On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Yan Ruyu entered the room, and Huo Changhe came over and led her to the eldest lady.

"Mother, please tell me in detail, where have you seen this pattern?"

"This is the pattern of the jade pendant worn by the emperor before he ascended the throne," the eldest lady said. "After each prince is born, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will prepare a piece of jade pendant. The patterns on each piece are different, but they were all determined by the late emperor himself. . When the emperor was still a prince, he often wore a jade pendant on his body, which was a symbol of status."

"However, since the emperor ascended the throne, he has changed to a dragon-patterned pendant. This jade pendant will no longer be worn. It should be properly sealed and kept."

The eldest lady was surprised: "Where did this pattern come from? You didn't exist at that time, so you probably haven't seen it."

Huo Changhe and Yan Ruyu quickly looked at each other, with shock flashing in their eyes.

Seeing that their expressions were different, the eldest lady lowered her voice and urged: "What's going on? Tell me quickly! Don't hide it from me. If there is a big event, I will share it with you."

Yan Ruyu saw that she was thinking something wrong, and not telling her would only increase her worries, so she simply stopped hiding it.

"My mother doesn't know, but I cut this pattern on a piece of jade pendant. The prince only said it looked familiar and recognized that the tassels underneath were unusual, so I cut it and looked for an opportunity to confirm it again."

"Jade pendant? Where is the jade pendant?"

"In the secret compartment of the main room of Yongchang County." After Yan Ruyu said this, the eldest lady's pupils dilated slightly.

I didn't speak for a long time.

Huo Changhe said: "No wonder it looks familiar to me. It seems that when I was a child, I was playful and naughty. I secretly went to a house and seemed to have seen it there. I remember hearing my father say after I went back that it was the original house of the emperor when he was a prince."

"Originally, it was too long ago to remember this matter, but now that my mother told me, it was right."

The eldest lady squeezed the piece of paper tightly, her face tense: "Why is the emperor's jade pendant in the hands of the Yongchang County Lord? She couldn't have stolen it, right?"

The eldest lady gave a short laugh: "It seems that the emperor knew everything about what happened back then, and even... it was an idea that he and that woman planned together!"

Huo Changhe sighed slightly. He just said those few words lightly, just to distract his mother's emotions, but now it seems that it is useless.

The eldest lady was so angry that she gritted her teeth and turned pale: "What a king of a country! I did something dirty and let my husband bear the infamy and cover it up for them. What does this mean?"

Huo Changhe gently held her shoulders and comforted her in a low voice: "Mom, be careful not to get angry because of your bad health. What my father cares about most is you. If he knew that you were so angry with yourself because of this, he would also be sad. He always hopes that you are safe and happy, and he will also Joyful.”

Yan Ruyu trimmed the hair behind Madam's ears: "Mother, the prince is right. Anger is useless. Anger will only make us uncomfortable. Just wait and see, I will definitely give you this bad breath."

The eldest lady's eyes were red and she held her hand: "Ruyu."

"Then," the eldest lady suddenly thought of something, "Huo Changxian... Bah, that bastard, is he the emperor's son?"

Yan Ruyu thought about it carefully, and combined with what Hong Yu said about Huo Changxian being made a prince in his previous life, it was probably that.

The emperor had an affair with the late empress's distant niece and got her pregnant, which was not very honorable. In addition, the old prince was highly accomplished and held military power. The emperor was afraid of him, so he persuaded the head of Yongchang County to let her commit his life. For the old prince, killing two birds with one stone.

I'm afraid he originally had the intention of putting the Lady of Yongchang County in the Changning Palace and letting her monitor the old prince's every move. But who knew that the old prince was devoted to his wife and had no intention of letting the Lady of Yongchang County enter the palace.

The marriage was a formality, and the old prince left the capital. The Lord of Yongchang County must have been dumbfounded, and cried to the emperor again. The emperor then asked her to come to Lincheng, the city closest to the northwest, to wait for the birth of the child and find an opportunity. Say it again.

Unexpectedly, the search lasted for more than 20 years, and I couldn't even get through the door of the palace.

However, these are just speculations and have not been confirmed yet.

Yan Ruyu said: "This matter has not been determined yet. Only the head of Yongchang County knows it. Don't worry, the truth will come to light sooner or later."

The eldest lady let out a heavy breath: "I'm so angry!"

Henhen patted the table and was silent for a moment. His tense body slowly softened and he whispered: "I'm confused. Your father has been upset about this a few times. Although he didn't say anything, I know. He must be in more pain than I am.”

"The originally loving couple had a thorn in their side for no reason. Now he..."

"I owe him an apology after all."

The eldest lady's eyes were red. In front of her son and daughter-in-law, she still held back tears. She wiped her eyes and forced a smile: "Changhe, Ruyu, you are my eldest son and daughter-in-law. When our family is settled in the future, , I will leave it all to you, I just want to enjoy my happiness!"

"At that time, let's build another tomb for your father, okay?"

Yan Ruyu felt sour in her heart and held her hand: "Okay, listen to mother, and ask a few eminent monks to pray for you. Father will know."

The eldest lady pursed her lips, but still couldn't hold it back, tears rolled down her cheeks.

Yan Ruyu glanced at Huo Changhe, and Huo Changhe quietly exited. As soon as he walked out of the door, he heard the whimpering inside, and his heart felt like a knife.

Yan Ruyu gently hugged the eldest lady and let her cry happily for a while. After a while, she softly persuaded: "Mother, we can't look back on the past. We can't regret and grieve over the overturned soup bowl. But letting go for the time being does not mean giving up. We have to move forward. Look, there’s a difference between moving on and giving up.”

The eldest lady stopped her sorrow and nodded with tears in her eyes: "You are right, Yu'er, I am not just sad about the past, but more because of my husband's worthlessness. He has been loyal and loyal to his family and country all his life. , I have never had any selfish intentions, but in the end..."

Not only has his reputation been damaged for more than 20 years, but he has also endured great grievances and pressure, leaving him with no trace of his body.

How to make people not sad!

"I know, mother, don't worry. Regarding my father's affairs, as well as the grievances of the prince and the Changning Palace, the prince and I will definitely work together to find out one by one. One day, we will definitely let the world see that my father is upright and plays the piano with you. He Ming has never had any ambiguity with anyone else.

The prince, like his father, has no one to blame for his family, country, and world! "

The eldest lady was so excited that she held Yan Ruyu's hand tightly and said hello repeatedly.

"Mom, can I tell you a few happy things?"

"Okay, tell me, tell me quickly."

Yan Ruyu told everything about her visit to the county lord's mansion in the past two days. When she mentioned the embarrassment and ugliness of the county lord Yongchang, the eldest lady burst out laughing again.

Under the corridor, Huo Changhe and Huo Changxu stood side by side.

"Brother, fortunately we have you in our family, and fortunately you are married to my elder sister-in-law."

Huo Changhe's face was solemn and he stared straight ahead.

Huo Changxu was confused: "Brother, what are you looking at?"

Huo Changhe said solemnly: "There used to be a south wall, but now it has fallen down."

Huo Changxu: "..."
