"What...what did you say?" Chen Shaoan's eyes widened in disbelief.
He was approached by someone who borrowed money, and when he went to jail, he thought about it.
Before spring, he stole the land deeds and house deeds of the Chen Mansion that his mother had hidden, and used them to borrow a huge sum of one hundred thousand taels of silver. In this way, he obtained all the examination questions from Mr. Li.
Now that his incident has come to light, it is appropriate for those people to go to the Chen Mansion to cause trouble.
However, he didn't expect those people to move so fast.
But that's right. Fraud in examinations is a serious crime. We don't know what the future will bring. Of course, borrowers must protect their capital as soon as possible.
Therefore, the focus of his attention was not on the borrowers who came to make trouble, but on... Su Nianyun's next sentence.
"Princess, what do you mean when you say someone else took Chen'er away?"
"It means literally," Su Nianyun said, "The child who has been raising by the old lady's side was finally confirmed not to be yours. Now the child has been taken away by his original parents."
"This is impossible!" Chen Shaoan was shocked and confused.
"I am sure that Chen'er is my biological child. There is no mistake. The couple must have cheated. How could the mother easily ask someone to take the child away?"
"You are sure that Chen'er is your biological son. This is true, but..."
Su Nianyun stared at Chen Shaoan meaningfully, "How are you sure that that child is Chen'er?"
"Princess, what do you mean? What do you know? You might as well tell me directly!"
Chen Shaoan is not stupid. By this time, he probably understands.
Su Nianyun's main purpose was not to sign the divorce letter at all, she was obviously just to add insult to injury.
In vain, he really thought she still had feelings for him just now.
How could he forget that he was not allowed to enter her yard a long time ago!
"I know a little bit about where the real Chen'er went..." Su Nianyun asked Chen Shaoan, "Do you really want to know?"
"Why don't you want to know, that's my biological son!"
Chen Shaoan's tone softened a bit, and he almost begged Su Nianyun.
"Princess, the grudge between the three of us is a matter between adults. I know that I have wronged you. And look, haven't I been punished now?"
Chen Shaoan pointed to his surrounding environment, "I am in jail now. If I don't rely on the princess's help, I may not have the chance to get out again in the rest of my life..."
Having said this, Chen Shaoan's face finally turned pale.
When he first entered prison, there were some things that he didn't dare to think about.
Now that Su Nianyun was here, he had to think about it carefully, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.
It's too late now to regret the reckless actions I did to get the top spot.
"No matter what...it doesn't involve children, please show your respect to the princess..."
Chen Shaoan has no other wishes now. Chen'er is his only flesh and blood. He hopes that Chen'er will be worry-free.
"I think you have misunderstood something. You don't think I did anything to your child, do you?"
Su Nianyun shook his head, "I'm not that despicable!"
"As early as when I asked Zhou Yao to come into the palace to help awaken your memory, Chen'er was no longer Chen'er... She is really a fan of the authorities..."
Su Nianyun sighed, "Let me tell you the truth, Zhou Yao was eager to marry He Guogong's son. She was afraid that the child would become a burden to her when she entered the Duke's palace, so she gave the child to someone else long ago!"
"Later, He Zhiqiu died unexpectedly, and Zhou Yao's hope of getting married was shattered. Just in time, I asked her to come into the house to take care of you, and she went back to look for the child she sent away..."
"Unfortunately, it is easy to give away a child, but it is difficult to get it back."
"Zhou Yao couldn't find that family and your son, and in order to get a place in Chen's house smoothly, he thought of buying another child of similar age and bringing him into the house."
"Really," Su Nianyun looked at him mockingly, "you have been with your biological child for so long, how come you can't even recognize whether it is your child?"
After listening to Su Nianyun's statement, Chen Shaoan's face turned pale.
He murmured in disbelief, "How is this possible? How...is it possible?"
"How is it impossible?"
Su Nianyun said, "Since you met Zhou Yao, she has done ridiculous things. Even if I don't tell you, don't you also know?"
"Perhaps, what I know is just the tip of the iceberg. You are the one who knows her deeply. You should know more."
Su Nianyun pulled at her sleeves and said, "Okay, I've told you enough today."
"Anyway, I will definitely do what I promised you after I got the letter of peace. I will help you get out of the prison door and stay with Zhou Yao."
Chen Shaoan watched Su Nianyun leave with blood-red eyes.
Just now, he prayed to the princess not to hate Zhou Yao and the others.
He treats her with all his heart, no matter how wrong she does, he can forgive her unconditionally.
But now, he couldn't wait to go out and kill Zhou Yao with his own hands.
After leaving the cell door, Su Nianyun took a long breath and said, "Wow, the air outside is so fresh!"
"Princess, you have stayed in the prison for too long." Chunhua helped Su Nianyun get on the carriage. "The prison is filled with all kinds of filth. No one will feel comfortable if you stay there for a long time."
"I'll go back and wash all your clothes. Then I'll smell the incense again to get rid of the bad luck."
Su Nianyun was noncommittal.
At this time, Su Da, who was driving the carriage, asked inside the carriage, "Little master, where should we go next?"
Su Nianyun saw that it was still early, and the debt collectors were still making trouble in Chen's house and she didn't know if it was over yet, so she decided not to go back for the time being.
"Let's go to Wangyue Tower to watch the song and dance performance. My princess is in a good mood today, so it's time for the silk, bamboo and wind music."
Soon, Su Da drove a carriage to Wangyue Tower.
Su Nianyun took Chunhua and Su Da directly into the box without paying attention to the figures following them.
Xiao Han's eyes widened as he watched Su Nianyun and others walking upstairs.
Just now, he was at the door of the prison of the Ministry of Punishments, staying with his master for almost an hour before he saw Princess Nianyun coming out of the prison.
"Master, Chen Shao'an has done such a thing. I didn't expect Princess Nianyun to still be devoted to him. It's just a visit in prison, and it took so long?"
He said this on purpose.
Because after his master saw Princess Nianyun coming out so late, the look on his face was obviously wrong.
He deliberately reminded his master that Princess Nianyun's feelings for her husband were not very receptive to outsiders.
Originally, when he saw Princess Nianyun's carriage leaving the prison, he wanted to drive the carriage back home.
Unexpectedly, the master asked the carriage to continue following Princess Nianyun.
Following this, we actually arrived at Wangyue Tower.
Now, Xiao Han's topic changed to, "Oh my God, how big is Princess Yun's heart these days?"
"Her husband is still in prison and doesn't know the way forward, but she turns around to watch a song and dance?!"
