Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Chapter 304 The truth of the year (1)

 Three days later.

Aunt Ju walked into the eldest princess's bedroom with a solemn expression. After hesitating for a long time, she finally said: "Princess, the Duke of Guo actually transferred that kid out of Beijing through connections. I heard that arrangements will be made for him to leave in the next few days. .”

The eldest princess was spending time making tea. After hearing this, she put down the tea set in her hand and sat in silence for a long time.

 Aunt Ju stepped forward and tried to call: "Princess--"

It took a while before the eldest princess came back to her senses. She said to herself: "In his heart, the outer chamber and the outer chamber are ultimately more important than me."

The eldest princess's tone was calm, but it revealed indescribable sadness.

Grandma Ju shed tears in distress, but she didn't know how to comfort the proud princess who was wounded all over.

The master and the servant were silent for a long time in sadness, and then Aunt Ju called out in a low voice: "Princess—"

The eldest princess grabbed a tea cup on the table and threw it to the ground. She opened her eyes wide and tried hard not to let the tears in her eyes fall, but her shoulders were shrugged fiercely: "Mommy, why did he say it?" Do you want to treat me like this? I originally wanted to settle the feud with him, but why is he still so cold to my heart? He has ruined my life's happiness. Doesn't he have any regrets to this day? "

 Mother Ju cried out in grief and hugged the princess who was as lonely as a wild goose.

"Mommy, I am not willing to give in. I want to ask him personally." The eldest princess was choked with sobs, but she still kept her eyes wide open and refused to shed tears.

In Zhen Guo Gong's Mansion, Li Yu stood with a haggard face outside the gate of Zhen Guo Gong's Luo'an Hall. Behind him were only Aunt Zhou and a servant carrying a simple luggage.

After a while, the messenger in Luo'an Hall came out and said to Li Yu: "Fourth Master, the Duke of the country allows you to come in."

As soon as Li Yu heard this, his pale face softened a little. Just as he was about to lift his legs and walk in, Nanny Zhou beside him said, "I'll go in with you."

Li Yu glanced at Aunt Zhou beside him. His thin lips moved slightly and he nodded slightly.

Duke Zhen Guo had just taken the medicine, and the room was still filled with a strong smell of medicine. At this moment, he was half-lying on the soft couch, looking at Li Yu who slowly walked in, and coughed: "Now that it has happened, If you don’t leave quickly, why are you here?”

Li Yu stood in front of him and asked, "I just want to ask you, why do you want to spare my life?"

The Duke of Zhen raised his eyes and glanced at him, then waved his hands and said, "Just leave now and don't come back again."

Li Yu said with disdain on her face: "I can't believe that you spared me because of our relationship as father and son. Haha, you let me go because you were ashamed of my mother."

After hearing this, Duke Zhen Guo slowly sat up, sighed, looked straight at Li Yu, and said solemnly: "We are not biological father and son at all, so how can we talk about the relationship between father and son? Your mother has never committed herself to Li Yu. I, let alone I am ashamed of her."

Seeing Li Yu's shocked look, he coughed violently and continued: "The reason why I let you go today is because your grandfather died tragically when he blocked a knife for me." Li Yu listened. At this, he looked at Duke Zhen Guo in disbelief and asked in a low voice, "What did you say? I'm not your biological son?"

Duke Zhen Guo closed his eyes and sighed: "The most difficult thing in the world to repay is the debt of gratitude. Your grandfather died saving me back then. In order to repay this favor over the years, I have made my husband and wife fall out against each other, and I have regretted it for half my life. This is considered a right." It’s time to take care of your grandpa.”

“What the **** is going on?” Li Yu roared in shock.

Because of his excitement, Duke Zhen Guo coughed violently again. After he calmed down, he slowly told Li Yu:

"Back then, your grandfather was an adjutant under me. In a battle, he was killed by an enemy's knife to save me. Your grandfather's wife died young and he only had an orphan. He died because of me, so I naturally want to keep him. This orphan girl was taken care of. It was a time of intense war and I couldn't escape. Your grandfather's hometown was not far from where we fought, so I ordered a few local soldiers to help your mother transport your grandfather's body back. Burial in hometown.

Unexpectedly, these people encountered bandits on the way to **** your grandfather's body back home. The bandits were so numerous that they killed the soldiers and took your mother to the bandit's lair. When I learned the news and took people to rescue your mother, he had been raped by the gangsters and became pregnant.

Your mother was only fifteen or sixteen years old at the time, and she was not yet betrothed, so she insisted on aborting her unborn child. However, the doctor said that she had a special constitution. If she had a forced abortion, she would lose two lives. Your mother had no choice. I had no choice but to resign myself to my fate and let my belly grow bigger day by day, and then I gave birth to you.

Your mother gave birth to a child out of wedlock, so naturally she cannot marry. In order to give your mother her freedom, I propose that you be adopted as an adopted son and brought back to the house to be raised. Unexpectedly, your mother fell in love with me and repeatedly proposed to be my concubine. I was already the master at that time, and I was in love with Fu Xi, so naturally I couldn't agree.

Your mother was extremely stubborn and refused to marry no matter how much I tried to persuade her. Later, rumors began to spread outside that your mother was my concubine and you were my son. I couldn't argue with her, but I didn't want Fu Xi to know about it. She refused to listen to my explanation and believed that I had betrayed her.

She found your mother, and in a rage, she killed her with a sword. "

After telling Li Yu about this old story, Duke Zhen Guo burst into tears.

He wiped away tears with his old big hand and murmured: "When I arrived, your mother had already passed away. I was young and vigorous at that time, so I slapped Fu Xi in anger, and later You also know that she has not been able to forgive me for all these years."

The Duke of Zhen Guo choked with sobs and said: "Our family is now broken up."

Over the years, Li Yu has always resented the father of Zhen Guo Gong for not being able to protect his mother, and resented the eldest princess for forcing his mother to death, but he did not know that his mother was the real destroyer.

He staggered and collapsed on the ground, turned around and hugged the tearful Aunt Zhou and asked: "Auntie, is this true?"

 Aunt Zhou was someone close to her mother, so she naturally knew the inside story. No wonder, over the years, whenever he complained about the Duke of Zhen and the eldest princess, Aunt Zhou would speak for them.

“Mommy, what are you talking about? Is this true?” Li Yu hugged Aunt Zhou and shouted repeatedly.

Zhou Yan leaned over and helped Li Yu, wiped the tears: "Child, Grandpa Guo said it is true."

Duke Zhen Guo looked at Li Yu and sighed: "These grievances and resentments all happened in our previous life. Now that you have grown up, I can be considered worthy of your grandfather who died for me." , I will tell you these things today, so that you should not lose your mind because of holding grudges anymore, and leave the Zhenguo Palace and go to Waifu to live your own life."

Li Yu looked at the vicissitudes of the old man in front of him who had been resented by him for more than twenty years. He had mixed feelings in his heart and choked up to him: "You were also unaware of what happened back then. In order to repay your kindness in raising me, I want to make up for you." As for the rift between you and the eldest princess because of my mother, I will also tell you the real cause of my mother’s death today.”
