Zhe Furong: After widowhood and rebirth, she was pampered by treacherous ministers

When the emperor mentioned Jiang Yue, Gu Mo's calm expression finally sparked a slight smile.

"In a short while, she will no longer be Xiao's wife."

The emperor also showed a bit of a smile when he heard the words, and was extremely satisfied that Gu Mo took the advice he had given him to heart.

Because of the emperor's smile, the atmosphere in the hall immediately relaxed.

"That Xiao Liran is just an ant, not worth mentioning at all. I know your temperament, if you decide to keep that Jiang Yue by your side, I will not object, but you have to deal with the world's opinions by yourself."

Speaking of this, the emperor paused for a moment, then his expression changed, and his tone became more and more severe.

"Remember, you must not shame the royal family, otherwise, I won't stand by and watch."

He can tolerate Gu Mo falling in love with a second-married woman, but he will never allow anyone to stain the royal family. The heavenly family is majestic and absolutely cannot be violated.

It's cruel, but it's the truth.

After the emperor finished speaking, Gu Mo's expression didn't change much, the corner of his mouth still had a smile, and he was confident.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, no one can shame the royal family."

He doesn't care about Jiang Yue's past, if someone doesn't have eyes and wants to say something, then he doesn't mind sending him to hell himself.

"Okay, it's getting late, you go back." Seeing Gu Mo's promise, the emperor didn't want to keep him anymore.

"Yes"

Leaving the gloomy palace that killed people invisible, Gu Mo hadn't stepped into the gate of the Duke's mansion when he heard the laughter coming from inside.

This was a voice that had not been heard in the Duke's Mansion for a long time, and it made him a little familiar and a little strange.

Gu Mo hesitated for a while, but walked into the house with his feet lifted.

In the yard, Jiang Yue and Ye Zi were hanging lanterns on the osmanthus tree with a few maids.She bought this specially on the way back from the southwest side of the city.

As soon as Gu Mo entered the door, he found the source of that laughter - Jiang Yue.

Today, she is wearing a moon lotus-colored Shu embroidered dress, standing on the wooden ladder with her slender body, bathed in the clear and soft moonlight, like a fairy in sparkling light.

Those maids who were always taciturn in the past are now handing various lanterns to the girl with smiles on their faces. The whole atmosphere is very happy.

"What are you doing?"

As soon as Gu Mo's abrupt words came out, the laughter and laughter stopped immediately.

"See Your Royal Highness."

The maid who was originally smiling quickly put down the things in her hands and saluted him, and then returned to her former solemnity, only Jiang Yue still had a smile on her face.

"You're back." Jiang Yue came down the ladder with a lantern, and walked straight to him.

"Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, do you think the lanterns I bought look good?"

The fiery red candlelight shone on the faces of the two, and there was a slight burning sensation.

"Mid-Autumn Festival?" Gu Mo was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that it had indeed been two months since he left the capital.It's just that he never takes such small things to heart.

Jiang Yue didn't notice Gu Mo's surprise at all, and took his hand very naturally.

"I also specially asked the master of Wangyuelou to prepare a table of delicious dishes for us. This is the first Mid-Autumn Festival that the two of us have spent together, so we must celebrate it well."

Jiang Yue babbled non-stop, but Gu Mo followed her into the house obediently.

"Let me tell you, the chefs in our building have developed a lot of new dishes recently, and they are all delicious."

As the son of the prince, Gu Mo hasn't eaten any delicacies from mountains and seas?Therefore, he didn't expect much from Jiang Yue's delicacies.

But when he really saw it, Gu Mo was still tempted.

"This is Sixi Balls, Golden Knuckle Pig's Trotters, Flowery Fish Paste Balls, Assorted Shrimp."

Jiang Yue fed Gu Mo and introduced them one by one, but they were all common dishes, which were nothing new, but each one meant well-being, reunion and happiness.

And this is something that Gu Mo never had.

"By the way, there is also the red bean lotus paste mooncake."

Gu Mo looked in the direction pointed by Jiang Yue, and what caught his eye was a plate of moon cakes with strange shapes, which seemed a bit out of place among the exquisite dishes.

He looked suspiciously at Jiang Yue, who was also a little embarrassed.

"That... looks a bit ugly, but the taste is still good. I have tasted it."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Mo immediately understood that this ugly thing must have been made by Jiang Yue. Thinking of the dishes she cooked last time, he still had lingering fears.

But the movement of his hands uncontrollably picked up a piece and put it into his mouth.

The dense sweetness of red beans poured into the mouth in an instant, sweetening the whole heart at once.

"It's really good." With a raised eyebrow, the half-bitten mooncake was sent into Jiang Yue's mouth.

With the ambiguous atmosphere, the people next to him immediately lowered their heads knowingly.

This Mid-Autumn Festival, Jiang Yue didn't finally escape Gu Mo's torture until the moon set in the west.The festive lanterns in the Duke's Mansion hadn't been burned out yet, and the usually cold house looked extraordinarily warm tonight.

Half a month later, with Song Yan's help, Jiang Yue built a charity hall in the city to house the children who had fled from the south.

In order to maintain the operation of Jishantang, Jiang Yue specially arranged a fundraising event in Wangyue Tower.For this kind of thing that can buy themselves a good reputation, those high-ranking officials are naturally willing to spend their money.

The Jishantang incident made people in the capital have a little more favorable impression of Jiang Yue.This can be regarded as unintentional insertion.

At the same time, Jiang Yue also learned some surprising news from these children who had been wandering around the city before.

Just when she left the capital to go to Zixia Mountain, people from the Xiao family clan had approached Xiao's mother above, saying that Xiao Liran was no longer successful, and the Xiao family's property should be handed over to people in the clan.

It is not a glorious thing for the clan to come to snatch the family property, so both parties have tacitly concealed the matter.

Another thing is that Zhao Yantang's mother's family came to the capital once recently because of business matters.It is said that they were also going to Xiao's mansion, but they were blocked by business matters and failed to go.

"Zhao family?" Jiang Yue pondered these two words carefully.

When I was at Xiao's house in my previous life, Zhao Yantang's mother often came to visit Xiao's mother.In name, it was said to be visiting relatives, but Jiang Yue now thinks of the other party looking at her with pity and sarcasm, and it is ridiculous.

I'm afraid that person already knew that his good daughter had made peace with Xiao Liran, but he was just playing with Jiang Yue as a fool.

Thinking of Zhao Yantang, a name that hadn't appeared in his life for a long time, since her mother took such good care of him, he should also tell her about his daughter's situation.

"Zhao Yantang, this is a good show to watch."
