Chapter 633: But if I want to ascend the throne smoothly, I must clear some obstacles first
Ouyang Liuli also followed the woman out of the carriage.
Seeing the woman kneeling again, she couldn't help but feel some sympathy.
She subconsciously stepped forward and tried to help the woman up.
But this time, the woman raised her head, looked at Ouyang Liuli with red eyes, and shook her head gently.
“Girl, I know you’re a good person.
But you have to let me kowtow to you.
In fact, I know that I am also guilty of what happened today.
It's one thing for you to not care about me, but I have to be clear about it.
Although it was the people around the prince who asked me to bring my child to you to beg for food.
But it’s not like I didn’t think there was something wrong.
I...I was actually greedy for money.
That's why I agreed to the man's request without much consideration.
But you have to believe me, if I knew that the prince wanted to harm your lives by killing us mother and son.
I will never agree to that.”
The woman now felt regretful and scared, and continued with a trembling voice,
“If not, you are both capable and kind-hearted.
My son and I will not only die here, but we will also implicate the nobles."
After saying that, the woman kowtowed three times on the ground.
Everyone could see that if she didn't kowtow, she would never get over this hurdle in her heart.
After he finished bowing, Xiao Muze took the lead and asked:
“Why are you begging outside with your child?
Where is your original home?
Where is the child's father?"
When the woman was asked about the father of her child, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
After a while, she choked and wiped away her tears.
“To be honest, the child’s father was taken away to serve in the military two years ago.
About a year after he joined the army, he died on the battlefield.
Both my child’s father and I are orphans.
We finally fell in love with each other, got married, and had A Mao.
I originally thought that I could finally live a more peaceful life, but I didn't expect that my child's father would die on the battlefield.
I really don’t know why we Beidi always have so many wars to fight?
In our village, there are many people who joined the army and went to the battlefield and never returned.
In the end, countless elderly widows, women and children were left behind.
The pensions for soldiers who died on the battlefield were pitifully small.
Therefore, there are many women like me who beg with their children. "
Having said this, the woman sighed deeply.
After hearing what the woman said, Xiao Muzhe felt both self-blame and heartache in his eyes.
He blamed himself for being the prince of Beidi but not being able to persuade his father to reduce the war.
I feel sorry for the many people in Beidi who have suffered from war for so many years.
"Get up."
Ouyang Liuli reached out and helped the woman up.
Xiao Muze didn't say much, he took two white flour buns and handed them to the woman.
"You're probably still hungry, right?
Eat two steamed buns first.
As a prince, I have a great responsibility for the suffering of our Beidi people.
However, I will do my best to change the situation of our Beidi people fighting for years as soon as possible."
The woman quickly wiped her hands on herself, then reached out to take the steamed bun.
"Thank you, Third Prince."
After saying that, she carefully put a steamed bun into her sleeve pocket, then broke the steamed bun in half and put it into her sleeve pocket again.
Finally, he ate the half steamed bun in his hand with satisfaction.
Xiao Muzhe felt very sad when he saw the woman doing this.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end no word came out.
Facing the reality, any words are pale and powerless.
All he can do is try to change the situation.
He thought so, his eyes full of determination.
Early the next morning, they set out again.
However, the speed is still in accordance with the previous plan.
When the prince heard the news, he was furious.
"Are you saying that the Third Prince stayed there for the night before slowly coming to the capital?"
“Yes, your highness.
Judging from their speed, it should take them another half a day to reach the capital."
A spy dressed in black knelt on the ground and reported.
The prince narrowed his eyes.
"This Xiao Muze really doesn't take my words seriously."
He rode his horse day and night to the capital, and returned to the palace in less than a day.
Of course, a big part of the reason why he was in a hurry to come back was to continue watching over his father.
The spy knelt on the ground and didn't dare to answer.
The prince said again:
“It seems that his father is not that important in his heart.
But his father missed him every day.
My father is almost dead, but he is still looking forward to his return.
Ha ha!
If the father knew that his son, whom he cared so much about, did not take him seriously.
Or, even directly ignore him as their father.
That would be a good show to watch!"
As the prince spoke, his eyes gradually brightened.
Suddenly a vicious plan came to mind.
If my father was angered to death by Xiao Muzhe, that would be truly unbelievable.
The prince's eyes rolled quickly, and then he waved at the spy.
"Go keep an eye on the Third Prince, and come immediately if there's any unusual movement."
"Yes."
The black-clad spy retreated.
The prince stood up and went to the harem.
In the Shuihua Palace, Concubine Yu was dressing herself in front of a bronze mirror.
Yu Meiren was a newcomer to the King of Beidi who had been in the palace for less than a year.
She was only 28 years old and had a charming appearance. As soon as she entered the palace, she was deeply loved by the King of Beidi.
The prince walked all the way to Shuihua Palace but did not enter through the main gate.
He dodged the palace servants and leaped forward, heading straight for Concubine Yu's bedroom.
Yu Meiren had just drawn a pair of willow-leaf eyebrows for herself when she heard the window being gently pushed open.
She couldn't help but smile, her eyes full of joy.
She turned around quickly and met the prince's tender eyes.
The prince said nothing more, but took a few steps forward, lifted Yu Meiren from the stool, and held her in his arms.
"Little beauty, do you want to be alone?"
Yu Meiren bit her lip lightly and responded tenderly:
"I look forward to your coming day and night.
But for more than half a month, His Highness has not come to see me.
I thought Your Highness had forgotten me!"
After saying that, Yu Meiren turned her face away slightly, looking aggrieved.
The prince curled his lips and smiled slightly.
"You little devil, you are so seductive.
How could I forget you?
It’s just that my father has been unwell recently.
I am busy taking care of my sick son day and night, so it is inconvenient for me to come to see you."
Yu Meiren bit her lip again.
"Your Highness, when will you let me be your woman?
From beginning to end, there is only Your Highness in my heart."
The prince reached out and pinched Concubine Yu's waist.
"Don't worry, it'll be soon.
When my father passes away, I will arrange another identity for you.
Then you can follow me with a clear conscience.
However, the prerequisite is that I can become the new king of Beidi."
Yu Meiren was delighted when she heard this.
"Your Highness is the crown prince and should be the next king of Beidi."
The prince frowned upon hearing this, his face full of worry.
“Although what you said is correct, if I want to ascend the throne smoothly, I must clear some obstacles first.
And you can help me.”
