Ruan Xinchen frowned, feeling resentful, "She wants to force her to have a premature birth."
Cui Er shook her head, "I don't know, but your mother was really angry to the point of giving birth prematurely."
Was it because of anger? Considering what the old lady said last time, it was not a premature birth caused by anger.
Mrs. Ruan wanted to irritate her into giving birth prematurely, but unfortunately she managed to hold back.
Seeing that the New Year was approaching, Mrs. Ruan was anxious, so she spent a lot of money to go to Xiangzhou to invite an old midwife to come and induce labor.
At this time, the old lady spoke up at the right time, "I'm not angry, it's...I used some medicine and some method to make the young lady give birth early."
Cui'er seemed to notice the old lady only then.
She looked at her in surprise for a long while before she saw some familiar shadows on that wrinkled face.
"Are you the midwife who delivered my little girl back then?"
The old lady nodded, "Yes, you were the maidservant of the young lady back then. I recognize you." She said enviously, "You have gained a lot of weight, and you look very rich. That's great."
Cui'er's face gradually darkened. "You said that you induced my mother to give birth. What do you mean?"
The old woman said, "It was the eldest lady of that family who asked me to do it. She gave me a piece of gold and asked me to help the young lady to give birth. I didn't know at that time that the eldest lady wanted to kill her, because she told me that it was better to give birth in that month."
Cui Er was shocked. "What?"
She didn't believe anything good about the child. She knew too well the hatred between the eldest and second daughters.
Is it for the good of the children? She really wants them to die.
"Why do you do that?"
The old woman said, "I didn't know why at the beginning, but later when I found out that both the young lady and the young master were dead, I finally understood. I think the eldest lady wanted to kill the young lady at first, and wanted her to die in childbirth, so that there would be two lives. But she didn't expect that I had been a midwife for my whole life, and I also had some experience. Although the child was born prematurely, I still ensured that they were safe."
Cui Er nodded repeatedly, "Yes, mother and daughter are safe. Although it was a premature birth, I suffered a lot, but I gave birth to the child safely. But...but..."
Thinking of what happened later, she couldn't help crying again, "But that night, Mrs. Wang, who was beside the lady, came in with people. They dragged me out without saying a word. I knelt in the snow and heard the screams of the young lady in the room, which lasted for a long time. After they came out, I ran out in panic and saw that the young lady was dead. The bed was covered in blood, and her eyes were wide open. No matter how I called her, she ignored me. She...she died with her eyes open..."
Cui Er was so emotional that she couldn't stop crying.
No one urged her.
Liu An was comforting her.
Ruan Xin came over with the water.
She found that the water in the cup she was holding was shaking, and her face must have looked ugly.
Soon, a handkerchief appeared in front of me.
The hand holding the handkerchief was pale, slender, and had distinct joints. She was very familiar with it.
"Thank you." Ruan Xinchen took the handkerchief and whispered.
She then realized that she was crying too.
After Cui Er calmed down, she continued, "Not long after, the lady came with a group of people, pregnant. When she came in, she ordered me to be arrested. They said I was the one who killed the young lady and the young master. The young master was lying next to me at the time, and I thought he was asleep. I didn't expect that he would also suffer at their hands."
She wiped her tears again and gestured, "He was born prematurely, so small... so small, wrinkled, not as pretty as when you gave birth to him. He was so weak, I don't know how he could survive, he's dead..."
What happened next was similar to what Ruan Xinchen heard later.
Mrs. Ruan insisted that it was Cui'er's poor care that led to the death of the mother and the baby, and she punished her according to the family law, beating her to death and throwing her into a random grave.
Later, it was a heavy rain that woke her and Liu An up from the mass grave.
The two comforted and encouraged each other, and great potential burst out from their bodies, and they crawled out of the mass grave together.
I found a nearby farmer and survived with their help.
After finishing her words, Cui Er turned around and kowtowed to Chu Li, "Your Highness, the King of War, please seek justice for my little girl."
Chu Xuanche was unhappy. "Why ask him for help? Do you know who his princess is?"
Cui Er: “…”
"who?"
"Ruan Yihe."
Ruan Yihe?
Cui'er thought for a while before she remembered that this was the nickname of the eldest daughter of the Ruan family.
She is totally stupid.
His face was pale and he stammered, unable to speak.
Ruan Xinchen glared at Chu Xuanche and said unhappily, "What nonsense are you talking about? You've even scared Aunt Cui."
Chu Xuanche: "What nonsense am I talking about? Isn't his princess consort Ruan Yihe? Isn't Ruan Yihe the biological daughter of your vicious stepmother?"
Ruan Xinchen: “…”
It doesn't seem like he was talking nonsense, but he was deliberately trying to scare people.
Ruan Xinchen explained to Cui'er: "That was a gift of marriage."
Cui Er: "..." She is the princess of another country, are you serious about this, Miss? Will the King of War really help us?
He won't silence us for his princess, will he?
She was terrified.
Not only her, Liu An and Mrs. Wen were also shocked when they learned that Princess Zhan's biological mother was the vicious lady in the story.
If they tell this to the War King, he won't shut them up, right?
What is going on?
"Ahem." Chu Li said, "Ruan Yihe is indeed my princess consort for the time being, but only temporarily. After you go and prove it together and bring her mother to justice, she may not be the princess consort anymore."
It took a while for those who didn't understand what he said to digest it.
Only after digesting it, I understood its deep meaning.
His marriage to the princess was arranged by gift, but he was not satisfied.
So he tried his best to find some dirt on the princess so that he could divorce or divorce her.
So that's how it is.
Seriously, I almost scared them to death.
Liu An said: "Yes, we will definitely testify. May I ask Your Highness, the King of War, what should we do now?"
Chu Li looked at Cui Er and said, "I will have someone write a petition in a while, and you take it to the Kyoto government office to appeal for justice. Since you didn't kill the person, ask the government office to re-investigate the Ruan family case. The rest, leave it to me."
"yes."
Chu Li asked the best lawyer to write the complaint. Ruan Xinchen read the written complaint and found it to be very sharp and to the point.
"My dear, this is good, isn't it? Aunt Cui took this complaint to sue Mrs. Ruan, and she will be in great trouble."
Chu Xuanche glanced at him calmly and said disdainfully: "If we can bring down the powerful with a lawsuit, then all the scholars from ancient times to the present would not have to bang their heads against the pillars to die."
Ruan Xinchen: “…”
"Okay, okay, you're right. Then please be more careful in private. We must win this battle."
"What do I need? Didn't Chu Li order it for you?"
Well……
Dislike, and jealous, this jealous bastard, don't tell him.
