Chapter 846: Chapter 844: The Princess of the Great Wei Dynasty
He knew Long Shuli was just an image, yet he stubbornly said, “Not every emperor and Your Highness would let their wives experience the plot of a palace drama.”
“Pfft!”
Su Yingxue couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
“Alright, alright! Even if you were to marry an emperor or Your Highness, mother wouldn’t be able to oppose it. However, that empress of your Great Cheng Dynasty is no good. She wanted to imprison me before, to force me to give her Drunken Beauty. At that time, to protect you, I had no choice but to give it to her. However, before I left the palace, I told Chu Mingyuan about this affair. The empress will probably be disliked by Chu Mingyuan for a lifetime, ending up as a lonely empress in her old age.”
Su Yingxue’s doubts were immediately cleared. So, it was her mother’s doing that the emperor and empress were at odds.
She admired her mother’s tactics deeply. To deal with someone like the empress, you have to strike right at her heart!
Who let her threaten her mother, after all?
Long Shuli chatted as if talking about family affairs, leaving many words for Su Hao and Su Yingxue. Su Hao and Su Yingxue sat down and didn’t finish watching the recording until night fell.
At the end of the recording, Long Shuli entrusted them with a task, “The body mother transmigrated into belongs to a princess from the Great Wei Dynasty who went missing. Since I did not know how to face her family, I never returned to Great Wei, nor did I mention this to you. But since I’ve occupied this body, I owe her family an explanation. Both of you, remember to take a trip to Great Wei for me, and tell them the truth.”
Su Yingxue suddenly understood, “So that’s it!”
Her mother was actually a princess of Great Wei. No wonder Sheng Ping said her mother had complicated relations with Great Wei. No wonder Qin Muyan thought she looked familiar!
As darkness fell and the image gradually blurred, Long Shuli’s last words were, “Yingxue, Hao’er, mother loves you both very much.”
“Mother…”
“Mother…”
Su Yingxue, like Su Hao, cried inconsolably.
Though Long Shuli didn’t spend much time with them, she truly loved them, her children.
Su Yingxue carefully put the box away, holding it in her hands like a treasured possession, “I don’t know if this can be kept, if I can ever watch it again.”
“Go ask Rong Sheng. She would know,” Chu Yihan said as he rubbed the back of Su Yingxue’s head, seldom seeing her cry so much like a little rabbit.
Su Yingxue nodded.
Su Hao composed himself and gave Chu Yihan a formal bow, “Your Highness, the troops are unorganized. I will go attend to them.”
“Alright.”
Chu Yihan agreed.
Seeing him leave, Su Yingxue was somewhat puzzled, “Why isn’t brother staying with us?”
Chu Yihan bent down and kissed her, “Because you have a husband now.”
How could Su Hao interfere with her happiness?
Su Yingxue smiled shyly, her expression sweet and a little embarrassed.
Chu Yihan approached her and knelt down, “Come on up.”
“Eh? Hubby, are you going to give me a piggyback? I’m not injured, and you still have wounds.”
“These injuries are nothing to worry about. How could I let you tire yourself out?” Chu Yihan said indulgently.
Su Yingxue’s pretty face beamed with happiness.
She climbed onto Chu Yihan’s back, and he carried her step by step down the mountain.
With the full moon hanging high, Su Yingxue felt even the night wind in the mountains was warm, as if everything in the world was light and clear.
She intended to honor her mother’s final wishes, to go to Great Wei, to find her mother’s relatives.
For now, she had someone to confide in.
After resting for a night with Chu Yihan, Su Yingxue went in search of Qin Muyan.
Logically, if her mother was a princess of Great Wei, then she would be Qin Muyan’s aunt, which would make Qin Muyan her blood-related cousin.
