Xu Lingshu clenched her fists, with tears in her eyes, and quickly turned around and returned to her room.
Once in the room, she desperately threw herself on the bed and cried loudly. The maid next to her quickly stepped forward to comfort her.
She is not young anymore, and everyone in the house calls her Jin Niang.
Jin Niang stretched out her hand to caress her back and whispered: "Madam, why bother? You also know that the Crown Prince has always been like this. He is always like a white-eyed wolf if other people's children are not well-raised."
Xu Lingshu looked up at her, with tears in her eyes, and sneered: "You think I don't understand this truth? That's why I treat him with all my heart and love him as a son. I thought a three-year-old baby wouldn't I remember things, but I don’t want him to only have his mother in his heart, what’s so good about that Huarou!”
"My cousin has been keeping her in mind all day long and loves her like a treasure. But her origins are always unknown, but my cousin never cares. He just wanted to give her the title of a princess. But I think I made the original decision That's right. If I hadn't struck first, I might have had the child in her belly again, and I would have lost the chance to get close to my cousin..."
As she spoke, her teeth clenched together.
Xu Lingshu and Ji Wuhen had been childhood sweethearts since childhood. They had reached the age when the two families were preparing to discuss marriage. At that time, Ji Wuhen was still the prince of Zhennan. When he was out, he was attacked by an assassin and fell to the bottom of a cliff. His life was in danger and he was killed by a man named Huarou. The walking doctor saved him.
Ji Wuhen and Hua Rou also fell in love at that time and became husband and wife. In order to be responsible for her, Ji Wuhen took her into the palace.
Her arrival brought an end to the fate between Xu Lingshu and Ji Wuhen. Ji Wuhen was attracted to Hua Rou like crazy, even though she had a big belly, he still had a lot of affection for her. Later, Hua Rou gave birth to Ji Wenzhan, and the relationship between the two took a step forward, but no one knew Hua Rou's true identity. For this reason, Ji Wuhen could not give her a formal identity, but told the outside world that she was his wife.
Xu Lingshu was determined not to give up. She did not believe that a woman she had only known for a few months would take away her cousin whom she had known for nearly twenty years. She excused herself to move into the palace and began to fight with Hua Rou. Gradually, she discovered that Hua Rou's character was as delicate as her name. She started to mingle with Hua Rou, making her lose her guard.
When Hua Rou became pregnant again, she designed to make Hua Rou lose her memory and send her away from Nanzhou. Before that, she had learned to imitate Hua Rou's handwriting and left a farewell letter to Ji Wuhen in her tone.
After Hua Rou left, Ji Wuhen aged ten years overnight. Ji Wenzhan, who was only three years old, cried all day long looking for his mother. When father and son were at their most vulnerable, she took the initiative to take on all the important responsibilities of the palace and kept the palace in order.
But no matter what she did, Ji Wuhen still missed Hua Rou and Ji Wenzhan in his heart, and they would always treat him with a cold face. She could tolerate it at first, but now she feels more and more that she is being taken advantage of, and that everything she does is just making wedding clothes for others.
Xu Lingshu stretched out her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, turned to look at Jin Niang, "Jin Niang, how many years have you been following me?"
Jin Niang answered without thinking, "Twenty-eight years and four months."
Xu Lingshu nodded and sighed, "I'm tired and want to take a nap."
Jinniang also shed tears, "Go home when you are tired, girl, the master and his wife are still waiting for you."
Xu Lingshu smiled bitterly, "Go home? Why should I go home now? You have been with me for twenty-eight years and four months, but you have lived in Zhennan Palace for twenty-two years. I have had no status for more than twenty years. I'm not willing to serve my cousin, even if I don't even get a concubine, I'm not willing to accept it, Jin Niang..."
She cried as she spoke, and Jin Niang immediately hugged her and cried with her.
…
In the evening, Ji Wenzhan rode a tall horse, leading the palace guards, followed by three carriages, and stopped in front of Zhennan Palace.
As soon as he saw his son coming back, Ji Wuhen, who had been waiting in front of the palace for a long time, quickly stepped forward to greet him.
The first one to come out of the carriage was Mo Zeshen. His injuries were almost healed and his complexion was much better. Just when he saw Ji Wuhen, he remembered the scene of Lu Qingtang being held by him, so his face became extremely gloomy.
Ji Wuhen also understood in his heart that even if Lu Qingtang was an abandoned wife, she was once Mo Zeshen's woman and no one else could touch her, even if he was the leader of Nanzhou.
But it was indeed a misunderstanding, and I can't explain it clearly now. In the final analysis, it was still his fault, so I had to be more respectful.
Mo Ze got out of the carriage and took out Mo Mo. Mo Mo clung to his body like a pendant. Compared to several children, he also liked Mo Mo the most, so he was very tolerant of her and didn't mind her willfulness at all.
Ji Wuhen made a gesture of invitation, "Prince Chen, please."
Mo Zeshen was not polite and walked straight into the main entrance of the palace with Mo Mo in his arms.
Ji Wenzhan also dismounted and came to the second carriage. He first reached out to help Lu Qingtang get off the carriage, and then hugged Mo Bao affectionately.
He lowered his head and kissed Mo Bao, "Do you miss your uncle?"
Mo Bao nodded, "Uncle Ji is the best, Mo Bao likes Uncle Ji the most!"
Ji Wenzhan burst out laughing, "Since Mo Bao likes his uncle the most, why not stay at his house for a while and spend more time with him?"
"Okay!" Mo Bao shouted crisply.
Ji Wenzhan kissed Mo Bao again, and then said to Lu Qingtang on the side: "I will take Mo Bao in to eat delicious food first."
Lu Qingtang nodded, and then watched Ji Wenzhan holding Mo Bao and running quickly towards the gate of the palace, Mo Bao was so amused that he giggled with joy.
Kou Dan and Su Mu behind him also started laughing. Su Mu handed Mo Yue to Lu Qingtang and said with a smile, "Look, Madam, the Crown Prince has a good rapport with our Mo Bao."
Mo Yue touched her head, her milky voice was very serious, "I also have a round head."
As soon as he finished speaking, bursts of hearty laughter came from around him, "Hahahaha..."
Lu Qingtang walked into the gate of the palace with Mo Bao in his arms amidst laughter.
As soon as she entered the gate, she saw a graceful woman about forty years old. However, if she was a woman, there was no trace of having given birth to a child on her body. But that's not the point. The point is that she is looking at herself weirdly.
Her eyes changed from surprise to horror, and then from horror to fear, including the maid next to her, who also had the same look.
Lu Qingtang looked at her strangely. Just when he was about to speak to them, the two of them immediately collapsed to the ground.
She looked at the master and servant in surprise, "Hey, are you doing porcelain?"
