Daughter Reborn as the Head of the Family

Chapter 236 Really seriously ill

Author: Yu Shao

After waiting for several more days, Song Jinyue didn't even wait for Qin Sheng to come.

Instead, he was waiting for news from the palace.

Previously, it was thought that Aunt Muyun wanted to enter the palace using the excuse of the Queen Mother being ill.

Unexpectedly, news spread in the capital that the Queen Mother was seriously ill.

Song Jinyue made a special trip to the Zhang Mansion for this purpose, and learned from her aunt that the queen was really seriously ill and was now lying on the bed in a state of confusion, like a withered tree.

This incident quite surprised Song Jinyue. The Queen Mother had always been in good health, but she had never heard of having a headache or fever before. Why did she suddenly become seriously ill at this moment?

The news in the palace is limited and difficult to find out.

She didn't want to cause trouble to her aunt, so she never took the matter to heart.

On this day, Aunt Muyun came to beg for help again.

As soon as she entered the door, Aunt Muyun knelt down at Song Jinyue's feet, choked with sobs and begged: "Second Miss, please show mercy and let me enter the palace. I am afraid that I will not have the chance to meet the Queen Mother again."

one side……"

Tears wet her clothes, but she still raised her head, her eyes red, full of pleading.

Song Jinyue was a little annoyed, frowned slightly, took a step back, and ordered someone to help Aunt Muyun up.

It's not that she has no sympathy, it's just that she doesn't have the slightest fondness for Aunt Muyun.

She was just a chess piece sent to the Duke's Mansion by the Queen Mother.

Everyone knows what the name is for.

And why does she need to help Aunt Muyun? What benefits can she get from helping her?

Seeing that Song Jinyue remained silent for a long time, Aunt Muyun cried a few more times.

Song Jinyue tugged at the corner of her lips somewhat helplessly.

"Second Young Lady, please, please grant me mercy to this humble maid."

This time, she did not call herself aunt, but used the title of maidservant.

Today she came with full sincerity.

If the Queen Mother had not been seriously ill, she would not have come like this today.

Song Jinyue fiddled with her fingertips and said casually: "Auntie, I never like doing money-losing business. I will take you into the palace, what can you give me?"

Aunt Muyun was startled, and seeing that there seemed to be a hint of relief in her words, she hurriedly said: "Second Miss, I will give you all the valuable items in my humble maid's house."

After saying that, she took off the jade bracelet on her wrist and handed it to the second lady.

Song Jinyue chuckled lightly, stopped the bracelet handed over by Aunt Muyun, and said lazily: "Aunt Muyun thinks that I love money very much?"

"Second Miss, no, it's not..."

"Auntie, please accept it. I am not short of gold, silver and silk. However, I have two things I want to ask my aunt."

Aunt Mu Yun did not answer, but looked at Song Jinyue with a wary look.

She understood that what the second young lady said today was probably not a good thing.

Compared with the Queen Mother, Aunt Muyun was unable to make a decision for a while.

At this moment, Song Jinyue suddenly spoke, "Where is Mrs. Shen? What mission did you bring when you came to the Duke's Mansion?"

After saying this, Song Jinyue picked up the tea cup on the table, took a sip, and then slowly put the tea cup down.

She is not in a hurry, she has plenty of time in the world.

I just don’t know, does Aunt Muyun still have time?

The candlelight in the charcoal pot inside the house made a faint strange noise, and you could hear a needle drop in the quiet room.

Aunt Muyun lowered her head, still struggling with what to choose.

Song Jinyue tapped the table again and again out of boredom.

Aunt Muyun's heart was beating faster and faster.

After waiting for a full two-quarters of an hour, Aunt Muyun still had not decided yet.

"Then Aunt Muyun, please go back first, and come back if you have made up your mind."

