Chapter 971: What the Hell Is Going On
"Mama Liang?" Mama Qin has been following the Queen Mother for many years, and she has already become a human spirit, so she naturally guessed that it must be for the fact that Ran Yuma was imprisoned in the Dongchang prison earlier, and said to her eyes, "What does the princess want to know?" ”
"The more, the better," Jiang Shu tugged at her lightly, "Please also ask Mama Qin to know everything." ”
"Yes," Mama Qin agreed in a low voice, and said after a moment of silence, "That was twenty-five years ago, that is, in the twelfth year of Wanli. At that time, Concubine Chang Shun of Yonghe Palace had just given birth to the second prince, and she had just given birth to a daughter, and she had enough milk, so she was called into the palace to be the nurse of the second prince. The old slave was ordered by the Queen Mother to help take care of her in Yonghe Palace, and he could be regarded as having spent some time with her. It's a pity that the second prince passed away in less than two months. ”
"And after that? Why did she stay in the palace? Because she was anxious to rescue her husband, Zhu Xuanyu was busy asking.
Mama Qin moved her gaze to her and said: "Her family is poor, in order to earn some money so that her daughter and husband can live a good life in the future, she went to beg the Queen Mother to let her stay in the palace as a slave." The Queen Mother was also from a poor family, and she understood her difficulties, so she agreed, and asked Chen Ju and Chen Gonggong to find her an errand in the palace. ”
"And then, she stayed in the palace all the time?" Jiang Shu guessed.
"No," Mama Qin waved her hand slowly, "She only stayed in the palace for two years at first, and she was very able to endure hardships. Every month, she entrusted the palace maid and eunuch who was in charge of going out of the palace to give it to her family, but she never left the palace gate for two years. Later, he felt that the silver was almost earned, enough for the family to live, so he asked to leave the palace. ”
"Then why did she enter the palace again?" Zhu Xuanyu frowned slightly, "When did you enter the palace again?" ”
"She came back more than a month after she left the palace," Mama Qin said with a slight sigh, "I heard that the way she looked when she first came back really scared people." Grizzled, ragged, with new and old injuries, the whole person seems to have aged more than ten years all of a sudden. said that it was because he was desperate and wanted to return to the palace as a slave. Chen Gonggong knew that she could bear hardships and stand hard work, and he took pity on her, so he let her return to the place where she was on duty before. It's just that since then, her temperament has changed greatly, and she is no longer the Ying girl who loves to talk and laugh and treat people kindly. ”
"Her name is Yingnu? Liang Yingnu? Jiang Shu muttered to himself in a low voice, his eyes moved slightly, and he groaned slightly, "Do you know what happened to her in the past month or so?" ”
"This, the old slave is not very clear," Mama Qin thought for a while, "I heard that it seems that her husband married another woman behind her back and used her hard-earned money to marry another woman, and also gave birth to a son, and sold the daughter she gave birth to, and the two of them took the silver she entrusted someone to take out of the palace every month and lived a life of abundant food and clothing with peace of mind." The old slave thought that when she entered the palace again, she would probably look for her daughter. ”
"I see—" Jiang Shu's heart suddenly understood when he heard this, and at the same time he felt a trace of sympathy for the stern and unsmiling Mama Liang.
No wonder she hated men who relied on women, it turned out that she had been so betrayed and deceived by such a man.
After a pause, she asked in a low voice, "What about ...... Has her daughter been found? ”
Mama Qin shook her head slightly: "I've been looking for it, but I haven't found it." ”
"Oh," Jiang Shu nodded, looking sideways at Zhu Xuanyu beside him, "Xuanyu, what do you think will happen if we help her find her daughter?" ”
