Chapter 493 - 493: Peaceful Place
On the streets of the capital, the Liu family became the biggest news in the teahouses of the capital for a while.
Passerby A invited Passerby B to a teahouse to chat.
“You still don’t know, right?”
“I heard that the Liu family’s daughter has become the empress…”
At this point, Passerby A paused and nervously looked around to see if there were any suspicious people listening in. What he was going to say next should not be heard by anyone, but he still approached Passerby B and whispered.
“Her conduct is not good. Ever since she entered the Palace, the Liu family has been in trouble. Now, the reputation of the Liu family’s daughters is even worse.”
“Now, even the large storeroom at home had caught fire!”
“If you ask me, this Liu family’s girl is not suitable to enter the palace to be an empress. I can’t stand it anymore. This family is all wicked!”
“How can you be the mother of the world!”
After Passerby B heard the gossip, he looked for Passerby C and continued to chat about the first-hand news.
Passerby C went to look for Passerby D after hearing the news… In the end, Passerby X shared it with his friends.
“I heard that the Liu family’s empress is an extremely vicious woman…”
“We’ve been punished by the heavens, and our family has suffered a disaster. The emperor is probably going to depose the empress. Otherwise, hell jinx our Xi Liang’s new emperor. What should we do?”
“That’s right!’
For a time, such rumors were all over the capital.
Two days later, at the Xuanzheng Hall,
Prime Minister Wang made an example. “The Empress is lacking in virtue. She is not suitable to be the mother of the world. She can’t set an example…”
Below was a long list of ironclad evidence of what the Empress’s uncles and brothers had done over the years.
“Emperor, please reconsider.”
Minister Liu and the second and third-grade officials of the Liu family all had black faces…
Not waiting for their faces to turn black for a second, more than a dozen people stepped forward one after another and submitted the same memorial as Prime Minister Wang.
The Liu family members were really panicking now.
MO Ruyue and the others would not know about the turmoil in the imperial court. Even if Gu Ying knew what was going to happen today, his heart was still on MO Ruyue’s. He could not care about those things. Seeing that they were about to enter Reliance Town, they were all eager to return home.
Arriving at Reliance Town was no different from reaching home. They would be home in less than half a cup of tea’s time.
“Brother, is that uncle?”
“Was that Uncle? Since Eldest Uncle is back, is Mother back too?”
“Is Mother sitting in the carriage next to him? Quick, quick, quick!”
Tang Tang pulled Si Bao and asked as she spoke. Before she could finish, the two little fellows ran toward the group of carriages.
Wang Tiezhu, Qin Qingfei, Hua Jianan, and the others did not manage to catch up. Although there were not many people on the street, they were still drenched in sweat.
“My little ancestor, run slower, run slower!”
“It’s your Mother who’s back. They won’t run away again. Don’t fall…”
The few of them chased and shouted, but the two little fellows were still in the crowd and nimbly scuttled to the front of the group of people.
When MO Ruyue and the others came back, the carriage was originally in the middle because the Xue Family Bodyguard Agency was following them.
When they were about to reach Reliance Town, MO Ruyue asked the coachman to bring her carriage to the front of the group. She was worried that her family would be disappointed if they didn’t see her when they received the letter and knew that they were coming back today.
Since MO Ruyue’s carriage was already at the front, Gu Ying naturally rode on his horse and continued to follow.
Not long after the carriage arrived, MO Ruyue vaguely heard Tanh Tang’s voice.
She looked out the window at Gu Ying. “Did you hear Tang Tang’s voice? I think I heard Tang Tangs voice. Are they here to pick us up?
Gu Ying moved his ears, wanting to listen carefully. Before he could answer, the few people who were running toward them and trying their best to chase after the two children in front of them were exactly what they were thinking about!
Even MO Ruyue had seen it.
“Stop the carriage!’
The coachman had followed MO Ruyue here, and he was one of the four guards.
How could he not listen to the princess? He immediately reined in the reins.
Before the carriage had even stopped, MO Ruyue jumped off the carriage, causing Gu Ying’s hands to itch.
He didn’t manage to pull her in.
“Mother, is that really you?
When the two little fellows saw the person who jumped down from the carriage, their eyes curved up. However, they wanted to see more clearly. They did not even dare to blink as they ran and asked.
“Tang Tang, Si Bao’s mother is here, mother is back!”
MO Ruyue quickly ran toward the two children. The pedestrians on the street had already stopped to watch the large group of people entering the town.
“Mother, Mother”
“Mother~”
Si Bao would occasionally act coquettishly, but he was too embarrassed to be like his sister. No matter what the venue was, he had to maintain his upbringing outside.
But now, he had forgotten about all that. He didn’t even remember to follow the rules when he was outside. Now, he was even better at acting coquettishly than Tang Tang.
“Hey, mother’s two babies. Mother missed you so much.”
“Yo, Doctor MO is back!”
“Ah, Divine Doctor MO is back. Sigh!”
“Ah, it’s been a long time. Doctor MO is finally back!”
“Where did Doctor MO go? I haven’t seen you in town for so long?”
MO Ruyue was not in the mood to answer those people. She only smiled and nodded.
There were still many people who asked the same question over and over again. She did not have the time to answer them. She pulled the two little babies into the carriage and told the coachman to speed home.
A group of people passed through Reliance Town. Soon, the streets became lively because of MO Ruyue.
When such a large group of people entered the village, it was naturally a lively scene.
After they returned to the village, the whole village flocked to MO Ruyue’s house to welcome her and Gu Ying home.
They had not been home for more than a month, and the entire village really missed them.
Especially MO Ruyue.
She gave out ideas to teach them how to farm, how to pick herbs, and how to plant all kinds of things.
Although MO Ruyue had been on bad terms with many people when she first came to the village, West River Village was peaceful now.
In the past, no matter if everyone liked her or not, they all missed her when they saw that she had not returned for more than a month.
The people from the Xue Family Bodyguard Agency sent them to their destination. They were supposed to go back directly, but Gu Ying stayed behind.
Even if they left now, they would have to stay in Lianshan County or the next town in the evening.
It was quite hard for them to run around all year round. These were his good brothers. Moreover, Xue Qing was also here. He asked them to leave tomorrow so that he could meet Xue Qing properly.
Thus, the team agreed to stay in the military compound for the night.
When the villagers saw that the two nannies and eight maidservants were dressed even more extravagantly than the young ladies of the big families in town, they were all dumbfounded. What was going on?
“It’s good that you’re back. You’re tired from the journey.”
“Everyone, go home. When they come back to their senses, it won’t be too late for you to come back and chat.”
The village chief saw that everyone in the village was crowded in front of MO Ruyue’s house, chattering away and asking all sorts of questions. There was also a group of people who came back with MO Ruyue and the others. The old village chief came over in high spirits to maintain order..
