The news spread that the Zhao family and Prince Li's family got the wrong child.
Everyone knew that Fan Shiyou should not be called Fan Shiyou, but Zhao Shiyou.
As for the story, it's a piece of shit.
In order to deceive others, the Zhao family and Prince Li's family showed up at Qishan Temple when the two pregnant women were about to give birth. They said they were going to worship Buddha together, but they gave birth on the mountain.
What kind of place is Qishan Temple? The terrain there is remote. Apart from the 'masters' in the temple, there are no other people around. The people who live there are all old ladies from Prince Li's Mansion. Of course, there is no way to know.
However, the story was told so convincingly that it spread in a short period of time and everyone believed it.
Fan Shiyou does indeed look more like a member of the Zhao family. Someone has mentioned it before, but not so blatantly. Now various 'evidences' have surfaced, as if they were discussed.
Zhao family. Mrs. Zhao looked at the girl in front of her with a complicated expression: "Have you made up your mind?"
Fan Shiyou covered her face and cried: "Since I am the daughter of the Zhao family, I can no longer occupy my current status as the princess. Otherwise, the name will be unfair and I will feel uneasy if I stay for a moment longer. Besides, my parents don't want their real daughter.
Cheng Huan? If you can't tolerate me, it's easy, I'll just shave my head and become my sister-in-law, so as not to upset you."
"I don't have a problem. It's rumored outside that it's feasible for you to return to the Zhao family. But have you ever thought about the prince and the princess?"
Fan Shi was silent.
"The Zhao family is just an ordinary merchant. When you return to the Zhao family, you are no longer a princess, and the person you want to marry in the future will not be a high-ranking official. Are you willing to be raised as a princess since you were a child?"
"I……"
Of course she was unwilling to do so.
However, compared with those, saving one's life is the most important thing.
"Mom, don't you want to recognize me?" Fan Shiyou looked at Mrs. Zhao, "Have you never regretted it over the years?"
"I have never regretted it." Mrs. Zhao looked at Fan Shiyou, "You are not my first daughter. You have seen the situation of your sisters before. Even if we carefully selected them, they were not married well. You want to go back to Zhao
You can go home, I believe everyone in the Zhao family welcomes you. Can you get used to this gap?"
"I don't care." Fan Shiyou said, "I want to go back to the Zhao family and my real family to recognize my ancestors."
"Okay, if this is your choice, I will tell the prince and princess." Mrs. Zhao said, "You can go back first. Then I will bring someone back to pick you up personally."
After Fan Shiyou left, Mrs. Zhao sighed softly.
The old woman next to her said, "Miss, I want to go back to Zhao's house. This is because I care about the friendship between your mother and daughter. Madam, she doesn't look happy?"
"Where do you think those rumors outside come from?"
"It can't be Miss..."
"Over the years, the princess and the prince have been very kind to her. Even if they are not their biological children, they have never treated her badly. Even if I am her biological mother, seeing her living like this, I am extremely grateful for her luck. But people's hearts are so difficult.
I tested it and found out that I have raised a white-eyed wolf after so many years."
Mrs. Zhao took a sip of tea and continued: "Although she is my biological daughter, the situation of the Zhao family is many times more complicated than that of Prince Li's palace. She returned to the Zhao family and changed from a princess to a businessman's daughter.
She doesn’t have a long-term relationship, so what kind of good life does she think she can have? She is a little smart, but it’s really chilling to use it against the people who love her."
On the way back, Fan Shiyou covered her anxious heart.
"I'm not wrong...yes, I'm not wrong. I don't want to die, what's wrong with that? I'm not the daughter of the Fan family in the first place."
What Fan Shiyou was "looking forward to" was soon accomplished.
Mrs. Zhao and Princess Li talked for an hour behind closed doors. After they came out, Princess Li took Mrs. Zhao to see Prince Li. Not long after, Mrs. Zhao brought people to Youran Courtyard and told Fan Shiyou that she could leave Li.
The palace is now.
"Just leaving like this?" Fan Shiyou asked Mrs. Zhao, "Where the prince and princess are...should I go and say goodbye?"
"The prince is unwell and it is inconvenient to see people. The princess wants to take care of the prince and says she won't see you." Mrs. Zhao said calmly, "Since you have chosen to leave, what difference does it make if you see me or not?"
"After all, they have raised me for many years, and I can't bear to leave them. Mom, I want to see them."
"The princess said that she should have given you something as a souvenir, but the situation in Prince Li's Mansion is unclear now. The things here may be added to the national treasury. If she gives them to you, it will cause you trouble. She will not see you anymore.
I won’t give anything away either.”
"Then I won't disturb the princess." Fan Shiyou's eyes flashed with disappointment.
Princess Li has a lot of good treasures in her hands. She said before that she would give those things to her as a dowry. Now that something like this has happened, I'm afraid there will be no chance.
Mrs. Zhao took Fan Shiyou back to the Zhao Mansion in a grand manner.
The fact that the Zhao family recognized Fan Shiyou was also spread among the people, and Fan Shiyou was officially renamed "Zhao Shiyou" and will soon be recorded in the Zhao family tree.
As for Jun Zimo, even if someone talks about him, someone will immediately change the topic. Someone is obviously leading the conversation.
"Prince Li is dying." Ziyuan walked into the room and said to Mu Siyu who was doing a facial mask.
"Where did you hear that?" Mu Siyu asked.
"My slave just went to the kitchen to find the cook. I heard them say that this was coming from Prince Li's Mansion, saying that several doctors quietly entered through the back door, mysteriously."
"With King Li's body, he won't be able to hold on for long, and with all the various blows, it should be almost time."
"If King Li is gone, what will happen to Licheng? What will happen to Princess Li? So many things have happened here, and the one in the palace..."
"Prince Li is gone and he has no heirs, so of course there is nothing to worry about. On the contrary, Princess Li is safe, and the entire Prince Li's palace can guarantee its most basic glory."
King Li died that night.
White lanterns were hung up in Prince Li's Mansion.
Princess Li found the loyal king Fan Yuanxi and begged him on her knees to release Zhao Zimo, hoping that he would die for Prince Li.
Prince Zhong said calmly: "Princess, if you let a person who killed the emperor's uncle die, you won't be afraid that the emperor will climb out of the coffin with his eyes open? Princess, some people are not qualified to be fathers because they are fathers. Some people are not qualified to be fathers because they are fathers."
He is a son, he is a son. Instead of expecting a black-hearted person, it is better to let me, the emperor's nephew, see him off on his last journey."
Princess Li looked haggard: "Thank you very much, Prince Zhong. Prince Zhong, our prince has something to leave for you..."
In the prison, Zhao Zimo huddled in the corner, looking at the small window in the prison and watching a bird fly by.
"Zhao Zimo, someone is looking for you."
Zhao Zimo looked over.
I saw one person take off his mask, revealing a familiar face.
