Chapter 315 Her Father
As soon as the agreed deadline on the fifth day came, Mu Chu heard a very shocking news.
The Lin family's rebellion was all handled by Lin's patriarch and son. For the sake of Lin Shangshu's integrity and integrity for many years, he was just dismissed from the position of Shangshu, the whole family moved out of the capital, and was demoted as a commoner.
Although the situation is not satisfactory, but at least his life is saved, which can be regarded as a happy situation for all.
On the same day, Mrs. Xu came to the princess mansion with a heavy gift.
Mu Chu looked at the gifts piled up in the whole yard, and really didn't know what to say, Madam Xu even brought Xu Nanke out together.
The young boy's delicate cheeks had already turned a little bloody, which showed that his body was recovering well.
It was rare for the princess mansion to be so lively, and the crazy old man greeted him with a smile on his face.
It was the first time Lin Yurong met the crazy old man, and when he saw that face, he froze for a moment.
She smiled awkwardly at the crazy old man, but that smile was a bit forced.
The crazy old man couldn't see the meaning in her eyes, he walked forward with a light smile, and said loudly: "I didn't expect you, little girl, to grow so big all of a sudden!"
Lin Yurong smiled twice, pulled the crazy old man to an empty corner, and whispered: "Senior Yue, why did you suddenly come to the princess's mansion, you have been missing for more than ten years... "
Yue Zhongran showed a meaningful smile, and stroked his gray beard: "You little girl has a conscience, and you still remember me, the old man. I don't know how many people there are in this imperial city. I remember what happened back then what about?"
Lin Yurong's face was a little ugly.
"Don't mention it, there were not many people who knew about Feng Shu and Princess Yuzhuo back then, but you got involved in it several times. Otherwise, how would the Queen Mother know about it?"
When Lin Yurong said this, she looked at the crazy old man with some resentment. Although this matter was not entirely Yue Zhongran's fault, he was still at fault after all.
If the Empress Dowager hadn't eavesdropped on the two of them from him, the tragedy wouldn't have happened back then.
Feng Shu was executed as a traitor, and Princess Yuzhuo was forced to marry Prime Minister Mu.
A good couple of lovers ended up separated in the end.
The crazy old man seemed to have remembered something, and a guilt flashed in his eyes.
"It's all my fault for being too careless. I didn't know the old man back then, but the people around me would be the Queen Mother's eyeliner!"
"Then you told Chu'er about it. I came here today to talk about a few things about her parents, but I didn't expect to see you!"
When the crazy old man heard Madam Xu's words, he scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Not yet, but I have inquired about the old man in the past two days. It is really thanks to your Xu family's secret care these years that this girl didn't die. If you didn't often use other people's hands to send some food to Nanny Lin No, this girl still doesn't know how much she has to suffer in that Prime Minister's Mansion, and now that the Prime Minister's Mansion is in ruins, it's her own fault."
Yue Zhongran sighed slightly in his heart, and when he turned around, he saw Mu Chu standing not far away, walking towards the direction of the two of them.
The crazy old man and Lin Yurong stopped talking immediately, and looked in Mu Chu's direction with a smile.
With a slight smile on the corner of Mu Chu's mouth, he said softly: "I didn't expect Mrs. Xu and the old man to know each other. I don't know what they were whispering just now!"
When Mu Chu looked at Yue Zhongran, his eyes were a bit more inquisitive. She understood lip language, even if they were far away, they couldn't hear their voices, but Mu Chu knew exactly what they were saying.
Obviously, these two people have something to hide from themselves.
"I didn't say anything, you girl don't entertain guests, what are you doing here at my old man's house!"
Mu Chu smiled lightly, but did not press on.
But such a name appeared in her mind.
Fengshu.
Obviously, if Prime Minister Mu is not her real father, then this man named Feng Shu is her father.
But it looked like he was dead.
Mu Chu doesn't have much emotion in her heart, and she is not very interested in the grievances and hatreds of the older generation. Now she has avenged the prime minister's mansion for the original owner, and she has to live for herself for the rest of the time.
Lin Yurong glanced at Mu Chu's direction, but hesitated to speak.
She lowered her eyes slightly, stepped forward and grabbed Mu Chu's wrist.
"Chu'er, come here, I have something to tell you!"
Mu Chu glanced at Lin Yurong with some surprise, but followed her to a relatively secluded courtyard in the princess mansion.
"Mrs. Xu, if you have anything to say, just say it!"
"Chu'er, to tell you the truth, I know some secret things in the court, and you are not the daughter of the prime minister at all!"
Mu Chu smiled lightly, there was no surprise in his eyes, but it surprised Mrs. Xu.
"You already knew?"
Mu Chu nodded calmly: "Prime Minister Mu told me personally, otherwise, I wouldn't have hit so hard!"
Mrs. Xu chuckled, "Prime Minister Mu is seriously ill, it's really you who did it, but it's his own fault. Back then, the eldest princess and I handed each other handkerchiefs, and she was pregnant with you when she married into the prime minister's mansion..."
Mrs. Xu was silent for a moment, a little coldness appeared in her eyes.
"It's a pity that the Empress Dowager found out about this and secretly threatened your mother with your father's life, so that your mother was forced to marry Mu Wenyuan. After your mother got married, she executed your father regardless!"
These words shocked Mu Chu's heart.
The hands under her sleeves were tightly clenched, and there was a chill in her eyes.
It turned out that her identity was like this, and it was no wonder that in the royal family, no matter whether it was the little emperor or the empress dowager, they were not very close to her, leaving her to fend for herself in the Mu residence.
Lin Yurong suddenly grabbed Mu Chu's hand.
"However, there is another reason why you will be married by the empress dowager herself. The former emperor left an edict for your mother. Although I don't know the content of the edict, it is definitely related to the empress dowager!"
Mu Chu grasped the key point in Lin Yurong's words.
"Madam Xu, you mean, I should have an imperial edict in my hand, right? Is it because the queen mother wants to marry me into Prince Li's mansion because she is afraid that the edict will be made public?"
Lin Yurong was silent for a moment: "At the beginning, your mother and I said a word, if she died, the position of the Queen Mother would be lost!"
Mu Chu's eyes lit up suddenly, and his heart suddenly understood.
All the clues were linked together, making her feel like a mirror at this moment.
It turned out that all the tragedies were caused because of the imperial edict issued by the first emperor. Even if she didn't know the details, she could still make a rough guess.
The first emperor must have attached great importance to her sister, mother, otherwise, he would not have given her such a talisman after the eldest princess committed such a treasonous thing.
However, even after his death, the first emperor would never have thought that this amulet failed to protect his sister and niece after all.
