Chapter 602: Wisdom

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

A scholarly family like the Yu Residence, which relied on hard work to achieve the status of an official, and the Zhenguo Marquis Residence, which relied on military contributions to earn the status of a lord, looked down on the imperial family.

It was a different story for the imperial family that gained power.

In the past, the Duke Rong’s Residence had been the imperial family that had seized the title.

When the current emperor ascended the throne, he had the intention to pardon some relatives who had committed minor crimes, so there was the matter of Duke Rong ordering the reinstatement of his title.

In the early years, Old Madam Yu had some dealings with the Duke Rong’s

Residence.

Later on, when Old Madam Yu lived as a widow, she no longer went out much, and her relationship with the Duke Rong’s Residence completely faded.

This time, even Old Madam Yu was surprised that the Duke Rong’s Residence had sent a flower festival invitation to the Yu Residence.

However, although she was surprised, she still had to give them face.

Old Madam Yu frowned. “I heard that the case of cheating in the examination was handed over to Duke Rong for review.”

Madam Yao nodded. “It was Third Prince’s suggestion. He said that this case involves Ning Yuanbo, who is a distant relative. This case shouldn’t be handed over to an external minister to be tried. It should be handled by the imperial family.”

The imperial family was in a mess. Most of them were playboys who ate, drank, whored, and gambled. There were not many people who could be relied on. Duke Rong was the most trusted person by the emperor.

If the imperial family wanted to protect their noble title and enjoy wealth, they had to take sides in advance.

Only with these contributions could they recover their ancestral virtue and enjoy all the glory.

When Old Madam Yu thought about this, she recalled that the Third Prince had entered the rice shop under Yao Yao’s name earlier. Her eyelids twitched violently, and she had a bad feeling.

As expected, Ning Yuanbo’s case involved a conflict tor the position ot heir. Yu Youyao said, “Due to King Li of Zhou’s case, in the past two years, the emperor has indeed been interested in appointing titles to disciples of the imperial family. This year, during the autumn spring hunt, many disciples of the imperial family received praise from the emperor. They were even rewarded if they were good at riding and archery.”

In the case of King Li of Zhou, Yin Huaixi had appeared out of nowhere, and the emperor had also taken the Yin family’s bloodline seriously.

These words seemed to be without rhyme or reason, but Old Madam Yu and Madam Yao both understood. The imperial family already had an influence in the competition for the position of heir. No matter what, they shouldn’t treat this flower festival as a simple flower festival.

Old Madam Yu shook her head. “I haven’t been out for many years. It’s time for me to exercise.”

Madam Yao calmed down. “In the past two years, the capital hasn’t been peaceful either. Every time I go out and walk around, I’m worried that I’ll make a mistake and cause trouble. This time, as soon as I received the invitation from the imperial family, I couldn’t do anything. Fortunately, I have you at home, Matriarch. Otherwise, I really wouldn’t know what to do.”

Old Madam Yu sighed slightly. “Don’t be too nervous. The old princess consort is a straightforward person and has accumulated a lot of good reputation in the capital. Otherwise, do you think that there are thousands of idle imperial clans in the capital? Why would such a great thing like title renewal reach the Duke Rong’s Residence before it reached anyone else’s family?”

The reason why Duke Rong’s Residence could be reinstated was because of the old princess consort.

Madam Yao nodded. “I often hear that the old princess consort is a straightforward person.” At this point, she glanced at Yu Youyao and changed the topic. “At the mention of the old princess consort of the Duke Rong’s

Residence, I remember that our Yao Yao still has some affinity with her…”

There were only three days left until the Flower Festival. Duke Rong’s Residence had already prepared for it, but when it actually happened, they were still a little flustered.

After breakfast, the Princess Consort of Duke Rong’s Residence’s Residence arranged for the servants to explain everything.

By the time she was done, it was already noon.

