The Rebirth of the First Daughter as the Head of the Family

Chapter 53 The Orphan
Song Jinyue helped her grandmother get up and walked into the main hall.

"Just arrived, grandma, did word come from the palace?"

Helping the grandmother to sit down, Song Jinyue squatted in front of the grandmother, holding back for her.

Nanny Jia backed out tactfully.

Seeing her granddaughter asking, Mrs. Zhang added a bit of sadness to her face, sighed, and then said, "Hey, it's not about your prince's cousin!"

Mrs. Zhang was a little disappointed when she mentioned this grandson who wanted to be honest and honest.

"What happened?" Song Jinyue felt a little anxious.

Three months ago, there was a severe drought in the southwest, and the emperor specially ordered the prince to go to the southwest to fight the drought.

But in the previous life, the prince's cousin only returned to the capital the day before New Year's Eve. Now, according to his grandmother, could the prince's cousin come back early?

"Your aunt invited your aunt to go to the palace to discuss, and the child Zhi'er followed into the palace. The empress wrote, saying that the crown prince had returned to Beijing, which made Longyan furious."

Mrs. Zhang slapped her palm on the table, thinking of what her eldest daughter said in her letter, Mrs. Zhang became very angry.

"For some reason, an orphan girl was rescued in the southwest, and she was brought back to the capital yesterday, so she submitted a paper to make the orphan girl a crown princess!"

There was a gloomy light in the old lady's eyes, and her face was full of fear.

This has never happened before.

Song Jinyue became suspicious, could it be that this orphan girl looks like a fairy?What made the crown prince's cousin so caring?

Due to the high status of the relatives of the Zhang family, the aunt did not find a candidate for the crown princess for a while, and worried that the emperor would fear that she would win over court officials for his son, so she simply delayed.

Fortunately, the prince has always kept himself clean, honest and honest.

In the past few years in the capital, there has never been any gossip with any lady.

Song Jinyue personally served tea for her grandmother, and persuaded her a few more words to make her feel at ease.

She went into the palace to have a look and see if she could be of any help, Mrs. Zhang naturally did not refuse, and asked Zhang's carriage to personally escort her into the palace.

Because the prince grew up with Song Jinyue since childhood, he also cherishes this cousin very much.

Presumably, a granddaughter came forward to persuade him, and I am afraid that the confused grandson who is now blinded by lard can change his mind.

So that this matter can end sooner or later, if the stalemate continues, I'm afraid this year will be an uneasy life!
Song Jinyue took Qiu Yun into Zhangfu's carriage and went straight to the palace.

Because her aunt gave her a jade card, she could enter the palace to speak at any time.

The guards at the gate of the palace saw that it was the second lady of Duke Song's mansion, and the jade card in her hand was a gift from the Empress Empress, so naturally they let her in without stopping her.

This time, my aunt was sick and didn't know that she was entering the palace, so she didn't send someone to pick her up.

Fortunately, Song Jinyue was able to touch the entrance of the palace with her eyes closed.

The palace road with red walls and green tiles in the palace is as dead and silent as before.

Song Jinyue quickened her steps and headed for Zhaohua Hall, her aunt's bedroom.

"Second Miss Song?"

Song Jinyue just stepped into the Zhaohua Palace, and bumped into Xiangxiu who was about to leave in a hurry.

"Sister Xiangxiu, I'm going to see my aunt, and I'll drop by to see my aunt."

Song Jinyue explained the purpose of her visit, and Xiangxiu finally understood, "Second Miss Song, go in first, I'm going to find His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Sister Xiangxiu, go get busy."

Xiangxiu just saluted and hurried out of Zhaohua Hall.

Song Jinyue watched her go away, and then went down the corridor to Zhaohua Hall.

Gong'e of Zhaohua Palace was guarding the outside, the gate inside the palace was closed tightly, and there was a faint sobbing and mourning sound from inside, it was the voice of my aunt.

Gong'e of Zhaohua Palace was about to pass on the transmission, Song Jinyue waved her hand, indicating that the palace's eunuch didn't need to pass on the transmission, she just waited outside.

The maid gave up and went to bring her another cup of tea.

Song Jinyue stood guard under the long corridor in front of the palace gate, looking at the large black lacquer vats in the four corners of the courtyard, the fruity lotus pods inside were still half green, and in a while, the lotus pods would be ripe.

This is the door of the palace pushed open from inside, "Cousin?"

Song Jinyue was fascinated by watching, when Cousin Zhi's voice pulled her back.

She looked back.

"When did you come? Wait for a long time, it's cold outside, let's wait in the hall's compartment first." Zhang Dingzhi dragged Song Jinyue into Zhaohua Hall after speaking.

The aunt's sobs could be heard from time to time.

"My aunt is sick and resting on the couch, and my mother is accompanying my aunt." Zhang Dingzhi's eyes fell on the direction of the queen's couch compartment, with a gloomy expression.

As soon as I entered the palace yesterday, I saw my aunt was sickly, her whole body was not as good as before, she looked rather dilapidated.

Song Jinyue didn't say a word, and after walking through the cubicle, the two sat down together.

Then she asked, "Cousin Zhi, when I came here just now, I saw that Aunt Xiangxiu was going to invite the prince's cousin to come. Does my aunt have something to discuss with the prince's cousin?"

Zhang Dingzhi shook his head and sighed, thinking of that cousin, he felt a little bit of hatred for the lack of steel, "Your Majesty came to visit my aunt today, and specially ordered that if the prince's cousin doesn't send the orphan girl away, Let's go, I want the crown prince to go out of the palace..."

In this dynasty, no matter whether the crown prince or the prince, he moved out of the palace only when he got married or became a king.

What His Majesty meant was that he would not agree to the orphan girl becoming the Crown Princess.

Then there is only one intention, which is to abolish the position of the crown prince and demote him to be a prince...

This is undoubtedly a great humiliation to the queen and the Zhang family.

But now, the crown prince didn't listen to it at all, and he was all focused on the orphan girl.

Song Jinyue was shocked, the prince's cousin would fight against his aunt because of the orphan girl?
She was quite disappointed for a moment.

But when she thought of her aunt's illness, she couldn't help worrying again.

Mrs. Xie came to call her daughter to go to the queen, and when she saw her niece coming, she asked her to go with her.

The queen lying on the couch didn't have much expression on her face.

Her face was pale, her eyes were red, and the soft pillow was wet with tears from the corners of her eyes. When she saw her coming, she hurriedly wiped away the tears, and beckoned her to come and sit down and talk.

"Auntie, don't worry, everything will be fine." Song Jinyue took her aunt's hand and comforted her.

The queen sighed, unable to bear to disappoint her, and then said "hmm".

"Later, your cousin is coming, and you should persuade your cousin for your aunt. He always listens to you the most."

"it is good."

Song Jinyue did not refuse, but only sincerely accepted the matter.

Before I could say a few more words, Gong'e from outside reported that His Royal Highness the Prince had arrived.

Mrs. Xie led her daughter and niece to greet them at the door in person.

Today the prince specially wore a silver-gray robe, with a slender figure, a pair of sword-shaped eyebrows like carvings, and his dark eyes were full of solemnity.

"Prince."

"..."

Several people saw the ceremony, and Prince He Yuan stepped forward to personally help his aunt Xie Shi, and exchanged a few polite words with Xie Shi.

Turning his head, he saw that orange-red figure, and was a little dazed, "Sister Yue?" Xu hadn't seen her for many years, and the prince called out uncertainly for a moment.
