At the gate of the palace, Daohua looked at Kang Naixin apologetically: "I have caused trouble for you. Next time you see me in front of the Queen Mother, please don't say hello to me again."

Being embarrassed by the Empress Dowager in public, Kang Naixin was not as shy as she imagined. She shook her head, blinked and smiled, "Don't blame yourself, maybe I got a blessing in disguise this time."

Wu Dingbai is ignorant. This time she expresses her feelings in public to see how he can still pretend to be stupid.

Daohua understood what she meant and smiled: "Then I wish you all your wishes come true."

On the second day of the birthday banquet, the Queen Mother announced that she was ill again.

Looking at Prince Ping who was packing up to go to Four Seasons Villa for a short stay, Daohua looked at Xiao Yeyang in confusion: "Usually when the Queen Mother is sick, my father will immediately go to the palace to visit. What happened this time?"

Xiao Yeyang's expression was a little complicated.

He did not expect that after the palace banquet yesterday, his father would return to Cining Palace to argue with the Queen Mother for him.

"Why else? My previous understanding has been overturned. My father didn't expect that the Queen Mother didn't care about his feelings at all. She probably doesn't want to please her anymore."

Daohua: "I think this is very good. Instead of trying to please the Queen Mother, it is better to go to the village and spend more time with the master."

In the next few days, Xiao Yeyang became busy again.

The emperor began to disintegrate the power of the Jiang family. Because he could not guarantee that there would be no Jiang family members in the Jinling Guard, he sent Xiao Yeyang to deal with some people and matters secretly.

On July 22nd, the Wu family proposed marriage to the Kang family.

Because of the Queen Mother's incident, everyone in the capital knew that Kang Naixin liked Wu Dingbai.

Princess Huijia was well-liked in the capital, and the Kang family never got involved in messy affairs. She was a good matchmaker. After asking his son, Wu Jingyi saw that he was also interested in Kang Naixin, so he set a date and brought a matchmaker to take the initiative.

I came to propose marriage.

When Daohua heard about this, she immediately picked two pots of lilies and took the flowers to the princess's mansion to congratulate Kang Naixin.

Daohua did not return to the palace until the evening. As soon as she came back, she heard from Guyu that Prince Ping was back.

Daohua's face was full of surprise: "Father, it has only been two days since I went to Zhuangzi. Why did you come back so soon? Did you get scolded by the master?"

Guyu shook his head: "My slave, it doesn't look right. If I was really scolded by the old man, the prince would definitely be unhappy, but from what I saw, the prince seems to be worried."

Upon hearing this, Daohua was confused. Her father-in-law was not someone who could pretend to be pretentious. After thinking about it, she ordered the kitchen to cook a few dishes that Prince Ping liked to eat, and then personally delivered them to Pingxi Hall.

After Princess Ma's death, Concubine Jiang or Concubine Ji would usually accompany Prince Ping to dinner with their children. The place would be very lively at meal time, but today Pingxi Hall was quiet.

When Wynn saw Daohua coming over with a food box, he hesitated on his face, as if he didn't know whether he should let people in or not.

You know, the two concubines have just come here, and the master has not seen any of them.

Daohua saw it and asked, "What's wrong with my father?"

Huai En was also puzzled. The master had obviously been very happy living in Zhuangzi these two days. Unexpectedly, shortly after Prince Yong arrived this morning, the master returned home with a sullen face and without a word.

Prince Ping heard Daohua's voice in the room, thought for a moment, and said, "Is it Yan Yatou? Come in."

Daohua carried the food box into the house and saw Prince Ping frowning. While placing the food, he asked with a smile: "Father, have you offended my master?"

Prince Ping glanced at Daohua. At this moment, he finally understood why the emperor was so different towards this girl. He said angrily: "Do I dare to offend him? That old man... that old man is better than me."

Even more tempered."

Daohua smiled: "So my master made you angry?"

Prince Ping looked at the rice flowers and did not hum.

