MTL - On the Day the Scumbag Got Married, I Lay Flat and Became His Sister-in-law-Chapter 220 Either way, he would know that Zi Mo was his eldest son.
Chapter 220 Everyone will know that Zi Mo is his eldest son
"Responding to His Royal Highness, there were many witnesses to the auction at the food festival last time. At that time, Princess Yongjia was against Minnv repeatedly. It was Princess Yongjia who was rich and powerful. Minnv was not the opponent of Princess Yongjia. She lost to Princess, why did His Highness accuse the women of the common people instead?" Gu Xiyan replied neither humble nor overbearing.
Princess Duanqing slammed her palm on the table: "Stop blurring the point! Let me ask you, are you colluding with Jixianglou to deliberately raise the bid to lure Yongjia into the pit?!"
"The min'er didn't collude with Jixianglou, why did His Highness pour dirty water on the min'er?!" Gu Xiyan straightened her spine and said frankly: "It is clear that the princess told me not only to rob my fiancé-in-law , and want to **** everything I fancy. As soon as I bid, the princess followed suit. It was the princess who was deliberately confronting me! The princess also said at the time that she would ask His Majesty to marry her, and that she would marry Zhou The son, being a flat wife, said that I was not her opponent. At that time, there were a lot of onlookers, and they all witnessed how aggressive the princess was, and His Royal Highness the eldest princess can find those people to confront her."
"What a sharp-toothed so-called noble lady!" Princess Duanqing sneered and curled her lips.
The old lady frowned when she heard the words, and then said: "Everyone knows what kind of temper our sister Xi has. She has a gentle temper and never fights with others. If Princess Yongjia didn't bully others too much, sister Xi I will definitely not start a dispute with Princess Yongjia. Please learn from the empress dowager!"
Early when the queen mother "invited" Gu Xiyan over, she planned to use court lynching on Gu Xiyan.
There are many lynchings in the inner palace, and Madam Zhao is a master at using lynchings. Once Madam Zhao makes a move, no one can survive, and she believes that Gu Xiyan is no exception.
But Mrs. Liu also followed.
Marquis Wanqing is a close minister of the emperor, and Marquis Wanqing's mansion is one of the most prestigious in the aristocratic circle of the capital. Otherwise, after Zhou Xing resigned from Gu Xiyan's marriage, he would not have proposed marriage to Liu Chaoyan so soon.
The Queen Mother has been immersed in the harem for many years, and she knows that Emperor Chengde is not an emperor who can be manipulated at will. Before that, the mother-child relationship between her and Emperor Chengde had been maintained very well.
If she tortures Gu Xiyan in front of Mrs. Liu today, I'm afraid the emperor will not be able to explain it.
Just when the Queen Mother was hesitating, another voice from the Hou family's servant sounded: "Master Zhou, please stop..."
Before Jia Ding finished his sentence, a man in a scarlet official robe came striding forward.
It was Zhou Mu who came.
The moment the Queen Mother and Princess Duanqing saw Zhou Mu's face clearly, their eyes lit up.
I saw that this young man was straight and slender, with a pine-like standing posture, a handsome face, and a noble demeanor, like a banished fairy descended from the sky.
No wonder Yongjia was fascinated when he saw Zhou Mu. Who wouldn't love such a peerless appearance?
Zhou Mu entered the hall, immediately stood next to Gu Xiyan, looked her up and down, and after confirming that she was fine, the breath hanging in his heart finally landed safely.
Gu Xiyan knew his worry, so she gave him a comforting look, expressing that she was fine, so don't let him worry.
Zhou Mu patted her head, with the intention of comforting her.
Afterwards, he greeted the Queen Mother and Princess Duanqing, saluted the old lady, and explained the purpose of his visit: "I heard that the Queen Mother called Xiyan over to ask questions, so I came here specially. If it is for the Jixianglou Food Festival What happened, I was also there at the time, so I can just be a personal witness."
