Chapter 496: Does the Late Emperor Have Any Posthumous Son?
In the last life, did something happen to Princess Ruian? She was a little confused. After all, these things must be too far away from her. She was just a painter who came to the palace to paint portraits of beautiful ladies, and she was still temporary. How could she know about such matters within the royal family.
There seems to be a vague feeling that what happened to Princess Ruian in the end was because of a woman, and it seemed to be related to Yuhui'an. On that day, two palace maids were secretly hiding aside and chatting, and she happened to be hiding from Shao Yanru, who came in a rage, and she was also hiding from Shao Yanru. As I walked into the flowers and shrubs, I just listened to it.
"The late emperor... the eldest princess is pitiful... the woman named... Mo confessed... Yu Hui'an..." Bits and pieces of memories were brought out.
Mo Qiuyi had lived near her for so long, she had never thought of this, and then she was suddenly lifted up.
If I guessed well based on these scattered memories and words, this Mo Qiuyi should be the one who handed over the eldest princess in her previous life.
But Shao Wanru couldn't figure out what exactly she was confessing, and what treasonous things the eldest princess had done that could be confessed by an unknown woman.
Originally they were not from the same place. This woman named Mo Qiuyi has been going to the mountain for many years. I heard that she has always been safe and sound. She also helps with some things in Yuhui Nunnery. She is also in her yard on weekdays. After coming out, there would be no contact between her grandmother and her.
But if it weren't for her, this woman would be too suspicious!
Who is that person from her hometown? Why must she be led by her grandmother? Can she think that in her previous life, she also found her grandmother and asked her grandmother to take someone down the mountain? Something big happened at Yu Hui'an, and it hasn't been found out yet. Could it be related to Mo Qiuyi's fellow villager?
Then her so-called fellow countrymen have a big problem!
Shuimu pondered more and more, no matter whether the previous life was related to this Mo Qiuyi, there must be something wrong with this Mo Qiuyi.
"When will grandma come over!" After taking a deep breath, Shao Wanru slowly calmed down the depression in his heart, and his bright eyes showed a bit of coldness.
In the past few days, the eldest princess of Ruian has been coming to talk to her from time to time. The grandfather and grandson get along very peacefully and warmly!
"The eldest princess should be here, please go to the door and have a look!" Qing'er trotted out. She was the youngest and the most out-of-the-box among them. She looked very innocent, but she was Chu Liuchen. Sent here.
A maid skilled in martial arts was sent to Shao Wanru for self-defense. If there was anything special, she could be asked to call someone. Chu Liuchen also had secret guards, who were also called by Qing'er.
"Miss, that woman stopped the eldest princess!" Qing'er suddenly said loudly at the door.
Shao Wanru walked towards the door. Yujie took a big umbrella next to her and held it up to protect Shao Wanru from the rain.
The rain was not heavy, but it kept falling, and the ground was already wet. Just a few feet away from the courtyard gate, Mo Qiuyi knelt in front of the eldest princess Ruian, kowtowing and crying, begging for the eldest princess Ruian. The eldest princess.
Grand Duke Ruian was a cold-faced man with a soft heart. Seeing such a pretty little girl kneeling in front of him, he couldn't help but ask questions.
Shao Wanru was far away, and when he walked slowly over, he saw Mo Qiuyi standing up, as if she wanted to say something in the ear of the eldest princess Ruian.
Shao Wanru had a bad intuition, so he reached out and picked up a stone at hand, and threw it at Mo Qiuyi, breaking his mother's discipline.
Upon seeing it, Qing'er hurriedly picked up another larger stone, weighed it twice in her hands, and threw it at Mo Qiuyi.
Shao Wanru was not sure, and the stone fell to the side, but he was also shocked that everyone looked up to see who was so unruly.
"Eldest Princess, you must save this person, she is yours..." Mo Qiuyi ignored the stone and continued to lower her voice to the eldest princess.
After saying this, he couldn't help but scream in pain, his body was pushed to one side by the rocks, and he almost fell down.
Qing'er's stones!
Seeing her beloved granddaughter coming over, Princess Ruian showed a kind smile on her face, raised her head and ignored Mo Qiuyi, not to mention half of what Mo Qiuyi said.
Mo Qiuyi secretly screamed. Even if she wanted to whisper the truth to Princess Ruian at this time, she couldn't. She could only glare at Shao Wanru bitterly. She was the one who ruined her good deeds again!
"Grandma, do you want you to help take someone down the mountain?" Shao Wanru walked over in three steps and said softly.
"It sounds pitiful!" Princess Ruian reached out and touched Shao Wanru's head, and found that it was still a little wet. She hurriedly said, "What are you doing out here? It's been raining today. If you get wet, It’s easy to get sick!”
"I came to pick up my grandmother. She also begged me just now, asking me to tell you about this and to take her down the mountain. I see that there are many things going on in Yuhui Temple, and I didn't know what happened before. I was afraid of causing trouble to my grandmother, so I asked her to wait. After a few days, I tried to find a way to help her fellow countryman, but unexpectedly, this girl Mo got angry, scolded me, and came to stop my grandmother myself!"
