Chapter 376 Let the Prince Take a Concubine
"Princess Zhong, did you give the red jade bracelet that I gave you to someone else?"
Even Miss Shen stopped calling her, which showed how disappointed Madam Pang was with Shen Zhao.
Madam Pang stared straight at the red jade bracelet on Feng Li's wrist.
There is only one bracelet of this kind in the world. It is very different from ordinary red jade bracelets. It is as red as blood and emits a faint red glow.
With just one glance, Madam Pang was sure that the red jade bracelet on Feng Li's wrist was a family heirloom that she gave to Chen Zhao as a meeting gift.
Even her feelings can be conveyed, it seems that Miss Shen really doesn't care about Yunjin or the Pang family.
Feng Li was also very shocked:
"Zhao Zhao, the red jade bracelet was given to you by her!"
The red jade bracelet is related to her life experience, and she has been looking for her people.
At first she was surprised when she saw the red jade bracelet on Zhao Zhao's wrist, but then she asked.
A look of embarrassment flashed across Zhao Zhao's face, and she stopped asking about the origin of the red jade bracelet.
After all, Zhao Zhao didn't like her as a mother at that time, and she didn't want her relationship with Zhao Zhao to become worse.
Without waiting for Chu Mu to speak, Madam Pang walked towards Feng Li aggressively.
She reached out and grabbed Feng Li's wrist, "This red jade bracelet was given to Princess Zhong by me. Since Princess Zhong doesn't like it, I will take it back."
As he said this, he was about to pull the bracelet off Fengli's wrist.
Feng Li pulled her hand back abruptly and looked at Madam Pang with a strange expression.
He asked, "Where did you get the red jade bracelet?"
Madam Pang was furious at the moment, and seeing Feng Li dodging, she didn't want to return the things to her, so she said sharply:
"Don't think it belongs to you just because you wear it on your wrist. You still ask me where I got it. This is a family heirloom of my Pang family, passed down to the eldest daughter-in-law of each generation."
"You are old and ugly, you are not worthy of being the eldest daughter-in-law of our Pang family!"
The Pang family's heirloom! A gleam of light flashed in Feng Li's eyes.
Could she be a member of the Pang family?
"Listen to me, this bracelet belongs to me."
Feng Li's tone softened noticeably.
Because the person in front of her might be related to her.
How could Mrs. Pang believe that this jade bracelet was a dowry from Pang Qingyun's mother? What she said was a family heirloom was true. After all, her mother-in-law passed it to her, and then she passed it to her daughter-in-law. If it is passed down from generation to generation, wouldn't it be a family heirloom?
Moreover, this jade bracelet is very rare in the world, and this red jade is the best among the best. It is impossible for a second jade bracelet exactly the same to appear.
Mrs. Pang was about to snatch it away by force.
But Wen Chumu spoke.
"Mrs. Pang, that jade bracelet is indeed hers. I am wearing the jade bracelet you gave me."
Everything happened so fast that Chu Mu finally interrupted.
Mrs. Pang was stunned. She did not let go of Feng Li's hand, but turned her head to look behind her.
When he saw that Zhao Zhao was also wearing a red jade bracelet on her wrist, he was dazed for a moment.
There really are two identical red jade bracelets in this world.
Even the strange red light it emits is exactly the same.
Mrs. Pang suddenly remembered that this was her mother-in-law's dowry.
Now this woman has an identical one on her wrist. Does this mean that this woman has a relationship with her mother-in-law or with the Pang family?
Madam Pang suddenly let go of Feng Li.
She looked Feng Li up and down.
Not at all.
There is no similarity between him and his mother-in-law or his father-in-law.
"Madam, may I ask if you are from Yunzhou?"
My mother-in-law is from Yunzhou, so maybe this person is from her family.
Mrs. Pang had no doubt that Feng Li in front of her was related to Pang Qingyun.
Firstly, she looked down on that idiot Pang Qingyun. Secondly, Pang Qingyun had been following her since they were young, so it was impossible for him to be involved with other women.
Feng Li didn't know her identity, let alone remember where she came from.
She said a little excitedly:
"Mrs. Pang, are you saying I'm from Yunzhou?"
