"My dear girl, you really want to know, so it's okay to tell you." Hearing this, Rong Shuihe quickly changed into his pajamas, turned around and walked to the bedside, hugged his wife and kissed her, smiling and saying, "The reason why I won't tell you is because I'm afraid you won't be able to help but feel sorry for me after hearing this... You see, your sleeping brother is so gentle and considerate, thinking about you!"
Sheng Weiqiao glanced at him sideways, and said without a smile: "You have lied to me so many times, and when did you make up a story that was not tear-jerking? I have heard it so many times that I have long been used to it! What else should I feel sorry for!" "
Rong Suihe touched his chin and looked at her with a mischievous smile: "Nature is easy to change but hard to change... My dear girl, what kind of nature do you have? I don't know yet?"
Seeing Sheng Weiqiao's face full of confidence, he joked a few more words, and then said, "Actually, when I said I had lost my memory before, it wasn't a complete lie... because I really can't remember the details of the earlier things. It's profound. Just a few pieces before and after?”
"When we were on Tortoiseshell Island before, my father didn't tell you about my origin. Instead, my father was borrowed to give birth to a son. After my biological mother and adoptive father became biological, they sent me to a house in another courtyard."
"Later, the wet nurse who raised me saw that I had good qualifications, so she reported it to my parents at that time, hoping to get better treatment for me?"
"But I didn't expect that my adoptive father didn't treat me as his own flesh and blood. After knowing this, he was afraid that I would take possession of his biological son's things when I grew up, so he killed me?"
Sheng Weiqiao said suspiciously: "Don't say that these are all true... This was obviously made up by my father to deceive me!"
"Of course it is a lie to borrow seeds to have children, but most of the other experiences are true. Well, this statement was actually made by me as a consultant to my father." Rong Suihe said calmly, "It is said that I landed in the palace, but it's almost the same. As soon as I landed, I was sent to Zhuangzi outside the city to "recuperate". My earliest memory is that the princess went to Zhuangzi to see me and finally left alone. At that time, I didn't really understand the difference between a biological mother and a wet nurse, but Instinctively, I didn’t want to be separated from her. There was a scene where she was walking quickly in front, and I was chasing behind her, crying, trying to grab the hem of her skirt.”
"I passed through seemingly countless corridors and doorways, and rolled and climbed past many thresholds."
"I finally grabbed her when she got into the car, but she took my hand away and pushed me away."
"It must have been my wet nurse or another servant who carried me back to the yard."
He was very calm when he said this, and Sheng Weiqiao, who was nestled in his arms, couldn't even feel any mood swings in her husband.
But my heart felt sour for no reason.
"After about a year or two, I still haven't seen anyone from the palace."
"My wet nurse's family was in a good situation in her early years. Later, something went wrong at home and she was sold into slavery, so she knew some writing. In addition to taking care of me at that time, she was also responsible for supervising the accounts of Zhuangzi and other trivial matters. Then every time She always held me by her side when she was doing things. After a few times, I remembered a few words. One time, she accidentally read them out and she found them very interesting and started teaching me."
"After teaching for a while, she felt that my talent was not bad, so she reported it to the palace. As for the purpose, it is similar to what dad told you at the time. She wanted the palace to take me seriously."
Rong Suihe said calmly, "Who would have known that after the news came back to the palace, what was waiting for me would not be taken seriously, but a carefully planned conspiracy... I was not abducted by human traffickers, but sold by the people of the palace personally!"
Sheng Weiqiao's eyes widened: "King Gaomi?!"
Because she was dissatisfied with King Gaomi, she always called her father-in-law by his royal title in private. She would only call him "Father" when she still knew him in the palace.
At this moment, he directly calls him "King Gaomi", which shows how disgusted he is with this father-in-law!
"That's not true." Rong Suihe smiled and said, "My dear girl, have you forgotten Rong Qingzui who lives in the Zhao Mansion, and Princess Huihe who married far away? Do you know why they are obviously legitimate children, but Abandoned?"
"... But how old were they at that time?" Sheng Weiqiao had not doubted these two siblings before. After all, they were both legitimate children. No matter how partial the parents were, they would not be so indifferent to them as if they were enemies. However, Thinking about the age of these two people when Rong Suihe was living outside, I always felt that the possibility was unlikely, and thought that there might be something else going on.
At this moment, seeing Rong Suihe confirm it himself, he couldn't help but be surprised, "They can actually do such a thing?!"
Rong Suihe said calmly: "Of course there is a real culprit behind this, but Rong Qingzui voluntarily cooperated with the real culprit. As for Huihe, my good sister-in-law, she only agreed to her tricks because of Rong Qingzui. Toy, he happily agreed to trick me into a remote place..."
When he said this, his eyes turned cold, and he smiled to himself, "I was too young at that time, and I don't know why I was placed alone in Zhuangzi. Anyway, I am still very attached to my parents, especially the princess." . They took people to Zhuangzi and said that they had been ordered by the princess to take me to play at the Lantern Festival and finally went to see the princess. My wet nurse was actually a little confused at the time, but I happily agreed!"
"Afterwards, when we arrived at the lantern festival, there were guards and wet nurses to take care of us."
"In the end, Huihe pulled me and asked me to accompany her to hide and seek in a crowded place... At that time, I devoted myself to pleasing them so that they would not take me to see the princess."
"So I was taken to a corner unknowingly. When I saw two people approaching, I felt something was wrong. I just wanted to take Huihe to find the guards..."
"Huihe pulled me and shouted to them, 'It's him'. Before I realized it, I was caught."
"Then he was taken all the way out to sea."
"Fortunately, I encountered a shipwreck. Everyone else died, but I was saved by my elder brother and survived."
