Playing bad and eating melons: The whole court is laughing? No, no

"Cough! Cough!"

Jiang Yueyang coughed violently and choked on her own saliva.

Song Xihe and the three uncles of the Song family all looked at Fang Yu'an on the bed. Could he be the prince who had been exiled to the common people?

[What did you just say? Who is he brothers with?]

The system replied indifferently: [He and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are brothers.]

"Are you sure you're not mistaken? I've never heard of His Majesty losing a son."

【The emperor didn't know he had such a son.】

After Jiang Yueyang stopped coughing, she walked over to a nearby stool and sat down. "Come on, tell me the whole story in detail."

The system said: [There are no twists and turns. When the emperor was still a prince, in order to marry the empress, he dismissed the maids and concubines in the backyard who had not given birth to children.

Little did they know that one of the concubines was pregnant at the time, but because the pregnancy was still young, it was not detected at the time.

By the time the concubine found out she was pregnant, the emperor had already moved into the Eastern Palace and became the crown prince, so she could not see the crown prince at all.

She went to the government, but they thought she was crazy about becoming a concubine and kicked her out. That time, she almost lost the baby she was carrying. So, she raised the child alone.

【She is not married? 】

[No, she thought it was treasonous for the emperor's son to call someone else his father.]

Jiang Yueyang sighed, [How hard must her life have been then?]

In this feudal and backward ancient times, it was already difficult for a woman to get pregnant before marriage, and it was even more difficult to raise a child alone.

Besides, looking at the current situation, the child is being well raised.

It was really hard. My eyes were almost blinded, and now my house has burned down. Fang Yu'an wanted to take his mother with him to Beijing to take the exam, but his mother was afraid of being a burden to him, so she insisted on staying at home.

He was simply told to study hard and strive to pass the palace examination, so that he could meet his biological father.

Jiang Yueyang couldn't understand, nor would she try to. If it were her, she would have just taken a bowl of abortion pills and ended it all.

Your Majesty is not a heartless and indifferent person. He must have given Ansheng enough money to dismiss the concubines.

Without children, she would be able to live a comfortable life without being gossiped about behind her back. She might even find someone she loves and spend the rest of her life with them.

Who cares whether he is a prince or not, the most important thing is to feel comfortable!

Jiang Yueyang: [Speaking of which, Your Majesty is a bit funny. Other people raise two children at a time, but your own child is left alone.]

The three uncles of the Song family and Song Xihe all widened their eyes slightly. What did this mean?

Whose child are you raising, Your Majesty?

【Then are you going to tell him? 】

Jiang Yueyang thought for a moment and said, "Forget it. Since he was able to pass the provincial examination, it shouldn't be difficult for him to pass the provincial examination. If His Majesty still doesn't recognize his son during the palace examination, then there's no father-son relationship."

No one present noticed that Fang Yu'an on the bed had already woken up when the system said that he and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince were brothers.

The reason why he didn't open his eyes immediately was because what he heard was too unbelievable.

But after hearing the rest, he was confused.

His mother once told him that she had been a maid or concubine in a wealthy family, and he was the child of that wealthy family.

So... that wealthy family is from the royal family?

No, that's impossible. He must be dreaming. Everything will be fine once he wakes up.

So he fell into a deep sleep again.

The three uncles of the Song family did not intend to meddle in other people's affairs, especially those of the royal family.

However, those people outside need to be dealt with.

Therefore, Uncle Song said, "Little sister, please find someone to take good care of this young master. We are leaving now."

Hearing this, Jiang Yueyang hurriedly asked, "Uncle, where are you going?"

Uncle Song, who wanted to deal with those people outside, could only find an excuse to check the accounts.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yueyang also wanted to go along.

"What are you going to do?"

"I'm bored and want to go out and play. My aunt will definitely be reluctant to leave that young man to play with me, so I can only trouble my uncles."

Song Xihe did not refute, she really was reluctant.

Uncle Song had no choice but to agree, "Then go change your clothes first. You can't go in your official uniform, right?"

"I'll be there soon." Jiang Yueyang ran out.

The Song family has a yard in the Jiang family, and the Jiang family also has a yard in the Song family.

After a while, Jiang Yueyang came back after changing her clothes.

Before leaving, she warned Song Xihe, "Aunt, don't let this person go out. He's a good guy, hold on to him."

Afterwards, she followed her three uncles out. As soon as she walked out of the gate, she saw three people sneaking around the Song family.

Those three people should be the ones sent by the gentry to kill Fang Yu'an.

The three uncles of the Song family also saw it, but they pretended not to see it and helped Jiang Yueyang get into the carriage.

After a while, Uncle Song brought Jiang Yueyang to Anping Street, and the other two uncles went to the other two streets.

Originally, they didn't need to check the accounts in person, as the shopkeeper would deliver the account books to the Song family.

Now that they had spoken, they had no choice but to come out and check the accounts themselves. It was also a good opportunity to see if the store manager was diligent, as the profits had been dwindling recently.

After Uncle Song and Jiang Yueyang got off the carriage, they walked towards a rouge shop together.

As soon as they reached the door, they heard countless compliments.

There was a girl in yellow with a veil, surrounded by six or seven girls who were flattering her. Jiang Yueyang could see the smug look on the girl's face even through the veil.

"Yiting, can you really give us these rouges?"

"Of course, you can pick whatever you like."

"Yiting, you're so generous. Unlike Hu Xiaoqing, who promised to give each of us a handkerchief from Red Embroidery, but still hasn't found it."

"The cheapest of these rouges costs five taels of silver a box, and I can't bear to buy them. Yiting, will your father blame you for giving us so much?"

The girl in yellow proudly said, "No. My father said that this shop will be my dowry in the future. I can give my things to whoever I want."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yueyang and Uncle Song both stopped in their tracks.

Jiang Yueyang turned her head to look at Uncle Song beside her, "Uncle, did we go to the wrong shop? She said this is her family's shop."

Uncle Song's face was gloomy and he sneered in his heart.

Even if he recognized the wrong son, he would never go to the wrong shop!

"Uncle?" Jiang Yueyang tugged at Uncle Song's sleeve.

"You're right, this is your shop."

Jiang Yueyang: "??? My shop?"

"Yes, this entire street of shops is yours. Your father gave it to you when you were one year old."

The shops along the entire Anping Street were bustling with activity, and he couldn't admit his mistake even if he wanted to!

How brave these people are!

Jiang Yueyang immediately rolled up her sleeves, "What? How dare she give my things away?"