Daohua placed the bowls and chopsticks and persuaded: "Father, my master is old. As an old man, he has a bit of a temper. You have a lot, so don't get serious about it with an old man."<

/p>

Prince Ping did not speak. Thinking of overhearing the conversation between Prince Yong and Gu Jian this morning at Four Seasons Villa, his expression became complicated. He hesitated for a while and looked at Daohua: "Well... I heard

Mr. Gu also has a sister?"

Daohua looked at Prince Ping in surprise, a little surprised why he suddenly mentioned Grandma Gu. Although she was confused in her heart, she nodded with a smile on her face and said: "My master has an older sister. When we were in Taohua Village, everyone

I like to call her Granny Gu."

"Father, why do you think of asking this?"

Prince Ping paused for a moment, quickly picked up the chopsticks to pick up the food, and said vaguely: "I just heard someone mention it, so I wanted to ask more questions, so as not to accidentally let something slip and make your master unhappy."<

/p>

Daohua saw Prince Ping's discomfort and knew that he must have known something. However, he wanted to know about his mother-in-law, and she was eager to tell him more about her mother-in-law.

"Father, my mother-in-law is such a kind person. She is very kind to me. She especially likes Xiao Yeyang. She was the one who facilitated my marriage to Xiao Yeyang."

Hearing this, Prince Ping suddenly understood, and finally understood why the emperor's brother insisted on granting marriage to Yeyang and Yan Yatou, regardless of the Queen Mother's objections and the fact that the Yan family's identity did not match the palace.

It turns out that the matter between Yeyang and Yan Yatou was... she nodded.

"Grandma Gu... must be very kind, right?"

Daohua nodded quickly: "Of course, even if my mother-in-law's face was burned by the fire, she is not scary at all. She has a pair of particularly gentle eyes."

Hearing that Grandma Gu's face was burned, Prince Ping asked eagerly: "How did she get burned?"

Daohua shook her head: "It seems like someone was trapped in a fire. If Master hadn't tried his best to save her, my mother-in-law would have been buried in the flames."

Prince Ping murmured: "The fire..."

His father's beloved concubine Wan Guifei died in a fire. He knew about it, but he was too young at the time and had no memory of it at all.

Although the Queen Mother was not as kind to him as the Jiang family, and he had to be diligent to please her in order to get her smile, he always thought that she was his and his brother's biological mother.

I didn’t expect it to be the case!!!

All the doubts accumulated in my heart were answered at this moment.

Why does the Queen Mother sometimes look at him with disgust, as if he is a lowly person;

Why was it that when he had a dispute with Prince Jiang when he was a child, no matter what the reason was, the Queen Mother would ask him to apologize to Prince Jiang, because he was obviously a prince;

Why does the Queen Mother care less about his affairs than the Jiang family's affairs...

She is not a mother at all, how can she really care about him?!

After that, Daohuaxi talked about many things about Granny Gu and Gu Jian, from when they lived in a temple and made a living by helping people treat illnesses, to when they fell into the water and were rescued by her and Xiao Yeyang, and then settled down in Taohua Village.

"My mother-in-law suffered from the disease when she was young. Even though Master tried his best to treat her, he still couldn't save her."

Daohua glanced at Prince Ping, who was in a certain mood, and said tentatively: "When my mother-in-law died, the most worrying thing was her two sons. She hoped that her Xiaowu and Xiaojiu would have a safe and smooth life.

."

Upon hearing this, Prince Ping stood up and strode out of the house.

When Wynn saw it, he quickly looked at Daohua. Seeing Daohua looking at him with an innocent face, he immediately ran to chase the person.

Daohua stood at the door, looking at the back of Prince Ping as he quickly left, and put his hand on his chin, thoughtfully.

When Xiao Yeyang came back in the evening, Daohua took him and told him what Prince Ping asked Granny Gu: "I think my father seems to know something."

Xiao Yeyang was surprised: "How did he know?"

Daohua shrugged and said uncertainly: "Isn't that what Master said?"
