A retired aunt traveled through time and space, and her daughter became rich!

Before, her second sister’s marriage encountered unexpected setbacks, and her family’s investment of money was about to go down the drain. Naturally, she was very angry for her second sister at that time.

Now that she had entered the palace, she fought hard for herself and the Zhu family, and finally got what she wanted, and indirectly saved her second sister's marriage.

The status of her and her second sister also underwent a huge reversal.

But she didn't feel proud for long before the oppression from other palaces made her face the reality.

The palace is not a warm and loving place. You can't sit back and relax just by giving birth to a prince.

There were deposed concubines in the cold palace who went mad because they gave birth to princes and princesses but they died young.

If she didn't have money in her hands and could spend it to bribe people everywhere, I'm afraid the final outcome of her and the prince would not be much better than those in the cold palace.

So she and the Zhu family rely on each other.

Even if this person's current status is not as high as her second legitimate sister, he can still be useful to her.

She smiled and gave Xiaowu a gift.

The gift was a pair of beads. The beads were South China Sea coral beads, a genuine tribute. They looked extremely beautiful on the wrist of a little girl of Xiaowu's age.

"Thank you, Auntie!"

Xiao Wu bowed and thanked him in a sweet voice, his eyes already on his wrist, unwilling to look away.

In fact, before entering the palace, A'niang repeatedly reminded her that the palace rules were strict and that if she lost her manners, she would be punished. She also told her not to look around, not to interrupt when adults were talking, and not to speak or move around casually.

If you can't just look at it casually, then you can only look at your own wrist, right?

However, a snow-white hand reached out and gently pinched her cheek, and then the aunt laughed softly.

"Oh, this is indeed my biological niece! In fact, she looks a lot like my second sister when she was a child!"

There is nothing wrong with what he said. Although they don't look alike, you can still see some of the differences if you observe carefully from their expressions and unconscious little movements.

"Unfortunately, I didn't have the energy to discipline her in the first five years, which delayed her upbringing."

Zhupin's eyes flashed, "Xiaowu is only five years old, still young, it's not too late for him to learn the rules from scratch now!"

Fortunately, Xiaowu doesn’t look like his second sister.

Otherwise, if she had the chance to be with her own prince in the future, it wouldn't seem so wonderful to her to see a little girl who looked like her second sister in front of her all day long.

He then raised his voice and asked someone to invite the little prince over.

The little prince she gave birth to was the eighth among the princes.

Now he is six years old, and is considered smart, lively and strong.

Although he is still young, as a mother, she can make some plans for his future.

"Let the two children meet him, and then go play in the flower garden!"

Not long after, a chubby little boy came trotting in, looking around and muttering, "Where is my second aunt? Where is my cousin?"

Before the adults in the hall could answer, the little boy had already seen Xiao Wu. His eyes lit up, and he ran over and grabbed Xiao Wu's hand, "Are you my cousin?"

Although he was a prince, he had seven older brothers and two younger brothers.

But the youngest of his brothers is five years older than him, and the youngest is still breastfeeding.

What's more, the relationships between the ladies in the palace are very complicated.

Especially those imperial brothers, they didn't pay much attention to him, the imperial brother. Either they thought he was too young to say anything, or they followed suit because of the conflict between their mother and concubine.

The only ones who could play with him were the little eunuchs and palace maids.

But that wouldn't make much sense.

Now that a cousin has finally arrived, isn’t that quite fresh?

Xiao Wu tilted his head to look at the little prince and nodded, "Yeah!"

"Are you the prince's cousin?" He looked at his own mother again.

Zhu nodded and said, "Silly child, come and pay your respects!"

Xiao Wu quickly bowed, "Greetings, cousin the prince!"

The little prince returned the greeting with a smile, then slowly came over to greet Zhu.

"My aunt is always well. She looks very healthy today!"

These words spoken by little adults made both sisters laugh.

"Your aunt recognized her own daughter, so she is naturally very happy."

Concubine Zhu had something to say to Mrs. Zhu, so she asked the little prince to take Xiaowu out to play.

"I suddenly heard that you recognized the child, but I don't know how it happened. Please tell me about it!"

Being lonely in the deep palace, one naturally hopes to have some melons to eat.

When Concubine Zhu learned that the children had been mixed up, in addition to being angry on behalf of Zhu, she also felt a little relieved deep down in her heart.

It's not a good idea to marry a high-ranking official and become his only son's wife.

