The next morning, Mu Yunyao woke up early. Seeing that Su Qing was still asleep, she quietly put on her clothes and didn't wake her up. Just as he walked down the stairs, he saw the Titan, who was seated below.
Yuwai King originally wanted to find Mu Yunyao last night to discuss today's arrangements, but when he arrived, Mu Yunyao had already gone to bed early. Thinking that it would be very difficult for her to endure the shock during the day, he didn't wake her up.
Mu Yunyao looked at Caiyi and the others who were trembling in fear. Waving her hand to indicate for them to leave, she stepped forward and bowed to King Yue. "Greetings to Your Highness, King Yue."
Yue Yang frowned slightly as he looked at her with a warm and indulgent gaze, as if he was willing to accept anything from her. "Yunyao, I have something that I want to talk to you about."
Mu Yunyao's eyes trembled as her heart gradually tightened, "What is it?" I... "I'm sorry, but I told Imperial Aunt about Madam's identity without your permission yesterday." After leaving the palace, he thought about it carefully and felt that he had acted too impulsively. However, when he saw the expression on Grand Princess Yi's face, he understood the expectations she had for so many years …
He really couldn't hide it.
Mu Yunyao lowered her eyes, a crease appearing on her beautiful forehead. "The reason you're here today is because the Grand Princess wants to see my mother, right?"
"Yes." Yue Yang was unable to figure out what Mu Yunyao was thinking. Seeing how her head was lowered and looking at him with a strange expression, he became even more nervous, "Yunyao, Imperial Aunt has been looking forward to receiving news about our child these past few years. She's already an old girl and her health isn't that good. After all, Eldest Princess Yi De treated her king extremely well, and there was a high chance that he would report it to her. The evidence now was too little, and with the abilities of her and Eldest King Yue, they might not be able to investigate it clearly. If there was another Eldest Princess, then that would be fine.
Not necessarily.
"It's alright, since mother is always worried about her child. I'll go upstairs and tell mother about this and let her prepare."
"Yunyao …." King Yue reached out and grabbed Mu Yunyao's sleeve, then lifted his hand to help her tidy up the hairpin. "The hairpin is a bit crooked."
Mu Yunyao's breath caught in her throat as she hurriedly retreated two steps and pulled out her sleeve, "Your Highness Duke of Yue …"
Yue Yang drew back his fingers and sighed softly: "Alright, quickly go upstairs and tell Madam. We'll talk about the things between us after this period of time. How about it?"
Mu Yunyao bit her lips. After a long while, she faintly nodded her head and finally agreed.
Princess Yi De had long since stood up, frowning as she looked at the various palace uniforms, shaking her head in extreme dissatisfaction: "Is it not appropriate for me to wear palace uniforms? Would it make me seem too serious? "
Senior Servant Qu hurriedly nodded. "Indeed, it's not quite appropriate. Why don't you put on the Grand Princess's usual clothes? There's a dark purple embroidered treasure set that looks pretty good, and it's dignified and elegant."
Princess Yi De looked at the dress pointed out by Senior Servant Qu, her expression unspeakably nervous. "Is this appropriate?"
"It would be perfect if it could be matched with a simple and elegant set of jewelry."
After a moment's deliberation, Grand Princess Yi De nodded and got up to change into her clothes.
The maid served breakfast, and Senior Servant Qu advised, "Your Highness should eat something before you leave the palace."
The Grand Princess shook her head, her heart filled with nervousness. Even with the delicacies of the sea in front of her, she was unable to take a single bite. When Senior Servant Qu saw this, she didn't force the matter. She grabbed a cloak and helped the Grand Princess put it on before following her out of the hall.
After seeing Mu Yunyao, the Yuwai King went to wait at the Imperial Palace's entrance. Not long after, he saw Grand Princess Yi De walk out. "Imperial Aunt."
The Grand Princess Yi De nodded, then boarded the carriage.
In order to not attract attention, the Eldest Princess Yi De nominally left the palace to go to King Yue's mansion. After waiting for over an hour, an unremarkable carriage left the mansion through the back door.
Today, the Nebula Market hadn't opened, and the guests all understood. After all, Mu Yunyao had been framed as a murderer, and her wedding ceremony had been messed up, and her reputation had almost been ruined. She definitely wouldn't be in the mood to do business today.
The carriage stopped at the back gate of the Nebula Market, and the Winged King supported Grand Princess Yi out of the carriage. "Imperial Aunt, Madam and Yunyao are waiting inside."
Grand Princess Yi De tidied her dress, nodded, and walked in.
Her mind was spinning nonstop. She thought of the joy she'd felt when she found out that she was pregnant, the novelty of the new baby, the dispute with Xu Yan to name the baby, the panic when she found out the baby was gone …
The closer they got, the more difficult it became to walk. She was afraid that all her hopes and expectations would come to naught. She was afraid that her hopes would come to naught and that she would just be enjoying it for nothing …
Seeing that Grand Princess Yi De had stopped in her tracks, the Titan King stood quietly at one side without making a sound.
In the hall of the Nebula Pavilion, Mu Yunyao held onto Su Qing's arm and looked at her with concern. "Mother, are you alright?"
Su Qing couldn't help but tremble. With mixed emotions in her eyes, she asked, "Yao'er, what if the Su family's old mistress lied to you? What if I'm not related to the Eldest Princess?" Mu Yunyao smiled, a comforting smile on her face, "Mother, don't worry. Grand Princess Yi is different from ordinary people, even if she was able to confirm that you and the Grand Princess aren't related, as long as we sincerely apologize, she wouldn't make any accusations.
"Since I have such worries, I can live my life peacefully afterwards. I don't need to think about it too much."
Su Qing took a deep breath to ease the tension in her heart. Hearing footsteps outside the door, she tightened her grip on Mu Yunyao's hand, "Grand Princess Yi De has a distinguished identity. Following the etiquette, we should go out and welcome her. Yao`er, accompany me there."
"Alright." Mu Yunyao opened the door.
Princess Yi De was standing at the foot of the stairs. She raised her head when she heard the door opening and met Su Qing's gaze.
The street was bustling with noise and excitement, but the backyard of the Nebula Market was exceptionally quiet, and the sound of falling leaves could almost be heard.
Grand Princess Yi De's finger was trembling, and the joy in her eyes suddenly surged. All the longing and expectation she had accumulated over the years turned into surging tears, rolling down her face.
Seeing her tears, Su Qing couldn't help but take two steps forward. When she came back to her senses, she quickly bowed and greeted, "Greetings, Your Highness."
Grand Princess Yi De staggered forward to greet him. Her hands trembled as she helped Su Qing up. After a few tries, she said hoarsely, "Child, my child … …" This was her child. Even without any investigation or evidence, she was still able to recognize that this was her child! The feeling of being connected by blood could not fool people! Her child was back, finally!