The Queen Mother finally came to her senses from Zhou Mu's incomparable beauty at this moment. Can you believe that Master Zhou came here in a hurry to protect Gu Xiyan?
"Yongjia insisted that Gu Xiyan deliberately set up a trap to make her jump, and Miss Gu cheated her of hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. Besides, Yongjia also said that the reason why her appearance was destroyed was because of Gu's obstruction!" The Queen Mother calmly said: "The Ai family has sent people to investigate the records of Jixianglou..."
"If you go back to the Empress Dowager, the minister of Jixianglou's record book just happened to bring it over, please look at it, Queen Mother!" Zhou Mu stepped forward and handed over the Jixianglou's record book.
The Queen Mother took a deep look at Zhou Mu, took the record book, and after reading it carefully, she found that there was no problem. The shopkeeper who recorded the file ten years ago was Wu Tong.
She frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Even if there is no problem with keeping the records, it doesn't mean that Mrs. Gu has no relationship with Wu Tong in private. How about this, bring everyone from Jixianglou here, and the Ai family will have to interrogate them in person!"
Zhou Mu looked at Gu Xiyan, and couldn't help feeling a little worried. He had already guessed that Gu Xiyan was behind Jixianglou's food festival.
The Food Festival is held on such a large scale, and there are many cooks participating, but if there is a wrong word, the Queen Mother will not let Gu Xiyan go easily.
But he thought about it, isn't there him? Even if everyone knows that Gu Xiyan is behind the food festival, so what?
Princess Yongjia voluntarily entered the set, and no one forced Princess Yongjia. Obviously Princess Yongjia's ingenuity was not the first to fall into Xiyan's trick. She can only blame Princess Yongjia for being stupid.
Gu Xiyan received Zhou Mu's gaze, and deeply doubted whether Zhou Mu knew that she was the behind-the-scenes shopkeeper of Jixianglou.
She and Zhou Mu looked at each other, and stood aside calmly, without any panic on their faces.
After the Queen Mother gave an order, someone went to Jixianglou to bring him over for questioning.
The shopkeeper and assistants of Jixiang Building hadn't arrived yet, but Emperor Chengde came to Xuanchanghou's Mansion.
Neither the Queen Mother nor Princess Duanqing expected that Emperor Chengde would suddenly visit.
Everyone in the room was paying respects to Emperor Chengde, but Emperor Chengde stood in front of Zhou Mu and Gu Xiyan, and took the lead in waiving their salute.
Emperor Chengde patted Zhou Mu's shoulder lightly, looking at Zhou Mu with a very loving look.
The Queen Mother saw this detail in her eyes and frowned slightly.
Emperor Chengde has been on the throne for more than ten years, and he is very powerful. Even when facing other princes and princesses, the Queen Mother has never seen such a loving look in the eyes of Emperor Chengde.
Now, the look in Zhou Mu's eyes was so loving that she thought she was dazzled.
After Emperor Chengde took his seat, the Queen Mother asked, "Why is the emperor, a busy man, out of the palace?"
"I heard that something happened to Yongjia, so I came to see it specially, I didn't want it to be so lively."
While Emperor Chengde was speaking, he saw Zhou Mu standing side by side with Gu Xiyan, and the more he looked at him, the more he liked him: "Zi Mo and Gu Yatou are really a match made in heaven."
The love in his eyes couldn't be concealed, nor did he have any intention of hiding it.
After a while, everyone will know that Zi Mo is his eldest son.
Seeing this, Princess Duanqing sneered.
Brother Huang said that he came to see Yongjia, but he never mentioned Yongjia again. Instead, he praised Gu Xiyan and Zhou Mu for being a good match. Brother Huang, is this aimed at an outsider?
It's just that she is unhappy, but she still has to go along with it.
I was drowsy, but when I saw the score rose to 9.1, haha, I felt sober again in an instant. Thank you little fairies for your support.
