Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess Chapter 564 - Calm down, Mother

Chapter 564 Calm down, Mother

Although mother had rooted herself in the foreign land, she ought to have missed her holand very much.

She could imagine how much effort her mother had made in order not to have her identity exposed back then.

If her mother could witness from heaven, how she had been reunited with her cousins, Lin ngya was sure that she would be greatly comforted.

“Oh yes, did anyone create any disturbance at the Art Courtyard while I was away?”

By now, Lin ngya had completely no scruples about the pretend Concubine De.

Moreover, given Long Tianyu’s intelligence, he might well have started to be suspicious.

The disorderly band in the Art Courtyard was Long Tianyu’s way of deceiving the mastermind behind the scenes.

Now that the situation in the palace was unstable and the real Concubine De was still in the queen’s hands, it was needful that they guard against certain things.

“How would they dare to stir up any trouble? However, it does seem strange that the people from the Art Courtyard would co over to our courtyard to probe for information once every two to three days. Later on, when the edict from the palace ca, asking Concubine De to see the emperor, to their surprise, it greatly angered the emperor for so unknown reason. The emperor then passed an imperial edict for Concubine De to be locked up to reflect on her mistakes.”

As Baizhi answered Lin ngya’s questions, there was a hint in her large bright eyes that suggested she was gloating over what happened.

After thinking it over carefully, Lin ngya could understand why. Who was the emperor? Even when his life was uncertain when he fell unconscious, the Crown Prince and the queen held back from taking action for fear of any harm they might cause.

Moreover, he and Concubine De had been a couple for so many years. Naturally, it only required one glance to see through certain things.

At this mont, keeping Concubine De locked up in the Art Courtyard was a hint that they would be watching her closely.

Getting soone to be Concubine De’s imposter was rely a step in the queen’s ploy, so it did not really play an important role.

Now that everyone’s attention was on the Yun State pandemic, who would be thinking of the fake Concubine De in Prince Yu’s mansion?

“Miss, why don’t you pay a visit to Concubine De? It’s only reasonable given that she is your mother-in-law.”

Ms. Tian was not aware of the secret behind this.

On the other hand, the real problem between the two of them was that of common animosity between the mother- and daughter-in-law.

As soone who had been through the sa situation, as well as an elder, she had to give Lin ngya a few words of advice.

“Why do I have to pay a visit to her? Whenever I think of that Jiang Ruqin, my blood would start to boil!”

Baizhi tried to put an end to the suggestion, sounding angry and made a face.

Whoever dared to bully her master would get into trouble with her!

It was not that Ms. Tian did not love her infant, rather, there were just so things she had to do in order to preserve Lin ngya’s good na.

“Alright, everything you say sounds reasonable. Baizhi, I know you are concerned about . Likewise, Ms. Tian is as concerned. However, the Concubine De business may have future implications on another serious matter. Let us pay a visit to her now. You need not eat dirt, just do what you have to do. We don’t need to be her punching bag going forward.”

The sweet smile on Lin ngya, as well as her calm voice puzzled both Baizhi and Ms. Tian.

What, what on earth was happening?

After a little preparation, Lin ngya changed into a pogranate-color dress.

On the hem of her skirt, there were patterns of large peonies embroidered with silver and gold threads, which made them look so real.

Her long, smooth hair was secured at the back of her head with a set of tourmaline ornant and a beautiful hair clip. She appeared elegant and graceful even in the dark of the evening.

Baiji and Baizhi carried two gold-gilded lamps as they walked ahead of the rest. The familiar scenes along the journey reminded Lin ngya of the ti she first arrived here.

Ti went by in flash. One year had passed so quickly and like flowing water, there was no turning back.

She might be dressed gorgeously, but she did not have many servants following her around.

She was, in na, this fake Concubine De’s daughter-in-law. It was acceptable for her to be dressed splendidly, but she might be described as being arrogant if a lot of people clustered around.

For this reason, her three personal maids were about the only people who followed her around all the ti.

Many groups of guards were stationed within the prince’s mansion, especially outside the gates of the Art Courtyard to patrol the area.

It was no wonder no one dared create a stir at the Art Courtyard. The emperor ought to have anticipated that what the queen and her supporters were like. Therefore, he had given the command for the concubine to be locked up in the Art Courtyard.

This would an no more ssengers would co by to deliver any news, which was good. In fact, it would prevent further complications on the matter.

“Open the door quickly, the princess is here to visit Concubine De.”

Just when they arrived at the gates, Baizhi had run to the door and knocked on it gently as she shouted the instruction for the people inside.

There was the sound of so movents inside. Soone even exclaid in surprise.

It was most likely because they did not expect Princess Yu, who had just returned ho, to choose to visit Concubine De at this mont.

“Creak...” A strong and stout looking woman opened the crescent door of the Art Courtyard.

She was wearing dull color clothes made of rough fabric, but she appeared to be impeccable.

After seeing that it was Lin ngya, she bowed respectfully to her without further delay.

“Greetings to the princess. How could we trouble you to co all the way here given the timing?”

