Chapter 183 Princess Yongle
Old Master Zeng didn't quite agree at first. He felt that Cheng Rui attached too much importance to power. But Qian'er insisted on marrying Cheng Rui, so he could only ask Cheng Rui to swear that he would not take a concubine in this life, hoping that Qian'er would not be bullied in this life.
Unfortunately, Old Master Zeng couldn't see this. Cheng Rui still didn't keep the oath he asked him to take. He broke his promise and became a hypocrite for power.
Qian'er suffered a lot from Madam Zeng's distorted education. Fortunately, Shangguan Yue and Chen Bianbian rescued her from the shackles, otherwise, with Qian'er's original thoughts, she might have lost her mind long ago.
After learning about Qian'er's past and the life experience of Qian'er's mother, and now that Qian'er's mother, Old Madam Zeng, and Old Master Zeng are all dead, Shangguan Yue came up with an idea.
This fictitious Princess Yong'an was assigned to Qian'er's mother. In this way, Qian'er became a princess who was exiled to another place and was now named the eldest princess by the new emperor.
Not only does Qian'er not have to die, she also has to be carefully protected, and Princess Changping can't harm her anymore. What will happen to Cheng Rui? What will the expressions of the children who are trying their best to enter the Imperial College and marry the prince be?
Shangguan Yue wanted to see the slapping scene very much. She whispered a few words in Xiaobai's ear.
Xiaobai understood what he meant. He glanced at the eunuch's face, which was still very handsome despite his dressing up, and his eyes were filled with a gentle smile.
"Your Majesty, I just received news that the man who married Princess Yong'an was the retired former Minister of Personnel, Mr. Zeng."
"What? It's him!"
The old emperor stood up suddenly. He had heard that the wife of Zeng Pan, the old minister, was indeed an orphan. His father admired Zeng Pan very much and wanted to make him a son-in-law.
But Zeng Pan was unwilling to do so and only wanted to marry Liu. The emperor's father saw that Zeng Pan was a man of loyalty and righteousness, and happily granted the marriage between Zeng Pan and Liu. It is said that Madam Zeng was so happy that she fell ill.
I didn’t expect that this Liu was actually Princess Yong’an. Unfortunately, Princess Yong’an has passed away, so this connection with the Zi Yan Kingdom is gone. However, even though Princess Yong’an is gone, Princess Yongyuan still has descendants!
Zeng Zhongkai was already the Minister of Justice, so it wasn't like he was mistreating the princess' descendants. Oh, Princess Yong'an also had a daughter. Who did she marry?
Yes, she married that Cheng Rui. No, I missed something important. This Cheng Rui’s name sounds so familiar. Isn’t this the person Changping is going to marry in two days?
In the early autumn, the old emperor was sweating. Cheng Rui's original wife was the daughter of Princess Yong'an, and he even gave Changping to her as his concubine...
No, no, no, Cheng Ruinas gave Zeng Qianer a divorce letter. He was asking for trouble! He was really asking for trouble!
The wedding in the next two days will not only be a joke, but will also offend the Zi Yan Kingdom. What should we do now?
"Your Majesty, I know that Princess Yong'an is no longer alive, but the two children she left behind, one works in the Ministry of Justice, and the other has married someone else. But why is the princess of my Ziyan country who married someone else imprisoned?"
"This is a misunderstanding, absolutely a misunderstanding. I am issuing an order now to investigate it thoroughly. Someone, come! Pass on my order to dress up Princess Qian'er of Ziyan Country and bring her to the palace to reunite with her family."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty, our Holy Lord has prepared the costumes of the Purple Flame Nation, and let our people go together to dress up the eldest princess."
"The eldest princess?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, our Lord has conferred upon the princess the title of Princess Yongle. Xiao Yuezi, take your clothes and go to the prison to wait for the princess. Come back together after you are dressed up!"
"Yes, Lord Bai."
Shangguan Yue smiled at Xiaobai, blinked, and stepped back.
The cell was dark and damp, with a musty smell mixed with a lot of blood and various foul odors. Although Shangguan Yue, Zhou Huaizhi and Zeng Zhongkai had made many arrangements, they could only prevent Qian'er from suffering physical pain and from eating spoiled food.
The cell door opened, and Qian'er was seen sitting quietly on the ground, like a dead tree, motionless and lifeless. A single ray of light shone through a small window three meters high, shining on the paper on the dry grass.
Shangguan Yue bent down and picked up the paper. One corner of the paper was stained with blood. The blood-stained area where the dry grass had pierced was still not completely dry...
This didn't just pierce the paper, it pierced Qian'er's heart. Ten years of true love and hard work were only rewarded with a divorce letter. How ironic.
"Big sister, I'm here, you don't have to suffer anymore."
Shangguan Yue hugged Zeng Qianer and whispered in her ear.
Zeng Qianer stood up suddenly and was about to speak when Shangguan Yue covered her mouth.
"Someone, help Princess Yongle to take a bath and change clothes."
Shangguan Yue gave instructions to the group of people following behind.
"What Princess Yongle?"
Zeng Qianer asked curiously.
"Miss Qian'er, your mother is the exiled Princess Yong'an from Ziyan Country. Our Saint Sovereign of Ziyan Country has named you the Princess Yongle of Ziyan Country. Princess, you will have great blessings in the future! No one will bully you anymore."
Zeng Qian'er was stunned by this sudden big news.
She was pushed into a sedan chair by a group of people and swayed to take a bath and change clothes. After changing clothes, the table was filled with delicacies. More than ten maids served her food and drinks. She could be full with just one bite of food from one person.
After they finished eating and drinking, he combed and twisted her hair and put makeup on her face, making it even more grand than her wedding. He didn't say he was done until she was almost asleep from exhaustion.
Looking at the person in the mirror, it felt like a lifetime ago. Zeng Qian'er touched her face. She had never thought that one day she would be so beautiful. When she was in the boudoir, her grandmother didn't like her to dress up, so she always dressed simply.
After getting married, her husband did not like her extravagance, and she became even more frugal, often with a plain face. She used the money she earned from her dowry to manage Cheng Rui's career.
Except for the wedding day, her mother dressed her in the most beautiful wedding dress and secretly gave her extra dowry, despite her grandmother's objections. Unfortunately, her mother passed away the year after her marriage.
My mother can be said to be happy, because my father loves her very much, but she can also be said to be unhappy, because my grandmother dislikes her and despises her for being an orphan without any help from her mother's family.
I didn't expect that my mother was actually a princess of the Zi Yan Kingdom. If my mother could have been found earlier, she would not have left so early.
Would her life be different? Cheng Rui would not divorce her, Princess Changping would not frame her, and she would not be imprisoned, making her father and brother worry.
But these are just ifs, and she should be thankful because they allow her to see people's hearts clearly.
"What did you say? Impossible! This bitch can't be the princess of the Purple Flame Nation!"
In the pavilion, Princess Changping screamed and gnashed her teeth, which frightened the other women in the pavilion so much that they trembled. The palace maid who came to deliver the news was so frightened that she fell to the ground.
"Congratulations, Mr. Cheng! Double happiness!"
