His thin body was shaking constantly.

At the same time, it also tells of her pain and sorrow.

After her parents left, her hard life began and lasted for more than a year.

The Lin family has completely changed since my parents left.

She wrote many letters back to the palace, but all of them fell on deaf ears. She had never received a letter from her mother.

She was like an abandoned child.

The Lin family also found a way to get rid of the maidservant her parents left for her. Only the two maids who came with her as a dowry were also taken in by her husband.

No matter what she said, she was innocent, but the Lin family just didn't believe it.

Now the husband has married a concubine, and she was driven into the backyard to fend for herself.

Only a little maid was sent to bring some food to the mother and daughter every day.

When the child was sick, they just asked a traveling doctor to check it out. The doctor said that the child was not from the Lin family and would die if he died.

In the end, seeing that the child’s condition was so serious, they simply didn’t even bother hiring any traveling doctors and just waited for him to die.

Shangguan Ziqi gently patted Shangguan Ru's back and waited for her to cry enough.

After crying for more than a quarter of an hour, Shangguan Ru finally stopped crying.

"Tell me what injustice you have suffered. I will stand up for you." Shangguan Ziqi led her to sit on the chair.

The marks on my neck are still very obvious and will take two days to disappear.

Shangguan Ru was gentle and docile in nature. She was brought up by the Third Madam to obey her parents and her husband's orders.

Engrave the Three Obediences and Four Virtues into your bones.

She is the kind of person who would not resist unless she was pushed to the extreme.

Now that she has her mother's family to rely on, her resentment still emerges.

I told him everything that happened after my parents left, in bits and pieces.

She cried as she spoke.

"Brother, I am truly innocent. More than three years ago, I went out to burn incense and saved a scholar. I just gave him some money and sent him to live in a temple.

Later, after I got married, I met her several times when I went to burn incense.

He had been studying for the exam and hadn't said a word.

I never saw her again after that. As a result, the Lin family found out about this from somewhere and said that my Yue'er was not the Lin family's child.

From then on, my husband and I were no longer favored by him.

When my parents were still alive, they didn't dare to do anything. It was only after they passed away that the Lin family treated us, mother and daughter, like enemies.

They even found a way to take away some of my dowry, and I had almost used up the rest.

Now I can’t leave the Lin family, and they won’t let me go out either. I feel like a prisoner locked in a cage.

Even when the child is sick, they can’t find a good doctor. They want to kill us, mother and daughter, but I am a woman in the inner house, and the sky and the earth are all useless. I can only die.”

Yu Zheng's heart sank as she listened to her story.

That’s right, the Lin family wanted to force people to death, and they are still on the side of justice.

An unclean woman, no matter what family she comes from, deserves to die.

This is the thinking of this era.

Yu Zheng was so angry that he wanted to kill the Lin family with his own hands.

The couple listened to her carefully until she finished speaking.

Her own handkerchief was already soaked with tears, and Yu Zheng handed her hers.

Shangguan Ru still doesn't know her identity.

He looked at the handkerchief in front of him helplessly.

"Sister Ru, I'm your sister-in-law, Yu Yuzheng. Now that we know your situation, we will definitely take care of it for you. Don't worry, you won't be bullied again." Yu Yuzheng handed the handkerchief forward again to make a promise.

Shangguan Ru then answered: "Thank you, sister-in-law."

"Sister Ru, please don't commit suicide again." Shangguan Ziqi felt like a raging storm in his heart after listening to her story, but he tried to suppress it.

It’s better not to let Sister Ru know the reason. It’s better to hide it for as long as possible.

Let’s wait until we get back to Beijing before we talk about it.

"Sister Ru, you don't have to stay in the Lin family anymore. Come back to Beijing with your brother." Shangguan Ziqi advised.

"Go back to Beijing? My parents won't agree. They always told me that a daughter who is married off is like water that has been poured out, and that I should never go back to Beijing and just live my life in the Lin family." Shangguan Ru still remembered what her parents said.