Even when she gave birth to the prince in the palace, it was not so dangerous.

"What a coincidence..."

Zhu recounted the story of her chance encounter with Old Madam Su in the temple and what happened afterwards.

Naturally, since Xiaowu was her biological child, she did not mention that Xiaoliu was pushed into the pond by Xiaowu, nor did she mention that Nanny Zhu beside her had amazing hearing.

Otherwise, if Concubine Zhu wanted Nanny Zhu, how could she bear to give her up?

After hearing this, Concubine Zhu was speechless for a long time.

"Does this old lady Su have such ability?"

"So, even closer ties can actually cause such harm?"

"What's that color blindness card? Do you still have it with you? Show it to me."

My eyes are opened. My eyes are opened.

If her second sister hadn't entered the palace, how would she have known that there were so many things in the world that she didn't know!

Zhu and Concubine Zhu grew up together. Given her understanding of Concubine Zhu, she naturally carried the color blindness card with her.

However, when Old Madam Su gave her four color blindness cards, she put one there in order to irritate her mother-in-law, so that Madam Zhao could go back to her parents' home to take a test to see if her parents' family had the root of color blindness!

The other one was taken away by Mrs. Zhu when I returned to my parents' home.

Now there are only two left.

I guess this one will also be kept by Concubine Zhu?

When she took it out, Zhu felt a little painful.

Zhu Bin took the color blindness card, looked at it calmly for a while, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she was not color blind.

He even had a sudden idea and called the palace maids and eunuchs around him to ask them what was drawn on the card.

You know what, I actually found out that there is a color-blind person.

The poor little eunuch was found to be color blind. He felt terrible and shrank back, almost crying.

Zhu couldn't bear it and tried to smooth things over, "It's just a minor problem. As long as you don't work as an embroiderer, chef, painter or doctor, it won't matter."

Concubine Zhu was instantly alert, "This reminds me, I should tell Xiao Shunzi not to do related work in the future."

For example, if Xiao Shunzi were asked to take care of brushes, inks, paints, and manage flowers and plants, things would easily go wrong.

Concubine Zhu waved her hand and asked everyone else in the hall to leave.

Then he naturally put away the color blindness card.

Zhu just pretended not to see it.

Humph, she knew it!

After putting away the color blindness card, Concubine Zhu asked someone to serve tea to Zhu.

"Second sister, come on, tell me, why does marriage between close relatives lead to color blindness?"

In fact, Zhu only roughly understood what she heard at that time. After she came back, she kept thinking about the connection here in her mind, combined with the real lives of several families, and finally she sorted out the relationship here.

Therefore, I can now explain the ins and outs of this to Concubine Zhu.

Concubine Zhu was not good at math at first. Her intelligence and looks were not from the Zhu family but from her biological mother, so she was confused by what she heard. But at least she understood one thing: the relationship was closer than ever, and her clothes were wet with tears.

"So there is such a trick!"

Then the Eighth Prince cannot marry the daughter of the Zhu family.

Not to mention the main wife, even a concubine or a concubine is not allowed!

What if a fool or disabled person was born? Wouldn't that be worrying?

"What about Xiao Ba's future princess?"

Concubine Zhu's thoughts were simple and direct, and she said them in front of Zhu.

Zhu was also sighing inwardly.

What a pity, otherwise the Zhu family could have produced a prince's consort.

"Don't worry, madam. The little prince is only eight years old. There is still a lot of time. We will keep an eye out for a suitable lady from a famous family for the little prince."

The Zhu family had previously thought that the benefits would not fall into the hands of outsiders.

Naturally, I wouldn't be nosy and ask about the girls in other people's homes.

But the benefits cannot be shared by outsiders, and Concubine Zhu is in the deep palace and cannot go out. So, this important responsibility falls on the Zhu family, right?

This is what Concubine Zhu was waiting for.

At this moment, he nodded and said, "Then I'll have to ask my sister, parents, brothers and sisters-in-law to take care of this matter!"

"Don't worry, Madam Queen. If the young prince is well, the Zhu family will naturally be well too. We will naturally be concerned about it."

Concubine Zhu smiled with satisfaction, her eyes flashed with interest, and she continued to eat the melon.

"Sister, why don't you tell me more about that old lady Su? I just heard you mention that old lady Su has a connection with an immortal? What kind of connection is that?"

"Does it mean knowing the past and the future, and knowing everything from astronomy to geography?"

