"Don't be angry, there's nothing to be angry about. Feifei is my daughter-in-law and a member of our Cheng family. Who can take her away? What I want to know is whether the prince's illness can be cured. If he can't be cured, then the second prince will become the crown prince. You are so close to the emperor, you should know that, right?"
Cheng Shun calmed down his brother and asked.
"Don't shout. His Majesty is still young, not old at all. When I first met him, he was only fifteen. Seven years younger than you."
Cheng Kang glared at his brother.
"Alright! Then tell me, is it possible for that silly Second Prince to become the Crown Prince?"
Cheng Shun asked again.
"Well... His Majesty is in his prime, with four sons. The eldest, the Crown Prince, is 22, and the youngest, the Ninth Prince, is only six. To be disrespectful, even if the Crown Prince is gone, it would be impossible for the Second Prince to become the Crown Prince right away. So, Shunzi, don't worry. With me as your uncle and Old Ji's status, we can bring Feifei back immediately!"
Cheng Kang said.
"It's better to discuss this matter with my in-laws."
Cheng Shun thought for a moment and said.
"What are you discussing? I know Old Ji best. I spent a few years in Jiangnan, and I know him well. He has an even hotter temper than I do. If it weren't for the pressure from the Hou Mansion, how could he have let Feifei feign illness?"
Cheng Kang said anxiously.
"Oh! Let's not talk about this for now. The sun is setting. Come on, I'll take you to the city to taste Awen and Pangya's cooking!"
Cheng Shun stood up, dusted himself off, and said.
"Aren't they moving today? Why do they still need to earn money? Why are they working so hard?"
Cheng Kang also stood up and asked.
He also knew that even if he wanted to bring Ji Feifei back, it would not be a quick thing. He had to first go to the emperor to make peace and complain, and then meet with General Ji to see how to make the matter public.
After all, Ji Feifei ran away from her marriage and then met Cheng Wu.
No matter how good the emperor is to him, the second prince is still the emperor's son, right? He should be given some face.
"Fat girl likes money. Besides, some guys in the city like to come to our house for free meals even though they can't get any. They are so shameless."
Cheng Shundao.
"Then I have to go and try my niece's cooking. Shunzi, where does that Mo kid come from? They say he only has one father, who died five years ago. Where is their ancestral home? Why haven't I heard of anyone with the last name Mo in the next village before?"
Speaking of Cheng Yue, Cheng Kang thought of mountains and rivers again.
He always felt that the mountains and rivers were too similar to that person, and he felt a little unsure and wanted to ask.
"Old Mo is younger than me. He's said to be from Jiangnan. During those years when pirates were rampaging along the coast, his family was destroyed, and he fled to our area with his infant child. He's been living here for decades. When his child grew up and reached marriageable age, he couldn't sit still and went hunting in the mountains. Oh no, he was killed by a big cat. It's said that only one leg was left. We recognized him by the shoes he was wearing and the tools he was carrying! Alas... But we watched Shanshui grow up. He's a good boy. I feel very relieved to let Fatty marry him."
Cheng Shun briefly explained the origins of the Mo family father and son.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with this story. Twenty years ago, when pirates were rampant, many villages in the south of the Yangtze River were persecuted.
