Chapter 536
Xu Qiniang was Xu Qilangâs wife. When Mu Mingtang stayed at the Xu familyâs residence, the whole family was worried about the fact that the youngest son was not engaged. At that time, he was very carefree and light-spirited, so no one expected him to wed a gentle and quiet lady. Mu Mingtang knew Xu Qiniangâs temperament, so she didnât induce her to talk either. Xu Wuniang merely asked about the preparations and let out a sigh of relief, âI think that there is no problem. If there is anything that you require, just let us know and weâll help out anytime.â
Of course Mu Mingtang responded with a smile. In fact, there were so many workers in the palace that she did not need help from outsiders. However, this was the Xu familyâs good intentions after all, so she naturally would not refuse them outright.
Relieved after Xu Wuniang finished asking the serious questions, she started talking about everyday occurrences, âWhere is His Highness? For a child who clings to you all the time, Iâm quite surprised that heâs not around you.â
Although the enthronement ceremony was tomorrow, Mu Mingtangâs family had already moved to the palace and they were known as the royal family both inside and outside the palace. Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang only have one son, Xie Changan, so everyone started to address him by his title.
Mu Mingtang was also somewhat interested. In fact, she had always wanted a daughter, but Xie Xuanchen seemed to be somewhat traumatised by her last pregnancy and had been reluctant to have another child. Though, initially, he was the one who wanted his children to have siblings.
These thoughts went through Mu Mingtangâs mind for a while before she finally suppressed them and did not reveal them to outsiders. After that, Mu Mingtang and Xu Wuniang continued talking for a while. It was then that Xu Wuniang suddenly remembered something, âI almost forgot. A few days ago, a remaining captive of the Southern Ye Dynasty was captured. It seems to be a Noble Consort that was named...â
When Mu Mingtang heard it, she immediately completed the name, âWan Yanduo.â
âYes, Wan Yanduo,â Xu Wuniang said, âI just remember that it was a foreign name since it was incredibly difficult to remember. But yes, she is the one. I heard that the Southern Emperor died because of her?â
