Abandoned daughter takes charge of the family, so rich that even the best people can't envy

It turned out that Princess Shou had an affair with someone and got pregnant. She secretly took abortion pills, resulting in two deaths.

According to Zhu Beichen's investigation, the adulterer turned out to be Prince Yin.

Just as Zhu Beichen finished his report, another eunuch came back. Prince Shou couldn't bear the blow and passed away. Before he died, he asked to be buried with Princess Shou for the sake of the royal family's reputation.

Liu Renxiu sighed and agreed.

Needless to say, the Shouwang Mansion was handling funeral matters. Liu Renxiu looked at the piles of memorials proposing to make the eldest prince the crown prince and said to Zhu Beichen:

"Check for me the eldest prince's maternal family, the Zhou family. And those people who have been clamoring for the crown prince these days. See if they have any connection. Who is behind it?"

"Yes"

Zhu Beichen took the order and left.

Eunuch Hai came in with a smile, holding a memorial from southern Xinjiang.

There are a lot of memorials every day, and finding the ones from southern Xinjiang among them is his top priority these days.

Liu Renxiu opened the letter from Southern Xinjiang and eagerly pulled out a letter from its inner compartment. A subtle smile suddenly appeared on his face.

During the days when Song Jinxiu was away from the capital, he felt that attending court was boring. The first thing he saw every day when he went to court was to look for that petite figure.

The memorial was written by Wei Qiliang, but the letter was inscribed with "Father's personal letter", so the letter must have been written by the little girl herself.

Liu Renxiu couldn't wait to open the envelope. There were two light pieces of paper inside. He was excited as he held them in his hands.

When it unfolds, what comes into view is a painting.

In the painting, there was a team of cavalrymen with flying flags, and a girl in red riding a black horse, holding a long spear, galloping forward. Liu Renxiu recognized her at a glance. This was the eldest princess, his beloved Song.

He couldn't help but gently stroke the girl in the painting with his hand: What a spirited female general!

Turning over the next page, it is a handwritten letter from Song Jinxiu.

The letter read: "Father, you have worked so hard. Take care of your health. I, your son, will repay you with my unwavering loyalty. I bid farewell to the Phoenix Palace, my cavalry circles the Dragon City, and leave the capital. From now on, the mountains are distant, the sky high, and the waters misty. Beneath Bobo Mountain, the azure sky reflects, while Peacock Lake is surrounded by lush greenery. Wind and rain wither the banners and paintings, and the chirping of insects mingles with the clamor of drums. I have no fear in traveling thousands of miles, I am willing to serve as a vanguard for my emperor."

Looking at the letter and the painting, a picture of war with flames and iron horses appeared before him, and Liu Renxiu couldn't help being moved.

His beloved concubine Song was devoted to him, the emperor. It was precisely because of her loyalty that she, at a young age and as a girl, traveled to the southern border.

He understood the cruelty of war. How much suffering did his little girl have to endure? Liu Renxiu looked at the girl in the painting and couldn't help but tear up with heartache.

It is said that emperors are ruthless. Even Liu Renxiu himself felt that he was heartless and disloyal, and that the only thing in his heart was the country and the people.

As an emperor, he naturally had no shortage of women. He had three palaces and six courtyards, and many concubines, both fat and thin, and he had them both to embrace. However, these women only gave him physical pleasure, but there was always a void in his heart.

But who knows when, the little girl has lived in the emperor's heart. Perhaps this is what it means: love comes from nowhere, but it is deep and lasting?

Once the emperor falls in love...

He fumbled with the painting and letter, and Liu Renxiu was reluctant to put them down for a long time. For a moment, he wanted to issue an imperial decree to order the little girl to return to Beijing.

He didn't want to marry her. He didn't want to taint the little girl's purity with love. He just wanted to keep her in front of him, watch her, pamper her, let her be the bird of Cangwu, the big bird, to display her talents, and even choose a good husband for her so that she could live a peaceful life.

Or maybe he would put everything aside and whip his horse to gallop with the little girl. They would kill enemies together, laugh together, and sail through the mountains and rivers together.

In his world of longing, the little girl was pure, as crystal clear as the morning dew, as warm and bright as the afternoon sun. He imagined himself as a guard and the little girl as the queen...

Lovesickness is such an incredible thing.

However, the emperor did not know that the pure little queen in his heart was now turning into a killing god, and she was invincible with a long spear. The southern border army was terrified, and the entire royal family was trembling and struggling to survive.

As for Cui Qiu, his words in the court were not taken seriously by the emperor, nor by the people in the cabinet.

Because he brought this up at this time, there was indeed suspicion of abusing his power for personal gain.

The future Crown Prince's wife is Cui Qiu's granddaughter. At this time, he talked about evil stars and royal blood, wasn't it just to urge His Majesty to quickly appoint a crown prince?

Now the other princes are not in good health, only the eldest prince is in good spirits. What he said is exactly what the story published in the Cangwu People's Daily said, "Xiang Zhuang dances with a sword, aiming at Pei Gong"?

However, no one else paid attention to Cui Qiu's words, but they touched the heart of Prince Hexian.

The royal family has an unspeakable secret that has been weighing on his mind.

So that night, under the cover of darkness, Prince Hexian took advantage of the darkness to enter Xuan Zhenzi's residence.

The two of them climbed onto the roof, watched the stars all night, and then closed the door and talked about it, no one knew what they said.

But from that day on, Prince Hexian began to pay attention to the war in southern Xinjiang.

The left prime minister Wei Zhen stayed up all night for three consecutive days to observe the stars.

He was also skeptical about Cui Qiu's theory of a demon star, but as a prime minister and a former top scholar, he was also a man of great learning and had only a superficial understanding of stargazing.

Because he knew a little, he would often study it, especially after he got an astronomical telescope from the eldest princess, he liked to observe the clouds and predict rain whenever he had time, which was actually observing the celestial phenomena at night.

Because of the recent incidents involving the princes and princesses and the turmoil in the court, he had been too busy to observe the stars for a long time.

Today, after listening to Cui Qiu's words, he remembered to go to the night sky to observe the sky and see where the evil star Cui Qiu mentioned was. If it wasn't there, he could ridicule this shameless old man.

However, when he saw this, he, like Song Jinxiu and Su Mo, was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat.

Ziwei Star and Sirius are opposite each other, and Wu Qu Star and Qi Sha Star are in harmony with each other...

Emperor Star is doomed to a romantic disaster, and Wu Qi is terrified to protect him. Tian Heng's sub-star sinks into the dark realm, flickering and disappearing without a trace...

It’s so scary, this constellation is so scary.

The left prime minister Wei did not see the so-called evil star that Cui Qiu mentioned.

He didn't care that the Emperor Star was doomed to peach blossoms. No matter how gorgeous the peach blossoms were, they would eventually wither. They would scatter into the mud and turn into dust, and everything would be gone with the wind.

But the sub-star was dim, as if there was an invisible force devouring the sub-star's luck.

Is it possible that the Liu family's empire will have no successor?

The left prime minister Wei Zhen quickly shook his head when he thought of this. His Majesty has five sons and two daughters. Although the two princesses have unfortunately passed away, His Majesty still has five princes!

Especially the eldest prince, who is already in his twenties and is about to get married. Maybe the emperor's grandson will be born in a year.

So, it must be my fault with my half-baked level.

In the past few days, the left prime minister Wei Zhen and the old prince Hexian have been a little absent-minded when attending court.

The voices calling for the eldest prince to be appointed as the crown prince became louder.
