Chapter 251: Messy
Chapter 251: Messy
Seeing Chu Jun's happy face, Chu Qianyu was also happy for her mother and the others. However, seeing Yunying still fainted, she became a little worried. Her mother was a little older now, and it might not be so easy for her to give birth to a child. She just hoped that everything would go smoothly. It seemed that she would have to check her mother's pulse after some time to make sure everything was safe.
After Chu Jun calmed down, Chu Qianyu said, "Father, please take mother back to rest. I have some things to deal with. We will come to pick you up and take you back home when you are ready."
"Okay, okay." Chu Jun was too happy for a moment, and only then did he come to his senses. Seeing Yunying still lying on the ground, he quickly picked her up.
Then he said to the two of them: "Then you go back first and be careful. I won't see you off."
"Well, father will go back first. We will leave later." Chu Qianyu said.
Mo Yinan also nodded slightly to Chu Jun to let him rest assured.
After Chu Jun carried Yunying away, Chu Qianyu and the others walked outside.
As soon as they entered the city gate, the servants of the palace hurried over to report: "Your Majesty, Princess, the old lady of General Chu's mansion and others are all in front of our palace now, saying they want to see the princess. We said you and the princess are not here now, but they said they will not leave until they see you two today."
"It's no use for them to keep making trouble outside the palace, so the old princess has invited them into the palace now."
After listening to this, the two looked at each other, and Chu Qianyu said, "Yinling, hurry up the carriage. Return home as soon as possible."
Then he said to the servant who came to deliver the message: "Go and tell mother not to bother with them for now. The prince and I will be back soon."
"Yes."
After everyone left, Chu Qianyu looked at Mo Yinan and said with some self-blame: "I had expected them to come a long time ago, and we tried our best to rush back without wasting time, but we didn't expect them to come so soon. This time, mother is in trouble."
"No, you know what kind of personality your mother has after living with her for so many days. She gets irritated at the slightest provocation. Not scolding them is the least of your worries." Mo Yinan said.
But he was right. The Regent's Palace was extremely lively at that moment.
The old princess looked at the old lady sitting below and said unhappily, "Why are you coming to the palace to make trouble so late at night! If you didn't know that our two families are relatives, you would think we are enemies!"
"Madam Mo, I really have run into difficulties this time, so I have to come to the palace. I am really sorry. I hope you can lend a hand and rescue my grandson from prison. After all, he is still young." The old lady was moved and her eyes were slightly red as if she was really forced into a desperate situation.
The old princess would never listen to her one-sided story. She snorted coldly and said, "Why didn't they arrest other people and put them in jail? Why did they arrest your grandson? Did he commit a crime? I'm telling you, our palace has been a clean family for generations and we will never protect anyone who has made a mistake."
"Since you dare to make a mistake, you should be prepared to be punished, instead of looking for connections to get someone to rescue your grandson. If the people outside knew about this, they would say that we in the Regent Palace do not abide by the rules and disciplines and are defying the law."
Before the old lady could speak, Chu Yue retorted, "Madam Mo, you are wrong. It was that Marquis who relied on his noble status. My son just accidentally touched him and he beat him up. Not only that, he also directly put my son in jail. If there is any criticism, it should be him who is making up stories."
"Yue'er, shut up. Don't lose your composure." The old lady waited for her to finish before scolding her.
There were some things that she was not comfortable saying, but Chu Yue was just a commoner and did not understand what a noble status was, so she could naturally say these things.
"Did he touch it accidentally? Ha! I heard that the kid beat the young master of Pingyang Marquis's mansion with a whip. Old Madam Chu must know how much Pingyang Marquis values the young master." The old princess looked at them with a smile.
"That...that was because that kid relied on his noble status to bully my son, otherwise my son wouldn't be like that." Chu Yue still said stubbornly.
As soon as I finished speaking, applause came from outside the door.
Chu Qianyu clapped her hands and walked into the hall, mocking, "Aunt is really good at telling lies. From what I know, Song Liang beats and scolds the maids in the mansion. Now the servants in the mansion want to avoid Song Liang when they see him. There are even a few maids who have been beaten to the point of being disabled by him."
"Now tell me who else can bully your son. And Marquis Pingyang is very dedicated to teaching this young prince, but he will never use his status to oppress others."
Chu Yue was furious after hearing this, and pointed at Chu Qianyu and said, "I am your aunt after all, but you don't help your own family but speak for others. Has your heart been bitten by a dog?"
"Please be careful with your words. If you continue to speak to my princess like this, don't blame me for being rude." Mo Yinan stepped forward and looked at Chu Yue, anger flashing in his eyes, and said in a cold voice.
Chu Yue was frightened by his pressure and took a few steps back. Her expression was no longer as arrogant as before.
She lowered her voice and said, "I'm also worried about Liang'er getting into trouble. We really don't have any other options. She's still young. Qianyu, can you help me and tell that Pingyang Hou to release Liang'er?"
Chu Qianyu and Mo Yinan stepped forward and sat down.
She did not reply directly to her words, but said to the old princess: "Mother, it's noisy here, why don't you go back and rest first? The prince and I will take care of these things."
The old princess looked at the people standing below, and then looked at Mo Yinan. Although their relationship has eased now, Qianqian is pregnant now. What if this boy suddenly becomes abnormal? Forget it, she is still a little worried.
So she said, "It's okay, mother is here. If anyone dares to bully you, mother and Nan'er will take care of it for you. Don't worry, mother won't get too involved, just handle it yourself."
"Okay then." Chu Qianyu agreed reluctantly. She had originally thought that these things would bother her mother, and wanted to make her worry less. But she didn't expect her mother to be so worried about her that she didn't want to leave. So forget it.
Then she turned to the old lady and said, "Grandma, if I remember correctly, you are also a second-rank imperial lady. Why don't you go to the Pingyang Marquis's mansion and plead for me?"
After hearing this, the old lady remembered that she had been there earlier, but was turned away, which made her feel completely embarrassed.
Being brought up by her, he felt extremely embarrassed and said with a little annoyance, "I went there earlier, but the people from Pingyang Marquis' Mansion were not there. Otherwise, why would I bring them here to beg you?"
She also thought about the troubles she had caused by calling these people over these days. Aunt Liu had persuaded her earlier to be soft on this damn girl. She was told to find a way to get rid of these people so that the mansion would be more peaceful.
Her tone softened a little as she spoke: "Qianyu, this is my grandmother begging you. She is your aunt's son after all. Please help her."
Chu Qianyu chuckled and said, "How can I help? You know how much Pingyang Hou cherishes this young master. Now he is whipping the young master in the street. If I say that Pingyang Hou didn't kill him directly, it would be an understatement."
