The Little Darling Wife Who is a Divine Doctor Saved the Entire Family of the Duke's Mansion

Chapter 528

Therefore, when Emperor Shunwu spoke these words, it was an indirect way of indicating that on the day he regained power, he would not harm Concubine Yuan.

This served as a reassurance for Nan Yu.

Indeed, while Nan Yu resented the actions of Concubine Yuan in the past, he still longed for that mother-son bond.

Perhaps in time, they could reconcile and reunite as mother and son.

Nan Yu had previously held an unfavorable opinion of his biological father, Emperor Shunwu, due to the latter's incompetent and misguided rule.

However, he did not blame him for the incident where he was switched at birth.

After all, Emperor Shunwu was unaware of this.

Today, after interacting closely with Emperor Shunwu for the first time, Nan Yu's attitude towards him changed significantly.

After a moment's hesitation, Nan Yu solemnly bowed to Emperor Shunwu.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty. Your son will do everything in his power to turn the tide in the court and rescue you and... Noble Consort as soon as possible."

At the moment, he could not bring himself to address Concubine Yuan as "mother."

When Concubine Yuan saw that Nan Yu now addressed Emperor Shunwu as "father," but referred to her as "Noble Consort," her heart bled.

"My child, your mother made mistakes in the past. For over twenty years, I have lived in remorse - this is Heaven's punishment for me.

From now on, your mother will cherish and love you dearly. Can you forgive me?"

Seeing Concubine Yuan's sorrowful expression, Fei Nanyu could not help but be moved.

"I understand. Please give me some time." Let me slowly accept this.

Granny Wang now understood the situation, and seeing Concubine Yuan's heartbroken tears, she hurried to sit by her side and offer comfort.

Putting oneself in her shoes, if any of them had experienced such an ordeal, even with their own birth mother, it would be difficult to forgive immediately.

Concubine Yuan understood this in her heart. She silently told herself that in the future, she would gradually make amends to Nan Yu, allowing her son to truly accept her...

He Zhiran glanced at the large clock in the space and reminded, "It's getting late. I plan to leave the palace with The Third Prince before daybreak."

Although Emperor Shunwu had acknowledged Nan Yu's identity, he had not granted him a royal title like Nan Heng and the others. Therefore, He Zhiran simply addressed Nan Yu as The Third Prince.

Nan Yu also knew that it was not easy for Mo Jiuye and Madam Ninth to successfully escort him and Fe Mama into the palace. He could not linger there for long.

"Your Majesty, in that case, I will leave with them first. Please take care of yourselves. Wait for me to come and rescue you."

As for Fe Mama, Nan Yu had no favorable impression of her. Whether she lived or died was up to Concubine Yuan and the others to decide, but he promised to spare her life only because of her assistance to him recently.

"Very well. Your father and mother will wait here for your good news."

Emperor Shunwu had placed all his hopes on Nan Yu.

The group left the palace and arrived at the Fei Residence before dawn.

Although intelligent, Nan Yu was ultimately a powerless scholar.

Moreover, many people recognized him from his time spent with Nan Qi.

Now, despite having Emperor Shunwu's token, the biggest challenge was how to leave the city safely.

Seeing his furrowed brow, Mo Jiuye guessed the cause of his worry.

"Is The Third Prince troubled by leaving the city?"

Nan Yu did not hide it. "Indeed, with His Majesty's disappearance in the secret chamber, Prince Rui's faction will undoubtedly tighten security. It was already difficult to enter or exit the city gates, and now it will likely be even harder."

Mo Jiuye hesitated for a moment before speaking. "If The Third Prince wishes to leave the city, I can help you with that."

After all, his wife had already knocked him unconscious and sent him into that space once. The suspicion was unavoidable, so he might as well go all the way.

As the saying goes, "If you're going to send a Buddha, send it all the way west."

After pondering deeply at his desk for a while, Nan Yu stood up and took out the token Emperor Shunwu had given him, presenting it to Mo Jiuye.

"I trust Ninth Young Master. Take this token and find the troops at the location specified by His Majesty.

Later, I will visit Nan Qi and analyze the situation in the capital city for him. If we continue to sit idly, the Da Shun Dynasty will likely change hands.

Prince Rui is already aware of my true identity, and he has expressed his unconditional support, no matter what I do.

Although they do not hold much power, as princes, their public condemnation of Prince Rui's faction would carry more weight than anyone else.

I also plan to use this opportunity to observe the intentions of the ministers in the court, so I can be well-informed."

After speaking, Nan Yu went to the bookshelf and took out two signal flares, handing them to Mo Jiuye.

This type of signal flare was not unfamiliar to Mo Jiuye, as it was commonly used in border battles.

However, the signal flares used by Da Shun were inferior to the ones He Zhiran had.

These flares would not produce a bright light when fired, only a special sound.

Nonetheless, as long as they could send a signal, that was sufficient.

Nan Yu continued to explain his plan.

"After Ninth Young Master successfully finds the troops, lead them to ambush on the outskirts of the capital. At the same time, fire a signal to me.

I will use the forces under Nan Qi and Nan Rui to cause chaos in the capital. When the time is right, I will also fire a signal to alert you, and then you can lead the troops to attack the city."

Mo Jiuye did not expect Nan Yu to place such trust in him.

This token was the Da Shun Dynasty's last trump card.

If they lost this trump card, no matter how clever and cunning Nan Yu was, he might not be able to turn the tide.

Since Nan Yu trusted him, and he was willing to help, Mo Jiuye did not hesitate.

"Since The Third Prince trusts me, I will help The Third Prince this time."

Mo Jiuye's words had a dual meaning.

He was grateful for Nan Yu's trust in him and was willing to help out of friendship.

Secondly, he wanted to express that he had completely lost faith in the court. Even if the Da Shun Dynasty fell into Nan Yu's hands, he would choose to return to the Northwest as an ordinary citizen and never set foot in the officialdom's affairs again.

He said he would help The Third Prince this time, and the intelligent Nan Yu would surely understand his meaning.

Nan Yu indeed understood Mo Jiuye's intentions, but he was not ready to give up.

In his heart, the Mo family's men could shoulder half of the Da Shun Dynasty.

Without their protection, it would be too difficult for the country to remain stable.

Nan Yu was also aware of Mo Jiuye's pain and disappointment with the court. However, given the urgency of the situation, it was not the time for persuasion.

Therefore, Nan Yu chose not to mention the matter of the Mo family returning to court at the moment.

He respectfully bowed to Mo Jiuye.

"In that case, Nan Yu thanks Ninth Young Master and Madam Ninth for your noble assistance."
