Mom wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and took a sip of tea at a loss. She had returned the jade plaque to Yun Ying a long time ago. Of course Cui'er knew about this, because Cui'er had taken the jade pendant from her. The master was just
She asked her to hand over the deed of betrayal to the eldest young master of the Leng family, but did not say whether to keep the jade token. Originally, she planned to keep the jade token, but when the eldest young master of the Leng family came, the master just said something. He thought that Leng
The eldest son of the family may have some connection with the master, so he handed all the things to the eldest son of the Leng family.
The master suddenly asked her to destroy the jade medal. What should she do? The young master of the Leng family has only visited Yanyu Tower twice in total. It would be almost impossible to wait for the young master of the Leng family to come to the door. So, what should she do?
?
Seeing her mother thoughtful, Cui'er naturally remembered what happened that day. Naturally, she didn't forget what happened that day so quickly. She wasn't really worried about her mother, but she was worried that it would harm herself.
She knew that her mother could not think of a solution for a while, so she said to her mother: "Mom, except for the first two times, it seems that the young master of the Leng family has never been to Yanyulou once. It is definitely not an option for us to wait like this. I don't think it would be better.
Do we take the initiative?”
"If you are too proactive, it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of the young master of the Leng family. Besides, we can't go to the Leng Mansion. Even if we go, the young master of the Leng family may not be willing to see us." Mom said.
"However, we can't guard in the Yanyu Tower. Sooner or later, the master will know." Cui'er said.
"If you don't tell the truth, how will the master know? You reminded me that the dead will never tell the truth." Her mother threatened Cui'er.
"Mom, I have been with you for so long, and you should know that Cui'er has always been tight-lipped. Mom and I are like grasshoppers on a rope, how could we tell anyone? If the master cares about that jade tablet, it means that the jade tablet must have
A secret we don’t know. Putting aside whether Yun Ying is still alive or not, the jade medal is not safe for us if it is in the hands of the eldest son of the Leng family," Cui'er said.
"Are we really required to come to find the eldest son of the Leng family? I don't need to tell you what the consequences will be if the master finds out about this?" Mom said.
"Then we just pretend we don't know anything?" Cui'er asked.
"Don't make any noise yet, I have my own sense of discretion." Mom said.
Jingxian's people have returned to Yun's house. Yun Jingxian is finally relieved when he sees that the message has arrived. He doesn't know why his aunt is so nervous. The girl has been put in prison, so there is nothing to worry about. Just based on that
What kind of trouble did a young master of the Leng family cause? His Highness Pluto? Will His Highness Pluto care about such nonsense?
Jingxian sneered and took a sip of Dahongpao. He felt that Princess Chengjun was too nervous and there was no need to worry about the girl in the prison.
What's more, even if they recognize each other, what evidence is there to prove that the girl who entered Yanyu Tower has something to do with them?
"Come here, are the pine nut cakes in the kitchen ready?" Jingxian asked.
"Master, wait a minute, I'm going to ask about the kitchen now." The girl next to me said.
"Go." Jingxian said.
After Jingxian waited for the maid to leave, he went to the desk and wrote a note and crumpled it into a ball. After the maid came in with the pastry, Jingxian took a piece and stuffed it into his mouth and said, "This pastry is really good, no wonder Auntie
If you like it, pack this plate and send it to Prince Cheng's Mansion, hand it to the princess in person, and tell her that this young master honors your aunt."
After Jingxian finished speaking, he put the note into the pastry plate.
The maid took the cakes out, found a basket, put it in, and hurried to the Chengjun Prince's Mansion.
When they arrived at the door, the gatekeeper of Chengjun Prince's Mansion thought he saw a maid from Yun Mansion, so he let her in.
"I have seen the princess." The maid said respectfully.
"Why are you here? Did your young master ask you to come here?" Princess Chengjun asked.
"The young master was worried that Princess Chengjun liked pine nut cakes, so as soon as they were ready, he ordered the servants to send them over to honor the princess," the maid said.
"I'm interested." Princess Chengjun said.
After Princess Chengjun gave the reward, the maid returned to Yun Mansion.
Princess Chengjun stared blankly at the pastries in front of her. She knew that Jingxian had always been smart, and this plate of pastries must be more than a tribute to her. It must not be simple to send this plate of pastries for no reason.
Princess Chengjun took an empty plate, picked out all the pastries, and found the note. There were a few words written on the note. The general meaning was to reassure her that the affairs of Yanyulou had been taken care of.
Princess Chengjun finally breathed a sigh of relief. After burning the note, she took a piece of cake to taste.
"Your Majesty, the young master of the Yun family just sent a plate of cakes to the princess," the housekeeper said.
"Madam went to Yun's house just now. Not long after she came back, Jingxian gave Madam a plate of cakes. This child is really filial," the prince said.
The prince already had doubts about the princess. Originally, he did not believe the evidence that Princess Hades gave him. Later, after investigation, all the evidence confirmed this fact. In other words, the lady, who has always been gentle and kind, not only lied, but even harmed him.
's daughter.
"Your Majesty?" The butler asked cautiously when he saw that the Prince looked scary.
