A strong farm girl is busy getting rich
Chapter 289 Get the Letter
Madam Zheng continued, "It was three years later when we returned from the border, and Dong Yuehe had become the most favored imperial concubine.
Originally, Dong Yuehe and I had little contact after I got married, and since I had been away from Beijing for so long, our relationship naturally faded after I came back. I couldn't return this letter.
In the blink of an eye, more than a decade has passed. Dong Yuehe's son has grown up, and the emperor's other princes have also grown up. The princes' mothers will naturally plan for the future of their children and prepare to compete for that position.
Prime Minister Dong is from the family of Concubine Dong, so he naturally supports the Second Prince, but my master chose to stand on the side of the First Prince, who is now the Crown Prince. This put him in opposition to the Second Prince, and even made Dong Yuehe and I hostile to each other.
well! "
Madam Zheng sighed imperceptibly and continued, "Until a year ago, something happened to the Zheng family and the whole family was sentenced to exile. I know that the incident of the Zheng family this time is closely related to the instigation of the Second Prince's faction.
Before we got married, Dong Yuehe and I were good sisters who grew up together. But after we got married, we became enemies because of our different positions.
Thinking about these things, I suddenly remembered this letter. An idea suddenly came to my mind, which was to use this letter to threaten Dong Yuehe and force the Second Prince to stop, so that our whole family might not have to be exiled!
When Dong Yuehe asked me to deliver the letter, I had not yet married, so the letter has been hidden in the secret room of my boudoir.
So I asked someone to take a message to my family, asking them to find the letter and bring it to me when they saw me off the next day.
Things went smoothly, and the letter arrived in my hands the next day. I wanted to seize the last chance to change the situation, so I immediately gave Dong Yuehe a message. "
Shen Qingqian continued, "So, Concubine Dong didn't know about it before, and you didn't help her send the letter at all. She only found out about it when you threatened her during the exile?"
Madam Zheng nodded and said, "Yes, it took many years for Prince Xiaoyao to return to the capital. Even if they had the opportunity to meet privately, they might not mention the letter. Besides, if Concubine Dong knew that I had hidden her letter, she would have taken action against me long ago!"
Shen Qingqian knew what happened next without Madam Zheng telling her. It was that Concubine Dong did not compromise, but chose to kill and silence her.
Madam Zheng was desperate and was trying every possible means to find a cure. Their Zheng family was already in a desperate situation at that time, so how could they threaten Concubine Dong? Instead, they brought disaster upon themselves!
Shen Qingqian said: "Thank you Madam Zheng for clearing up my doubts. I will take the letter."
Madam Zheng wanted to ask Shen Qingqian what she wanted to do with the letter, but after thinking about it, she didn't ask. She just said, "We can't live here for free. I see that this villa is so big, but there are not many people working. How about you arrange some servants for us?"
Shen Qingqian smiled and said, "Mrs. Zheng, you don't have to be polite. Just stay here. Maybe you can go back to your own home in a short time!"
Mrs. Zheng's eyes widened suddenly and she asked, "What do you mean, young lady?"
Shen Qingqian smiled and said, "I went to the northern border some time ago. I heard that General Zheng Hong helped the army win a battle. Maybe if the emperor is happy, he will offset the merits and demerits and release your whole family!"
Madam Zheng said a little excitedly: "Is what the young lady said true? Does the young lady know if my master and the young masters are okay?"
Shen Qingqian said: "General Zheng Hong and his son seem to be serving in Longsheng City. I heard that the prefect of Longsheng City and your son were classmates, so he should be able to take care of you. Madam, don't worry.
As for whether you can be pardoned, it depends on the emperor's decision. Of course, it also depends on your family's luck!"
Madam Zheng seemed to see a glimmer of hope and said happily: "Young lady is truly a noble lady of our Zheng family. Not only did she save us, but she also brought us such good news. If the Zheng family can really be revived in the future, we will definitely repay the young lady's kindness."
Shen Qingqian said a few more polite words, then said goodbye to Mrs. Zheng and left.
On the other side, Han Qingshan went to see Yingzi again. Unlike yesterday's awkwardness, today, he mustered up the courage to come because he planned to express his feelings to Yingzi.
Yingzi never liked to put on makeup, and she didn't put on any makeup during these days of recuperation. However, she had thick eyebrows, big eyes, and long eyelashes. Since she didn't go out these days, her skin was well maintained, and she had the kind of heroic beauty.
Today she wore a lotus pink silk skirt and a light blue jacket, which made her look more youthful, beautiful, charming and lovely.
Han Qingshan liked her more and more. He blushed and said, "Miss Yingzi, I like you and want to marry you. Can you promise to marry me?"
After saying that, she looked at Yingzi nervously, as if she was waiting for judgment.
Yingzi was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect him to suddenly confess! However, she was not the kind of shy lady. Since she already knew Han Qingshan's feelings, she would face this problem directly.
She said, "Deputy General Han, can I ask who are your family members? Can you decide your marriage yourself?"
Han Qingshan was relieved when he saw Yingzi did not reject him directly, and quickly replied: "Miss Yingzi, my parents died when I was ten years old, and I lived with my uncle, learned martial arts, joined the army, and stationed at the border.
My uncle also died in the war. The only relative left is my eldest sister, but she has already married. I am alone now, so I can decide on my own marriage.”
Yingzi was frightened by Chen Shijun's parents, and thought that Han Qingshan was a good person who was alone. But she also felt that Han Qingshan was a little pitiful. She herself was an orphan with only a grandfather, so she felt the same way.
Seeing Yingzi was deep in thought and silent, Han Qingshan said again: "Miss Yingzi, if you can agree to marry me, I will ask the emperor for grace to stay in the capital. I have made a contribution this time, and you can stay as long as you are willing!"
Yingzi had thought about it after Han Qingshan saw her yesterday. She had liked Chen Shijun in the past, partly because she had met him when she was young and her heart was moved for the first time, and it was unforgettable.
Part of the reason was that Chen Shijun was handsome, elegant, and had a clean and bookish air that attracted her. In fact, Chen Shijun was not suitable for her.
Han Qingshan is a real and pure person, suitable for someone like her who has no ulterior motives.
Of course, she didn't hate Han Qingshan either, and feelings could be cultivated slowly.
So Yingzi made a decision quickly. She said with a firm look in her eyes: "Okay, I agree!"