Zhu glanced inside the hall, and Concubine Zhu waved her hand, asking all the servants to leave, leaving only the most trusted old nanny.

This old nanny, like Nanny Zhu, has been in the Zhu family for many years, and she is also Concubine Zhu's wet nurse.

Zhupin's biological mother was just a singer who died after giving birth to Zhupin. Therefore, Zhupin was raised by this wet nurse, so she can be considered half her biological mother.

When Zhu saw that the scene was cleared, she began to tell the story of Old Madam Su.

She had no idea how many times the information she had obtained had been passed down through the hands of someone.

With every passing hand, the story becomes more exaggerated.

For example, the fairy fruit was not grown by Madam Su, but grew overnight from the fields on Madam Su's farm.

Also, Princess Huyang seized Sujia Manor, and the snake demon simply used its magical powers to spray venom at all of the princess's subordinates. When the news reached the Zhu family, it became extremely evil.

"Ah? You said that the snake demon killed two strong men with just one spray of poison mist!"

"Isn't it? Those two strong men died on the spot. The rest fought hard and ran back to the capital to report to Princess Huyang. I heard that after they finished explaining the whole story, they also died on the spot..."

Princess Huyang was not liked by the royal family, and was even more notoriously annoying in the palace.

For example, the Queen Mother and the Four Concubines, when they mentioned Huyang, they all treated him as a troublemaker. When Huyang entered the palace, these concubines naturally would not give him any good face.

But for a minor concubine like Concubine Zhu, it would be better for her to avoid Huyang.

How could someone like Huyang, who flatters the powerful and looks down on the weak, be polite to those in the palace who have a lower status than her?

In short, even if Huyang himself had forgotten, Zhupin could still remember. At that time, she had just entered the palace not long ago and was secretly admiring the flowers in the imperial garden. She was clearly eight feet away from Huyang, but Huyang said that Zhupin had picked up her lost jade pendant and wanted to search her body.

If His Majesty hadn't happened to pass by at that time, and saw her tearful face, she looked very pitiful, and had spoken out to help her out, not only helping her out, but also turning over her card...

Even if she turned a disaster into a blessing and rose to a high position and won the emperor's favor, it could not eliminate her hatred for Hu Yang.

Therefore, when Concubine Zhu asked this question, she put on a happy smile.

Not only did Huyang lose his men, he was also frightened to the point of almost falling ill. He had to go to the temple and ask a senior monk to perform a ritual, and only then did the situation calm down... Isn't that a relief to everyone?

Zhu smiled and said, "That's right. The news has spread quietly in the capital! I heard that the Queen Mother even sent a eunuch to reprimand Princess Huyang."

It even alarmed the Queen?

Then this can't be faked!

Zhupin's eyes flickered, "This old lady Su is really not someone you can easily mess with!"

Even Princess Huyang suffered a loss!

"Madam Su is a kind and benevolent person. I heard that she has made many good friends by providing medical treatment and medicine in Tongcheng, and has saved many lives!"

"The expert who gave guidance to the Fifth Princess was none other than this Old Lady Su!"

Of course, Concubine Zhu had eaten the fifth princess's melon.

But she had never thought that the expert who gave guidance to the fifth princess was actually Old Madam Su, who also helped her second sister solve the difficult problems she had encountered in the past five years.

Zhupin's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Ah! It's her!"

"Such a capable master, I..."

Zhupin kept saying "I" for a long time, but couldn't continue with the second half.

Although she now has some status in the palace and can receive people from her own family, she is still not qualified to summon ladies from outside the palace.

If Madam Su was just an ordinary person, she could be brought into the palace as a servant of the Zhu family. However, Madam Su was the old lady of the Earl's Mansion, and she was also a senior person whom he needed a favor from. Wouldn't he offend the other party before he even asked for the favor?

Zhu asked curiously, "Madam, do you have any difficult questions that you would like to ask Madam Su for help? If it's not a big deal, I can do it for you."

"Madam Su helped me so much before. I am planning to prepare a courtyard from my dowry and give it to the old lady. It will probably be within the next two days."

Concubine Zhu looked at Zhu, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke stammeringly.

"Little Eighth, the Eighth Prince likes to play a little. Whenever he picks up a book, he keeps complaining about a headache. It was fine before, and it wasn't a big deal because he was young, but now he is six years old. In three months, he will go to the study room to study with the other princes. If he continues to be like this..."
