The eunuch weighed the silver bag given by Su Liming for a few times, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he put on a posture and spoke seriously:
"Since we are all worried about the Emperor, I will talk to you."
Seeing that the eunuch had relaxed, Su Liming hurriedly put his ear over.
After a long while.
Su Liming: "But is it true?"
"Of course, how could I deceive you with such a thing?"
After being questioned by Su Liming, the eunuch was obviously unhappy. "Believe it or not, I have already said everything I need to say."
"Finally, let me remind Lord Su that a princess is still a princess after all, and she cannot be replaced by just any sparrow."
After saying that, he turned around and left without caring what Su Liming thought.
Su Liming stood there in a daze, not expecting such an answer.
But the news that Princess Ning Wan died in prison was released by Shen Jingyi himself.
If you really don't want the princess's life, why do you want to put her in prison and let her suffer?
Su Liming returned home with a melancholy look on his face.
Mrs. Su, who was waiting at home, saw Su Liming's frustrated look and hurried over to him, her face full of worry: "What happened?"
Su Liming looked at Madam Su who was waiting for his good news, his face solemn: "Is it possible that we messed up that matter?"
"We are all following the emperor's wishes. What's the problem?" Mrs. Su immediately guessed what Su Liming was talking about and asked aloud without thinking.
Mrs. Su thought about how much trouble she had been taking these days because of the so-called adopted daughter in the mansion.
Now her husband told her that this matter had failed, which was unacceptable no matter how she thought about it.
"The Emperor doesn't want her at all!" Su Liming raised his eyes, looked at Madam Su, and said with emotion: "The princess is not dead at all. The adopted daughter the Emperor wants us to adopt is a real princess!"
He had sensed something was wrong as early as when Shen Jingyi asked him to adopt a daughter.
Why did he want to adopt a daughter for no reason, and even name her "Ning Wan"? It turned out that he wanted to use this to change the identity of the real Ning Wan.
Fortunately, this old fool thought that Shen Jingyi was dissatisfied with the man's low status, so he deliberately used the princess's name to raise his own value.
Madam Su froze. "The one in the mansion?"
"It's fake. He is really already in the palace." Su Liming said as he sat down on the chair.
He went to great lengths to hold a banquet for his so-called adopted daughter, and in front of everyone, he wrote her into the family tree.
If I rashly drive them away now, I don’t know how many people will take the opportunity to impeach me.
Su Liming was the Minister of Rites who had just taken office not long ago. If he did something that disregarded etiquette and laws, how would he convince the people in the future?
Su Liming was silent for a long time, then sighed: "Never mind, she's just an adopted daughter. I can still afford to raise her."
Seeing that her husband had said this, Mrs. Su could not say anything.
But I felt a little more dissatisfied with Qiuyue.
No wonder people looked down on her, it turns out she was just a fake.
Fortunately, she had someone vacate a good room for her to stay in, but now it seems there is no need to waste it.
Mrs. Su's eyes rolled, and Su Liming knew what his wife was thinking.
He took Madam Su's hand and said helplessly, "Just admit your mistake. The girl didn't do anything wrong. It was just our negligence."
"If we treat them unfairly now, others will inevitably get wind of it and ruin the reputation of our Su family."
"Besides, raising a daughter doesn't cost much. If we treat her well, she will know how to repay us if she is not heartless."
"Besides, we don't have a daughter to begin with, so it would be wonderful to have one by our side and enjoy the bliss of family life."
Su Liming patted his wife's hand comfortingly as he spoke.
Madam Su naturally understood what her husband meant. She looked at Su Liming, who was full of worry but still trying to comfort her.
"If we had known we had the wrong person, this wouldn't have happened."
"She is a poor girl with no assets at all, what can she bring to us?"
Although Mrs. Su is also a woman, her disdain for Qiuyue has not diminished in the slightest.
"If she were a boy, like Su Zi, it would be fine, but she is a girl after all.
Even if she were to marry into the high-ranking officials of the capital, she might not be able to sell this favor.”
Those people in the capital are all shrewd people. They didn't even attend the banquet, which made it clear that they didn't want to be blackmailed by them.
If Su Liming really did what she wanted, Qiuyue would probably have to stay in the Su Mansion for the rest of her life.
Although it is not impossible to support him, what is the point of supporting such a useless person?
"We'll see what happens later. Anyway, the fact that Qiuyue is our daughter cannot be changed."
Su Liming naturally knew what his wife was thinking, but who could guarantee that there would be no chance later?
Anyway, the person is already in the house and it is impossible to drive him away, so we might as well treat him well.
Seeing her husband insisting like this, Mrs. Su naturally did not refute him.
"You just said that the princess was in the palace?" Mrs. Su still couldn't believe it.
Su Liming: "Well, the people in the palace said it themselves, how can it be false?"
Su Liming let go of his hand, picked up the tea beside him and took a sip.
Madam Su hesitated to speak: "What does the emperor want by keeping her?"
"This is not something we should worry about." Su Liming obviously didn't want to continue talking about this topic. He held his forehead with one hand and rubbed his eyebrows, looking like he had a headache.
Seeing this, Mrs. Su hurried forward, put her hands on Su Liming and started to massage him.
Qiuyue, who heard all this, was panicked.
He hurried to his room, fearing that he would be discovered by the Su couple.
Only after returning to her room did Qiuyue dare to breathe deeply. Although she knew that the Su family must have had a reason for adopting her, she never imagined that they were doing so under the order of the Emperor.
But the bad news is that the Su couple found the wrong person.
Judging from Mr. Su's attitude, it seems that he can continue to stay here, but everyone in the mansion can see that Mrs. Su dislikes him.
It seems that I need to make some plans for myself.
Dong-dong
The crisp knock on the door scared Qiuyue so much that she trembled all over.
The maid who led the way, Qiuyue's current personal maid, saw Qiuyue's big reaction and a trace of contempt flashed across her eyes.
She has such little courage. She is obviously the daughter of the Su family, but she still acts like a thief, reacting so strongly to the slightest noise.
Although the maid thought so, she still hurried forward and gave Qiuyue a light support, "Don't be afraid, young lady, it's the young master who is here."
Su Zi was standing at the door, with a hint of embarrassment on his face. "My brother is being rude."
