"What I mean by missing is..." Wu Shudan's brows furrowed even deeper, "Don't you even know whether this child is alive or dead??"
"You should be alive, but no one knows where you are, whether your life is good or not, and what you are doing now."
"The people in the palace don't know?" Wu Shudan looked at his aunt, then turned to look at the young highness, "Anyway, this child is also the son of the princess, and can be regarded as the stepson of the old prince Wanyan. Even if he does not join the clan, he will not "Shang Jade Disk, but it's still important to care about your children. Now that the children are missing, isn't this a bit too much?"
"This..." the aunt sighed, "is not something we can control, because Wanyan and Wen warned everyone before they got married that they are not allowed to interfere in their family's affairs. If anyone dares to break the ban, don't blame him for being rude. In the first two years after their marriage, there was someone who was not afraid of death and insisted on exploring the palace's activities and asking about the whereabouts of the child. This made Wanyan and Wen angry, and taught these people a lesson, and even caused a scene. When we arrived at the palace, the late king finally spoke and stopped harassing the palace, so the situation gradually improved. However, although no one went to investigate the child's situation, rumors were flying everywhere. When they were young, The rumors were better, not that extreme. When they grew up, especially when Garut appeared next to Aoki, and the two were often inseparable, the rumors that Garut was the princess's previous child became even more common knowledge. , I have almost no intention of stopping these years.”
"Does Auntie think these rumors are groundless?"
"No." Auntie shook her head gently, "Nine times out of ten it's true."
"What's the reason?" A Piao held her cheek. She had never met Wanyan Yuwen's princess, and she had only heard about it from others. A few words could not give her a good understanding of this person's situation. "What I heard is that this princess is very popular and kind-hearted, right?"
"Yes, she is a beautiful person with a kind heart, and she is talking about this princess." His Highness nodded, "Although I have never met her, I heard my sister talk about her in detail. Even my sister is very picky and suspicious. People all admire her very much and think that she is a truly good person, and she does not ask for anything in return for her efforts. Therefore, I think such a person will never abandon her deceased husband's children and marry into the prince's palace. It was a completely unconscionable thing. After all, Wanyan and Wen were very committed and trustworthy people. He would never agree to her doing this. If the princess was the kind of person who loves vanity and clings to power, Wanyan and Wen would You won’t be so obsessed with her, and you won’t have to do it with her, right?”
"Yes." Ah Piao nodded, "I heard that their marriage was also very bumpy, right?"
"The clan members all disagree." The aunt sighed, "There is also that family making trouble here. The reason why they kicked the princess and her eldest son out of the house is because they don't want to see the mother and son live a good life, especially if they want to I want to see them tortured so much that they come back and kneel on the ground begging for shelter.”
"This family..." Ah Piao looked disgusted, "Why are you so disgusting? Does the princess have any grudge against them?"
"How should I put it?" Aunt sneered, "That family is very weird. When I first heard about how she married into that family, I was shocked. I never thought that such a practice existed. "
"I heard from my sister that we were originally engaged, right?"
"The engagement is real, but it is not with that family. The one who is engaged with the princess is a relative of that family, and is considered a cousin. But the person who was really engaged because of an accident, and the whole family is gone, and that family is like a pig. By occupying the magpie's nest, you not only occupy someone else's house, but also someone else's fiancée." Seeing the children's eyes widening, the aunt sighed, "Don't you think it's incredible?"
"This is too much!" Wu Shudan slapped his leg hard, "Don't the princess's family know?"
"They have tokens in their hands. As long as they are right, no one will doubt it. We don't even dare to think about such a thing, right? No matter how much we scheming, fighting for each other, or plotting, , but also..." Auntie thought for a moment, "Within the acceptable range, right? Their behavior completely exceeds the bottom line that normal people should have, and it is simply animal behavior."
"Indeed." Wu Shudan nodded, "Then what? Is this how the princess gets married?"
"No, there was an accident almost. I can only say that the family is cruel and cruel, worse than animals." The aunt thought for a while, "The only person in the family who has a conscience is the late husband of the princess. He thinks it is wrong to deceive people like this. Yes, so on the third or fourth day after the princess and her family came to find him, I found an opportunity to tell the princess and her family the truth."
"What's the attitude of the princess's family?"
"Of course he was furious. The princess's father even called the door and made the trouble known to everyone. Otherwise, how would we know?"
"Then why did you get married later?"
"I don't know, maybe the two families have reached some agreement! However, in the second month after getting married, news came out that the princess's family encountered horse bandits on their way back and the whole family was killed. The princess was in great pain. My son fell ill." The aunt shook her head helplessly, "That's why the family spread rumors that the princess had a tough life, saying that the princess was a traitor to her parents, relatives, and husband. It was during the time when the princess was ill. , they learned that the princess was pregnant, but the family was not looking forward to the birth of the child. Because after knowing that it was the eldest son who exposed their secret, they hated the son so much that even the eldest son and his family were very angry. dislike."
"The princess's late husband wasn't killed by his family, right?"
"Wanyan and Wen once asked my sister to investigate this suspicion, but it took too long and no evidence could be found." His Highness sighed, "We can only find other ways to punish that family. Fortunately, That family is too disorderly and has done too many bad things. If you catch them casually, they could be killed." She shrugged, "Auntie, take a sip of tea. I know a little bit about what happened next. After the child was born, The princess' late husband was not in particularly good health and had been ill on and off for more than two years, and finally passed away. After the first seven days of her late husband's life, the princess resolutely took her son and left the so-called home that made her suffer so much."
"That family is so cruel."
"It's not that he's too cruel, but he's too beastly." The aunt took two sips of tea and explained, "The princess's former mother-in-law told the princess that if she wanted to live in this family, she must marry her youngest son. , otherwise you will have to leave the house, and you cannot take away even a copper plate or a piece of cotton belonging to this family."
