Chapter 93 The Eighth Princess in the Cage
In Shangjing City, all the noble ladies were full of envy and jealousy towards Li Jingshu. They always talked about her sourly: "Oh, who made her so lucky to be born into such a prominent family! As the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, it is natural for her to become the Crown Princess!"
"Yes, yes! In the future, she will definitely ascend to the supreme throne of queen and become the mother of the country!"
However, some people retorted: "Don't talk nonsense! The world is unpredictable. Who knows what kind of changes will happen in the future? Maybe the situation will change completely one day!" Although such voices were weak, they caused a ripple in everyone's hearts, as if foreshadowing the impermanence and unpredictability of fate.
The eighth princess Chu Caiwei was originally a princess, but soon after she married Zhang Ji, she suffered unprecedented neglect and abandonment. Zhang Ji and his mother treated her like a piece of grass and imprisoned her in the backyard, fearing that her existence would interfere with the close relationship between Zhang's father and son and the third prince.
Chu Caiwei's life was extremely difficult, but what was frustrating was that any news about her plight seemed unable to reach the ears of the Queen and the Crown Prince. She was like a prisoner trapped on an isolated island, helpless and desperate.
One day, when Chu Caiwei accidentally heard a woman who was in charge of guarding her in the backyard chatting, she couldn't help but feel sad. The woman said, "I heard that the prince is going to have a grand wedding with the prime minister's daughter. Do you think the one we are holding here will try to go to the prince's wedding?"
This sentence was like a sharp sword, deeply hurting Chu Caiwei's heart. A glimmer of hope ignited in her silent heart again. Perhaps, attending the prince's wedding would give her the opportunity to meet the queen and the prince again and tell them about her experience. But she thought about it again, now that she was under house arrest, how could she easily leave this forbidden backyard?
Chu Caiwei returned to her room silently, tears falling quietly. She knew that it was not easy to change the status quo! She could not leave the backyard of Zhang's house without help.
Another burly woman with a face full of flesh spat fiercely and cursed, "Bah! Stop talking nonsense! How could our master allow this lowly woman to step out of the backyard! Don't you know? The master has always claimed that she is insane. As long as the Queen and the Crown Prince have a little concern for her, how can they just sit back and do nothing!"
At this time, a man with a rough and hoarse voice interrupted and said, "Alas, back then, this was the eldest princess that His Majesty doted on the most, but now she has ended up like this."
Suddenly, a sharp, piercing and sarcastic voice came from outside the window: "Humph, it's because she is shameless! She has completely disgraced the Dazhao royal family!"
Someone murmured quietly, "I have heard people say that she seemed to have been schemed against by someone and ended up like this..."
Someone immediately retorted, "What plot was made against her? My distant cousin works at the Xianwang Mansion. He heard with his own ears that this woman tried to humiliate Prince Xiao, but ended up shooting herself in the foot!"
Finally, the man angrily spat, "Bah! What a shameless bitch! How can a scumbag like her be qualified to touch a person as noble as Xiao Shizi who is as noble as an immortal!"
"In fact, my master loved her at first, but you don't know how fierce she is! That time, she deliberately poured scalding tea on the master, causing him to be severely scalded; another time, she took advantage of the master's unpreparedness and secretly poisoned his food. If it hadn't been discovered in time, I'm afraid the master would have died long ago! What's more outrageous is that she even almost made the master a eunuch. She is simply insane! Tsk tsk tsk tsk..."
Hearing this, everyone gasped, shook their heads and sighed, expressing disbelief. At this moment, Chu Caiwei was lying lifelessly on the bed, staring at the mosquito net above her head with empty eyes and a trance. She is now under house arrest in the backyard of Zhang's house, completely isolated from the outside world. Zhang Ji and his son announced to the public that she had gone crazy because she missed Xiao Shizi too much.
However, in a bustling and noisy place like Shangjing, who would really pity her? Her relatives and friends who were once close to her now avoided her as if she were a disaster.
Even the two personal maids Meixiang and Huixiang who had entered the palace with her were not spared. After Zhang Liu had abolished their martial arts, they were thrown to Zhang Ji like garbage, and he bullied and insulted them at will.
Mei Xiang endured the pain in her body and staggered over with a bowl of steaming porridge. She carefully placed the bowl on the table and called softly to Chu Caiwei who was lying motionless on the bed: "Princess! Please eat something! Only in this way can you recover your body!"
However, Chu Caiwei did not react at all. She just shed tears silently and said to herself, "What's the point of living like this now? It would be better to just die and have a clean life..."
Huixiang, who was standing by, was extremely anxious when she saw this, and hurriedly tried to comfort her: "Princess, you must not commit suicide like this! You are a daughter of a royal family, and your status is extremely noble. How can you give up your life so easily?" After that, she leaned close to Chu Caiwei's ear and whispered a few words in a low voice.
After Chu Caiwei heard this, her originally dull eyes gradually became brighter, as if she had regained the courage to live. She sat up from the bed with difficulty, took the bowl of porridge, raised her head and drank it all. When she put down the empty bowl, she was already out of breath, but her complexion was much better than before.
After taking a deep breath, Chu Caiwei slowly turned around and whispered to Meixiang, "Go outside and call Mrs. Zhao in!"
Soon, a stout, fleshy woman came in. The woman's face was full of impatience, and she asked in a rough voice, "What's the matter? Tell me quickly!"
Chu Caiwei was not annoyed when she saw this. She just quietly reached out from under the pillow and took out a crystal-clear and warm jade pendant. She carefully held it in her palm and said to the maid in front of her: "Madam Zhao, my cousin Li Jingshu will have her coming-of-age ceremony soon. I want to give her this jade pendant as a gift!"
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhao was obviously a little hesitant, but Huixiang, who was standing beside her, suddenly interrupted and said, "Madam Zhao, this daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion will marry the Crown Prince and become the Crown Princess in the future. You should go over and give her a gift now to establish a relationship with the future Crown Princess. Who knows, the Crown Princess may even take care of your family in the future!"
After Huixiang finished speaking, she put a bunch of silver into Mrs. Zhao's hand.
When Mrs. Zhao heard this, a bright smile immediately broke out on her face, and she thought to herself: After all, Chu Caiwei has not left the mansion. If I help her deliver gifts to the future Crown Princess, I might get more rewards!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Zhao picked up the jade pendant in Chu Caiwei's hand, carefully put it in her arms, and then walked out of the gate of Zhang's house...
