Chapter 450 Breaking News
Early in the morning, several imperial edicts were issued from the palace. Several soldiers rode their horses across Zhuque Street and quickly left the city. It was obvious that something was wrong. Many people began to ask around, but they didn't find out anything.

Liu Ye brought her maid and the food box back home and told Jiang Ning and others about this.

"Mother, wasn't the Xuanwu Cauldron just delivered to the palace yesterday? Why did it make such a big commotion in the palace so early this morning? It's so strange." Liu Ye asked in confusion while serving the dishes.

According to the rules of the capital, one could only ride into the streets when there was an emergency at the border or some serious matter, and one had to give orders for the soldiers to clear the way.

Jiang Ning leisurely took a bite of the pork, water chestnut and egg stew and fed it to his little grandson Yang Lejing.

The little guy opened his mouth wide and bit off half of the fried egg in one bite, making Jiang Ning laugh happily.

"There's nothing strange about it. I've already told you what happened yesterday. The fake Princess Wuya must be Zhao Yuejiao. She's the only one who has a grudge against our family and targeted Baiweilou. Now her identity has been revealed and the Wuya envoy has been controlled by the emperor. All your previous worries have been solved. We can't get involved in other major events, so there's no need to be curious!"

Jiang Ning spoke slowly, word by word, hoping that others would listen.

Liu Ye nodded obediently, "I understand, mother."

Jiang Ning smiled at her, very satisfied with his eldest daughter-in-law's understanding. He turned his head to look at his eldest grandson Yang Lexu who was like a little adult, and said lovingly: "Xu'er, do you understand everything that grandma told you last night?"

"Xu'er understands!" Yang Lexu put down his chopsticks and answered respectfully without smiling.

Seeing that look, several women couldn't help but smile.

Jiang Ning nodded, "Okay! Then go back and write an article for grandma today. Think carefully about it. Don't ask adults. Grandma wants to see how smart our Xu'er is."

"Don't worry, grandma. Xu'er will complete the task. Xu'er has eaten and will go to school first. Grandma, mother, aunt, brothers and sisters, please enjoy your meal." The little guy greeted everyone one by one before leaving in an orderly manner.

Xu Nuoyan praised: "Mother, Xu'er has learned the rules and etiquette very well!"

Jiang Ning smiled, "After all, he is the eldest grandson of the eldest son's family. He will take charge of the entire Yang family in the future, so naturally he has to be good at everything!"

Privately, she also felt that the child was too tired, but she had no right to interfere with Yang Datou and Liu Ye's parenting. They placed all their hopes on the child and did not understand her advanced ideas. She also did not want to be treated as an outsider, so she could only guide the child to broaden his or her thinking as much as possible, and take the child for a walk to relax when she had time.

Xu Nuoyan nodded repeatedly, "That's right! With Xu'er setting an example for his brothers and sisters, it will be easier to manage those naughty boys in the future."

"My second brother and his wife are joking! Don't praise him in front of him, or he will become too proud of himself!" Liu Ye was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.

Xu Nuoyan inquired again, "Sister-in-law, what kind of teacher did you find for Xu'er? I feel like this child is being taught really well!"

Liu Ye paused and said, "Xu'er's teacher was recommended by the prince. His name is Shi Mu. He is a very talented scholar and seems to have some skills. He is indifferent to fame and fortune and does not like court disputes. He took the imperial examination that year and never took it again.

Anyway, his family was well-off, he had no worries about food and clothing, he was devoted to reading, painting, poetry and couplets, and he also loved wine! Originally, he had no intention of taking Xu'er in, but he made an exception and took her in when he knew that Baiweilou belonged to our family.

In the past, many famous scholars in the capital would go to Mr. Shi to drink tea and wine and talk. The prince would also go there occasionally. Xu'er could often get guidance from other masters, so he naturally learned a lot! "

"So that's it!" Xu Nuoyan said everything.

Jiang Ning frowned slightly, "How come I didn't know about this?" Liu Ye hurriedly explained, "My mother was not in the capital during that time, and I wanted to write to you to tell you, but the prince came over and heard it. He said that Quzhou Prefecture was in chaos and my mother was busy with many things, so he asked me not to bother you with these trivial matters. I thought about it and felt that what the prince said made sense, so I didn't write to you specifically, because there were more things to do later.

I only talked about important things when I wrote to you, and forgot about this. If it weren’t for my second brother’s wife asking me about it today, I would have almost forgotten about it.”

Jiang Ning was a little speechless, but it was understandable. After all, the child had been developing in a good direction since changing husbands. As parents, they were happy to see it happen and naturally would not bring up the past.

"I understand! Since it was the prince who helped find this gentleman, have you thanked him properly?" Jiang Ning asked.

Liu Ye breathed a sigh of relief and nodded quickly, "Yes! Datou specially prepared a large table of good wine and food to entertain the prince and Mr. Shi, and also gave them the top-quality four treasures of the study and jade wine, and the little old man."

These things are okay.

As they were talking, the family had breakfast. Liu Ye started to take care of the household, while Xu Nuoyan took the children to the backyard to watch Ayana and the children playing.

Yuzhuo came over from under the eaves and said, "Second Young Master's Madam, Princess Yongyang and her husband are here. Madam wants you and Miss Xiaohua to go over."

Xu Nuoyan had no choice but to give Ayana a few words and rush over immediately.

In the front yard hall.

Princess Yongyang complained crazily, "My Lord, you don't know that the Wuya tribe is so bold that they sent a fake princess to the capital, but even the Xuanwu Cauldron is fake!"

"Puff!" Jiang Ning sprayed out all the tea in his mouth, and his eyes widened in disbelief, "Princess, you said the Xuanwu Ding is fake? The Xuanwu Ding that the Cheng family was willing to tear down the gate to welcome into the mansion is fake!"

"That's right! The Cheng family is so ridiculous! They've become a laughing stock in the whole capital just for a fake princess and a fake tripod!" Princess Yongyang's face was full of sarcasm, and she felt very relieved.

Xu Nuoshan coughed twice and reminded, "Princess, it's okay."

Princess Yongyang pouted and said coquettishly, "I won't! You don't know how much I have suffered since that fake princess came to the capital! First, she clamored to marry Prince Ding, which made Princess Ding so angry that she cried all day long and went to the palace to cry to her mother.

Prince Ding refused to marry her, but they actually set their sights on me. I have never been wronged like this since I was a child!"

It would have been better if she didn't say anything. The more she talked, the angrier she got, and she was so angry that tears came out.

Xu Nuoshan hurriedly tried to persuade her, "Princess, don't be angry. Those things are in the past. No matter what happened, you didn't go to marry. Don't be afraid."

Xu Nuoyan saw this scene when he entered the room. He was confused and bowed quickly, "Greetings to the princess, mother, and elder brother."

“Get up, get up! We are all family. We are not outside. No need to be so polite.” Princess Yongyang wiped away her tears and motioned Xu Nuoyan to sit down.

Then he asked Yang Xiaohua to sit down with him. Like a child, her emotions came and went quickly.

He suddenly became excited again and told them what happened in the palace this morning.

The two had similar reactions to Jiang Ning, and they were all dumbfounded.
