Chapter 148: Never Contact Each Other Until Death
He could ignore the death of Prince Jing, who was a traitor, but if the Queen Mother died, it would disrupt his plan.
At least within three years.
He can't get married!
Although everything that is happening right now is under the control of the Prince's Mansion, it is too sensational, causing a huge uproar not only among the people but also in the court.
As soon as the court officials stepped into the hall.
They would remember the guards holding heads in their hands, some looking terrified, some ferocious, and some covered in blood, as they walked past them one by one.
They were forced to watch the entire thriller.
Now.
As long as the prince's cold eyes are on him.
Their whole bodies would tense up, and they would feel terrified and uneasy, always wondering if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was thinking about when it would be appropriate to chop off their heads.
This matter.
The prince was ruthless and killed countless people.
This made his position in the court suddenly as solid as a rock, and no one dared to shake it.
There are even several princes who have submitted petitions, hoping to take their mothers back to their fiefdoms. They guarantee that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can send ministers to check their accounts and monitor them at any time. They will only be idle princes in this life and will never have any second thoughts.
The news that the mountains in Jiangzhou had collapsed and that the city was no longer affected by floods spread widely among the people.
Everyone knows that it was the credit of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Chu Jiuning.
Even heard.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince revealed his true identity, and many people saw a real dragon.
The true dragon and the goddess.
They are indeed the best couple in the world.
For a while.
There are rumors that.
No wonder Chu Jiuning ran into problems when she married into the Song Mansion, because the Song Mansion simply couldn't afford such a goddess.
The only right thing to do is to marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
When Chu Jiuning heard the news, she was soaking in the hot spring. After being tired for such a long time, she needed to have a good rest and nourish herself.
With a helpless smile, she climbed out of the hot spring and asked Amber while wiping herself.
"Is cousin feeling better today?"
Wuyou is back and has been living in the Chu Mansion for the past few days. His broken leg has been knocked out, and after it was reattached, he has to keep an eye on him all the time, for fear that Tianzi will have a high fever and not be able to survive.
"Much better. I woke up an hour earlier than before. I feel much more energetic and my face isn't so pale anymore."
Amber stepped forward to serve.
"Doctor Wuyou said that his body was destroyed like that by someone else. He must have suffered a lot over the years."
Listen to this.
There were some redness in Chu Jiuning's eyes. After tidying up, she walked towards Mingxin Courtyard.
This is a courtyard specially built for Chang Tianzi to live in. It has good sunlight, is spacious, and has many flowers and beautiful scenery. Thinking about him living there will make him feel better.
Old Master Chu and Chu Jiuning would go over to spend an hour with him every day, chatting with him about this and that, which enriched his life.
If one has concerns in his heart, he will naturally worry, and if he worries, he will want to survive.
News came from Jiangzhou that the Chang Mansion had already hired someone, and would repair it for her according to Chu Jiuning's drawings, so they didn't have to worry.
When he stepped into the wing room of Mingxin Courtyard, Wuyou had just finished acupuncture and the maid was wiping the sweat off Chang Tianzi's forehead.
"Worry-free."
Chu Jiuning walked forward to greet him with a smile, then sat down on the edge of the bed and held Chang Tianzi's hand again.
"How's today compared to yesterday?"
Chang Tianzi was about to write on Chu Jiuning's palm when Wuyou smiled.
"Be brave and test your voice. Practice slowly and you will be able to speak again."
Shock and embarrassment flashed across Chang Tianzi's eyes, and Chu Jiuning patted his hands.
"It's okay, take your time, there's still plenty of time."
Chang Tianzi nodded slightly and then wrote.
"Better than yesterday, better every day."
Chu Jiuning was immediately satisfied and turned to talk to Wuyou.
"How about we have hot pot today?"
It is a wonderful thing to cook a hot pot in winter and enjoy a hearty meal. Chang Tianzi listened with a hint of envy in his eyes. He hasn't had such a lively and warm life for many years. Sometimes when he opened his eyes in sleep, he would think for a long time whether it was a dream or reality.
"OK."
Wuyou loves hotpot the most. You can put all kinds of your favorite dishes in it, and the aroma is so fragrant.
"Well, Tianzi can also try to eat a little bit, as long as it's not spicy."
"Then let's make a shabu-shabu hotpot, cousin. Will it be served here?"
Chu Jiuning knew that he was so miserable that he was afraid even when he opened his eyes. He liked the hustle and bustle and liked to have people around him all the time.
"Hmm."
Chang Tianzi's eyes lit up and he nodded quickly.
He originally wanted to ask them to put it here, but he was afraid that they would think he was a patient and it would affect their mood for eating.
Then.
