Chapter 294 Who is the biological father?
Mu Jiangyue finished speaking.
I gulped down a mouthful of tea.
She had been keeping this guess in her heart for a long time, and today she finally got to say it.
Lu Qingyao was so shocked that she couldn't speak.
None of the members of this royal family are simple.
Some beat their wives and concubines, some poisoned their brothers and framed their brethren, and there was even someone like Princess Yuqing...
It was a complete mess, a den of filth.
Just as Miao Miao said, it really overturned her worldview.
But the most intriguing question is this: if the missing child wasn't Cao Fuma's, then whose was it?
"Ah Yue, have you figured out who the child's biological father is?"
Those who could get close to the eldest princess were either princes and ministers or princes and noblemen.
But she was the eldest princess, the most favored by Emperor Xuan, and could have any kind of man she wanted.
Why bother with such compromises, marrying Cao the Imperial Son-in-Law while pregnant?
Mu Jiangyue sighed and shook her head. "We all have our worries. Even a princess, as noble as she is, has things that trouble her. I haven't heard of her getting close to any young man. I'm afraid she has some unspeakable secret."
Lu Qingyao rested her chin on her hand and listened quietly.
“My husband once said that although the Emperor has never issued an edict, when it comes to choosing husbands for princesses, he usually chooses distant relatives of the imperial family. The princes-in-law almost always have honors but cannot hold any official positions with real power.” Mu Jiangyue felt that she had said too much and suddenly shut her mouth.
The father of the princess's child was probably a powerful person, and he probably didn't dare to reveal it because he was afraid that the emperor would be wary of him.
So far.
I can't think or talk about it anymore.
She can't keep things to herself; she knows too much that she doesn't say.
They will have trouble sleeping and eating, and will be filled with worry and anxiety.
Lu Qingyao withdrew her surprised gaze.
I couldn't help but sigh.
Even princesses, who are treated with the highest honors, sometimes have people they cannot have.
I'm afraid her beloved is either married or a powerful official; otherwise, there would be no need for her to do this.
Speaking of powerful ministers, those who are of similar age and can catch the eye of the eldest princess are the ideal candidates.
There shouldn't be many...
However, these are not things she should worry about.
Lu Qingyao smiled and said, "A-Yue, now that you've told me all your secrets, do you feel at ease?"
"Yeah, I feel relieved." Mu Jiangyue chuckled.
"Just be at ease. These words have reached their limit with me. You can't mention them to anyone else afterward." Lu Qingyao gestured towards her mouth.
He made a gesture of sealing his mouth.
Her best friend has always been like this since childhood; she can only feel at ease if she tells her any secrets she has.
After saying it, I stopped taking it to heart.
Lu Qingyao is definitely someone who can take things in stride; she treats such matters as mere entertainment.
That's all I've heard of it.
Mu Jiangyue nodded like a chick pecking at rice, and looking at the snacks Xiuxiu had made on the table, she seemed to have an even bigger appetite.
evening.
sunset.
After dinner, Mu Jiangyue went home.
Jiang Miaomiao was surprised to find that her aunt had forgotten her son at her house when she left.
Not a single word was mentioned.
Xiao Cheng'an is currently playing football with his second brother in the backyard.
Hearing that her mother had left, she didn't react at all, and just held Lu Qingyao's hand.
"Aunt Qingyao, I'm not going back. My father is away on business, and my mother keeps beating me. Can I stay at your house for a few more days?"
Miao Miao's family's food is really delicious.
And the chickens, ducks, geese, and other animals in the backyard are much more interesting than those in my own home.
Yan Cheng'an was hoping his mother would forget about him, and that he could stay here for a month or two.
After nightfall.
Before sleep.
Lu Qingyao called her son and daughter over and asked, "Your maternal grandmother and aunts and cousins will arrive in the capital in seven days. Have you thought about what gifts to prepare?"
Jiang Miaomiao shook her head.
No one told her to prepare a gift.
Besides, she had no idea what her grandmother and the others liked.
“Mother, I’ve prepared it. I’ve even prepared one for my sister.” Jiang Ziyan said, taking out several picture albums.
Jiang Miaomiao felt that the face looked so familiar.
Open a book.
……
Good heavens! The booklet features a little boy chasing chickens and wolves.
Why does she look so much like her?
I flipped through a few pages, but it wasn't like her.
It's actually her.
From her first words to now, she has grown up.
Sucking on fingers, biting toes, drooling, blowing bubbles and snoring...
She would bend over and rummage around, climbing trees, catching chickens and herding sheep—all sorts of bizarre actions and postures.
There were even people pooping.
Second brother, really, can't you draw something nicer?
This is practically her dark history; how can she ever face anyone again?
Jiang Miaomiao quickly hugged him tightly, saying, "Second brother is too mean, you're not allowed to look."
Mother and Aunt Xiuxiu were already laughing so hard they were doubled over.
Yan Cheng'an's eyes widened as he tried to snatch her booklet.
Jiang Ziyan tried to persuade his sister, "Look, Grandma has come back from such a place after a long journey. She must be very tired. Seeing you and smiling happily is better than anything else, and better than any gift."
Jiang Miaomiao: ……
Impressed!
Whatever words came out of the second brother's mouth were so irrefutable that no one could refute them.
Never mind, just to make my grandmother smile.
I have no choice but to swallow my pride and sacrifice my looks.
After putting away the booklet, Mother solemnly instructed, "Someone will be moving in next door in a few days. That person is a princess of the current dynasty. We can't afford to offend her. When you play football or fly kites, don't go near that wall, understand?"
Jiang Ziyan nodded. Ever since he moved in, he had already thought that someone would eventually live in the house next door.
They weren't princesses, noble ladies, or princes; they were simply rewards bestowed by the emperor upon meritorious officials.
There was nothing unexpected about it.
I'm just worried about my little sister, who's like a monkey, always jumping around.
She has an incredibly strong sense of curiosity.
While he was in the restroom, she actually discussed with Yan Cheng'an about digging for treasure next door!
Jiang Ziyan gently pinched his younger sister's nose and looked into her bright eyes. "Miaomiao, I'm talking about you. Don't wander around that wall all the time. And that dog hole in the corner, I'll have someone seal it up first thing tomorrow morning. And don't even think about digging for treasure next door."
Jiang Miaomiao: ……
Is his brother a tapeworm in his stomach? How did he know?
She only told Yan Cheng'an about it.
Because she had observed that the guards around the little boy were all highly skilled.
Moreover, she had sent Qiuqiu to investigate, and it turned out that the neighbors were just ordinary servants who did cleaning and sweeping.
Moreover, they became extremely lazy after losing their master.
My mother and aunt were just worrying unnecessarily.
Then all the family's attention was focused on the little girl.
Lu Qingyao and Xiuxiu exchanged a glance, feeling somewhat guilty.
I need to be careful what I say in the future; this kid seems to know everything.
They'll probably copy them too.