"I'm fine, please go out." The prince said.
Three more days passed, and Prince Cheng still did nothing because his people had not returned yet. Once his people came back, the matter would come to light. At that time, he still had some doubts and wanted to ask his mother,
Another day later, the man in black entered Prince Cheng's mansion and stayed with Prince Cheng in the study for a full hour. Prince Cheng came out of the study and went to the old lady's yard.
"Mother." Prince Cheng said.
"Why are you here at this time?" the old lady asked.
"Mother, I have something to ask you." Prince Cheng asked.
"What do you want to ask? Why are you still so mysterious?" the old lady asked.
"Mom, after I came back from outside, I couldn't get sick. Is it related to my mother?" Prince Cheng asked.
"More than ten years have passed, why did you suddenly ask your mother about this? His Majesty offered you a marriage, but you refused without hesitation. As soon as you came back, you were haunted. Mother looked distressed, so she naturally hoped that you would get better soon.
"Now that more than ten years have passed, you will be secretly happy that your mother has brought you such a daughter-in-law. Where can you find such a virtuous and virtuous wife?" the old lady said with a smile.
However, when the old lady saw that Prince Cheng had been unhappy since he came in, she said, "What's wrong? Could it be that the husband and wife are at odds?"
"Mother, do you know that this virtuous and virtuous daughter-in-law who respects her parents-in-law has brought the blood of the Cheng family to Yanyu Tower?" Prince Cheng said.
"What's the bloodline of the Cheng family? What's going on? Why can't I understand?" the old lady asked.
"Mother, your Majesty offered you a marriage. The reason why I refused was because my son was seriously injured and was saved by a woman. Because we have been in love for a long time, I went to see her in private and got married. If it weren't for her kindness, you might have met her.
I didn’t have a son. Of course, I didn’t marry her to repay a favor. She didn’t marry me for money, because she didn’t know who I was and just thought I was an ordinary soldier. Soon, she became pregnant.
, the people around me happened to find me, and I heard that you were seriously ill, so I hurried back. At that time, I wanted to take her back to see you, but who knew that she was afraid that I would waste my time, so she asked me to go back to see you quickly.
I originally planned to take her back to the palace after you recovered, but I didn't expect that Your Majesty would send me troops to suppress those foreigners. After I came back, I went to the place where we had been and found that she had already left there with her child."
Prince Cheng said.
"Maybe she didn't want to wait any longer, so she might have moved away. Now, I'm afraid she would have remarried a long time ago, right?" the old lady said.
"Mother, she gave birth to the child back then, but I hadn't gone back yet. She went to the capital alone. I happened to return to the capital that day, and because she knew my identity, she took the child and left her hometown. I know about this.
I told my wife, I thought she would really feel sorry for me and support me in finding their mother and daughter. Who knew that she was just giving me snacks on the surface, but secretly she had arranged people in advance and teamed up with outsiders to deceive me and the people I sent to investigate.
She found the mother and daughter early in the morning and arranged for someone to follow them. Later she became seriously ill and was bedridden. After her death, the child came to the capital alone and wanted to see me. But she was sent to the Yanyu Tower by this femme fatale woman. Fortunately, she
You are smart enough, otherwise you would have lost your innocence a long time ago." Prince Cheng almost shouted in anger at the end of his words.
The old lady had never seen her son so angry, speaking to herself with scarlet eyes.
Did she do something wrong back then and shouldn't have made her own decision? However, she didn't believe that her daughter-in-law would do this. How could this be possible?
"Have you misunderstood? How could she be that kind of person?" the old lady said.
"Mother, you have always been shrewd. She has even deceived you. Now you would rather believe her than me. I have investigated these things again and I will not tell them if there is no evidence. Mother, can you
You know, that girl was caught by the government and almost sentenced to death?" Prince Cheng said.
"You mean that the woman left you a child, and your wife has always known that, because she was worried that the child would come to the palace to recognize her relatives, she was sent to Yanyu Tower?" The old lady asked. "That's right.
This time, because of the help of His Highness Pluto and Princess Pluto, I will know these things. Otherwise, I will be confused for the rest of my life." Prince Cheng said.
After all, that girl is also a bloodline of the Cheng family, how could the daughter-in-law do this? The old lady was naturally unhappy after hearing this. When she married the old prince, she was not a woman from an official family, the old prince was just
Only if she likes herself will she marry herself. At that time, she just hoped that her son would cheer up as soon as possible. Who knew that things would turn out like this.
If the child is really of the Cheng family, let her recognize her ancestors as soon as possible. How can she let this child live outside? What's more, the madam is narrow-minded and malicious and sent the child to Yanyu Tower.
"Son, my mother made a mistake. I didn't expect that things would turn out like this. I confused you at the beginning and asked His Majesty for marriage again because I was worried that you would remain depressed. I thought that if you got married, you wouldn't be like this.
I'm depressed. If you married a wife outside, why didn't you tell me?" the old lady said regretfully.
"Mother, the matter has passed, don't mention it again. My son now wants to take his daughter back to recognize his ancestors, and he also wants to bring her back to see you. I wonder if you are willing?" Prince Cheng asked