Everyone prepared happily. Chang Tianzi half-lying down, leaning against the soft cushion, watching everyone busying around, talking and laughing. It seemed as if the previous haze had passed, and the dead-wood-like eyes finally gradually regained their vitality.
When the old man and Madam Hong heard that they were about to hit the pot, they also stood up.
Step out of the yard.
The old man looked at the gloomy sky and the cold wind.
"It's all in the past. When spring arrives next year and the flowers bloom, we'll have to bury Youyi and the others. They've been trapped in the ice for over a decade, and that must be tough."
"Yes, it's been more than ten years, and I can still find it, old man. Actually, it can be considered another kind of blessing."
Old Master Chu listened and nodded.
yes.
How many people leave home and never return, and can never be found.
"Never mind. It's a done deal, and revenge has been taken. We should be happy and start over."
"The old man is right. Our young lady is not young anymore. It's time for her to get engaged. We should be happy and not let her worry."
That makes sense.
After hearing this, Old Master Chu straightened his back and put away his previous sadness. The two of them talked all the way as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stepped into Mingxin Courtyard.
The compartment door was open.
It was lively inside with people talking and laughing.
Chang Tianzi leaned on the bed, watching them coming and going with curious eyes.
It had been too many years since he had seen the warmth and coldness of human nature, too many years since he had seen a smiling face, and even more so, too many years since he had seen such a warm scene.
The aroma of food, the friendly laughter, and the figures constantly swaying in front of my eyes. The colors in front of me are vivid, red and green.
Unlike before, all he saw was gray and blood-red, and all he smelled was stinky and rotten.
"very nice."
Chang Tianzi said in his heart.
"Cousin, let me feed you a little soup."
Chu Jiuning sat beside him holding the soup, her brows soft and her movements light.
"This is a chicken broth base. You can drink some. And this is clear broth, not spicy."
Chang Tianzi drank it in small sips and actually drank half a bowl. Then Amber fed him some minced meat porridge and a little bit of vegetables, and then he tried to eat two thin slices of venison.
My appetite is better than yesterday.
Seeing that they were eating enthusiastically, Chang Tianzi pointed at the pastries on the table and tried to speak.
“Cake… cake…”
"kindness?"
When Mingtang heard him speak, he stood up in surprise and pointed at the pastries on the table.
"Would you like some cakes, young master?"
"right."
Chang Tianzi's good face suddenly turned rosy. Mingtang picked out a few cakes, cut them into small pieces, and fed them into his mouth little by little, wiping the corners of his lips with a handkerchief from time to time.
Chang Tianzi was a little uncomfortable with being served, so he shook his head and opened his mouth for a long time before speaking.
"I'll do it."
There were too many words for him to express at once, but after one or two words, he found that he could indeed do it.
This is something that is very exciting and encouraging to him.
Although my voice is very hoarse and even my speech is a little unclear, it's fine anyway.
"It's okay, cousin. When you feel better, I'll let you do it yourself."
Chu Jiuning turned her head and looked at Amber. Amber smiled and turned to go out. When she came back in, she brought in a scroll and handed it to Chang Tianzi.
Mingtang took it.
Open.
Then he turned to look at Chang Tianzi. Chang Tianzi also saw it and was also shocked.
The boy in the portrait is handsome and clean, familiar yet strange.
Chu Jiuning held his hand and said.
"I've discussed this with Wuyou. Even if your face can't fully recover, it will be more than half healed. So starting next month, we'll try to treat your face and remove any scars on your body that can be removed. We'll have a dedicated doctor, maids, and nannies to follow you and take care of you. We'll try to get you 80% back within three years."
"Cousin, you must have confidence in yourself and in us."
Although Wuyou said that his health might not be a sign of longevity, he would still earn every day he lived.
No matter how bad the days in the future are, they will not be as bitter as before. No matter how painful the days in the future are, they will not be as painful as before.
"well."
Chang Tianzi held Chu Jiuning's hand tightly, smiled and agreed with tears in his eyes.
I am really happy today.
Eat well, sleep soundly, hear the laughter of loved ones, and see kind people.
"Cousin, I've also sent people to look for your adoptive parents. If they're found, I'll bring them over and reunite them with you."
then.
After it was discovered that he was the son of the Chang family, his adoptive parents immediately moved with their family. However, for their safety, Chang Tianzi pretended to fall into the river and died, completely cutting off contact with them.
at the moment.
It is really unknown where they are hiding or whether they are still alive.
If Jiu Ning could help find them, let him say sorry in person and kowtow to make amends, he would really be willing to do so.
"Hope... to... live."
