More than half a year in the north has completely changed the steady, elegant, and broad-minded noble girl Yunyang in the past, and now she will take revenge!

"Yunyang, although the three words I'm sorry are very pale, I still have to say it again, I'm sorry! It's all because I, the elder brother, didn't teach Roujia well, which led her astray and caused you great damage! It's me who can't live with you! Gu Mingyue owed.

Yun Yang immediately returned the salute and said, "Sixth cousin, don't mind, that matter has nothing to do with you!" I'm learning the whip method for the first time, and I don't know if she hurts the vital point, so you can take her back to the palace! โ€

She hated Gu Roujia, the Empress Yongli and the Queen Mother, but she was not at all strange for Gu Mingyue and his wife.

Not only is it not strange, but she is also very grateful to Gu Mingyue and Baili Shihan for everything they did after the incident!

The two of them, husband and wife, not only did not sit idly by and ignore Gu Roujia because she was their sister-in-law, but also tried their best to help her testify against Gu Roujia, which can be said to be benevolent and righteous!

"Yunyang is still kind-hearted in the end!" Gu Mingyue smiled, and a little bitterness quickly appeared between her eyebrows.

If Gu Roujia could have a pure mind like Yunyang, then he wouldn't have to worry about her getting into trouble all the time!

"Sixth cousin is serious!" Yun Yang immediately resigned, not accepting his praise.

She didn't feel pity for Gu Roujia when she said that, she just looked at the face of Gu Mingyue and his wife, and didn't want them to be difficult to be!

Gu Mingyue smiled, and soon helped Gu Roujia, who had fainted, with Baili Shihan to say goodbye to everyone.

After they left, Yunyang and the others talked again and left.

At night, Emperor Yongli personally held a reception banquet for Yunyang and his wife in the Renle Palace, and invited many clans and important ministers.

Although there were delicious food and wine and peerless dancing girls, the expressions of everyone during the banquet were still relatively solemn and cold, and there was no such lively hustle and bustle as the palace banquets in the past.

Emperor Yongli only frowned a little unpleasantly, and did not say anything to mediate, he knew that everyone was just troubled by recent events.

The murderer of Gu Xixiao has not been caught so far, the eighth prince and the eighth princess are still lingering on the sickbed, and several favored young palace concubines in the harem have been beaten into the cold palace...... There is a sense of anxiety and fear throughout Kyoto.

In this atmosphere, who still has the leisure to participate in such a banquet as in the past?

Yunyang has not been in Beijing for a long time, and he has guessed some clues because of everyone's strange performance.

"Mother, what's going on these days? How do I feel that there is an undercurrent in this hall? She asked quietly, and Rong Mu also pricked up his ears to listen.

"It's not Su Guifei's mother and son who are making trouble! I shouldn't say much here, I'll tell you more when I get home! The eldest princess of Shunyi replied in a low voice.

"Hmm!" Yunyang bowed his head and continued to drink tea and eat vegetables.

When the atmosphere in the main hall became more and more depressing, Emperor Yongli finally said goodbye to the singers and musicians.

"The prince and the princess of Ruyang have been tired all the way, and they are very tired when they think about it, so I won't be a bad person! You two go back to the inn and rest! โ€

As soon as they heard that the banquet was about to end, Yunyang and Rong Mu were overjoyed, and the two happily attended and thanked him: "Thank you Your Majesty for your compassion, and Weichen (courtiers) are grateful!" โ€

"Aiqing is polite!" Emperor Yongli waved his hand.

Then, Yunyang and Rong Mu bowed again to resign, and soon left the hall at the signal of Emperor Yongli.

This reception banquet was set up for the two of them, and there was naturally no point in continuing after the two of them left.

Therefore, as soon as they stepped out of the gate, Emperor Yongli got up and left, and the empress and others left closely following Emperor Yongli's steps.

"Husband, my father has a dislike for Yunyang!" Su Jinli looked at the back of Emperor Yongli and sighed.

When I went to the city gate to pick up Yunyang in person today, Emperor Yongli called Yunyang and called her name, but she was directly called "the princess of Ruyang".

The two names, which are close and which is sparse, are simply clear at a glance.

Compared with Su Jinli's abrupt emotion, Gu Mingjue seemed much calmer, and he said lightly: "This is inevitable!" From the moment his father chose to defend Gu Roujia, he was destined to be in today's situation! โ€

Yes, he knew at that time that Yunyang would have a grudge against his father, and a person like his father who attached great importance to the emperor's face would never bow down and be small, so he would soon completely fall out with Yunyang!

"Alas!" Su Jinli sighed, not knowing what she was talking about, so she walked out of the Renle Hall with Gu Mingjue in silence.

The two of them walked out of the hall hand in hand, and saw the queen and the eldest princess Shunyi not far away, both of them looked angry, as if they were arguing about something.

Su Jinli's heart tightened, and he immediately walked over there quickly.

As they got closer, the quarrel between the two became clearer and clearer, and listening to it, Su Jinli couldn't help but feel a little numb.

The two of them were arguing over Yunyang's whipping of Gu Roujia!

How can this be persuaded?

