Chapter 304 Who took the little grandson away?
Yu Jiuer had no choice but to speak up: "Father, I have made such a great contribution. Can you lift my house arrest order and let me return to Yinshan County to take up my post?"
Even though the emperor could pretend to be stupid and not reward her, there was nothing she could hold back on. She gritted her teeth and competed with the emperor in shamelessness to see who could win.
Jun Mo's mouth twitched. He didn't expect that his wife was so shameless that she dared to ask for repayment for a favor from his father?
"Humph! You don't suffer any loss at all." The emperor glared at her unhappily, "Even if you have made meritorious deeds, you can't dispel the rumors. Would it be embarrassing for my royal family to let you go?"
"Father, this rumor is obviously spread by someone targeting Prince Jing's Mansion. You can't keep me locked up forever, right?"
"Why not? It's not been a day or two since Yinshan County has been without a county magistrate. It's been nearly a year since Yu Wushuang fell off a cliff and disappeared last May, and there hasn't been any trouble in Yinshan County, has there? No rush!"
The emperor's unquestionable tone made Yu Jiuer anxious, and she quickly winked at Liu Qingyun again.
Now let’s see if this newly-risen celebrity can help!
Liu Qingyun cooperated and said immediately: "Uncle, if you keep her locked up, wouldn't it be a sign of trying to cover up the truth? It would be better to release Princess Jing and let her do what she should do. I come from the people and understand their hearts best. It is better to be open and honest than to be secretive!"
The emperor thought for a moment, and gave Liu Qingyun some face, and nodded, "Well, okay! The rumor has been spreading like wildfire for two months, so go back to Yinshan if you want!"
"Thank you, Father, for your help!" Yu Jiuer laughed so hard that she forgot everything else and asked for more.
"Father, Jing'er and Xin'er have been away from Yinshan County for more than a year. Can I let them go back with me to visit their relatives? My mother raised them and has written to me many times saying that she misses them!"
"No!" The emperor slapped the table with a stern face. Yu Jiuer's words touched his reverse scale. His chest heaved and he cursed.
"Don't go too far! I have done my best by letting you return to Yinshan County to serve as the female county magistrate. If you continue to have ideas about my two beloved treasures, I will not let you off easily!"
Yu Jiuer pouted and winked at Liu Qingyun.
This time, Liu Qingyun shrugged helplessly and said to her with her eyes: The emperor is furious, I'm scared!
Yu Jiuer blinked hard: If you say one sentence, it’s worth ten sentences from me. Try it!
The emperor snorted coldly: "It's useless for anyone to plead for mercy this time!"
In one sentence, Yu Jiuer's plan to take the children back home came to nothing.
The Queen Mother also advised Yu Jiuer, "The journey is long and unsafe! If your mother misses them, let her come to the capital to visit them! You have no choice but to shoulder the heavy responsibility of Yinshan, so you can only bear the pain of missing them for now, and wait until someone takes over as the county magistrate of Yinshan County, and then you can stay with the children!"
"Oh!" Yu Jiuer could only agree!
The Queen Mother looked at Liu Qingyun kindly, and the more she looked at her, the more she liked her: "Child, why don't you stay in the palace for a few days and accompany an old lady like me?"
Liu Qingyun stood up in fear and shook her head, saying, "Grandmother, please forgive me. Qingyun is not used to the palace rules and is not used to living in the palace. Please forgive me, Grandmother!"
"You can learn the palace rules slowly. Stay a few more days and tell me about your mother!"
Liu Qingyun looked at Yu Jiuer with aggrieved eyes and signaled her for help with her eyes.
Yu Jiuer had no choice but to stand up and go over to massage the Queen Mother's shoulders, saying flatteringly, "Grandmother, this is the first time that Prince Pingnan has returned to the palace, and he is not used to it yet. Don't scare him, or he won't even dare to step into the palace gate next time!"
"Okay, okay! There's a long way to go!" The Queen Mother patted Yu Jiuer's hand and said amiably, "It seems like the three of you have a very close relationship, so you and Prince Jing should help take care of this motherless child!"
