Chapter 187 I Met My Mother
"How dare you!" The first person to get angry was not Prime Minister Ming, but Wang beside him.
"Could it be that what the master said was false? Could it be that he would lie to you? You don't even recognize your own mother now."
As soon as Wang finished speaking, she saw Prime Minister Ming giving her a cold look.
Wang immediately shut up.
Su Yuheng and Minglang had just been recognized as relatives through blood testing, and are now considered the only bloodline in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Compared with a blood and a woman, Wang naturally knew how important Su Yuheng was in Prime Minister Ming's heart.
It was because Prime Minister Ming was ill that he only left behind this one bloodline, and a daughter at that.
Seeing Su Yuheng like this, Prime Minister Ming said, "Are you suspecting your father of lying to you?"
Su Yuheng said, "I don't doubt you, but I just don't feel close to her. My intuition tells me that she is not my mother."
"How can I not be your mother?" The woman stood up from the chair and reached out to support Su Yuheng.
Su Yuheng deliberately moved away.
After seeing this, Prime Minister Ming snorted in his heart.
It seems that nothing can deceive her.
He said, "Do you really want to see your mother?"
Su Yuheng nodded: "I came here this time just for my mother."
Prime Minister Ming said: "It seems that nothing can be hidden from you."
"Indeed, you are now the Princess of Li, so your status is naturally different."
"Your mother is unwell and has caught a cold. If you go to see her, you might get infected."
"After some time, when your mother is well again, I will take you to see her."
"Come here, send the young lady back to the yard."
Two maids walked up to Su Yuheng.
Su Yuheng flicked his sleeves, turned around and left the front hall of the prime minister's residence.
"Master, look at Yuheng's attitude towards you."
"If she knew what that woman looks like now, wouldn't she hate the master?"
"I see this young lady is so beautiful. If she can marry into the Qin royal family, our master will be able to secure his position as prime minister..."
Wang stopped talking and subconsciously looked at Prime Minister Ming's expression.
Prime Minister Ming looked at her coldly and saw that Wang was cautious.
"Go on."
Wang said, "This young lady is the master's only bloodline. She has already married Prince Li of Dayan and will return to Dayan in the future. If she goes back, the master will no longer have any descendants of his own in Bianjing."
"All the dignitaries in the court will laugh at me then."
Prime Minister Ming sighed.
This is also the reason why he asked Yun Tianhe to bring Su Yuheng back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Over the years, she has had wives and concubines in her house, but few children.
The rumors about him were spread all over the place.
Some said he had a hidden illness, others said he was gay. Anyway, the entire city of Bianjing threw the dirtiest water on him.
Now that Su Yuheng has finally come back, he naturally doesn't want to let her go so soon.
He would prefer she stay in Qin, preferably marry a Qin man.
"I understand, but she is now Prince Li's wife, and I can't let her divorce Prince Li."
"Why not?" Wang said
"Master, you'd better think it over carefully." Wang stood up and turned to leave the front hall.
After Su Yuheng returned to Zijing Garden, Zhuque came back.
Zhuque said, "Princess, I have observed over the past two days that the guards change shifts at midnight."
"Midnight?" Su Yuheng frowned.
She looked at Suzaku, "Then tonight at midnight, you will help me go to the Beiyuan Deserted Courtyard."
"Yes, Princess."
The hour of Hai.
After Linglong lit the incense, the maids and nannies in Zijing Garden fell into a deep sleep.
She entered the room and looked at Su Yu
"I guess these people slept until dawn."
Linglong said this and handed a pink shirt to Su Yuheng.
"It was taken off by the maid Chunxiu."
Su Yuheng covered her mouth and chuckled, changed her clothes, and combed her hair into a maid's bun.
"Well done."
It was not until midnight that Zhuque entered the side room.
"Princess, it's time for the shift change. I will assist you in heading to Beiyuan."
Su Yuheng nodded, "Okay, just distract the guards."
The deserted courtyard in Beiyuan was guarded by guards on all four sides. It was midnight and the shift was changing.
Su Yuheng changed into a maid's clothes, picked up the food box, asked Zhuque to lead away the two guards guarding the west side of the deserted courtyard, and then went towards the deserted courtyard.
As soon as I stepped into the deserted courtyard, a sense of desolation hit me.
Wild weeds grew wildly in the yard, sprouting from the cracks in the blue bricks. Some of the weeds had not been trimmed for a long time.
There was a house in the yard with a deep black hole collapsed in the roof and broken tiles scattered around.
The wind blew gently, and the rickety door creaked.
Su Yuheng felt uncomfortable.
My mother's current situation is more like being abandoned.
She held her breath and mustered up the courage to go inside.
The closer I got, the more I heard a cough.
The sound became more intense as she got closer.
When he reached the front of the house, Su Yuheng carefully pushed open the door.
Facing him was a damaged eight-immortals table. Half a broken brick was placed under one of the legs, and the tabletop was covered with deep knife marks.
A strong musty smell filled the air, carrying with it the scent of dust and rotten wood, pressing heavily into the lungs.
As soon as she entered, she felt a little uncomfortable in her throat and couldn't help coughing twice.
A weak voice came from inside.
"who?"
"It's me." Su Yuheng walked in and placed the food box on the eight-immortal table.
After lighting the candles, he quickly opened all the surrounding windows.
The smell in the house is really bad.
The house is damp and cold. It would be strange if you don't get sick in this place.
She didn't expect that her mother was living in such a place now. No wonder she caught a cold.
"Who are you?" the woman behind the bed curtain asked in a low voice.
Su Yuheng's body stiffened. He looked towards the bed and saw the woman struggling to get up.
She slowly approached the bed and saw a woman who was about forty years old.
The woman had white hair on her temples and her eyes were hollow and lifeless.
Although her skin was fair and radiant, she looked very weak because she was too thin.
Although she is old, one can still vaguely see that her facial features are very delicate.
It can be seen that she was a stunning beauty when she was young.
"Who are you? Why aren't you talking?"
The woman stood up in the dark and reached forward.
She felt a warm body.
The sound of sobbing could be heard faintly, and the woman frowned slightly.
She said weakly, "Are you crying?"
"Little girl, were the other maids in the mansion bullying you?"
Su Yuheng bit his lip, not daring to look at the woman's face again.
Before she came to Qin, she had never imagined that her mother's life was so miserable.
Her voice choked: "No."
The woman frowned: "Why? Why are you crying?"
Su Yuheng said: "Nothing."
She turned her face away, but the woman reached out her hand tentatively.
She didn't hide.
The woman touched her cheek and felt warm tears. She said distressedly, "Silly child, why are you crying?"
"How old are you this year?"
Su Yuheng bit her lip and said, "Two months away, I'll be seventeen."