Yunyang is the pearl of the eldest princess of Shunyi, and Gu Roujia is also the queen's heart!

"I've seen the queen mother and aunt!" Su Jinli bowed.

The queen and the eldest princess Shunyi were arguing fiercely, when they were suddenly interrupted, and both of them frowned, looking very dissatisfied.

When she saw that it was Su Jinli, the face of the eldest princess of Shunyi immediately eased a little, but the queen's face became more and more ugly.

She gritted her teeth and said calmly: "Flat!" โ€

"Thank you for your grace! Erchen is grateful! Su Jinli pretended not to see the queen's displeasure, and thanked her.

This move immediately aroused the jealousy in the queen's heart to become more and more serious, and once the queen wanted to fall directly in front of her.

Queen: "......"

Since I have decided to pretend that I don't know, I simply pretend to be the end.

Su Jinli continued to ask: "Erchen dares to ask what the queen mother and aunt are talking about?" Why does it look so lively? โ€

As soon as the words fell, two completely different voices rang out.

"Didn't say anything!"

"Li'er, hurry back!"

The queen replied impatiently, and the expression and tone of the eldest princess Shunyi were very peaceful.

The queen was disgusted that Su Jinli didn't open which pot to mention, and the eldest princess Shunyi was worried that it would affect Su Jinli.

"Huh? Why do you think you two are talking about something terrible? Otherwise, how could he so tacitly refuse to answer Erchen's question? Su Jinli said with a wink.

The eldest princess Shunyi tried to squeeze out a smile, and continued to persuade: "It's just some trivial matters, it's not important, you go back quickly!" โ€

In order to let Su Jinli, who was in the way, leave earlier, the queen hurriedly responded: "As Shunyi said, what the two of us said is just a trivial matter, and there is nothing worth telling!" Hurry up and go back to your house with Ming Jue to rest! โ€

Su Jinli not only felt funny, but also didn't know what was going on, when the queen saw her, it was like seeing a plague god, and she was busy driving her away.

"Thank you for your concern, my son will go home!" She bowed her head obediently, and then made a gesture to go forward.

Seeing this, the queen and the eldest princess of Shunyi breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and before they could exchange glances, Su Jinli stopped again.

"Look at my memory! I forgot about the big thing! Aunt Shunyi, Gonggong Yun in the Empress Dowager's palace asked her nephew to bring you the edict of the emperor's grandmother! She slapped her head and looked at the eldest princess Shunyi with apology and chagrin.

As soon as they heard that it was the Empress Dowager's decree, the expressions of the queen and the eldest princess Shunyi became solemn.

"Oh? What will the Queen Mother have to pass on to me? The eldest princess of Shunyi asked eagerly.

"The imperial grandmother announced that you will go to Ci'an Palace to get together! It seems like...... Her old man knows about your cold two days ago! Su Jinli concisely retold the Queen Mother's "Yi Decree", and kindly explained it.

"Shunyi obeys!" The eldest princess of Shunyi began to make a big gift when Su Jinli's words were not finished.

She has great respect for the Queen Mother, the biological mother.

"Auntie, hurry up! Otherwise, the imperial grandmother has been thinking about you all the time! Su Jinli continued to comfort.

After that, without waiting for the eldest princess Shunyi to speak, she turned around and took the eldest princess's arm and walked quickly towards the direction of Ci'an Palace.

Gu Mingjue has been following her, so now only the queen is left standing in place with a calm face.

"Niangniang, did you just let the eldest princess of Shunyi go?" The palace maid behind the queen was quite unwilling.

Hearing this, the queen's eyes lit up, and she said coldly: "Su Jinli has moved out of the queen mother, what can I do if the palace doesn't let Shunyi go?" โ€

She is the queen and the most powerful woman in this Dayan, but she can't disobey the queen mother!

Su Jinli's intention is fake, but it is just a reminder that the Queen Mother will unconditionally protect Shunyi's mother and daughter!

"Yes...... Isn't the eighth princess's injury too wronged? The other palace man continued to be angry.

Gu Roujia has grown up with them since she was a child, although the master and servant are different, but they really feel sorry for Gu Roujia, and they are reluctant to suffer a little grievance from Gu Roujia.

This time, Gu Roujia was whipped by Yunyang and bruised all over her body, her clothes were soaked with blood, and they were so distressed that they couldn't breathe!

I only hope that the queen can punish Yunyang fiercely, so as to seek justice for Gu Roujia!

Clinker, Emperor Yongli sent Yunyang and his wife away early, and they can only give up no matter how much they hate!

Coincidentally, just when they were indignant, the eldest princess Shunyi came over and happened to meet a few of their master and servants.

The queen decided to ask the eldest princess Shunyi for a talk!

Although this can't calm Gu Roujia's grievances, it's better than nothing, and it can make the queen and them breathe a bad breath!

Who knows, the eldest princess of Shunyi has sharp teeth and quick thinking, and after saying a few words, she is not convinced at all, and the queen is angry enough!

This is enough grievances, but the heavens seem to be unable to get along with them, and Su Jinli came out halfway! Directly pulled the eldest princess of Shunyi away!
