Princess Jiaming's condition is much better than Qin Xiaoxiao imagined.

After deciding on the child's nickname, Qin Xiaoxiao took the initiative to find a Feng Shui master and bury the child next to the cemetery of her father, queen, mother and concubine without waiting for Qin Xiaoxiao to persuade her.

I thought that with his grandparents accompanying him, he would no longer be lonely and scared.

According to custom, such a child who was silent since birth could not be buried in the Zhang family's ancestral grave. Princess Jiaming did not want the child to be contaminated by the Zhang family's filth, so she decided to bury him next to his parents' mausoleum.

It was against the rules to do so, but she was the only one in King Fu's lineage, and now that she had lost her only child, the royal family would not care about these trivial matters with her even if they were unwilling to do so.

What's more, the child was only buried next to the mausoleum of Prince Fu and Princess Fu, not in the cemetery. It was just a matter of turning a blind eye.

Jiaming County was mainly engaged in confinement to support her health, so the arrangements for Fusheng's funeral could only be left to others. She hated the Zhang family so much that she naturally did not want them to interfere.

Qin Xiaoxiao had no experience in this area, and it was not convenient for her to handle this with a big belly, so she selected two people who had arranged funerals from the few people Princess Protector had given her to come over to help, and asked them to make sure Fu Sheng's

The funeral arrangements are in order.

Princess Jiaming trusted her and saw that she was doing her best for Fusheng's funeral. He held her hand and said touchedly: "Xiaoxiao, thank you."

Qin Xiaoxiao shook her head: "Auntie, if you really want to thank me, just take good care of yourself and don't make me worry every day and have trouble sleeping every night."

Princess Jiaming's eyes turned red, and she raised her head slightly to prevent tears from falling. After a while, her mood calmed down: "Xiaoxiao, I will listen to your words and take good care of yourself. Don't worry about me anymore. Don't get hurt.

The child in the womb.”

Seeing that she didn't seem to be lying, Qin Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment and asked, "What are your plans for the future?"

Princess Jiaming looked outside the house and saw Lan Zhi kneeling in the yard, crying and coaxing Teng'er who couldn't kneel down. A strange look flashed in her eyes: "If he lives a happy life, I will lead him to live an ordinary life."

My little life. Now that Fu Sheng is gone, I have nothing to look forward to. I will probably die of old age in this small house."

Qin Xiaoxiao felt nervous and advised: "Auntie, you are only in your early twenties. There is no need to get entangled with those idiots from the Zhang family. Why not leave here and live your own free life..."

The family property purchased by Prince Fu and Princess Fu during their lifetimes is all in the hands of the cousin. Although the annual income is not as good as Brother Li's several shops and farms, it is enough for the cousin to live the rest of his life in peace and prosperity. There is no need to spend too much money on himself.

All my years are buried here.

What she was most worried about was that her cousin had the idea of ​​taking revenge on the Zhang family and destroying the Zhang family together.

"Xiaoxiao, what you said makes sense, I will think about it clearly." Princess Jiaming seemed to be attracted by the beautiful scene she described. She thought carefully for a while and gave an ambiguous answer.

Qin Xiaoxiao thought she had nothing to worry about, and continued: "Auntie, you don't have to worry about being criticized for leaving the Zhang family with the divorce letter. As time goes by, no one will hold on to this matter. The most important thing is that you live a comfortable life."

Princess Jiaming didn't want to talk about this topic: "I'll wait until I recover. I will consider it carefully."

When Qin Xiaoxiao saw this, he couldn't persuade her any more and had to talk about other things.

The next day, the Feng Shui master selected a cemetery for Fu Sheng and set a date for burial.

Qin Xiaoxiao's people spent a lot of money to hire several highly respected masters and asked them to chant sutras and pray for blessings every day.

From the beginning to the end, Princess Jiaming never asked about the Zhang family. Even when Zhang Hu came to ask her how she wanted to punish Lan Zhi and Teng'er, she did not respond directly. She only ordered Lian Xin and others not to see anyone from the Zhang family until she recovered.

.

Other members of the Zhang family came over in the name of visiting, but they were all turned away.

When they learned that the Chief of Jiaming County buried Fu Sheng next to the mausoleum of Prince Fu and his wife, the Zhang family, including Zhang Hu, felt inexplicably uneasy, but they did not object to her doing so.

