Chapter 1057: When the Wall Falls, Everyone Pushes It Down

    

on, wishing she could applaud grandma's performance.When Guo realized she wasn't getting any benefit, she completely lost it, jumping up and shouting angrily."A bunch of heartless scoundrels, you're n...Jiayin sighed and gently stroked Princess San's forehead, where the bangs had been blown about by the explosion. "Silly girl, you're thinking too much! We don't need to talk about what happened back then, after all, no one actually saw it with their own eyes."

“Speaking only of the present, under Emperor Uncle’s rule, Tianwu is experiencing peace and prosperity. The country flourishes, the people live in harmony, and even Jiangbei will soon be retaken. With all the world's hearts turning towards him, Emperor Uncle’s prestige is boundless. He is far removed from the days when he first ascended to the throne and was controlled by the Empress Dowager.”

"And most importantly, haven't you considered how long it's been since the Empress Dowager has asked us to pay our respects"

The third princess blinked several times, then suddenly jumped up and exclaimed in surprise.

"That's right, that's right, she hasn't caused us any trouble for a long time Hasn't the emperor put her in her place already!"

Jia Yin couldn't pick up the thread of this conversation and could only offer a couple of pointers.

She stretched and said, “What about dinner Even though it’s hot outside, I still want to make braised pork belly. I'll also do some salt and pepper shrimp and sweet and sour spare ribs. For the cold dishes, how about candied nuts with spinach and a peacock’s opening dish What do you think”

"Alright, alright!" The third princess nodded happily, "As long as everything you make is delicious!"

She was free from worry and her appetite had returned. She urged Jia Yin to cook, even pleading, "Jia Yin, could you make me another soup please"

"No way!" Jia Yin firmly refused, "If you want to give it away, do it yourself. What use would I be What if someone found out and thought I had eyes for your Brother Lu! I can't be wrongly accused of that!"

My future husband must be a legendary hero, he should come to marry me riding on rainbow clouds, wearing golden armor!

Jia Yin pretended to be joking, but she revealed her true feelings.

Unfortunately, the third princess didn't understand at all. She messed up her hair and laughed until her stomach hurt.

"You're thinking about getting married already at such a young age! And talking about golden armor and seven-colored auspicious clouds Don't think I don't know, this is just the monkey from the story you told! Dare you marry a monkey, your whole family will probably go crazy!"

Jia Yin rolled her eyes and gave up completely.

For a princess like the third one, who's as thick-headed as a highway, just speak plainly from now on. Don't waste time trying to be subtle.

Pure waste of feelings!

The two young ladies giggled and went to the kitchen. When dusk fell, dinner was ready, and a lunchbox filled with soup was also sent to the Lu family.

Of course, Tang Shui still moved her hands with water and clouds, the Third Princess opened her mouth, but Jia Yin didn't meddle even a finger…

After a satisfying meal and a round of mahjong, as usual, the inspection of the property revealed no issues. Everyone then rested.

And Jia Yin half-opened the window, chin resting on her hand, watching Mu Xu across the table shovel down white rice with braised pork.

The red braised pork was cut into mahjong-sized pieces, stewed until soft and tender. Picking up a piece, the meat trembled as it dripped with oil—that moment was truly irresistible.

Mu Xu ate until she was full, but she didn't forget to gossip with Jia Yin.

I went to the Lu family's place myself. That Young Master Lu is truly cunning, putting on an act so convincingly, you can't tell if his injuries are real or fake! When I have some free time later, I must...

Mid-sentence, he looked up and met Jia Yin's slightly narrowed eyes. He instantly sobered up and awkwardly explained, "I was just curious, that's all! And I finished all the important business. Going to the Lu family was just out of my way!"

Jia Yin hummed softly, suddenly remembering what the third princess had said.

Whether she can marry a hero in the future is uncertain.

But… monkeys, it's actually quite possible!

Mu Xu still didn't know that his dashing and carefree soul had already been labeled as a silly monkey.

At this point, he finally got down to business. "The old master said he will be starting sick leave tomorrow and staying at the Earl's Mansion. The Liu family is also not planning on getting involved."

Only Mr. Wen was enthusiastic, saying that the court needed eyes from home and he wanted to follow everything from beginning to end.

Jia Yin nodded. Second Uncle was an idler and when he fell ill, no one said anything.

On the Liu family's side, Old Master Liu has been "sick" for a long time. Whether he is critically ill is common knowledge to everyone.

Li Zhiheng is a filial son, it is also right to serve by his bed.

Only Mr. Wen, this censor, who is known as the voice of the court, could possibly escape this commotion...

This arrangement is best.

Jia Yin felt relieved, and her family members also thought it was very appropriate.

But plans have never changed quickly, or as they say, "The tree wants to be still but the wind doesn't stop."

At the small court meeting held the next day, someone was exposed again. It was still orchestrated by the Empress Dowager, who had them commit terrible deeds, listed clearly and explicitly.

But what was different was that seven or eight officials stepped forward, eloquently condemning the Empress Dowager with impassioned speeches and flying words, urging the Emperor to put aside his filial feelings and restore order to the court!

These are all smart people, or those who think the current situation is profitable.

The Empress Dowager could have retaliated since the grand assembly days ago, if she had intended to.

The reason for the silence is that the Empress Dowager has already had her claws removed, and even been controlled.

When a wall falls, the first person to rush up, although still somewhat dangerous, reaps the greatest benefit!

The Emperor still shook his head, making excuses for the Empress Dowager and refusing to conduct a thorough investigation.

For a time, the situation became tense again.

Some people are unwilling to take the risk of joining a side, or some who have unclean backgrounds are afraid of being implicated, so they can't help but create disturbances...

Because Lao Er Li was ill, the gates of the Earl's Mansion were closed tight. Unless it was an emergency, they wouldn't even open the side door.

But on this very day, at high noon, someone arrived in a carriage.

The young attendant guarding the door heard a knock, so he opened a small window on the door and shouted, "Who's there Is something the matter"

A woman stood outside the door, smiling as she slipped a purse through the small window. She whispered, "Please trouble this young sir to inform your mistress that my wife has come to visit."

As she spoke, she handed him a card.

The maidservant didn't know why the visitor had come and dared not stop them, so she replied with a sound and ran to report.

Recently, Wa'ner has been staying in the backyard with nothing to do but take care of her child and embroider to pass the time.

It's hot weather, so I sewed a few summer dresses for my niece.

The son is naughty and has to change several sets of clothes every day.

Her household caravan was about to set off again, and she still wanted to prepare a few long shirts for her husband who was far away in the southwest.

She also wanted to show her filial piety in Quanzhou.

Although her nieces and sisters-in-law are there, grandma will definitely not lack clothing and shoes.

But hers is hers, and theirs is theirs.

At this moment, the maidservants had nothing to do, so they all gathered together to help sort through the fabrics and embroidery threads.

Three women, one play. When there are many women, gossip is naturally the main theme.

Just as things were getting lively, a new post popped up, leaving Wan'er quite puzzled.

Upon opening it, the author of the post turned out to be a Mrs. Feng.

I had seen her twice at banquets hosted by the Jia family before. I remembered her as being eloquent and charming.

She seemed to be the daughter-in-law of a cousin of Madam Jia, from her own family.

If it were a normal day of socializing, encountering a few polite greetings would be fine.

Given the current circumstances, why would this unfamiliar Mrs. Feng come to visit What could she possibly want

Wǎn'ěr frowned.
