Yu Wan naturally had to go to make her court uniform, but she could not go alone. No matter what, she had to bring two maidservants with her. Zi Su was a first-class maidservant, so she had to follow. As for the remaining one…

Although Tao’er and Li’er came first, they were still young. Fu Ling had been doted on by Madam recently, so Zi Su guessed that Young Madam would bring her along.

“What is Su Mu doing?” Yu Wan sat in front of the dressing table and looked at Zi Su in the bronze mirror.

Zi Su’s hand that was combing her hair paused as she replied, “After she fell into the water, you have allowed her to lie in bed and recuperate. She never left the Zhuyue Pavilion.”

Such obedience was something that Su Mu could fake. Even though there were one accident after another, Su Mu’s reputation in the manor was still not completely ruined. It was obvious how many people had liked her when she entered the manor. She was a capable person. However, Yu Wan had already regained the initiative and was patient enough.

What Yu Wan was really curious about was Su Mu’s motive for entering the manor. Did she want to snatch everything from her? Why did she do this? Back then, Yan Ruyu did it for fame and fortune, and also to find herself a good husband. Without a doubt, Yan Jiuchao had satisfied her fantasy of a husband in all aspects. Then what about Su Mu? Did she really like Yan Jiuchao as a person, or was it just a way to capture him?

Yu Wan instructed Zi Su, “Go to the Zhuyue Pavilion and get Su Mu to pack up and follow me into the palace.”

Zi Su was shocked. “Young Madam, Su Mu…”

Yu Wan looked at Zi Su quietly from the bronze mirror. Her calm gaze made Zi Su’s heart pound. Zi Su lowered her head. “Yes, I’ll pass the message now.”

Zi Su walked out of the upper room and called Ban Xia in to continue combing Yu Wan’s hair.

Fifteen minutes later, Yu Wan brought Zi Su and Su Mu into the carriage that entered the palace.

The servants in the manor started discussing again.

“Su Mu is really lucky. Last time, she followed Young Madam into the palace. This time, she went again.”

“She caused so much trouble. Young Madam is really magnanimous…”

“I heard that the Empress took a fancy to her last time she entered the palace. The Empress even rewarded her with something.”

“In that case, Young Madam is trying to please the Empress?”

Pleasing the Empress had become the reason why Yu Wan brought Su Mu along. Yu Wan knew nothing about this, but even if she knew, she probably wouldn’t suggest it. After all, compared to her true motive, this sounded much better.

The carriage stopped at the palace gate.

Yu Wan alighted from the carriage with the two maidservants. Zi Su knew that Yu Wan did not like Su Mu. Along the way, she kept a close eye on Su Mu’s movements, afraid that she would be dissatisfied with Yu Wan and would do anything irreversible.

“Young Madam, this way please.” Emissary Cui led Yu Wan and the others to the embroidered room in Zhaoyang Palace.

The embroiderer had already arrived and was measuring the Eldest Princess Consort.

“Don’t break the safety talisman,” the Empress said to the Eldest Princess Consort.

The Eldest Princess Consort quickly took off the safety talisman around her neck and only put it on after the embroiderer finished measuring it.

The Empress had lost her favor, and the Eldest Prince had done nothing. Even the Eldest Princess Consort had not been as glorious as other imperial ladies in the past few years. No matter what, she was his legitimate wife. Since the Empress had left the Fengshai Palace, she would definitely not treat her badly.

Yu Wan bowed to the Empress and the Eldest Princess Consort.

The Empress gestured for Yu Wan to stand up.

Yu Wan noticed that the Empress’s expression was even more excited and happy than usual. She then looked at the Eldest Princess Consort, who was holding her stomach with one hand and looking shy.

“Cousin-in-law is…” Yu Wan looked at the Empress in surprise.

The Empress was overjoyed. “She just got pregnant. It’s still young. I only let His Majesty know and haven’t announced this good news to the public.”

Yu Wan held the Eldest Princess Consort’s hand and said sincerely, “Congratulations, Cousin-in-law.”

Being able to get pregnant was something worth congratulating. Whether it was the wives of the commoners or the daughters-in-law of the royal family, not to mention that the princes had only gotten the little princess, and no one had given birth to a prince or a little prince. If this child was a boy, the Emperor would definitely be overjoyed. No wonder the Empress could not hide the smile in her eyes.

Initially, she had planned to get a few concubines with status for the Eldest Prince, but now, there was no sign of those young ladies. It seemed that she had put aside the matter of finding a second wife for her son so that the Eldest Princess Consort could recuperate in peace.

The Eldest Princess Consort did not say much. Most of the time, she only sat there quietly. Everyone said that the Empress had lost her favor and that the Emperor had found a Eldest Princess Consort who was not of a high status. However, in Yu Wan’s opinion, it was not necessarily a misfortune to be able to marry such a gentle girl. It was not that the Emperor did not dote on his son, but he understood that the Eldest Prince’s head could not bear such a big hat. If he found the ambitious Yue family for him, he could only die in the end in the process of snatching the throne. It was better to live peacefully like now.
