Chapter 251 Taking Yun Ai Home (Part )
Concubine Liang was full of curiosity and asked, "What is it?"
Liu Xin said with a sigh, "Yesterday, the palace sent a message to Shun'an Marquis's Mansion, asking Madam Rong to come to the palace to see the emperor today. The palace servant who sent the message also hinted that the emperor summoned Madam Rong to the palace for the matter of the second master Yun. Guess what happened?"
Without waiting for Concubine Liang to answer, Liu Xin seemed impatient and said, "As a result, Madam Rong actually wanted to kill Master Yun the Second overnight! Fortunately, Madam Gong stopped her, so no one was killed."
Concubine Liang suddenly realized that Mrs. Rong was disrespecting His Majesty! No wonder His Majesty was so angry today.
In this case, it is understandable that Madam Rong's granddaughter was driven out of the palace.
Seeing Concubine Liang looking relieved, Liu Xin also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Very good, Concubine Liang was able to fool people here.
When the news reached the palace last night, he was beside Emperor Taihe and naturally knew what had happened in Shun'an Marquis' Mansion.
Even what he just said was hinted by Emperor Taihe for him to reveal to Concubine Liang.
He had been serving the Emperor Taihe since he entered the palace at the age of seven, and had developed a tacit understanding with him. For many things, he could understand what the Emperor Taihe meant without the Emperor Taihe explaining them in detail.
Therefore, his purpose of coming here to pass on the imperial decree was not just to take the little princess and Miss Yun San away. There was also another purpose, which was to stabilize Concubine Liang.
As they were talking, the palace servant had already packed up the little princess and Yun Ai's things and came out with their people.
Both of them had red and swollen eyes and looked listless. It was obvious that they had been crying for a long time and did not sleep well.
"Your Majesty, I will take the little princess and Miss Yun San to Shoukang Palace now. I'll take my leave." Liu Xin said goodbye respectfully and left.
After the group left, the female official next to Concubine Liang asked in confusion, "Madam, it's fine that Miss Yun San was driven out of the palace, but why did His Majesty send the little princess to the Queen Mother?"
Concubine Liang sighed, "This is a vent of anger. I think the emperor is very angry and thinks that Madam Rong sent Miss Yun to the palace in order to get close to me. So not only did he drive Miss Yun out of the palace, he also sent the little princess away as a punishment for me."
"Then, didn't the queen suffer an unexpected disaster?" The female official said with regret: "The little princess can get more attention from the emperor if she is raised by the queen."
"It's okay. As long as the little princess is not sent to the palace of the queen or other concubines, it will be fine." Concubine Liang didn't care. "It's just right that I can free up my hands to arrange Lingchuan's marriage."
"Your Majesty is right. I heard that the Ministry of Internal Affairs is measuring the land and preparing to build a palace for the princess."
The master and servant turned the topic to Princess Lingchuan's marriage, not taking what had just happened to heart at all.

Not long after Rong Enqing and his party returned to Shoukang Palace, Liu Xin came over with the little princess and Yun Ai.
After the two men saluted the Queen Mother, and everyone saluted the little princess, the Queen Mother smiled and waved at the two men: "Come, come over here."
The little princess looked at Yun Ai, took Yun Ai's hand and slowly walked to the Queen Mother, calling out timidly, "Grandmother."
The little princess was only eight years old when the Chinese New Year came. Perhaps because she had experienced a lot in the past six months since her mother's death, she became cautious and even had a bit of flattering tone.
The Queen Mother reached out and touched the little princess's pointed chin, which had shrunk into an oval face, and asked softly, "Your name is Yue'er, right?"
The little princess nodded obediently: "In reply to the Imperial Grandmother, Yue'er is the nickname my mother gave me. My name is He Yue, Xia He Yue."
"Xia Heyue, that's a good name." The Queen Mother asked with a smile, "You were named Heyue, so you weren't born in June, were you?"
"That's right." The little princess smiled and nodded, looking at the Queen Mother with a look of surprise. Just by looking at her name, you can guess what month she was born! The Queen Mother is really amazing!
After a few simple questions, the little princess felt less afraid of the queen mother and more close to her.
The Queen Mother turned to look at Yun Ai, but before she could say anything, she noticed that the child's eyes were filled with tears and he kept glancing towards Rong Enqing.
So, he smiled and shook his head and said to Rong Enqing: "Come on, take your girl back home quickly. If you don't come and take her back, she will drop a gold nugget."
Rong Enqing smiled awkwardly, walked forward quickly, squatted down, and prepared to say a few words to Yun Ai.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she squatted down, Yun Ai threw herself into her arms, hugged her neck, and burst into tears.
"Wuwuwu, Grandma, I want to go home! I want my grandma! I want my mother! Wuwuwu... I want to go home! I want my sister! I want my grandma!..."
When Rong Enqing entered the room, he saw Yun Ai's red and swollen eyes. Seeing someone crying again, he felt extremely distressed.
She immediately hugged him, patted him gently, and comforted him softly: "Oh, my dear, are you missing your grandma? Be good, don't cry, grandma will take you home soon!
"We will be able to see your mother when we go home. And your eldest sister, second sister, and your eldest brother, second brother, and third brother are all waiting for you at home."
"Woo, woo, woo, I want to go home! I want to go home!..."
Yun Ai, who had always been very well-behaved, was really scared when she was sent to the palace this time. No matter how Rong Enqing tried to comfort her, she still cried and shouted that she wanted to go home.
Rong Enqing was at a loss, and looked at the Queen Mother awkwardly, "Queen Mother?"
The Queen Mother still had something she didn't understand, so she waved her hand and said, "Go back. Zhou Xue will take care of your affairs, and I have nothing to tell you. Go."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Rong Enqing was grateful in his heart. After thanking her, he hugged Yun Ai and prepared to leave with Nanny Zhou.
Unexpectedly, when Rong Enqing was about to get up, he found that Princess Yue'er was holding Yun Ai's clothes tightly.
When Rong Enqing looked at her, she blinked and tears rolled down.
"Don't take my sister away!" Princess Yue'er looked at Rong Enqing pitifully, then tugged at Yun Ai's clothes and cried, "Sister, don't go! I'll give you my new clothes and the best food, please don't go, okay?"
Yun Ai had been looking towards the door, but now she turned to look at the girl who was a few years older than her and cried, "I want to go home! I don't want to stay in the palace!"
When the little princess heard this, she cried out in grievance, "You promised to be my sister yesterday! Don't you want me as your sister? Sister, I am your sister! You can't abandon your sister!"
Yun Ai wiped her tears and said naively: "Then you come home with me!"
Then he turned to look at Rong Enqing, "Grandma, let's take Sister Yue'er home as well, okay?"
Rong Enqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She knew without thinking that this was impossible. But Yun Ai looked at her with a pleading look, and even the little princess looked expectant.
