MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 480 Re-enter the palace

"Wei Jialian is also cruel. After returning home, she drank abortion pills and brought out the baby at such an old age. Sure enough, it was still a boy. She was wrapped in blood swaddling clothes and sent back to the Fourth Prince's Mansion. I heard that she was so frightened. Everyone in the prince’s palace is panicking.”

When Gu Shaoyu told the news, Du Jingyi was also in tears.

For her, if her husband betrays her, then the child will only be born as a child of the Du family, and will never be coerced by anyone else. Like Wei Jialian, who directly killed the child and sent it back to her ex-husband's family, She really couldn't do it.

However, she won't criticize too much.

After all, I can bear it because my mother-in-law’s family is considerate and I have the confidence to raise the child well, so I don’t see her suffering and don’t say anything bad about her.

 “Then what are the plans of the Fourth Prince’s Mansion now?”

“Of course she is completely separated from the Wei family, but there is news that the Dingpinghou Mansion is already selecting a suitable girl to send to the Fourth Prince’s Mansion. It is estimated that there will be another happy event in the Fourth Prince’s Mansion in the past few days.”

"So fast?"

　　When Du Jingyi asked this question, he quickly reacted.

It's okay not to be unhappy. If the emperor swallows it in one breath, the fourth prince will have to observe mourning for one year. Who knows whether the connection between Dingping Houfu and him will be as close as before. After all, the biggest connection is Wu'er. No, I heard that Concubine Jia was also seriously ill in bed.

 So, before Gu Shaoyu opened his mouth, she had already figured out a lot.

"What about Shang Qilang? Is there any movement? If Mrs. Wei knew that her good son had teamed up with the Dingping Marquis to do this, what do you think she would think?"

　　When Mrs. Wei was mentioned, the disdain in Gu Shaoyu's eyes was very obvious. Then he took a sip of the tea at hand before speaking slowly.

"After doing so much, it is natural that the Wei family should know about it. Mrs. Wei has been plotting against so many people for so many years, so it's time for her to taste the feeling of being stabbed in the back by her family. Princess Fu is also a vicious person. Good job cleaning it up too!"

“General, do you have any ideas?”

"The Wei family has better ways to deal with them than I do."

Mrs. Wei came from Taiwei's Mansion. If it weren't for her mother's family gaining power in recent years, both the Gu family and the Duke's Mansion would have been in decline, and it would not have been her turn to uplift the noble concubine. Therefore, she and the Wei family have been mutually beneficial for so many years. Now Mr. Gu Yu wanted to see if his family, which had always been close to each other, still showed unity at this time!

 After saying this, he drank all the tea in his hand.

"By the way, the queen sent someone to send a message, saying that a banquet will be held at Changchun Palace the day after tomorrow to welcome you and the children."

 “As a concubine? And the children? How could it be?”

“In the mother-in-law’s words, there are three children in one pregnancy. It’s such a good omen that we have to do something big, but it won’t be the children’s two-year-old banquet, so we can just have a simple meal in the Changchun Palace.”

 Having a simple meal, there is nothing simple about this royal banquet.

Although Du Jingyi was a little surprised, since the news had been sent, if they didn't go, it would mean they didn't understand the rules, so he asked immediately.

 “Who else did the empress invite?”

“East Palace, the Guo family, our family, naturally the Earl of Weiyuan’s Mansion and the Li family that you miss so much.”

Du Jingyi smiled when he heard about the Li family.

“Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from the general.”

"If this relationship can really be settled, it will be a good thing for my sister-in-law and Ping'er. My father can't hold on much longer, and Ping'er should be on his own." "Dad, has his illness still not improved?"

"No."

Gu Shaoyu did not tell the story of Mrs. Wei's ill treatment of the Duke Shang Yukuan. Firstly, he did not want her to worry about it, and secondly, there was no need. His situation was not necessarily any better than that of the emperor. So it is impossible to tell who is in front and who is behind.

Hence, he did not intend to say such things that would make people feel guilty.

In the future, even if my father has a grudge in his heart and wants to scold him in his sleep, he can just scold him alone. There is no need for his wife and sister-in-law to bear the responsibility.

 So, I suppressed my thoughts and talked about other things with Du Jingyi.

"Brother Tai will be three years old in a few days. After these things are over, I plan to take him to live in the Huben Army for ten days and a half, so that he can develop his delicate temperament and support it in the future. If the Gu family only knows wealth and honors but doesn’t understand suffering, then it won’t work.”

Du Jingyi has no objection to this.

"It's up to the general to decide. Brother Tai likes General Mu very much now. Maybe he will see everything new in the military camp."

What Du Jingyi said reminded Gu Shaoyu of the days when he first entered the military camp with his grandfather when he was a child. At that time, he was accompanied by several cousins. He persisted until the third day and couldn't help crying.

 So, he was also curious, when will Tiger start crying?

 Outside the window, the sprouting branches are growing harder and harder, while inside the house, it is warm and cozy.

 Two days passed by in a flash.

 Everyone in the Gu family got up early to prepare for entering the palace.

The banquet at Changchun Palace was scheduled for noon, but they didn’t really go there for that meal, so it was natural to go earlier.

 This time is also the first time that the three brothers have shown their faces in front of the powerful people in Sui'an City, so the Gu family also attaches great importance to it.

For example, Brother Tai has a certain status, so his clothes have rules and regulations. However, the three brothers usually wear comfortable and simple clothes, so it is certainly not appropriate to wear something like that to meet the Queen. .

Fortunately, Eunuch Hu in the Changchun Palace is also a careful person. When he sent the news, he sent over several sets of clothes prepared by the Inner Court Division. So today, no one can say anything wrong for the three brothers to change into. Come on.

As for Gu Shaoyu and Du Jingyi, they are both high-class people. Since it is a palace banquet, they must wear proper court clothes.

 Therefore, everyone in the Xitang Courtyard was careful and treated them seriously, not daring to make the slightest mistake.

After getting dressed up, everyone left the gate of Xitang Courtyard.

The elder sister-in-law, Mrs. Liu and Heping'er, were also ready. Only Mrs. Du and his wife stayed at home, looking forward to their early return.

 When the carriage and horses were driving towards the imperial city, Du Jingyi was still a little nervous.

After all, the last time she went there was the day when she and Mrs. Gu entered the palace to resign. Now three years have passed and she is still the same, but Queen Guo may not be the same Queen Guo as before.

 He glanced at his sister-in-law Liu who was sitting next to her. Du Jingyi relaxed a little because of her reserved and forced look. After reaching out and shaking her hand, Du Jingyi said comfortingly.
