Chapter 374 Turning One Year Old, Recognizing Liu Zhichun
As evening approached, Jiang Er came to find Xie Xiu and told him the news from the palace.
After they left, Emperor Taihe questioned Princess Anle and threatened to ask the nanny to verify her identity.
Princess Anle had no choice but to admit that she was not a virgin, but she was not unfaithful to her husband, but was forced.
After saying this, she banged her head against the pillar, saying that she would die to prove her innocence.
Although he was caught in time by the palace maids, he was still injured on the head.
Emperor Taihe could only keep her in the palace to recuperate, saying it was for rest, but in fact he was just confining her to her room.
Afterwards, he asked the imperial physician to take her pulse. After confirming that she was pregnant, he sent someone to deliver a secret letter to King Zhou, asking for his opinion.
Therefore, until the reply from King Zhou arrives, Princess Anle will be confined to the palace.
However, even if Jiang Er didn't say it, Xie Ying knew about it.
She secretly kept Xiao Miao in the palace and kept an eye on Princess Anle.
Not only is Princess Anle now under house arrest, her male guards are also not allowed to stay in the palace and can only stay in Prince Zhou's Mansion in the capital.
Not only that, Emperor Taihe was very worried about these people and specially arranged for the Black Kirin Guards to monitor them secretly.
This is not surprising. Emperor Taihe now has a precious son, so he will naturally be wary of King Zhou.
In the original book, because the Crown Prince of Zhou married Xie Jia, he stayed in the capital as a hostage, and Princess Anle married Jiang Er and also stayed in the capital.
Only then did Emperor Taihe feel much more at ease about the Zhou Palace.
It’s completely different now.
As the Chen and Xie families encountered trouble, King Zhou did not dare to act rashly and sent his son to the capital as a hostage.
Now she sent Princess Anle over, but the other party forced her to marry in the street, and she exposed her mistake in public, bringing her shame.
Emperor Taihe didn't know how disgusted he was with Princess Anle at this moment, and he was probably disgusted with Prince Zhou's Mansion as well.
How can I trust those guards?
What's more, Princess Anle dared to do such shameful things as losing her virginity before marriage, getting pregnant, and forcing the top scholar to marry her in the street. Who knows how bold she is and whether she will do something even more outrageous?
Now that she is under house arrest in the palace, the people she brought with her will naturally become the focus of the Black Kirin Guards' vigilance.
As for what these people will do next...
Xie Ying rubbed her fingers together, and several thin seedlings immediately appeared in her hands.
She threw them casually, and the seedlings immediately sank into the ground and disappeared, heading to Prince Zhou's Palace.
If these people dare to continue plotting, she will definitely give them a special gift.
……
Time quickly arrived and it was Xie Ying's first birthday.
Two days before she finally turned one year old, Luo Zheng, who had gone to capture the direct descendants of the Jia family, rushed back exhausted.
He had been counting the days so that he could rush back to attend Xie Ying's first birthday.
In order to save time, we didn't dare to stop on the way.
Fortunately, we caught up.
In order to avoid suspicion on Xie Ying, he specially moved it up two days.
On Xie Ying's first birthday, the Xie residence was even more lively than the day Xie Xiu became the top scorer in the imperial examination.
After all, although Xie Xiuzhong was the top scorer, everyone could only share in his joy.
Xie Ying is different. The Princess of Fu'an County is a lucky star. If you come to attend her first birthday, you might get some blessings!
So that day, almost all the shareholders of Taiping Coal Mine came.
Except Emperor Taihe and Concubine Jiang.
Even Lu Xuan came to celebrate personally with his wife and seven daughters.
Luo Zheng also came as a representative of Emperor Taihe, Concubine Jiang and the little prince, and presented four gifts.
Even Queen Mother Zhao in Renshou Palace sent her maid Feng to deliver gifts.
But when Nanny Feng saw Liu Zhichun, she was dumbfounded and even blurted out Liu Zhichun's former name!
"Ruyi! You..." She widened her eyes in disbelief, "You are actually..."
There was no panic on Liu Zhichun's face. Instead, he smiled faintly and invited Nanny Feng in to talk.
Nanny Feng frowned and after hesitating for a moment, she followed her into the room.
Now that there were no outsiders around, she finally asked, "Are you Sister Ruyi? Have you been using the identity of Zhichun all these years?"
Liu Zhichun smiled and sighed, "Yeah, I didn't expect that so many years would pass in the blink of an eye.
When Zhichun died because of me, she was always thinking about her parents, relatives, brothers and sisters at home.
I owe her my life, so I should take good care of her family."
In fact, the Liu family was not good to their daughter. When the family was in financial difficulty, they sold their daughter in order to survive, and from then on they let her die outside.
It was not until she returned to the Liu family as Liu Zhichun that those people learned that she had returned from the capital and that her master's family was a wealthy family. They began to covet her and the things in her hands.
Not only did he want to monopolize her, he also wanted to marry her off in exchange for a high bride price.
Although these people are greedy, how can they compare to the jackals, tigers and leopards in the palace?
She easily controlled the Liu family and married Tu Yong.
With her guidance, the Liu family started a small business and their lives gradually became better. Not only did they stop bothering her, they were also afraid that she would go back to her parents' home to beg for money.
Unfortunately, she had lived in the countryside for a long time and had become a little lazy. Also, because of a hidden illness she had suffered in her early years, she was tortured by illness from time to time. She did not waste too much time on raising Sun Qingqing and only focused on raising her granddaughter.
So much so that she failed to notice the resentment hidden beneath Sun Qingqing's well-behaved face, and treated her as a toothless little rabbit.
In the end, he almost harmed his daughter and Yingying.
Liu Zhichun's mind flashed through the past few years, and finally he looked at Nanny Feng. Seeing that she looked even older than himself, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Nanny Feng was also in a complicated mood. She was three years younger than Yi and had always lived a life of luxury in the palace, yet the other party seemed to be in better spirits than she was.
At that time, the master was very fond of Ruyi, but was worried that Ruyi was too outstanding and would be favored by the late emperor, so he wanted Ruyi to marry into the Zhao family and become a concubine of her brother from her natal family.
Ruyi said that she owed Zhichun a life and promised Zhichun to help her take care of her family. She insisted on leaving the palace and went to Zhichun's hometown.
The master was sad for a long time because of this incident, and she also felt that Ruyi was really confused.
With her status, if she married into the Zhao family, she would be a concubine, wearing gold and silver, eating fine food, and having servants to serve her for the rest of her life.
Isn’t it better than going to the countryside?
After so many years, she and her master had long forgotten Ruyi, but who knew that he had already come to the capital.
Or is it Xie Zhuangyuan’s mother-in-law in the countryside!
Although Ruyi only gave birth to a daughter, her son-in-law became the top scholar in the imperial examination, and her granddaughter was a lucky little girl and was even named the Princess of Fu'an County.
This life is even more glorious than being a concubine in the Zhao family!
Nanny Feng looked at Liu Zhichun, whose hair was covered with pearls and whose face was radiant, and she couldn't help feeling a little sad.
She couldn't help but complain: "Since you have come to the capital, why haven't you entered the palace to pay your respects to the master?"
