Chapter 589: A Distress Thing
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The Crown Prince didn’t have the support of his mother’s clan, and because the Crown Prince had voluntarily surrendered in this battle, he had even ceded his territory to compensate them. After returning to the palace, he was joined by the other princes and forced out of the Northland.
Rather than saying that he was a guest, it was better to say that he was a hostage in exchange for benefits.
Their Taizhizi didn’t openly acknowledge Princess Ming Yue because they were afraid of bringing trouble to her.
Actually, with his thoughts, the Crown Prince was worrying too much. However, the Crown Prince’s only relative in this world, other than his cold-hearted and cold-blooded Imperial Father, was only this Princess Ming Yue. The Crown Prince’s cautiousness towards the matter of recognizing relatives was inevitable.
In fact, he had already investigated. Although there were not many people in the princess’ manor, the security in the manor was as tight as an iron bucket. It was impossible for those people to even hear the movements of the grass in the princess’ manor.
But no matter what, these things were not something a guard like him could interfere in.
Two days before the new year, MO Ruyue was so annoyed by Su Luo that she came to him first.
Usually, Su Luo would go to MO Ruyue first. Otherwise, MO Ruyue would not even look at him for the entire day.
When Su Luo saw that her sister had taken the initiative to look for him today, the little deer in her heart was extremely excited and cheered.
On the surface, he also showed a very happy expression. He could not control the expression on his face at all.
“Princess Little Sister, why do you have the time to come and find me today?”
“Did something happen?”
MO Ruyue waved her hand to signal for all the servants in the room to leave. Chun Hua then led everyone out.
Su Luffs personal guard was still unwilling to leave, but with a light gaze from Su Luo, he ran faster than Chun Hua.
Su Luo was still considered an outsider to MO Ruyue. When the two of them were talking in the house, the door had to be opened, and there had to be servants guarding the door.
“I’m not joking with you. Don’t play dumb with me. Just tell me the truth.
What’s the meaning of coming here this time?”
“Is it related to my birth or is it your own idea? Are we related in any way?”
“Just say it.”
Su Luo was happy and distressed at the same time. However, he was still happy that his sister was willing to take the initiative to talk to him about this.
Her voice was neither loud nor soft, and the two people in the room could hear her.
“You’re so smart, you should be able to guess a little. When the war just stopped, I sent people to investigate your background. Although it’s not comprehensive, I feel that you’re most likely my biological sister.”
“I’m only three years older than you.”
“Back then, her maternal grandfather was a Divine General of the Northern Kingdom. The Emperor was afraid that his achievements would surpass his master’s, so he added fuel to the fire and caused her maternal grandfathers family to be framed by others. Almost all her family members were killed. Consort Mother was furious. The once loving couple had become enemies overnight.”
“My mother almost killed the Emperor. After she was stopped, she wanted to escape from the palace no matter what. She originally brought me out, but I was stopped halfway. My mother vowed not to return to the palace. She was still pregnant with you at that time. With the help of the nanny, she escaped from the north to Xi Liang.”
“She didn’t want you to go back to the dragon’s den and suffer, so she entrusted you to a farmer’s family she met on the way. She only hoped that you would grow up happily like a normal, carefree farmer’s child.”
“When I met my mother again, I was five.”
“She only told me that I have a younger sister. If we meet in the future, 1 must treat her well, just like how I treat my mother.”
“At that time, I was young and ignorant. I only remembered Imperial Mother’s words, but two days later, Imperial Mother passed away.”
“In a few days, I will become the Crown Prince of the Northern Kingdom.”
As Su Luo spoke, he turned his head and saw that his back was trembling.
Even if Su Luo didn’t explain in detail, MO Ruyue could guess that his mother must have made some deal with the Emperor of the Northern Kingdom, or used some method to exchange her death for her son to become the Crown Prince of the Northern Kingdom.
“How can you be sure that it must be me? There are many people in the world who look alike.’
MO Ruyue still wanted to struggle. She didn’t want to take revenge for her mother’s death.
However, things did not go as he wished.
“There should be a birthmark on your back that matches the pattern of the jade 1 gave you, right?”
“You were born in the MO Family Village 20 years ago, so all of this makes sense. The family that adopted you back then was called MO Shuisheng.”
“It was a pity that the nanny was no longer around and had gone to accompany Mother.”
Su Luo rubbed his face and faced MO Ruyue.
“Too many coincidences are not coincidences, they are facts.”
“Consort Mother had also made a jade tablet for you back then. It was made in the Northern Kingdom, but she lost it when she gave birth to you. She thought that it was good to lose it, perhaps it was God’s will that didn’t want you to return to that cold-blooded palace.”
“The birthmark on your back isn’t a real birthmark. It’s just a special technique passed down from your maternal grandfather’s family to mark newborns.’
“Actually, Consort Mother still hoped that I would be able to find you one day.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have given you a birthmark.”
Su Luo saw that his sister had not refuted him at all, so she must have a birthmark on her body. Moreover, his sister should have believed what he said.
He continued before MO Ruyue could ask any questions.
“However, I hope that we don’t acknowledge each other on the surface. Just pretend that we have nothing to do with each other.”
MO Ruyue thought, ‘l don’t have to pretend.’
“If you really want to call me big brother, then call me big brother in private.” “Don’t misunderstand, you should have guessed that I came to Xi Liang because I lost a battle.’
“I’m not the only heir to the royal family of the Northern Kingdom. It’s not safe for you to acknowledge me,”
“Seeing you like this, Consort Mother should be able to rest in peace.”
“Then you rest first. I’ll go back and take a break first.”
MO Ruyue stood up and left.
“Alright, I’ll go.”
“Don’t feel any psychological burden.”
“But don’t worry, as long as you’re willing, when I get that position, I’ll definitely bring you back to the Northland in glory and make you a real princess. ”
After MO Ruyue returned to her own courtyard, she happened to bump into Gu Ying who had just returned for lunch.
Gu Ying realized that something was wrong with MO Ruyue. Moreover, Su Luo didn’t pester his wife to walk around the village today.
“What’s bothering you?”
“Is it because of Su Luo?’!
Unexpectedly, MO Ruyue really nodded.
Therefore, MO Ruyue repeated what Su Luo had told her to Gu Ying word for word.
“How did I become the Princess of the Northland who bears a blood feud?” Gu Ying did not know how to persuade them about this.
If he wanted her not to go back to her original family, it didn’t sound like she didn’t want to.
She wanted to admit it, but she was so conflicted.
His heart ached for MO Ruyue.
“Wife, don’t make things difficult for yourself.”
“If you don’t want to acknowledge your identity as a northerner, then be the Princess Ming Yue of Xi Liang, Gu Yings wife.”
“If you want to be the princess of the Northern Kingdom, you will still be my wife. I will definitely accompany you. Even if it is a mountain of knives and a sea of fire, we are not afraid.’
However, Gu Ying, who was hugging MO Ruyue, gritted his teeth. If not for the fact that the MO family had all died, he would definitely go and exterminate them!
I wonder if I can still find their bones…
Gu Ying secretly thought to himself, but MO Ruyue naturally didn’t know.
She was also struggling with herself in her heart..
