The arms agent concubine takes the RV to raise a baby
Chapter 94: Shuiyue Temple
Gu Wuhuan lost interest when he heard that there was nothing to eat. Caiping quickly prepared breakfast. Gu Wuhuan ate reluctantly, missing the noodles from last night. He hurriedly ate a breakfast that was not very satisfying. He still had to go to the Fu family to ask Fu Tingxuan who treated his injury. Liu Jingcheng also wanted to know how Fu Tingxuan returned to Huicheng without anyone noticing with such a serious injury.
In the palace, the emperor was in a good mood when he woke up in the morning. Debao summoned the imperial physician to wait for him without waiting for the emperor to summon him. "Your Majesty, the imperial physician is waiting outside the palace."
The emperor was stunned and said, "Imperial physician, I didn't call the imperial physician." Although he thought so in his mind, he still asked the imperial physician to come in.
Zhang Yuanzheng checked the injury, unbandaged it, cleaned the wound, sprinkled medicinal powder on it, and re-bandaged the emperor. "Your Majesty, the injury is recovering well. You will be fine in two days."
"Okay, I got it. Go check on Dequan again." A eunuch was not eligible for treatment by an imperial physician. Once the emperor had spoken, he was no longer a eunuch.
Zhang Yuanzheng was carrying the medicine box and leaving. Debao sent him outside the hall. At this time, a man in black appeared from nowhere, lowered his head respectfully, waiting for his master to ask questions.
"Go ahead," the emperor's voice was calm.
"They entered Prince Xuan's Palace." Then he recounted in detail how he followed Hua Xiyu last night, even including the instant noodles Hua Xiyu had made.
"Well, go and check on the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Hua Xiyu, especially the situation in Shuiyue Temple," the emperor thought for a moment and said, "Check everyone in Shuiyue Temple for me."
Maybe Concubine Ming is really in Shuiyue Temple.
All of Hua Qianyu's information was laid out in front of the emperor's dragon table. He flipped through it carelessly. He was originally not interested in a daughter of a minister, but this woman was the one that the queen wanted to appoint as Cheng'er's princess, so that was a different matter.
Hua Qianyu, whose mother is Fu Zizhen, is the youngest daughter of Fu Dingkang. She married Hua Yuwei at the age of 16. The emperor naturally knew about this and was happy to see it happen. It was he who specially granted Hua Yuwei the position of Right Counselor.
But he didn't know what happened in Washington later. Now it was clearly laid out on his desk. The emperor flipped through it casually. The women in the harem were no more than those people. He had the most women and knew the reasons best.
After reading this, the emperor said nothing. He looked at Ying Qi standing in front of him and thought for a while before saying, "What did you find out about Hua Xiyu's background?"
"Nothing can be found. This person seems to have suddenly appeared, and nothing can be found about his past," Ying Qi answered truthfully. He didn't know whether to tell the emperor that your son, Prince Hong, was also investigating Hua Qianyu.
"If you have anything else, say it all at once." Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, the emperor was a little angry.
"Yes, Prince Hong is also checking on Miss Hua." Ying Qi had no right to make decisions for his master. In front of his master, he had to say whatever he wanted. But he was a flesh-and-blood person after all, with his own ideas and personality. After all, they were father and son, so he hesitated between speaking and not speaking.
"Oh..." The emperor laughed with interest, without any other expression. Ying Qi silently stepped aside and stood there.
The same question and answer session was also taking place in Prince Xuan's mansion. Yiqi told his master the information he had found, "Master, this is all that Tu Shaoheng found."
"How is the background check on Hua Xiyu going?"
"There's nothing to be found. It's as if she just appeared out of nowhere. There's nothing to be found about her past."
"Can't find her? Then search again. We must find her thoroughly even if we have to dig deep into the ground." Liu Jingcheng didn't believe that a person would suddenly appear. As long as they were active, they would always leave traces.
"Master, during our investigation we encountered another group of people who were also investigating Miss Hua and this Hua Xiyu," Yiqi said.
"Do you know who this person is?" This is strange. The imperial decree granting the marriage has not yet been issued, and only a few people know about this news. Could it be the same person who ruined his marriage? If so, he doesn't have to do it himself, there will be people to help him clean it up.