It was just the sound of the monks chanting sutras that annoyed Mrs. Zhang so much that she said to her confidants: "I gave birth to a stillborn child for no reason, but it actually disturbed the whole family. It really is a thing born from a mother but not a mother!"

"

With such a sharp and acrimonious expression, it was completely impossible to tell that these were the words spoken by a dignified first-class lady. Fortunately, Princess Jiaming had shown great respect to her over the years. Whenever she had a headache or a fever, she would always greet her.

As a result, Princess Jiaming had a difficult delivery that day, so she bribed the midwife with money and asked the midwife to keep her baby safe. She didn't show any affection for Princess Jiaming, and she really fed the dog out of filial piety.

No, it's worse than a dog. At least no dog that enjoys the care and love of its owner will in turn kill its owner.

On the day Fusheng was buried, Princess Jiaming ignored Qin Xiaoxiao's dissuasion and dragged her still-unrecovered body to the cemetery to see Fusheng for the last time. She tearfully held a handful of soil and covered the small coffin to say her final words to Fusheng.

farewell.

After returning from the mausoleum, she fell seriously ill and could not get up for several days.

After she recovered a little and was barely able to walk around, Zhang Shiren, who was also recovering from a serious illness, barged in regardless of the obstruction of Lian Xin and others, and asked through gritted teeth: "What are you going to do to let Lan Er and her go?"

Teng'er?"

Emperor Yuan He asked Zhang Hu to punish Lan Zhi and Teng'er severely until Princess Jiaming was satisfied. Life was very difficult for Lan Zhi these days, and she had to kneel outside the yard for four hours every day to apologize to Princess Jiaming.

In such a cold season, if you kneel for a long time, your knees will become useless. Lan Zhi's body does not seem to be very strong. She fell ill after kneeling for less than three days in a row, which made Zhang Shiren feel bad.

Teng'er was not exempt from punishment. Considering his youth and ignorance, he could only kneel for an hour every day. Even so, he couldn't bear the crime and fell ill.

Today I heard that Princess Jiaming was in better health. Lan Zhi got up crying and wanted to apologize to Princess Jiaming. Zhang Shiren couldn't bear it and felt that Princess Jiaming was too vicious, so he angrily ran over to stand up for the two of them.

.

Princess Jiaming raised her head and stared at him quietly, as if she wanted to see him through.

This is the first time the two of them have met in more than half a month.

Zhang Shiren was so frightened by her sight that his arrogance weakened unconsciously: "What on earth do you want to do? Lan'er is innocent, she didn't harm you at all, why didn't you let her go? And Teng'er, that night

It was too dark and I accidentally knocked you down. What does a four-year-old child know? Why are you so cruel that you have to punish him?"

Princess Jiaming drove away Lian Xin and others, with a sarcastic look on her face: "That scoundrel is not worthy of being my child!"

Zhang Shiren's face changed greatly, and he yelled angrily: "Yes, Teng'er was born to me and Lan Zhi, but he is listed in the Zhang family's genealogy and is recorded in your name. That is your child, and he is a serious member of the Zhang family."

My legitimate son, I cannot allow you to deny it!"

He didn't know that Qin Xiaoxiao and others, who knew Teng'er's life experience, were concerned about Princess Jiaming's health and did not tell her that Teng'er was the father of him and Lan Zhi, thinking that she already knew the truth.

"That's it, that's it..." Princess Jiaming murmured, looking at Zhang Shiren with deep-seated hatred in her eyes: "I know that your Zhang family doesn't value blood, doesn't like my life, and refuses to find a good doctor.

Make peace with the midwife and save him. It turns out that the evil bastard was born to you adulterers. I should have thought of it earlier!"

Lying in bed these days, she still couldn't figure out why the Zhang family treated their mother and son so cruelly and never cared about their life or death. If Xiaoxiao hadn't invited the imperial doctor and midwife in time, both mother and son would have died that day.

Until Lan Zhi and Teng'er knelt outside the yard for the first time, she saw Lan Zhi caring for Teng'er in every way, and the tears she shed for Teng'er didn't seem to be fake. For the first time in the light of the fire, she had doubts about their relationship.

.

She said that just to test, but it confirmed her guess.

