Chapter 153 The Concubine's Sister Wants to Recognize Her Parents

Mrs. Wang, the wife of the Minister of Rites, brought her two daughters to attend the birthday banquet of Princess Rui.

Princess Rui took Madam Wang's concubine's daughter and said, "This child looks exactly like my lost daughter."

Mrs. Wang didn't dare to respond.

When the current emperor ascended the throne, he was still young and incapable of governing, leading to political instability. Prince Rui, the emperor's uncle, acted as regent.

Now that the emperor has grown up and wants to rule the country himself, he must weaken the power of the aristocratic families and Prince Rui. He must start with the Tong family, the natal family of Prince Rui's wife, and demote them to commoners.

No one in the capital dared to seek marriage with Princess Rui, and everyone was waiting and watching.

The same is true for Mrs. Wang.

"I want to adopt her as my goddaughter, is that okay?"

Mrs. Wang didn't dare to say anything and was just thinking of some way to politely refuse. But Wang Ruobing didn't think so. She just felt that she was finally going to make it big. If she really became a princess, her father and mother would kneel down and kowtow to her.

When Madam Wang saw that Wang Ruobing immediately changed her words and called Princess Rui "mother" and herself "Madam Wang", her heart turned cold.

Seeing the smug look in Wang Ruobing's eyes again, he still kept silent.

A few days later, the emperor suddenly issued an edict, requiring the newly appointed Princess Changping of Prince Rui's Mansion to marry into the Northern Yi as a peace agreement.

Wang Ruobing immediately burst into tears and made a lot of noise.

Everyone knows that the northern barbarians are barbaric. It is said that even if the father dies, the son can still inherit his father's concubine.

Wang Ruobing then looked at everyone in the palace with a venomous look, like she had set a fire at night, and said in a frenzied manner, "Zhang Zhilan! Did you already know what Princess Rui was planning? Pretending to acknowledge a daughter, and then asking me to marry her daughter in her place? Why didn't you stop me? Why didn't you let your daughter be Princess Rui's daughter? You bitch! Go to hell together!"

Wang Ruomei said angrily, "Even if my mother stopped her from recognizing her relatives, what would happen? She would still resent us for blocking her from prosperity and wealth! Therefore, she is the one who deserves to die! I will make sure she never reincarnates!"

"As you wish!" After saying that, Sheng Jiang disappeared.

……

On the day of Princess Rui's birthday banquet, she looked at Wang Ruobing and said, "This child looks so much like my lost daughter. She's destined to be with me. I want to adopt her as my adopted daughter. What do you think, Madam Wang?"

Mrs. Wang was about to refuse, but Sheng Jiang pulled her sleeve and she shook her head slightly.

But Wang Ruobing bowed joyfully, "Mother, it is my blessing to be your daughter. Mother, please accept my bow."

"Good girl, get up quickly!" King Rui was overjoyed. His daughter was finally saved.

Amidst the halfhearted congratulations, only Lady Wang's expression grimaced. How could she not have seen before how this concubine's daughter could be so cold and indifferent? She hadn't even given her consent, yet she was calling someone "mother." Where did that put her? Wouldn't the other court ladies think she was mistreating the concubine? Was that why she was so eager to flee the Shangshu Mansion?

Sheng Jiang spoke up, "Princess, my sister really looks like you. Could she really be the daughter you lost so many years ago? Princess, just to be on the safe side, why don't we ask the imperial physician to perform a blood test to verify our relationship?"

Princess Rui looked at the gossipy faces of the court ladies around her and thought that if it was her own daughter, she wouldn't have grown up with her anyway, so she wouldn't feel bad even if she sent her away to marry. If it wasn't her own daughter, she could still gain a good reputation, so she agreed.

After the imperial physician examined her, it was revealed that Wang Ruobing was actually related to Princess Rui?! However, their blood hadn't completely merged, indicating they weren't biological daughters.

"How is this going?"

The imperial physician was very experienced and said, "Perhaps Miss Wang's biological mother is related to the princess."

Princess Rui thought of her dead sister, her face icy. Could it be that my good sister is not dead? Or did she give birth to a daughter back then?

It seems that it depends on whether the prince and Wang Ruobing are related by blood.

Princess Rui's expression changed, then returned to normal, chatting and laughing with everyone.

Only Wang Ruobing was still immersed in the beautiful dream that she was really related to Princess Rui by blood, and felt that she was a real princess.

That day, Princess Rui kept her in the palace and gave her two maids.

When Sheng Jiang and Madam Wang returned home, Aunt Zhou didn't see her daughter and immediately asked, "Where is my Bing'er?"

Mrs. Wang said coldly, "Your daughter is now the daughter of Princess Rui, so she must stay in the palace."

"How is this possible?" Aunt Zhou's face turned pale.

