Chapter 40 Let Me See Her For The Last Time

Chapter 40 Let me see her one last time

She couldn't believe that these were words spoken by a father.

But……

"Apart from this, is there any other way? There are only two ways now, either to save her from the cold palace, or to kill her. Do you have any way to save her?"

Of course, it is impossible for Ma to save Zhong Chuchu.

"But...but she is our daughter after all..." Ma said.

"How could I not know that she was our daughter? To be honest, do you think I would just let it go?

But now Chu Chu wants to drag our whole family to be buried with her. I am the head of the family, and I have to consider not only her, but also the entire Zhong family, Yingying and Chang Lin.

Think about it clearly, Chang Lin or Chu Chu, which one do you want?"

Zhong Changlin is the son of Mr. Ma, he is only thirteen years old. Although he is still young, his talent, learning and appearance are among the best among his peers. He is now studying in the Imperial College and is deeply loved by his husband.

Zhong Changlin is Zhong Ming's eldest son, but now Zhong Ming has brought him out to let Ma make a decision.

You must know how difficult it is to have this son Ma. Thinking back to the time when she gave birth to two daughters in succession, Mrs. Zhong became even more dissatisfied with her. She insisted on Zhong Ming accepting her natal niece as his equal wife no matter what.

That was Ma's darkest period. He had to guard against the little vixen in the courtyard day and night, and he was also afraid that the old lady would really marry Zhong Ming.

She knew in her heart that according to the old lady's eccentric character, if she only waited for the common wife to come in, how could she survive?

It was at this time that Zhong Changlin came and asked her to give birth to her son, which gave her a hard time and firmly established her position as the mistress of the house.

Now Zhong Ming asked her to choose between Chang Lin and Chu Chu.

The palms and backs of my hands are full of flesh, but after all, my son is heavier.

Ma hesitated for a moment, and finally made a choice. Looking at Zhongming, he said with great difficulty: "I...I want Changlin..."

Hearing that she finally figured it out, Zhong Ming felt relieved.

During this period of time, he really had a headache due to Ma's fuss.

Looking at his wife's red and swollen eyes and haggard face, he finally couldn't bear to pat her and said, "I'm sorry for you."

"In the future, when Yingying has established a firm foothold in the palace, our Zhong family will give birth to a prince, who will be Chang Lin's nephew. All of this will pave the way for Chang Lin."

He said a few words of comfort and turned to leave. Looking at it, he looked like he was going to the little vixen in the backyard again.

"Old...Master..."

Ma called him from behind.

Zhong Ming turned around and saw her eyes filled with tears. She looked at him with great pain: "Can I...can I go into the palace to see Chu Chu again?"

After all, she is her daughter...

It's the flesh that fell from her body. A man can never understand the feeling of a mother. He wishes he could bear all the suffering on her behalf.

Zhong Ming felt a bit of compassion when he saw Ma's appearance.

"Okay." He responded.

"I'll go and tell His Majesty, and if I think about it, he won't embarrass me on this matter."

Zhong Ming promised Ma and kept his promise. The next day he went to court and asked Shen Muchi for the favor.

At dusk on the second day, Ma carried his things and drove the carriage into the palace.

Before approaching Beiyuan, Ma heard voices inside.

What he said was: "Zhong Ming, for your career ambitions, you can even use your biological daughter. You are so cruel..."

"You bought and sold your official position and harmed loyal people. You will not die a good death!"

"Let the people of the world see how hypocritical and selfish you, the chief minister respected by all the people, are, how can you be regarded as the prime minister of the dynasty?"

"Father, mother, do you really not care about Chu Chu?"

…………

Hearing the last sentence made Ma's heart throb violently.

The spring wind was still strong, making her eyes warm.

Holding the food box in his hand, Mr. Ma quickly walked up and said to the guard: "I am here to visit the Jade Concubine according to your Majesty's order."

When the guard heard this, he immediately gave way to her.

Ma approached Beiyuan and stepped on it, only to find a pile of dead branches mixed with broken rubble.

Zhong Chuchu stood alone in the deserted courtyard, her hair was messy, her clothes were dirty, she was shouting hysterically outside with a crazy look.

As she shouted, she laughed and sat down on the ground.

"Don't care about me, don't care anymore, haha..."

"No one wants me anymore..."

She was clearly smiling, but Ma was heartbroken to see her. She hadn't seen her for just a few days. How could her daughter have become like this?

A girl who used to love beauty so much is now no different from a madman.

With a lump in her throat, she shouted: "Chu Chu!"

When Zhong Chuchu heard this voice, she was stunned for a moment, turned her head suddenly, and saw Ma standing outside the courtyard.

"mother?"

She seemed a little unsure.

Then she stood up suddenly, it was her mother, who was standing in front of her if it wasn't her mother?

"mother!"

She ran towards Ma.

"It's really you, it's really..."

Ma nodded repeatedly, looked at her daughter standing in front of her with distress, and brushed her hair from her forehead: "It's Mom, Mom is here to see you."

"Why did you come here?"

As soon as Zhong Chuchu saw her mother, she couldn't hold back her tears and asked with a choked voice.

"I thought... I thought... you really don't want me anymore."

Ma's heart felt like needles pricking her heart when she saw Zhong Chuchu like this, and she quickly changed the subject: "Look, what delicious food did mom bring you?"

Zhong Chuchu watched as Ma opened the food box in her hand.

"It's a lion's head." She said happily.

"Yes, don't you like to eat the lion's head made by mom the most? Mom woke up early today and made it specially for you."

"Um."

Zhong Chuchu carried the food box and happily walked to the cold palace, put it on the table and ate it.

Ma sat opposite her and watched her daughter eat.

"Is it delicious?" she asked.

"Yeah." Zhong Chuchu nodded repeatedly.

"Eat more, look at you, why have you lost so much weight?"

"Hey, mother, you don't even know that the servants here are all trying to flatter me and the food they bring me is sour. Sometimes, there's not even any sour rice at all.

I'm here alone and miss your cooking.

Mom, can you bring it to me in a few days?"

Zhong Chuchu was immersed in eating while talking to Mr. Ma, but found that Mr. Ma did not answer for a long time.

She raised her head hesitantly and saw Mr. Ma sitting opposite her, crying.

"Mom?" Zhong Chuchu called her.

"Huh?" Ma suddenly raised his head.

"What’s wrong with you?"

"No...it's okay..." But Ma said it was okay, but his expression didn't look like it was okay.

Zhong Chuchu looked at her wiping away tears randomly and had some doubts in her heart.

"Mom, let me tell you, in a few days, you can bring me the lion's head again, okay?"

But Ma still didn't answer.

She tried to change the topic: "Chu Chu..."

"Don't call me, I'll let you answer my words!" Zhong Chuchu suddenly said loudly.
