Yuan Jiahe's eyes heated up, and her heart was filled with emotion. She smiled and said with twinkling eyes, "Thank you, concubine."
"Okay, let's go."
Concubine Yan continued to walk forward while holding her daughter's hand, when she saw Cai He, the eldest maid beside her, walking over in a hurry, curtsying to her and then whispering in her ear.
Concubine Yan's expression changed after hearing this: "Seriously?"
Caihe nodded: "The person who announced the funeral hasn't left yet."
Concubine Yan frowned and waved her hand to ask Caihe to step back.
Yuan Jiahe on the side asked curiously: "Mother, concubine, what happened? What kind of mourner?"
Concubine Yan frowned and said in a somewhat regretful tone: "Someone from the General's Mansion came to announce the funeral, saying that the eldest daughter of the Mu family, Mu Xuechu, died last night."
"What?"
Yuan Jiahe exclaimed, her eyes widened and she asked stammering: "Yan Yan's aunt? She...why is she not there?"
Concubine Yan said: "It was said that a piece of white silk hung her to death."
Yuan Jiahe covered his mouth and was startled for a while before he realized what he was doing and said hurriedly: "Concubine, I'm going to see Yan Yan." After saying that, he turned around and ran away.
...
In Yuan Hao's room, Shen Wanyue received the order and was kneeling on the ground to thank her.
She had been living on tenterhooks this day. Ever since her father Shen Chi assassinated the emperor and was executed yesterday, she had been imprisoned.
She thought that she would definitely die, but who would have thought that His Majesty would decree to make her a princess and also give her the title of Kang Le.
It can be seen that His Majesty did not blame her for her father Shen Chi.
In fact, she did not expect that her father would do such a thing. During the time she was imprisoned, in addition to the fear in her heart, she could always think of Shen Chi's death and what he said.
She doesn't know whether to believe it or not?
But whether you believe it or not, from now on she is His Majesty's nominal adopted daughter. This Princess Kangle of Beichen will enjoy endless glory and wealth.
Yuan Hao looked at the person kneeling on the ground and couldn't help feeling a little guilty. If it wasn't for Mu Rufeng, he wouldn't have made a big mistake and harmed his daughter.
He took a deep breath and said, "Get up."
Shen Wanyue stood up, her little face was pale and bloodless, and she looked so frail and pitiful.
Yuan Hao asked someone to show her where to sit, and then asked: "Do you know your life experience?"
Shen Wanyue lowered her eyes and replied: "I know, mother has already told me."
"oh?"
Yuan Hao raised his eyebrows and asked curiously: "What did she tell you?"
Shen Wanyue said cautiously: "My mother said that my biological father was not Shen Chi, but His Majesty. She and His Majesty were in love back then, but my uncle didn't want to send my mother to the palace, so he married her to Shen Chi.
In fact, my mother has been estranged from him since she married Shen Chi. They often quarreled and lived in separate beds.
I was young and didn't understand at the time, but now I know that the person in my mother's heart has always been His Majesty, and she has never loved Shen Chi, so she reconciled with him."
Yuan Hao was a little surprised when he heard what she said, but he had to say that these words pleased him: "Did your mother really say that?"
Shen Wanyue's heart trembled, and she knelt on the ground again: "Wanyue didn't dare to lie, my mother did tell me so."
