Chapter 87 Can I exchange it back?
When Zou's mother heard this, her mind exploded with a buzzing sound.
“No, no…”
"What did you say?" Chu Zhen looked at her at that time, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.
In her opinion, Mother Zou would not dare to express such an opinion, and she might have been instructed to do so.
Mother Zou took a deep breath and grabbed Cheng Nianying's forearm, drawing strength from it.
So he spoke again: "Madam, this matter, this matter must not be so reckless... Madam, you don't know that the Danshuo County King has a sharp eye. Recently, we have been living a very cautious life in the mansion, fearing that we would be caught in the slightest mistake."
Mother Zou quickly added, "We need to think long-term."
It’s not that I have to stop it!
Chu Zhen turned her gaze back to Cheng Nianying and asked, "What do you think? Mother will listen to you."
Cheng Nianying asked first: "Where's my... 'sister'? Is she okay?"
Chu Zhen noticed the awkwardness in her address, but pretended not to notice the detail. She cheered up and said with a smile, "Thanks to you, she..."
Chu Zhen didn't finish her words.
The maid behind her replied, "I'm fine."
The voice was hurried and choked.
Chu Zhen paused for a moment, grabbed the maid's wrist, and whispered, "She..."
Chu Zhen still couldn't finish her words this time.
Cheng Nianying stood up, put one hand on the side of the maid's face, and felt carefully, and felt the protruding skin seam.
"Disguised?" Cheng Nianying asked.
Chu Zhen finally answered, "Yes, I specially invited a master from the folk Eight Gates."
The so-called eight gates refer to shock, fatigue, floating, book, wind, fire, title, and request, which are the eight means to make a living in the world.
Among them were fortune tellers, jugglers and gamblers, itinerant doctors, and even counterfeiters and swindlers...
Cheng Nianying had seen a lot in the past.
It can be said that the method used to make Qin Yu easy was a bit rough and the stitching was not very beautiful.
"This is what mother thinks." Chu Zhen continued, "It would be strange to change her back suddenly. Why not let Yurong stay with you first and act as your maid for a few days. Gradually, she will understand the prince's temperament and know what you were like in the past..."
"Change it back this way so that nothing will be revealed."
Chu Zhen asked again: "What do you think?"
Cheng Nianying first asked Qin Yurong: "Have you cried?"
These four words triggered Qin Yurong's collapse again. She pinched her palms, trembled all over, and tears were about to burst out again.
"Is it for that man?"
Qin Yurong immediately noticed that Cheng Nianying's tone was cold, and that chill instantly sealed away her sadness.
So she just nodded blankly.
Chu Zhen's expression was about to break. She pulled Cheng Nianying's sleeve and said, "Stop talking."
What does she want to do!
Chu Zhen gritted her teeth secretly.
Just as Chu Zhen and her daughter were experiencing a sudden surge of emotions, Cheng Nianying said lightly, "That man is not the prince."
"What?" Chu Zhen's expression froze.
Qin Yurong's tears were also stuck in the corners of her eyes: "What did you say? What are you talking about? You..."
"Didn't that man call himself the prince to you? He calls himself that to others, too."
"Someone else? Another woman? Who is it?" Qin Yurong took a step forward excitedly and grabbed Cheng Nianying's hand.
Cheng Nianying hissed in pain.
Mother Zou quickly squeezed over and pushed the person away: "The princess's hand is injured, you have to be careful!"
Qin Yurong was at a loss and withdrew her hand, tears rolling down her cheeks: "I, I didn't mean to do that. I didn't know you were injured..."
Chu Zhen's chest heaved as she suppressed her unhappiness.
Did Mother Zou really treat her like a princess? She couldn't tell the difference between master and servant!
Cheng Nianying turned her wrist at this moment and said in surprise: "You only care about whether there are other women?"
Qin Yurong was stunned by her question, and then asked back: "Shouldn't you care? If the man you love has another woman, wouldn't you feel bad?"
"I don't have a man I love." Cheng Nianying shook her head. "Even if I did, now that I know he has another woman and is full of lies, I should have withdrawn from him in time."
