After the zombies traveled through time, they were tricked by the villain into becoming a stepmother

I've gotten used to following my son around and watching him play melons for so many years that I accidentally let out some of his embarrassing moments.

Back then, the eldest daughter of the Chu family would rather run away with a poor boy than marry her son. The Queen Mother could actually understand this. On one side was a young and beautiful young man, and on the other side was going to be someone's stepmother. Even a fool would know what to choose.

It was because the late emperor was too narrow-minded that he forced the Chu family to give up their youngest daughter. Concubine Shu was a legitimate daughter of a noble family, but she had to be a concubine in the Qin Palace and ended up dying young. Alas.

The Queen Mother was probably really old, and now she was easily nostalgic for the past. When she thought of the young Concubine Shu, she couldn't help but miss the children she left behind.

"You can beat her, Xiaoliu. After all, she is thick-skinned and doesn't mind being ashamed. Chenghua needs to be comforted. The incident a while ago was enough to upset her. She came to the palace peacefully but was kicked into the water. So, the girl from the Chu family should be treated well..."

"Don't interrupt me, mother. Just listen to what I have to say!"

"Okay, okay, go ahead and tell me what you want to say."

The emperor looked at the empress dowager's expression, hesitated for a moment, and then muttered uncertainly.

"I think that girl looks a bit like Changle."

The Queen Mother sat up straight, her eyes fixed on her son. The Emperor nodded slightly and repeated it again.

"That girl looks a lot like Changle."

Pei Wuyou, his sister.

Princess Changle, who replaced me many years ago and fell asleep in the years.

The Queen Mother could not control her trembling fingers. It had been many years since her daughter had visited her in her dreams. Now that she was getting older and her memory was getting worse, she was almost forgetting what her daughter looked like.

"really?"

"If you don't believe me, call her into the palace some other day to have a look. That girl looks a little like a Chu family member between her eyebrows and eyes, but her general outline and the dimples on her face are exactly the same as Changle's."

"Yes, yes, your sister does have dimples. Whenever she smiles, she is so sweet that it makes people's hearts soften. During those days in the cold palace, I was able to survive only because of her smile..."

Even though the Empress Dowager was strong-willed and optimistic, she couldn't help shedding tears when she mentioned the sufferings she had endured in her youth. But her mind was still clear, and she had the correct cognition that a normal person should have.

"How could it be? How could the daughter of the Gu family look like a member of the royal family? Could it be...?"

After all, she has been in the palace for her entire life and has seen too many coincidences. She would not think that this kind of coincidence is really just a coincidence.

The empress dowager thought of a possibility, raised her hand to wipe away her tears, then frowned tightly and met the emperor's thoughtful eyes.

The mother and son asked at the same time.

"Mother, do you think it was back then..."

"Emperor, do you think you were so angry that you stole Gu Chuanrong's wife?"

.........

There is a kind of revenge that makes your mother think that you should steal someone else's wife in order to get revenge.

The emperor was so tired that he turned the rosary in his hand vigorously.

The fact that he has this little hobby now was cultivated by his mother! Turning the rosary beads and silently reciting the Heart Purification Mantra many times in his mind, he smoothed out the pent-up anger in his heart. Only then did the filial son open his eyes and look at his mother again.

"Well, Emperor, please don't feel embarrassed. I am your biological mother, and I will definitely not go out and say nonsense. Although this matter is not easy to say, but..."

"Mother! Where is the point of your ridiculous speculation?"

The emperor, who could no longer bear it, slammed the table with his right hand, trying to save his pitiful reputation before his own mother spread rumors.

"I don't have three thousand beauties in my harem, but I should have at least three hundred. If that doesn't work, thirty is also a good number, right? Do I have the need to steal your wife?"

"Well, isn't there an old saying among the people that a wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is not as good as a secret lover? Okay, okay, don't be angry. Can't I just stop talking about it? Even if you didn't steal."

"What do you mean even if? I never did it in the first place!"

The Queen Mother curled her lips in disbelief. After all, she had been following the man for many years. How could she believe what a man said at this time?

Didn’t the emperor himself come over to share the spoils last time, saying that Shangshu Zheng’s newly-born son was actually the result of the enthusiastic help of the younger son of the Vice Minister of War next door?

The truth is clearly this, but the two families refused to admit it. So a man's mouth is like that of a duck, it remains as hard as iron until death!

The emperor has been a sociable child since he was young. He was afraid that his old mother would be lonely in the deep palace for so many years, so he was so filial that he dragged his mother to eat melons with him.

Now you see, the side effects are here, aren't they? The Queen Mother has been able to imagine a bloody drama from some clues!

He sighed deeply and didn't beat around the bush. Anyway, his mother had always been very strong-willed and didn't look like someone who was unhappy.

"Mother, I also think that Chu Chi is a little suspicious. Please don't interrupt me. Just listen to me.

Or maybe she was deliberately sought out by someone with ulterior motives, perhaps to do something unspeakable.

Now the position of crown prince is vacant. Ever since the second son was kicked out by me, the entire court and harem have been in turmoil.

It is possible that someone who is well-informed is trying to find a way to seize the initiative."

When it comes to serious matters, the Queen Mother's political sense is still very reliable.

"Who do you think is so powerful? When I was banished to the cold palace with Wuyou by the late emperor for eleven years, your sister basically never saw outsiders.

Later, you managed to win the old man's favor and rescued us. But before we had a few days of peace, your sister died."

The empress dowager swallowed the sob in her throat and analyzed the possible potential enemies for the emperor with a clear mind.

"There were only a handful of people who had seen Wuyou at the time, and so many years have passed. Who would have the ability to find someone who looks like my son and send him to the palace?

Your guess doesn't make much sense."

"I think so too, so I have another guess, maybe it's possible."

The emperor's eyes darkened, and his tone was filled with the coldness and indifference that belonged to an emperor.

"Then Chu Chi, maybe it's possible that she is my daughter."

The Queen Mother's eyes became a little strange for a moment.

And you still say you didn’t steal Gu Chuanrong’s wife?

Now I've let the cat out of the bag, right?

But she is a mother and she has to protect her son's reputation, so she just pretended she didn't understand.
