After becoming a princess, she fell in love with the emperor of the enemy country
Chapter 158 Why did you run away from marriage back then?
Watching the farm getting farther and farther away behind her, Zhang Ruoning reluctantly let down the curtain. She had not yet said goodbye to her benefactor.
She knew what Ye Wu meant. This was to ask her to pretend not to know her benefactor when she met him in the future.
However, since we know that she is the doctor of Wuyoutang, we can always imagine it.
Princess Rui'an and Ma Yuanzhu were already waiting in the back hill of Ci'an Temple. As for Duke Anguo and Ma Yu, they had already gone into the palace.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Ji was arrested right after Xiao Tao was buried today.
After seeing off the guests, Princess Rui'an and Ma Yuanzhu went straight to Ci'an Temple.
The two waited for a long time and finally saw a carriage wobbling towards them.
The carriage stopped in front of them, and the driver took down a wheelchair from the back. Ma Yuanzhu's eyes were red. She walked to the side of the carriage and whispered, "Ningning?"
Zhang Ruoning heard this, held back her tears, opened the curtain, and choked up, "Mom."
Seeing the woman standing next to her mother again, Zhang Ruoning's childhood memories came back to her, and she greeted her, "Grandma."
"Oh," Princess Rui'an was extremely happy and could not hide her excitement. She hadn't seen her granddaughter for more than ten years. It was amazing that she still remembered her.
Ma Yuanzhu knew that Zhang Ruoning had a broken leg, so he turned around, carried her down and put her on a wheelchair.
Then she thanked the driver again. Princess Rui'an took a bag of silver and said, "Please tell my benefactor that if you have any problems in the future, just come to the Ma Mansion to find me."
"As long as it is something I can do, I will do it without hesitation."
The driver refused to take the money and said, "My lord, your words are too polite. As long as you do as His Majesty says, just keep this to yourself."
Princess Rui'an nodded, "Of course."
"Ningning was rescued by a hunter in the mountains. The hunter sent her to the town's clinic and left."
The driver nodded and said, "I'll take my leave."
After saying this, he drove away in his carriage.
The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren looked at each other, as if they had a thousand words to say. Princess Rui'an's eyes were red, "Let's go back first."
On the way back, the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren cried together.
Slowly, Zhang Ruoning calmed down. She looked at Madam Ma expectantly, "Mom, have you found Xiaotao?"
"She exchanged clothes with her daughter and led the thieves away herself."
Madam Ma choked up and said, "We found it and buried it today."
Zhang Ruoning was completely stunned. Although she had already prepared for the worst, now that her guess was confirmed, Zhang Ruoning couldn't help crying.
That was Xiaotao who grew up with her. He had clearly said that he would find her a good family to marry her off in the future, but now, everything has changed.
Xiaotao is still so young.
"It's all my fault," Zhang Ruoning burst into tears.
"No, it's not your fault," Ma Yuanzhu cried and comforted her. She knew very well the friendship between her daughter and Xiaotao.
"It's all Zhang Ji's fault." Princess Rui'an touched Zhang Ruoning's back and said gritting her teeth.
Zhang Ruoning's body stiffened when she heard this, her eyes blurred with tears, "Mom, is he really going to kill me?"
Madam Ma pursed her lips and nodded.
She knew her own daughter well. Although Ruoning was domineering and willful, she was not stupid. She must have figured it out in the past few days.
"Your Majesty, has he put him in jail?" Zhang Ruoning asked.
Mrs. Ma nodded.
Princess Rui'an felt that she had to tell her first, "Not only did we catch him, but we also caught Xiao Tao's murderer."
Zhang Ruoningwen was stunned when he heard this, and waited for Princess Rui'an to continue, "Your Majesty means that you should identify their crimes."
"But His Majesty also said that Zhang Ji is just a small official in the Ministry of Revenue and doesn't have the guts to do such a thing. There must be someone behind him backing him up."
Princess Rui'an glanced at Zhang Ruoning and said, "His Majesty asked you to think it over carefully. Even if you don't go, he still has a way..."
"I'll go," Zhang Ruoning said firmly.
Madam Ma and Princess Rui'an were no exception to Zhang Ruoning's attitude, but they still had to make it clear to her, "If you go, you may become a thorn in the eyes of the person behind you, and they may want to get rid of you as soon as possible."
Zhang Ruoning nodded, "Granddaughter understands, but mother," she looked at Madam Ma, "don't you often tell your daughter that although we are women, we must not let down the country or His Majesty."
"You also said that we have the blood of the Duke of Anguo in our bodies. Even if our hands and feet are broken, we cannot kneel down."
Mrs. Ma was stunned. She had indeed said that before.
Zhang Ruoning looked determined and said, "My daughter is not afraid of death. I just won't testify. Your Majesty, I don't know how much effort it will take to find evidence."
"It's the easiest and quickest way for me to testify."
Princess Rui'an shouted, "Well done, you are worthy of being the children of the An family."
"It's best if you understand. We are old too, so we will accompany you."
Ma Yuanzhu couldn't help but scold, "If Dad heard you saying this, he would have to coax you for a long time."
Princess Rui'an's beautiful eyes widened, "What did you say in front of the child?"
Madam Ma curled her lips and shared with Zhang Ruoning, "Ningning, you don't know that your grandfather and grandmother were inseparable when I was a child."
"I heard that when mom gave birth to me, your grandpa cried so hard that he fainted. Mom's screams were not as loud as his."
The heavy atmosphere in the carriage was broken, and Zhang Ruoning became interested, "Really?"
Madam Ma pulled away Princess Rui'an's hand that was covering her and said, "Really? I heard from my nanny that after my mother gave birth to me, my father stayed by my bed and cried."
"Then your grandmother slept until the night and when she opened her eyes she saw your grandfather lying in front of the bed."
"Seeing your grandmother wake up, your grandfather cried and threatened that he would never let your grandmother suffer the pain of having a child again, so he wiped his tears and ran out to drink a bowl of sterilization medicine himself."
Zhang Ruoning had a complicated expression, "So grandpa and grandma didn't have any other children because grandpa drank the sterilizing drug himself?"
Princess Rui'an was embarrassed. Seeing that her daughter had revealed all her secrets, she simply admitted, "Yes."
Madam Ma was finally free from the constraints and continued, "I heard that my grandfather, your great-grandfather, has been urging them to have a son to inherit the Duke's Mansion."
Princess Rui'an coughed and said, "It is true. My husband also told me about the contraceptive drug..."
Madam Ma interrupted at the right time, "Then, my father, your grandfather, was beaten by my grandfather, your great-grandfather."
That was indeed the case. Duke Anguo did give Ma Yu a lesson when he was furious, but when he thought about it carefully, wasn’t it all for his own daughter?
In just one night, Duke Anguo completely let it go. It didn't matter if he didn't have a son. He would just treat Ma Yu as his own son from now on. As long as he always treated A Shen well, it would be fine.
Ma Yu really did not disappoint Duke Anguo at all. The two have been married for more than 30 years and are still very much in love.
After hearing this, Zhang Ruoning sighed from the bottom of his heart, "Grandpa is so kind."
Madam Ma smacked her lips. "Yeah, that's great. Ever since I got married to that guy, I feel my dad has become a better person."
After saying that, Madam Ma seemed to remember something and asked, "Mom, my father is so good, why did you run away from marriage back then?"