Qin Yurong said excitedly: "You don't understand, you..."
Chu Zhen interrupted unbearably: "Enough!"
Qin Yurong was really shocked by this shout. She wiped her eyes and stopped arguing with Cheng Nianying.
Chu Zhen turned her head and asked softly, "Tell me, mother, you said you weren't the crown prince. What's going on?"
"This man has been flirting with many people and even left the title of Crown Prince behind. He has been planning this for a long time, all to destabilize the Crown Prince's position. My sister... is just one of the pawns."
How could Qin Yurong accept this?
"No, impossible, impossible!" Qin Yurong's expression froze at first, and then cracked little by little.
She trembled and shook her head, her legs went weak and she fell to the ground.
Chu Zhen had to shout again: "Shut up! Do you remember where we are? Do you want your parents to die?"
Qin Yurong's shoulders trembled helplessly, and her voice suddenly turned into low sobs.
Chu Zhen was not in a much better condition at this time.
This news was like a slap in the face to her.
I used to think that as the emperor's son, if I could keep this favor, I would be able to rise to the top and become a phoenix in the future!
Turns out it was a scam from the beginning?
No...no.
"Where did you get the evidence?" Chu Zhen asked.
Cheng Nianying glanced at Qin Yurong, who was almost collapsed, and did not say that she had stabbed her, so as to avoid making her "sister" hate her.
She said, "I marked him."
Chu Zhen held on to the armrests of the chair and remained silent for a long time.
Until there were footsteps approaching outside the door, it was a maid who came to ask: "Princess, can you invite the Marquis' wife to have lunch?"
Cheng Nianying responded: "Well, stay and have dinner together."
The maid replied "yes" and walked away.
Chu Zhen finally found her voice: "There's no point in saying this right now. You have to keep it a secret for your sister, understand?"
"He's not the crown prince, he's still alive and well. I'm just afraid he'll reveal this one day..."
"Then what do you do?"
"Kill him."
This was the first time Chu Zhen faced her "daughter" calmly when she said this.
The calmness was somewhat shocking.
"You..." Chu Zhen was speechless.
"If you don't make a decision when you should, you will suffer the consequences." Cheng Nianying continued to advise.
Qin Yurong was so devastated that she couldn't think anymore, and she didn't jump out to object at this time.
Chu Zhen struggled to digest these few words, then looked at Cheng Nianying... Compared to Yurong, she looked more like her daughter.
But fake is fake. It can fool people temporarily, but not forever.
No matter how unpromising Yurong is, she is still our own flesh and blood.
"I will discuss this matter with your father..." Chu Zhen hesitated.
Cheng Nianying nodded: "This fight involves a lot of people, so we need to be careful and act in time."
Chu Zhen gave her an even more strange look.
How long had it been? How could she still speak like a servant? She even knew about the conflict involved?
Cheng Nianying pinched her fingertips at this time and said, "Since my sister is fine, then let's talk about me."
"You?"
"Well, what happens after I switch with her?"
"I'm afraid the prince will get suspicious, so I'm afraid you won't be included in the family tree right away." Chu Zhen frowned, "I'm sorry to have to trouble you..."
"Hmm..." Once you are included in the family tree, if you die unfortunately, your soul will have a place to go.
The biggest fear for killers is that their souls have nowhere to go after death. It is said that such people cannot even enter the cycle of reincarnation and can only be lonely ghosts for the rest of their lives.
But she won't be a killer in the future, so this is not a big deal.
She can also marry someone else, and her soul will live in someone else's house in the future.
Cheng Nianying asked: "What else?"
This question made Mother Zou tremble with fear.
Why is this person still looking forward to it? Even planning it?
No, are you really leaving?
Mother Zou glanced at Qin Yurong again. What good is this legitimate daughter?
"I'm afraid we can't stay in Yujing..." Chu Zhen said hesitantly.
Cheng Nianying slowly loosened her clenched fingers, her eyes dimming: "What else?"
