Your Majesty, the princess is fleeing famine with her child!

Chapter 172 I Think of an Idea

Upon hearing that their son had returned, Yun Gansong and Xiang stopped arguing and both showed surprise on their faces.

Soon, a tall and handsome young man entered the room.

The man was wearing a green student robe, his long black hair was tied up with a white jade crown, and a mutton-fat carp pendant hung around his waist. His low-key and elegant appearance revealed a hint of wealth and luxury.

This young man was Yun Qingmu, the eldest son of Yun Gansong and Xiang.

As soon as Yun Qingmu entered the room, he asked, "Dad, Mom, what is going on?"

"I went back to the Marquis Jichun's mansion, but was driven out. They said that my family was not of the Yun family's bloodline."

"Luckily I met Chunrong who was with my father, and then I knew that our family had moved here."

"I heard from Chunrong that Yun Fuling is back. Was she the one who drove my parents out of the Marquis Jichun's mansion?"

Yun Qingmu had been studying at Lushan Academy in Qingzhou. If he had not come back this time, he would not have known about the recent events at home.

As soon as Xiang saw her son, she seemed to regain her confidence and started crying:

"It wasn't that little bitch who did it!"

"That fire didn't burn her to death. She's really lucky!"

"Now that she's back, she not only hooked up with His Royal Highness Prince Yi and became Prince Yi's Consort, but she also spread the news that your father is not of the Yun family's bloodline, forcing us to leave the Jichun Marquis's Mansion."

"The two damn old men from the Hang and Ouyang families both sided with Yun Fuling. They are all the old man's direct disciples, so their words carry more weight than ours!"

Yun Qingmu frowned: "Yun Fuling has someone backing her up, we are not pushovers!"

"Didn't the Anguo Mansion help? The Anguo Mansion and our family are relatives by marriage. Even for the sake of my eldest sister, they can't just sit there and do nothing, right?"

"And the Queen Mother, hasn't Dad always relied on the Queen Mother the most?"

Yun Gansong's face became even darker when he heard this.

Xiang's tears fell like beads from a broken string.

"Don't even mention the Anguo Mansion. They are a family of heartless fence-sitters!"

"As soon as they saw that we were in trouble, the Duke of Anguo's Mansion didn't even bother to help us. Instead, they cut off all ties with us and even disowned their marriage to Lingzhi!"

"Your father requested to see the Queen Mother several times, but was rejected each time."

"Now that your father has lost his position as imperial physician, it will be even more difficult for him to enter the palace to see the Queen Mother again."

Yun Qingmu was horrified: "How could Dad lose his position as imperial physician?"

Xiang thought that he would know the truth sooner or later, so he told everyone what Yun Lingzhi had done.

Yun Qingmu frowned: "Sister is so confused!"

There are plenty of ways to seize this marriage with the Duke of Anguo's Mansion.

Even if he wanted to make the marriage a fait accompli with An Yulin and force the Anguo Mansion to recognize the marriage, he could also plan it carefully to ensure that there would be no mistakes.

But Yun Lingzhi took the most risky move and acted alone in the palace.

Not only did he fail, but he was caught red-handed.

I have really lost my mind!

Xiang held Yun Qingmu's hand tightly, "Mu'er, think of a way to save your sister."

"If your sister is really sent to the frontier army as a military prostitute, her life will be ruined!"

Yun Qingmu pursed his lips and almost rolled his eyes.

This is an order issued by His Majesty himself. How can he, a person without any official position or even any achievements, make His Majesty revoke the order?

Moreover, even if Yun Lingzhi was not exiled to the border, the things she had done would probably have spread throughout the capital by now.

She has already lost her virginity to the Prince of Yu, let alone the Duke of Anguo's Mansion, which good family would want such a daughter-in-law?

Even if she is rescued, she can't expect a good marriage.

As for marrying Prince Yu as a concubine, Prince Yu had a bad reputation and was annoyed because Yun Lingzhi had schemed against him. It seemed that he already disliked Yun Lingzhi.

It can be said that Yun Lingzhi's life has been ruined.

Why spend time and money on someone who no longer has any value? Isn't this a pure waste!

However, facing the crying Xiang family, Yun Qingmu couldn't say what was in his heart, so he could only perfunctorily say:

"Mother, this is the order from His Majesty himself, and it cannot be changed."

"We can only wait until my sister is exiled, and then find a way to bribe the escorting officers and do something unsuccessful on the way."

"Or, after my sister reaches the border, I can bribe the guards and ask them to report my death, so that my sister can fake her own death and escape."

Xiang stopped crying immediately, her eyes sparkling, "As expected of my son, you came up with two good ideas right away!"

"Your sister is so weak, how can she bear the hardship of being exiled? I think we should not let your sister go through the border. We should just let her fake her death in prison and get out."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yun Gansong glared at her fiercely.

"Woman, you really don't have any brains. Your son's good ideas can turn into bad ones when they reach your head."

"Why do you think my son would wait until he was exiled to take action? Of course, it's because he is far away from the emperor and wants to avoid being seen."

"Faking your own death in the prison, are you a pig-brained person?"

"Not to mention the strict guards in the prison, even if he took the fake death drug, there are so many famous doctors in the capital, not to mention the imperial doctors in the palace. If we send a doctor to check and someone finds out, the consequence will not only be Lingzhi being exiled to the border, but our whole family may be implicated."

Only then did Xiang realize his own stupidity.

She said awkwardly, "I didn't think of that."

Because Yun Lingzhi was saved, Xiang's anxious mood was slightly relieved.

But when she thought that all this was caused by Yun Fuling, she couldn't help but grit her teeth in hatred.

"Mu'er, our family is now like this, it's all Yun Fuling's fault!"

"We can't just let it go like this!"

"What's more, she must hate us very much in her heart. At the moment, it may not be enough to just drive us out of the Marquis' Mansion."

"Who knows if she has any backup plans? What if she wants to kill us all? Are we just going to wait for death?"

Yun Qingmu understood Xiang’s concerns, but his mind was much clearer than Xiang’s.

Yun Fuling not only took back the Jichunhou Mansion and Jishidiang, but also became the Princess Yi, and also won over the Hang family and the Ouyang family for help.

Looking at his own side, without the marriage to the Duke of Anguo's Mansion, Yun Gansong even lost his position as imperial physician, and the empress dowager avoided him.

If they try to confront Yun Fuling head-on, isn't that like hitting a rock with an egg?

Yun Qingmu comforted Xiang and said, "Mom, don't be afraid. Does she dare to kill us?"

"Now everyone knows that we have a grudge against her. If anything happens to us, she will definitely be the first person to be suspected."

"She is now tied to Prince Yi, and even for the sake of Prince Yi's reputation, she will not act rashly."

Like Yun Gansong and Xiang, these people were like frightened birds, feeling uneasy.

After hearing Yun Qingmu's words, the two felt much more relieved.

Yun Qingmu suddenly changed the subject and said, "Dad, Mom, I came back this time for something important."
