Chapter 447 There is a beautiful person
When Emperor Fu saw a woman approaching, what he thought in his mind was that the person was not a palace maid. The empress had been under house arrest, but she dared to meet outsiders. When he saw the other person's face clearly, his mind went blank.
The memories that had become a little fuzzy due to the passage of time seemed to become clearer at this moment.
He thought back to his youth when he had just ascended the throne. He had a quarrel with Ruan Danyang over some political views, so he secretly ran out of the palace to relax.
I met a little girl whose purse was stolen by the city river.
She hid in the dock, crying until her nose turned red and her eyes were like soaked grapes.
There is a beautiful person, clear and graceful, we met by chance, just what I wish for
There is a beautiful person, clear and graceful. We meet by chance, and both of us are wonderful.
For the first time, the young emperor fell in love with the little orphan girl.
She was a talented writer, wrote beautiful calligraphy with hairpin flowers, and played the piano very well.
Apart from her background, she was simply the perfect candidate for a wife in his mind.
They spent the best days at the dock, and he promised her that he would be responsible for her for the rest of her life.
The memories of his youth are so beautiful, so Emperor Fu has a special preference for Concubine Liu.
However, after Concubine Liu entered the palace, she never played the piano nor recited poems with him under the moon, nor did she write inscriptions for his paintings.
She said her hand was injured.
But for some reason, when Emperor Fu saw this woman who looked exactly like Concubine Liu today, the vague outline in his mind became clearer.
The woman in front of him was the one he deeply loved when he was young.
When Liu Miaoxin saw Emperor Fu, she looked a little dazed, her eyes fixed on his face.
A strong sense of sadness and heartache welled up in my heart, as well as an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
"Who... are you?" Emperor Fu held Liu Miaoxin's wrist with a somewhat crazy look on his face.
Liu Miaoxin was so frightened that her face turned pale, "Let go, let me go!"
Queen Ruan's clear and pleasant voice sounded behind Emperor Fu, "Your Majesty, this Lady Liu is the twin sister of Concubine Liu."
"Twin sister?" Emperor Fu's breathing was a little heavy. He did not turn back to look at Queen Ruan. His burning eyes almost burned a hole in Liu Miaoxin's face.
"A slight breeze stirs up the waves..." Emperor Fu spoke in a hoarse voice.
Liu Miaoxin subconsciously replied, "Scattered into stars all over the river."
"This night in this life is short-lived..." Emperor Fu's voice trembled a little.
"Where can I see the bright moon next year?" Liu Miaoxin added.
Emperor Fu closed his eyes and tried his best to suppress the anger in his chest. At this point, there was nothing he didn't understand.
Concubine Liu could not remember a single line of the poetry they had exchanged under the moon when they were young.
No one knew except him and the little girl at that time.
"You go down first. I have something to say to the Queen." Emperor Fu said in a hoarse voice, reluctant to speak too loudly to the woman in front of him.
Liu Miaoxin looked at Queen Ruan in panic.
"Go to the side hall first, I'll summon you later." Queen Ruan nodded slightly to her.
Seeing that Liu Miaoxin trusted Queen Ruan more, Emperor Fu felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife.
"Ruan Danyang, what on earth did you do?" Emperor Fu gritted his teeth, "You think that if you bring her to me, I will let you and Ruan Xinglin go."
"Sometimes I really doubt whether you can still sit in this position if you didn't have the support of the Queen Mother and the Mu and Ruan families." Queen Ruan looked at him mockingly.
Seeing that Liu Miaoxin looked similar to Concubine Liu, this idiot actually thought that she was plotting against him.
He never thought about why it was his elder sister who was in love with him, but it was his younger sister who entered the palace. Over the years, his younger sister never mentioned his elder sister. There were obviously suspicious points everywhere, but he hadn't noticed them.
Emperor Fu was annoyed, "What on earth do you want to say!"
A hint of evil coldness flashed across Empress Ruan's eyes, "I remember that Concubine Liu gave birth to the second prince in the seventh month after she entered the palace."
"Your Majesty, if the woman who accompanied you, knew you, and loved you was Madam Liu, then whose child is Madam Liu's? Whose child is your beloved Second Prince?"
It was like a bolt from the blue.
Emperor Fu was struck by the lightning and felt cold all over.
He was only immersed in the shock of having recognized the wrong person all these years, and never thought that there was a problem with the second prince's background.
"Ruan Danyang, did you know long ago that I recognized the wrong person? You deserve to be killed!" Emperor Fu was furious.
"Madam Liu has been living in the capital city for these years, and in He Zhiyuan's mansion. The Madam He who has never appeared is her. I heard that she married the bedridden He Zhitian, and she gave birth to a son not long after."
"Her son is He Jingyao, Your Majesty, you have seen him. He is about the same size as the Second Prince." Queen Ruan knew that Emperor Fu must be in excruciating pain at this moment.
What's this!
She has been suffering in dire straits for so many years, and he deserves to feel the pain too.
Being plotted against by her beloved imperial concubine, betrayed by a trusted minister, and falling in love with a bastard, well, any one of these things was enough to make Queen Ruan feel a sense of relief.
"Impossible!" Emperor Fu blurted out, "Ruan Danyang, you hired someone to deceive me. I absolutely don't believe you."
"Then why don't you, Your Majesty, go confront Concubine Liu? Take Madam Liu with you to see Concubine Liu. I believe that the scene will be very touching when the sisters meet." Queen Ruan said with a smile.
"It's just... why did He Zhiyuan hide Madam Liu's identity? At the beginning, the sisters all lived in the He family. He Zhiyuan must have known that Madam Liu was the emperor's favorite. Why did your sister become your imperial concubine?"
"He Zhiyuan has supported the Second Prince for so many years. Even when he disappeared, he had made clear arrangements for the Second Prince's future."
"Oh, Your Majesty, it seems that the person who needs to be identified by blood should be your beloved second son."
Every word Queen Ruan said was like a knife, cutting Emperor Fu all over.
He refused to believe that the Second Prince was not his son. He was the son he had raised with all his heart and soul. How could the son he had invested all his love in raising be someone else's!
how come!
"I don't believe a word you say." Emperor Fu said angrily, "Yu'er is my son."
Just as he finished speaking, Su Zhongcheng's face turned pale and he said, "Your Majesty, something happened at the Meridian Gate."
Emperor Fu looked suddenly at Queen Ruan.
"Your Majesty, He Jingyao is still alive. He is Madam Liu's biological son." Queen Ruan said.
"What happened?" Emperor Fu was holding back his huge anger and looked at Su Zhongcheng fiercely.
Su Zhongcheng's heart was still pounding. He really didn't dare to report the matter at the Meridian Gate to the Emperor.
"Your Majesty, the Second Prince... The Second Prince is injured and has been sent back to the Prince's Residence. Prince Heng and several other officials from the Dali Temple are in the Yangxin Palace, asking to see you."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Fu's heart sank, thinking that something must have happened.
"Has brother Ruan Xinglin pleaded guilty?" asked Emperor Fu.
Su Zhongcheng buried his head in the dirt and said, "Your Majesty, the Dali Temple has found evidence to prove that Censor Hong was slandering the loyal officials. The person who actually forged weapons privately in Jiangbei was He Zhiyuan."
Fu Di's head was buzzing, and he felt as if something collapsed in his heart.
