Chapter 869 Punishment
As for Nan Wanyan, rumors were spreading in the palace, but she had no time to deal with those things.

After Mo Yan left last night, she spent a lot of effort to completely clean out the toxins in her body. When she woke up early in the morning, Ye Qianfeng didn't come back at all. She didn't care and had Ye Qianfeng's medicine brewed and extracted. When he came out, he sent someone to deliver it to Ye Qianfeng.

His internal injuries needed to be adjusted slowly, and she had to help him heal.

On the way to the study, she heard all kinds of rumors.

There are indeed rumors, each one more outrageous than the last.

Although she was angry at what Mo Yan said in front of her palace last night, she didn't really blame him.

On the contrary, the more scandals like this, the better it would be for her to deal with her aunt and have a quiet and peaceful life.

At that time, Nan Wanyan was sitting in front of the case, holding her chin with one hand, looking a little tired, and handling the palace affairs in her hands.

Frankly speaking, reviewing memorials is very boring. She can do this kind of work part-time at most. If she does it every day every year, she will be exhausted sooner or later. Fortunately, the second and third brothers dote on her and share part of the memorial work with her. Otherwise, she would Maybe they went on strike a long time ago.

She lowered her eyes and looked serious. As soon as she had dealt with the tip of the iceberg, Feng Yang knocked on the study door, "Princess Minghuang, Mrs. Cheng Yu wants to see you."

Mrs. Chengyu?
Nan Wanyan's hand stopped for a moment, and Dai Mei couldn't help but frown slightly. Isn't that Lu Jiaojiao's grandmother? I am looking for her now to get an explanation for her granddaughter.

But she still responded calmly, "Let her in."

Soon, Feng Yang led an old lady over sixty years old in.

Although Mrs. Chengyu is older, her hair is still black and is tied up high in a half-updo. She is wearing luxurious and wealthy clothes, making her look very noble.

She was obviously a very energetic old lady, but now she walked in pretentiously, and every step seemed to be very difficult.

Her eyes were red, obviously she had been crying, and she would hide her face and shrug her shoulders from time to time, looking like she had been wronged.

When Mrs. Chengyu saw Nan Wanyan, her eyes flashed with a somewhat unclear meaning. She bowed tremblingly to Nan Wanyan, with a hint of age in her tone, "I have met Princess Minghuang. "

Nan Wanyan raised her eyes and glanced at the old lady coldly, still focusing on the memorial in front of her, and said calmly, "Old lady, there is no need to be polite."

"I wonder what the old lady is doing when she comes to see me today?"

Feng Yang stood next to Nan Wanyan, watching Mrs. Chengyu stand up tremblingly, looking like her body was fragile and crumbling, and suddenly she frowned slightly and felt cold and depressed.

Just now she watched the old lady walking over. She was walking as fast as flying and in good health. Now she was pretending to be so weak in front of the princess. She was clearly looking for trouble.

But Nan Wanyan didn't speak, and she couldn't interrupt. She could only wait and see.

Old Mrs. Chengyu looked at Nan Wanyan lowering her head to deal with palace affairs, unwilling to pay attention to her at all. She couldn't help but look stiff and feel angry.

But she calmed down her expression and immediately cried, "Princess, I know that the princess has many things to do every day and doesn't have much time to deal with other things, but my granddaughter, she is really pitiful!"

She wiped away the tears that had fallen from her eyes, and her originally straight back was deliberately bent three points, looking humble.

"I am not here for anything else. I just hope that Princess Minghuang can let Princess Hongmeng go. What happened yesterday was also impulsive by Hongmeng and was not really aimed at you, princess!"

When Feng Yang saw this, he immediately frowned and reprimanded, "Old Madam, yesterday it was Princess Hongmeng who spoke rudely to Princess Minghuang first, so several princes would punish Princess Hongmeng." "Now that you want Princess Minghuang to be released, then you have refuted it. The face of these princes!"

Who would have thought that Mrs. Chengyu wouldn't do this at all.

She continued to cry and stared at Nan Wanyan with red eyes, "Princess Minghuang, even if my words have no weight now, you can't do this to me?"

"I just want to ask you to release Hongmeng, but you, you actually asked a palace maid to send me away."

"I kneel down for you. Please let Princess Hongmeng go!"

After saying that, she knelt down and secretly glanced at Nan Wanyan to observe her reaction.

Just because Nan Wanyan came back, her granddaughter was no longer favored by your highnesses, and as a result, the entire Lu family was no longer as prosperous as before.

And this time it was even more outrageous. Jiao Jiao was punished by His Highness the Fourth Highness just because he spoke too harshly. It was simply too much!
Feng Yang clenched his fists calmly, his face under the veil was extremely cold.

This old thing knows how to be miserable and cry for injustice. If the Queen hadn't said that the adopted princess's family should treat her well and gave the Lu family such high power, how could this old lady be so tyrannical!

Nan Wanyan put down the pen in his hand, stared at Mrs. Cheng Yu with a sullen expression, and spoke sharply.

"Mrs. Chengyu, yesterday the fourth brother just punished Hongmeng to copy the book a hundred times. After copying, she can be free. It's not like she was put under house arrest. How can she be released?"

"Oh! How could it not be under house arrest?" Mrs. Chengyu's old face turned red from suppressing the pain, and she cried anxiously: "Jiaojiao is also a princess after all, and her status is extremely noble, but now she has to be punished to copy those messy things... A hundred times.”

"I, I don't think it's wrong for you to do this, princess, but in order to keep an eye on Princess Hongmeng, the Fourth Highness even sent someone to keep an eye on her. She is not allowed to leave the house until she has finished copying, and no one is allowed to visit her."

"Princess Hongmeng has been locked in the room and crying. I am really heartbroken when I hear this. Please let her go. If you don't let her go, I will not be able to kneel down..."

She held her face in her hands and cried loudly, her eyes hidden by her sleeves showing a bit of sharpness.

Her good granddaughter was not meant to be locked up in a house. This kind of punishment would be too harmful to a princess who wanted to compete for the throne!

Moreover, this must also be Nan Wanyan's method. In order to stabilize her position as the crown prince, she would treat her good granddaughter like this. It is simply disgusting!
Just saying it like this seems to be the princess's fault. If uninformed people hear it, they will think that the princess bullied this shameless old lady!

Feng Yang was anxious, but Nan Wanyan just stared at the old lady meaningfully, with a sneer at the corner of her mouth.

The Lu family's move was quite powerful. They asked an elderly lady to cause trouble.

If she doesn't let him go, the old lady won't be able to kneel down, and if anything happens then, I'm afraid those who don't see her becoming the heir apparent will complain again, and she won't be able to get any benefits.

But if she lets Hongmeng go, it will only increase Hongmeng's prestige.

In this palace, she cannot be protected by her brothers and aunt everywhere. After all, she still needs to establish the dignity she deserves.

Nan Wanyan lowered her eyes and handled palace affairs as if no one else was around, her tone full of undeniable authority.

"Old Madam Chengyu wants to kneel, so do it. Feng Yang, send the old lady out of the palace. The weather is nice outside, so let her kneel outside. When she is bored, she can enjoy the sun -"