She spoke with a low voice, but there was a hint of her trying to curry favor with Lin ngya.

By now, everyone in the mansion knew that this lady from Liuxin Courtyard was the real mistress here.

Regardless of Concubine De’s prestige, she was after all a guest.

Those servants who were more intelligent would have thought that they’d better fawn on this mistress.

“I have co to pay my respects to the concubine. Has she gone to bed?”

Having been through all that happened in the Nation of Lintian, Lin ngya’s character seed to have beco even more gentle and agreeable.

She was also less harsh and stern with the servants.

Lin ngya’s gentle voice was so gentle and flowy like water that the old maid guarding by the door was overwheld by her tenderness.

“No, she’s not gone to sleep yet. I just heard so noise which sounded like soone fighting and rolling around. The concubine has offended the emperor and the prince was still upset about her, so apart from Jingyue, who is the concubine’s personal maid, no one else dared to go into her room, lest bad luck should co upon the person.”

The old maid spoke in a manner to please Lin ngya and Lin ngya naturally understood the situation.

If the lady living inside was indeed the real Concubine De, she would have the image of a loving mother, who was well respected by her children.

Now, however, neither she nor the emperor would be kind to an imposter who had ulterior motives.

Having lost the emperor’s protection and the son’s attention, who among the servants in the mansion would still treat her with respect and fear like before?

Acting as the situation dictated had always been a behavior that got everyone’s hackles up.

“Erm, thanks a lot. I’ll go in to take a look.”

She smiled slightly. It was obvious from her face that she was making an effort to maintain peace.

The witty old maid retreated to let them in. The four of them headed towards the main room of the Art Courtyard.

During April when flowers in bloom were beautiful and fragrant, so was the scene in the mansion brilliant with all kinds of flowers and plants.

However, this was the only place with withered branches scattered all over the ground. It was as if the bitter winter had yet to pass.

Nevertheless, the scene was fitting with the situation here.

“Who’s that outside? Is my courtyard a place for you to make a racket as and when you like? Get lost from my sight quickly!”

Before they approached the room, they could hear through the heavy curtain of the room, a voice filled with anger, yelling, and scolding.

Baiji and Baishao stopped in their tracks and watched Lin ngya in silence.

With a flash in her eyes, Lin ngya bent one of her knees in a polite bow.

“Your daughter-in-law is here to pay respect to you, Mother. Please forgive for not being able to co to visit you for the past days because I followed the prince on his trip out.”

There was no way the servants of the courtyard could go to sleep because of the commotion created by Concubine De.

For this reason, many of them witnessed how Lin ngya paid her respect to the concubine.

No one had expected Lin ngya to behave so respectfully towards Concubine De, who had not left her room for an entire half month. Could it be that the princess was unaware of the fact that Concubine De had been under house arrest?

“Snort! So it’s you, my good daughter-in-law. How dare you still co to see without feeling any sha! You tricked my son and made the emperor hate . What are you here for?”

Concubine De had blad all these on her.

Lin ngya felt like mocking Concubine De, but she managed to maintain a steady tone of voice.

“Mother, it was because of an order from the emperor that the prince and I had to make a trip out in haste, so we didn’t have ti to report to you. As for why the emperor detested and rejected you, I feel that you’ve been at the emperor’s service for many years so naturally, you would know his character best. I believe it’s because the emperor was afraid that you would be affected by his illness. It’s not really because he detested and rejected you.”

Lin ngya sounded confident when she spoke. There was no hint of irritation or impatience in her voice.

Lin ngya’s answer was so perfect that Concubine De was unable to find fault or make things difficult for her.

However, she must be so angry in her heart by now.

There was a mont of silence before she opened her mouth to speak in a cold voice, saying, “In that case, co in then, lest people accuse of making things difficult for you.”

Lin ngya could not help but laugh grimly to herself when at the concubine’s eccentric behavior.

It was no wonder that the emperor quickly saw through her.

The real Concubine De ca from a noble family and therefore, was not just a useless woman with good looks.

Not only was the queen’s ways vicious, but she also had relatives from outside who were backing her up and she even colluded with the Candle Dragon Cult.

For so many years, Concubine De was able to be worldly-wise and played safe, and was even able to protect herself and her child safely.

There was no way for an imposter to match up to such wisdom and capability.

As Lin ngya pondered over this, they continued walking, and soon, the four of them arrived at the inner chamber.

An intense fragrance that ca from burning incense filled the entire room, and the incense was of the expensive kind. Strings of beads were hung from the ceiling as a curtain that separated the room into two spaces.

Lin ngya kept her head low as she entered with her three maids and together, they greeted the concubine with a bow.

“Greetings to Concubine De, Mother. Hope you are doing well.”

As Lin ngya made a series of bows, the beads and hair clips on her head made crispy sounds as they collided from her movent.

The pale white light indoors fell on Lin ngya’s pogranate-color dress, which finally brought so life and color to this place.

The rich and gorgeous gown on Lin ngya’s body made the people in the room burn with jealousy.

“You may rise. You’ve indeed picked up your manners after your return this ti.”
