Chapter 205 I'm sorry for him
"Last time I asked you to check the people in the mansion, the people you handed over to me are all servants in the mansion. If you are more attentive, I will also send a few unfavored concubines or illegitimate sons and daughters..."
The princess placed a list on the table and said, "I have not kidnapped any of the people on this list. You don't care about the country at all!"
All the clan members lowered their heads and dared not look her in the eye, let alone speak to defend themselves.
The princess mercilessly targeted the court officials: "And all the adults, I know who you have contacted privately, and I also know what you have done. I will give you one chance to explain everything clearly, otherwise..."
She looked around coldly: "Otherwise, Ji Hongwen's family of three will end up like you!"
Everyone then understood why the eldest princess had revealed her shortcomings in front of them. It turned out that it was to warn and intimidate them.
Who in the capital didn't know how deeply the princess loved Ji Hongwen? She had been a widow ever since she received the news that he had died in battle, and she had even carefully raised the adopted son he had chosen.
But when she learned that Ji Hongwen had not only plotted against her, but also against the late emperor, she showed no mercy to her husband who had returned after twenty-one years.
Even if it was his adopted son, he could still take his life with thundering means.
This is the eldest princess. As long as she wants, she can cut off all feelings and love. She can even cruelly kill her loved ones, let alone them?
Everyone was sweating coldly and looked towards the old prince.
Although he is the most senior among the clan members, he was often taught a lesson by the eldest princess in the past and has an instinctive fear of her. He does not want to provoke her at this time.
[I was overthinking it. I thought she would be devastated and it would take her some time to recover from the blow...]
[As expected, the eldest princess is still the eldest princess. There is nothing she can't do as long as she wants. ]
After sending everyone away, the princess finally had the courage to talk to her son: "Zi Che..."
The eldest princess was weak and pale at this moment. Only she knew how difficult it was for her to pretend just now. The cruel truth had already defeated her.
When she first heard Ji Hongwen's voice, she went from disbelief to ecstasy. She didn't care about anything else and wanted to rush out to meet him.
I never dared to dream that he was still alive, and that we could be reunited as a family in his lifetime.
But An San, who Ye Xuanqi had arranged to guard her, stopped her: "Princess, please forgive me, but the prince has ordered that you cannot leave at this time."
She also calmed down from her ecstasy, and a truth that she herself dared not face vaguely emerged in her heart.
So when Ye Xuanqi sent Zhou Feng to secretly ask for her opinion, she hesitated for a moment before making a decision: "No need to avoid anyone, just let those clan relatives and court officials listen!"
At this moment, she only has the identity of the eldest princess of the Jin'an Dynasty. Everything must give way to the stability of Jin'an, even her feelings and her face.
If Ji Hongwen really surrendered to the enemy and betrayed his country, he must die today!
But what she didn't expect was that the truth was not as serious as she had expected, but even more cruel than she had expected.
She didn't know how she recovered from the unprecedented despair. When her sanity was about to disappear, she just kept telling herself not to fall down.
She was filled with anger and shame, and the hatred that welled up in her heart, as well as all the past events, had to be cut off by her personally.
She can be so cruel as to force herself and get rid of Ji Hongwen and Hong Xuze, but how should she face her own son?
Everything that happened in the past was her debt to her son.
Ji Ziche completely ignored the regret, guilt and entanglement in her eyes, and remained calm as always without any ups and downs: "I'm glad you're okay, I'll take my leave."
After saying this, he turned and left, ignoring the eldest princess's sadness.
"Zi Che!"
When the princess was about to catch up, Song Yunxi stopped her.
"Yun Xi..."
Song Yunxi said bluntly: "If possible, I hope the princess will not bother my second brother anymore."
The eldest princess' pupils dilated in disbelief. Madam Liu supported her and said distressedly, "Miss, the princess is the second... the young master's biological mother!"
"so what?"
Song Yunxi was unmoved: "She has never fulfilled her motherly duties to my second brother. It is even more wrong for her to remember that she still has a biological son like my second brother just because she lost the adopted son she put all her efforts into, and hope to find the mother-son love she lost from him!"
Madam Liu also resented the eldest princess, but after learning the truth, she felt sorry for her: "But the eldest lady also knows that the princess was plotted against, and she is also a victim."
"Does the Princess think so too? Do you think you are also a victim?"
Song Yunxi asked the princess indifferently, but she didn't care and didn't expect her answer: "I admit that you are indeed a victim, but what does this have to do with my second brother? Why do you ask him to forgive you just because you are a victim? Your injury was not caused by him, but the injury to him was caused by you, his biological mother!"
Thinking of her son's disappointed look, the princess could no longer suppress her grief: "I am sorry for him!"
This was a rare opportunity, and Song Yunxi couldn't help but express the dissatisfaction that she had suppressed in her heart: "In fact, for you, Second Brother will never be your first choice unconditionally, nor will he be the most important one in your heart."
"You used to care about your promise to Ji Hongwen, so you were devoted to Ji Xuze. Just because my second brother is your biological son, you took it for granted that he could be ignored and neglected, and that no matter what you did, he would never leave you as his mother."
"Now that you know the truth, the first thing you think of is your debt to your second brother. You want to do everything you can to make it up to him, because that will make you feel better."
"But, have you ever thought about my second brother's feelings? Have you ever thought about how he felt when he learned that his biological father had changed from the person he had always known to someone else? You didn't!"
The princess instinctively retorted: "I didn't, I just wanted to ask for his forgiveness..."
Song Yunxi's eyes became colder and colder: "The damage has been done. It is impossible to make it disappear just by saying sorry!"
After saying this, he left without paying any more attention to the princess.
The princess could only look at Song Wentian pleadingly: "Wentian, I was really wrong..."
Song Wentian sighed softly: "It is up to Zi Che to decide what to do. Even though I am his master, I will never interfere with him."
After a pause, he added: "No matter what decision he makes, I will support him!"
