Chapter 320: Chapter 320: Suffering Wife vs. Homewrecker (6) Chapter 320: Chapter 320: Suffering Wife vs. Homewrecker (6) After this incident, the sisters no longer felt like continuing their outing and boarded their carriage to return home.

Liang Linyu hurried back to Grand Princess Ronghua’s residence as soon as she was back at the mansion.

Fearing that her sister might speak carelessly and upset their grandmother, Gu Shengyin quickly followed suit.

“Yuer… is everything your sister said true?” Grand Princess Ronghua trembled with rage, Gu Shengyin.

Gu Shengyin felt a bit embarrassed but still bit her lip and nodded.

Grand Princess Ronghua slammed her fist on the table in fury, “What audacity the Prince of Zhenbei’s Mansion has, and what insolence from that scoundrel Qin Yuanzheng!”

That she would curse someone ‘scoundrel’ indicated just how infuriated the Grand Princess was.

She ordered her head maid, “Go, call the Madam over.” The ‘Madam’ she referred to was none other than the wife of Grand Tutor Liang, the mother of Liang Chenyu, Lady Meng.

Lady Meng arrived swiftly, and before she could even perform the proper courtesies, her mother-in-law grasped her hand and relayed what Liang Linyu had told her.

Chosen by the Eldest Princess as a daughter-in-law of the time, Lady Meng’s family background was naturally very distinguished.

The Legitimate Daughter of the Protectorate Duke Meng, now the biological sister of Protectorate Duke Meng Qikang.

Lady Meng’s reaction was almost identical to that of the Grand Princess, seething with anger upon hearing the news.

Deciding it unfit for Liang Linyu, the younger girl, to know what was to follow, after instructing her repeatedly to tell no one of the matter, Grand Princess Ronghua and Lady Meng began to strategize their next steps.

Gu Shengyin was left in the courtyard. According to the Grand Princess, this matter was related to her after all, and given her age, it was time she became acquainted with certain knowledge.

Lady Meng dispatched messengers that very day to gather information.

Three days later, both Grand Princess Ronghua and Lady Meng turned pale upon receiving the news.

“Raised together from childhood, childhood sweethearts? The servants at the Prince of Zhenbei’s Mansion treat her like the Crown Princess? The harmony of qin and se instruments? Very well, very well indeed!” Grand Princess Ronghua’s hands trembled.

“Someone, fetch my formal court attire for Noble Ladies!” Grand Princess Ronghua commanded sternly.

Grand Princess Ronghua, adorned in her full ceremonial garb, headed in grandeur toward the palace to pay her respects.

At the same time, Lady Meng was not idle either; she dressed sumptuously and personally visited the Prince of Zhenbei’s Mansion.

While Grand Princess Ronghua said she was going to the palace to pay respects, in reality, considering her seniority in the royal family, who in the palace could actually accept her courtesies?

His Majesty had not yet taken a wife, so she went straight to the Empress Dowager’s palace.

Even the Empress Dowager had to address her as ‘Aunt’ when she saw her.

As soon as Grand Princess Ronghua entered the palace, the Empress Dowager, upon hearing of her arrival, came out to receive her personally but was surprised to find the Grand Princess kneeling and sobbing as soon as they met.

The Empress Dowager, a bit confounded by this turn of events, hastily ordered attendants to help the Grand Princess to her feet and only after a while did she understand the full story.

“Could the Prince of Zhenbei’s Mansion truly be such an unruly household?” The Empress Dowager could scarcely believe it. Where would one find such a circumstance where, with the master’s wife yet to enter the household, there is already a ‘little mistress’ being taken care of?

“Aunt, rest assured, I will make decisions on your behalf,” the Empress Dowager reassured Grand Princess Ronghua before sending for His Majesty.

After all, this marriage had been decreed by His Majesty himself, and it would be improper to make any decisions without his consent.

When Qin Shao heard that the Empress Dowager had summoned him, the always filial prince immediately rushed over.

Upon understanding the circumstances, for some reason, the first thing that came to Qin Shao’s mind were those round, bright eyes he had seen in the Grand Tutor’s Mansion’s backyard garden that day.
