"Princess, why are you here? Why didn't you tell me earlier so that I could go and greet you?"
As soon as Su's mother arrived, she spoke enthusiastically with a smile on her face.
The virtuous princess smiled, elegantly placed the teacup in her mouth, and said calmly, "I passed by your house and remembered something, so I thought of coming in to sit down and bother you."
Mother Su hurriedly smiled and said, "No, no, Princess, you don't have to be so polite. Princess, what did you think of that you came to ask me?"
Seeing that she didn't seem to care about marriage, Su's mother couldn't help but wonder what else she could care about.
Princess Xian said, "My Rui'er went to Jiuli Temple yesterday to burn incense and pray for his grandmother. He met a girl there. She said she was your Qingyue. But when he asked, she didn't know. The girl didn't know Rui'er at all. Rui'er joked with him for Qingyue. But later he found out that she was not Qingyue. But the girl looked exactly like Qingyue. Rui'er came back and told me about it. Then I suddenly remembered that more than two decades ago, Madam Su gave birth to twins. If the child was born, he should look like Qingyue, beautiful and generous, well-educated and well-mannered, a rare beauty."
The virtuous princess said this with a smile, but Su's mother couldn't smile at all. Her mind was in a daze, and her hands unconsciously grasped the two ends of the chair tightly, with disbelief in her eyes.
When she heard Su Qingyue talk about it before, she was still half-believing and half-doubting, but now that even the prince of Xianwang Mansion has seen that person, Su's mother completely believes it.
But I still find it hard to accept and I can't believe it.
Princess Xian looked at Su's mother who was confused, and was too happy for her, so she said, "Madam Su, I don't think there will be two people who look exactly the same in this world. If there are, they must be twins. If your child hadn't died, he would definitely be as beautiful as Qingyue now.
We don't know what happened back then. I thought you were sad for so long because of this child. When I heard the news today, I hurried to tell you. If you really have that child, Madam Su, you will be blessed again. ”
Madam Su forced a smile that was uglier than crying, and nodded stiffly, "Oh, oh! I just find it a little hard to believe. The child was clearly dead at the beginning. At that time, in order to let her be reborn in a good way in the next life, we asked a master to calculate. The master said that because the child was too young, it was not suitable for burial. We should make a blessing boat for the child and put the child in the Zijin River outside the city, and let the child float away with the blessing boat. The master said that the Zijin River leads to the West Heaven, so that our prayers can reach the ears of the gods, and my child can be reborn in a good way in the next life, without illness and pain, and live a rich and prosperous life."
As she spoke, Su's mother wiped her tears with a handkerchief, looking as if she was still very sad when she talked about this.
She could think of a suitable reason. If she really got the child, she could explain it to outsiders later.
Princess Xian was very surprised, "How could such a thing happen?"
Mother Su nodded, looking sad. "Oh! To be honest, I didn't agree at all. I just thought that no matter how young the child was, she should be buried in peace. How could she be tortured like this? She died at such a young age. It was pitiful enough. She had to suffer like this after death. I was so heartbroken that I didn't want to do this. But in the end, the master convinced me that what we think is good for the child is not really good. On the contrary, what we think is not good is really good for the child. He asked me if I wanted my daughter to be free of illness and pain in the next life, rich and stable. Naturally, I wanted that. He said he did, so I did as he said, instead of being selfish and only caring about my own thoughts."
Mother Su paused for a moment, wiped her tears, and said in a sobbing voice: "Later, I had no choice but to agree. After sending the child away, I fell ill and it took me a long time to recover."
Princess Xian nodded, and she also sympathized with Su's mother, and said gently: "Perhaps a miracle happened, and your little daughter didn't die and came back to life, and these people may have been wandering outside forever."
Mother Su still looked like she couldn't believe it, and smiled bitterly, "Princess, although today's news is very shocking! But I still don't believe it unless I can see the child with my own eyes. Prince, do you know where the child is now? You all said that he looks exactly like Yue'er. If I don't see it with my own eyes, I really can't believe it."
Thinking of what her son said about the girl being related to the emperor, Princess Xian said, "Rui'er doesn't know where the girl is from. I only met her once. However, the girl's name seems to be Qingli, and she knows your Majesty. Rui'er learned this name from your Majesty."
"What? You know him?"
Mother Su was surprised! It also makes me even more annoyed. Why does it involve Your Majesty?
Princess Xian nodded, "Yes! Not only does he know her, but his majesty also warned my Rui'er, telling him to be more respectful the next time he sees that girl, and to treat her very differently. His majesty has never been close to women in these years, but this time he seems to be interested in this girl. If he really loves your daughter, then Madam Su, congratulations."
The Virtuous Princess had a good idea. If that girl was really from the Su family, it would be even better if she could marry the emperor. Then their Virtuous Palace would marry the eldest daughter of the Su family, and the emperor would marry the youngest daughter of the Su family. Everyone knew that the emperor had no heirs, and that girl would not give birth to any heirs after marrying into the palace. Instead, she could help her sister. Su Qingyue was from their Virtuous Palace, and the emperor had no heirs, so the final choice was a member of the Zong family. With the help of that girl, their Virtuous Palace would have an even greater chance.
The more Princess Xian thought about it, the more she felt that this was feasible, and she had already made a lot of secret plans in her mind.
The more the virtuous princess thought about it, the happier she became. However, Su's mother couldn't be happy at all. Master Li had said at the beginning that the child was born to be lonely and unlucky with relatives and friends. If they really killed her, they wouldn't even dare to bring her home, let alone send her to the palace. If she wanted to harm the emperor, even if everyone in the Su family had nine heads, it would not be enough to chop off her.
Su Qingyue, who was hiding at the back door, frowned after hearing these words. When did Qingli become familiar with the emperor? How could all this happen in just one or two days?
Also, Nangong Rui mistook Qingli for himself, and he didn't know if Qingli had any suspicions.
Su Qingyue couldn't help but feel a little worried. She had never thought before that Qingli's face was exactly the same as hers. If she walked on the streets of Nanyang City and met a few people who knew her, they would mistake her for themselves.
One is still okay, but if both of them think that she is Su Qingyue, Qingli will definitely be suspicious.
It seems that I really need to explain it to her clearly. As for my mother's side, she always feels that their attitude is a little unclear when they mention my sister, which makes her confused.
In the room, after talking about Xiao Qingli, Princess Xian couldn't help but bring up Xiao Su Qingyue's marriage.
The virtuous princess naturally knew what the Su family was waiting for. She knew the Su family's thoughts, just as the Su family knew the thoughts of the virtuous palace. Everyone was tacitly aware of it and did not talk about feelings. They only talked about interests and took what they needed.
