Chapter 62: Fake Heiress, Really Yandere (End)
Being good parents, to some extent, is a plus for their children.
Take Han Ding for example. Before he knew about the existence of the Cheng family, he thought Zhou Qingcheng was a stunning beauty who was a little stupid but very self-aware.
But when he saw the letter left by Cheng with his own eyes, when he went to see her again, he inexplicably felt that this woman was wise but appeared foolish.
Gu Qingcheng: ...Listen to what you are saying? Are you sure you are praising me? But it doesn't matter.
Gu Qingcheng has always regarded Han Ding as a target for conquest. As long as she can ensure that Han Ding always has a "favorable impression" of her, this person's other thoughts are not within Gu Qingcheng's consideration.
To put it bluntly, as long as Gu Qingcheng can live a leisurely and comfortable life with the support of Han Ding, Gu Qingcheng doesn't care if Han Ding treats her as an idiot.
Huoshui: ...As expected, the people who are involved in government affairs are so "realistic".
Just like the empress who praised the person's writing skills when she was scolded, and blamed the prime minister for not being able to recruit such a talent! To put it nicely, it means being open-minded; to put it bluntly, it means having no face or self-esteem.
"Jiaojiao, do you want to find her?"
After talking about the past at Baiyun Temple, Han Ding suddenly asked this question.
Gu Qingcheng thought about it and shook her head, "No need! If she wants to find me, she will come by herself!"
The reason she didn't come was either because she had already started a new life and didn't want to be disturbed by the past.
Either that or——
No matter what the situation is, Gu Qingcheng feels that it is better not to investigate further.
Just think of it as self-deception and keep a beautiful fantasy in your heart.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Han Ding became more and more satisfied, and he said that his little fool was a wise man who appeared foolish.
Unlike the Li mother and daughter, tut tut, they are all idiots.
However, the child-swapping scandal at Baiyun Temple became public, and Li's good days came to an end.
She plotted to seize the title of the Marquis, or to put it mildly, to confuse the Zhou family's bloodline.
To put it in a broader sense, that is deceiving the emperor.
After all, the princes of the marquis' mansions were all reported to the court, and then the emperor bestowed his grace and enthroned them.
Li created a fake son to be the crown prince in the marquis's mansion, and he served in that capacity for more than ten years.
Although she is suspected of "restoring order" recently, her behavior itself is a great disrespect to the court and the royal family!
The Jingzhao Yin examined the case thoroughly and without further ado, sent it directly to the old emperor's desk.
The old emperor had just dealt with the Han family and was in a happy mood.
Unexpectedly, someone came to ruin his good mood.
Looking at the content of the case again, the old emperor became even more furious.
Well, just for a small title of marquis, a woman like Li dared to come up with such a cunning idea.
But beneath his butt is a vast territory.
The concubines in the harem, especially those women with sons, are so bold and daring.
The old emperor was definitely taking his anger out on others.
There was no way. As he grew older year by year, especially after suffering from the sequelae of his serious illness, he became extremely wary of his sons who had already grown up.
He doted on Queen Han so much because of the Han family behind her.
Secondly, it was because Queen Han was indeed young and beautiful; thirdly, and this was the most important reason: Queen Han had no children! A woman without a son could only rely on her husband.
Unlike other women in the harem, she dares to do anything for her son.
Li's case really hit the old emperor in the lungs.
He made a direct instruction: First, Li confused the bloodline of the Marquisate and deceived the emperor, and was exiled three thousand miles away;
Second, Jingning Marquis Zhou Qi did not manage his household properly and did not do his job as an official, so he was stripped of his title and demoted to a commoner.
The old emperor has finally taken action to remove the firewood from the ground.
Li, you are acting recklessly just for the title, so I might as well cut the Zhou family into a blank slate and see if you will regret it or spit blood!
As for other people, such as Zhou Yi, who was taken away by mistake, now known as Gu Yi, the old emperor did not vent his anger on them.
After learning that Gu Yi had taken the initiative to leave the Marquis' Mansion and to recognize his ancestral roots, the old emperor even developed a slight liking for him.
Good boy!
Do your duty, follow the rules, know how to restrain greed, and don't be greedy for anything that doesn't belong to you!
Unlike those unfilial sons of his, who started fighting over things before their father even gave the order.
Afterwards, Gu Yi's provincial and imperial examinations all went very smoothly.