"How is this impossible? The imperial physician has examined it and found that your daughter's blood is mixed with the princess's."

When Aunt Zhou thought of some bad experience, her whole body fell apart.

At this moment, Wang Ruobing came back.

Zhou Yi Niang's eyes lit up, and she stepped forward to hold Wang Ruobing's hand, but she dodged.

"Auntie, please respect yourself. I am now the daughter of Princess Rui, the current princess. I am not someone a lowly creature like you can touch."

"What... did you say?" Aunt Zhou probably didn't expect that her daughter, whom she had raised with so much difficulty, would treat her like this after she became attached to the powerful.

"And you, why don't you kneel down and salute me when you see me?" Wang Ruobing looked around and said to Lord Wang and Madam Wang.

"You!" Lord Wang was also shocked. He had been an official for many years, walking on thin ice, cautious and fearful of offending some powerful person, afraid of becoming a thorn in the emperor's side. How could he raise such a stupid and foolish daughter? She was so eager to curry favor with the powerful.

Wang Ruobing was very angry with Lord Wang, who was always strict.

"Sir Wang, am I wrong? I am the daughter of the regent, Prince Rui. And you, Sir Wang, are only a fourth-rank official. Isn't it normal for you to kneel down and pay your respects to me?"

Lord Wang's face turned red as he bowed along with Madam Wang and the others.

Wang Ruobing looked smug.

Aunt Zhou was incredulous. "Bing'er? You don't even call him dad anymore? You just call him Lord Wang? How did you become like this?"

"Isn't it all your fault that I've become like this? Why did you leave the palace in the first place? Leaving me to be a concubine in this shabby courtyard, inferior to everyone else in every way?"

"You are the master's biological daughter. If you are not here, where else can you be?"

"Humph! My mother told me that you are actually a thief! You hold a grudge against my mother, so you stole her child and raised him with you just to get revenge on her!"

"You're talking nonsense! I carried you for ten months, how could you be her daughter? Bing'er, your mother left the palace back then, but the prince wasn't a good match, and the princess was jealous. Look at all these years, although Prince Rui has been powerful, he has few children. You know, the palace is not as simple as you think!

If I hadn't left back then, would I have allowed that bitch Zhou Rong to send me to King Rui's bed, help her consolidate her favor, and help her bear children?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Wang Ruobing slapped her in the face. Aunt Zhou's eyes were filled with grief, "You... actually hit me?"

"I'll beat you if I want. Do I have to choose a day? You've slandered my mother like that. Even if I beat you to death with a stick, who would dare to say anything?"

Wang Ruobing was still not satisfied after beating her, so he kicked Aunt Zhou in the stomach.

Concubine Zhou was already showing signs of pregnancy, and the doctor said it was a boy. She was very cautious, and Lady Wang took good care of her. Lady Wang also tried to avoid her as much as possible.

Now, he was kicked to death by his own daughter.

Lord Wang was very angry and stepped forward and slapped him.

He was in poor health and had difficulty having children. He finally had two children, both girls.

Wang Ruobing's kick was intended to cut off the roots of his Wang family.

He had forgotten that Lady Wang had once been pregnant with a son, but her pregnancy was aborted by his favorite concubine, Aunt Zhou, when she was seven months pregnant.

Sheng Jiang watched the farce and gave Mrs. Wang a handful of melon seeds. "Mom, eating melon and this is the perfect match."

Mrs. Wang gave Jiang a complicated look and said nothing, but she still took the melon seeds.

"You old bastard! You dare to hit me? I'll fight you!"

The nanny who followed Wang Ruobing also watched the fun from the side, not helping anyone. How could this concubine's daughter of Lord Wang be acting like a shrew?

But they didn't care. Anyway, this so-called princess was used for marriage.

In the end, fearing that Wang Ruobing's appearance would be ruined, he advised, "Sir Wang, the princess is still a member of the Rui Palace. Sir Wang spoke rudely to the princess and even fought with her. Is he trying to challenge the authority of the Rui Palace?"

Lord Wang calmed down and stopped. Wang Ruobing took the opportunity to kick him and spit at him.

"Bah! Just wait, I'll go back and tell my mother, and I'll definitely remove you from your position!"

Wang Ruobing packed up some things and left without looking back.

The next day, the emperor issued an edict to confer the title of Princess Ping'an on Wang Ruobing, changed her name to Zhao Ruobing, and recorded her name in the royal family genealogy.

For a time, Zhao Ruobing was the most popular person, even Zhao Xiyue, the biological daughter of Prince Rui, who was known to everyone in the capital for her arrogance, was inferior to her.

"Mother, she's a bitch, not my biological daughter. Why should she be a princess? And she dares to call me sister?"

Princess Rui looked at her daughter lovingly, "Mother doesn't want to either. But if you don't recognize her, the emperor will have to let you marry. How can mother bear to let you marry so far away? And in such a wild place?"

