On this day, Jiang Meiyu received another invitation, which was sent to the palace by the young princess Zheng Yirong. Ziyan was very happy when she brought it in. As she walked in, she said, "Your Majesty, the young princess sent a letter saying that she wants to come and see you. The young princess likes you the most and is very talkative. She will definitely make you very happy."
"Yes, I like her too. I don't know why I always feel close to her." Jiang Meiyu looked at the post in her hand, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and a smile appeared on her face. She was full of affection for this little princess in her heart, and she could feel a warmth and intimacy every time she saw her.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in her mind: "Yu Yu, Prince Zheng is the original owner's biological father." This news made Jiang Meiyu very surprised. She widened her eyes and said in surprise: "What? Oh my god, Marquis Jianing is not the original owner's biological father? Xiao Ba, why didn't you tell me before? No wonder Marquis Jianing didn't like the original owner." She suddenly realized and finally understood why Marquis Jianing had always been indifferent to the original owner.
"The original owner didn't know in her previous life that she wasn't the daughter of Marquis Jianing?" Jiang Meiyu asked.
"I don't know. Only the late emperor, the eldest princess, and the Marquis of Jianing know about this. Even Prince Zheng doesn't know."
Then she asked curiously, "Then why did the eldest princess marry Marquis Jianing?" She was very confused about this question and didn't know the reason.
"In fact, when Prince Zheng was young and still a general, he and the eldest princess loved each other and had an unforgettable love. At that time, they were both young, one handsome and the other beautiful. Their love was like a flower blooming in spring, gorgeous and beautiful. However, fate always likes to play tricks on people. Just as they were immersed in the sweetness of love, an accident happened."
"The princess became pregnant with the original owner. This news was like a bombshell, shattering their peaceful life. The princess was panicked, but she loved General Zheng deeply and didn't want to lose him or the child. So, she mustered up the courage to ask the late emperor for a marriage, hoping to marry General Zheng and raise the child together."
"However, the late emperor had his own concerns. He feared that the young General Zheng's achievements would surpass his own, posing a threat to the then Crown Prince, now Emperor of Yue. Therefore, he decided to use this opportunity to arrange for the eldest princess' marriage to the Marquis of Jianing in order to weaken General Zheng's power. This decision plunged the eldest princess and General Zheng into despair, and their love seemed to have come to an end."
"General Zheng could not accept this outcome. He angrily told the late emperor that he was willing to surrender his military power and resign as a sign of protest. The late emperor was naturally happy to go along with it, and just like that, General Zheng lost his power and status."
"Time passed quickly. Many years later, when the Emperor of Yue came to power, he realized General Zheng's loyalty and talent and decided to make him a prince of a different surname in recognition of his achievements. General Zheng finally regained his honor and respect, but the pain in his heart could never be erased."
"Oh, this is the first time I've explained it so clearly. I'm so tired," the system complained.
"Who told you not to tell me in advance? Xiao Ba, you have worked hard. Go and have a rest! Bye." Jiang Meiyu sent Xiao Ba away in her head and came back to her senses. She only heard Zi Yan calling out, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? Please don't scare me." Zi Yan was crying and wanted to find someone to notify the prince to come over.
"Zi Yan, don't worry. I was just distracted for a moment. It's nothing serious. Don't let the prince worry about it." Jiang Meiyu used a handkerchief to wipe Zi Yan's tears and said as she wiped.
"Really? Your Majesty?" Zi Yan asked uncertainly.
"Of course, it couldn't be more true. When have you ever seen me tell a lie?" Jiang Meiyu scratched Zi Yan's nose lovingly.
"Then why was the queen in a daze just now?" Zi Yan asked puzzledly.
"Oh, I just suddenly thought of something." Jiang Meiyu made up an excuse to get away with it.
"So that's how it is. Your Majesty, please don't scare me like this in the future." Zi Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, I understand." Jiang Meiyu nodded with a smile.
The next morning, the sun was shining brightly, the sky a brilliant blue like a gem, and the cloudless sky was a joyful spectacle. The young princess couldn't wait to run all the way to the East Palace. Her cheerful figure and clear shouts seemed to bring infinite vitality to the entire palace.
"Sister Yu, Sister Yu, I'm here to see you!" Her voice was as sweet as a silver bell, full of joy and anticipation.
When Jiang Meiyu heard this familiar voice, a gentle smile immediately appeared on her face. She walked out of the room quickly to greet the arrival of the little princess.
"That's easy, you're finally here! Come here and let Sister Yu take a good look at you. Have you become more beautiful?" Jiang Meiyu pinched the little princess's pink cheeks affectionately, her eyes full of pampering.
"Sister Yu, you're teasing me again!" The little princess lowered her head shyly, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up. Her face, originally flushed from running, now glowed like a ripe apple, revealing a charming blush.
"Come, let's go into the house. It's too hot outside, it's cooler inside." Jiang Meiyu gently took the little princess's hand and led her into the house.
The maids quickly brought out plates of exquisite fruits and snacks, placing them on the table. They looked at the princess curiously, secretly admiring her: This little princess is indeed as cute and lovely as the rumors say, making everyone happy.
Jiang Meiyu was just about to sit down when the little princess came running over, staring at her belly with her big eyes full of curiosity. She asked, "I heard that I'm pregnant. Sister, does the baby move in your belly?"
Jiang Meiyu smiled slightly, touched her belly, and replied gently: "It's still small now and can't move yet, but when it grows a little bigger, it will start to move."
The little princess blinked and then asked, "Sister, can he hear us talking?"
Jiang Meiyu smiled and said, "Maybe you can't hear it now, but you should be able to hear it when you grow up a little bit."
The little princess clapped her hands excitedly, then took Jiang Meiyu's hand and said coquettishly: "Sister Yu, when he can hear us talking, I will come and chat with him every day, okay?"
Jiang Meiyu looked at the innocent and lovely appearance of the little princess and couldn't help laughing. She nodded and agreed, "Okay, if you come and talk to the baby in your belly every day, the baby will definitely be very happy!" As she spoke, she gently stroked the little princess's hair, her eyes full of pampering.
The little princess stayed in the East Palace for the whole day, and she was so happy that she didn't want to leave. If the prince hadn't returned to the palace and ordered the servants to send her back to the palace, she would have stayed in the East Palace! After all, there was food and drink here, and people to play with. Life was so comfortable. However, the prince was not happy to let her live in the East Palace. He knew very well that this little princess was always sticking to Jiang Meiyu, and even her own place was being taken away. How could this be allowed? Therefore, he decisively let her go back.
