His temper came so suddenly.
Even Empress Zhong, who was sitting at the side, looked at him in confusion.
Was there any taboo with the name Wan’nuo?
Seeing that Yun Linzhou was unhappy…
Empress Zhong quickly said, “Alright, alright, alright. I’ll arrange for the Palace Bureau to change it for her later.”
“Change it now,” Yun Linzhou said coldly.
His attitude was clearly not giving in at all.
Empress Zhong had always been dignified, so she was a little unhappy to be disobeyed by Yun Linzhou.
She immediately frowned. “Zhou’er, you…”
“Change it.” Yun Linzhou didn’t listen to her at all and interrupted her firmly.
The eyes of the palace maid called Wan’nuo were already red.
She had wanted to take the opportunity to curry up to the crown prince, but why did he despise her just because of a name?
Empress Zhong’s expression was tense, and her small and red nails dug into her palms.
After taking a deep breath to calm down, she called the other palace servants over.
“Bring Wan’nuo to the Palace Bureau and change her name in the book. From now on, she’ll be called ‘Wansi’.”
“Wansi, hurry up and thank the crown prince.”
Tears welled up in the palace maid’s eyes as she felt aggrieved.
She bowed to Yun Linzhou. “Thank you, Your Highness.”
Yun Linzhou retracted his gaze and didn’t look at her.
He then slowly walked up to Empress Zhong, cupped his hands, and said politely, “Greetings, Mother.”
Seeing that he still knew the rules, Empress Zhong nodded and smiled. “Sit. Where did you go just now?”
“I had the palace servants accompany me for a walk and get familiar with the inner palace.”
Empress Zhong nodded in satisfaction. “Alright. You’ve just returned and have many things to learn.
“Mother has arranged three teachers for you. They are all capable officials. Tomorrow, they will go to the East Palace to assist you in handling government affairs.
“If there’s anything you don’t understand, ask them.”
Yun Linzhou knew that the three people Empress Zhong had chosen were all officials from the Zhong Family.
The crown prince’s East Palace was equivalent to a small imperial court.
She couldn’t wait to stuff her own people in to interfere with his affairs.
Yun Linzhou couldn’t help but sneer inwardly at this.
However, on the surface, he was still gentle and elegant.
“Mother, this son has no objections to your arrangements. However, this son also has a request and wants Mother to help.”
When Empress Zhong heard this, her expression softened a lot.
As long as Yun Linzhou asked her for help, this would be a good opportunity to deepen their mother-son relationship.
“We are mother and son. There’s no need to ask for favors. Just say it.”
Yun Linzhou’s eyes were dark. “Tomorrow night, Father will hold a welcoming banquet for Wei Cang and the others.”
“I want Mother to invite Princess Yaoguang from Qinghe Hall to the banquet in your name.”
Empress Zhong was stunned. “What?”
Qinghe Palace was Consort Lu’s residence!
She frowned. “Princess Yaoguang? Is she the one who came from Great Qi this time around?”
Yun Linzhou nodded and didn’t comment.
Empress Zhong narrowed her eyes. “Zhou’er, you’re muddle-headed. That’s an enemy country’s princess.
“She can even be a prisoner. How can Mother invite her to the banquet in my name? Wouldn’t that anger His Majesty?”
Yun Linzhou explained calmly, “Mother probably doesn’t know yet. When Princess Yaoguang entered the palace today, she bumped into Consort Lu and the two of them had a good chat.
“Under Consort Lu’s guarantee, Father has already agreed to let Princess Yaoguang stay in Qinghe Hall for the time being.
“Mother, why don’t you think about it carefully? If Consort Lu’s actions have a deeper meaning, how can you be one step behind her?”
Empress Zhong’s eyes darkened when she heard this. She pursed her lips and pondered.
“You’re saying that I have to be like Consort Lu and show Princess Yaoguang my friendliness and sincerity?”
Yun Linzhou revealed a rare faint smile.
“Mother understands me.”
