"Old Madam Yan, First Lady, Second Lady, Third Lady."

When the Yan family's womenfolk followed the eunuch through the front hall, they were stopped by a pretty girl about 15 or 16 years old.

"Greetings to Princess Mingzhu."

Several people saw someone came and hurriedly saluted. Among them, Third Lady Yan, Yan Chu's biological mother, had the most complicated feelings for this princess.

If there was no such thing, the present one was not only Zhou's most honorable princess but also her future daughter-in-law.

At the end of this year, the princess and her son should hold a wedding ceremony!

It was a pity that the princess would not marry if something like this happened.

However, Third Lady Yan had some hope in her heart. Princess Mingzhu always liked her son. Maybe the other side would be willing to plead for leniency on his behalf.

"Are you ladies going to plead for leniency on Older Brother Yan's behalf?"

Zhou Mingzhu was the young daughter of Zhou's empress. Her elder brother was Zhou's crown prince. As only two princesses in the palace, she was still the empress' legitimate child and was loved by all.

She had a tender natural disposition, never spoiled and arrogant. Compared with the eldest princess, who was born out of a foreign woman, an eccentric and always treated people coldly, she got more admired inside and outside the palace.

When Princess Mingzhu was born, the five sons of the Yan family had killed in the vassal state of Yan. To express their loyalty and consolation to the Yan family, Zhou's emperor promised her to Yan Chu. When she was a child, Princess Mingzhu often went to the Yan family, or the empress called Yan Chu into the palace. They said they were childhood sweethearts[1]. It was not too much.

However, when the two grew up, Yan Chu began to enter the Yan family's army, the relationship between the two gradually lessened, and their feelings were no longer as close as when they were children.

"Just now I already beseeched Father Emperor, but Father Emperor was very angry about what Older Brother Yan did. He wouldn't listen to anyone's words at all. Ladies, even for the sake of Older Sister Ying, don't ask any analogy of the plea for leniency to Father Emperor again."

Zhou Mingzhu's expression was very awkward, but she was able to take the initiative to ask for a plea for leniency with His Majesty at such a time, which made the Yan family very grateful. After thanking each other repeatedly, the Yan family's womenfolk followed that eunuch to the Xuanshi Hall, where the emperor received the court councilors.

"Mother, truly, what the princess said may not be unreasonable. I know that Yan Chu, that child is innocent, but now there is solid evidence, and you also hurt Yingying and them, these granddaughters, ah."

First Lady Yan pleaded softly in the elderly lady's ear. She had been married to the Yan family for many years. She was the first daughter-in-law of the Yan family, but she was useless. She only gave birth to three daughters to the Yan family and did not leave any heir for her husband. Because of this, she was in the wrong. So in these years, her parents-in-law kept the good things close to the third branch families instead of them, the main branch. She also endured it! Who lets other people's stomachs have the ability to give birth to the son?