At this time, Aunt Muyun became a little panicked. She suddenly raised her head and looked at the second young lady, hesitating and saying: "Second young lady, this lowly maid who came to the mansion is just a pair of eyes installed by the Queen Mother in the Duke's mansion."

Song Jinyue snorted lightly, "If Auntie is so insincere, then go back and rest, don't waste my time."

Qiu Yun stepped forward and waved to invite Aunt Muyun out.

"Second Miss, I am really just a pair of eyes installed by the Queen Mother in the Duke's Mansion. If this is true, I wish the sky would thunder!"

Aunt Muyun raised her hands and swore a poisonous oath.

Song Jinyue raised her brows and asked, "Where is Mrs. Shen?"

"Yes, yes..." Aunt Muyun hesitated, her heart skipped a beat, thinking that she had to go see the Queen Mother, and then she continued: "In the Lin Mansion!"

"Auntie is talking about the residence of Taifu Lin's family?"

Seeing Aunt Mu Yun nod her head, Song Jinyue's eyes darkened.

He lowered his eyes and suppressed the turbulent waves under his eyes.

The Lin family is actually the fifth prince's party? That is the mentor of the prince's cousin.

Everyone outside knows that Taifu Lin loyally assists His Highness the Crown Prince and is deeply trusted by the Crown Prince.

But now, the Shen family is hiding in the Lin Mansion, which shows that the Lin Mansion and the fifth prince are in the same party.

How could she not be shocked?

Previously, I only thought that Master Zhao of the Ministry of Civil Affairs was part of the Fifth Prince's party, but I didn't know that Taifu Lin was actually a person hiding in secret.

But why?

Why did the Lin family betray the prince's cousin?

Over the years, the Lin family's rewards are the only ones in the capital. Looking at it now, the Lin family may not be satisfied yet.

Song Jinyue waved her hand, signaling Qiu Yun to send Aunt Muyun out.

"Second Miss, then..."

She was worried that Song Jinyue would regret it.

"I will take my aunt into the palace tomorrow."

Seeing the second young lady's promise, Aunt Muyun breathed a sigh of relief, thanked her, and then left.

Before she could sort out the matter, the imperial decree summoning her to the palace was sent.

However, this time, her aunt only summoned her into the palace.

Song Jinyue entered the palace with her maidservant, who was delivering the order.

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the palace, and Xiang Xiu, the director of Zhaohua Palace, was waiting here.

"Sister Xiangxiu."

"Princess Ronghua, my queen is waiting for you."

After receiving a courtesy, Xiangxiu then went to Zhaohua Hall to welcome him.

There were more guards on duty in the palace than before.

The palace maids who were busy going in and out all kept their heads down and walked quickly through the palace passage. When they met their master, they would stop and kneel in place. When the master had gone away, they hurriedly got up and left the palace passage quickly.

Everyone looked in a hurry, as if they were avoiding some fierce beast.

When there was no one around, Song Jinyue asked softly: "Sister Xiangxiu, I heard that the Queen Mother is seriously ill?"

Xiangxiu paused, looked around with a wary look, then nodded slightly and warned: "Princess, the palace is under martial law these days. When we get to Zhaohua Palace, the empress will discuss this matter with you in detail."

She understood Xiangxiu's concerns and naturally agreed.

Then he followed Xiangxiu to Zhaohua Palace.

But doubts gradually rose in her heart, and she secretly felt that something big was about to happen.

In Zhaohua Hall, the serving ladies had already been escorted out one by one.

Qiu Yun and Xiang Xiu were guarding outside the palace gate.

The queen took her niece and sat down together to talk.

Song Jinyue looked at her aunt's still swollen belly and couldn't help but wonder, whether the child in her aunt's belly would be a prince or a princess?

No prince or princess has been born in the palace for many years.

"Yue'er, my aunt summoned you to the palace today. It was His Majesty's wish."

The Queen's voice was a little dull.

Song Jinyue suddenly looked startled.

It was the emperor who asked his aunt to summon her to the palace?