Jun Mo immediately bowed and said, "Please rest assured, Grandmother. Qingyun and I have known each other since childhood and have a great affinity. It is my duty to take care of him."
Then, the emperor rewarded Liu Qingyun in front of everyone.
In addition to obtaining the title of Prince of Pingnan, Liu Qingyun also gained two manors and a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, which made Yu Jiuer jealous.
After the reward, the Queen Mother smiled and said to Liu Qingyun, "If you don't want to stay in the palace, can you accompany me for lunch today?"
The emperor also said: "You will accompany me and your grandmother to have lunch today. Tomorrow evening, I will hold a banquet in the palace and invite all the royal relatives to come to the palace so that everyone can recognize their faces!"
"According to the order!"
During lunch, the eldest prince and the fifth prince came uninvited, saying that they were eager to meet their new cousin first.
When Yu Jiuer saw the two of them, she felt uncomfortable all over and wanted to punch them twice.
Fortunately, Jun Mo cut the Gordian knot this morning and brought the portrait to the morning court, making Liu Qingyun's life story public. Otherwise, if these people knew it first, it would be unknown whether Liu Qingyun could enter the palace alive!
They would definitely not allow the son of a killer organization to become Jun Mo's helper.
But once they acknowledge the relationship, they will have to think twice before taking action!
With the addition of these two people, they chatted from lunch to dinner. The Empress Dowager was tired and went back to the palace first. Even the Emperor went back to deal with government affairs. These two guys also pulled Jun Mo and Liu Qingyun aside to chat about family matters, so Yu Jiuer had no choice but to accompany them.
She watched the song and dance arranged by the emperor with boredom, thinking to herself: Do these two people value family affection so much? I would never believe it! They must be planning something bad!
Jun Mo adhered to the gentlemanly principle of brotherly love and respect for younger brothers and pretended to be nice to them; Liu Qingyun had just arrived and it was difficult for her to refuse, so she had to chat with them in a random manner.
It was not until night fell that the two guys stood up, still unsatisfied, and the banquet finally ended.
After leaving the dining hall, Yu Jiuer said to Jun Mo, "Are the children still in the palace school? Let's go pick them up!"
The three of them walked quickly towards the palace school together.
In the past, Jun Mo was the one who picked up and dropped off the children. Today it was a little late, and according to regulations, the children should still be resting in the special dormitory of the palace school, waiting for Jun Mo to pick them up.
But when they arrived there today, the eunuchs and palace maids who served them were all surprised and asked, "Didn't the prince order someone to take the little grandson to the main hall to have dinner together?"
"No!" Yu Jiuer's heart sank, and she immediately became alert and asked hurriedly, "Who took the little grandson away?"
The palace maids and eunuchs realized the seriousness of the situation and were so scared that they knelt on the ground and trembled.
For a moment, no one was so frightened by Yu Jiuer's question that they were speechless.
Jun Mo's brows furrowed, and he grabbed a eunuch by the collar, pulled him up to his face, and asked sternly, "If you don't speak, you will all die! Speak now!"
The eunuch trembled and said, "It is... a young eunuch. We servants never thought that there would be someone in the palace who was so bold as to pretend to be a eunuch and take away the little grandson of the emperor. Your Majesty, spare my life!"
Jun Mo threw him to the ground: "I'll deal with you later!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly flew to the roof, blew the whistle, and summoned all the royal guards on duty.
Yu Jiuer was so flustered that she almost lost her balance.
She grabbed Liu Qingyun's arm and murmured, "It must be the eldest prince and the fifth prince. I was wondering why they were so concerned about family affection and dragged you to chat. So it turned out that this was premeditated?"
She had just taken over the Black Wind Society and hadn't had the chance to take action against them, but instead they attacked her child first?
Jun Mo is a serious gentleman. When fighting with them, he always takes the brotherhood into consideration and does not use any harsh force. But she is not serious.
If anyone dares to touch her child, she will fight them to the death!