He went through the possible people in his mind, but in the end he couldn't figure it out. The arranged marriage was only an intention at the moment, and it had already been spread to everyone. Miss Hua had jumped into the river, and his reputation as a wife-killer had spread throughout Huicheng. It was strange that someone was actually investigating Miss Hua.
"What happened to Miss Hua after she arrived at Shuiyue Temple?" He didn't care about Hua Yuwei's family affairs. He wanted to know Hua Qianyu's current situation.
"Investigate Shuiyue Temple carefully," the father and son issued the order at the same time.
Shuiyue Temple has a history of hundreds of years.
Princess Jinghe of the previous dynasty was married to Nanmin for a marriage alliance, but the two countries went to war halfway through, so the marriage naturally fell through. After Princess Jinghe retreated to Nanyue, she refused to return to the palace. She had only two choices: either die or build a nunnery for her in the mountains, where she would live forever and ignore worldly affairs. In the end, the emperor felt sorry for his sister and built the Shuiyue Nunnery for her in Xiaojing Mountain.
The palace sent many maids to serve Princess Jinghe, but she refused to accept them. Since she was going to become a nun, she was no longer a person in the secular world, and she would not accept any worldly affairs in the secular world. Later, she had no choice but to leave only two servants to clean and cook, and the others all withdrew.
Later, the daughter of a minister fell ill for a long time. She was a close friend of Princess Jinghe, so her family obtained Princess Jinghe's consent and sent her to Shuiyue Temple to keep the princess company. Princess Jinghe and the young lady worked in the mountains every day. In their spare time, they talked about poetry and books, played the piano and painted. They lived a pastoral life, which was very pleasant.
After living in Shuiyue Temple for two or three years, the delicate young lady recovered from her illness, returned to Beijing, and got married. Shuiyue Temple was then rumored to be a blessed place.
Later, a trend gradually formed in the capital to send frail and sick daughters to Shuiyue Temple for recuperation. Shuiyue Temple also evolved from a Buddhist temple into a charity hall.
More than a hundred years have passed, and the people and events at the time have long since disappeared. Now, all daughters who are not welcomed at home are sent to Shuiyue Temple, and Shuiyue Temple accepts them all, firstly out of the Buddha's compassion, and secondly, there will be a sum of money for incense. Of course, since Princess Jinghe, all the abbess after her have been this kind of women, and they can't refuse this group of poor people abandoned by their families.
They were abandoned because they were sick and could not bring benefits to the family. Zheng Yanran was absolutely right when she said they were abandoned girls.
She was well-educated, and proficient in all the arts of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she was weak and had difficulty in giving birth. The daughter of the Duke of Yu would rather not marry than be someone's concubine. Besides, people took concubines for the purpose of giving birth. Therefore, several marriage proposals for her failed. As she got older, in order not to affect the marriages of other sisters in the family, the Duke of Yu had to send her to Shuiyue Temple. Now she is in her twenties, and her illness will never be cured in this lifetime, so she can only spend the rest of her life in Shuiyue Temple.
As for those children who were born with disabilities and were abandoned at a young age, their families who did not want to bear the stigma of abandoning their children also sent them to Shuiyue Temple. After all, Shuiyue Temple was not a real charity hall or a medical institution. It simply relied on donations from various families to survive. There were no doctors to treat them. The fate of those women who arrived at Shuiyue Temple was to take its course and to fend for themselves. The children who survived were those with strong vitality.
The emperor didn't know much about Shuiyue Temple. After all, there were abandoned girls there and they were not worthy of attention at all. Liu Jingcheng knew even less about it. It was the ladies and young ladies of various families who paid more attention to Shuiyue Temple.
After reading this, the emperor pondered and said nothing. He had a new understanding of Prime Minister Hua: affection is not fake, and ruthlessness is not fake either.
The emperor laughed in his heart, stood up from the dragon throne, walked to Ying Qi who was half kneeling in front of the table, handed the information to Ying Qi, and said, "Burn it." There was nothing he wanted, so it was not worth paying attention to. What he wanted to know was Hua Xiyu.
"Continue to monitor Hua Xiyu, and arrange for someone to investigate the Feng family," said the emperor as he sat back on his dragon throne.
Ying Qi took the order and left.
In Prince Huang's mansion, Liu Jingcheng also read these contents over and over again. Chunliu said that he died at the age of twelve. Thinking of Chunliu, he remembered what he had told Chunliu in the morning. He paced to the stable to see how the children recognized their mother.
