She fell out after crying at the wrong grave

Ah-yi frowned, "Can you say it again?"

I thought to myself, I don’t have this kind of habit, why should I be held responsible?

She said this as if she had bullied Xiao Jin and done something ridiculous like a gangster.

The pure land in front of the Buddha cannot be talked about nonsense.

Seeing this, Xiao Jin's mouth drooped and she became anxious, "Then, what should I do? I already have it!"

Ah's mouth opened in surprise.

What do you mean by got it?

Since she couldn't write any more, Ah-yi simply pushed the paperweight away and rushed over, "What did you get?"

A'an was tall and Xiao Jin was too petite. When she approached, Xiao Jin could only look up and glare at her. She had already lost most of her momentum. "That's right, it's pregnant." After saying that, she couldn't save face and pushed her away and walked to the window.

If you tell anyone about this kind of unfaithful behavior, I'm afraid they will have the same attitude.

The beams of the old house outside the window were covered with a thick layer of lush green moss. Xiao Jin looked at it, her face filled with sorrow, and she sighed.

Ah-yi stood there, looking in every direction, and then asked, "Who is it? Inside the palace or outside?"

Xiao Jin didn't want to talk about this embarrassing thing in public, but now that she had a child, the only one who could help her in the palace was probably A'ao.

"You know this person, but it's not a complete affair..." Xiao Jin was too embarrassed to defend herself, but since she could think it through, she spoke openly, "You know that Emperor Wu'an has a young son, born to a maid in the palace, and not considered noble. He made a mistake a few years ago and angered your father, so he was exiled to guard the imperial mausoleum the year he ascended the throne. He is only thirty-five now."

This gossip was so thrilling that Ah-yi covered her lips exaggeratedly, walked a few steps closer to her side, and sat down. She pushed the paper and inkstone away and immediately poured hot tea, "Tell me in detail, tell me in detail."

The quick change in attitude made Xiao Jin look at her in a very strange way.

"Actually, this is also my fault."

This imperial uncle, who lived to the age of thirty and was still invisible, was actually even more inconspicuous in the palace than A'ao.

Emperor Wu'an attached great importance to bloodline, so he valued Shen Cong, the son of the Queen, more. Even Shen Zhuo did not get the treatment of a legitimate son, so Shen Yuren, the son of this palace maid, was even less valued.

Shen Yu had lived with his mother in the servants' quarters of the West Palace since he was a child. Because he had given birth to a royal heir, a son at that, his mother was given a courtyard, which was the only privilege.

When the child was one year old, the maid still hadn't received a name from Emperor Wu An. Disheartened, she took the opportunity of a visit to her family outside the palace to find a Taoist priest to name the child, and she raised the child in peace.

Shen Yu remained in this palace full of flatterers. Because he was handsome and hardworking, he was taken care of by many female officials and aunts. He managed to learn to read and write, and had enough food and clothes to eat and wear.

When Shen Yu was seventeen years old, his mother died of overwork. After burying his mother, he came to Chong'an Palace for the first time and asked respectfully where he should go since he was too old to stay in the palace.

Emperor Wu An was already old at that time, so he was inevitably a little soft-hearted.

Even though he had made mistakes in the past, he was still his biological son, and his features and eyebrows were exactly the same as his.

Therefore, Shen Yu still received the second preferential treatment from his father. He was granted a three-courtyard house in the capital as his residence, and announced to the whole palace that he was the third prince.

However, the good times did not last long. After Shen Yu had lived a peaceful life for five years, Emperor Wu'an died and Shen Cong succeeded him. At the imperial funeral, Shen Yu was exiled to the imperial mausoleum in anger because he still kowtowed to him in a manner that was not up to standard.

Shen Yu's best years were all wasted.

Fortunately, he is a gentle person, one of the few normal people among the Shen family. He never complains about anything and just lives his own life.

So when Shen Zhuo succeeded to the throne and issued a general amnesty, Shen Yu was finally freed.

Afterwards, Shen Zhuo was building a temporary palace. For some reason, he suddenly thought of his adopted younger brother, so he left him in the palace to cultivate flowers, trees and plants. It was a job, but it was humiliating enough.

Having said this, A'ao smiled contemptuously.

Shen Zhuo was indeed keen on humiliating all the relatives around him. For example, he easily agreed to A'an's request to paint pillars in Chong'an Hall, which was also a way of humiliating people that made him feel happy.

Some people are emperors above all others, while others just trim flowers and plants, or work as craftsmen in the Ministry of Works. Whenever Shen Zhuo hears people talking about them after dinner, he feels comfortable.

Seeing that Ah-yi was distracted, Xiao Jin poked her, "What happened next was very natural." She said dejectedly, "I went to the palace many times to find His Majesty, but he had so many beauties that he only kept me once or twice. I was angry, so I went to drink in the pavilion in the courtyard, and then I ran into Shen Yu-ren."

Look at her shy attitude, and how quickly it changes, as ambiguous as a notebook.

"When he was tending to the flowers, I only felt that the profile of his face that I saw was such a beautiful sight, as if it were a jade-like object. How could I not be happy?"

I'm afraid that all the good words I've learned in my life have been used to describe Shen Yuren.

"Then, I did something ridiculous. I took him into the room and...did something like that." Jin Niuniu's eyes looked honest, but her words were wild and unrestrained, contrary to etiquette.