Chu Zhen's eyes trembled. Obviously, she was not stupid. If she didn't give anything, people would naturally doubt her words.
Chu Zhen immediately said, "When the dust settles, your father and I will take you to your maternal grandparents' house for a while. How about that? Your aunt's family has brothers and sisters of your age who can play with you."
Cheng Nianying hesitated for a moment.
Although not very good.
But she still said, "How much gold and silver can I take away?"
Having met the Duke's parents and Wei Yanhua's father, it was clear that some parents were not necessarily trustworthy.
You still have to get enough gold and silver first.
Chu Zhen was stunned: "How much gold and silver are you bringing?"
Cheng Nianying nodded gently: "The wedding gifts, the rewards from His Majesty, and the things from the prince's private treasury... How much of that can I take away?"
Chu Zhen was displeased at first.
But then he couldn't help but sigh, this little girl is very smart. No matter how nice her words are, she doesn't rely entirely on the Wuning Marquis Mansion.
"I'm afraid you can't take these with you. Otherwise, if you need them in the future, you won't know what to do. It's okay to take the monthly salary from the mansion. Besides, your parents will have to give you some compensation so that you can live a worry-free life in the future..."
Chu Zhen clapped her hands, tears streaming down her face again. "Look at me. I was so anxious on the day of your wedding that I didn't even ask you what your current name is."
The killer's name cannot be revealed to the public.
"Xiao He." Cheng Nianying said, "My name is Xiao He."
"Xiaohe, Xiaohe, my Xiaohe. From now on, I will take better and better care of you, my delicate Xiaohe..." Chu Zhen said as she was about to hug her again.
"I'm really dirty." Cheng Nianying avoided it.
This made Chu Zhen feel at a loss as to where to put her love.
Mother Zou also said from the side: "Yes, the princess is ill and needs to avoid the wind and water."
Chu Zhen's eyes showed distress: "Why are you so sick?"
"It's okay, it's fine now." Cheng Nianying looked at Qin Yurong, "She..."
Chu Zhen bent down and pulled Qin Yurong up from the ground, angrily saying, "Don't hurt your sister. You stayed here to help your sister escape. Do you want her to live in fear for you for the rest of her life?"
Qin Yurong slowly came back to her senses, her face showing shame and anger. She bowed to Cheng Nianying and said, "Sister, you have worked so hard these days. I... I will bear this sin myself."
Cheng Nianying felt uncomfortable hearing this.
How did it become a sin?
Prince Danshuo wouldn't go this far... although he was a bit more thoughtful...
"Wipe your tears." Chu Zhen handed over the handkerchief, "Let your sister take us around the mansion."
Cheng Nianying was feeling a little short of breath, so she turned around and led the way.
Why wasn't I as happy as I expected when I met the wife of Marquis Wuning again?
"Princess of the County." A maid came up to her and bowed, saying, "The County Prince has sent this servant to pass on a message. Please be careful, Princess, and don't get too excited, lest you hurt your wound."
Chu Zhen heard the sound from behind and her eyes flashed.
"I understand." Cheng Nianying responded and walked down the stairs.
The maidservant continued, "Where are you going? If you walk too fast, you might sweat, and the sweat will soak into the wound and hurt."
"Just showing my mother around."
The maid thought for a moment and said, "I will go and ask for instructions."
Cheng Nianying had no choice but to wait there.
Chu Zhen followed him out, the emotions in her eyes becoming even more complex. ...Is this pampering? Or confinement?
Chu Zhen soon had an answer to this question.
After a while, the maid came back, followed by Fu Yi.
Fu Yi didn't look at the others. When he came closer, he just smiled and asked Cheng Nianying, "Do you want to take the seat instead and let someone push you?"
"...Why bother with this?" Cheng Nianying refused.
Fu Yi grabbed her wrist and said, "Let me take a look at your wound."
Chu Zhen watched, Qin Yurong watched, and Cheng Nianying felt that something was not good and immediately wanted to withdraw her hand.
Fu Yi, however, clenched his fists with a malicious look and said with a smile, "Why? I can't stand it?"
