Chapter 183: See Mother?
Zhuque didn't understand why, but the princess wanted alum, so she must have her reasons.
The group set out from Yanjing City and did not arrive in Qin until the afternoon of the tenth day.
Su Yuheng and her maids Linglong and Zhuque, following the wedding procession, had just stepped into the Qin Empire's Bianjing Imperial City.
Su Yuheng ordered Zhuque: "Get off the carriage and buy some alum. The sooner the better."
Zhuque nodded, lifted the curtain of the carriage, and disappeared into the team.
After walking for about two quarters of an hour, the group finally arrived at the foot of the Qin Imperial City.
Zhuque lifted the curtain and came in, carefully handing the alum to Su Yuheng.
"Princess, take a look."
Su Yuheng took a quick look, accepted the alum, and whispered, "You did a good job."
"Did anyone see your face when you bought the alum?"
Suzaku shook his head: "No."
"That's good."
The carriage stopped.
Yun Tianhe rode his horse and drove to Su Yuheng's carriage.
"Princess Li, the people from the Prime Minister's Mansion have arrived to pick you up."
Su Yuheng lifted the curtain and saw Yun Tianhe's lips curled up and he looked at her meaningfully.
Following Yun Tianhe's gaze, he saw an old woman who was about forty or fifty years old outside the carriage.
There was a hint of sarcasm on the old woman's face, and her voice was filled with a hint of impatience.
"Please get out of the carriage, my lady. My lady is waiting for you."
Seeing that the man had a bad tone, Su Yuheng lowered the carriage curtain and remained unmoved.
For a moment, the atmosphere was extremely subtle.
The old woman's voice came from outside again.
"Why, do you have to ask for permission to get off the carriage?"
Seeing this, Yun Tianhe, who was standing by, scolded the old woman in a low voice.
"This Princess Li is at least the daughter of your Prime Minister's Mansion. She should be more careful with her attitude."
The old woman looked a little embarrassed and glanced into the carriage.
Changed attitude.
"Young lady, please go with this old servant to see the Madam."
"Princess, let's go out." Suzaku whispered beside him.
"This kind of rude old woman can be dealt with when the time comes. Now it's important to see the lady, so why bother with her?"
Su Yuheng sneered.
"This is the Prime Minister's Mansion's attitude towards me, Suzaku, do you see it?"
Su Yuheng sighed: "Forget it, I can endure it for my mother."
As she spoke, she opened the carriage curtain and got out with Suzaku.
Linglong also turned over and got off the horse.
After Su Yuheng got off the carriage, he walked up to the nanny and glanced at her coldly.
"You said your wife asked you to pick me up?"
Mammy said, "Yes, Miss."
"Mother?" Su Yuheng wondered.
Is this the attitude of the nanny next to my mother?
This doesn't seem to be very welcome to her.
She turned to look at Yun Tianhe, the second prince of Qin.
"Second Prince, I'll leave Wanying to you."
"Wanying has come from Dayan, thousands of miles away. Please bear with me, Second Prince."
Yun Tianhe said: "Don't worry, I will treat Wanying with all my heart."
Not far away, Zhou Wanying heard the sound and lifted the curtain of the carriage.
"Princess Li."
Su Yuheng hurried over, reached out and held her wrist, and whispered: "Don't worry, everything will be fine."
Zhou Wanying lowered her voice so that only the two of them could hear, "Princess Li, you must help me leave Qin State, and I want to take these dowries with me."
Su Yuheng nodded: "Don't worry, I will come to see you in two days."
After Su Yuheng finished speaking, he turned around and left, returning to his previous position.
She looked at the two maids, Linglong and Zhuque, beside her, and then at the nanny.
"Take me to see my mother."
The maid nodded and said, "Please come with me, young lady."
The nanny took the three people into a carriage and went straight to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
About half an hour later, we arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Miss, we have arrived at the Prime Minister's residence."
Su Yuheng clenched his hands tightly, unable to hide his excitement at seeing his mother.
After she got off the carriage with Linglong and Zhuque, she saw a beautiful woman standing in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
The woman was about forty years old, but because she took good care of herself, she looked about thirty years old.
The woman was wearing a long Yao-gold dress, an eight-treasure peacock pearl hairpin on her head, a red mole between her eyebrows, and a faint smile at the corner of her lips.
However, there was a strange look in those seemingly gentle eyes.
Su Yuheng's gaze lingered on the woman, and his heart tightened.
She had never seen what her mother looked like in her previous life, she only knew that she looked a bit like her mother.
But the woman in front of me does look a bit like the woman in the portrait.
After she got off the carriage, she was brought to the woman by the nanny.
Su Yuheng was excited and quickly stepped forward to hold the woman's wrist.
"Mother, is it really you?"
"Heng'er finally sees you. Heng'er thought he would never see his mother again in this life."
In an instant, the woman's face froze, and even the nanny beside her showed an embarrassed expression.
The woman raised her lips, reached out and held Su Yuheng's hand in her palm, and said with a smile: "You should call me mother, not mother."
Su Yuheng was stunned when she heard the nanny beside her say, "Miss, your biological mother is not our wife."
"Your mother is now under house arrest and cannot leave this front yard."
In an instant, Su Yuheng loosened his hand, and a feeling of anger and unwillingness surged in his heart.
Before she came, she heard that Qin's Prime Minister Minglang only loved his mother in his life, never married, and had only one concubine in the inner courtyard.
Why is it different from the rumors?
Now, although this so-called lady looks somewhat like his mother, Su Yuheng finds it hard to believe.
My mother was originally the wife of a general from Dayan. Why was she imprisoned in the Prime Minister's Mansion? What qualifications did they have?
Now he is imprisoned in the backyard, without any name or status.
Seeing Su Yuheng standing there in a daze, the woman sneered, "Miss, since you have returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, you should abide by the rules of our Prime Minister's Mansion."
"Although you were born out of wedlock, as your legal wife, I should teach you well in the future."
Su Yuheng sneered: "I was born and raised in Dayan. I know that this is not how you call your mother."
"This Prime Minister's Mansion didn't give me the grace of raising me, so you have no right to let me call you mother."
"You are so brave!" The woman was furious. Just as she was about to take a step forward, Linglong stepped forward to block her.
"Madam, you can't beat our Princess Li. What's more, our Princess Li was personally invited back by the Prime Minister."
Linglong emphasized the word "please".
The woman withdrew her hand and looked at the nanny and several maids beside her.
"Take the young lady to Wutong Garden. When the Prime Minister returns, I will take her to see him."
"Yes, ma'am." The nanny nodded and took Su Yuheng and two personal guards to Wutong Garden in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
