“Come in then.” Yang Wanyu invited them into her room.
After everyone sat down, Yang Wanyu looked at Yang Wanning and said, “You’re the eldest. Tell us what we should do.”
“Since you’ve gathered everyone together, you must have an idea. I want to hear what you think.”
Yang Wanning immediately kicked the ball back to her. She did not even want to acknowledge Mrs. and Madam Cui as her family, so she would not interfere in their matters.
Yang Wanyu had no choice, so she stood up and said, “1 think we should go to the Emperor together. Grandmother and Mother must have been dragged down by the Cui family.”
After she finished speaking, no one agreed with her.
Yang Wanyu looked at Yang Wanning and asked, “What do you think, Big Sister?”
“Do you think it will work? Instead of asking the Emperor to change his sentence, 1 think it would be better to ask King An to release Father first. Father knows more and has more connections.”
“Yes, yes, 1 think what she said makes sense.
“We have no position to speak of and no one to lead us. We can’t even enter the palace.” Mrs. Ning echoed.
The elderly Mrs. Zhang, sitting at the side, had a blank expression on her face. She had no intention of participating at all.
The younger Mrs. Zhao gloated and said, “1 also agree with her.”
She looked at Yang Wanyu and added, “1 heard that you and your brother not only went to look for Prince Hui yesterday but also went to the palace gate to look for the Eighth Princess and Empress.
“I heard you didn’t even meet a single person after all that. This should tell you that this matter is very troublesome.
“If even the Empress and the First Prince can’t change their fates, we probably won’t be able to achieve anything, even if we kneel to our deaths at the palace gates.”
“You…” Yang Wanyu glared at Mrs. Zhao.
Mrs. Zhao smiled. “I’m telling the truth. From the looks of it, it’s useless to do anything now. It’s better to think of a way to gather some silver to buy two coffins.”
“If you’re not willing to help, then get out. You’re not the only one here to help.” Yang Chengsen stood up and chastised her.
“I wish you good luck.” Mrs. Zhao turned around and walked out.
Mrs. Zhang immediately followed her.
As for Mrs. Ning, she hesitated momentarily before sitting back down.
She looked at the siblings and said, “Mirs. Zhao’s words may sound unpleasant, but we’ve already begged everyone we can. Since there’s no change, we must prepare for the worst.”
“You, you guys…” Yang Wanyu saw no one supporting saving her mother and immediately ran out angrily.
Yang Chengsen huffed and followed.
Mrs. Ning stood up and said, “Sorry for disturbing you.”
“You’re too polite.” Yang Wanning stood up and sent her out.
She went inside to find Mrs. Sun and asked, “Mrs. Sun, do you know them?
Does Mrs. Zhao have a grudge with Mrs. Cui?”
“When the Gu family was in trouble, Mrs. Zhao had a miscarriage.
“The rumors were that cats raised by Mrs. Cui caused it. As for whether it was on purpose, it was not confirmed.
“But from then on, Mrs. Zhao hated her.
“Mrs. Zhao is also a strong person. She relied on your father’s favor to resist the suppression of Mrs. and Madam Cui.
“As for Mrs. Zhang, she’s also a poor person. She was another woman the Old Madam arranged for Master after your mother got pregnant.
“However, after so many years, she had never born a child. Madam could not bear it anymore and finally promoted her to a concubine.
“As for Mrs. Ning, she moved into the residence eight years ago. It was said she had connections with the Empress’s family, so she held some status here.
“All these years, she stayed out of the fight to protect herself.
“However, judging from what she said just now, she was probably trying to take advantage of the situation to be the main wife..”
