Chapter 404: Chu Yan returns to the capital

"Mama, I'll leave this matter to you." The fifth princess admired the newly acquired agate ring in her hand, and her tone was understated, "Before the matter is dealt with, she must not be allowed to find out the clues." ”

"The old body knows."

Mama Wu knew that the person she was talking about was Zhou Yun'er.

Zhou Yun'er is now a very important chess piece for them, and they can't lose it no matter what, and they have to help Zhou Yun'er suppress the gossip in the city.

Thinking of this, the fifth princess still felt a headache, I really didn't know why she was looking for a vulgar child like Zhou Yun'er, who was in the city all day long to make trouble, and she had to help her.

Mama Wu has been by the princess's side for decades, and when she saw the princess with this expression, she understood what was going on.

She went over to help the princess press her shoulders and whispered, "Princess, don't worry. After all, Chu Gongzi was raised by you, although he had a conflict with you before, Chu Gongzi has always been filial, and he must have thought of you as a mother in his heart. ”

"Can he still think of me?!" Speaking of this, the fifth princess was angry, "He left without saying a word, when did he think about me as a mother?" Now the emperor and the prince are blaming me, thinking that I drove him away! ”

Hearing this, Mama Wu sighed, "The princess is also forced to be helpless." ”

The fifth princess pursed her lips and did not speak.

At the beginning, her first child was indeed a daughter, and the fifth prince was not in the house at that time, and she was too weak because she gave birth to her first child, and the imperial doctor told her that she might not be able to get pregnant again for the rest of her life.

In a hurry, she asked Mama Wu to find a newborn baby boy and exchange it with her own daughter, and lied to the outside world that the baby boy was the son of the Five Princes' Mansion, wanting to keep her status.

When this baby boy grew up, he was deeply favored by the prince and the emperor, and even the people in the city liked him very much, he was a talented person who could write and martial arts, and at the age of twelve he went to the border with the prince, and made great contributions, making her a very face-saving mother, and she was the most eye-catching among the ladies in the capital.

But after all, she is not her biological son, she is worried all day long about whether her son will have her own life experience, abandoning her as a mother, and has been asking the imperial doctor to help her recuperate for many years, and finally gave birth to another son.

The five princesses know better than anyone that this child is the real son of the Five Princes' Mansion, and if she was found out about the tanuki changing the prince, the emperor would definitely not spare her.

Defiling the blood of the royal family is a big sin of the nine clans, so she tried her best to press the title of the prince to her youngest son, although the outside world has discussed her approach, but because of the support of the eldest son, things finally went smoothly.

But perhaps because the biggest hidden danger in her heart has been solved, the fifth princess began to miss her own daughter who was sent away by her as soon as she was born, and she didn't know how she was doing now.

But her eldest son was smart after all, and soon discovered her secret, and took the initiative to help her find the county lord, and the prince also knew about the events of the year, and did not tell the emperor under her begging, otherwise the matter would definitely implicate the Five Princes' Mansion.

Later, it was the executive's family who found Zhou Yuner at Luoxi Station, and it happened that the Queen Mother was seriously ill, and Zhou Yuner's appearance made the Queen Mother feel better, and she was able to get out of bed and walk, and it was for this reason that the fifth princess left Zhou Yuner.

The emperor also knew that the previous prince of the Five Princes Mansion had no blood relationship with the royal family, and the five princesses could only excuse themselves in a hurry and said that they didn't know about it, and it was the mother-in-law who delivered the baby who secretly transferred the child.

Despite saying this, the emperor was still very angry, and at this time she needed Zhou Yun'er even more. Zhou Yun'er can make the Queen Mother happy, and the emperor will naturally open up.

It's just that when she thinks of Zhou Yun'er's temperament, the princess feels a headache, if she had known this, she shouldn't have let the prince know the truth back then.

Mama Wu knew that the princess was upset, so she hesitated and said, "Princess, the old body recently heard a news, the eldest young master seems to have returned to the capital?" ”

"Really?" The princess was surprised.

The fifth prince is surnamed Chu, and after her eldest son was taken away from his son, he could only be called by his first name.

"There is such a news, but it has not been confirmed, so I have not dared to tell the princess before."

Hearing this, the fifth princess calmed down a lot, she frowned lightly, "Why did Yan'er come back at this time, is there a rumor from the emperor's side?" ”

Chu Yan was deeply valued by the emperor, and he also left, if it was really the emperor's intention to let him come back, the five princesses would not be surprised.

It's just that he didn't come to find his mother when he returned to Beijing this time, which made the fifth princess's face cold, maybe her son was not so filial to her after his life was revealed.

"Mama Wu, you go and inquire, but don't alarm anyone."

She really didn't want the ladies in the capital to know that her son, who she was once proud of, didn't come to see her when he returned to the capital.

"Don't worry, the princess, the old body has already sent someone to investigate. The eldest young master seems to be with the Xiao family's young master Xiao Yun. ”

"Xiao Yun?" The princess was slightly stunned.

She naturally knew this person, she was a protΓ©gΓ© of the palace at the beginning, and later she was admitted to the court as an official after gaining fame, and she knew Chu Yan himself.

The princess rubbed her temples, "Okay, Mama, you don't need to tell me these things, Yan'er and Xiao Yun have known me for a long time, and now I want to know what the reason for him to go to Beijing is, is it because the emperor summoned him." ”

"Probably not."

Mama Wu helped her hammer her shoulder, thought about it and said, "The eldest young master has been with Young Master Xiao during his return to Beijing, and the county lord of Anyang has also been with him. ”

"Anyang also knows that Yan'er is back?" Hearing this, the princess was even more dissatisfied.

She originally felt that she had stripped Chu Yan of her position as the son of the world and given it to her own son, she was a little sorry for Chu Yan, and Chu Yan should have complained about her, but she didn't expect Chu Yan to ignore her like this now.

After returning to the capital for so many days, only a few juniors knew that he was back, and they didn't think about informing her at all.

"Mama, just continue to send someone to investigate, and tell me if you have any news."

After speaking, the princess got up and left, and the anger in her heart could not be eliminated.

Mama Wu hurriedly caught up and comforted her.

It's just that the princess is angry and doesn't want to listen to these words, Mama Wu is worried that she will be angry, so she has to tell her another news that she inquired about.

It's just that this news, Mama Wu hasn't confirmed yet, and she is a little hesitant when she speaks, "Princess, I also heard another thing, the eldest young master came to the capital by water this time, and he also brought two women with him, it was Su Liuye and Qin Lian who came from cyclamen. ”