"So that's how it is? Or maybe Mother loves me the most."

"What?" Zhao Ruobing, who had just walked to the door, heard this and looked at Princess Rui in disbelief. "Mother, why do you want me to go on the marriage? I won't go!"

"This is the decision of His Majesty, and I can do nothing about it."

"So, Mother accepted me as her daughter just to get me married in her place? I won't marry!"

"You have to marry her whether you want to or not. It's not up to you! Come, lock her up for me and bring her food every day. No one is allowed to let her out without my order!"

"Mother, I am also your daughter. You can't treat me like this..."

"Humph! You're not my daughter! You're the daughter of that bitch mother of yours. Both of you are lowly! If it weren't for the fact that you resemble me, do you think I would acknowledge you as my daughter? Take you away!"

Zhao Ruobing now regrets it deeply. She went on a hunger strike in protest, but before she could even last a day, she was too hungry to bear it and obediently ate dog food.

No matter how the Rui Palace treated her, she still hated Madam Wang. If Madam Wang had stopped her from recognizing her relatives that day, she would not have ended up like this.

I don’t know what Princess Rui was thinking. She couldn’t even keep an eye on one person, so she let Zhao Ruobing escape under the cover of night.

She ran to Lord Wang's house and set fire to it. Just when she thought she had burned everyone in the house to death, she was caught by Sheng Jiang.

"Impossible! I heard my father's screams and curses. How come you and your mother are still alive?" Zhao Ruobing screamed.

"Because my mother and I are not at home," Sheng Jiang said with a smile.

"I asked in advance, and no one is going out of the mansion today!"

"Oh, that was a sudden decision we made to go out. Do you have any objection?"

Ginger built a fire and pushed her directly into it.

"Since you enjoy setting fires so much, why not try it yourself?"

Zhao Ruobing scared her so much that she screamed.

"Let me go! I'm the daughter of Princess Rui! If you kill me, she won't let you go!"

"Well, you reminded me. If you die, who will marry you?

I heard that fathers and sons there can share women, and eat raw meat and drink raw blood. They are totally uncivilized.

Such treatment is only for a noble princess like you. But I can collect some interest in advance!"

Zhao Ruobing's whole body was burned like charcoal, leaving only his two eyes, which were round and bulging, looking at Jiang angrily.

"It's just impotent rage. Considering your wish for marriage, I will restore you to your original state."

Sheng Jiang and Madam Wang submitted a letter to Prince Rui's mansion and sent Zhao Ruobing over.

"Princess, you must keep an eye on good people in the future, otherwise you never know which mansion will be burned down next time."

Zhao Ruobing was imprisoned in the ancestral hall.

Half a month later, the emperor issued an edict ordering Princess Ping'an to marry the Northern Barbarians.

Princess Rui breathed a sigh of relief. But before she could be happy for long, another decree came down, ordering Princess Pingle to marry into the Northern Barbarians.

Princess Rui: ...I've been planning for so long, and it was all in vain? She hugged her daughter in pain.

Instead, Zhao Ruobing laughed heartily, "Serves you right! You were so clever and calculated that you ended up costing me your life!"

Your Majesty's meaning is very clear. Even if Prince Rui is sent to marry a princess, I must weaken your power.

Prince Rui was unwilling to accept this, and the princes and ministers were also trembling with fear. If Prince Rui fell, they would be the next to fall.

After some discussion, they decided to rebel.

But the emperor is no longer the young boy he used to be. He has a deep mind and does not show his emotions on his face.

Deliberately leaked false information and let down vigilance on the day of the marriage between the two princesses.

As expected, Prince Rui led his troops into the city. Unexpectedly, the gates were locked shut as soon as they entered. Many archers appeared on the city walls, and ahead, the Imperial Guards were waiting in full battle formation.

"King Rui, please dismount and surrender!" the commander shouted.

"What a joke! Doesn't dismounting mean death?" Prince Rui laughed heartily, looking up to the heavens. "Today, it is Heaven that is determined to kill me! Not Zhao Wenzhao!"

After saying this, he committed suicide by cutting his neck.

After King Rui died, the remaining people were a motley crowd and were quickly captured.

Prince Rui’s palace was also sealed off, and those who should be exiled were exiled, and those who should be imprisoned were imprisoned.

The huge Prince Rui's Palace is now desolate and deserted.

Zhao Ruobing married the old emperor of Beiyi, who was over 60 years old. Two years later, the old emperor died, and his sons began to fight for the throne, fighting each other until they were bloody.

Finally, the third son ascended the throne, and Zhao Ruobing married him again. Later, when he died, she married the third son's son.

The people there looked down on the Han people and tortured her all day long, so Zhao Ruobing became haggard after a few years and died at the age of 40.

After death, the soul is thrown into the underworld by ginger and cannot be reincarnated.
