I fought back after reselling my engagement

Princess Changle looked up at the roof and said, "How would I know about the elders' affairs? Your uncle is much older than your mother, so it shouldn't be possible... It's impossible..."

Zhen Su whispered, "You really don't know?"

"I don't know anything. When I left the capital, my father gave me the land deed and told me that it was for my family..."

Family? As soon as Princess Changle said this, her eyes changed immediately.

Princess Changle stared at Zhen Su steadily, squinting her eyes and looking him over from head to toe. "I've met your fourth cousin Zhen Rong and your third sister. You don't look like them at all."

"I look like my mother. None of my facial features resemble those of the Zhen family. Of course I don't look like them."

Princess Changle looked at him intently: What does father mean by "our family"?

She heard from the eunuchs around the Fifth Prince that the eunuchs wanted her to help speak well of the Fifth Prince in front of Princess Jiarou, saying that the Fifth Prince was so infatuated and pitiful. If he could not marry Princess Jiarou, he would probably never be happy in his life.

Why didn’t the emperor’s uncle grant the marriage?

Even if she was a softie, she could be a concubine, but he didn't agree. He also heard that Concubine Shu knelt down and begged the emperor to grant her marriage in order to help the Fifth Prince, but the emperor still didn't agree.

This is really unusual.

The reason why the emperor's uncle did not respond was most likely because there was something wrong with Princess Jiarou's background.

The girl in front of him was very beautiful. People in the capital said that she looked like her mother and also like the old lady Su. The mother and daughter were both famous beauties back then. With Su Wan's appearance, temperament, and background, how could she marry someone of a lower status, and marry the unruly Zhen Yuan?

Since the wife was not pregnant, Zhen Yuan's concubine gave birth to a daughter first.

The eldest daughter of a concubine is older than Jiarou, and that’s not all. Even Zhen Yuan’s eldest son is three months older than Jiarou. What is going on?

The neighbor was suspicious, and Princess Changle became suspicious. She sat aside, recalling the emperor's uncle's behavior and words, and then looked at Zhen Su's. Now she sat at the desk, opening the red envelopes and writing a list.

Princess Changle recalled the expression and appearance of the emperor's uncle when he was reviewing memorials. It was surprisingly similar to Zhen Su in front of her, the way he picked up the pen, the look of deep thought...

She felt that she might have guessed the truth. The beautiful Su Wan married another man, and her husband's concubine gave birth to children before her. Why did she die of depression later? There must be a reason behind it. Her father's words "family" must mean that her father knew the truth.

Oh my god, is this really the case?

Zhen Su was born with Su's family name, but now that she thinks about it, this character is really familiar. Isn't this the compassionate character of Empress Gaozu? It is said that she was reluctant to step on even an ant in her life. Empress Gaozu was also her biological grandmother.

Thinking back to the Zhen Yuan she had met, he was really disappointing in every way. He was only pretty and his behavior was a bit vulgar. How could such a Zhen Yuan give birth to such a beautiful daughter?

Princess Changle made a gesture, and a female guard came up to her. She leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Keep an eye on Su Jingzhai and his son, especially at night, and see what they say."

"Yes, county lord."

There were so many gifts that it took half a day to sort out the book. All the gold, silver and silver notes were put together. Everything else could be moved, but the ones given by Lu Yan had to be put aside. Zhen Su sorted out the gold, silver and silver notes and put all the silver notes into a small box along with the gift book. "Sister Changle, this time I received a total of 235,600 taels of silver notes. Take them back when you go home. As for the imperial farm, I really can't accept it. It's too valuable.

Prince Gong has lived a life of integrity and honesty, and has many children and grandchildren. It is not easy to support them, so I should keep some for them. I am a girl, and I don’t need so much family property. The house is enough for me to live in, the shop can make rouge and snacks, and the farm is enough to support me and my servants..."

Princess Changle was stuffed with a box. "You really don't want it?"

Zhen Su smiled and said, "Take the two boxes of gold and silver and the box of banknotes back with you, and I'll take the rest."

"I have only been here for a few days and have not had enough fun in Hunan Province. How can I leave? If you want to send something away, why don't I send someone to chase Lu Yan? This kid is loyal to the emperor and obeys his orders. He will definitely not dare to touch a tael of silver."

"I don't want to talk to him."

Princess Changle looked through the list, which clearly stated who donated the money and how much it was, as if it was a donation to the court. She said, "I didn't donate his money to the court."

"His money is hard-earned money, earned with his life. You don't know how poor his family is. His sister was sold to a juren master's house as a maid because of the family's poverty. He is heartless, does nothing serious, doesn't know how to arrange things, and still gives me money. He thinks I am soft-hearted and will arrange things for him.

My mother's farm is right next to his house, outside the village entrance and inside the village. If I didn't see that he was a hero and a great general, I wouldn't bother with her.

I know Uncle Lu, Aunt Lu, and Lu Xing's personalities too well. If they live in the city, they will suffer. They like life in the countryside, working from sunrise to sunset, tending to the crops, and having a good harvest can make them happy for a long time...

Respect their way of life, see smiles on their faces, and stop them from being cold and hungry. This is the joy and happiness they want!"

Princess Changle thought of Lu Yan giving all his savings from his eleven years of military service to Zhen Su, and she couldn't help laughing, so she joked, "Do you have a secret with General Lu?"

She listened to Prince Gong as a funny thing. Lu Yan insisted in front of Emperor Dezhi and the Second Prince that Zhen Su fell in love with him at first sight, and because she liked him, she had taken care of his family for many years and was the savior of his family.

Concubine Wan once proposed to marry the daughter of the Wan family to Lu Yan, but Lu Yan said everywhere that he already had someone in his heart and wanted to repay her kindness with his life. There was no official above the fifth rank in the entire capital who did not know that Lu Yan loved Princess Jiarou.

Princess Changle pondered and said, "I'll ask Shijian to chase him and give him the money. He will also give it to the emperor." As she raised her hand, Shijian behind her handed over a box, "This is what General Lu asked me to give to you. It's not given by him. You will know the details when you open the box."

There were several seals on the box, and the seal on top was a diamond-shaped stamp.

"Good work."

After Princess Changle left, Zhen Su opened the box. There were two cards inside. One was the identity card symbolizing the elders of the Beggar Gang. It was different from the one she had given away at the beginning. That one was the card of the third elder, and this one was the card of the sixth elder.

The other was a golden phoenix-patterned plaque with a seven-patterned golden phoenix carved vividly on it, with four large characters in ancient seal script "As if I were personally present" engraved on the top. The words "Da Qi Supervisory Office" were engraved on the top of the back, and "Made in the Da Qi Imperial Palace" were engraved at the bottom.

In addition to the two signs, there were also two indentures. From what they showed, they were two girls who were skilled in martial arts, one was sixteen years old, and the other was seventeen years old.
