Today, they happened to talk about this topic.
"Your mother was a very good woman. Her family was a noble family in the South Jin Kingdom. She met me when she came here with the diplomatic group. We had feelings for each other, but your mother's family wasn't happy about it. In the end … she married far away for me, but she couldn't reconcile with her family even after death."
Oh god, Wei Ziyao didn't know that there was such a story between them.
She only knew that her mother was from the South Jin Kingdom and that her family was rich and powerful. She didn't know anything else.
She didn't expect it to be such a romantic and sad love story.
"To me, your mother is love, responsibility, and faith. To me, Consort Duan is a friend, a brother, and a relative. Both of them are important, but they can't be compared."
Wei Ziyao obviously understood what Wei Heng meant. On one hand, she couldn't underestimate his love for her mother. On the other hand, she couldn't tarnish his friendship with Consort Duan.
"If that's the case, shouldn't we go to the palace to see what's going on? His Majesty and Consort Duan still have feelings for each other. Now that Qi Qianche has just been promoted to an important position, it is impossible for His Majesty to banish Consort Duan to the Cold Palace for no reason. If he really did punish her, it can only mean that … either Consort Duan did something unforgivable, or … His Majesty made this decision in a moment of impulse. "
Wei Ziyao still wanted to persuade Wei Heng to let her go.
However, this father of his was a stubborn one.
"No matter what the reason is, it's the Emperor's family matter. It has nothing to do with you."
Wei Ziyao pouted after being scolded. "And you, no matter what decision you make, you should discuss it with your man. Don't make the decision yourself. So, if there's anything, you should wait for Che 'er to come back and discuss it with him before making a decision."
There was no choice. Wei Ziyao was being watched and couldn't go out.
Ki Chien-chul was worried about Wei Shuo and probably wouldn't come back early tonight.
Just like that, the two of them were tied up, making the Northern Wen Emperor in the palace very anxious.
"You haven't entered the palace yet?"
He asked Eunuch Fu anxiously.
Eunuch Fu was helpless. He had asked five or six times this afternoon.
"Replying to Your Majesty, no."
"These two have no conscience. They usually come to the palace every few days, but now that such a big thing has happened, neither of them came!!"
The Northern Wen Emperor paced back and forth anxiously.
Then, as if he suddenly thought of something, he stopped and looked at Eunuch Fu.
"Are you sure the news has been spread?"
"Your Majesty, this old servant must have spread the news, but this old servant doesn't know why His Highness King Yin and Princess Consort haven't come to plead for mercy yet."
Eunuch Fu really wanted to cry but had no tears.
How awe-inspiring was it when he locked her up?
Now, he couldn't even find a way out of this situation.
The two of them didn't come in to plead for leniency, so he couldn't bring himself to let them out.
"You unfilial son! They were all unfilial sons! How good was Consort Duan to that kid? He didn't even care about his own mother for the sake of his wife's younger brother! This unfilial son! "
"…" Eunuch Fu was speechless. Was he already starting to look for someone to take the blame?
You were the one who locked her up!
