A Cai's work The Emperor's Phoenix: Abandoned Concubine The Emperor's Phoenix: Abandoned Concubine Volume 1 1897 sets a trap, and the Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen are exhausted from dealing with it
Although Su Wenqing had been mentally prepared, he still felt a little uncomfortable when he realized that Madam Min was the Ninth Prince's mother.
He had never thought that the Ninth Prince would have a mother. This was really strange. Moreover, the woman who gave birth to the Ninth Prince looked gentle, kind and benevolent. She was completely different from the Ninth Prince. The mother and son did not look alike at all. When they stood together, there was a sense of incongruity.
Su Wenqing tried hard to control his distorted face and asked carefully: "What should we do next?"
The Ninth Prince's mother suddenly came back to life after death, and was brought here by Liancheng's people. If they didn't investigate, they would be worried. But if they did, this person was the Ninth Prince's mother after all, and without the Ninth Prince's order, they would not dare to investigate further.
"Check where she has been all these years. I don't believe what she says." Having never met her, the Ninth Prince did not have much affection for her even if she was his biological mother. He could even use Feng Qingchen, so how could he blindly believe the mother he had just met.
"We have done some research before, but there is no trace at all. It's completely clean, as if she appeared out of thin air." The moment Mrs. Min appeared, Su Wenqing checked her background. Apart from knowing that she suddenly appeared outside Liancheng, there was no other trace.
"Investigate again. I don't believe it. She has been isolated from the world before. As long as she appears, there must be traces. If not, it can only mean that she is extremely suspicious." Madam Min's eyes seemed pure and innocent. But the Ninth Prince couldn't believe that a woman in her forties could be so pure and innocent, even if this person was his mother.
"Okay. I'll inform Bu Jingyun to start with Liancheng." Su Wenqing was sure that Madam Min must have a relationship with Liancheng. Whether Liancheng was using Madam Min, or Madam Min and Liancheng were teaming up to plot against the Ninth Prince, they had to be on guard.
"Okay." The Ninth Prince was not too upset about the fact that he was going to find out about his biological mother. His mother was a princess of the previous dynasty, and he had completely broken off relations with the previous dynasty, so there was already a gap between them.
The Ninth Prince has confirmed Madam Min's identity, but he still has not raised Madam Min's status in the Ninth Prince's Mansion, nor has he sent her to the palace and given her the status of Grand Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager is not just a title, she also represents power, the highest power for women.
Madam Min was not in a hurry either. She didn't seem to care about these things at all. She just took care of the flowers and plants every day, and cared about the health of the Ninth Prince. She cooked for the prince every day and even if the Ninth Prince didn't eat, she still insisted on eating.
In Madam Min's words, the Ninth Prince was her only son. He had been without a mother since childhood and had suffered too much alone. She wanted to use her actions to make up for the loss of the past twenty years.
Even though the Ninth Prince had always refused and Feng Qingchen's snow wolf had grown fatter, Madam Min was not sad or upset. She had always silently shown through her actions that she was indebted to the Ninth Prince.
Madam Min said that this was what she owed the Ninth Prince and that this was what she should bear. She asked for nothing else in her life except that the Ninth Prince would forgive her as a failed mother.
These had nothing to do with Feng Qingchen. Even the Ninth Prince was wary of his mother, so Feng Qingchen didn't need to try to please him. Even if the Ninth Prince respected his mother very much, Feng Qingchen didn't need to please him. She didn't marry the Ninth Prince, and Madam Min was not related to her.
But……
Madam Min refused to let her go and repeatedly expressed her desire to see Feng Qingchen. At first, she tried to test him privately, but after Feng Qingchen refused several times on the grounds of being busy, Madam Min changed her mind and went directly to ask for a meeting.
No matter what, the other party is an elder. Since they are already at the door, Feng Qingchen can't refuse to see them, but the two of them had a very unpleasant encounter when they met for the first time.
Madam Min is Qin Baoer's upgraded treasure, a weak, kind and innocent beauty. Feng Qingchen is most powerless against such a person.
"Miss Feng is indeed as the rumors say, beautiful, noble, generous and dignified. No wonder my son loves you so much. I feel relieved to see that my son can find the woman he loves in his life." Madam Min smiled gently, with soft joy in her eyes. Anyone who saw this scene would think that she liked Feng Qingchen very much, but...
Qingchen felt that these words of praise were extremely strange, but the next second Feng Qingchen understood where this strangeness came from.
Madam Min changed her tone, with a hint of tears in her voice, and looked at Feng Qingchen expectantly: "Miss Feng, you and my son have such a close relationship, you must know him very well, and he will definitely listen to you. Can you help me persuade him?"
"Ma'am, I miss you..."
Madam Min's eyes were filled with mist, as if she had suffered a great injustice. She looked at Feng Qingchen with a sad and resentful look, ignoring Feng Qingchen's words and continued, "Miss Feng, listen to me. I know he has always resented me and now refuses to forgive me. I know this is all my fault, and I don't ask him to forgive me. But I beg you to help me persuade him to let go of his resentment towards me, and don't refuse me to get close to you, at least give me a chance. Miss Feng, you are so kind, you must not have the heart to see us mother and son become alienated, right?"
Yes, yes, for your head...
Faced with Madam Min, who was more intelligent, pure and innocent than Qin Baoer, Feng Qingchen really wanted to drive her out, but she couldn't, because she was the mother of the Ninth Prince, and she had to give her the respect she deserved.
Feng Qingchen forced a smile and said, "Madam, I think you must have misunderstood. There is no close relationship between the Ninth Prince and I. There is nothing innocent between us. Don't listen to what those people say. You don't believe in me, but you should believe in the Ninth Prince. He is your son, so he is naturally as beautiful and noble as you. How could he do such a thing as giving and receiving things privately?"
Feng Qingchen also has the ability to tell lies with open eyes. Anyway, no one dares to verify such things. And after dealing with Qin Baoer, the glass beauty, several times, even if Feng Qingchen doesn't like her, he can deal with such a weak and innocent beauty, at least he won't suffer any losses.
But Feng Qingchen underestimated Madam Min's level. Madam Min was a white flower of higher level than Qin Baoer.
Madam Min completely ignored Feng Qingchen's words, tears falling one by one, and she talked to herself: "I know, I know you blame me too, you all blame me. I didn't want this to happen... He is my biological son, a piece of flesh that fell from my body after ten months of pregnancy. If I could, I would never abandon him even if I die. I don't have much time left, and I have no other requests in this life, I only hope that he can forgive me as a mother, forgive me as a failed mother."
Madam Min cried very sadly, and seemed to be trying hard to endure something. Feng Qingchen hesitated for a moment, but decided to go forward to comfort her. But just as he stood up, Madam Min also stood up with tears on her face. She pretended to be strong and said, "I am abrupt and have caused trouble for Miss Feng. Miss Feng, just pretend that I have not been here today."
Madam Min walked out of the Feng Mansion with tears on her face and red eyes. She staggered outside the Feng Mansion, as if she had suffered a great shock. The servants of the Feng Mansion noticed something and wanted to stop her, but it was too late...