Mrs. Pang frowned. What did she mean by saying she was from Yunzhou?
Is she crazy? Doesn't she know where she comes from?
Under Madam Pang's questioning gaze, Feng Li spoke with a little sadness:
"I lost my memory when I was young and I don't remember who I am or where I came from.
This red jade bracelet is the only thing I have on me that proves my identity."
Feng Li's eyes lit up as she spoke:
"So, Madam Pang, do you know who I am?"
Mrs. Pang was stunned by the question.
Suddenly I felt sympathy for this dead woman.
Her tone softened a bit.
"I don't know who you are, but I can tell you that you are most likely from the Zhang family of Yunzhou."
Feng Li's brows furrowed.
Although she didn't remember her origins, she knew her name was Feng Li, and her surname was Feng, not Zhang.
"Madam Pang, does the Zhang family have any relatives with the surname Feng?"
Mrs. Pang really didn’t know about this.
"I don't know about that, but I can ask for you."
She doesn't know, but Pang Qingyun should know.
After all, Pang Qingyun had lived in Yunzhou with his mother-in-law for two years.
Feng Li stepped forward and said gratefully, "Thank you very much, Madam Pang."
The two people who were arguing with each other just now are now talking in a gentle voice.
Until Feng Li personally sent Madam Pang and Chen Baoyi out of the house with Li Yuwan.
Chu Mu looked at their receding backs. There were really strange things between women.
He turned and walked towards the yard where A Zhao was now.
Here, Chen Zhao looked at the Wu mother and daughter who were brought in by the servants and said:
"Madam Wu, are you here to tell me that you have fulfilled your promise to me?"
If the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty completely controlled the Marquis of Loyalty's Mansion in just a few days, she really should not be underestimated.
"I have come here today to ask for your help, Your Highness."
"Zhiyou, come here and kneel before the prince."
Wu Zhiyou obediently stepped forward and knelt down towards Chen Zhao.
"Your humble servant Wu Zhiyou pays homage to His Majesty."
Chen Zhao looked at the girl kneeling on the ground, a look of concentration flashing in his eyes.
Because she heard the girl in front of her constantly talking in her heart.
[My ancestor wanted to send me to the palace, and my mother wanted Prince Zhong to take me in as his concubine. I knew my mother was doing this for my own good, to prevent my ancestor from sending me to the deep palace and wasting half my life.
But I... only have that idiot from the Pang family in my heart...
Furthermore, how can mother be sure that Prince Zhong is willing to help us mother and daughter as a delaying tactic?
My surname is Wu and I am a member of the Wu family. If the news that Prince Zhong took me as his concubine gets out, the first one who will not forgive him will be the emperor. My uncle's intentions are as clear as Sima Zhao's.
How could His Majesty watch the Chu and Wu families join forces?]
"Stand up." Chen Zhao asked Wu Zhiyou to stand up.
She now knew the purpose of the visit of the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and her daughter.
"Madam, you brought Miss Wu here to ask me for something?"
The wife of the Marquis of Loyalty said with embarrassment:
“I beg Your Majesty to save my daughter’s life for the sake of our alliance.
Grant her the position of concubine."
The wife of the Marquis of Loyalty was afraid that Shen Zhao would misunderstand.
He hurriedly explained:
"Your Highness, I am not asking you to actually take my daughter into your residence. Instead, I am declaring to the public that you intend to take her as a concubine."
"That old woman brought Zhiyou from Jiangnan without telling me. She wanted to send Zhiyou to the palace as a concubine. How could I bear to watch my daughter, who hasn't even reached the age of marriage, go to the fire?"
As soon as the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty finished speaking, Chu Mu walked in from outside.
The wife of the Marquis of Loyalty immediately felt her face burning with anger, and she didn't know how to face the Princess of Chu.
Chu Mu frowned and looked at the mother and daughter. He heard everything that the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty said to A Zhao just now.
He was not worried that A Zhao would be deceived by the girl from the Wu family.
After all, A Zhao is also a woman.
He was worried that if Ah Zhao agreed to the request of the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty, there would be countless troubles and misunderstandings.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard Ah Zhao say:
