This child spoke these words so fluently, indicating that even if they haven’t said them multiple times before, they must have heard them at least a few times.
Madam Wang was well aware that this family had no blood ties with her; she had always wholeheartedly supported them for the Wang family, even sometimes indulging them to coerce her own daughter. When her daughter came to complain, she could only harden her heart and tell her daughter not to care about her anymore. Yet, they were still not satisfied. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
They wanted Ah Jue to marry their daughter, but they didn’t consider... how much the current Emperor cared for his brother. Nowadays, Ah Jue is a loyal king; how could they make the decision to grant a marriage for Ah Jue before he even returned?
After all, once the marriage is granted, there is no turning back. The Emperor’s words carry great weight, and he, being such a cautious person, would never issue a decree to grant marriage rashly.
"Master... the Emperor has sent Eunuch Wei here!" The steward of the Wang family hurriedly ran over and loudly announced from outside, "Master, you should quickly go and greet him!"
Nanny Qin was taken aback, not expecting the matter to have reached Bai Qingyan’s ears. She knew her mistress always protected her own, so if someone had been sent, it must be with a purpose, but...
Nanny Qin’s gaze fell on the Fourth Lady, who looked worried as she held Madam Wang’s hand, fearing that if Bai Qingyan intervened, it would inadvertently hurt Madam Wang, causing distress to the Fourth Lady.
Wang Dingkun stiffened upon hearing that the Emperor had sent someone, realizing that his daughter probably caused a huge trouble.
Due to the presence of Nanny Qin, who serves the Empress Dowager, Wang Dingkun quickly knelt before Madam Wang, saying, "Mother, I will go to meet Eunuch Wei, the Emperor’s envoy, first and return later to ask for your forgiveness!"
Afterward, Wang Dingkun bowed to Madam Wang and instructed Mrs. Wang Liu to take good care of the old madam before hurriedly hitching up his garment and rushing outside.
Wang Dingkun, sweating profusely, hurried to the front hall, only to see Wei Zhong casually sitting with his legs crossed, comfortably drinking tea in the front hall. He quickly approached and said, "Ah, Eunuch Wei, you’re so busy, why did you personally come? With Nanny Qin from the Empress Dowager’s side here, and my mother suddenly falling ill, it really must have worried the Emperor and the Empress Dowager. It’s my fault."
Wei Zhong looked at Wang Dingkun, who was bending and bowing, with a faint smile. He lowered his gaze, casually placing the teacup aside, and stood up slowly and deliberately: "Madam Wang is the maternal grandmother of our Emperor’s brother, King Zhong. Since the Madam was so upset she spat blood, the Emperor, being unable to come himself, naturally sent this old servant to check on her!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Dingkun stiffened, his throat dry, and he accompanied it with a forced smile: "It’s all because my daughter, spoiled by her mother, has been insensible. I ask the Emperor and you, Eunuch, not to worry. Once my mother recovers... I will certainly punish this disobedient child harshly!"
"Whether to punish or not, that is Master Wang’s family affair; it’s no concern of this old servant!" Wei Zhong flicked his whisk, smiling as he spoke, "I’ve come to deliver a message from the Emperor..."
Upon hearing this, Wang Dingkun hurriedly lifted the hem of his garment, knelt, and bowed.
"Master Wang, listen carefully!" Wei Zhong glanced at Wang Dingkun, who exhibited a respectful posture, and spoke, "The Emperor says, Madam Wang is the maternal grandmother of His Majesty’s brother. His Majesty’s brother fights bravely for the nation outside. If anyone seeks to exploit the old madam, His Majesty will surely not stand idly by. Since you are an adopted son, if you prove unfilial or develop improper greed, it’s not difficult for His Majesty to find another perceptive and honest person to adopt in your place..."
