Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space
Chapter 369 Things change and people change
Wan Shufang was shocked by the Crown Princess's words and looked up at her in disbelief.
That's not what the Crown Princess meant by what she just said. Why did she say that? Does the Crown Princess know something?
Wan Shufang's heart skipped a beat when she thought of this possibility.
She didn't reveal anything on her face, she only looked at the Crown Princess with doubts in her eyes, as if waiting for her to answer her questions, but in fact, she was rapidly thinking about the other meaning of the Crown Princess's words.
The Crown Princess obviously knew that her words would be misunderstood, so she made up her mind after struggling for a while.
She said in a complicated tone: "My mother is a concubine in the family. She suffered a lot when she was young, so she is very eager to get married and leave the Cheng'en Palace as soon as possible."
"And my father's first wife was my father's biological sister. She was not favored by my father because he had a sweetheart at that time, and that person was Concubine De's sister."
Talking about the past, the Crown Princess had complicated eyes and her tone gradually became low and sad.
"The reason why my eldest aunt married my father was because my father needed the power of Duke Cheng'en at that time. Unfortunately, the eldest Zhen was too smart and held my father's heart in her hands early on."
"Da Zhen has always been worried about her not being able to be her father's first wife, so she complained to her eldest aunt, and her father liked her, so her eldest aunt was in a very bad situation, even if she gave birth to her father. Even the two sons can't resist the arrogance of Da Zhen."
"The most important thing is that she also exhausted her efforts in the struggle for the concubine. Before she died, she asked her father to choose a girl from the Cheng'en Palace to be his concubine on the grounds that there was no one to take care of her two children."
"My father agreed, and the person he chose was my aunt. Since my aunt became the concubine, she has put her thoughts on my father. My father and she also had a warm and harmonious life, but the direct relationship was not the same. more and more intense."
"My father was not valued by the late emperor at that time, so he naturally had to spend some time on the matter of seizing the legitimate son. Since then, the relationship with my aunt has faded away. At that time, the most important thing for the late emperor was Prince Mingde."
Speaking of Prince Mingde, the Crown Princess paused for a while, and her eyes unconsciously fell on Wan Shufang, who was thoughtful.
She pursed her lips before adding one more sentence: "The princess at that time was the daughter of the Xu family, that is, the biological sister of Mrs. Anyanghou. For some reason, Prince Mingde suddenly forced the palace to rebel. The late emperor was very sad and ordered Mingde to be killed. The prince, the princess and the children of Prince Mingde all set themselves on fire and followed Prince Mingde. After that, the father came to the throne, and my aunt also became the queen with the help of Duke Chengen's palace."
"It's just that the Cheng'en Palace has declined a lot over the years, and my father's attitude towards my mother is not as good as before. Naturally, my mother will take my father more seriously. After all, she loves her father sincerely."
What the Crown Princess knew was from the accidental words of her elders. She had no idea what the Emperor had done when he came to power.
But she confirmed that the queen was sincere to the emperor, and her strange attitude towards the prince was probably because of the emperor.
Thinking of the emperor's indifference to the queen and his guard against the prince, the princess's eyes were filled with water, as if she could not hold back and was about to cry.
"Crown Princess, don't think too much."
Wan Shufang was originally thinking about the possibility that the queen, as a concubine, had suffered a lot in the Cheng'en Palace. She might hate the Cheng'en Palace, or maybe the prince's birth was not what she wanted, and that's why she was so devoted to the prince. cold.
Seeing that the Crown Princess was about to shed tears, Wan Shufang quickly put aside her suspicions and quickly spoke to comfort her.
"In the final analysis, matters between the Queen and Your Majesty are between husband and wife. As outsiders, we cannot empathize and can only speculate through some details."
"But in this way, what we know is not comprehensive. Therefore, if we want to understand everything and protect the people we care about, then we have to find a way to understand the whole picture before making a decision."
Fearing that the Crown Princess would be impulsive and make the Queen hate the Crown Prince even more, Wan Shufang immediately persuaded the Crown Princess not to act impulsively.
The Crown Princess understood what Wan Shufang meant and nodded immediately, but then she was unwilling to mention the Queen's affairs again.
She believed that what she said before had revealed a lot of information, and Wan Shufang should be able to find out a lot of things based on this information.
"Wan Shufang, your Highness and Chen Changli will be safe so far. You can relax a little bit. As for the future..." The Crown Princess paused for a while and then said, "If His Highness contacts me specifically, I will send someone to inform you."
Wan Shufang understood the meaning of the Crown Princess's words and nodded immediately: "I understand, thank you Crown Princess."
After thanking the Crown Princess solemnly, Wan Shufang stayed with her for a while before getting up and leaving the palace. As a result, she was stopped by Princess De's people before she reached the Zhengde Gate.
"General's wife, my wife is here to invite you." The smiling palace maid seemed to know what Wan Shufang was worried about, and added specifically, "Please don't worry, I have taken care of everyone before coming here, so the general's wife is here." No one will know about going to see my mother-in-law."
Hearing her vows, Wan Shufang could only go with her once no matter how much she wanted to refuse.
"My wife, Wan Shufang, has met Concubine De." When she arrived at the pavilion where Concubine De was waiting, Wan Shufang saluted her respectfully.
The reason why she made her attitude appear respectful was because she did not want Concubine De to take advantage of the situation.
Concubine De knew her little thoughts and didn't care at all. She even gave her an appreciative smile.
"A month or two have passed by in a blink of an eye. Now that I'm meeting you again, I always feel that something is wrong with you."
After pouring a cup of tea herself and handing it to Wan Shufang, and indicating that she should sit down and not be restrained in front of her, De Fei picked up a cup of tea and took a sip.
The sweet tea immediately brought a sense of warmth as soon as it entered her throat. Concubine De sighed unconsciously: "It is indeed Wuyi Dahongpao. The feeling of drinking this tea is different from other teas."
After hearing this, Wan Shufang knew that Concubine De was not in a hurry for her answer.
She immediately sat opposite Concubine De, took a sip of tea.
The tea tastes really good, but it's a pity that she has never drunk any good tea and doesn't know the difference between various famous teas.
She took a sip and stopped drinking. She put the tea cup back on the table and raised her head to look at Concubine De.
Seeing her looking elsewhere, as if she was unwilling to pay attention to him, Wan Shufang was not angry, let alone alert, but suddenly thought of what Concubine Xue almost said to herself, that was the past related to the queen.
It just so happened that the Crown Princess also said something today, and the Da Zhen family the Crown Princess mentioned was Concubine De's sister.
The emperor's first wife and the great Zhen family were fighting to the death, and the relationship between the empress and the concubine De was probably like fire and water. I don't know if the apparent calmness between the two people now was because of the emperor, or because of other things.
Thoughts were spinning, Wan Shufang looked at Concubine De with burning eyes, and asked in a calm tone: "Concubine De, I am very curious about the Queen's past. I wonder if you are willing to help me clear up my doubts."