He used a lot of effort to say these four words. When guilt and longing overflowed, his emotions became so excited that his hands trembled a little. Chu Jiuning gently stroked the back of his hand.
"They are good people, and good things will surely happen to them. And when you created the illusion that they had killed you, it gave them a lot of hope."
Chang Tianzi nodded slightly and turned to look at the beautiful scenery outside the window.
If they were still alive, would they also have a head full of white hair like Old Master Chu?
The dark clouds in the sky gradually dissipated, and the window suddenly became bright, making the people at the table look even more vivid. Chang Tianzi looked at them with hope in his eyes.
Everything is moving in the right direction.
After drinking the medicine.
Chang Tianzi was too tired and fell asleep immediately.
The maids came in to clean up. Chu Jiuning opened the window to ventilate the room, and placed a pot of soothing and fragrant flowers on the table. Then everyone slowly left.
Night fell.
Amber said Cheng Yanzhi is here.
Chu Jiuning hurriedly sent someone to welcome him in.
After not seeing each other for a while, Chu Jiuning felt that Cheng Yanzhi had lost weight.
Cheng Yanzhi smiled at her and placed a stack of things in his arms in front of her.
"Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission."
A lot of evidence about Lu Yungui's crimes had been found, and Cheng Yanzhi felt that it was enough to kill him.
"By the way, I went to see Brother He Ming."
He had been to Yang's house before and had a detailed discussion with Yang Heming.
Yang Heming has made great contributions this time, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has transferred him to the Zhanshi Mansion. From now on, he will be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's man.
Yang Heming is the prince's man, so the Cheng family naturally has to take sides.
Right now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is unstoppable and no one can touch him at all, so there is nothing wrong with choosing His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Chu Jiuning read through the items one by one and finally took out a book.
“This one.”
Cheng Yanzhi took a look and saw that it was about Lu Yungui indulging in sensual pleasures in the mansion.
When Cheng Yanzhi was following Lu Yungui, he heard him talking proudly about his fish pond when he was drunk. He heard that there were man-eating fish in it.
He checked.
More than a dozen maids would come into Lu Yungui's mansion every month, but no one would ever leave. If someone died, they would be buried directly in the mansion.
"Go to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince later and give him this copy. Tell him I chose it."
"in addition……"
Chu Jiuning thought about it.
Prince An has been staying in the house she gave him, and he and the princess have never left the house.
The prince did not punish them, and the emperor did not take away his title, just letting them be.
"I bribed the people around Lü Fuyu to tell her about Prince An's recent situation and persuade her to hold a banquet. I wanted to invite Prince An, but I also wanted to let Lü Fuyu know that Prince An would not go if I was not invited, so the invitation had to be sent to me."
"These are easy to handle."
Cheng Yanzhi was full of energy at the moment. He was very happy to work for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Chu Jiuning.
When the time comes.
If His Highness is happy and rewards him with a position, then won’t he have a regular position?
"Jiu Ning, my mother likes to eat cakes from Jiangnan. My family's cooking is not very good. Can you make some for me?"
"certainly."
Chu Jiuning's eyebrows curved slightly, and she hurriedly asked someone to grab the chef and said that someone wanted to eat the pastries he made and asked him to help her for a while.
Cheng Yanzhi smiled happily when he heard this, and when Nanny Hong handed four large boxes of cakes to him, he said in surprise.
"It's still hot. I have to go back to my mother quickly. Jiu Ning, thank you very much."
Seeing how filial he was, Chu Jiuning liked the young man even more, so she personally sent him out.
Cheng Yanzhi first hurriedly delivered the pastries to his mother, then went to the Prince's Mansion. When it was almost midnight, he sent someone to deliver a message to the Chu Mansion.
Chu Jiuning waited until she received his letter before she could go to bed peacefully.
Day 3.
The mansion received the invitation from the Lu Mansion.
Chu Jiuning was sitting in the waterside pavilion admiring the fish and was slightly startled when she saw the post.
After returning to Beijing.
She has not met Prince An yet.
Strictly speaking.
They are already enemies.
Princess Jing sent someone to tell her a message.
She said.
In this life, she doesn't want to see Chu Jiuning again. She doesn't hate Chu Jiuning, but she doesn't like Chu Jiuning either.
They won't do anything to Chu Jiuning.
But I don’t want to have any further contact.
She threatened to commit suicide and forced Prince An not to see Chu Jiuning.
The fiefdom has been returned to the emperor.
So they can only live in the capital for now, but Princess Jing hopes that they can live without any contact with each other until they die.
at this point.
Chu Jiuning didn't care.
The great revenge was achieved, his parents were buried, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's position is now secure.
If she wants to leave, she can leave at any time. By then, we will never see each other again.
