can still find a way to make him refuse," Yue'er said.
After hearing what Yue'er said, the Prime Minister's wife hurriedly said: "Yue'er, didn't we agree not to worry about it?
These things? We all know that An Linghou will not agree easily. Besides, if your cousin can marry Miss Houfu, it will also be helpful to the Zhao family. Why do you stop him?"
The Prime Minister's wife was frightened by Yue'er's words. If she offended Princess Pluto, she didn't know what would happen next time. What she was most worried about was not Yue'er's affairs, but her own affairs. She always felt something
Nothing can be hidden from Princess Pluto. As long as you don't offend her, you should be fine.
Therefore, she hoped that Yue'er would restrain himself so as not to harm innocent people.
"Mom, if my cousin goes to Miss Hou Mansion, will the Zhao family continue to rely on the Prime Minister's Mansion?" Yue'er said.
Yue'er's words reminded her that the Zhao family has always been attached to the Prime Minister's Mansion. It was precisely because of this that her mother married her to the master. If the Zhao family had the backing of the Anling Houfu, it would be of no benefit to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
However, just now Bin'er kindly reminded himself that if he really offended Princess Pluto, there would be no good end. Fortunately, Anling Houfu would not agree to their marriage, so they didn't have to worry at all.
"Yue'er, don't be anxious about this matter now. After all, Bin'er hasn't proposed marriage to the Anling Marquis yet," said the Prime Minister's wife.
"Mother, if you wait until the Zhao family goes to propose marriage, it will be too late. My cousin is self-aware and will not go to the Hou Mansion to propose marriage at all. However, he will definitely test the wishes of Miss Hou Mansion, and naturally he will ask for An Linghou.
By the time he has settled An Linghou, the marriage proposal will probably be just a show." Yue'er said.
"Why would An Linghou agree? You also know how ridiculous your cousin has been before. Wouldn't the Marquis know about it? In this case, I don't think the Marquis will give your cousin a chance." Mrs. Prime Minister said.
"Mother, you are so naive. Now that my cousin is appreciated by His Majesty, even if the Marquis knows that my cousin is ridiculous, it was all in the past. At least my cousin did something big in Licheng and has been keeping his peace since he came back.
Even if Mr. Hou is not satisfied with his cousin's past, it is all in the past, so why should he care about it?" Yue'er said.
"What do you mean, An Linghou will agree to this marriage in the end?" said the Prime Minister's wife.
"Yes, not only will I not object, I will even be very satisfied with my cousin." Yue'er said.
