As we all know, Zhao Zhenglin’s biological mother was originally a palace maid next to Concubine Liu, and she had a low status. Even if she was lucky enough to be favored, she never gained a position. After giving birth to a dragon son, she never enjoyed wealth and honor, and passed away early.
It can be said that since he was born, almost no one has really cared about him. Even if his biological mother tried her best to give birth to him, she just wanted to climb up. As a result, she not only failed to do so, but instead lost the protection of her old master.
In his biological mother’s opinion, her life was worse than before, so she pushed all the mistakes on him.
Because of his birth, Emperor Qianxing and Concubine Liu were once in a bad mood, so Emperor Qianxing didn’t want to look at him more.
He lost his mother since childhood and was not satisfied with the holy heart, he grew up in various private matters since childhood, which led to his withdrawn, cold, and suspicious personality. When he was twelve years old, he had executed the palace maids around him with his own hands, and he was cruel and ruthless!
His actions were deliberately arranged by those who were interested and spread to Emperor Qianxing’s ears, which made him angry and called him a “rebellious son”.
At that time, An Ruyu was the real proud daughter of heaven. Before she could finish the imperial palace, she was already the most talented woman in the capital. She is admired by thousands of talents in the capital, including the two princes, Duan and King Jin.
An Ruyu often went to the palace to accompany Empress An, and even Concubine Liu would call her into the palace to taste tea and enjoy flowers from time to time.
These two are the most noble women in the Great Zhou Dynasty, but they are all trying their best to win her, wanting to turn her into their daughter-in-law.
No one expected that in that incident, An Ruyu was the only person who spoke for the Seventh Prince.
The girl has a beautiful face and a domineering aura. Even in front of Emperor Qianxing, she speaks without being humble or arrogant, and she is very polite.
She said, “From Ruyu’s perspective, there is a difference between the ruler and the minister. If the ruler wants the minister to die, the minister has to die. Although the seventh prince is young, he is also the heir of the emperor. Those palace ladies dare to slave and bully the master, and they try to turn the black and white into a desperate situation. Their intentions are punished.”
She also said, “Ruyu thinks that the seventh prince’s actions are all right, so I hope the priest will clearly understand!”
Her words caused an uproar.
However, everyone’s shock was not as good as Zhao Zhenglin himself.
From his birth to his twelve years old, he never gained goodwill from those around him.
But this time it was different. There was a beautiful girl she had never met before, who dared to take the blame for the world. She said in front of the emperor that “the seventh prince did nothing wrong.”
From that day on, the three words An Ruyu had been engraved in his heart.
The prince executed a palace maid, which was nothing serious. That matter quietly turned into small things, and small things became small. Afterwards, Duan Wang married her sister An FeihongKing Jin married the daughter of the Xiao family.
An Ruyu, the second daughter of the Duke of Jingguo Mansion, known as the No. 1 talented woman in the capital, can be regarded as falling from the clouds overnight.
The real reason is rarely known.
An Ruyu no longer has the opportunity to enter and exit the palace, and rarely appears in tea parties and poetry parties of noble girls. She has never recovered and gradually faded out of people’s sight.
In comparison, this matter is an important turning point for Zhao Zhenglin. Afterwards, he was sent out of the palace to build a mansion alone, which was also regarded as the youngest prince in the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty to build a mansion alone.
Soon, he was ordered to go to southern Xinjiang and was allowed to return to Beijing only three years later. He was not allowed to return to Beijing without an imperial edict.
In the same year, he was far away in southern Xinjiang and heard that An Ruyu married Saburo, a nerd from the Xiao family.
Zhao Zhenglin knew that she was unhappy, and that a large part of her unhappiness was implicated by herself, so he was once willing to do everything for her that could make her feel happy.
That night, Qingsong Garden in Prince Cheng’s Mansion was brightly lit, as bright as daytime.
