Chapter 484
Although Old Madam Wei has not met Gu Zezhi yet, she has already met Madam Xiao. They met when Madam Xiao visited Jiangnan, after she arrived at her maternal family’s manor, in the first half of the year, she made a special trip to visit them.
Truth be told, before meeting the person, Old Madam Wei was somewhat worried that Madam Xiao would not be able to get sand out of her eyes and would look down on her granddaughter because of the matter between Madam Xiao and Duan Wangye.
However, after meeting the person personally, she had a very positive impression of Madam Xiao. She could see that the other person was well educated and reasonable, and she valued her granddaughter as her future daughter-in-law very much. In addition, the Xiao family had a great reputation for Jiangnan, and Empress Wei praised Gu Zezhi in her letters. Thus, Old Madam Wei was extremely satisfied with the marriage between her granddaughter and Gu Zezhi.
Old Madam Wei stroked her sleeve and added, “I’ve already handed Madam Xiao a greeting card, and I will go visit her tomorrow.”
Anyhow, Duan Wang’s fu was in a mess so it would be great if Qin Jiu did not have to go to the western border, otherwise, she would have to get involved with Duan Wangye and the others. Would this not make her life more troublesome?
Old Madam Wei continued. “Madam Xiao said last time that our family’s dragon’s wells were good, and this time I purposely brought her some more from Jiangnan.”
Just then, Xiao Kouzi came in and reported with a smile. “Empress, the second prince’s consort seeks an audience.”
Empress Wei: “…”
The smile on the corner of Empress Wei’s face slightly faded, she knew that Tang Fengchun must have come for Gu Xi and Country Princess Duan Rou.
Since the morning court three days ago, the case of the palace being put on fire has been officially settled. Stating, Gu Xi sent someone to burn down the Tai’an Palace and replaced Imperial Consort Fang with a substitute, providing complete evidence and witnesses.
The emperor also issued an imperial edict to Yuzhou, asking Wang Yu to severely punish Gu Xi, if Wang Yu could not be cruel to his son, he should return him back to the capital.
Not many people in the government and the public knew that Gu Xi was currently in the imperial prison. It was only assumed that he, County Princess Duan Rou, and Imperial Consort Fang all fled back to Yuzhou.
The corner of Empress Wei’s lips moved into a half-smile, as she said gently. “Tell the second princess that I had guests today so I won’t be able to see her.”
Thus, Xiao Kouzi exited the Eastern Side Hall and truthfully delivered the message to Tang Fengchun.
Tang Fengchun waited under the eaves of the main hall of Fengluan Palace, wearing a thick black cloak adorned with mink fur. The cold wind howled outside, causing her cheeks to blush slightly.
Glancing towards the direction of the east side hall where Xiao Kouzi had just walked, the begonia-red brocade curtain was still swaying slightly, reflected in her bright and dark pupils.
With a faint smile on Tang Fengchun’s face, she said to Xiao Kouzi accordingly. “I’m sorry for your trouble, then I won’t bother imperial mother.”
She then turned around and walked away. In the moment she turned around, the smile on her lips disappeared and her face remained expressionless.
In the gloomy sky, heavy snowflakes with goose feathers floated up and fluttered like willow catkins in the sky. fr(e)enovelkiss
Tang Fengchun gathered her cloak and walked forward against the cold wind, feeling heavy in her heart.