Zhang Shiren realized that he had let something slip, so he simply spoke openly: "If you want to blame it, blame yourself for being useless and unable to continue the incense of the Zhang family, otherwise my grandfather would not agree to do this!"

Princess Jiaming took a deep breath and stared directly into Zhang Shiren's eyes: "That's the case, why didn't you ask the imperial doctor to save Fusheng that day? Fusheng is also a bloodline of the Zhang family!"

Zhang Shiren sneered and said: "At the very beginning of your pregnancy, the imperial doctor diagnosed that the child in your belly was born with deficiencies and needed to be carefully raised without any room for error. Not to mention that he was born prematurely and suffered from dystocia at eight months. Who knows whether he will survive?

It will be a useless medicine jar!"

It is better not to have such a child than not to have such a child, and to live is to suffer!

"Pah!" Princess Jiaming saw through his thoughts, and without hesitation raised her hand and hit him hard on the face, her eyes blood red: "Zhang Shiren, you are not a human, you are a beast!"

It's ridiculous that she is blind and has been sleeping in the same bed for many years, but she didn't see his true face! If she had known this, if she had known this... she would not have entangled with him, nor would she have been unable to see him.

A glimpse of this world!

Zhang Shiren never expected that she would dare to make a move. After reacting, he became angry and pushed her hard: "You bitch, how dare you hit me!"

Princess Jiaming's body had not yet recovered. She was pushed hard by him and immediately hit the table, knocking the cups on it and falling to the floor, making a harsh sound.

"Master!" Lian Xin and others heard the movement in the room and rushed in. Seeing their master lying weakly on the table, they anxiously ran over to help her.

Princess Jiaming slowly stood up and looked at Zhang Shiren with cold eyes.

Zhang Shiren had never known that she would have such a look in her eyes, and for some reason she felt cold all over her body.

He quickly suppressed the fear in his heart and said sarcastically: "Don't think that just because you are a princess of the royal family, you can do whatever you want. Go out and inquire and see what your reputation has become. I will divorce you without a divorce letter.

It’s time to be grateful! It’s also a good thing that Prince Fu and Princess Fu left early, otherwise sooner or later, you, a daughter with a bad reputation, will be angry and die!”

After that, he walked away under the glare of Lian Xin and others.

Relying on Zhang Hu's power and knowing that Emperor Yuan He would not do anything to the Zhang family for this matter, he didn't even bother to do anything superficial.

"Master, are you okay?" Seeing Princess Jiaming's expression blank and silent for a long time, Lian Xin knew that she was stimulated by those harsh words, and she once again hated Zhang Shiren and the Zhang family.

Princess Jiaming closed her eyes and slowly sat down with her hands on the edge of the table: "Lian Xin, when did you know that person's identity?"

Lian Xin's heart skipped a beat and she knelt down suddenly: "Master, master, yes, this is what I heard when I asked Madam Hou for help that day. When Madam Hou mentioned it to the Princess Protector, I heard this."

Princess Jiaming suddenly understood why Qin Xiaoxiao had become cold towards that scoundrel overnight.

Lian Xin carefully paid attention to her face, fearing that she would misunderstand Qin Xiaoxiao's painstaking efforts, and hurriedly explained: "Master, Mrs. Hou didn't mean to hide it from you. Originally, she wanted to tell you after knowing the truth, but she didn't expect that you were diagnosed with HIV.

"Pulse. Your fetal condition has always been bad. Madam Hou was worried that irritating you would affect your and your young master's health. Later... later you became unwell, and Madam Hou did not dare to say anything."

Princess Jiaming glanced at her flat belly, and lifted Lian Xin up with her own hands: "How could I not understand Xiaoxiao's painstaking efforts? It's because I was too stupid, and I didn't find any clues for so many years."

Lian Xin secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said guiltily: "I was at fault. I concealed it from you. Please punish me, Master!"

Princess Jiaming shook her head: "You did this for my own good. How could I punish you regardless of good or evil?"

After saying that, she was silent for a while and suddenly asked: "Lian Xin, how long have you served me?"

Lian Xin was stunned and replied: "I came to serve you when I was twelve years old. It has been ten years."

"It's been ten years!" Princess Jiaming sighed softly, and then asked the other maids the same question.
