A Precious Pearl in the Imperial City

Chapter 109: Repaying grievances with virtue, I sent him to ascend

Views:

"His Royal Highness." When Jiuzhu saw that His Highness came back, she pulled her to sit at the table with a dignified expression, and asked carefully, "Have you encountered something unhappy?"

"I'm a little unhappy." King Chen sighed: "You said, what would you do if someone pretended to be my old me and said it was your benefactor?"

"I definitely won't believe it." Jiu Zhu replied without thinking, "The queen mother is so beautiful, just take a look at her, and it is impossible to forget her beauty in a lifetime."

"I was pretty good-looking back then, did you recognize me when we first met?" King Chen was a little sour.

"Eighteen changes in men's college." Jiu Zhu guiltily looked away, not looking at King Chen: "There is still a difference between adults and children, but I thought you were a little familiar at the time."

"How much is a little bit?" King Chen raised his eyebrows and pointed at his face.

Jiuzhu smiled and kissed where he pointed: "So many."

King Chen glanced at the length of her ratio, okay, it was more than the funeral money paid to "General Cricket".

"If there is no mother-in-law, only me? What would you do if someone pretended to be?"

"I don't believe it." Jiuzhu shook her head seriously: "No one else would know about how I was rescued back then. Every word or action could be exposed. If there is a fool who dares to impersonate..."

"how?"

"I'll send him to fly."

"Isn't that a coincidence? In the past few days, someone just happened to be impersonating you."

"Huh?" Jiuzhu blinked: "So you went out early this morning to do this?"

"Speaking of which, Hulongwei also found something interesting." King Chen said: "The person who pretended to be you, also named Ming, is from the Ming family in Lingzhou. Eleven years ago, he stayed at your house for a while. some time."

Jiuzhu's expression was complicated: "It turned out to be her..."

"Father-in-law and mother-in-law mentioned to you what happened back then?" Seeing that her expression was not right, King Chen thought that Jiuzhu was unhappy, so he quickly comforted her: "Father-in-law and mother-in-law just picked her up for a small stay, in their hearts, your daughter must be the most important. "

"Yeah." Jiuzhu nodded: "In two days, I'll go back and tell my mother about it."

If she didn't treat her like a pearl and love her like her life, how could the mother just rely on her intuition to find out that the little girl was a fake replacement

This woman pretended to be her twice in a row, doesn't she have a life of her own

Ming Jisi and Ming Zhenyu were very flustered in their hearts, their father lost power, and they were afraid of the Ming family's revenge. For the next few days, they stayed in the courtyard and did not dare to go out.

After waiting for a few days, none of the powerful Ming family came to the door, and they dared to go out only after they gradually settled down in their hearts.

When I inquired outside, I just mentioned the daughter of the Ming family, and the people on the streets and alleys suddenly talked endlessly.

"Master Ming's daughter, you know, the charming lady of the domineering prince's family."

"Hey, isn't it the apex of the overbearing prince?"

"You are all talking nonsense, it is clearly a fairy who came down to earth, and is destined for three lives with Xianjun."

Ming Zhenyu was dazed by hearing this. Are these people in the capital having some abnormal brains

"Girl, if you are interested, you can go to the teahouse and sit and listen. That's a wonderful thing."

Although Ming Zhenyu felt that these people were not very smart, she still went to the teahouse they said.

Why is the refreshment so expensive here, is it made of gold? She glanced at the wealthy daughters in silk and satin, suppressed her reluctance, and ordered the cheapest tea and snacks.

The life of the family has become more and more difficult in recent years. It is said that in the past, the three brothers of the Ming family sent people to send money to the clan every year to encourage the children of the family to study. Later, the three brothers separated from the family, and the three brothers took back all the land they bought for the clan, and then distributed it to the local county government and the poor people.

It is precisely because of this that no one says that the three brothers are not, but countless people praise them for their noble character and kindheartedness.

In the past ten years, only the elder brother of the family has passed the examination as a scholar, and the other juniors are not qualified. The Ming family, which was once prominent in Lingzhou, has fallen.

It's not that the clan elder didn't try to ease the relationship with the three brothers, but they were determined not to interact with them anymore.

After listening to the domineering prince and Miss Qiao in the teahouse, Ming Zhenyu's mind was a little dazed. Now, the love for three generations is no longer popular, but the love for a hundred generations

The phenomenon of comparison is becoming more and more serious, and even the plot of the story is not exempt.

Unexpectedly, the Ming family not only found their daughter back, but also let her marry the most favored King Chen as the princess. If she hadn't been debunked by Shen Ying back then, wouldn't she be the princess now

However, the rules of the royal family have always been very big. How can a high-ranking prince marry a woman who has been living in the folk for more than ten years and has an unknown past experience

Could it be that the Ming family is hiding something

When she asked again, she understood. As she guessed, the Ming family claimed that Ming Jiuzhu had been fostered in a Taoist temple since she was a child because of her frail health, and took her home after a life-and-death disaster.

