After staying in Prince Gong's mansion for a few days, Cui Yu bid farewell to Prince Gong's family.

Of course, I wanted to leave the capital, but I just thought it was nice to live in their house.

The Cui family has their own property in the capital, which can be moved in just by having someone clean it up.

Prince Gong also knew about this, so he just tried to keep him symbolically.

On the day he moved out, Ruan Xinchen ordered his servants to help him move his things, and finally, he stopped in front of Cui Yu.

"Fifth uncle, I'll trouble you with the rest."

"Well, don't worry, I've already sent the letter back, and I'm sure there will be a response soon."

Ruan Xinchen watched him leave.

After he left, Chu Xuanche asked, "Are you sure you can find out your brother's whereabouts by forcing her into a desperate situation?"

Ruan Xinchen shook her head. "That's for sure, but she still has hope, so she dares to challenge Ruan Hong. To put it another way, no matter what she says, I will force her into a desperate situation."

"Well, we have to start with her two children."

"Yes, Ruan Hong decided to do it himself."

Chu Xuanche was a little surprised. How could he have the heart to do that?

Chu Xuanche has been very idle recently. Every day he either recites scriptures or meditates under the sandalwood.

Day by day, Ruan Xinchen felt very upset.

What happened to him?

If this continues, will he become a monk in the future?

Caiyu also thought so, and even said to Ruan Xinchen in private: "Is the prince really planning to become a monk?"

Ruan Xinchen glanced at the person sitting quietly in the room and wondered who would know.

It is going to rain, my mother is going to get married, and the prince is going to become a monk.

If that day really comes, she won't be able to do anything.

"Miss, what should we do? What if the prince really..."

"Shh, let's not talk about this anymore. If this day really comes, the ones who will be anxious are the prince and princess."

Caiyu nodded, "That's true."

Ruan Xinchen was more inclined to believe that he just wanted to calm down.

That day, Ruan Xinchen took Cui'er out shopping.

Her husband had finished his business in the capital, and they were planning to go back. Before leaving, Ruan Xinchen planned to take her for a walk to see what she could buy for her to take back, as she had several children at home.

It is said that there are two sons and a daughter.

Just prepare the inkstone and ink for the boy.

The things that girls liked in this era were also very simple, just some CCTV rouge and powder, as well as jewelry and so on.

In order to learn about the northern and southern crafts, Ruan Xinchen took Cui'er to the store in Beijing that best represented northern craftsmanship to select jewelry. After it was made, they had someone send it back to the palace.

Then I took her to a nearby ink shop to buy some ink.

As soon as I entered the store, I heard Ruan Ziyi talking to someone.

Ruan Xinchen frowned slightly. She didn't like Ruan Yihe, but she also liked Ruan Ziyi.

My good mood was ruined because of meeting Ruan Ziyi.

Forget it, just buy something and leave quickly.

"Boss, bring me some of your best cigarettes."

"Hey, wait a moment."

Ruan Ziyi turned around when he heard her voice and asked, "Why are you here?"

Ruan Xinchen said calmly: "Can I stay here?"

"Humph, it's you who has caused my mother so much harm."

Ruan Xinchen raised an eyebrow, "Oh, you know?"

Ruan Ziyi: “…” Originally he didn’t know, but they had kept it a secret from him about such a big thing happening at home.

But a few days ago, his father suddenly sent someone to arrange for him to take a leave of absence from school and bring him back. Only then did he realize how big a thing had happened at home.

"Your mother has been dead for so many years, why are you still holding on to her? Why do you want to make everyone in the family in turmoil? Now your parents are fighting over you, you are happy, right?"

He roared with his duck voice and everyone around him looked at him.

Ruan Xinchen smiled. She was still worrying about how to make these things public.

This, if she is asked to come forward, there will be a fool who can do it.

Very good, I am a boy who is afraid of everything.

Very stupid and brainless.

"Your mother has done such vicious things, are you afraid of being found out?"

"you……"

"Hmph, there's a saying that goes 'paper can hold back fire', and there's another saying that goes 'if you don't want people to know, you better not do it yourself'. If you're afraid of being known, how about you ask her why she did it?"

Everyone looked at them curiously and whispered to each other.

"Who are these two people?"

"This young man is the son of Lord Ruan. The girl doesn't know him."

The people who bought ink were all men, so it was normal for them to know Ruan Xinchen.

A young man nearby tugged at Ruan Ziyi's sleeve and whispered, "Is this your sister? Your second sister?"

Ruan Ziyi pulled out his sleeves and glared at him.

The sound was loud or soft, and the people around him became even more confused after hearing it.

Since you are siblings, why is it your mother and my mother?

"What are they talking about?"

"Oh my." An insider said, "This sister is a concubine's daughter."

So that's how it is, a quarrel between wives and concubines? Someone was killed?

Listening to the noises around him, Ruan Ziyi blushed and finally realized that he was in trouble.

"Humph, you want to slander me? It was obviously your mother who bullied the servants and was retaliated against. It has nothing to do with my mother."

Ruan Xinchen crossed his arms and said, "Imitating my mother's handwriting to write a letter to my father has nothing to do with her?"

Ruan Ziyi: “…”

"Imitating my mother's handwriting to write a letter to the Cui family has nothing to do with her?"

The young man was not good at speaking to begin with, and was rendered speechless by Ruan Xinchen's words.

"She admitted it herself. She just wanted to destroy her own sister, so she drugged her own sister and husband and forced her to stay in the Ruan family as a concubine. What? This has nothing to do with her?"

what?

The crowd was in an uproar.

What shocking things did they hear?

The discussions nearby became louder, with everyone asking Ruan Xinchen questions about all sorts of things.

It seems that men also like to gossip.

Ruan Xinchen didn't reply at all, just looked at Ruan Ziyi.

Ruan Ziyi's face flushed red, and he spoke hesitantly.

Cui'er burst into tears.

She is an emotional person, maybe too smart and timid, but she has well-developed tear glands.

She wiped her tears with a handkerchief, crying and saying, "My poor young lady, your husband was taken away by your elder sister, and you were plotted to be my concubine. Your elder sister killed her, and after she died, her children were stolen away."

Then someone asked her what was going on?

Cui'er did not hide anything and told the whole story.

Since it had come to this, she was not afraid of embarrassing herself by telling others that she had messaged with a strange man.

From delivering the message to having her own sister impersonate her, to going to the capital to look for her, to being drugged and framed by her own sister when she was about to find her... to having her child induced to give birth, to having her child finally born, to having her child mutilated, to having her child stolen after her death, etc... she told him everything.

The people around were shocked when they heard this.

Another person who was equally shocked was Ruan Ziyi.

Ruan Xinchen looked at his expression, he seemed about to break down.

Cui Er was still talking, and Ruan Ziyi finally stopped talking. He pushed her away and said, "Shut up, shut up. It's possible that my mother is such a person. You bitch, you are the one who slandered her."