Shao Wanru glanced at Mo Qiuyi who was standing beside him with his head down and said calmly.
Once again, it was confirmed that there was something wrong with this woman. The moment she walked over, she could not misread it. The hatred in Mo Qiuyi's eyes almost overflowed. What had she done to make her hate her so much?
Could it be that he didn't agree to talk to her grandmother about this matter for her? If that's the case, this girl Mo is really narrow-minded. She hates others to death if they don't want to help, and she gnashes her teeth in hatred. What the hell!
Shao Wanru's words were very casual, but the eldest princess Ruian was a member of the royal family and immediately understood some of the meaning. She nodded and looked at Mo Qiuyi: "Girl, this matter is something I Can’t help!”
After finishing speaking, Mo Qiuyi turned around and left with Shao Wanru without waiting for her to raise her head.
Her granddaughter's good intentions were rewarded with a scolding. The eldest princess Ruian felt that this woman was not a good person. Moreover, something happened at Yu Hui'an, and the incident was related to the late emperor's concubines. She was one of many of the late emperor's concubines. We know each other. What we should do at this time is to avoid suspicion.
In the past, the eldest princess Ruian might have been more casual. There were some things that others wouldn't dare to do, but she really didn't necessarily dare to do them. But now that she has Shao Wanru and her brother, she naturally can't be too willful, and there are some things that she doesn't want to do. Zhishen, especially something related to the former emperor and the current emperor.
Seeing the eldest princess Ruian leaving with a large group of people, Mo Qiuyi almost gritted her teeth with hatred. She was just a little bit close, but she didn't expect that Shao Wanru would ruin things.
Looking at Shao Wanru's back bitterly, Mo Qiuyi knew that she could only think of another way to deal with this matter. She turned around and walked away in the rain. She still had one way to get out of the situation...
Back in the quiet room, Shao Wanru helped the eldest princess sit down, and then took a sip of the tea from Yu Jie.
"Grandma, what did she just say? Do you want to talk to you in private?" Shao Wanru asked curiously, putting down the tea cup in his hand. He tilted his head slightly. The pretty little girl looked a bit cute and naive. people.
The eldest princess's heart softened when she saw it, and she said nonchalantly: "She said it was something about her fellow countryman, and she wanted to save me and help her. She also said that I would not regret it. Later, she saw that I didn't agree with it and said... Tell me the identity of her fellow countryman."
"Who is her fellow countryman?" Shao Wanru's heart tightened.
"I don't know about this. She didn't say anything later, and I don't know her identity. Could it be that a young lady from some family in Beijing ran away from marriage? I didn't hear that the young lady from that family wanted to marry a seventy-year-old because her family didn't like it. of!"
The eldest princess Ruian found it funny. When she talked about this, she was still puzzled as to how the woman found her head.
Seeing her kneeling in the mud, I did feel sympathy for her for a moment and wanted to agree to her impulsively.
After being reminded like this by my granddaughter, I also knew that this was inappropriate, especially at this juncture. If something happens to the late emperor's concubine, the only person I have to guard against is someone of royal blood like myself!
It would be unwise to find out anything if I bumped into him at this time.
It is better to do less than to do more. The Zhuo Zhuo siblings are still young. Without their own support, they may be bullied. On this point, the eldest princess feels that she needs to be cautious in the future.
"Grandma, is there anything to cause trouble among the late emperor's concubines? Aren't they all childless concubines?" Shao Wanru turned the tea cup in front of him, blinked his smart eyes, and looked more and more curious. There was only a hint of darkness in her eyes, and she always felt that there was something going on here!
But it was impossible to catch it for a while. Only my grandmother, who seemed to know a lot of inside information, might know something.
"I don't know what they are making a fuss about. They are just childless concubines. It is unlikely that the late emperor had a posthumous son!" The eldest princess shook her head casually. She really didn't understand who else was paying attention to that group of people. Locked up woman.
The only heir of the late emperor was Chu Liuchen, and Chu Liuchen still looked so sick and weak. Even if someone wanted to take advantage of him, he wouldn't be able to do anything!
"Grandma, is it true that the late emperor only has the same bloodline as His Highness King Chen?" Shao Wanru's face didn't show anything, but his heart moved slightly.
"Of course he is the only one. Where are the others? The late emperor cannot have other bloodlines. So what if those concubines are rescued!" Princess Ruian sneered. The one she will stand for now is the royal family. As a princess, she does not feel ridiculed by the secret plots of some people.
Shao Wanru was silent for a while, but his watery eyes narrowed tightly. There was such a person in the previous life. I don't know if he was really the blood of the late emperor. He just said that, but there was no formal recognition.
If there really was a posthumous son, why didn't he get the emperor's approval? But if not, what was the reason for treating him so kindly at that time?
Shao Wanru only regretted that he died early and didn't understand many things at all. Coupled with his lack of memory, many things were half-understood and foggy!
"Miss, Duke Xingguo has sent someone here again." Qing'er reported from the corridor.
