Song Zhu looked sincere and showed no malice.
Chen Chan'er hesitated for a moment and let Song Zhu in.
Song Zhu glanced around the yard.
The yard is not big and the layout looks very simple. It is enough for a family of three to live in tightly together.
Chen Chaner brought tea to Song Zhu, and Song Zhu glanced at her hand.
It looks a bit rough. It seems that there are no servants here. Everything is done by my father's concubine herself.
Is that why this place makes dad feel more like home?
There was a complicated emotion in Song Zhu's eyes.
"I wonder how did you know this place?"
Chen Chaner sat down and asked softly.
"I followed my father here and only then did I find out that he had a mistress and even had a daughter."
Song Zhu still feels like he is dreaming.
"I'm sorry, the prince and I...are in love with each other. I don't want to destroy your family, I just want to join your family. Unfortunately, my identity...cannot allow the prince to take me into the palace, and besides..."
Chen Chan'er lowered her head and stopped talking midway.
She was about to cry, and her thin shoulders looked so pitiful.
"What else?"
Song Zhu frowned slightly.
"Plus, the princess is jealous, my lord, for all these years, the prince has only had you and Miss Nuan'er as his two children.
The prince had many concubines in his backyard, but none of them could give birth to his child.
The prince knew all about this matter, and in order to protect me, he did not bring me into the palace as a concubine.
Because of this, I was able to give birth to my daughter smoothly."
Chen Chaner's words made Song Zhu look a little unhappy.
He knew that his mother would not allow a concubine to give birth to his father's child.
When he was a child, he even witnessed his mother forcefully pouring a bowl of medicine into the mouth of a concubine.
The aunt was very nice to him, but he was young at the time and witnessed all this, and he didn't know what his mother was doing.
It was not until he grew up a little and found out that none of his father's concubines could give birth to his father's children that he vaguely suspected that the bowl of medicine was a contraceptive drug.
It seems that what this mistress said is true...
It seems that my father is really concerned about this concubine.
Song Zhu pursed her lips and said nothing. Chen Chaner asked hesitantly.
"Sir, now that you know about Jiao'er and me, what about the princess..."
"I haven't told my mother about this yet."
Song Zhu's words made Chen Chan'er feel a little relieved.
“Thank you, sir. Don’t worry, I have no intention of replacing the princess.
I just hope that the prince can come and see Jiao'er and me from time to time.
If possible, could you keep it a secret, sir?"
Chen Chan'er looked at Song Zhu expectantly and cautiously.
Song Zhu stammered and didn't answer immediately. Just as he was about to answer, a childish voice sounded behind him.
"Mother, who is this brother?"
Song Zhu turned around and saw Song Jiaoer wearing a pink jacket.
Song Jiaoer's big eyes are extremely clear, soft and tender, and she looks very well-behaved.
Song Zhu developed a slight liking for this half-sister at first sight.
"Jiao'er, come here. This is your big brother, your father's eldest son."
Chen Chaner waved her hand and took Song Jiaoer to introduce them.
Song Jiao'er blinked her eyes and called softly, "Big brother, I'm Jiao'er, I'm three years old this year."
Song Zhu's expression was a little stiff, and he didn't know what to say.
"Big brother, are you here to see Jiao'er?"
Song Jiao'er walked up to Song Zhu without any fear, pulled at his sleeves with her little hands, and looked up at him with her little face.
Song Zhu looked at Song Jiaoer's clear and pure eyes, and for a moment he didn't dare to look her in the eye.
It would be more accurate to say that he came to question the mother and daughter rather than to visit them.
But in front of the child, Song Zhu couldn't say anything harsh, so he could only mumble a "hmm".
Song Jiao'er immediately smiled and said, "Big brother, can you play with Jiao'er?"
"Jiao'er, big brother is talking to mother. Can you let big brother play with you later?"
Chen Chan'er quickly pulled Song Jiao'er over.
Song Jiaoer pouted when she heard that.
Song Zhu thought that Song Jiao'er would make a scene like Song Nuan'er did.
But to his surprise, although Song Jiaoer was disappointed, she also agreed very obediently and went back to the house obediently.
This comparison made Song Zhu feel more favorable towards Song Jiaoer, his half-sister.
"Sir, what I just said...can you please keep it secret?"
Chen Chaner hesitated and continued what she had just said.
“I can keep it a secret for now, but Song Jiao’er is my father’s biological daughter after all.
Have you and my father discussed what to do with her in the future?"
Song Zhulian asked about this matter.
Thinking of Song Nuan'er, as the legitimate daughter of Prince Ning's Mansion, being spoiled by her mother and becoming spoiled and willful.
As a concubine's daughter, Song Jiao'er was brought up to be very polite and well-behaved.
Song Zhu couldn't help but sigh.
Chen Chaner smiled bitterly upon hearing this, "No, I don't want to think about it too much for now. I am already very satisfied to be able to accompany the prince, and I dare not expect too much.
As for Jiao'er, I think His Majesty should have his own ideas and plans."
"Well, I will keep your relationship with Song Jiao'er a secret from my mother. I also hope you and Song Jiao'er can keep my coming here a secret from my father."