"...Who is the real murderer?" Sheng Weiqiao frowned, "Concubine Mo? And other concubines of King Gaomi?!"
Otherwise, why would Princess Gaomi play the "epidemic" trick and send everyone down afterwards
"The princess is the wife of the Ming Matchmaker after all. Although Concubine Mo was favored at the time, how could she want to play such tricks under her hands?" Rong Suihe shook his head and said, "It's Concubine Mo!"
Sheng Weiqiao's eyes widened: "Toffee Mo?! Isn't that your grandmother?!"
Speaking of which, the reason why Huan Yehe was sure that Rong Suihe was related to the Gaomi Palace was because Rong Suihe looked exactly like Concubine Mo!
Although not everyone particularly prefers a descendant who looks similar to themselves, as a direct grandson, there is no reason for his grandmother to resent him to the point of planning to sell him to human traffickers, right
After a change of thought, she asked, "Did the princess offend the dowager on something at that time, so that the dowager took it out on you?"
But think about another question, "By the way, why were you sent to live in Zhuangzi as a child?! Rumors in Chang'an say that you were weak and sick when you were a child and needed to rest, so you almost never appeared in front of others. But you If he was really frail and sick, how did he survive on Tortoiseshell Island?!"
Hearing this, Rong Suihe narrowed his eyes and said, "My dear girl, I remember you said this accidentally when my mother told you my birthday for the first time. Why don't you understand it now?"
"Have I ever said it?" Sheng Weiqiao was stunned for a moment, thought carefully for a while, and blurted out, "Your birthday...the tenth day of October. I said this is similar to the Tianning Festival of a previous emperor, but that's because that emperor actually Born on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, it is said that the children born on this day in ancient times coincide with the male father and the female mother... Could it be that just because of this, the concubine is going to do this to you?!"
"Isn't this enough?" Rong Suihe asked, "The concubine is the only son of King Gaomi. Everyone knows that before the death of the late emperor, he actually wanted the king of Gaomi to succeed him! If the king of Gaomi is gone, the concubine has no choice but to take it. Following in the footsteps of Imperial Concubine Bu Rou! Although I am her direct grandson, she already had two direct grandchildren, two direct granddaughters, and a bunch of concubine grandchildren... Why should she care about me so much? "
He said lightly, "And when I landed, King Gaomi happened to have a minor illness, which scared everyone around him half to death. After hearing the news, the princess felt more and more what the ancients said It makes sense, I wanted the princess to hand me over to her at that time."
"It's just that the princess probably still had some mother-child affection for me. Secondly, she didn't have a good relationship with Concubine Mo at the time, and she was unwilling to give in to the concubine who favored Concubine Mo. Anyway, the concubine saw that she had been refusing to agree, so she couldn't bear it. After a few years, I didn’t want to endure it anymore, so I planned this matter through Concubine Mo and remote control control... Of course, these are what I know."
"I was too young at that time, so I'm not sure if there were any inside stories that I didn't know about."
Rong Suihe looked at his gloomy wife, smiled and touched her head, "Good girl, how are you? I told you that you feel sorry for me, right?"
"Who feels sorry for you?" Sheng Weiqiao looked unhappy and said stiffly, "I just think the princess is too disappointing! Since she is the royal concubine, there is no one in her family. To put it bluntly, back then, Didn’t the late emperor point out the princess to King Gaomi because he was interested in the lintel of the Zhao family?!"
"It's not like the princess can't be stubborn in this situation!"
"In the past ten years or so, since you have been living abroad, has Princess Mo killed Concubine Mo and others, and left Concubine Mo alone for these years?!"
"She actually let the aunt and nephew play with each other... They said she was useless, and then the 'epidemic' wiped them all out again!"
"You say she is capable, but you actually let you... I don't know what to think of this mother-in-law?"
Rong Suihe laughed when he heard this and said: "Actually, I can't blame her for being useless, but because at that time, Concubine Mo hadn't explicitly proposed to deal with me for several years, so she relaxed her vigilance. Especially in On the eve of Mo's aunt and nephew's attack, the concubine asked the concubine to hint that King Gaomi's concubines and concubines were causing trouble. She also asked Huihe to pretend to be sick repeatedly, which made the princess exhausted, so she failed to respond in time and called The person who kidnapped me fled!"
"Then our cheap grandmother, Mrs. Qin, felt that my presence would greatly affect the relationship between the princess and King Gaomi. Anyway, the princess had no shortage of biological sons at that time, so she simply let the concubine and concubine I got my wish, and just used this reason to arouse the guilt of King Gaomi, and gain the upper hand... So the Zhao family was entrusted by the princess to trace the clues, and under the orders of Mrs. Qin, they deliberately released the water and let the ship carrying me out to sea! "
"When the princess came to her senses, she got the news that there was an accident on the ship and no one survived."
He said calmly, "It is said that in addition to causing the 'epidemic' incident, the princess did not have contact with Mrs. Qin for many years, which is related to this matter."
"... In this case, why do I feel that the princess is pitiful?" Sheng Weiqiao pondered for a while and said carefully, "Of course, as a biological mother, she did not protect you well back then..."
Rong Suihe shook his head and said, "Since I thought she was helpless at the time, I naturally wouldn't blame her for this."
"Then He'er, why are you blaming me?!" Rong Suihe's answer was passed to Princess Gaomi a few days later through Aunt Zhao who came to beg for help.
When the princess heard the news, she had mixed feelings in her heart and asked subconsciously, "Since he doesn't blame me for not fulfilling my responsibility as a biological mother, why should he be so cold and indifferent to me?"
"Still, although he doesn't blame me, he doesn't want to have anything to do with me anymore?"
