On the Day the Scumbag Got Married, I Lay Flat and Became His Sister-in-law

"My daughter sent someone to investigate, and if there is any news, I will pass it to the queen mother." Princess Duanqing also had the same doubts.

"It should be done more secretly." The Queen Mother whispered.

Afterwards, she comforted Yongjia a few words, and then wanted to leave the Hou Mansion.

Princess Yongjia chased after the Queen Mother and said, "Did grandma just watch Yongjia being bullied like this?"

Her mother is His Royal Highness the eldest princess, the empress dowager is her maternal grandmother, and she herself is a first-rank princess. With such a noble status, she is so bullied by Gu Xiyan that she has no strength to fight back. How can she be reconciled?

The Queen Mother slowed down, looked back at Princess Yongjia, and said sternly: "Yongjia, it is the emperor who punished you today, Zhou Mu is the emperor's favorite minister, and the person the emperor loves, you will have to bear it no matter how unwilling you are. Remember one thing, at any time, the emperor is supreme, and no one can surpass the emperor's rights."

It was understandable that Yongjia was doted on by them, but when it came to the emperor, the emperor turned to Zhou Mu, so Yongjia was wrong.

Princess Yongjia fell silent.

According to my grandmother, if His Majesty thinks she is wrong, then she is wrong, but His Majesty is her uncle. Even if it's not close, why does His Majesty want to treat an outsider like Gu Xiyan?

That car went to Zhou's residence.

Emperor Chengde didn't need to explain things to anyone, but this time he still talked too much and explained to Zhou Mu: "I didn't punish Yongjia severely, because I didn't want you to make too many enemies. The Wang family has a lot of power. You just entered the officialdom. If there are too many enemies, I'm afraid someone will use it for you."

"I know." Zhou Mu subconsciously looked at Gu Xiyan.

At worst, he asked Zhiyuan to go to Xuanchanghou's mansion again tonight, to add some spices to Princess Yongjia, and let her taste the feeling of not being able to live and not being able to die.

Only then did Emperor Chengde remember that Gu Xiyan didn't know Zhou Mu's true identity yet, did he think these girls would be confused?

Gu Xiyan felt that it was inappropriate for her to be present on such an occasion, so she said, "Your Majesty, if you want to go back to Wanqinghou Mansion, can you?"

Emperor Cheng De subconsciously looked at Zhou Mu, Zhou Mu was afraid that Gu Xiyan would be cautious, so he answered, "I'll take you back."

Gu Xiyan shook her head quickly when she heard this: "No, Your Majesty is here, and the Young Master will accompany His Majesty. I live next door, and I don't need the Young Master to see you off."

Zhou Mu insisted on her own opinion, and directly held her soft and boneless palm: "Then I'll take you to the gate of the Hou Mansion."

Gu Xiyan looked at Emperor Chengde, but saw that Emperor Chengde was watching her and Zhou Mu flirting with a smile, and she blushed for a while.

In the end, she couldn't hold back Zhou Mu and was sent back to the Hou Mansion by him.

When Zhou Mu turned back, he saw his own father waiting for him with a half-smile.

"What are you laughing at?" Zhou Mu didn't know why.

Emperor Chengde coughed twice, and restrained his smile: "When are you going to reveal your identity to Xiyan? And about the food festival, have you ever thought that Xiyan might really be the gourmet food of Jixianglou?" behind the festival?"

"If she can earn 300,000 taels in just two days, that's her ability." Zhou Mu led the way and entered the tea room first.

Emperor Chengde took a leisurely walk in the courtyard and followed up with the tea room: "I have heard about Xiyan's experience in the Hou Mansion as a father. Have you ever thought that she might be a pawn sent by Wan Qinghou to get close to you on purpose?"

He had discovered it in Xuanchanghou's mansion before, and Gu Xiyan didn't seem to be surprised that he was protecting Zhou Mu at all.

Just now Gu Xiyan took the initiative to avoid him, could it be because Gu Xiyan knew Zimo's identity earlier and was deliberately approaching Zimo?

Since ancient times, the beauty trick has been tried and tested repeatedly, and even Zimo, who grew up in the Temple of Fallen Immortals, was not exempt from it.

Hearing this, Zhou Mu couldn't help laughing: "Father and Zhiyuan said the same thing. Think about Xi Yan's experience in Wanqinghou Mansion these years, Father knows that this statement is not true."

After a moment of silence, he said again: "Even if she was really sent to approach me on purpose, it doesn't matter to me. I can only like her in my life, and there will be no other people."

It took a while for Emperor Chengde to spit out two words: "Idiot!"

Zhou Mu didn't comment, he was hesitating whether to tell his father about his illness.

If he tells this matter, the person in front of him will be sad again?

After hesitating for a moment, he still decided to press the matter temporarily.

"I want to cure my illness as soon as possible. Did Emperor Father send someone to find a famous doctor?" Zhou Mu felt that he should ask more practical questions.

"This matter is already being dealt with. I've never seen you so anxious before." Emperor Cheng De took a deep look at Zhou Mu, feeling that the child shouldn't be so impatient.

"It would be great if I could cure my illness before getting married." Zhou Mu said softly.

Emperor Chengde nodded in satisfaction, he just liked to see the child living an active life.

"By the way, you're not going to tell Xiyan your identity?" Emperor Cheng De thought that Zhou Mu had deliberately avoided his question before, and asked.

At this time, Qi Zhiyuan sent a pot of hot water inside, Zhou Mu took it, went forward to make a pot of good tea, and said: "If Xi Yan knows my real identity, will she dislike me?"

Emperor Chengde laughed and shook his head: "You child is thinking too much. You are my eldest son, how dare she despise you?"

"Does father think that the status of the prince is good? She has suffered so much before, and grew up in such a complicated environment as the Liu family. She must marry a simple and simple family, not the royal family." Zhou Mu said more and more I feel that my background is not good.

Emperor Chengde said angrily: "Do you dislike my father? You should think about it a little bit more. Did Xiyan ask about your life experience before? I think this is more important."

Zhou Mu was taken aback when he heard the words.

After being reminded by his father, he suddenly discovered that Gu Xiyan had indeed never inquired about his life experience. Before they were not engaged, it was normal for her not to ask, but after they got engaged, she never asked his family.

On the day of proposing marriage, he only brought a few matchmakers to the door, without the company of the elders in the family, and she never asked any more questions.

It's as if she already knew his identity...

Seeing Zhou Mu's strange expression, Emperor Cheng De knew that he had guessed right.

"In today's environment like Xuanchanghou's Mansion, Xiyan was also very calm when facing the vicious family of the Queen Mother. I remember that the outside world's evaluation of Xiyan was dull, timid and cowardly. In fact, the Xiyan you know Is that so?" Emperor Chengde asked seriously.

He was afraid that his son would be fascinated by Gu Xiyan, and he was even more afraid that such a good Zimo would be hurt by a woman in the end.

Seeing that Zhou Mu was silent, Emperor Cheng De said again: "If Xi Yan is really planning behind the food festival, then you should re-examine Xi Yan."

Zhou Mu didn't know what to think of, and suddenly smiled.

Emperor Chengde felt inexplicable: "What are you laughing at?"

"I was just thinking, if Xiyan is so good at making money, she can support me when I leave the capital in the future." Zhou Mu's eyes were also tinged with a smile.