During the palace examination, although a new emperor had been appointed, there was no emperor who did not like his subjects to follow the rules and abide by their duties.
So, the new king also mentioned him.
It’s just that Gu Yi’s grades were too poor, and he didn’t make it into the top three, but he managed to get 27th place in the second class.
Gu Yi entered the officialdom through the imperial examination. He was honest and diligent. Although he did not become a dazzling figure like Chen Chen and Han Ding, he lived a smooth life.
The two baby girls involved in the baby-swapping case, Zhou Qingcheng and Zhou Baozhu, were both already married and could not be considered members of the Zhou family, so the old emperor generously let them go.
The Zhou family collapsed, and it was all because of such a dishonorable crime.
Many people who were related to the Zhou family by marriage tried to distance themselves from them.
Zhou Xian, the eldest aunt, is a grandmother. Otherwise, her in-laws would take the opportunity to divorce her and send her back home.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
However, although Zhou Xian still stayed in her husband's family, her life was very difficult.
Her husband built a small Buddhist temple at home and let her stay in it to pray for their children and grandchildren.
Even Zhou Xian, who had been married for many years and had grandchildren, ended up like this. Some people in the capital turned their attention to Zhou Baozhu and Zhou Qingcheng, the two newly married daughters.
Especially Zhou Baozhu, she was Li's only biological daughter and had been married for less than a month.
It is said that she had a bad temper. As soon as she arrived at the Chen family, she got angry with Chen Chen's stepmother and biological mother.
Chen Chen was in a difficult position being caught between several women.
However, after the incident in the Zhou family, Chen Chen became more concerned about Zhou Baozhu.
He simply gave up all the property of the Duke Dingguo's Mansion, left the house with nothing, and lived separately with Zhou Baozhu and his biological mother.
Zhou Baozhu was held in his hands and became the object of envy of countless noble ladies in Beijing.
Zhou Baozhu was so proud.
He even went to Gu Qingcheng to show off.
Gu Qingcheng: ...This fool, doesn’t she know that Chen Chen is becoming famous by stepping on her head?
With today's "sweet love", when Zhou Baozhu "dies of illness" one day, no one will doubt Chen Chen.
Sure enough, a year later, Zhou Baozhu fell seriously ill and died.
Chen Chen was heartbroken over the loss of his "beloved wife".
He did not say any big words, but silently proved his feelings with actions - he did not remarry within three years.
Therefore, before the new king ascended the throne, before he rose to prominence, he eliminated the opportunity to marry a wife who would not be of any help to him!
That year, Han Yan could no longer hold on and closed his eyes completely. Han Ding inherited the title of Duke Cheng'en.
Two years later, the old emperor finally couldn't hold on any longer.
Under the influence of Queen Han, the Seventh Prince performed very well, and the old emperor bypassed his previous sons and made the Seventh Prince the Crown Prince.
Half a month later, the old emperor passed away. That night, several former princes took the opportunity to launch a coup.
No one expected that Han Ding would lead 30,000 elite soldiers into the palace and successfully wipe out the rebels.
The prince ascended the throne and Queen Han became the queen mother.
That winter, the barbarians from the northwest took advantage of the transition from the old to the new imperial court to invade the border town. To everyone's surprise, the new emperor sent Han Ding to the northwest to lead the troops.
Everyone knows that there is the Han family army in the northwest.
However, ever since Han Nai fell off his horse and died and Han Yan suffered a stroke, the Han family army has been somewhat divided.
Although Han Ding is the direct descendant of the Han family, he is a weak and spoiled young master.
Even Madam Wei and Queen Mother Han were worried and didn't want Han Ding to go.
"Jiaojiao, what do you think?"
"Husband, if you want to go, then go ahead! I believe in you!"
Gu Qingcheng still maintained her image as a little woman, and looked at Han Ding as if she was looking up at a god.
Han Ding: ...It turns out that my little fool understands me the best.
Jiaojiao, just wait, I will definitely win honor for you! Gu Qingcheng: ...It's time to end it.
PS: As expected, the last chapter was not finished, so this chapter has explained everything that needed to be explained, hehe.
PPS: I feel much better today. I feel that as long as I can get through the day of high fever, it will be easier to get through the next one. Besides, being sick is not completely without benefits. At least I don’t have to listen to a little ancestor calling “Mom” eight hundred times a day for the past two days. 罒ω罒