The Princess Consort of Duke Rong’s Residence had her hair combed into a high bun, and her hair was combed over her scalp. After being busy for most of the day, she also felt her scalp tighten. As soon as she returned to the house, she asked Nanny Wan, who was beside her, to help remove her jewelry.

“Where’s Brother Zhang?” The Princess Consort of Duke Rong’s Residence Prefecture relaxed. She remembered that she hadn’t seen her son all morning.

Nanny Wan said, “He said that he had an appointment with the Third Prince and left early in the morning.”

When the Princess Consort of Duke Rong’s Residence heard this, she frowned.

“Two days ago. the royal Drince sent a memorial to the Imperial Court to be conferred the title of heir. Now is the critical moment. How many times have I told him to stay in the residence obediently for the time being? When the imperial edict from the Imperial Court is issued and his status as heir is officially confirmed, the family will be stable.”

Nanny Wan comforted her, “It’s not easy to reject Third Prince’s invitation.”

The Princess Consort of Duke Rong’s Residence sighed slightly. “The memorial to confer the title of heir has been submitted to the Imperial Court two years ago. It’s just that the imperial decree has not been issued for a long time. The royal prince and I are both worried that this title will end on us.”

Nanny Wan hurriedly said, “Princess Consort, don’t worry too much. This time, with Consort Xu’s help, Eldest Young Master’s request for the title of heir will definitely be appropriate.”

The Princess Consort of Duke Rong’s Residence shook her head. “How can it be as easy as you say? Imperial Consort Xu didn’t help for nothing. If I’m not careful, I won’t be able to hit the fox and I’ll even get into trouble. If it weren’t for Brother Zhang, I wouldn’t be willing to get involved in this mess.”

Nanny Wan understood when she heard this. “Are you worried about the Yu Residence?”

At the mention of this, the Princess Consort of Duke Rong’s Residence’s expression darkened. “I don’t want to do such a wicked thing, but the Old

Consort has taken a fancy to Eldest Miss Yu. She’s just waiting for the Flower Festival to invite her into the residence to take a look.”

Nanny Wan lowered her head, not daring to speak.

The Princess Consort of Duke Rong’s Residence sighed softly. “In the past two years, I’ve also seen Eldest Miss Yu a few times. After all, she’s someone who has received the Empress Dowager’s praise. Her upbringing is indeed extraordinary. Old Madam Yu has been a widow for many years and has always been famous in the capital. Eldest Miss Yu has a good reputation and keeps a low profile. She’s not like Lu Mingyao from Ning Yuanbo’s family, who shows off just because she’s talented.”

Nanny Wan thought to herself, “Other than being a golden phoenix, who else in the capital doesn’t like Eldest Miss Yu?”

The Princess Consort of Duke Rong’s Residence continued, “The old Princess Consort and Yu Youyao’s biological mother, Madam Xie, were a little fated. One year, at a banquet in the palace, a young lady couldn’t take the heat and fainted on the spot. At that time, Eldest Madam Xie was close by and rushed over first to feed that young lady the secret medicine. That was why she was fine.’

Nanny Wan was wondering what this had to do with the old princess consort.

He heard the Princess Consort of Duke Rong’s Residence say, “At that time, the old Princess Consort also suffered from heatstroke. In order to prevent herself from losing her composure on the spot, she looked for Eldest Madam Xie.

Eldest Madam Xie was also a straightforward and meticulous person, so she asked about the old Princess Consort’s health. After confirming that she had suffered from heatstroke, she generously gave her the medicine. The old Princess Consort liked Eldest Madam Xie very much and always praised her for being an open-minded person. Some of the businesses under the Regional King’s Residence also went through the Xie Residence. Back then, when Eldest Madam Xie passed away early, the old Princess Consort personally went to the

Yu Residence to pay her respects.”

Being part of the imperial family sounded good, but without a noble title or a proper title in the family, they could only have their ancestral businesses. However, the Great Zhou Dynasty had lasted many generations. No matter how big their ancestral businesses were, they had almost all lost..