Thinking of this, Ming Zhenyu sneered and lived abroad for more than ten years. Who knew that Ming Jiuzhu had come into contact with some low-level stuff before entering Beijing

The Ming family must be very afraid of this incident and being known by others.

The crime of deceiving the king is to be beheaded.

Ming family.

Seeing her daughter entering the door, Shen Ying said with disgust, "I just went home a few days ago, why are you here again?"

Before she finished speaking, she already took Jiuzhu's hand: "What do you want to eat at noon, I'll make it for you, why didn't His Highness come with you?"

"His Royal Highness was called by the royal father to Taiyang Palace." Jiuzhu recited the names of several dishes and took Shen Ying's hand: "Mother, the kitchen is heavy with soot, please accompany your daughter to talk."

Seeing her daughter's expression, Shen Ying guessed that she might have something to say to herself, and sat down against her: "Today your father and brother are both on duty, it's rare for our mother to have a conversation."

The mother and daughter talked about their daily life, and Jiuzhu asked about the little girl who was sent as an impostor by the Ming family in Lingzhou eleven years ago.

"That little girl's eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to your father's. When you were just born, there was a mole on your forearm, and she also had a mole on her arm." Speaking of what Lingzhou Ming's family did back then, Shen Ying's tone was somewhat disgusting: " When she got off the carriage, the first time I saw her, I felt that she had no fate with me."

Jiuzhu held Shen Ying's hand.

"You are different. As soon as I saw you, I knew in my heart that this was my child." The disgust was replaced by warmth: "Perhaps it was the influence of blood in nature, or God couldn't bear our family to serve the country and the people. There are a lot of sacrifices, and in the end, someone will occupy the magpie's nest, so I reminded me."

Recalling the incident, Shen Ying was extremely indifferent to the Ming family in Lingzhou: "In order to ask them to promise to support you, we gave them all the valuable things on our body. Since your grandfather's generation, we can't take it every year. Going to Lingzhou for less money, we thought that they would take the money to support you and take care of you because of their relationship over the years. I never expected that they would take the money and abandon you in the wilderness. "

In the last years of Xiande, the world was in turmoil, and a child less than a month old was thrown into the wild. How many hope of surviving

Shen Ying hated the Ming family in Ji Lingzhou. If it wasn't for the fact that when His Majesty ascended the throne, he needed the help of courtiers. The couple would rather not care about the world and ruin the entire Ming family in Lingzhou.

However, without the protection of their lineage, the Ming family in Lingzhou fell within a few years, and there is no such thing as the Ming family in Lingzhou.

When people in the world mention the Ming family, they only think of the Ming family in their capital.

"Mother, I received a piece of news that the little girl who pretended to be me in Beijing back then has entered Beijing."

"She still dares to come?" Shen Ying sneered: "We didn't settle accounts with them, and they even sent them to the door."

"She came to meet her benefactor. When she was eight years old, she fell into the Huaxi River and was rescued by her benefactor."

Shen Ying was stunned for a moment, and then reacted: "She actually pretended to be you again?!"

"Mom, don't be angry, the father, queen, mother, and His Royal Highness already know about this." Jiuzhu poured a cup of tea for Shen Ying: "My daughter is now a relative of the royal family. In this year, the descendants of the Ming family in Lingzhou will not be able to participate in the imperial examinations."

Hearing this, Shen Ying was a little surprised.

The daughter has a gentle personality and is rarely angry. Even the tone of her speech has the unique gentleness of Lingzhou. It's not like she said that.

"Master said that cultivators pay attention to repaying grievances with virtue. Dacheng's laws are virtues, and if my daughter handles this matter with Dacheng's laws, it is equivalent to repaying grievances with virtue." Jiuzhu's smile was innocent and pure: "If you don't follow Dacheng's laws, you will be disobedient, and your daughter will help her. Justice, Grandpa Sanqing is on top, and he will witness his daughter's righteous deeds of accumulating virtue and doing good deeds."

Shen Ying opened her mouth and closed it silently.

A good one repays grievances with virtue, upholds justice, accumulates virtue and does good deeds.

There's nothing wrong with it.

"Princess, madam, there are visitors outside who say they are old friends and want to reminisce with madam."

Jiu Zhu looked at the steward who passed the message: "Is the visitor male or female, and how old are you?"

"Back to the princess, the person here is probably a seventeen or eighteen-year-old woman." The steward said: "She has no homage, and her origin is unknown. The old lady thought it would be better if she didn't see her."

"A woman of seventeen or eighteen years old?" Jiu Zhu and Shen Ying looked at each other and thought of a person at the same time.

"Let her come in." Jiu Zhu smiled: "I'm also curious, what kind of person is this girl who dares to pretend to be a relative of the royal family."

Stepping into the gate of Ming's house, Ming Zhenyu glanced at this house that had appeared countless times in her memory. The tall tree in my memory doesn't seem to be that thick, but the people below are still taciturn.

Before stepping into the main courtyard, she hesitated for a moment.

Back then, she just stood here, listening to Shen Ying's questioning, and never set foot in this yard again.

"Girl, please come with me." The steward who led the way called her.