Ah-yi blinked and asked, "How good-looking is my uncle? Is he obsessed with sex?"

Screw the etiquette.

"You!" Jin Niuniu was furious, and more importantly, she didn't expect it.

How could Ah-yi completely disregard the reputation of the Shen family and speak for a concubine who had an affair with her brother-in-law and was pregnant? She was definitely wrong. From what Ah-yi said to her last time, she should have understood that Ah-yi wanted the country to be overthrown more than she did.

Jin Niuniu was confused, especially since she was pregnant. She waved her hands in annoyance, "Why are you so frivolous? You're still a princess."

How is the princess?

Ah'ao straightened up and picked up some formalities, thinking to herself that I had secretly married someone so early and was even wearing mourning clothes to mourn for someone else.

Those in power are unkind and imprudent, and the men are promiscuous, so why do they have to force women like these who can't make decisions for themselves to remain chaste?

Ah-yi had originally planned to think of a way to have Xiao Jin secretly carry out the plan and have the baby first, so that it would be easier to kill Shen Zhuo. But she was so determined that she even picked a good-looking one herself.

It's really rare that her luck and brain have the upper hand like this.

"So, does he like you?" Ah'an refilled her glass of water and asked again.

She didn't dare to say this. After all, she was the one who raped the man when she was drunk. She didn't even know whether the man was married or not. How could she have the nerve to ask this?

Seeing Xiao Jin's hesitation, Ah-yi understood a little. It was not necessary to be a matchmaker, but it was bound to be something that would make Shen Zhuo uncomfortable, so it seemed that they had to be brought together.

"Don't worry, just give birth to the child. Anyway, the number of times you went to the palace is clearly recorded in the daily records, so what are you afraid of?" When Ah'ao said this, she was like a fortune teller on the street, with a boldness that didn't know how to live or die. "Even if the child is born, it will look not much different from your majesty. I will ask someone to find out about my uncle. It would be better if he is still unmarried."

"I'm a concubine!" Xiao Jin's eyes widened, she grabbed Ah's sleeve, and almost cried, "This is a crime that will lead to the extermination of the entire family, and I'll still give birth to her?"

Ah'ao put her arm back and looked at her with calm and indifferent eyes.

"You came to me to talk about this, isn't it because you want to keep this child? Since you have the guts to have sex with someone after drinking, why are you afraid of another crime? It's death anyway."

Xiao Jin's arm that was supporting the table slowly dropped down, and she collapsed on the chair as if she had lost her mind. "You and I have said such treasonous words in front of the Buddha, and we will be punished."

"Oh." Ah-yi nodded nonchalantly. Her beautiful face stood out against the colorful Buddha statue behind her. "This is a Bodhisattva. We invited him here to pray for wealth. Why should we be afraid of retribution?"

What's more, Ah's heart was not very pious when she prayed to God and Buddha, and she didn't believe in retribution.

"What do you want to do? Do you want to die or come and thank me after you become the Queen Mother? It's your choice."

Xiao Jin was startled and stood up suddenly, "You want to rebel!"

Ah-yi leaned on the back of the chair behind her with her arms loosely resting on the armrests. She told him everything but remained calm and composed. "Yes, it's good that you know. You can either die immediately after being exposed by me today, or you can get on this pirate ship of mine and fight for wealth and glory without the possibility of death. You have to choose one of the two to leave my temple."

There wasn't even any rise or fall in the voice, but as the words were about to fall, Ah'an suddenly pulled out a dagger and stabbed it into the table in front of her with a "bang".

The blade is cold and the light is shining.

Ah-yi raised the corner of her mouth, like a judge who decides life and death, and easily controlled Xiao Jinshi, "How about this knife? It was given to me by my adulterer."

As a joke, he blurted out the last secret.

Now, you have to board this pirate ship whether you want to or not. If you don't want to board, you will be tied up and boarded.

After a long while, Xiao Jin used her expensive underground palace dress to wipe away the tears that were about to dry up, but tears quickly welled up in her eyes again, "God, what sin did I commit in my previous life to meet these bastards from your Shen family?"

Ah'ao knew that she had compromised, so she slowly poured her cold cup of tea into the water bowl and added a new cup of warm tea. She exuded the joy of having her conspiracy succeeded.

Things like luck are sometimes indeed very mysterious.

Who says that the bad luck in the past decade or so wasn't a prelude to what is happening right now?

In this way, the charge of treason was naturally found, and even if the court officials rebelled, there was a child who was enthroned as the emperor to give an explanation.

It's not that Ah-yi hadn't thought about taking over the throne, but it's not that easy to manage a country. She had never lived a happy and free life before. She was either being manipulated by others in the deep palace or hiding here and there like a mouse.

The most comfortable and pleasant days were only the more than one year I spent in Kezhou.

It seemed that as long as Hengzhi was by her side, no matter what she did, there would be someone to respond.

Days like this are very good and free.

As for recruiting soldiers and horses, we will make plans after the princess escapes.

Ah'ao held a cup in her hand, rubbing it back and forth.

"I have one more thing to say, and you must be honest with me. I will agree once you tell me." Xiao Jin curled her lips and slumped into the chair resigned to her fate.

"That's all you say."

Her eyes suddenly became eager again, "The adulterer you are talking about, is he Zhao Hou? How did you know him? What is your relationship with Prince Youbei?"

Ah-yi: ...
