Chapter 1018: Chapter 856, Establishing the Name

As Duke Cheng’en Residence and the Third Prince Residence were successively surrounded, the events unfolding there became known throughout Beijing.

The Emperor was injured and fell into a coma, Duke Cheng’en, and the Third Prince took the opportunity to stage a coup. Duke Cheng’en died, and the Emperor’s uncle appeared; each and every occurrence was astonishing beyond measure. _{freeweɓnovēl.coɱ}

Cining Palace.

Hearing that the coup had failed and Duke Cheng’en had been killed by a tiger, the Empress Dowager was so shocked that she fainted.

The Empress stood before the Empress Dowager’s bed, her face tired and confused.

The Jiang Family... ruined!

Indeed, when the Emperor had found her and asked her to spread the rumor that the Empress Dowager was not his biological mother, she had already sensed the inevitable downfall of the Jiang Family.

This time, her father had launched a coup in the enclosure, a treasonous act, finally giving the Emperor a legitimate reason to deal with the Jiang Family.

Yan Family.

Since the Minister of Revenue had gone to the enclosure, someone needed to manage the affairs of the Ministry, so Yan Zhigao did not accompany him. If he did not go, the women of the Yan Family naturally would not go either.

Hearing that Duke Cheng’en and the Third Prince had launched a coup, the Yan Family members were terrified. Although the situation was now under control, they were still worried about Daohua, Xiao Yeyang, and Yan Wentao, fearing they might be injured.

However, what surprised the Yan Family most was Gu Jian’s identity.

"Who would have thought Old Master Gu was actually the Emperor’s uncle!"

Watching a face full of astonishment, Madam Li calmly said, "There should be no more idle talk about Yiyi and Yeyang at home now, their union was personally approved by Old Madam Gu and Old Master Gu themselves."

Yan Zhiyuan and Madam Sun shared an embarrassed smile, both understood that Madam Li was indirectly referring to Yile, "How could it be, Yiyi and Yeyang are a match made in heaven, perfectly created for each other."

As dusk approached, Han Xinran went to the kitchen to check if dinner was ready but halfway there, she saw nanny Han approaching.

"What’s the matter?"

Nanny Han: "Just now, the nanny close to Madam came over, she wants the young mistress to visit home."

Han Xinran frowned: "Are my parents back from the enclosure?"

Nanny Han nodded: "An hour ago, the Emperor’s procession entered the city."

With a sneer, Han Xinran said, "Mother is indeed eager." She must have learned that her big sister’s master is the Emperor’s uncle and wants to gain favor through the Yan Family.

"Nanny, please reply for me, saying thanks to my older sister’s blessing, I am now very busy with family affairs at my in-laws’ home."

Having said that, she directly walked away.

Nanny Han repeated Han Xinran’s exact words to the butler nanny of Madam Han. Then, she sighed to herself, "Ever since the issue with the fourth young mistress and the second young master, Madam has never shown a happy face to the young mistress. Every day, she lives in trepidation, truly too busy to return to the Han Residence."

Seeing that Han Xinran didn’t even show her face, the butler nanny felt a bit heavy-hearted, and smilingly said, "I will talk to Madam about it carefully when I return."

Earl Zhaode Residence.

Han Xinman did not immediately return to the Fang Family but stayed at the Han Residence waiting for Han Xinran’s response. When she heard from the butler nanny that Han Xinran couldn’t come, her face darkened immediately, "My younger sister is increasingly adept at giving people the cold shoulder."

Madam Han with furrowed brows, realizing that if her younger daughter really distanced herself from her maternal home, there wasn’t much she could do but told her eldest daughter, "You go back first, I will think of a solution for your younger sister’s situation later."

Duke Residence.

Guo Ruomei handed over the medicine a maid had delivered and personally fed Duke, "Father, you can finally rest easy now. Daohua is married to Yangyang, and Yangyang is not at a disadvantage."

The Duke laughed softly, "I never said Yangyang was at a disadvantage, it’s just that his childhood was not easy, and he will have to shoulder the responsibility of Prince Residence in the future. I just want his wife to support him so that he does not carry the burden alone."

Pausing, he added,

"The matter of the Emperor’s birth mother was kept too well hidden by the Empress and the Jiang Family all those years; I received no inkling of it. Yangyang being able to serve his biological grandmother is his good fortune."

Guo Ruomei smiled, "That’s greatly thanks to Yangyang’s wife."

The Duke nodded, "You’re right, Yangyang’s wife is truly a fortunate presence who brings prosperity to her husband. I heard that Yangyang and the Prince are no longer as strained as they used to be."

Daohua looked bewildered at her master, was this what she meant?

Xiao Yeyang approached and just heard Gu Jian’s words. Seeing the hope in his uncle’s eyes, he dared not speak his refusal.

Seeing that Daohua didn’t respond, the light in Gu Jian’s eyes dimmed, "If you are unwilling, let’s forget I mentioned it."

Daohua quickly said, "Master, I am not unwilling, it’s just... childbirth is too painful. I plan to have at most two children. If both are sons, I am naturally willing to adopt one out to you, but if I have daughters..."

Gu Jian immediately said, "A girl is also good, when she grows up, we can take in a son-in-law, as long as it continues the Gu Family’s lineage."

Daohua, "Then I have no problem." Saying that, she looked towards Xiao Yeyang, "He is the father of the children, we should also ask his thoughts."

Gu Jian’s gaze immediately fell on Xiao Yeyang.

Xiao Yeyang, seeing Gu Jian’s ’ready to fight if he disagreed’ look, felt somewhat helpless, "Uncle, isn’t it too early to talk about this? We don’t even know where the child is yet."

Gu Jian, "With both of you being so healthy, having children is only a matter of time." Looking at Daohua, "Is having only two too few?"

Daohua looked at Xiao Yeyang.

Daohua, "... I’m afraid of pain."

Xiao Yeyang fell silent, two it is, then.

As for the adoption, he was not averse to it. His mother-in-law and uncle had been good to him, and he had done little for them. If he could help continue the Gu Family’s legacy and fulfill his uncle’s wish, he was willing.

Moreover, the prince’s residence had only one title; it was destined that the other child would need to make their own way. If the other one could inherit the dukedom, it would be more than ideal.

Seeing that both Xiao Yeyang and Daohua were willing to adopt out a child, Gu Jian’s spirits lifted instantly, and he felt inclined to ask about the Jiang Family’s situation, "How has the Emperor decided the Jiang Family’s guilt?"

Xiao Yeyang, "Uncle Emperor didn’t inquire personally but let the Ministry of Justice and the Court of Justice jointly adjudicate the Jiang Family and the Third Prince’s conspiracy. Uncle, don’t worry, the evidence is conclusive, the Jiang Family can’t escape."

Gu Jian then asked, "What about the Empress Dowager?"

Xiao Yeyang, "The Empress Dowager is still in a coma."
