Princess Zhaoyang and her entourage were invited into the He family's residence.
Mr. He said very modestly.
"My humble abode is simple and unadorned; I hope Your Highness will not find it offensive."
"Nowhere," Princess Zhaoyang said calmly.
At her age, she no longer has any desire for material things.
"Qiu Niang is my daughter."
"She will still be your daughter."
"I have something I'd like to ask Mr. He about."
"No, no, Your Highness, please speak freely." Old Master He was apprehensive.
Princess Zhaoyang is taking him way too seriously.
"That's right, I want Qiu Niang to be recognized as a member of her family."
"Recognize your ancestors and return to your roots?" Old Master He looked completely bewildered.
"Recognizing one's ancestors?" Shi Yu's sweet, childlike voice echoed in everyone's minds.
Does my mother still have a father?
Gua66: [Yuyu, look at what you're saying! If your mother didn't have a biological father, how was she born?]
Humans in this era do not yet possess the remarkable ability to reproduce asexually.
Shi Yu realized, "That's true."
Who is my mother's biological father?
My maternal grandmother, Zhaoyang, is of extraordinary status; the man she chose must also be from a prominent family.
[Hey, go search it up, you might find a ton of juicy gossip.]
Shi Yu couldn't help but get excited when the topic of gossip came up.
Has she not been keeping up with the latest gossip lately?
Gua66, [Yuyu, what are you waiting for?]
[I've got it! Yu Yu, Princess Zhaoyang's deceased husband was Song Ziqing, the eldest son of the Song family.]
After Song Ziqing's death, Emperor Tai'an ascended the throne and specially bestowed a title upon Song Ziqing's younger brother, Song Yuqing.
Shi Yu, [Title? What title?]
Melon 66, [Jade-faced Marquis].
Shi Yu: [Jade-Faced Marquis? Is this Song Yuqing really that good-looking?]
Gua66, [He was quite flamboyant-looking when he was young.]
However, in his younger days, he also pursued Princess Zhaoyang.
However, Princess Zhaoyang found her too flashy and instead fell in love at first sight with her steady and taciturn eldest son, Song Ziqing.
Shi Yu's sweet, childlike voice couldn't help but sigh, "Wow, older people also have such romantic and complex feelings!"
Princess Zhaoyang: An elderly person?
She's old now, but she was young once too.
This little granddaughter of mine suddenly seems a bit worrisome.
Shi Yu urged, "Then tell me quickly, what's the situation with the Song family?"
[So that my mother won't be bullied when she goes back.]
Hearing this, the He family members also quietly pricked up their ears.
They also wanted to know in advance.
【Alright, Yuyu, I'll tell you now.】Gua66's voice became more and more excited as she spoke.
This Song Yuqing, also known as the Jade-Faced Marquis, married a total of eight wives.
Moreover, all her children were daughters; she didn't have a single son.
Although he is now over fifty years old, he is still a regular at brothels.
He has absolutely no skills; he just spends his days eating, drinking, and having fun outside because he's Princess Zhaoyang's brother-in-law.
That made him universally disliked and rejected by everyone in the capital.
But there's just nothing we can do about him.
Princess Zhaoyang, who was standing to the side, frowned slightly as she listened.
Is Song Yuqing really that kind of person?
How come she's never heard of it?
Shi Yu: [The Song family is in such a mess! Does my maternal grandmother, Zhaoyang, know about this?]
Gua66, [probably doesn't know.]
[Song Yuqing is a very good actress.]
Whenever he ran out of money, he would take his daughter to the palace to express his longing for his elder brother to Princess Zhaoyang and the emperor.
Both the Emperor and Princess Zhaoyang felt indebted to the Song family, and each time they bestowed upon him large amounts of gold and silver treasures.
【Yuyu, you also saw your maternal grandmother Zhaoyang's palace last night.】
Even Song Yuqing's concubine's room is more luxurious than your maternal grandmother Zhaoyang's room.
How dare you lie to her!
Princess Zhaoyang, who was eavesdropping on Shi Yu and Gua 66's thoughts, lowered her eyes slightly.
The others felt the air freeze and silently held their breath.
Shi Yu cursed, "This person is absolutely wicked."
[They actually dared to use the name of a dead person to swindle money.]
Gua66, [Oh, Yuyu, I found a little more here.]
Shi Yu, [Huh?]
[This Lord Song was there when we caused trouble at the brothel last time.]
He was scared by you and Little Green and Little Blue last time, and he hasn't dared to go out for several days now, staying home taking medicine to recover.
[Hehehehe...] Shi Yu couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.
Wow, there was actually this whole thing going on in the middle.
【Then let's sneak off on Little Green and Little Blue later and take a stroll around Lord Song's mansion to scare him.】
Gua66 sounded hesitant. [Yuyu, are you sure you can leave?]
Shi Yu's sweet, childlike voice held a strange confidence: "If daytime doesn't work, then I'll do it at night. Anyway, as long as I can scare people and get revenge for Grandma Zhaoyang, that's enough."
Princess Zhaoyang...
Princess Zhaoyang was suddenly very moved.
For decades, apart from her deceased husband Song Ziqing, no one has ever spoken up for her.
Princess Zhaoyang made an agreement with the He family that she would take He Qiuniang to the Song family to acknowledge her ancestors three days later.
That evening, Princess Zhaoyang did not return to the palace, but instead went home with He Qiuniang.
Princess Zhaoyang looked at the former Shi family and the current He family, and her eyes immediately welled up with tears.
Her daughter is suffering.