"Sorry, I haven't been here for many years, I almost forgot what this place is like."

She thought that the steward would ask her when she had been here, but the steward just bowed slightly to her, and then continued to walk inside with her.

Walking into the door, she looked at Shen Ying, who was sitting high, with a happy smile on her face: "Little girl Ming Zhenyu, I have seen Mrs. Eleven years later, is Mrs. okay?"

"Ming Zhenyu?" Shen Ying took a sip from the teacup, turned her head and asked Jiuzhu, "Does our family have such a relative?"

Jiuzhu shook her head: "My daughter never heard you mention it."

The smile on Ming Zhenyu's face froze. She thought that Shen Ying would be shocked, angry, or upset when she heard her name, but she didn't react at all, instead she didn't even remember who she was.

She didn't believe that Shen Ying couldn't remember her name in front of her!

"Why do you have to pretend, Madam, the little girl called you mother back then." Ming Zhenyu looked at Ming Jiuzhu who was sitting beside Shen Ying: "It seems that when Madam found her biological daughter, she forgot my fake daughter."

"Since you know that yours is a fake, why should you come to me to be embarrassed?" Shen Ying said rudely, with a cold face: "When you were young, I asked someone to send you back to Lingzhou. Now you have grown up. , only with a broom to beat it out."

Unexpectedly, Shen Ying's words were so ugly, Ming Zhenyu couldn't hold back her anger any longer: "I dare to stand here, so I won't be afraid of your revenge."

Jiuzhu laughed out loud.

Ming Zhenyu turned to look at her: "What are you laughing at?"

"Oh, it's nothing." Jiuzhu shook her head innocently, holding a tea cup, looking extremely naive and ignorant: "Go ahead and leave me alone."

Any harsh words must be said in one go. If they are planned in the middle, their momentum will plummet.

Ming Zhenyu was annoyed by Jiuzhu's expression of "keep talking, I want to watch the fun", she held it back for a while, and threw out the purpose of coming to Ming's house today: "I know your secret."

"What secret?" Jiu Zhu couldn't help but ask, but what she asked was not Ming Zhenyu, but Shen Ying.

Shen Ying slowly shook her head: "I don't know."

Is it...

She frowned slightly. Did she know the true level of Jingzhou and Jiuzhu's painting skills

"You husband and wife are bold enough to lie to the royal family, so you won't worry that the secret will be leaked one day?" Ming Zhenyu saw Shen Ying's frown, and said triumphantly: "Bullying the king is a death penalty."

Shen Ying raised her eyes to see Ming Zhenyu, just boasted a few words about her painting skills, how could she be deceiving the king

Their Ming family did not conquer the royal family with their painting skills.

Shen Ying was silent, and Ming Zhenyu asked confidently: "Shen Ying, these years, because you drove me out of the capital, I have suffered countless scorns and ridicules. Have you ever thought about my life?"

"The culprit who made you taunted was not me, but the greedy and shameless Lingzhou Ming family." Shen Ying sneered: "Why should I care about how a liar is doing?"

"I'm a liar, what are you guys?" Ming Zhenyu pointed her finger at Jiuzhu: "You hide her origins, let her marry into the royal family to please the emperor and queen, and enjoy the glory and wealth, isn't it a lie?"

Jiuzhu hugged the teacup tightly and opened her eyes slowly: "Huh?"

her history

The Wuming Taoist Temple in Wuming Mountain in Lingzhou is indeed a bit shabby, but their family did not hide it from the royal family.

"Shen Ying, an hour later, I will wait for you at Changfengpo in the western suburbs. I hope your mother and daughter will come with sincerity." After speaking, she turned and left.

After she left, Jiuzhu was silent for a long time: "Mother, is she here to fight the autumn wind?"

And playing so confidently and imposingly, it is no wonder that he can do something like an impostor.

Ming Jisi waited for a while at the gate of Ming's house, and saw Ming Zhenyu come out: "Is it clear to their family?"

"I made an appointment with them to meet at Changfengpo in the western suburbs and talk to them at their house. I'm afraid I will suffer."

"What can I lose?" Ming Jisi lost interest when he saw that his sister didn't get any benefit: "Go to the western suburbs and wait, and come back early in the evening to cook. The old lady your benefactor invited me to cook, I can't eat it. used."

Ming Zhenyu endured it, and nodded after a while: "Okay."

Half an hour later, King Chen came to Ming's house to pick up Jiuzhu back to the palace, and heard that Jiuzhu went to Changfeng Slope in the western suburbs, and turned around to Changfeng Slope.

Changfengpo is famous for its strong wind. Jiuzhu and her mother-in-law went here to let the wind blow their faces

"Mother, it's windy outside, don't go out." Jiuzhu lifted the curtains of the car and glanced at the grass on the mountain top that was swept up and down by the wind, "Wait for her to come to us."

Seeing the Ming family carriage approaching, Ming Zhenyu quickly put on a mysterious sitting posture, waiting for Shen Ying's mother and daughter to come up. But when her back was sore, her legs hurt, and the carriage at the foot of the mountain didn't move.

What do you mean, play with her