"Hmph!" After hearing this, Yu Zheng couldn't help but snorted coldly.

Of course she would not be allowed to return to the capital. If the people in the palace saw her face or the prince saw it, that would be disastrous.

"Don't worry. With my eldest brother here, even my third uncle and third aunt won't dare to stop us." Shangguan Ziqi said in a gentle voice.

If you listen carefully, you can hear the anger in his words that is almost uncontrollable.

"Really?" Shangguan Ru's hopeful eyes made people feel sad again.

A woman who had been docile for many years was forced into this state. It shows how evil the Lin family was.

Yu Yuzheng thought about it again and found it unbelievable.

There must be something wrong here.

It's not just what it seems on the surface.

"Really. I'll have someone send you back tonight, and the child will stay here. Your sister-in-law knows some medical knowledge, and she will make sure the child gets well. Tomorrow, my brother will go to the Lin family in person to ask for an explanation." Shangguan Ziqi affirmed.

"Yeah." Shangguan Ru finally felt relieved.

Who doesn't want to live? No one really wants to die, unless they really can't live anymore.

Now that her child can be saved, she doesn't want to die anymore.

Her child still needs her, and she will raise the child even if she has to leave the Lin Mansion.

Her child stayed with her for more than two years.

During this difficult period of more than a year, I was supported by the thought of living for my children.

If the child wasn't dying, she wouldn't have thought of ending it all.

Shangguan Ziqi pressed her sleeping point again and asked Qingfeng and Mingyue to send the person back.

It would be bad if an unmarried woman was not at home at night and was discovered.

The Lin family used their reputation to persecute her.

After Shangguan Ru left, the couple sat in silence.

Yu Yuzheng picked up the two maids and took the child to take care of him.

"Husband..." Yu Zhenzheng said softly, and then didn't know what to say to comfort him.

When they met Shangguan Ru at the Lin residence that night, they both wondered what had happened over the years.

Shangguan Ru looks so much like Concubine Luo in the imperial palace. There is no other possibility except that she is his child.

That's why I brought the person back to the inn without hesitation.

So whose child Shangguan Zishu is is not clear.

Shangguan Ru and Shangguan Zishu were born on the same day.

However, the third wife's Shangguan Ru looks like Concubine Luo. Anyone could see it in the mansion.

No wonder this younger sister is always away and rarely stays at home, especially after she turned ten.

If she didn't look so much like Concubine Luo, perhaps her life would have been longer and she could have grown up safely in the mansion.

Now thinking carefully about Shangguan Zishu's appearance, he really does look a bit like the Third Lady, but he still looks more like a man from the Shangguan family, so no one has ever suspected him.

“No wonder Third Aunt was so concerned about the Crown Prince’s Consort’s belly as soon as Third Uncle’s family returned home.

My belly was much bigger than her elder sister's, but she never showed any concern for me.

It turned out that the eldest sister was her daughter-in-law, and she was pregnant with her grandson.

This conspiracy started twenty years ago."

Yu Yuzheng was truly shocked.

"The Shangguan family's throne is almost as important as the royal family's throne." She sighed again.

"Your fall from the horse was probably planned by Third Uncle. Second House and Aunt just took advantage of your coma to make Second Brother and Third Prince close so that they can help him in the future.

I didn't expect that the biggest conspiracy in the Prince's Mansion was caused by the third uncle's family.

Concubine Luo should have participated in the child exchange. Otherwise, Sister Ru would have died long ago, and there would be no reason for her to be alive now.

It is because Concubine Luo is watching the mansion. If Sister Ru dies, she will definitely go to the third house to make trouble. After all, that is her own flesh and blood.

Now that I'm married, if I die in my husband's family, I will have nothing to do with the third wife.

Then the Lin family's treatment of Sister Ru must be related to the Third House. The purpose is to force her to death and to explain to Concubine Luo.

The truth is so cruel.”
