I’ll Be the Male Leads Sister-in-Law

Chapter 538

There was not much news about the Jiang family later on. The last time Mu Mingtang heard of Jiang Honghao was that he was poor and seriously ill. Madam Jiang had even took Xiruan under her care and left him.

Jiang Honghao had spent his entire life in officialdom, seeking fame and a grand reputation, which also led him to sell his two daughters in succession for his own glory and wealth. Hence, when he died, there was no one and nothing of his around him.

He had no money, no power and no children. Even his first wife, who had been submissive to him for most of his life, abandoned him.

The daughter he sold off for glory ended up leaving him with nothing as well.

Xu Wuniang didn’t know Mu Mingtang’s feelings and was still talking about external matters, “After His Majesty unified the world, the surrounding smaller countries were so frightened that they all declared themselves vassals and paid tribute. Tomorrow’s enthronement ceremony will be held by Dali, Gaoli, Xinluo, Heihan, etc. Point is, all the vassals are coming to pay their respects to you,” Xu Wuniang said with pride, “In the past few years, these small countries were all ready to make their move and some even dared to yearn for equal footing with the Ye Dynasty. Say, don’t you think that some of these smaller countries are so brazen?”

Hearing these words, the Xu family and the surrounding palace servants all laughed. Everyone gathered around Mu Mingtang and flattered her once again. While they were talking, a palace servant hurriedly walked in from outside. When she saw Mu Mingtang, she greeted her, “Your Royal Highness the Empress, when His Highness the Prince couldn’t find you upon waking up, he was adamant about climbing a tree to find you. This humble servant was not able to stop him in time, please check on the situation quickly, Your Royal Highness.”

Climb a tree? Mu Mingtang felt a headache after hearing this. Upon seeing this, Xu Wuniang and Xu Qiniang hurriedly left.

Mu Mingtang didn’t have time to exchange pleasant goodbyes to them. After arranging for the palace servant to escort the two out of the palace, she hurried to the Xuanzheng Palace. The son that Xie Xuanchen had part in giving birth to was seriously becoming a worrisome boy.

At this moment in the garden, the sun was shining brightly and the leaves were a luscious green. In fact, this was the best time during the midsummer season. However, the servants and guards of the Xuanzheng Palace were not in the mood to enjoy the leisurely afternoon. They gathered together and spoke fearfully to the person up on the tree, “Your Highness, please come down quickly! The wind is strong from up there, please be careful to not slip!”

Xie Changan was sitting on the treetop, his whole body swaying along with the wind, which made the people below him tremble. Nowadays, any sort of breeze was capable of scaring the palace servants out of their wits. They didn’t even dare to use a louder voice, trying to coax the young Prince to come down with soft tones, “Your Highness, His Majesty and Her Royal Highness will be here anytime. Please come down soon.”

Just as they finished speaking, they suddenly saw the person on the treetops moving. Following Xie Changan’s movements, the branches shook violently, shaking off several leaves. The royal nanny was so frightened that she almost lost her breath, “Your Highness, please be careful! Don’t move, your nanny will go up there and pick you up right now.”
